About 11 o'clock last night W. L. Pason, the detective, was passing along Lyon St. just after the arrival of the 10:57 train, when, as he crossed the bridge over the cmal, a couple of men standing near the barn in the rear of X. Boom's residence, on the alley run ning along the canal, fired twice at him, the bullets whizzing past his head. The men then fled westward along the canal, disappearing in the dark. rason nrea tnree snots in return. One of the sisters at the hospital, saw the flash of the revolver, just before the men run. Mr. Pason hurried to the depot and informed Nightwatch Catlin, who was at the train, and he made a search, but the only thing he found was a strange dog, which he locked up in the city jai as perhaps a clue. The dog proved to be the property of Ex-Sheriif White, who resides near the place, the animal not having been tagged not being recognized by Mr. Catlin. This is supposed to be the result of Mr. Pason's connection as a witness with the local option cases. Mr. Mitchell also reports a little shooting experience at his home at Crabtree the other night. Hearing a noise he went out with his lantern, when some one in the dark fired at him. He had a revolver and returned the compliment twice, answered by another shot, and two more by him, the man running away along the railroad track near his place. One of the New Residences Among the many new residences to I be erected in Albany this year will be one for A. D.

Appropriation Bill. A live debate is reported at eleven ger Hall last evening between C H. Walker and Eugene Palmer against the U. of O. $125,000 appropriation, and Prof. Alderman, of Eugene in favor of the bill making the appropriation. "Mr. Walker opened the discussion by presenting the action of the legislature, showing the politics of it, the character of the unsegregated bill and numerous things displaying the animous of the proceedings leading up to the bill. Mr. Palmer dealt in figures showing the im mense cost per capita at the 'Univer sity, how the tax payer has tn put up for it, and the great need ot all the money the people have to spare in the building up of the common schools of the state. Prof. Alderman spoke twice, having the closing argument in favor of the bill, showing what thfl university has done, the smallness of the appropria tion compared with those of other states, and the need of more money than has been asked for to properly equip and run the school in the manner that shall be creditable to tne state He was enhusiasttc in his advocacy of the bill and the demand for a patriotic support of the University in the inter est of the education of the young peo ple of the state. t Mr. Alderman said in part. If Ore gon is to keep her direct legislation she must have a general intelligence. The University of Oregon can do for this state what the University of Wisconsin has done for that state. There differ ent univorsity departments, including a legislative reference bureau connec ted with the university, enabled Gov ernor La Folette to do what he did in making its railways pay $400,000 in back tuxes and in securing a corpora tion t ix law that yields all the reve nues the state needs with a surplus to be tlistributed among the common schools. Based upon attendance each student in the public schols last year received something over $24. -State Supt J. W. Olsen of Minne sota says. "In my judgment no friend ot the common schools can afford to vote against such an appropriation for the higher education as that made by the legislature of Oregon for its uni versity." Supt. Edward Hyatt of California says: "There is no question whatever that the states possessing the strongest and best conducted state unieersities have also the best and strongest sys tem of common schools." The appropriation is from $82,500 to $125,000. it is continuing because it then will be unnecessary to go to the legislature each session. If it is con tinuing it can not be segregated. WILL GET ON THE TROLLEY Street Cars to lie Electrified Within Sixty Days. Albany's horse car will soon be a thing of the Dast. Mr. Hersh berg, the owner, who was in the city recently, has ordered an electric car for the line, and made a contract fo.- power from the Willamette Valley Co., Mr. Ross, manager of the hjrse car reports, and it is proposed to have a trolley car running within sixty days. The ewner did not wish to make the move until he knew for certain where the depot was to be located. A depot, trolley car will do a fine business. Will the system be extended, is an interesting question. The citv attorney was recently or dered io begin proceedings to have the franchise forfeited, but this course will undoubtedly change the program. Circuit Court.

A Waterloo Strike. John H. Turpin, of Waterloo, Or., is the discoverer of what he believes is the best ledge of ore in the state of Oregon.

Colpitts who says these two metals : re in suflicient quan tifies to make a valuable mini if found as indicated.

Van Winkle, Mrs. Warner, Mrs. r.-eH i . mount ana miss rean came- tui, AW0NDERFUL COUNTRY According to Lecturer Thos. E. Green. Many said the lecture of Dr. Thos. E. Green, at the U. P. church last night, was about the best they ever heard. Eloquent, practical, forceful, it made a strong impression). Here are a few of his pointers: This is a great tuining point. There has always been long prepara tion, then sudden fulfillment. There has never been an accident. Heredity, environment, persouality form the temperament of the Amer lean. A characteristic of American phyl osophy is that everything is all right anyway. This is the only nation that did not begin in barbarism. She just was. Our constitution is the greatest spec imen of statecraft in the history of the world. Grafters are not indiginous to Oregon. King George was surrounded by them. America has the golden key that is to unlock the progress of the world. Dealing righteously is teaching peace to the world. "Last century was an era of invention, this of realization. This is an age of marvels, with 48 story skyscrapers, sending ten telegrams over one wire at a time, talking from the middle of the oecan with Chi cago, taking pictures through the air, hearing people fifty miles away wire iessly, and wireless power is coming. Admiral Evans can talk with the six teen captains of his fleet. America is at tne front all over the world. Interbreding is ruining royalty in Eu rope. 59 per cent are either idiots or cancerous. Here we have a unique type, a mar velous amalgamation, virile and vigor ous. This is a country of enormous poss ibilities. Oregon is twice as big as England, capable of supporting the whole 80,000,000 people of the U. S. No nation ever died of old age. Heart rottenness and greed have done it. The manly courage of Theodore Roosevelt will play a big part in history. But the simple righteousness of Jesus Christ is at the foundation of all that is best in the world. C. H. NEWS.
