School Matters, The Democrat mentioned the site for the new school house to go up at tne cast end on the JJurkhart prop crty as a gift, but it is not. Two aeres have been secured at a cost of $3500. The gift of a block in the new addition was offered, but the location jwas not considered satisfactory by the board, and the board chose a site fur- ther south, east of the home of R. L. rJurkhart. . I In concction with the list of new teachers it should be remarked that Prof. Bown, a very capable principal for a couple of years, was not a candi date for reelection. He was offered the position, but has accepted a more lucrative one at ncnans, Wash., where h cwill go with the confidence and esteem of Albany people. Married 50 Years, Mr. and Mrs. H. C.

At the Linn & Benton office n-.ay be seen a solid mass of stuff resemhlinir chamois skin, which Warren llulbcrt, residing near Albany, found in the cen ter of an oak tree, In fact a slice of it is about as tough as chamois, which it resembles in a remarkable manner. How much there is of this on Mr. Hulbert's farm is not known: but it suggests an opportunity for promo tion ol a great industry. It is easy to figure out enormous possibilities if Mr. Hulhcrt has sufficient of the stuff hidden away in his trees. Chamois skin is costly, and there ought to be millions in it. Will Jefferson Pave?

West a few days ago made an address at Cottage Grove on running the penitentiary, making some state- Kncnts that deserve consideration. A reported bv the Leader he presented facts worth listning to, He said: "Idleness and litiuor are the two greatest factors in the making of crim inals." He has done away with tin old regime idleness and the "bull pen" in the penitentiary and is providing work and a chance for the prisoners to learn some profitable trade instead. He advocates good sanitary condi tions that the prisoners may not leave the prison with the additional handi cap of ill health or some incurable contagion when their time expires, lie depreciates the fart that it has been the custom to confine with hard ened criminals mere youths who through some minor crimes or com bination of circumstances have been convicled and sentenced to serve terms in the penitentiary, and In seeks to remedy this evil. He main tains that tins state institution should be designed more as a great reformatory than a place of phir-th-uirnt.
