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.

Herfert Butter .Unking.
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

churn was stopped as soon as the butter

the whole was carefully pressed into a
solid mass and directly packed for
market. Simple as this process is.
