Albany College.
Albany is in the niid.t of a am
paign to raise a new endowment for
Albany College. James J. Hill lias
contributed $5U,(X)U on condition that
friends of the institution will raise a
sufficient additional sum to lift the
arcuate to $250,000.
Already loa.om o me injuin-w
sum lias been pledged, and tue prcs
cut effort is to secure thc-balancc.
It on u bt to succeed. The leader
chin i.f i-vcrv educational institution
is of valuable service to the state and
. the country. Kvcry new student
drawn into the class rooms is a new
recruit for better and stumer insti
unions, citv. state and national.
The denominational college has its
established place. Many parents pre
fer to have their sous and daughters
educated at such an institution. They
regard t'ne moral forces that environ
it as essential in crcaling me uigiicsi
I vne of riti'.eushiu.
As never before, there is now a
country-wide realization of the need
of pushing education from every an
ifle and bv every process. The Rock
efeller foundation is example of a na
tional trend. I.esser philanthropists
are impressed with a realization that
colleges are with the common schools
a bulwark of self government, and
are casting about for institutions upon
which to make bestowals.
Hut they are not endowing debt
ridden colleges. A college debt is a
proof of financial mismanagement,
and even philanthropy has a head for
finance.
In campaigning for an ample en
dowment, the friends of Albany Col
lege are laying I lie groundwork for
making it a stable and substantial in
stitution. When they have done that,
they will have opened the way for the
institution to become the recipient of
large bestowals from abroad.
Albany has a reputation of getting
what she goes for, and there will be
state-wide interest and encouragement
in t lie present endowment campaign.
Portland Journal.
Early Shopping.
With the excitement incident to a
national election out of the way, the
thoughts of the public turn to the day
of Thanksgiving, a peculiarly Ameri
can institution! and then a few weeks
later to the great Christian festival
of Christinas. Christmas suggests
gifts, and gifts suggest early shop-
l,inK- ... ,
Early shopping is to be recommend
ed from two standpoints. One is that
it is plain, cold business looking out
for Number one. Early in the season,
there is -more to choose from, and the
always puzzling question of "what to
get" is easier to solve.
The other standpoint is that of
courtesy and consideration for the
rights and' comforts of others. Just
because clerks and sales people are
paid to sell goods is no reason why
the public should not extend them all
possible courtesy. Even when a large
part of the Christmas shopping is
done early in the season, the rush of
work during the last week is bad
enough. When the' buying is all put
off to the last minute, it means long,
weary hours of rush work to clerks
who are already fagged out.
The "early shopping" propaganda
is one that has been gaining strength
yearly for some time, and it is likely
to he more observed this year than
ever before. Money is reasonably
free, crops arc good, and there is no
sensible reason for deferring the an
nual experience.
On the contrary, there arc many
reasons for grasping time firmly by
the forelock ami plunging into the
task. The early biriA is rep;;tl to
gather ill the worm. The early shop
per certainly lias the advaulage of un
broken stock, more individual, careful
and courteous treatment, and the sat
isfaction of knowing that he has ma
terially assisted ill reducing the bur
den of the women and men behind the
counters to whom the festal season
means little but overwork and tired
limbs. Eugene Register.
DUN S REVIEW ON THE
WEEK'S BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Tho following is a review of (lie
week's business outlook by Unit's
Review :
Business continues to expaiul,
tiiteheeketl by the Balkan war
with its grave l'.nropean compli
cations, and its remarkable de
velopment lias furnished new
proof that true national prosper
ity springs from tlie soil. The
domestic and foreign demand for
iron and steel products is even
larger than before, with all previ
ous records broken. Railroad
purchases continue on an exten
sive scale nolwithst;iudino that a
decision as to the raising of rail
road wae.es is near at hand. The
railroads are making every effort
to move promptly the tremendous
traffic of the country and at the
same time are making tine prepar
ation for the requirements of the
future. There arc also siivns of
preparation for the opcuine, of the
I'anaina (.'ami!. The dry t;oods
market, in both cottons and wool
ens, daily develops new activity
and strcni;th. ami the retail luisi
iiess, thoue,h held in check some
what by lite mild weather, now
shows increased volume as the
holiday season approaches. The
shoe tt.tde also maintains a steady
j;ain. Crop conditions are all that
could he desiied and the latest
cotton estimates foreshadow an
inereasinu yield. The movement
of wheat is enormous. The week's
statistics all confirm the reports
from individual trades. Hank
clearings this week parted 8.5 per
cent over last year and 1.1 .1 per
cent over 1"10, and railroad earn
ings in the first week of Novem
ber increased !.) per cent. World
wide, firmness in money contin
ues, and the Imperial Bank ot
fiertnany has advanced its dis
ciiKit rate from 5 to 6 per cent.
Important developments occurred
in foreign exchange, with a furth
er decline in demand sterling to
below 4.85, yet a resumption of
gold imports is considered unlike
ly at litis juncture. Prosperity
itas expanded imports. The great
volume of exports is maintained;
at New York for the latest week
the exports were $16,543,570, be
ing considerably larger than ivi
the two preceding years, while
imports were $--.284,474, the
gain over the two years being rel
atively about the same as in the
case of exports.
Liabilities of commercial fail
ures thus far reported for Novem
ber amount to $6,926,929, of
which $2,803,617 are' in manufac
turing. $2,871,480 in trading and
$1,251,832 in other commcfclal
lines. Failures this week num
bered 271 in the United States
against 266 last year, and 37 in
Canada compared with 26 a year
ago.

