The former has been delivered at the Mills Seminary, and Dr. Stratton, so well known in Salem, says: "It is indescribable and inimitable, con taining more wit, pathos, humor and solid sense than any one lecture he ever recollected hearing." This is high praise from an unimpeacha ble sourse. Wo must all hear it. New Incorporation.

What a JouhnaIj reporter saw of the mop, gave the Impression that it is a very complete work. Including uiinuto details. As an incidental proof of the growth of Salem, it may bo mentioned tltat it fakes ten sheets to make the map, that in 1884 required only four. A Getd MiTtmtit. Singing is not to be neglected in the public schools of Salem. At the East school Miss Gillingham, who a one of our popular vocalists, will take charge, of the singing this year. It is tho intention to teach many new songs so that there may bo a greater variety. A choir will prob tbly be formed of the best singers wnong the pupils, and they, under the supervision of their instructor, will lead in the singing. m Tke Xw BUtllliilit.

California has hnd some thunder and rain showers, and a little appre hension is felt about the raisin crop. Be sure and see the immense oxen opposite Wnit's restaurant at the fair. Tho largest in the world. 175-181. Yesterday's usual quiet Sunday was greatly broken in upon by the incoming of visitors and the rush to the fair grounds. Call and see the Immense cattle at the fair ground, opposite Wilk's restaurant, the largest in tho world. Geo. W. Belt, ex-prosecuting at torney of the third judicial district, is now practicing law in Spokane Falls. Thos. Jackson, living on the cor ner of Center and high street, who broke his arm by the fulling scaffold on Mrs. D'Arcy's new house, is doing well. At S. A. Clark's wonderful prune orchard they will have 60,000 pounds of dried fruit. Just think of 30 tons of evaporated fruit from one small orchard. The Eugene express, that passes Salem at 12:52 p. m., will remain over at the fair ground till 5 o'clock, that passengers may get oft" and see the races and fair. It, H. Price, Salem pioneer hack man, will wait on passengers to or A Hint to Puny reeplr. From thoir arrival on this plnnot to their usually airly doparturv from it, people of weak constitutions and angular physiques jwss a sort of half-existence. Like dormice they burrow in their home retreats, afraid of heat, afraid of cold, con stantly anaid that the shadow of the dread reaper will materialise and exact the forfeit which he de mands of all, sooner or later. No finer mcdineinal ossurauco of com parative vigor for the feeble exists than that afforded by llostetter's Stomach Rittoi. Used with in sistence not with spurts and spasms this genial and profession ally commended tonic will do much toward Infusing strength into a puny system, and rounding oil' scrawny angles in tho human fig ure. Appetite, nerve tranquility and nightly repose are encouraged by it, and a malaria, rheumatic bilious tendency overcome. It re establishes digestion and prevents kidney troubles.

The town is all alive to-day, The fine rain tho last two nights has laid the dust and made traveling very pleasant Hacks, trains aud private vehicles nro constantly going to and from the fair grounds. Prof. M. V. Rork gave a review of Robt. G. Ingersoll's lecture on "The Gods," and his answer to Mr. Gladstone, of England, in the North American Review. Tho professor Js original, interesting and very cm phatic C. P. Bailey, the great owner of angora goats, 10,000 in number, from San Jose, Cal., was in town yester day. He has gone to Portland, but will return on Wednesday, and visit the fair. The goat interest is an im portant one for this valley, where bo much clearing of brush is to be done. D. H. Lafollet aud wife returned from a visit to Baker City. They say that it may be a very good coun try, but it is too dry aud dusty for them. They will take theirs in the Willamette valley for the rest of their days. They were just behind the train that went through a burning bridge this side of The Dalles, where the engineer and flroman were kill ed. For nil lee on both aide of the track are forest firea. Mr. Lafollet saw the great Baker City fire, that ran up into hundreds of thousands of dollars. He says that Salem is a hundred par cent, ahead of that place, both for water and engines in case of a conflagration. Stati: Faiii G hounds, Sept, Having my attcutlon called to an article appearing in this morning's Dally Statesman that reflects upon the managers of the Southern Paciflc Railroad Company unjustly, I deem it but just to state that said railroad company should bo exonerated, aud I know there is no truth In the charge that said company lias dis criminated against any one who may want to come over their lino of road to the Oregon state fair. On tho contrary, they have instructed their local ucKcts agents to sell excursion tickets to all persons who may desire to attend said fair at a rate fttllv as reasonable as the rates specified in the article referred to. lalso would say that tho reference made in tho article to the race meeting just closed and tho Mechanics' fair of Portland is unjust and uncalled for. It is regreted that said article should have appeared. J. T. APPERSON. Tho rates granted all along the O. & C. railroad (now the Southern I'aclllc; Is one-half the usual fare 0. I'. .Notes.

