An Honored Sage.
Professor Thomas Condou, department
of geology, University of Oregon, has
celebrated his 75th birthday. This emi
nent scientist has passed his three score
years and ten mile post; and, at an aire
when most men retire from life's ac
tivities, he remains in the ram s of
earnest truth seekers and investigators.
He is one of the few on whom age seems
not to stanin the marks of decay; to
whom advancing years brine not dim
ness of mental visiou; who are virile
nnd vigorous in proportion to the length
of life. Professor Condon is a student
of nature, not a pedaut w'ho lives alone
among boobs and feeds only on the
mental fruit cultivated by others. He
Las the ability to read "sermons in
stones" see "books in running brooks,"
and find "good in everything." As a
geologist of eminence, a bit of rock tells
to him a story nf mighty forces once
exerted; a stratum in the earth's for
mation speaks eloquently of the ages
during which our globe was being
formed; a glimpse of Nature's product
is a sentence from a language that the
Almighty speaks to the one who goes
"near to Nature's heart." One who
studies Nature cannot crow old. Her
voices speak encouragingly ; its hidden
secrets entice ever onward to further
discovery of her true spirit ; familiarity
with her works purifies and strengthens.
Mature known and understood renews
-the youth and uplifts the mind of men.
These are not effusive words of empty
compliment, They are sincere tributes
to one who deserves them. Professor
Condon is honored by the people of
Oregon, whom be has lone served as a
teacher of the wonderful science of
geology; and, where ?er genuine scholar
ship is known, tiie name of Thomas
Condon gss coupled with merit and
true scientific research. East Ore

Some Wood Can lie Sawed as Tliln an
Writing I'aper.
While the finer and thinner veneers
of costly woods are sliced tangentially
iroru the side of the log, there are
woodfc that cannot Ik- cut this way no
amount of boiling or steaming render
ing it possible to cut them without
breaking down the tissue.-? to such an
extent as to destroy their surfaces for
polishing while others, says Hard--ivood,
becoming discolored from
steaming or boiling, and being too hard
to cut otherwise, have to be .sawed.
The fine-toothed, thin-gauge circulnr,
with flanged center, is the favorite for
cutting nil ordinary veneers thicker
than 30 to the inch; 20 to the inch is the
thickness moat commonly used for cab
inet work and ftniwhing, but much
thinner it; used in the case of rare und
costly woods, or rare abnormal or acci
dental figures, as in the east- of burls.
Some woods have to be cut much thick
er, being unable to bear handling when
too thin; genuine ebony, the only fine
really jet-black wood known, and large
enough to be of any use, will not stand
sawing much below one-fourth of an
inch in thickness, owing to the extreme
brittleness or want of cohesion, but
there are other woods that can be cut as
thin as writing paper and still be
bandied in lanre sheets. Other woods
there are that will lose their fine color
on exposure to the atmosphere, espe
cially a smoky one; thexe are cut only
-when immediately wanted, and are
litpt covered until the finishers can put
tm a protective coat of some prepara

CREASING T.-i mNTS.
The Turk Khluorero. Too. Ccmted Twice
a Year with Ncut.-Woot Oil.
Twice a year the elephants and the
rhinoceros in the Central park menag
erie get a eoatiugo: neatafoot oil. which
is thoroughly rubbed in v. ;th th.- palm
of the hand. The oiling ai.d Ik r.cnip
nlation ojeause the skin, remove the
dead skin, and open the pores, freshen
the animals tip, and improve their
health, and they seem to like the proc
ess. The oilintr is done only in the
spring and summer; if done in the win
ter the animals would be likely to take
cold from it.
The rhinoceros at the park is in good
condition and lively, and rather frisky
for so big a brute. Sometimes it steps
about with a step that is very much like
a dancing step, and likely to surprise
one who sees it for the first time and has
been accustomed to regard the rhinoc
eros as an animal always slow and lum
bering in its movements. When the
rhinoceros' cage is cleaned out, which
is done daily, the keeper first attracts
the rrvat creature- to one side with a
tempting mess of food. Then he slips
a noose cf rope over the animal's horn
and settles it down around the neck
and makes the other end fast around
a bar or wo of the elephant's cage ad
joining. This is done to keep the rhi
noceros from pitching into the keeper
if it should Take a notice.
The 'nine precaution is taken when
the rbinofpro? is oiled. The elephants,
however, kneel at the word of com
mand. It :s not necessary to plant a
ladder againsrt them in order to reach
the upper part of their sides in rubbing
in the oil.
TAUGHT HER A LESSON.
She rrobably Found a Xcir l'lace lor
Uldinc the Key.
The other day a very estimable lady
came to town to do a Vttle shopping,
says the Atianta Constitution. Of
course the key was put under the door
mat so that her son. whom she expected
to return before her, could get in. In
her absence a tramp, who had been
hanging around the place a number of
days and had caught on. boldly went
into the house, got some of the choicest
viands out of the pantry, put them on
the table and pitched,' n. He also found
a bottle of wine that revived his spirits, j
He did not expect anyone there for a j
number of hours and so he took it easy. I
In the meantime the lady of the house
having finished her shopping returned
home and, seeing the front door un
locked, expected to find her son inside.
Imagine her horror when she opened
the dining-room door and saw sitting
at her table the rustiest-looking tramp
that ever vied with his companions in
accumulating dirt on bis epidermis.
The lady was dumfounded. In the si
lence that followed the tramp coolly re
marked: "Madam, I shall become
scarce, now. ez I've eaten enuff. All
I kin cive yer back fer this good meal
and wat I want ter say ter yer is that
yer ought to find a new hidin' place fer
yer key. I won't charce yer nothin' for
this advice." With that the tramp de
parted. BLIND, BUT TOO GAY.
Unfortunate Who Eloped with Another
SlRhtliM Man's WKe.
The outdoor poor department gives
annually a small sum of money to those
afflicted v ith blindness, says the New
York World.
"I've come for my pension, sir," said
an applieuut lecently to one of Superin
tendent li'ake's assistants.
"There's no money here for you," re
plied the assistant. "And let me give
you a tip, you won't get another dollar
from this department."
"Oh. my, oh, my; do not say that,"
pleaded the blind man. "I'm poor;
you'll admit that, won't you?"
"Yes; I think you are."
"And blind, too; isn't that so?"
"Yes, you are both poor and blind."
"Then hand over the money, please,"
demanded the man, "because under the
law I come under both conditions."
But the clerk shook his head in the
negative.
"You know well enough why you
can't get the money," he said, "th re
port against you reads that you are not
respectable."
"Nov 1 know what you are drivintr
at," sightd the blind man, "bur what
has that to do with It?"
"Everything." was the reply. "A man
who elopes with another blind man'fi
wife is not fit to havr- a pension."
And that settled it.
