THE EU4EKA OF CANVAS ENTER
TAINMENTS.

The recent consolidation of the Sells
brothers with the Barrett shows establishes
new era in itinerary exhibitions. Each, of
these organizations has been annually cul-
minating in all things which make displays
of this character attractive, and had grown
to be such formidable competitors for pat
ronage that all others Stunned their routes
and scrupously avoided contact. Such be-
ing the case in the seasons that have passed,
the circumstance of these monarchs OF tent
ed amusements having joined their forces
and consolidated their great menageries, cir
.cuses and hipp ,dromes, creates an exhibi-
tion so immeasurably superior IN the multi
plcity and merit Of its attractions as to be
scarcely conceivable. The hippodromatic
features will be exceptionally elegant, and
the Roman chariot races, gladiatorial con-
tests and other athletic sports will be pre-
sented on scale OF magnitude never at
tempted since Caesars days. The menag-
erie, by consolidation, is with scarcely a
doubt the largest as well as the best selected
in the world. This great amusement con
solidation exhibits in Corvallis Thursday,
June 10th.

.AIRLCULTUR.ALS STATISTICS.

The statistician of the agricuftu-
raj department has issued his re-
port for May, which contains some
interesting information regarding
tile. agricultural products of the
European nations. The report
shows that the foreign markets are
not dependent upon the United
States for their supplies. The i'm
port of wheat from the United
States is only a small part of the
wheat consumed in Europe each
year, and the same can be said ot
corn and most other grains. Thus
in case the, home market is I'M
sound, the American farmer:might
find some trouble in disposing Of
his produce, says the Telegram.
The report also shows that
American farmers should give
more attention to the cultivation
Of flax and hemp. Foreign fibers
are imported into the United
States in large quantities, and by
growing at home millions of dol
lars could be saved. 1t is sale
that. the imported fibers, with
their manufacture, altogether
amount in value to more than two
thirds as much as the cotton ex
portation of the United States
The report contains valuable adj
vice, which tends to induce oul
our farmers to become more eX
perimental and depart from the
odd paths which they have beer
following.

CLETEL.A,t.D THE MIN.

f'he New York Press has col
lected from some thirty of the
most important democratic papers
throughout the counties, their
opinions as to the most prominent
democratic candidate for the pres
idency in 1892, and two-thirds OF
them declare for Cleveland. The
St. Louis Republic says: "The cam
didate of the democratic party in
1892, if he comes from New York
will be Grover Cleveland. If
New York refuses to present Mr..
Cleveland, the candidate will come
from the West" The New York
Sun, which does not like Cleve-
land, and insists that he is respon-
sible for putting the democracy
out of power, ridecules the predic-
ton, but does not deny it, and the
Columbus, Ga, Enquirer Sun,
says: ':At this time Mr.. Cleveland
is undoubtedly the foremost dem
ocrat in this country, and the in
.dications are that his popularity
will increase rather than diminish
during the next three years"
The papers that indorse Cleve-
land intimate that the issue of
1892 will be the same as that of
1888, and it is principally for this
reason that they desire the ex-
president to lead them once more
in their fight Tor the principles OF
free trade. There is 10 issue on
which the republican party would
rather join battle than this one
and it is hardly necessary to say
that there is no leader the oppo,
sition party could select that
would be more preferable to the
protectionists. 1t is to be hoped
that nothing will arise to work 6
change in the present frame O.
mind of the democracy.

THE state of Minnesota in max
ing drunkenness crime deserves
eommendation of those conserya-
tors of public morals who woul6
make us saints by statutory enact
ment. Minnesota should further
add to her record by making dys
pepsia crime, for it is fact thai
the ills entailed by this ailment
caused by wrong habits of eati ng
are more numerous, more danger
GUS and more disagreeable, thar
those which result from wrong
habits of drinking and the crime
of drunkenness.-Alta.

ACCORDING to- the Jewish idea,
the only true way to stem the tide
of intemperance is to be personally
temperate; the man must be pos
sessed Of the moral consciousness
that he violates the law of his be
ing by going to excess in drinking
and the same might be said of eat
ing or any other natural habit.
But to dictate to a man that he
shall not eat or drink is tyranny.
AS to our own people it may re
truly said that we constitute vast
temperance organization, and that
this is the result of the teachings
of our religion and laws. We do
not, however, deprive ourselves Of
q rational ndulgence in the good
things of this life. We fear there
b lack of moral vitality in the
Christian system of religion, and
this, in our opinion, is the vital
cause of the prohibition craze and
the condition Of society that pro-
duces it.-Rabbi Levy.

SELLS BRoRHERs AND BARRETT.

The columns to-day conspicupusly dis.
play the advertisements of this rema, kable
amusement coalition; whose speedy coming
they announce. 1t is scarcely necessary to
say to amusement patrons that for eighteen
years the Sells Brothers have been noted as
having an equestrian, geological, and hippo.
dromatic entertainment everywhere recog-
nized as being at the head and front among
reputable tented exhibitions. S. H. Bar.
rett also has been not whit behind the
Sells Brothers in catering to the amusement
of the populace. The circumstances that
these two formidable shows have joined
their forces, and the two exhibitions being
consolidated as an entirety, at once and
effectually places this organization, in point
of magnitude and attraction, head and
shoulders above all compeers, and enables
the joint management to offer the best hip
podromatic, equestrian, gymnic and zoolog-
Ical exhibition in America. This exhibi-
tion is advertised to be here Thursday, June

