The enlightened purpose o f the Southern Pacific, to promote the canning industry in Oregon, promises well both for the rail road and the state. Producing fruit and vegetables to be tinned is not very exciting or romantic, but it is profitable and not exces sively difficult. It might easily become one o f the leading indus tries of Oregon.

It was about the size and shape of a Hoar tierral, was elevated from the floor about four feet and was fastened to the wall. The aacent was by narrow winding steps. A minister from a neighboring town, a man of great vigor and vehemence, preached there one Sunday. While preaching he bent for ward and ahouted out with great force the words of hta text: "The righteous shall stand, but the wicked shall fall.” Just as these words escaped from his lips the pulpit broke from Its fasten ing, and he fell out and rolled over on the floor Itefore his congregation. In an Instant he was up again and said: "Brethren, I am not hurt, and I don't mind the fall much, but I do hate the connection."—Philadelphia Ledger. Timber Land.
