I'.iicIk'h Won't Reply to Smith.
University of Oregon. Eugene, Ore.
Instructor Gustav W. Buchen. as
sistant secretary of the Oregon High
School Debating league, has received
a letter from W. S. Smith, principal
of the Brownsville school, a duplicate
of which appeared In Saturday's Ore
gonian, questioning the purpose and
benefits of the league. Mr. Buchen
Is inclined to ignore the communi
cation and indicates that he deems It
entirely uncalled for. .

farmer, residing a few miles from this
place, was agreeably surprised Tues
day morning when, upon going to - Is
barnyard, he discovered that his Jer
sey cow had given birth to three
calves during Monday night.
The calves and their mother are
well and healthy and doing well.
While the calves are wobbly on their

the University Glee Club, William Lai,

bass. T5 th men have exceptionally
fine voices. The wealth of good mu
sical material presented this year at
the tryouts fir positions on the club
makes it possible to have twenty men

teen as heretofore Even with this
laree number many men who easily
could have made the club last year or
in any preceding year were unable to
secure a rlace in the recent tryout.

cities in the state each year, and will
this year make the trip Into eastern
Oregon during the holidays.
NEWS AND VIEWS
FROM OVER THE SEA
Lor Jon, Oct. 4. It was only a fen
years ago that a London newspaper
printed a story about "President Fair
banks of the United States" and
Unite! States Senator Roosevelt,"
with ail the confidence of an authori
tative correspondent, without having
the error noticed by any of its Lon
don contemporaries. To show what
progress has been made even among
the newspapers in acquainting them
selves with American affairs it is no
unusual thing to pick up a London
newspaper and see so local a thing
as an American primary contest dis
cussed with precision and. of course,
auch partiality as may be expected,
considering the paper's viewpoint. The
American elections are arousing no
end of Interest in Europe and one
of the most discussed of recent events
Is the hue and cry made by certain
American papers over the victory of
Caleb Powers In his race for congress,
aftor ho huA anent eight vears in pris
on charged with complicity In the j
assassination of Governor ooebel 01
Kentucky. In European parliaments,
the man who has been in prison is not
o unfamiliar a figure as in the Unit
ed States. But. it Is a question usual
ly of political crime. John Burns, the
labor member of the British cabinet,
makes no concealment of the fact that
he once wore "the king's uniform"
as he puts it, in Pentonville gaol for
leading the mob with a red flag in
the Trafalgar Square rloU of 1884.
In Germany there are plenty of so
cial democratic leaders who have suf
fered for their convictions or the vi
olence of their methods of agitation
Should any member of the royal
family be stricken seriously Just now
It would be difflclult to get a physi
cian immediately. For the first time
In years, nearly all of the great sur
geons and physicians of London are
away from the city, attending the In
ternational Conference of Physicians
ad Surgeons, which opened In St.
Petersburg yesterday. Of course their
private sanltoriuras and offices have
been left In charge of expert assist
ance who could handle any case with
precision until the arrival of their
chiefs, but the absence of so many
prominent doctors gi-es a new Idea of
the Importance of the St. Petersburg
meeting which is being attended by
representatives of over twenty-two
countries.
Although members of the royal
family are still refraining from tak
ing part in any public affairs except
when officially compelled to do so,
the queen mother is Interested In sev
eral private concerts and charity fetes
being organized in aid of the cholera
sufferers of Russia. That the list of
victims has reached over 100 000 Is
further proof of the Inability of sci
ence to cope with this dread disease.
Many of the world's leading physi
cians who are attending the St. Pe
tersburg conference have expressed
a desire to go Into the Infected sec
tions to study the disease at close
range, and permission will probably
be granted them by officers of the
czar to do so.
The hansom cab Is rapidly disap
pearing from the streets of London.
It cannot compete with the taxicab.
The hansom cabman is bewailing his
fate, or else learning to drive a taxi
cab. . The hansom cabmen report that
this summer they would have earned
little save for the fact that American
women used the hansom for shop
ping. The hansom charge is 60 cents
an hour, while the taxicab Is 18 cents
a mile. The waiting time for taxis
averages about J 1.25 an hour, which
