BRIEF MENTION.
Leaves From the Notebook of Chronicle
Reporters.
HER PECULIARITIES.
How doth the little blushing maid
Emplov each Bhining hour!
Doth she' in sober thought arrayed,
Learn knowledge that is power?
Say, doth she mend her father's socks,
And cook his evening meal?
And doth she make her own sweet. frocks,
With adolescent zeal?
Not much ; not much. She knows it all ;
She doth not need to learn.
She thinks of naught but rout or ball,
And which youth will be her'n.
She hustles for a diamond ring;
She cares not for her dad.
She doeB not make him anything
Except she makes him mad.

The first meeting of the young people's
whist club was held last evening at
Schanno's hall, entertained by Miss
Story. The club is composed of twenty
- couples, and as the hall has a fine floor
for dancing, which will no doubt occupy
part of the evening, the club will of
course be a source of great enjoyment to
its members. '
Mr. Brooks informs us that the report
from the weather bureau this afternoon
shows that the snow storm which began

miles, but the clouds are from the west.

to 6tand a bard winter.
Quite a number of immigrants arrived

letting go all at once, and sending
down as . pretty a lot of Mother Goose's
feathers as one wonld care to see. -

The Markets.
The wheat market is unchanged.
though apparently a trifle stronger.
Bradstreets for Dec, 1st, has the following:
A stimulating influence of a purely
statistical nature is the decrease of
2,008,000 bushels of wheat in the quan-
ty afloat for and in store in Europe last
ek, thus nearly, though not quite,
OMercomincr the increase nf 2 12S 000
biBhels of wheat available in the United
States and Candada last week. "F.-rnnrtn
wheat (and flour as wheat), both
asts, amount to 2,667,000 bushels this
week against 3,312,000 bushels last week,
2,400,000 . bushels in . the week one. year
ago, 4,533,000 bushels in the last week of
November of 1892, and as compared with
5.662,000 bushels in that week in 1891.
Data presented by Bradstreet's point to
the United States having exported about
65,000,000 bushels of wheat (flour in
cluded), since June 30th, and to our
haying 85,000,000 bushels available for
export during the next seven months,
notwithstanding the alleged excessive
home demand this year.
For the week ending December 1st,
the available supplies of wheat in the
United States and Canada east of the
Rocky mountains, wheat increase 898,
000 bushels; west of the Rocky mount
ains, wheat decrease, 297,000 bushels;
afloat for and in Europe, wheat increase
424,000 bushels ; increases of wheat of
note were in Chicago private elevators
and western interior elevators."
The vegetable market is well supplied
with everything belbnging to the
Beason, and at prices that permit their
being used by all. We noticed quite a
lot of nice pop corn brought in Saturday
that was sold at 5 cents per pound for
the lot. There are no material changes
in prices since last week.
May
Man Conduct His Business
He Pleases?
As
A great many valuable lessons will be
learned from the Chicago strike. While
Btudying its phases, its origin, its course
and its close, two very far-reaching
ethical-economic questions have been
constantly in my mind. These are
1. Shall a man conduct his own
business in his own way?
2. Shall the savings of labor be con
sidered a reserve from which labor must
draw, in order to enable it to subsist
during periods of depression or of adver
sity, while the reserve of capital is kept
practically intact under like circum
stances, or, if drawn upon at all, in less
measure than labor draws on its savings?
Society baa long since answered these
questions in some important particulars'.
It says to the property-owner, the man
ufacturer: "You. must not so conduct
your business as to injure the property
of your neighbor, nor must you conduct
your business in such a way as to injure
the health of your neighbor. No. prop
erty owner can do anything that will
interfere -with the rights and privileges
of his neighbor, whether these rights
and privileges come : under the .head
oi -ngnt io ?rreeaom rrom injury
to property, or . the privilege of . liv
ing without damage to healthJ" But
the question which is much more far-
reaching, and which will inevitably be
answered by society, relates to-condi
tion of men rather than to their material
surroundings and this question is
Shall a man or a corporation . who
does not, or is not able to, conduct his or
its affairs so as to avoid public disturb
ance, obstruction of trade, loss of wages,
or the lowering of the standard of living,
be free from the interference of society?"
Forum.
Sorry That She Spoke.
"It is curious how people ran make
mistakes. A short time ago a young
lady, not very many miles from Eugene,
was troubled with a boil about three:
fourths of an inch .above the elbow of
ber knee. It grew so bad that she
thought it neceseary to call a doctor,
but as the family doctor was a single
man she shuddered at the thought of
showing the boil to him. The mother
suggested one of "the other resident phy
sicians, who were all old married 'men,
but the father kicked. He said it would
ruke the young doctor mad. The
young lady saw a way out of the diffi-
cultv." She reported that one of those
traveling doctors -who had been coming
to town regularly for aklong time was in
town, and she saw him pass with his
medicine case' that afternoon. It was
agreed that they would watch for the
specialist and call him in. A sharp
lookout was kept, and suie enough
along he came. He was called in and
the young lady very modestly exhibited
her.boil. The stranger, rather curiously
for a doctor, looked at it and remarked :
"Well, that's too bad." "Well, doctor,
what shall I do?" The stranger tum
bled. He smiled a smile and replied :
"Get a doctor; I'm a piano tuner.'

Said Nothing. Neither Sawed He.
The city marshal had one indiscreet
gentleman in tow this morning, and
allowed him to exercise himself at the
city woodpile, for a little while, having
him . leave his coat in the office in the
meanwhile. . Being left to himself for a
few moments the gentleman said nothing,
neither did he saw wood, but looking at
the case .from all sides he concluded he
preferred the wild freedom of the brake
beam, and ' the : free air of : the - Wasco
mountains to - the ignoble contact of the
bucksaw ; and the home comforts of the
City jail. . Hence scorning the city's hos
pitality, turning in loathing from the
woodpile, he dropped a tear or two as he
thought . how the good marshal's heart
would bleed at his breech of faith, and
fled. . From the whenceness of the
preserit into the misty wherefore of the
future he slipped and was lost.- And he
never returned. -
