Dr. Lannerburg arrived home a few
days ago and can now be found in his

The Regulator came up last night in
stead of the Dalles City. This change
was made so the Regulator could be in
Portland Sunday and wash her boilers
out. There is plenty cf water here for
that purpose, but the mains do not
reach the river.

It was a strange fatality that caused
the carrier pigeon that recently made
the flight from Skaguay to Portland,
1200 miles, to strike the telephone wires
and injure its wings, just when it had
accomplished its long journey. Its fall
is emblematical of that of many who
are now struggling with the mountain
passes in their effort to reach the gold
fields.
The Southern, Pacific passenger de
partment has issued a handsome little
pamphlet entitled ."The Sportsman at

od and gun and hie away to that winter

At-
Arville has been at St. Vincent's hospi
tal for some time having his wound
treated. It will be remembered that a
few weeks ago, in shooting at birds, the
gun exploded, the pieces tearing a por

ating bis face. The wound is healing
rapidly and he will soon he all right
again, though he will carry an ugly ee
A team has been engaged today in
hauling to the river the big shade trees
cut down from in front of the French
properties. It seems almost wicked to
cut the big poplars down and yet it has
become necessary on account of tbeir
proclivity to send- their roots into the
sewers, and to lift up the sidewalks.
And yet in spite of this property, owners
continue to set them out, simply on ac
count of their quick growth. Hereafter
only maples pr trees of that kind should
be planted. It takes longer for them to
grow, but once grown they do not have
to be cut down.
Sunday afternoon as G. W. Aldricb
and his son, Edward, proprietors of the
Champion flouring mill, of Lebanon,
were attempting to stop a leak in one
side of their warehouse, the whole end
of the warehouse gave way, completely
covering them. The alarm soon spread
over the town and in a few minutes a
large crowd of men were at work with
shovels removing the immense pile of
wheat that covered them. The men
were buried under the wheat nearly an
hour, and when they were shoveled out
the father was dead. The son was
badly bruised, but it i9 thought he is not
seriously injured.
Prosperity has, in a measure, struck
the Southern Oregon Comoanv. and
long with it Coos county's exechequer,
uch to the pleasure of the taxpayers
general, says the Coquille City Bulle-
n. K. hi. fchine, secretary, paid nearly
$11,000 in cash to Sheriff Gage, Wednes
day, such amount being due as the 1895
and 1896 taxes of the corporation. There
yet remains a balance in favor of the
county, aggregating $13,000 on assess
ments of 1893 or 1894, or undTer Assessor
James' regime of office. These valua
tions are still under question in the
courts, and it is not at all likely that an
early settlement will be reached.
.The changing of the assessment plan
by the A. O. IT. W. at the last meeting
j of the grand lodge has caused consider
able comment among members of the
order. Many were at first disposed to
sever their connection with the order
and some did so, thinking they would be
assessed higher. The more thoughtful
ones took the position that they would
not climb any mountains until . they
came to them, and so determined to stay
and see what the plan would do when
put to a working test. Most of those
who quit have signified their intention
of going back, and this is the wise thing
for them to do.
Many new students will enter the col
leges of Oregon this fail. Many of them
will have to go some distance from home
and among total strangers, but the
Toung Men's and .Young Women's
Christian Associations in all these in
stitutions will give them not only a warm
welcome, but also all the assistance in
their power. To this end they , issue in
the larger colleges, hand books contain
ing brief and indispensible information
concerning the college and its vicinity.
They also eetabli&h information bureaus
where aid in securing rooms and board
is given free. Then in order to remove
whatever feeling of . homesickness
may still linger in the Freshman's
breast, a reception is given to the whole
entering class bv the two associations.
No obligation is incurred by accepting
these services, but all men and women
who' believe in the value and need of
Christian work for students by students
are given an opportunity to join one of
the associations. Their principal lines
of work are Bible and miesion classes
and regular religious meetings.
The college Christian associations are
now a potent factor in the life of the
colleges of the United States, numbering
as they do over 800, with a membership
cf over 45,000. The organization is
spreading rapidly through the univer
sities of Europe, China, Japan, India
and even Brazil. Thus the associations
in Oregon are but a part of a growing
international movement, wisely directed
and heartily supported.
In order to secure the hand book or
obtain information, either about the
University of Oregon or the local asso
ciations, parents, pastors and prospect
ive etudents, should address one of the
following associations: Y. M. C. A., or
Y. W. C. A., Eugene, Or.
The high standing of these beneficent
organizations is evinced by the follow
ing: I cordially commend to all who are
interested' in education the labors of
the Young Men's and Young Women's
Christian Associations, in behalf of
students. In this university they have
been a conservative and regenerating
force' of the highest value. They are
worthy of all confidence -and their zeal
deserves the warmest praise.

as honest as skilled labor and money can produce. If the parts
now in malleable iron were (as in other eo-called steel ranges)
made of cast iron, the price could be greatly reduced ; but the
MAJESTIC is not made, with a view to furnishing extra

Under the law of California a wife can
e compelled to support her husband,
s the Boston Woman's Journal. This
oint was established recently by a de-
sion rendered by Justice Temple, of
the supreme court, concurred in by Jus-
ices Henshaw and Van Fleet and Chief
Justice Beatty. The circumstances on
which this decision was made were peculiar.
In Los Angeles county there live an
aged couple named Livingston. The
wife, Mrs. Mary A. Livingston, has
reached the mature age of 70 years, and
her husband, Samuel W., is even older
than his wife. In fact, he is so aged as
to be infirm and unable tr- support him
self. Some time ago the wife deserted
her husband, and he was left as helpless
as a baby. ' In their more prosperous
days the wife always carried the bank
book, and, furthermore, she had money
in her own right.
After the old woman deserted the old
man he sued her for maintenance, and
won the suit, the supreme court of Los
Angeles county ordering Mrs. Livingston
to pay her Husband a monthly allow
ance of $24. She at once transferred all
of her property to her daughter, so as to
avoid the execution of the order. She
was cited to appear and show cause why
she should not be punished for con
tempt. The contempt proceedings re
suited in her being committed to prison
until such a time as she would comply
with the order of the court. From that
judgment she appealed to the supreme
court, and the judgment has been
affirmed.

"I just think it's shameful the way
that girl spits slang," said an Ionia girl
to a friend. "My ! if I twirled my
talker as she does, my blooming old dad
would tan my duds until the dust was
thicker than flies in flv time." "You
betcher brass, and serve yon right," re
plied the other young lady. "My par
ents are sunflowers of the same hue, and
if I should make a raw crack in my con
versation they'd thrash the rosy cussed
ness out of my angelic anatomy quicker
than chain lightning." And just then
they proceeded to suck the juice of a
lemon through a stick of candy. Kala
