It is reported that twenty-eight students have been forced to leave the University of Oregon at Eugene on account of failing to pass the re quired number of semester hours. Fifteen of these are freshmen. The severe requirements of the high student standards set by the faculty are responsible for the failure to pass examinations. Thus it will be seen that the university expects the stu dents which go out from its halls to know something, and it is right they should. Luther O. Lighthall, a laborer 74 years of age, and a resident of Ten Mt!e for the past sixteen years, was brought to Marshfield yesterday in a dying condition. He was taken to M ercy hospital at North Bend where he died at a late hour la st night Heart failure and general debility, due to his advanced age were the cause of his death.

Bascom, proprietor of the Bascom Cafe, has made friends with hundreds of the gulls that are so plentiful around the Bay during the winter months when the hard storms of the coast drive them inland for food. Every day he throw« them the scraps from the restaurant on the bank back of the castle building overlooking the bay. There are usually"» a score or two of them waiting his arrival and with his ap pearance hundreds tl >ck to the place to get their meal. The screeching and fighting over the food is amusMi to the old-timers as well as to the new comers. Mr. Bascom is of the opinion that if thes* birds could be taught to lav hens eggs they would be a paying investment.—Coos Bay Harbor. Under th» Rule of the Napoleon. Don’t Worry, Third Never was there so pleasure loving and so easy going a court, and seldom has there been one which was exter nally so splendid. The emperor spent money like water ami thereby produc ed a prosperity for the time ami with it popularity for th«* government. Hundreds of millions were lavished upon Paris, much of It being wasted, yet none the less with th«* result that the city really deserved Its title hl rill«* lutniere.

These were the days when it was s-ild that good Americans «v'ten they die go to Paris. The em peror conferred distinction by recog nizing any foreigner. The empress set the fashions for the world. It was all a sham, but It was thoroughly mag nificent In Its way. It can best be understoml at present by reading Zo la’s early novels, by recalling some chapters of Datidet’a "la* Nabab” and by remembering Jacques Offenbach, whose opera bouffe was th«* most char acteristic production of an empire which itself was bouffe. That shal low and yet catchy musk* was a tonal sneer. Every libretto was a mock at the old time virtues of chastity and honor and courage.—Harry Thurston Peck In Bookman.

A curious letter Is published, written by hint when his "Norma” was hissed nt the first representation: “I have just returned from the Scala. Would you believe It? ‘Norina’ was hissed. I no longer recognized the friendly Milan ese, who received with enthusiasm and delight the ’ll Pirata,’ ‘La Straniera,' ‘La Sonnambula.’ I have deceived my self. I have made a great mistake. All my progenitors have been wrong. All my expectations have been illusions. But, I assure you from in.v heart, there are morsels in it that I shall be proud If I can ever excel.

According to all accounts, the Cam eron highlanders'-militia are a fine body of men physically. Not long ago four of them occupied the least crowd ed seat In a full compartment ou a Scotland railway. Just as the train was moving off a diminutive little cler- gyaan jumped into the compartment and tried to edge himself in between two of the highlanders. Not finding it very comfortable, he turned to the one on bis right and said: “Sit up. please. You know that, according to act of parliament, the seat holds five.” The highlander looked at him for a moment and then replied: “That may be a’ richt onough for your kind, air, but sbnirly ye canna’ blame me for no I l>ein’ constructed according to act of parliament!” Are You Going to Build?
