The Death Penalty.
A little thing somstimes reen'ts in
death. Thus a mere scratch, insignifi
cant cuts or puny boils have paid the
death penalty. It is wise to have Buck

Independent and reliable The Oregon-
A. L. M. Gottschalk, the American
consul at. Guayaquil, Ecuador, tells a
good story about the difficulties he has
to keep a monkey on the consulate
premises because c: the degradations
of the boaconstrietors. The big rep
tiles have a laiiln; tor i.cnVr; s and
these agile little pets must keep a con
Mi:it loo, .out for them. If Jocl-.o drops
inu) a doze he is likely to "wake up

On the occasion wi'h v V"h the

The consulate sif;n all tin vorld over

it goes to roost over the picture of the

A Ore.".t Object Lesson.
As a eonqm or ot obstacles the rail
way is a great object lesson, says Four
Track News. The youth of the country
should learn from the railway the les
son of enterprise and pluck. If, in its
prescribed course, a railway encounters
a deep ravine it bridges it; it spans
seemingly impassable barriers with a
trestle or a bridge and yocs on its way.
If it finds a mountain in its path it docs
not say: "I can never get over this!"
It bores a tunnel through it and comes
out on the other side. If it finds cases
where trestles and tunnels do not serve
its purpose it executes a loop, or inaugu
rates a cog road, by which it climbs
the heights as if to defy every obstacle.
If, in our everyday course, we surmount
all obstacles with as great a determina
tion as the railroad leaps across can
yons, or bores through mountains, the
word success would be more in evidence,
and the word failure, that is now so over
worked, would have a much needed rest

One in New York City That Holds
Sixty-Fire Gallons, Five
Feet High,
The largest blown glass bottle in the
United States, or In the world, so far as
the makers know, is on exhibition in a
window in Barclay street, just above
Greenwich. It holds 65 gallons and is
ihaped something like a baby's nursing
bottle narrow at the bottom, bulging
it the midle, with a small neck and
mouth. The bottle is a trifle less than
fie feet hi.rh, and is about four feet in
circumference at its widest part, reports
the- New York Times.
The man who blew it at the factory
in New J:r:.'y is just about as tall as the
bo'itle. If he could manage to squeeze
through its nick, lie could sleep ery
-o:?:fcrtab'y inside of it. If the surface

one.
The substitution of machinery for
human labor in glass bottle factories is
not making much headway. For the
finer grades of work machinery is no
good at all. Skilled mechanics are at
work improving it all the time, and
they promise to succeed some day, just
as they did with the typesetting ma
chines. Meanwhile the efficient glass
blower has the call. There is a great
deal of boy labor in the factories, which
are scattered throughout New York.
