Last night quite good audience

Boyd company in His Natural

throughout the audience was
delighted. Rounds of applause fol-

vivid description of convict life
among the red coats, and is filled
with tragic scenes. AS Richard
Devine Mr.. Maubury is powerful
actor and carried his hearers with
him. lingo Tyrrell; author of the

very best, and the old man

Oregon Schools.

Prof. McElroy says the school
population of Oregon is from $1,000
to 81, 900. This includes all between
the age of 4 and 20 years. OF this
number there are $4,000 enrolled in
the schools with an average attend
ance of about 1000. There are from
$500 to 1000 more of school age in
the state this year than last, as Il
large number of new comers have
settled in Oregon. The increase in
the number of those who attend is
about 5000 more this year than it
was last. This is large increase.

In For Two Years.

Yesterday Sheriff Hinshaw OF
Baker county brought to the peni-
tertiary Milton Eddy, for term OF
two years for the larceny of horse.
During the trial his counsel and the
attorneys for the state asked the
clemency of the court as they he
lieved the rights of society and the
best interests of the state would be
best subserved by imposing such a
sentence as would be refocmatory.
Many circumstances surrounding
the case tended to the belief that the
young man was not as guilty as
some persons would make it appear
and that he was ''more sinned
against than SHINING" The young
man standing before judge and jury
when asked if he had anything 10
say why sentence should not be I'M
posed, said II have nothing 10
say, your honor, only that i am IN
nocent." And it may be stated
that those best acquainted with him
believe that he is.

Oregon Always Smiling.

That we may better appreciate our
own position it may be well to quote
few sentences from a letter from
Missouri. Here we always have rain
when we need it and sun when it is
needed. But in Missouri now they
"are having nasty, dry, cold north
wind and not drop of rain since
about August 18th. Dust is every
where and shoe top deep" How
delicious" our own genial climate
is in comparison.

nronth and nelnge Predicted.

In Topeka, Kansas, lives Prof. c.
c. Blake, who for many years has
most successfully calculated weather
beforehand. Months before they
would occur he has prophecied floods,
drouths, and excessive heat or eX-
treme cold spells. For years we have
noted his warnings and have in
variably found him to be correct.
We read his predictions for 1889 and
study them with considerable alarm.
Hesays next summer will be themost
fearful one ever known for deluges
and drouths. His calculations are
all made from an astronomical basis.
He says he fears a famine and has
twice thrown away all his long care
full calculations covering months and
months only to once more pick them
up and to a third time reach the
same conclusion.

Apparently in Cycles.

1t has often and only too truly
been said that great calamities and
misfortunes never come singly, but
are grouped together. 1t would
seem sometimes that season of ac-
cidents had full sway. For instance,
a few weeks ago, all remember the
great number of destructive fires
that swept over the towns Of this
region. Every morning you would
pick up the daily paper only to
read of II great contlagration some
where near us. See unfortunate
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and re-
tarded 10y smallpox, disastrous fires
break out only too add to the city's
ill luck. Does it not seem as though
deluges and drouths, fires and
scourges, murders and suicides oc-
Cured in cycles?
One of yesterdays specials noted
the circumstance of John Heniz of
Silverton having read the account of
another Silverton suicide ana re-
marking that he would be the next
to go. Can it be that the insane
thought of suicide is contagious,
too? So it would seem, from the
great number of cases of self-destruc-
ton that are noted each week. Let
us hope not, and that this phase Of
insanity has run its sands.

From Tacoma, Seattle and Walla
Walla, in Washington territory, and
from numerous cities in Oregon,
especially Albany, come complaints
of the doings of footpads and thieves
of high and low degree. Small
burglaries ndsneak-thief operations
have been frequent for several weeks
past in Portland, and it looks as if
the police officers are powerless to
check the evil. There should be a
determined and well-directed effort
to rid the city and state Of thieves,
tramps and footpads, even though it
may be necessary to mortify our
sensitive guardians of the peace
