this morning,
While returning from Prineville last
week near the Mays' ranch, about a
mile and a half from Antelope, Theo
dore Liebe and SatnThurman saw some
thing near the road at the fool of a
canyon, which they thought nt first to
be a rabbit. Tiieodore sallied fortii with
his rifle and as it 'started to climb a
telephone pole near by, he discovered
he had more dangerous game to deal
with in the shape of a wild cat. He
however, floored it, and it was found to
be about half grown. Bilnging it home
he had Bert Campbell, the taxadermiet,
fix him up, and he now occupies a place in
Harry Liebe'a window on Second street.
It is a vicious looking little fellow, and
surely Antelope has not many such
prowling around so near civilization.
Meteoric photograpy will be exten
sively employed to make a permanent
record of the great periodic star showing
due on the nights of November 13th, 14th,
and 15th. -The maximum display of
meteorsemanating from theconstellation
Leo comes three times in a century, and
1S99 is one of the years. Photographic
plates are more sensitive than the eye to
all celestial movements, and without the
aid of photography some of the satellities
and asteroids would still be undiscovered.
An ordinary camera with a lens from one
inch to three inches in diameter, simply
mounted to be shifted in position and
pointed at the constellation from which
tho meteors radiate, will give good
results in the hands of un amateur.
Exposures may last from forty to sixty
minutes. The constellation rises after
midnight, and observations should be
continued till near sunrise.

returned from La Grande, where he at

successful he has attended on the coast.

160 members registered and all seemed
so alive and interested in the work. A
professional elocutionist took part in
the programs and a splondiil quartet
furnished music. Statu Supt. Ackerman,
Supt. Rigler, of the Portland schools.
Prof. Strong, of tho state university, and
Prof. Campbell, of ttie Monmouth Nor
mal, weio present from west of the
mountains. It is to bo regretted that