The cause of the separation of the

attending the strange act of his wife
when she left him at Hongkong, but
could give no reason which would ac
count for the mystery.
both Cavanaugh and his wife have
grown sons and daughters and are
well known about San Jose where the
families have lived for many years.
Immediately after the steamer docked,
the aged bridegroom hastened to the
railroad station at Third and Town

fortune ill Seattle real estate.
"I'lcase don't ask me to talk about
this," begged Cavanaugh, with tears
streaming down his checks, "both
Mrs. Kavanaugh and myself have
grown children, and 1 don't want
them to hear anything about it. 1 had

means, and the last thing 1 did before
we were married was to provide Mrs.
Kavanaugh with a beautiful new home
in which we were to live as soon as

"We sailed from New York on June

there was not a ripple of trouble as
we traveled about Europe and Asia,

we boarded the steamer at Port Said

and then, for the first time, 1 noticed
a dilterence.
"'No,' saiil Mrs. Cavanaugh. 'I will

"I did not understand it, but did

CANADIAN FARMER TIES A
Winnipeg, Afan., Nov. 17. Peter G.
Hanson, a farmer at Grierson, 80
miles northwest of Winnipeg, is
sought by the Manitoba police, who
accuse him of tying a young woman to
a cow's horns. Maggie Warauski, the
daughter of a neighbor, is seriously
injured, perhaps fatally, as a result.
The story sent here is to the effect
that Hanson, who was enamored of
the girl, became angry at her cold
ness and threatened revenge. This
revenge is said to have consisted of
knocking the girl unconscious and
binding her firmly across the animal's
horns. The cow took fright and dash
ed into the brush, tearing off the
young woman's clothes against the
tives.
When the animal became exhausted,
it fell and the girl was crushed against
the earth. She was trampled under
the cow's feet when it attempted to
rise. Neighbors hearing the screams
in the woods, cut the girl loose.

Next Saturday Albany will be a
veritable football hub, with the fans
here from all parls of western Ore

the grounds. It offers the opportun
ity fur Albany to be the permanent
go-between place for the t vo teams
in their annual contests, and it is up
to the pit yto make good as a peace
preserver and peacemaker, neutral and
fair.
Mums the word.
The armory is the place.
And the money goes to the library,
one of the best institutions here, and
one that will blossom out in the
spring time in a beautiful new suit,
at the corner of Ferry and Third.
Albany College is too big an asset
to be lost. The small college is a
power in the land, and this one can
he made one in Albany. It already
has a long and splendid record of
achievement, and at the present time
no institution is doing more thorough
or better work along standard lines.
A big thing in the life of the small
college is the fact that it also helps
to build up character, something ot"
immense importance.
The sentiment in favor of making
Albany a cleaner city, free from Mind
pius. etcetera, is growing, receiving a
backing from all charters. Manv who

EXPERT WILL PUT ARMORY
FLOOR IN PERFECT SHAPE
State Will Bear Portion of the
Expense of Work Which Will
Begin Tomorrow.
The floor of the big armory hnll in
this city is to be placed in A-I con
dition immediately by an expert from
Portland who will begin operations
here tomorrow, having been secured
by Capt. Fran!; M. Powell of this city
who recently took up the work of hav
ing the floor fixed, ivith Adjutant
General Finzer of Portland.
The expense of fixing the floor will
cost approximately $250, one half of
which will be paid by the state and
the remainder by the local company
of coast artillery.
When the Armory was originally
built, the floor was improperly con
structed, causing it to warp late rand
making it absolutely unfit for dancing
and bad for drilling. A large sum of
money has already been expended in
an attempt to place the floor in shape
without avail. The Portland expert
guarantees to place the floor in per
lect condition and says that it will be
the best floor in Albany when he has
finished, and as smooth as glass.
The announcement that the floor
of the armory is to be placed in ex
cellent shape for dancing will be re
ceived with pleasure by the young
people of this city and the big build
ing will undoubtedly be the scene of
the annual ball of-the Albany .Military

THESE COWS GOT DRUNK
ON HARD APPLE CIDER
Winsted, Conn., Nov. 19. Samuel
N. Pond, a dairyman of Woodbury,
could not supply his customers with
butter because his herd of cows got
drunk.
Someone let down the bars and the
Molsteins entered an orchard where
Pond hail several piles of fermenting
apples waiting removal to- a cider
press.
The animals gorged themselves with
the over-ripe apples until they were
exhilarated like a lot of frisking
heifers. The result was one cow was
ruined and had to be killed and the
entire milk and cream supply was cut
off by the dairy for twenty-four hours,
as Woodbury has a strong temperance
element and punch is not highly
esteemed.
