Founders' Day was appropriately celebrated at Cornell, the 'nrlncloal exercise being an address In Uie armory ty Charles A. Dana, editor ot the-New York Sun. The exercises began at 11 o'clock with music, the ar mory being crowded to the door with townspeople and studentB, probably 2,500 In number. On the platform were Mr. Dana, Preslden Schurman, Dr. C M. Tyler, and Hon. H. W Sage. Presi dent Schurman made a few remarks pertaining to Founders' Day, and at 11:30 Introduced Mr. Dana, who said: "I esteem myself fortunate In being chosen to make the Founders' Day ad dress to the students and officers of this famous university. Every age re quires new exemplars to do the work that age has to do In the vast drama of man's existence on earth. There are two kinds of usefulness in this age. The first Is the man of thought In the realm of science and Invention, such as Edison." Mr. Dana then spoke a few moments on the wonders this age has produced In the way of Inventions. He then stated that the second class of useful men was that of those endowed with the gift of amassing wealth or getting riches, against whom people are wont to disclaim, and against whom legisla tion Is directed. Among these, he said, were Ezra Cornell and Henry Sage. These two men knew how to save, and to give for great public enterprises and uses. Wealthy men were a useful and necessary part of the age, and were doing good. He then turned his attention to the newspaper, saying it was a primary necessity; that a man must have his breakfast, tout he also must have his paper. The newspaper profession re quired the utmost learning. Many newspapers were very sparsely sup plied with this necessary article.' Mr. Dana then described the evolution a? regards typesetting, by the advent ot typesetting machines, and described their workings. He then spoke of the greatly reduced cost of paper, and said that It was so - cheap now that some papers with a circulation of 100,000 could strike oft a few additional hundred thousands at little cost, and ship them to, say, Glen's Falls, where they could be made Into paper boxes, while the newspaper got the benefit of additional circulation. 50.

One a newspaper for sensible people, and another for fools. He had high testimony that there were certain portions of every community made up of fools, and therefore it was perfectly right to provide newspapers for them, Some newspapers were taking care of this class In fact, making a specialty of it. The Sunday newspaper, Mr. Dana thought, was a good institution. If It were wrong to make it, It was wrong to read It, and the American people had stamped It with their approval, because the circulation of Sunday newspapers is double that of the dally, and as long as people will buy them, they will be made.' People complained because, per haps, there were noxious things In the newspapers, but there wouia always Breakfast Shawls 25o. Bindings per roll 2a - Pearl Buttons from 7c to 15o a dozen.

The newspaper was the mirror of the day's eventn, "and had to chronicle the good things and the bad; and, as the bad predominated, naturally some thing noxious would have to be chron ioled. If one paper did not print a certain item, people' would talte another that did. If' a divine providence per mitted such things to occur, surely we must be permitted to tell the facts to each other. Mr. Dana then spoke of the necessity of a newspaper having Independence. As to the qualifications of a newspaper man, he said he must have a complete education, and especially a knowledge of the English language, otherwise he may write that which he does not mean. He must also bs practical, have a knowledge of chemistry, electrlrlty, history, and political economy. The latter was not so essentia, he thought, because no one understood it. He then spoke of news agencies, the pay of em ployes ot papers, etc. The artists em Dloved on papers also received atten tion. First of Importance on newspa pers he put reporters, enlarging on their gift of knowing the truth when they law it. Mr. Dana then expiated on the value of a free press. In closing he gave some maxims: t First, never be in a hurry; second, all the goodness of a good egg can't make up for theTjadness of a bad egg; third, stand by the Stars and Stripes and stand steadfast for liberty." Mr. Dana's address took ono hour and a quarter for delivery. THE UNEXPECTED DISCHARGE OF A CANNON Close by would not have a more dis turbing effect upon the nerves which are vigorous, than an ordinary noise upon those which are. weak and un strung. As a nervine, Hoetetter's Stomach Bitters is unrivalled. By pro moting digestion and essimlla'tion they overcome that gastric disorder, which is the most prolific cause of nervous debility, and which, so long as It exists, defeats In a large measure the action of sedatives and opluibes. Such reme dies, moreover, necessitate the use of Increasing duees, and finally cease to act altogether, except In dangerous quantities.

The city of Astoria, Oregon, Is about to becomo the greatest seaport and me tropolls of Northwestern America. Its location and resources have at. traded the attention of capital, and it is today the best field for the invest ment of money, brains and muscle on the American continent. This "Largest civilized city In tho world without a railroad," Is to exper ience the Impetus of a connection In different directions with two of the greatest continental railway systems. Astoria's harbor advantages (the best on the whole Pacific Coast) are now understood and appreciated; Its fishing Interests (already paying to the hands employed In the salmon canneries alone over $230,000 of wages each month) are to be augmented by the Investment of outside capital and the erection of large and latest Improved plants. The Immense forests of Ore gon pine surrounding the city are to be converted into lumber for the Aus tralian, Chinese, Japanese, and South American markets. The great coal fields within a few miles of the city are to be Immediately opened, and the product thereof shipp ed in every direction. A dairying region unsurpassed In the whole world Is to be opened up and afforded an outlet to market A harbor, better than that of San Francisco, and the only one with this exception on tlu more than two thous and miles of Pacific coast, Is to be supplied with Increased dockage and coaling facilities, and Immense grain elevators will be built to store and load the wheat ot the Columbia basin direct ly on the merchant fleets of the world. Astoria offers openings for many new Industries, namely, grist mills, saw mills, paper mills, stave, box, barrel and tub factories, show case works, sash and door factories, ,' There will be room for many live, energetlo and ' wide-awake men and women with or without money.
