Tramps, by the singles, pairs and
dozens, are arriving in this city
every day. Some of them stay for
two or three days, lounging around
in the vicinity Of the Willamette
evaporatOr. Their custom Is to
hang around under the trees on the
grass until after dark aud then
make rush for the evaporation
building. They are not fond of
night air and seek shelter when
they are ready forsleep. Last night
they were holding forth in great
number and as usual made eE c1folt
to secure quarters mt the evaporation.
But Mr.. CJol;. the engineer,
was too many for them and
quickly dispersed the gang. AZ
two O'Clock this morning he
heard the wanderers and saw
them strike match in the building
At this he brought forth his Win
chester ana gave the Ofdcf 10
nlagch-and they matched. This
tramp nuisance is once more becom-
ing "A serious one.
State fair time il nearly here and
these Knights of the rail and tie are

\ Coal Well.

The mining company formed at Cor
wallis to bore for coal have a borer
at work since Wednesday on the
farm of Mr.. Wyatt. He has got
down 100 feet, but can 20 no further
without casing the well, on account
of its caving. 1t is probable that
the well will be cased with IRON and
the casing continued. A soft soapy
rock is the last thing reached. Mr..
Sloper, the borer, has contract to
go as deep as the company wants
him to 90. He gets 81 25 foot for
the first 100 feet and $3.50 for every
foot after that. If this well should
produce no result, we suppose that
another well will be sunk in another
place. Benton Leader.

A Warehouse Burned.

Downs Station, on the narrow
gauge and about three miles from
Silverton, was the scene of a con-
siderable conhagration on Thursday
night. The wheat warehouse of
James Downs by some means took
fire and burned to the ground, des-
pite the efforts Of the people to save
1t. The loss will be quite heavy, as
the warehouse was full of
wheat, both old and new. The
JOURNALS informant was unable
to give the exact amount of the loss
or the origin Of the fire. The fire
was discovered ut about nine p. m.
and the building was a smouldering
ruin in n very short time.
LATER.-It Is since learned that Il
second warehouse, adjoining that of
Mr.. Downs and owned by c. n.
Scott of the Narrow Gauge was also
burned ut the same time. The
two warehouses were so close to-
gether that neither could be saved.

A vegetarian's Experience.

Mr.. John Burroughs, the naturalist and
author, who gave up the use Of meat some
three years ago, is quoted as expressing him
self in the following manner, in answer to the
question of what apparent effect the omission
of meat eating had upon his health: ~ find l
need less physical exercise" said Mr.. Bur
roughs, shat my nerves are much steadier,
and that have far fewer dull, blank, depres-
sing days; in fact, all the functions of my
body are much better performed by abstain
ing from meat In summer l make very fIQe
use of milk; at other seasons l cannot touch
it. eat one egg a day, usually for break
fast; 1 eat oysters, fish and fowl, oatmeal,
hominy, beans and great deal of fruit of all
kinds. When l can get good buttermilk
want no better drink There is great virtue
in buttermilk. Two years ago gave up the
use of coffee, and think l am greatly the
gamer by it. Certain periodical headaches
with which was afflicted l attributed to
coffee. If missed my coffee in the morning
was sure to have a bad headache. Since
have left off coffee my headaches are much
lighter, and the character of them has entire
ly changed; they leave me on the going down
of the sun.

tons, apparently without a suspicion or It's
fallacy On the part of the public's instruc-
tors: Fit strip of board into the window
casing at the bottom, under the lower sash,
so as to raise the sash two or three inches,
and the thin space between the panes, where
the sashes lap over each other, will be open
above and below, affording egress and in
gress to the air in vertical directions, while
the board excludes horizontal draft that
would strike person near the window.
The objection to this plan is, according to
Sanitary Era, that it is built exactly wrong
side up, in defiance of the law of gravitation,
and will not work. 1t contemplates the exit
of the warm and rarefied air of the room
downward through the colder air between
the sashes, and expects the still colder and
heavier air outside to climb upward through
the,lighter inclosed air and tumble over the
top of the sash into the room. The amount
of air exchanged between outside and inside
in this way will be hardly perceptible unless
a strong breeze blows against the window.
The way to get ventilation through this in
terspace, and truly excellent way, is to push
up the lower sash to the topof the casing, and
pull the upper sash down within few inches
of the sill, stopping the gap at the bottom
with the board above mentioned. The outer
air will then find downward entrance, and
the lighter air within will escape upward.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.
The Table Manners of Children-Some
Safe Rules to Teach Them,

