The Oregon short Line.

Col. Hogg, President Of the Oregon
Pacific Company, who are engaged in
building railroad from Yaquina Bay
to Corvallis, has recently been inter
viewed by an Oregonian reporter;
and the Colonel became quite COM
munioative during the interview. He
tsettles several important questions.
1t has been supposed that the Oregon
Short Line company had furnished
the means with which to survey and
build tie road; but the Col. says that
the Surveying parties in Eastern Ore
gon, about whose movements there
has been so much mystery, 'ore ours,
" and not the Oregon Short Line" as
has been reported. He says that the
survey has been at the expense OF the
1Oregon Pacific, and for its use exclu-
dsively. If this is true, then Jay Gould

The people of Anthony Marion coun-
ty, are guessing whether Willie Smith s
bird is a snake or bird, as will be seen
from the following correspondence of
! the Ocala Banner: cone night this week
when Master Willie Smith carried his
mocking-bird cage into the house for
shelter, the light of the lamp enabled
him to make the startling discovery that
his bird was no longer a bird, but a
snake about two and half feet long.
One theory is that the bird was a specie
of a chrysalis, ard thus became a snake
and another is that the reptile had made
a meal Of the little songster and was so
enlarged that it could not make egress
where it had a short time previous made
an easy ingress.'

Opposition that Helps.

Brooklyn Eagle.
Most of the opposition to Gov. CIeve-
land as a candidate, which resolves it
self into the statement that "he is not
enough Of a democrat" may be dis
missed as of little consequence. What it
naturally means is that he is not enough
of partisan; that in the consideration
of measures and the distribution of pat
ronage he will not be obedicnt to the
suggestions of party leaders or conform
absolutely to the necessities of a party
machine. It is precisely for such a man
thet the popular demand is growing
stronger in these days. This imputed
n-partisanship is an important factor
of the governors strength as candidate.
He will gain votes by it, and he will not
lose votes by it. Complaints of this
kind come from Ofticeholders, Office-hun-
ters, hangers-On of the machine. They
may exert themselves to prevent Mr.
Cleveland's nomination, but they will
support him after he is nominated. They
| always vote the regular ticket. There is
nothing else for them to do.

What a Couple OF Baltimore Orioles
Did by Setting their Wits to Work

What a Couple OF Baltimore Orioles
Did by Setting their Wits to Work
New York SUI,
On the western side of Central Park,
very near 1O3d street and Eighth avenue,
stands row of elm trees, difficult to ap-
proach on account of a heavy growth of
syringa bushes around them. On a branch
of one of the trees, about sixteen feet
from the ground, pair of Baltimore
orioles set to building nest e few weeks
ago. They chose an extreme end of a
bough, with evident intention of making
it hazardous experiment for any bird
hester to attempt to modest them. But
in their excess of caution they appeared
not to observe what the few persons
whose eyes were keen enough to see the
first labors of the little architects saw
that the branch was much too slender to
support SO large a nest as an Oriole builds
When the nest Ewas about two-thirds
finished the birds saw their mistake. The
branch had been bent so low that it was
getting perilOusly near the gras. Work
was at once stopped, and the builders sat
ulose together for long time, and
seemed to be discussing the situation.
Finally, they flew side by side to bough
about fifteen inches over the one on
which their nest was, and, leaning over,
inspected the distance. They seemed to
be satisfied and, though it was growing
rapidly dusk, the birds flew away in op-
posite directions. In the morning it was
found that they had firmly secured their
habitation, and prevented the branch
from bending lower, by passing piece
of white string, which they had found
somewhere in the park, over the upper
bough, and fastening both ends of it Sc
curely to the edges of the nest The
building then went rapidly on, and the
orioles are now engaged in Matching their
eggs. Very few persons have seen the
nest, and there is fair prospect that their
skill and ingenuity will soon be rewarded
by a brood of young orioles.
The Baltimore oriOle is a very mtelll
gent bird, but New York OrnithOlOgis
who saw the nest, said he had never
seen an achievement quite equal to thu
one before. He sa Us the art of knitting
fbres or strings together is well known
tie many birds. The weaver bird of In
dia builds its nest out of a large, stronj
leaf, which it stitches together at the
edges, making a compact and closely adj
herring funnel.