mak"s the hansom a cheaper vehicle
for shopping. It is predicted that the
hansom will completely have disap
peared from the streets within anoth
er year. '
Hunting elephants for their Ivory Is
a profitable business. John Boyos. a
noted African hunter and explorer,
who gave Colonel Roosevelt the tip
where to find the white rhinoceros,
haa returned to London after eight
years in Africa. In the Congo in that
period he obtained ivory worth $50,
000. For several years Mr. Boyes
was king of a tribe called the Kaker
us and commander of their army of
5000. When the British govern
ment learned he was king he had to
leave the tribe.
"ChanteHer" may have Its no?o put
out of Joint by the play which Slgnor
Gabrillo d'Annuzie threatens to write.
Instead of a barnyard arama the poet
means to have a deep sea tragedy,
with mermaids and tritons and fishes
that swim In the depth of the ocean.
Crabs, lobsters, starfish, octopi and
whales may be leading characters. At
any rate, D'Annunzlo Is full of his
new idea and means to get to work
on it at once. Mr. Charles Frohman
has already made arrangements to
produce the tragedy In London and
will have the sole American rights of
the play, also.
The scarcest of all British postage
stamps Is the two-penny stamp of a
new design which was ready for Issue
at the time of King Edward's death.
It was not placed on sale and the post
master general has decided to destroy
the entire stock with the exception
of a few specimens for the king's al
bum, the British Museum and the Post
Office Museum at St. Martin's le
Grand.
Sables are going up In price, which
will be bad news to women t fash
ion since it has been decreed that
furs must be worn to great extent dur
ing the coming winter,. The British
consul in St. Petersburg. Mr. Grovo,
roports that all fur bearing animals,
especially sables, are becoming few
er each year. Hunters give It as
their opinion, he explains that this
decrease Is due to the fact that the
growth of the timber trade has
brought more workmen to the north
and the sable has moved Into more
remote districts. In some districts the
sable has already disappeared entire
ly. It appears that sables are caught
in large numbers in early autumn and
spring, when the animals are moult
ing and the females are with young.
This system, or want of system, is at
once useless and ruinous and in view
of this the Imperial government is to
be approached on the subject of in
stituting a close time for fur bearing
animals in general.
MYSTERIOUS MONSTER
SCARES PENNSYLVAXUXS
Tork, Pa. Resembling a kangaroo
but with the ferocity of a panther,
and all the mystery of the famous
"Jersey devil," an unidentified, wild
beast is terrorizing the farming sec
tion around Springrale. Nobody ven.
tures out at night except In the com
pany of others, and then armed with
shotguns and riflos. That the mys
terious beast is possessed of great
strength and ferocity was attested by
its attack upon a bloodhound owned
in the neighborhood. The hound was
found mangled In a most horrible
manner near the "devil's" haunt.
William Smu?k first saw the ani
mal In a woodland near his farm, and
describes It as beinr about the size of
a large dog, but with legs shaped like
those of a kangaroo. Others who saw
it claim that it htm quills like a por
cupine. '

Ulalit 'to Save Tree Won.
Walla Walla. Wash. Oscar In
gram, who has been fighting to pre
vent the city from cutting down the
big cottonwood tree that shades his
hous, has won. ind the tree will be
left In the middle of P.ellevue avenue
until he Is ready to cut It down. Judge
Brents of the superior court. has
handed down a permanent injunction
restraining the city from cutting down
the tree when the street Is graded.
Ingram based his fight on the con
tention that when he donated the land
for a county road he reserved the tree.
When It became a city street the
council decided to cut the tree down
and paid no attention to his petition.
He carried the matter Into court and
won. The tree shades Mr. Ingram's
house and ho wants It left until the
shade trees In his yard are big enough
to take its place.

The Famous JSsi1
Is the Lamp of Real Beauty
because it gives the best light of all
lamps. The Rayo gives a white, soft,
mellow, diffused light-easy on the
eye because it cannot flicker. You
can use your eyes as long as you wish
under the Rayo light without strain.
The Rayo Lamp Is low-priced, and
even though you pay $5, $10 or $20 for
other lamps, you may get more expensive
decorations but you cannot get a better
light than the low-priced Rayo gives. A
strong, durable shade-holder holds the
shade on firm and true. This season's
new burner adds strength and appearance.
