The Xationul Live Slecl: Journal de clares, aft a scientific fact, that good meat must, as a first requisite, be very Tat "excessively fat," as the ieop!e would say. Nearly every experienced house holder has come to' this same opinion. The meat may be beautifully mottled, and yet be very tough; it was old and wbb suddenly fattened. Therefore, while all fat meat is not sweet and tender, yet there is no sweet and tender iueat to' be found on the butcher's block which is not very fat. Pay a little extra for this fat; it is a good investment A "flunk steak," properly dressed and scarified with the butcher's knife, makes a fine broil, and though of inferior flavor, will nine times out of ten, prove a great card on a family dinner table. Joseph Drake, the colored man who aided in the murder of old man Schwartz last summer, is to be hanged at Salem this afternoon. A strong appeal has been made to the governor for a com mutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment. The petition is signed by most of the trial jury, and by the su preme judges. The niurder of Schwartz was one of the most cold-blooded and unprovoked that is in the history of crime in Oregon. The old man was umbushed at night, when he little thought of death. The aim of the assassins was unerring and the victim was killed instantly. One of rthe murderers, Henry, turned states evidence and is now iu the pententiary for lile. Drake was tried by a jury m the circuit court and condemned to death. The supreme court reviewed the case-and confirmed the judgment of the circuit court. On Wednesday afternoon Its,, by in vitation of Mrs. Martin, an address was delivered by Bev. Dr. Eobsrts in the public schools in District No. One, to all the pupils and teachers that could be gathered into one rocm on the question of elocution or, as he preferred to call it, Hove to say things." No report of the address has bo3n received beyond the fact that it was heard with -attention by a crowded roomful of as bright pupils as can anywhere be found. Think this is a move in the right direction; a gener ation of better readers and speakers than the present ought to be raised up most assuredly, and it can be done. Many, perhaps most, of the teachers in the public schools are awake to the ques tion, but it is one of marked difficulty! and they are always glad to have their eflorta seconded and endorsed by men , whose experience in vocal matters is well understood by the community.

The rivers, lakes and tributaries are frozen to an unusual depth, and it will be some time before they are clear of ice.

Lindermau gave their promissory note to A. A. Webber in 1877 for 178.75. due and owing him. The note was to bear inter est at the rate of 5 per cent n month, pay able in advance, with the express agree ment that upon a failure to pay the in terest it should be added to and become a part of the principal and bear interest. On June 28, 1881, Webber entered suit in the justices' court against the notemak ers and at that time the sum total due amounted to 1038. Webber did not is sue n summons until the year allowed by law for the issuing of a summons after the filing of a complaint had nearly ex pired, and he then held back the papers and did not serve them on the defendants until last month, at which time his claim against them had amounted to 12.104. Messrs. Messick and Maxwell appeared before Justice Wood yesterday in the special interestjof the defendant Linder man and asked that the suit against him should be distressed on several grounds. The principal objections raised were that the amount sued for exceeded the juris diction of the court, and also that the de lay in serving the summons had been un necessary. The matter was argued at length and Justice Wood dismissed the suit against Lindermnn, principally lie cause the amount involved exceeded the jurisdiction of his court. He held that as the case now stands the suit is for 12,104. as the terms of the note express ly provided that in the event of a failure to pay the interest, it should become a Eart 6f the principal and bear interest, e also held that if a plaintiff was en titled to delay the serving of a summons as long as he pleased, the only statute of limitations that would run against him would be his own concience. -?. .

Stewart ha3 been victimizing unsuspecting parties who de sire to purchase California fruit trees, dipt. Flavel is among the victims. The captain orderedabill of choice trces,which cost 2G0, and were to come from Fox's nursery, near San Jose, California. Stewart went to Luelling's Nursery, at Milwaukie, near this city, and purchased the cheapest trees he could buy, consist ing of cherry, pear, apple, etc., paying for the whole lot about C0. Then he put on fancy labels, christening the poor stock with the names of the choice varie ties contracted for, and delivered them to Capt. Flavel's agent. The best of the joke is that Capt. Flavel ib not yet aware that he has been victimized. ' It is a cruel jolo to victimize a man iu this way, as a fruit grower would not discover the fraud until the trees had been planted for several years. Porlluiid Xjnrs.

THE HAGIC HA1RPI'. The Thine Most Truly Kepreseatatire ofthe (.rest American filrl. The proof of a boy's mechanical skill is usually what he can do with a jack knife: the proof of a. woman's is what she can do with a hairpin. Few women tako naturally to ordinary tools. They use hammers in a gingerly and ridiculous manner, or they pound their lingers with them: they put blunt poiuted nails along instead of across the grain.and then wonder whv it splits: they ue screw-drivers principally to pry open boxes, nnd they think wire-pincers were made to crack nuts with. But they know how to manage a hairpin. "A lady," said an observant gentleman the other day. ''always opens a letter better than a man. A man tears off ihe corner, and then pulls the envelope more or less to pieces in geting at the con tents, but a lady draws a hairpin, inserts ono prong at a corner, and rips open the edge as neatly, easily and quickly as if the tool were made for the purpose." "With this same "tool she can, and frequently does, button her glove and occasionally her boots. She cuts the magazines with it. She pricks mem oranda when caught without a pencil. She twists it into clasps for broken jew elr. She use- it to suspend plaques. She emplin it to draw corla, and also to snuff caudles. She inserts it in win dows to keep them from rattling, aud uses it to brace back shades that incline to tumble down. She succeeds, with its help, in turning the hasps of windows from the outside when obliged by an ac cidental locking-out to burglarize her own house. She anus herself with it when traveling to keep disagreeable neighbors at a respect fnl distance. She tiles receipts upon it. She pin.s up no tices to the milkman. She even bends it roughly into the form of her initial, and hangs "it in the keyhole of her intimate friend by way of a card when she has forgotten her card-case and the family are out." The fan has long been regarded as the object most suggestive of the Spanish women. Ladies of other countries are famed for their especially graceful or skillful U3e of other dainty family femi nine rrticles. But if wo were asked to select the thing most truly representa tive of tho Great American Girl, we would name without hesitation the neat, the ingenious, tho inexhaustible, the Magic Hairpin!