"This was sometime a paradox" as
Hamlet says. Tinee, however, the people
America and other lands have been enabled
to pit Hostetter's Stomach Btters against
that unseen foe, malaria, it is no longer
paradox, but an easy possibility. Where
ever malaria evolves its misty venom to
poison the air, and decaYing unwholesome
vegetation impregnates the water, there,
in the very sionghold of miasma, is the
auxiliary potent to disarm the foe
and assure efficient protection. Fever
and ague, bilious remitlent, dumb ague
and ague cake, no matter how tenaciously
they have fastened their clutch on the sys-
tenn. are first forced TO relax their grasp
and eventually to abandon it altogether.
But it is its preventive force that should
chiefly reccomend the Bitters to persons
dwelling in malaria localities, for il
is a certain buckler OF defence against
which the enemy Is powerless. Cures, like
wise, dyspepsia, rheumatism, kidney and
bilious ailments.

Enameled iewelry still has its admirers.
Porcelain riding whip handles are a re-

Bangle bracelets possess features that
make of them a permanency.
Enameled violets with diamond centers
are as popular as ever as scarf pins.
Circles of pearls with turquois centers
are extensively utilized as earscrews.
A sunburst in filigree gold, with pearl
joints, is brooch claiming attention.
On duh silver tobacco box of recent
make is delicately etched aflight of swal-
lows.
The renaissance style appears to be the
prevailing ornamentation for silver hand
mirrors.
Green gold laurel leaves, sparkling with
rose diamonds, topsome exquisite mother
of pearl combs.
Stained ivory and silver, in futed pat
terms, make some very choice handles
for corkscrews.
A brooch design that meets with ap-
proval is crest and crescent studded
with diamonds.
For household decoration Mexican onyx
tables with oxidized silver mountings are
a fad at present.
Two racquet bats in silver, hinged to.
gether by wire spring, constitute a
unique paper clip.
Quite unique is silver brush handle,
heavily embossed with nymph rising
from tubulent sea.
Tasty brooches indeed are those in fill

BITS OF SCIENCE.

Belgium is said to be particularly rich
in zinc bearing veins, carrying calamine
and blende mixed with sulphides of iron
and lead.
The application of volatile hydro-car-
bons, in lieu of water, for producing
power is just now attracting considera-
BILE attention.
1t has recently been proved conclu-
sively that there exists a relation between
phenomena of a volcanic nature and
telluric and atmospheric electricity.
That free swimming crustaceans are
attracted to a stationary net by the cleo
trio light may now be considered estab-
lished beyond doubt, and that the illu-
minated tow net can be used in thirty
fathoms of water to great advantage to
the fishermen has lately been success
fully proved by the Liverpool marine
biology committee in a recent dredging
cruise.

IDEAS FoR DRESS.


Braid or embroidery or both trims
most fashionable gowns.
Both wide and narrow braids are used
in trimming dresses, wraps and bonnets.
The stylish mode Of making a silk
gown is to have it Of two shades Of tie
same color.
The long pelisse, the Connemara cloak
and the bonne femme mantle are thc
leading long wraps.
The barred and plaided mohairs in
light and bright colors are in high favor
for little girls frocks.
The latest fancy in neck lingerie is the
deep falling plisse apd the narrow up
right ruche of sulphur yellow gauze.
The new mohairs come in all shades
of color in ''shot'' effects and in bars,
plaids and checks of great beauty and
effectiveness.
Jackets are never out of fashion. This
season they have deep revers and sleeves
full above the elbow, but they are not
worn with dressy toilets.
Pretty spencers, blouses and Garibaldis
in surah silk, yelling, China silk and
taffeta are sold in all the shops, to be
worn with any kind of skirt.
The long, straight scarf mantle, worn
around the shoulders and falling TO the
hem of the dress in front. is revived
among other wraps in London.
The cheapest pretty and durable silk
gowns are made of American woven
foulards, which come in plain self colors,
in printed figures and in bars and plaids
The variety in braids is seemingly end
less There are wide Moorish braids,
from four to eight inches wide, Floren-
tine braids, initiating rolling ribbon in
its designs, and Constable embroidered
braid cut out in points like lace.
Among soft artistic corsage draperies
sent home by fashionable dressmak-
ers with gowns that are made with un-
trimmed bodices are the Marie Antoinette
flchu, the Sir Joshua Reynolds and Mar
tina Washington kerch.efs, and the Queen
Mary berthas.
In honor of the centennial year the
Martha Washington kerchief folded light
ly and crossed over the chest is worn
with afternoon toilets. These kerchiefs
are made of deep squares of white, cream
and tinted silk null richly bordered with
Puritan frills of silk lace.
White skirts are undraped. Fashion
able dressmakers manage to make them
elaborate and decorative by alternate ar.
rangements of plaits and gathers, shir.
rings and smockings, from the waist line
and panels and slashes, with revers and
borders, complete the elaboration.
Women who are sure that their. uhroat'
and necks are pretty and white, full and
well rounded, wear the wide, falling col
lar, like the Little Lord Fauntleroys, now
so popular with girls as well as with boys
or the deep falling plisse of null or main
sock or lace net, white cream or tinted
blue, yellow or pink.
Short sleeved, very short cape like
mantels, with long lapels in front, tn,
sleeves sometimes entirely of lace ant
bead fringes, are shown in a variety o.
forms and made of velvet gauzes, cash
mere, bengaline, brocaded silks, and fin
ished with tassels and flots of ribbon, pas
sementeries, motifs, laces and raise firing
