A GIRL MAIL-CARRIER.
Her Route Among the Wild Portions
the Oregon Mountains.

Her Route Among the wild Portions of
the Oregon Mountains.
Oregon has woman mail carrier. Her
name, says the Portland Orcgonfdn, is Miss
Minnie Westman, and she carries Uncle
Sans mail from the head Of navigation on
Siuslaw river over the coast range noun
tains, following up the river to Hale's post
Office station, within fifteen miles of Eugene
City.
Her route is twenty miles long, and is
situated right in the heart of the noun
tains, where all the dangers and adventures
incident 70 such an occupation abound.
She carries the mail night and day and
fears nothing. She rides horseback and
carries 2 trusty revolver.
Mass Westman is a plump little brunette,
and is twenty years old Her father and
uncle operate stage line and have a con-
tion Minnie meets her father and gets the
mail from Eugene City and starts on her
round.
Miss Westman has never met with serI-
Gus mishap in the performance of her duty.
On one OF her trips last year she found
three good-sized bears in the road right in
front Of her. The horse, on espying them,
became frightened, threw his rider to the
ground and turning around, ran back the
road he came.
Miss Westman, with great presence of
mind, started after the runaway, and, over
/ taking hlm, remounted and rode right
| through the savage Gordon, and, strange TO
say, she was not attacked. Meeting some
| friends she told them Of what she had seen.
and they went TO the place and killed the
bears So far this year Miss Westman has
! met two bears. which did not molest her.

From a southern Exchange.

A country daily paper experienced a
dearth of news, aud feeling itself to be on
an excellent footing with it's readers, thus
introduced the subject:
From trustworthy source we learn
nothing for to-day. There has nothing
whatever happened in our dear old town
that we consider sufficiently important or
interesting to lay before our readers. In
the present state of the weather this will
not matter very much, as instead of perus-
ing two or three columns Of incredible acci-
dents, offers of marriage, or the course Of
politics in Bukovina, etc, etc, our esteemed
subscribers of either sex will prefer taking
walk to enjoy the fresh air, the fragrance
of the flowers, and the singing of the birds.
Should there, however, be one who has no
taste for those things, we would recon-
mend him TO take down volume OF an en-
cyclop9dia and read up the articles on hypo-
chondria and liver complaint. With the re-
turn of the wet weather we hope to present
to our readers the usual supply of highly
sensational news"

GOLD IN HIS BRAIN.
A Medical Student Makes "A Queer Disco,
cry while Dissectinc "a Head.

A Medical Student Makes Queer Discov-
cry While Dissecting "a Head.
According TO a New York correspondent
one of the medical students of the College
of Physicians and Surgeons was the lucky
finder of a piece of gold worth $50 under
very peculiar circumstances. In dissecting
a head, he had removed the outer coverings
of the scalp and muscular tissues, when
raising what seemed a lump-like tumor of
cicatricial tissue he discovered plate of
yellow metal let into the skull like a roof
door IN the roof of house. Without say
ing word to any of the surrounding stu
dents, he quietly took out a circle of bone
about the strange piece of metal, and, put
ting away his instruments, repaired to his
preceptor, to whom he showed his strange
find. On careful examination 1t proved to
be twentydollar gold-piece, which had
been hammered out smooth but still re-
tain9d its nllled edge. On the outer face of it,
which was one and a half inches across, was
the legend, "MeXlco 1S41," while within the
initials " G. d. b., q. s. A.," were engraved
rather crudely. The place which it occu-
pied i'll the skull had closed beneath it. a
hard, tibrous tissue having formed beneath
the gold plate. 1t was evident that the man,
who Is described as having been before
death half crazy, had been wounded during
the Mexican war IN the head with a piece
of shell His skull had been trephned by
an American army surgeon, and in accord
ance with the surgical ideas of the time
The trephine hole had been closed with a
fiattened out and highly polished gold coin.
This he has carried in his skull over forty
