A NEW IDEA
In Reference to Oregon's Normal
Schools.
An Albany man who has been over
the entire state in the line of his work
has been studying the normal school
situation and has evolved the following
interesting thing:
There is a good deal of dissatis
faction with the present arrangement.
None of the schools are properly equip
ped or situated. The Monmouth build,
ings need replacing, Ashland is too far
south, Drain is not a proper town and
Weston's square building is not a suit
able one or the town the best located.
According to him there uhould be an
intirely new deal, with new buildings
of modern structure equipped for the
important work, one of which should be
located at Albany, the most centrally
situated in western Oregon for such a
school, and the other at Pendleton, the
best located across the mountains for
the work. He savs there is consider
able of a sentiment being developed for
a new deal.

Basket Ball.
At Eugene last night Roseburg de
feated the Eugene U. S. 27 to 14. The
Regiter says there has been fairer ref
ereeing than by theRoseburg man. The
Eugene girl's team has been disbanded,
hence no game.
Tonizht there will be a double header
between the boys and girls teams of
Roseburg and Albany. With Dooley
and Stalnaker in tne game a good
showing ought to be made.
The Albany high school basket ball
team played at the Corvallis rink
Thursday night, being defeated by a
public school team 20 to 3. The first
half ended 3 to 2 in favor of Albany,
but in the second half Corvallis more
than made up fir it. Humphrey and
Banders played forward, onnng e,rmc
Pherson and Huston guards.

A Woodburn Tragedy.
Woodburn had a small tragedy last
night. Charles Elwell was said to have
tried to rob a Mr. Jordan of Hub
bard three weeks ago. Marshall Zach
Kiddle of Woodburn had been looking
for him. He found him last night and
attempted to arrest him when Elwell
jumped upon him . Riddle used his club.
Two shots were fired by some one near.
Elwell started to run, when the marshal
fired, hitting him in the leg, bringing
him down.
