QUEEN ANNE ADDITION.
A Choice Tract in the City Limits
Placed on the Market.

A few days since Mr.. Isaac Van
duyn, formerly Of Independence, and
Mr.. j. B. Stump of this city, bought
of Hon. Ed. Hirsch, a tract lying
in the city limits, on the north side
of State street, containing thirteen
acres, and they are now having the
same plated into blocks and lots
under the style of "Queen Anne
addition to the city of Salem. "
The tract after opening the streets
and alley-ways, will make about
forty-fve lots, which will be sold
at prices ranging from $175 per lot,
upward.
This tract is all high and level,
and is we'll drained. The Court
street sewer passes through the
property on this line of that beauti-
full avenue and the Us are already
laid ready for connections. The
property is near the state house and
other public buildings, is from four
to six blocks from the public schools,
is of easy access from the depot, is
only four blocks from the street
railway NOW, and this will soon
pass in front of the property.
The blocks are divided into good
sized lots, 55, 54, and SO feet frontages
and are generally 165 feet deep.
They are all choice, but as they are
not all corners, those wanting good
building corners should get in early.
Moores & Manning, the live real
estate agents, at 307 Commercial
street, have been appointed sole
agents for the sale of these lots, and
will take pleasure in showing them
to parties seeking for good, gilt edged
investments, or for an excellent
building spot. Remember that
these lots are offered lower now
than they will be next month, and
let every person "call early" These
are the only choice building lots
offered in Salem, and will sell

A connd,nre Man And Forger.

Mr.. Ryan the North Salem grocer
is trying to find Il smo 9TH confidence
man and forger who defrauded him
out of $40 in good hard coin. One
afternoon few days ago a stranger,
and a man who hal the appearance
of being n laborer, came to his estab-
lishment and purchased II few dol
lars worth of groceries, which he or-
dered sent to n certain house in
northeast Salem. In payment he
offered II check for S42.75 on the
Capital National bank, asking Mr..
Ryan If he could not give him the
the balance or part of it, in money
Mr.. Ryan took the paper and gave
the man what spare change he
had in the drawer amounting
to $50, and sent the order of grocer
les as directed. Nothing was known
of such an order having been given
by those who resided i'm the house.
This aroused the fears of the grocer
that all was not well. Consequent
~ he came to the bank and present
ed the check for payment At the
bank the forgery was at once de
tected, as the signature of r. 5. Wal
lace was a clear counterfeit. The
scheme had worked and Mr.
Ryan is stillloOking for the stranger.
The signature Of Wallace was a
forgery.

THE FARMERS INSTITUTE.
A Large Attendance and Good Meet
ing-Lively Discussions.

/
of the capitol last evening. This in.
stitute is conducted under the
auspicies of the State Agricultural
college and, being of the regular
series inaugurated by the faculty, is
entertaining as well as instructive
The program last night consisted
of a welcome address by Mayor
Murphy and its response by Presi'
dent Arnold of the Agricultural col
lege. Several topics Of paramount
importance were warmly discussed.
The paper of Wallis Nash, secre-
tary of the board of regents of the
Agricultural college, was read. 1t
dealt with the farmer and contained
many good points.
Rev. o. Dickinson, in a short
speech, thought the matter of this
meeting had not been thoroughly
advertised. He said these were
meetings for the farmer and the
presence of such men was earnestly
desired.
Mr.. Mimic, in few well chosen
words, expressed the hope that eX-
periments might be made and dis
cussions entered into as regards the
difference in cline of Eastern and
Southern Oregon. What might do
we'll here in this valley would utterly
fail elsewhere.
The Institute was called to order
this morning with a largely in
creased attendance. President j..
II. Apperson of Clackamas county
in the chair and Secretary r. A.
Miller of Jackson county at the
desk.
O. Dickinson read an intensely
interesting paper on "Grasses and
Meadows" which was enthusiastic
ally discussed until 11:3O, when, re-
turning to the order of business, w.
w. Baker editor of the Pacific
Farmer, read his paper on Dairy
Cows and Butter Making" This
was also warmly discussed.
Dairy.-Mr. Bakers paper upon
this subject, like Mr.. Dickenson's
upon grasses, was most interesting.
He said progress in this business is
equal to that of the railroad. The
creamery is as far ahead of the
churn as the self-binder is of the
hand rake. The dairy cow is a
manufactured article, made on the
plan that like begets like. The COW
must have pure air and food so as to
have pure blood and give pure milk,
hence she must not stand face to
face with other cows or in a bad
stable, nor must the milk be exposed
to foul air lest it be filled with Bac-
terra, which will rot the butter. To
kill these microbes, wash the
butter in gallon of water contain
ing two grains Of alum, then put it
into strong brine for an hour, Ihen
pack. Brewers waste is not fit for
food or milk. Use cloth stralner,
keep unslacked lime and coal in milk
house. Oxygen, not friction, brings
the butter, which should be granu-
lar, not oily.
So far as interest goes, the ag-
ricultural teachers are to be
congratulated, and are entitled to
your subscribers thanks.

taken to > p. M. when the program

XIII, who had managed to shut the
shutters behind him, was playing very
contentedly, kissing his little hands to
his much-amused subjects below.
Then His Majesty's nurse, a dark,
handsome, stout woman, in the cos
tune of the peasants of the S%antander
Mountains, appeared behind the king
and tried to coax him away
from the balcony. But he sturdily
clasped his little hands to
the ratings and Justify cried:-
mo quieroi No quieroln q won't, |
WON'T. But soon the nurse was REIN
forced by the Sonora de Tacon, who
acts as superintendent of the little
Sovereign's household, and held the
same post when his father, Alphonso
XII, was still a child. At last the nurse
lifted His Majesty up and bore him off
inside, despite his repeated and loud
protests. As | had just come from the
Casa del Labrador, where we had seen
many portraits of the Bourbons, l
could not help being much struck

looks in fair health, though not stout
or strongly built in body or limbs.

rraumatio Death.

