How TO Hang Pictures.

Oae of the cardinal principals neces-
sary to learn about hanging pictures is
the fact that the light on pictare
should come from the same side as the
light in the picture.
A picture highly worked up in de
Tail should be hung closer to the eye
than strong, broad composition, in
which all the parts are put on in
masses.
Pictures Immediately on the line of
average sight should be hung fat on
the wall, while those aboyeit should be
slightly tipped forward
Large pictures in heavy frames
should never be hung over sofls or
chairs that are placed close to the wall
Groups Of pictures can only be effec-
tive when there is harmony in subject
aad color, and similarity in framing
No grosser absurdit;es are committed
in the way of picture decorations than
in the adornment of walls OF the aver
age dining room.
Representations of strings of fish
just hauled from the water and seeming
yet to gasp for breath, of groups OF
dead birds and noble deer struggling
in the death agony or fleeing for life
before their pursuers, are far from
appetising, and a perpetual plea for
the doctrine of vegetarianism. But
few pictures should ever be hung in
the dining room, and the greatest care
should be taken in their selection.
Family pictures have no business
in any room in the house bnt the fam
lily. No one is interested IN them ex-
cept the immediate family, and not
once in hundred thousand times is a
family picture a thing of beauty, or cal
culated to embellish the barest wall.
Marriage certificates, Masonic cirti6-
Gates, or anything of that kind, are not
pictures at all, and should never have
a frame about them.

Ingersoll's Match.

Ingersoll has met his match in one
Father Phelan, of ST. Louis. The Kan
sas City Times, in publishing his dedi,
catory address Of cathedral, says his
| delivery has the eloquent charm and
subtle influence of Ingersoll's oratory.
In the course of his remarks the rev
erend Father said:
''If there is no hereafter, then life is
one long debauch, and the highest edu-
cation is to know how to find aud how
best to enjoy pleasure. If there is no
hereafter, virtue is deceit and heroism
is lie. See that young man bleeding
from hundred wounds. He died in
defense of sisters honor. If there is
no hereafter, that noblest of deeds will
60 forever unrewarded See that young
sister in the hospital bending over a
victim of the plague; tomorrow she
will succunb, an1sa rapid ride and a
hasty sepnc!ture will reward her for
her devotion. IF there is no hereafter,
her charity met a sorry reqnittal. See
that man holding child from the win
dow of a burning building; he holds it
long enough for sturdy companion to
grasp it from below, and he then falls
back into his fiery tomb. IL there is
To hereafter, such sacrifice is heartless
and unmeaning cruelty. See that troop
of soldiers marching by to the beating
of the drums. Their country has called;
they go to defend her honor on the
battlefield. They follow their flag into
the thick of the fight, and when the
bugle sounds the retreat few turn from
the carnage. Those brave soldiers die
with their faces to the foe, and a smile
was stamped on their faces in death.
Ii there is no hereafter, their heroism
was suicide, and their courage mock
cry of fste. Earthly life is closed in
death; the grave terminates all consort
and association with things Of time;
but waited above the bier, the wreck,
the tomb. floats the sweet voice of Col,
saying: i am the life.

Grants Kind words.
General Grant to General Buckner

Gcneral 0irGns TO General buckner.
81 have witnessed since my sickness,
said General Grant, ':just what wished
to see ever since the war--harnony
and good feeling between the sections.
I have always contended that if there
had been NOBODY left but the soldiers
we should have had peace in year.
There are only two that know of that
do not seem to be satisfied on the south
ern side; and we have some on ours
who failed to accomplish as much as
they wished, or who did not get warmed
up to the fight until it was all over,
who have not had quite full satisfaction.
The great majority, too, of those who
did not 60 into the war have long since
grown tired of the long controversy.
We may now well look forward to a
perpetual peace at home and a national
strength that will screen us from any
foreign complication.

Our Cemeteries.


EDITOR REVIEW: Your journal is
taking such an active interest in the
welfare and progress of Roseburg that
L feel encouraged to speak my mind
regarding matter of general impor-
tance. | think it is disgraceful the
way our public cemeteries are kept.
They seem to have no attention what
ever except by personal effort in a few
isolated cases. Now could not a sex
ton be regularly employed. Tt would
not cost much and am sure that one
Is needed. Let MS not neglect the dead
any longer but have public meeting
called, an ASSOCIATION formed and our
cemeteries made to show proper res
pect to our friends who have crossed
the mystic river. A FRIEND.

Miss Cleveland has settled the moot
ed question of who is the first lady in
the land. She settled it herself in the
way that meets public applause. One
day when there was some house-clean-
ing to be done in the Executive man
sion she tied towel around her head,
put on an old calico dress, and with
broom. and dust-pan In hand, went
from room to room and male things
lively for while. The servants, who
had never witnessed such q scene in
the old mansion, stood aghast, but that
didn't deter her from going through
with the work. OF course there is
going 10 be a terrible outcry on the
part of polite society. But that will
not dethroae Miss Cleveland from the
proud position which the American
people with loud voice will accord to
her. The masses of the people will
stand by her and uphold her as the
first lady of the land. Such homely
common sense as she. displays is right
up to American ideas. Tie woman
who knows how to take care of her
home is the only queen that Americans

A Washington dispatch of the 18th

A Washington dispatch Of the 18th
has the following concerning recent
decision of Judge Doady. The general
land Office has received information that
Judge Deady, of the Oregon circuit
court, has decided thtt presumption en-
tries can only be Cancelled by proceed
ings in the courts. It has been the
practice of the land Office to cancel pre-
emption entries upon sufficient proof
of noncompliance of the law, or want
of good faith on the part of the pre-
emptor. Acting Commissioner Walker
has officially informed his informant
that the practice and views Of the law
followed and entertained in the general
land office will not be changed before
the supreme court IF the United States
shalt have had an opportunity of pass
ing upon the points raised by Judge
Dcady.