The Table Manners of Children-Some
Safe Rules to Teach Them.
There is diversity of opinion as to the age
at which young children should be allowed
at the table, but a very good rule, advised by
Mary B. Munroe in Good Housekeeping, is
to let them be brought in when the dessert is
served This can be made a real pleasure,
not only to the children but to the parents.
The little ones have had their dinner earlier,
and the little taste of sweetmeats given by
their mothers permission can do no harm.
We are referring, of course, to babies and
young children, say under years
l believe, says Mr.. Monroe, in children
being brought to the table, for it is necessary
that they should begin as early as possible tc
learn table manners; and nowhere can they
be taught so we'll as at the family table.
Here are a few good old rules that can be
safely followed: Give the child seat that
shall be strictly its own. Teach it to take it:
seat quietly; to use its napkin properly; tc
wait patiently to be served TO answer prompt
ly; to say thank you; if asked to leave the
table for forgotten article or for any pur-
pose to do so at once; never to Interrupt;
and never to contradict; never to make re
marks about the food, such as 81 saw that
turkey killed and how he did bleed, " as once
heard a little boy remark at a Thanksgiving
dinner.
Teach the child to keep his plate in order
not to handle the bread or to drop food or
the cloth and floor; TO always say Excuse
me, please" to the mother when at home, and
to the lady or hostess when visiting, if leaving
the table before the rest of the party; to fold
its napkin and to put back its chair or push il
close to the table before leaving, and after
leaving the table not to return.

Novelties in Shoes.

For wearing with the directoire costumes
there is neat indoor shoe, with high in
step flap and a good sized buckle securing
the side pieces, which meet in the middle.
These shoes are made in French kid or patent
leather. For evening wear there are some
pretty shoes in the Bijou form, with satin
showing between the rows of the narrowest
of narrow ribbons, crossing the toe cap at
their own width apart. These are especially
made to wear with MORE dresses, as they
match better than satin, and have much
greater durability than MORE; but they are
greatly worn with ball gowns of all kinds.
Most Of them have paste ornament, and the
two most in vogue are the rosette, with a
good sized paste center, and smaller ones set
round, or two stones set together These lit
tie paste ornaments are wonderfully brilliant
and at night look particularly well on white,
black or any colored shoe. There are some
most inviting looking bedroom slippers, in all
colors, composed of quilted satin, lined with
plain satin, and good sized rosettes of gath
cred satin in the front. In red these slippers
are very nice

When the Hair Grows Thin.

If your hair is thin and threatens to fall
or the parting is growing inconveniently
wide, let it down at night and massage the
scalp. Rub it, gather the loose skin between
the fingers, pinch it a little, invent exercise
for it with the tips of the fingers. Give it
some work to do every day and brush it.
Part it on the side at night and give the day
parting a rest No treatment of this kind
will produce spectacular or sudden results,
but if there be no disease of the hair follicles
and the general health is good, it will often
work wonders in a twelvemonth.

Turpentine Baths for Rheumatic Pains.
Make a concentrated emulsion of black
soap, 200 grammes, add thereto 100 or l2O
grammes Of turpentine, and shake the whole
vigorously until beautiful creamy emulsion
is obtained. For bath take half of this
mixture, which possesses an agreeable pine
odor. At the end of five minutes there is a
dimiuution of the pains and a favorable
warmth throughout the whole body. After
remaining in the bath a quarter of an hour
the patient should get into bed, when prick
ling sensation, not disagreeable, however, is
felt over the entire body; then, after nap,
he awakens, according to Practical Medicine,
which is authority for the above, with a
marked diminutIon in the rheumatic pains.

YACHTING COSTUME.

In the first cut is shown a Redfern costume
which needs no description. In the second
cut appears a stylish boating costume in plain
and striped serge, with leather waistband
buckles and straps The sailor hat matches
the gown in two shades of straw and in the
ribbon bows
For yachting, there are tan and dark red
Russia leather, lacing up the front, much in
the style of the tennis shoes, but with heel.
For country walking, the brogue boot, with
It's broad sole, serviceable heel and fancy
galosh work, is more worn than any other
kind with those who are fastidious about
their chaussure, but at the same time there
arc many other styles, mostly made with the
moderately pointed toe.

A REDFERN COSTUME.

The inevitable directoire revers and the
Tapped empire bodices have appeared in ten
mis- dresses, and, according to Harper's Bazaar,
there is no better fashion for them than the
belted blouse waist of last year made with
full sleeves and worn under a striped BLAZER
that buttons once high on the chest, then
slopes away sharply to the waist line
Red, white and blue are the colors of
yachting gowns this season, all three appear
ing in one gown lately, but without reference
to the prevalence of these colors in this cen
tennial year, as it was made for the Princess
of Wales originally. The skirt and waist are
of navy blue serge, with white wool vest and
white moire revers, the red lines and paler
blue appearing in stripes on the vest and on
the sides of the lower skirt where the deep
blue opens as if to show the panels. The
white or black tarpaulin hat in sailor shape
is made up very lightly for summer use, and
has merely plain ribbon band with the
yachts name on it, and a flag of the club on
either side.
A yachting jacket of blue pilot cloth cut
loose in front and fitted behind is useful
garment at sea, and needs only the deep sailor
collar and stitched or corded edges as its
finish, yet many are trimmed on the corners
of the fronts, the collars and the flowing cuffs
with braided stars or anchors. Other outside
sacks are shaped similar to reeffng jackets
with wide back, nearly straight and double
breasted front fastened by two rows of but
tons, either gilt or silver, with anchors upon
them A sailors cap with wide fiat crown,
and the band marked with the name Of the
yacht, is worn with these REFERS jackets.
Nothing is more comfortable than jersey
either when playing tennis or when at sea,
and these are now made in fine wool webbing
in precisely such styles as modiStes use for
waists of PoH7ns