E.L
Prompted by the recent discussion
of the subject of traumatic and cellu-
lar death, a Gettysburg Pa.) CORE
s~pondent of the Baltimore american
tells of a case that occurred at West
minister, Md, in 1879, and names sew
eral citizens of standing o living
who witnessed the case in point. A
young South American, then resi-
dent there, had been ON a ~protracted
spree, and took an overdose of NOR
phia. He was found by a servant on
his bed unconscious. DR.. w. K. Erin
ger was called in, and summoned the
correspondent, saying-"I have never
believed that death takes place when
the heart stops beating and the respi-
ratory organs cea to act. j would
like to put my theory to the test; will
you help mel"
The writer then proceeds:-''Your
correspondent cheerfully assented,
and the seemingly lifeless body was
taken from the bed, stripped to the.
waist and seated ON a chair. The
doctor seized one arm and your CORE
spondent the other, and with their
knees pressing the arms of the young
man, with as much force as possible,
against his ribs, and alternately rails
ing them high above his head, thus
brought about artificial respiration.
In the meantime others had been
summoned to assist in the work, and
as soon as the doctor and your cor
respondent became wearied, other
willing hands continued the effort at
resuscitation. The experiment, which
was commenced about half-past seven
in the morning, was kept up without
intermission until three o'clock in the
afternoon, and during all this time
there was no sign of natural respira-
ton, nor the faintest pulsation, if the
pumping process were discontinued
for an instant. At noon a number of
spectators were present, and many
expressed horror at what they called
the 'sacrilege' of thus manipulating a
dead body. At two o'clock DIR. Will
lam H. Rippard injected ammonia
into his veins, and at three o'clock the
truth of'Dr. Fringer's theory was
demonstrated, a faint fluttering of the
pulse was felt, the young man
breathed, and in a few moments
opened his eyes. He recovered, re-
turned to his home in Chill, and was
living when last heard of. Let
physicians and scientists give the ex-
plantations; these are the facts"

THE MILL CREEK NUISANCE.

An Attempt Will Be Made to Abate 1T
at the Health Board Meeting.
So much has been said about Mill
Creek and the horrible stencil that arises
from it that the County Board of Health
will probably at the next meeting take
some definite action to do away with the
nuisance.
Mill Greek is a crooked stream that
winds through the Meadows and empties
into the New York Bay. 1t is at high tide
about twenty yards wide, but when the
tide is low the width is not that
number of feet. AS the tide
Gibbs, all the filth that had
been gathered by the creek floats slowly
through the old Sixth ward and the tene
ment house beneath the Hill. There,
where sanitary precautions are so sadly
needed they are most woefully neglected.
Many houses are built on the meadows
and surrounded by water. Some are
undated at times of freshets. Gil are
mouldy and mildewed, u%nhealthful and
malarial.
The sewerage from this district gradu-
ally finds its way to the creek, and in the
course of time reaches the Ocean. But it
takes a long time.
When it gets there the vegetable and
tt1lllAlcll lAtuOSC ID OhtAACAJ ~ WI IN ullC
nauseous and sickening smell that arises
is breathed daily by the hundreds of peo-
Pile compelled to live near by.
This stencil is particularly bad at low
tide, for the dead dogs and cats and the
decayed vegetable matters lie on the mud
and receive the heat of the SUMS rays.
Besides this, a number of factories and
slaughter houses use the canal for sew
erage purposes.
AT Grand street several slaughter
houses use the stream to get rid of the
refuse. This is necessary, for there is no
sewer and the creek must be used or
people must go away.
An open sewer nearly forty feet wide is
certainly not q pleasant thing to think
about, but to thoroughly appreciate just
how filthy and i'll smelling it can be made
a personal inspection of Mill Creek is
necessary.
1t is believed that the County Board of
Health will devise some means at the
next meeting to partially abate the nui-
sance.

some change. 1t can not be done too
soon to please the thickly populated dis

The Awful Curl Paper.

time had stretched q circular canvas
over the saplings for their dwelling,
making it resemble a big behive.
Linseed oil was rubbed on h cloth TO
make 1t waterproof. Furniture was
constructed of the natural woods Win
their bark and MOSES. A garden was
planted and grain sowed.
Then Miss Hadley found a pocket in
the rocks a little higher up the can
yon, which pleased her, and she filed
a presumption claim to eighty acres.
A canvas dome also arose on her
clearing, which is now a marvel OF
productiveness. Miss Cook, another
vegetarian, came out from Missouri TO
assist her. These industrious young
women now have one and a half acres
in grain, with not a weed on the en-
tire place. They make their W
flour.
They have sweet peas, onions, let
tuce, celery, ETC., with blackberry
bushes and various other small fruits.
They chiselled ten steps in the granite
rocks leading down to a spring which
breaks through q flssure in the rocks.
A cellar built in the bank contains
some two hundred bottles of a pecu-
liar grape cordial, which is their only
drink. 1t is boiled down without
being sweetened, and is considered a
sort of grape cure.
These resourceful people manu-
facture all their own garments, in
Guiding shoes. lie Beuf's garments
are somewhat like a bathing suit.
Several weeks ago a ma named
Weidenmiller, also a vegetarian, APP
peared in the canyon, and week before
last he brought Miss Hadley down to
San Diego in the stage, and here they
were married. Miss Cook continues
to reside with them. The two men
work on the ranches thereabouts as
opportunity offers, while the women
devote their leisure to books and the
cultivation of the gardens. -San Diego