Either our young men are growing

Younger Before the war men of forty
and forty-fve were not classed as young
men in this country. They we've called
middle-aged men. But now nothing IS
more common than to hear a man of

change. The average of human life is
lengthening, and as the increasing re-

will be considered young, if we meas

Decides For The People.

Another decision which strikes terror
to the railroad corporations, and makes
the masses correspondingly happy, was
lately promulgated by Acting Com
missioner Walker, of the general land
Office, who has declined TO issue any
more patents to the Northern Pacific
railroad, pending decision fixed the
legal status of the road in this re-
gard. He follows the rule laid down
hy Commissioners Sparks in relation to
the California L. Oregon and Oregon &
California roads. The question at issue
briefly stated, is that the road was not
completed within the time required by
law, and that until Congress takes
definite action in one way or the other
no steps should be taken to place the
matter beyond the power of the legis-
lative branches of the Government to
protect public rights. This decision
has direct application to the 0. IL G. K.
r. also, and the prospects are favorable
that it will not be given the land it
claims south of Roseburg. Thus again
has the administration shown that it
is laboring for the peoples interests.

LONDON, March l4-Senor Martinez,
the Chilian Minister at London, denies
that the relations between Chill and Bra
zil are at present critically strained. An
official dispatch from Rio Janeiro, dated
yesterday, says that the complaints made
by the Gillian Government against Senior
NettO, President Of the International Arbi-
tratiOn Court,O on the Peruvian war claims,
have been admitted as well founded,
and that Dom Pedro, the Brazilian En-
pArOr, has despOsed Senior NettO from his
office. Chill accused Senior Netto of sys-
tematically judging against Chill with
an utter disregard Of all the precedents
of international jurisprudence. The with
drawal of SerOr NettO from the Arbitra-
tiOn Court viii not affect the
decisions of the arbitrators alresdy made,
not even those made under the direct in
tiuence Of Senior Netto as President of the
court. These decisions altogether assess
Chill for $29, ,O00, 900 damages in favor of
Peru. In some quarters Senior Netto's
retirement is pronounced unjust, and it is
attributed to fear by Brazil of q threat
ened Chili-Argentine war alliance

Baltimore Manufacturing Interests
Gloomy Over the Misfortune.
BALTIMORE, March 1.-THE failure of
Pope, Cole & Co. has made q serious
impression upon the industrial interests
of Baltimore. The copper works gave
employment to several hundred opera
tives, who in a short time may be added
to the already large number of idle men
in the city, and it is impossible
now to predict what will be the
outcome. An effort will be made to con-
tinue business. Morton Stewart, who
has been made trustee, has large business
experience, and hope is expressed that he
will be able to straighten out the entangle-
ment. Pope, Cole & Co. had large con-
tracts for copper ore at prices not
warranted by the present low price of
copper, and an adherence TO which would
have entailed much greater loss.
Pope s. Cole are understood to have ac-
cepted loan of large amount Thursday
morning, when it's meeting of creditors
was called later in the day. The liabilities
of the firm are said to be considerably
above the amount stated Yesterday, and
may reach 5000, 900, its Indebtedness Sc

ASSIGNMENT OF A PUBLISHER.
NEW YORK, March 14.-Frank p.
TOusey, a publisher at No. 81 North Moore

to about $4,000. Among the preferred
creditors was the American News Com
pany for $4,000.
MIR. TOusey was formerly in partner
ship with n. L.-MunrOe, and afterwards
OF Tousey II Small, who dissolved in 1878.
Since then he has been alone. His state
ment of July last showed a surplus Of
11,724, but about year ago he was ar
rested at the instance of Anthony Com
stock, and about 10000 copies of immoral
books were seized and burned in the
presence of the District Attorney. Suit
against him was discontinued in con-
sideration of his giving up over two tons
of plates to be melted up. This crippled
him pecuniarily, and he never recovered
fully from the loss.

Opposition Orators Answered by the
Chancellor in the ReichstaS.
BERLIN, March 14-In the Reichstag
to-day, Herr Richter advised the House
to grant a subsidy only to the East Asiatic
line, which Prince Bismarck had de-
clared would be accessible as a first in
stallment. The experience thereby
gained would enable the Reichstag to de-
eide whether or not to grant the other
subsidies proposed. Prince Bismarck
replied to Herr Richter, saying that he
Richter represented the opinions of the
Parliamentary minority and not toe Ger
man people. The project to grant subsi-
dies to steamship lines had other objects
than to merely establish communication
with new colonies. Continuing, the
Chancellor said that Herr Richter
had expressed pleasure at the restoration
Of the entente c0rdlGle with England.
This would have been attained much
easier if Herr Richter's action had not
hampered the government. in regard to
the assertion of Herr WnthOrst that
everything was in full blaze between
England and Germany. Prince Bis
marck begged II refer that gentle
man to Premier Glldstone's recent speech
in the House OF Commons. Those par
liamentary groups, the speaker con-
tinued, whose ideal could Cnly be real
ized d by war, ought not 20 carelessly and
baselessly describe Germapy's relations
with n fri ndly power as in a state of
jeopardy. The dispute with Erglan1 was
settled, and he could assure the House
that he had not sent Count Herbert Bis
marck to London for the purpose of pick
ing a quarrel. The Chancellor concluded
by expressing the hope that the mission
of the German nation would be better
understood by the rising generation than
the present one. The debate was ad-
iOurned until Monday
