Badly Hurt.

Early this morning, as Mr.. Will
liam Pearson and wife, who reside
on their farm near Marion, were
coming to town, they met with an
accident that came near being seri-
GUS. Mr.. Pearson had in his team
a young horse that was unaccus-
toned to the road. Near Mr.. Cooks
place, they met another team, and
the young horse becoming frighten-
ed, suddenly lunged to the side of
the road, and forced one of the
wheels OF the wagon over stump,
throwing Mrs. Pearson out upon
the hard road. She struck upon her
head and shoulders, and received a
number of painful bruises besides
her arm has been numb ever since
as though there was other more Sc
rious trouble. Tney came on to Sa-
lem and a physician was consulted,
who thought Mrs. Pearsons's injur-
les not very serious, but she certainly
had a very narrow escape.

AN IMPORTANT MOVE.
Silver Falls City to be an Educational
Center.

\ JOURNAL reporter learned this
afternoon, too late to get full parti-
culars in regard to the matter, that
the new town of Silver Falls City,
at the upper falls of Silver Creek,
was soon to be given an excellent
boom by the establishment of
summer normal and art school
there.
The Willamette University of this
city, is at the head of the movement,
and they have been negotiating, for
some time with Col. Thos. c.
Smith, the proprietor of Silver Falls
City, for the purchase of block
and a half near the falls, and the
negotiations have about reached the
closing point. 1t is understood that
the University has long been con-
sidering the establishment of n sum-
mer school, on the plan adopted by
eastern colleges, at some point that
would give to the students all the
advantages of favored summer
resort, and at the same time good
place where they could prosecute
their studies during the holidays,
especially with relation to normal
work, and the study of art and
botany.
Silver Falls City has commended
itself, and rightly, to the president
of the Willamette University, Prot.
Van Scoy, as it would give to the
students all the eXhilarating in
tluences of pure mountain air, and
grand scenery, together with the
quiet peacefulness so necessary to
the students hours of study. 1t is
likely, should the University con-
clude to establish its school there,
boarding hall and institute building,
costing about $4,000, will be erected
this summer, and other improve
ments would follow.

We believe, however that those
trees that reach maturity will be
long lived and healthy. 1t is
so superior a fruit that one can afford
to lose a few trees. For canning it
is next to the peach itself and as a
dried plum it has no equal.

prunes. This is the only rival the
Italian prune has in Oregon. 1t is
more hardy and more prolific, but
smaller. 1t is the gilt edged prune
of California.
All of these have been set out with
the greatest care, the eye following
the rows of young trees with their
spring foliage stretching away in
the distance like silken threads.
Not a tree misplaced, and so far as
our visit extended, not dead tree.
Three teams are now busy cultivat-
ing the soil, which is as mellow and
moist and clear of weeds as heart
could desire. For evidence of what
thorough tillage will do for young
trees, one need go no further. A
force of eight men are employed.
Mr.. Wallace has been enabled to

Gus machines made for cultivating
the soil, and has, after due deliber-
alton, made his selections. Others
will do well to study his methods
and results, profting by his eXper-

The Stock Will Suffer.

yesterday. Mr.. Stain says he got as
near the lake as plateau, Grass Valley,
and there met the last Storm, which laid
one foot and half of new snow on top
of that which already covered the
ground, and that in some places in the
valley there is five feet of snow. Cattle
men are deploring this fact. as their
supply of bay has just about run out
and they have no way of securing feed
for their stock. Unless the weather
breaks up soon, and the snow meIts,
the loss of stock from starvation will be
very great.-Manti Sentinel.

Paner for Desk Use.

Here is my way Of blocking paper for
desk use: take pile half an inch or
less in thickness of paper cut to one size,
place heavy weight on top close to one
edge of the whole length, and then ap-
ply a thick coat of mucilage along the
smooth edges of the sheets thus pressed
together. / leave the blocks standing fif-
teen or twenty minutes, and again apply
the mucilage, allowing it to dry thor
oughly. l think this way of blocking
paper for every day use is far more salts
factory than the ordinary method of using
paper binding. inasmuch as the sheets
separate more easily. l keep in my desk
blocks of various sizes-the largest for
writing extended articles; others, Of
smaller size, for briefer items; and others,
smaller still, for notes or memoranda.
Following this plan, it is impossible for a
drawer to get Uttered up with torn and
creased pieces; and while l am writing
the block will keep its position without
weighing. If the pad is more than half
an inch thick it is clumsy.-"M. c." in

Height of European Soldiers.

It has generally been believed that the
reduction in average height of Frencl
soldiers which followed Napoleon's wars
in those campaigns, made all of those
soldiers the shortest in Europe. But, &C
cording to high medical and military
authority in Russia, the minimum height
of the Russian and the French conscript
is about equal-fve feet; while in most
other European countries the minimum
ranges from five feet one inch to five feet
three inches.-Boston Budget.

owed that marvellous tint which was the
wonder and despair OF the French ladies of
the time. The wife of Napoleon used to
have boiling milk poured over basinful
of violet flowers, and with this decoction
she bathed her face and neck every morn

brought to light than the Partisan ladies

all cut down and allow no more to be
planted, but still they flourish and bring
sickness and death. May is their full
blooming time, and consequently every

Streets of American Cities.

A writer in La Nature remarks that the
streets of American cities have been laid
out with the tape line and at right angles.
This, he observes, is very fine from
geometrical standpoint, but carries with
it very serious consequences from an
economical point of view. In fact, if we
walk along the two sides of square in
stead of following diagonal, the distance
is increased in the proportion of 40 per
cent; that is to say, instead of walking
100 feet, we walk 40. Hence loss of
time, strength and money. Professor
Haupt has calculated that the opening of
two diagonal streets in Philadelphia
1850, 900 inhabitants) would reduce the ex-
IRENE distances by one mile and aquarter.
The annual number of passengers carried
by the cars being 125,0OO,OO0, the total
saving would reach about $4,000 per
mile travelled. The passengers would gain
3, 565 years in time and would save more
than 100000 horse power in motive
power.-Scientifc American.

ULTIMATE FAILURE.

However much my arrows have fallen Short
Or swerved aside, or overshot that mark
Far set, whose circles center but in truth,
This the desire-the one unfading dream
The hope of my young manhood-so to stand,
So aim, so loose the tense expectant string,
That, at the last, each winged shaft may fly
Unto the heart Of truth unerringly.
Yet-though soothe the sting of i'll success
With thoughts of error, lurking in the grass,
Nursing a wound some wide flown dart has
given
A fear dwells ever at my Utmost soul,
That, haply, ere my growing skill has won
The rize-perfection-Im may feel the bow
Break at full bend, or hear its worn cord part,
Or find the CULVER empty at my belt