He says that tho mllkiness or mud diness'of theSantinm may bo partly accounted .for by the fact that Pamella creek running Into it is largely filled with discoloring debris which looks llko the result of hydraulic mining.

Loughhead, a traveler In Australia, Japan, all over this coast, and now a resident of Cali fornia, says that the more ho goes over this valley the more he is im pressed that it is the best place he ever saw for a man to make a start and get on in the world without making a rapid fortune. He prophesies u bright future for It. TkeBraaiBaU. The Second Regiment band is about to close negotiations with Prof. Althans, of Findlay, Ohio, to eonie to Salem and assume the po sition of leader and instructor of the band. It te probable that Prof, AHlwiw will start Iinmedlatoly for Salem. He is nteoaiBieuded as a nnt-Ia&ti cornet player. DIED. Less than formerly, but still too seriously, young women contemplate the destiny of an old maid. They look toward the time when they may We so described as toward a lengthening period of shame and reproach. They dread passing from the sunny plane of expectant girl hood into tho shadow of settled fate in single life, as though they were to step over the lino that separates honorublo womanhood from a pecu liar mlsfortuue that only women can ttuiTer. Rather than endure this supposed humiliation, a woman who had lived a patient, loving, service able, unwedded lifo, committed sui cide recently. She had not the courage to be an old maid, she said. There Is something pitiful In this falso notion, this subtle self pride, surviving the semi-civilized era when it was thought that tho chief end of woman was marriage. The world is moving so rapidly away from the old theories, customs, and prejudices that once held women in social bondage that it seems extra ordinary that stupid conceit of the past should make wretched the lives of, good, earnest, and free women to day. Ono time it was the highest ambition of women in gonerol to become wives. Their whole youth ful training and odueatlon was shaped to that finality. Not to se cure a husband was evidence of a flokle nature or an unattraetivechar aeter, and no woman of spirit oared tohuvoit said that she could not win a husband. But moral mid in tellectual vWwa have broadened so greatly since the time this vicious prejudice made stares ami puppets and lay figures of women, people of mind and worth no longer count it have reached out so variously and extensively that woman has become one or the active Instruments of soolal development, and Is no longer a passive, dull tool, moroly incident al to the creative scheme. She has become niUtress of herself, is left freo to choose without criticism, cen sure, or reproach whatever respect able path she shall tread In the plan of life. From a household ornn- mont or domestic drudge she has ex panded Into a mental, moral, and spiritual force ; has become an agent of art, science, and education, as well as a mistress of tho graces, and is respected for the forces, powers, and qualities within her, tho truo womanhood that is made up of mind as well as matter and Is in spired by genius as well as tempered by sentiment. The world has learned that wom en can think as well as love ; that they can achieve as well as serve; that they are imbued with divine attributes as well as blessed with material charms; and in learning this the world has, however reluc tantly, struck from womanhood the bonds custom welded upon her in tho days when tho warrior savage found tho delicate companion of his peace only fit to carry and servo in tho business of life, which ho thought to be only fighting. Wom en formerly married to secure pro tectors; under the now dispensation tlioy can protect themselves. Form erly woman was content to admire tho exploits, bravery, and achieve ments of men ; now sho knows that she has the ability, tho talent, tho genius, and the physical energy to enter boldly Into the lists and chal lenge the mind, the soul, the heart of man in independent action. Medicine has opened its sacred ar canum to her, law has yielded to her irresistlblo demands, the arts have crowned hor their worthy vo tress and priestess ; the pulpit Itself has bade her welcome, and educa tion has hailed her as ono of its ablest and most enthusiastic allies. She has brushed away gloriousfy tho old scorn that bound her sub ordinate in tho household of man. She stands erect on the high places witli man, add may, in devotion to a high calling, put away the Impedi ments of marriage, and go singly with honor through tho life shcJ brightens and ennobles. Marrlago Is no longer her inevit able end. Her destiny has made marrjago a'uhblec, notan obligation, and tho old contemptuous epithet Is as empty of meaning now as tho gibes of tho fool against tho teach ings of tho wise. Old maids have left names that will shine in history like stars in tho firmament. If there bo work to do, and if it be done worthily, tho world' no longer cares whether it bo performed by matron or spinster, by benedict or bachelor. Tho woman who makes tho liest use of her talents, who serves faithfully in the ways of life to which her conditions constrain or urge her, needs no other courage than good conscience to smile when she Is called an old maid. Night ingale, Bonheur, Cushman, Wlllard, are names borne by old maids, but who moro honored, more gratefully remembered than they ? Exchange, HOME EDUCATIONAL.
