The favorite resort of Dickens, "The Old Curiosity Shop," in London, is now being torn down to make room for more modern buildings. Mr. F. W. Wilson's trunk got into the uregonianall right.

For some time they have been a thing of terror to those who were compelled to pass over them. The regular meeting of the Oregon legislature, any and all houses, will take place at the Vogt Tuesday night. Feb. 23d, at 8 o'clock. This is going to be an occasion that will be long remembered, and if yon miss it you will always have something to regret. Monday being the anniversary ot the birth of the father of this country, no school will be held on 'that day. Of course the school children are all mourning because this is so, but as they can't help it, they will submit as cheer fully as possible. Tuesday evening Feb. 23d, the follow ing program will be given at the Congre gational church: First, song. Debate, "Eesolved, That Washington as a Mili tary Leader Was Superior to Napoleon." The affirmative will be supported by Walter Reavie, Violet Kent, Ann Mann and Charles Campbell ; the negative by Edward Baldwin, Elizabeth Bonn, Clyde Riddell and Martha Schooling. Closing song. J. L. Kelley has three carloads of cat tle and Mr. Willard of La Grande two of cattle and one of hogs, which will all be Bhipped in the morning to Omaha. Thera has been an unusual demand for cattle this winter, and the country has been pretty well stripped of them. Those mentioned are being taken back as feeders, and will help use up some of the cheap corn of Nebraska before they are killed. The Salvation Army band was out this afternoon with a banner containing an enlarged photograph of hie eatauic majesty, the devil. The original photo graph is from a selection owned by Jonathan Bourne, and is s.iid to be true to nature. Whether the 'army has switched, or whether the winged picture of the master of sheol is only to show the gentleman, who Is to be given his duo, is one of the tbing3 we know not. The' man with the big drum seemed to be immensely proud ot the banner and cast affectionate glances at the photo, thereon. In a lecture before the winter school for the farmers at the agricultural col lege at Pullman last Friday, Professor O. V. Piper, of the college, announced that the experiments made with ground squirrels at.tbe experiment station last year had resulted in the discovery of a disease which it is thought can be intro duced successfully among the animals in their native state and pronlses to solve the sqslrrel problem. The dlsessegerms were secured first from srjecjen of dis eased squirrels sent to the" station dur ing the summer fross the western part of the county, where the disease killed the animals off by the thousands in June and July. A Water Haul. Our reporter took in tho East End this morning, ausual, and found even that generallypbusy part of town stagnant. The warehouses are doing but little, just waiting for the wool sea son to commence. The stockyards had five carloads stock of cattle for shipment, and that was all ; Joe Worsley was good natured as usual; Murcbie was running buggies out on the sidewalk to give his place the appearance of busi ness ; Collins was smiling a retrospective smile as he thought of Fred Wilson's trunk; Skibbe was taking a sun bath; Saltmarshe, ditto ; Justice Filloon was sitting on the small of his back with his feet on the stovepipe.. At the depot Ross was checking up papers, and Miss Enright demureily cogitating on railroad officials, special cars, cattle trains and other evidences of approaching spring. Ed. Howell was insisting that he did not ornament the trunk yesterday, and that a certain pretty, 3-oung lady who answers to the name of May did. At Pease & Mays the work of remodeling was going on, the immense store being still littered up, but doing business as usual, and so the weary scribe drifted home as. barren of items as a Polled Angus steer of horns, and hence tbie item. Be Kills Cats In the l'ulplt. The announcement that the Rev. W. L. Laufman, assisted by Dr. C. E. Miller, would kill two cats in the pulpit of the Metbodift church at Cadillac, Mich., to illustrate Laufrnan's sermon on tobacco, was sufficient to pack the church. Prominent on the pulpit were packages (of fin ecu t and plug chewing tobacco. Holding alott a pound plug of tobacco, he assured his hearers that it contained enough grains of nicotiue to kill 200 men. Then the cats were brought up by Dr. Miller. An assistant held them while the doctor administered the nicotine. The first one died in a minute and a halt, while the attendant held it, and three drops of nicotine were i placed on its tongue, iiie nexr. cat, a 'large one, was administered .only two drops, the purpose being to illustrue the sickness and spasms which tbe firet dose of tobacco creates. A second dose of two drops and in a minute and a quarter the cat was dead. The Rev. Laufman announced that on next Bun day )ie would kill some more cats to ehow the effect of alcohol, and also have on exhibition the stomach of a drunkard.

France The young crops are now re ported to be under a thick covering of snow, which assures ntlrquntc protection to tho plants. Some seeding was done before tho snow came, and farmers are said to be preparing to sow freely in tho spring. Argentina Crop news is not more favorable, and peoplo take even gloomier views as to tho Santa Fe harvest. Mail advices received yesterday mention that the crops in tho south of Buonos Ayrcs were suffering from drouth, and the cable of Saturday reported drouth to be causing much damage to corn. Uruguay Mail advices still roport swarms of locusts, and the outlook for tho corn crop must bo considered gloomy. Chili Crop prospects aro again re ported to be quite favorable. India Fair rains reported in tho Pun juub, where the moisture will be of much use, by enabling growers to continue seeding. Condition of standing crops fair to good in Central provinces, Behar, and Northwest provinces, except in -Bun-delkband districts. In the affected dis tricts of Bombay, the crops are suffering from want of rain. This report is from the last telegram of the viceroy. Russia A recent report to the Daily News from Obessa more than confirmed the bad accounts of crop conditions in many of the Southern governments mentioned in our last. The report re ferred to states that oyer 2,000,000 acres of winter. wheat have been de stroyed in Pondolia and BeBsaradia, and the same conditions, only less wide spread and disastrous, obtain through out the majority of the Southern govern ments. This is certainly the most pessi mistic report we have yet seen, though otherB have been pretty bad. On the other hand, our correspondent at Theodosta wrote la6t week that the out look was pretty satisfactory in his dis trict, though nothing could be said as to wide areas of the Steppe.
