If there is one thing above another that Dr. Harry Lane, superintendent of the asylum, has always in contemplation, it is to devise some scheme for -the amusement and welfare of the five hun dred patients under his charge. His latest plan is to tear away the high fences back of the building, and lay the grounds there out in one big park, with walks, croquet grounds, plats of grass, flowers, and so forth. Dr. Lane's idea is that the patients should be given as large lilerty and recreation as pos sible, though such a move will of neces sity require an additional number of at tendants. The park is yet only a pro ject, but it will be a reality in the course of a very few months. Dr. Lane will also have about 1.10 acres of land in vegetables.w hich will supply the asylum with nil manner of vegetable diet for the whole year. Statesman, 21.

To-day's Oregonian gives the follow ing particulars regarding the disappear ance and return of Lillie Steeples, which Mr. Steeples, in conversation with us this morning, said was substantially correct. He brought his sister out from Portland last evening: Miss Lillie Steeples, the 16 year old Hillsboro girl who disappeared last Sat urday while doing an errand for her sister, Mrs. Hawkins, of No. 'Z Mor rison street, was brought back to the city yesterday and taken to Hillsboro by her brother. During a portion of the afternoon she was with her sister, who refused to allow re j sorters or others to talk with her regarding her peculiar conduct. Mrs. Hawkins said she had not talked much with Lillie about the matter and did not care to. Mr. Steeples said he and District At torney Colville found Lillie in a Seattle hotel at Midnight Tuesday night. She had been crying bitterly and seemed glad to meet her brother. Mr. Steeples said his sister was greatly disinclined to talk about the affair, and he hid uot questioned her much. She did uot know the name of the man who induced her to leave Portland, nor could she give a description of him. He fought her a ticket for Seattle, and when she arrived there she he was met by a tall, black-whiskered, dark cornpletioned man, who accompanied her to a hotel. Warm KnawlBf. Mr. W. II.

Of many thousand samples of butter examined by the late Professor L. H. Arnold, during the past twentv-t', or thirty years, only one was considered by him fit to mark perfect. That sample was found at the Ray state fair, Boston, latt fall. Since the announcement of this fact many have rushed into print to claim the honor of having their butter adjudged perfect by expert. Hut we express doubt whether o keen a judge as Professor Arnold was would have awarded il the seal of perfection. After judgment of the Bay state butter was made by number, it w as found that the maker was selling it in Boston at 80 csents a pound. His and other sample scoring np to 07, 98 and 99 per rent, were made in the ordinary way of cold setting, acidifying the cream by setting it ia warm place aad frequently stirring it and churning it as toon as ascidity ppeara distinctly, but before It goes far enough to cut the flavoring oils. The churn was stopped as soon as the butter appeared in granular form, the butter milk then drawn off, the butter carefully washed in cold water until it ran away clear, the butter salted by sprinkling on the salt and lightly stirring it in, when the whole was carefully pressed into a solid mass and directly packed for market. Simple as this process is. Professor Arpold jutly adds. "It i oftener missed than followed ." Prairie Farmer. . etr 1 miner. Under the stn.ve ittiitiou. the I'tiral Spirit of last week says: T.
