Oregon is one of the most produc-
tive states in the Union. Its vast
mineral regions contains gold, silver,
copper. iron, and coal. Its immense
tracts of grazing lands support thou
sands of cattle and sheep, and its
extensive agricultural regions pro-
duce all the cereals in abundance,
the yield per acre being, in some In
stances, the largest in the world.
Among the useful and valuable prod
ucts of the Web Foot State may be
mentioned Oregon Kidney Tea,
which has proved a boon to thou
sands afflicted with pain in the back

Making BasebalIs.

The baseball of today, as produced at
Natick, in this state, is made by hand, writes
Boston correspondent. The laborers EN-
ployed in the work are nearly all girls. The
spherical core, of the very best rubber, is
first carefully wrapped with given amount
of the most costly yarn. When the ball was
thus grown to about two-thirds of the size it
is to be, leather cover is stitched on with a
needle and waxed thread. This cover has
the effect of keeping the ball compact and in
shape, and of regulating its elasticity. Then
more yarn is wound upon it, until it is found
to turn the scales at precisely the right point
Finally the outer cover of horsehide is sewn
on and the ball, after being stamped and
again weighed, to make sure that it is just
five ounces, is wrapped in tinfoil, put into a
box with five more like it and declared ready
for sale. The cover, as an examination of a
baseball will show you, is stamped out Of the
leather in but two curiously shaped pieces,
which, sewn on the ball, together actually
cover it. This device was not invented until
1865. The cheaper grade of baseballs are
made of poorer yarn ana rubber scraps, the
latter pressed into pulp by powerful ma
chinery. The less expensive the ball, the less
yarn and more scraps will be used in its man,
ufacture-until, when you get to the Small
Boys Own" price five cents, there is moth
ing to be found inside the 1imsy cover but
melted remains of rHbber shoes

A Brave Lady.


A lady well known in Plainfield On. j.
society, who has great aversion to public
use of her name, is gifted with an amount o.
heroism, plucky and calculating courage quite
beyond that of most men, At two different
times last summer she had occasion to exer
else this trait of her character. She wa.
visiting in Wheeling, w Va, when the firs
occurred.
A little child, not more than three years
old, was playing in a narrow alleyway, anC
was seated upon the stone pavement. Turn
ing suddenly from the street came large
heavy truck, to which were attached large
Norman horses. The driver did not see the
child until too late, when, suddenly pulling
up the horses, he struck the great iron gate
that stood open at the alley entrance. The
gate, torn from its hinges, tottering, fell to
ward the helpless child, now threatened with
danger
This little Plainfield woman was passing
at the time In horror she saw the child's
danger from the now plunging horses and
falling gate. Quicker than it takes to read
it she sprang from the sidewalk to where the
child, affrighted, sat, and grasping it.
dragged it away just as the sharp iron pick
cts caught her own skirt, tearing it, but
not injuring her And she did not faint or
tremble, either, but simply pinned up her
skirt and FASTENED home, more concerned at
her d;sheveled appearance than at anything
else
A little later in the season, while on a
short visit to a New Jersey seaside resort, a
cry of fire was raised in the hotel where she
was staying. 1t was in the afternoon, and
this little Plainfield lady was taking nap
The fire alarm awakened her, and going to
the hall she found it filed with smoke. She
heard the wailing crv of a child's voice com
ing from room near by. With not a
thought of danger she CROPPED her way along
the floor where the smoke was least suffocat
ing, and made her way into the room whence
came the child's voice 1t was here that the
fire was, and the little one had fallen upon
the floor in its efforts to grope out of reach
Of harm. Half snothered she rescued the
child. The fire was soon put out, but the
little lady took chances just the same as

HINDoo PREsTIDIGITATIoN.


At Singapore on the deck of the steamer
Hindoo juggler did the mango trick. He
came on board clad in the usual turban and
loose white robe, and wearing his legs and
feet bare. His tools were mango nut, about
the size of the ordinary sea bean, pot of
earth, a short stick about as thick as the little
finger, and a cloth about four feet square
He kneeled upon the deck while doing the
trick, and we all bent over him. He poured
out the earth and heaped it into a little mound
He next held up the mango nut, then buried
it in the little mound of earth. He poured
water on it, waved his cloth over it several
times, then pulled the cloth away and sprout
about two inches long stood up fresh and
green from the mound. He lifted it out and
we all examined it and saw that it was fas-
tened to the nut. He buried the nut again.
poured on more water, pressed down thu
earth with his stick, made the passes with th |,
cloth, and removing it, disclosed a sprout
about six inches in length. He repeated this
process two or three times, and then had a
stalk about foot high He now pressed the
cloth over this, stirred the earth at its base
and again removed the cloth. There stood
mango bush two feet and a half high, with
small branches and full grown leaves, looking
as if they had just unfolded He pulled it up
and showed us the roots, grown Just as the
tree had grown. l saw this trick again CD
shore, and watched even closer, but could not
see how it was done
One day at Singapore | saw a Hindoo boy
stretch upon the ground in front of the hotel
The man who was with him spread a white
sheet over him SO that the outlines of his body
were plainly to be seen. He then drew a
knife, and, lifting it high in the air, drove it
straight through the sheet, apparently into
the body Of the boy. Blood spurted out and
the body writhed The man pushed in the
knife hard, then drew it out slowly, covered
with blood which he proceeded to wipe off
on>a Tag. He then lifted up the sheet, and
the boy arose with not a stain of blood on his
white garments and not a rent in them any

A Love Affair of Schubert.

The Countess Caroline, an enthusiastic
girl Of great beauty, became the object Of
Schubert's romantic passion. His exterior
was anything but that of an ideal lover
Rude, unshapely features, thick nose, coarse,
protruding mouth, and a stumbling, awk
ward figure, were redeemed only by eyes of
uncommon splendor and depth The mex
perienced maiden, belonging to naughty
family, hardly understood the devotion of
the humbly born genius. Only once he was
on the verge OF q full revelation. She asked
him why he had dedicated nothing to her
With abrupt, passionate, intensity of tone,
Schubert answered: Whats the use of
that Everything belongs to you" This
brink OF confession seems to have frightened
him from any further intercourse with the
family, yet he never forgot his beautiful
dream, or loved another woman. -CaSsells

How Paducah Vas Named.

The city of Paducah, KY, has, notice,
been coming TO the front recently, and con-
siderable has been printed in the newspapers
concerning the place. In a recently published
article an attempt was made to give history
Of the city, and the writer, lacking informa-
ton as to the origin of the name, fell back on
that most convenient makeshift, ian old In
dian chief Now, there may have been an
Indian chief with a name similar to Paducah
but old time river men have an altogether
different idea OF the origin of the name. It
is this:
When steamboats, first began navigating
the Ohio river they depended on wood for
fuel, and wood yards were located at conven-
lent points. One Of these wood yards was
located at the mouth of the Tennessee river
by an Irishman named Patrick Dugan. or
course he was commonly called Pat Dugan
Pat Dugan's wood yard and the few shanties
occupied by himself and his woodchoppers
eventually grew to thriving city, and what
more natural than that the original name
should DO retained, and Paducah is a very
natural corruption of the ancient and honor
able name, Patrick Dugan.-Steamboat Mate
