The Joint Snake.

"a correspondent sends us an ac-
count of a Joint snake he with other
school children encountered about
twenty years ago, and he asks
whether the existence of such a
snake is denied. We reply:
The so-called joint snake, or "glass
SNAKE" is known to herpetolOgists
as the snake-liZard. It's tail is very
long and brittle, and slight blow
will sometimes cause it to break into
many pieces. When the tail has
been broken and lost, a new one inn
mediately begins to grow, and speci-
mems with little sprouting tails only
a few inches in length have frequent
ly been taken. These newly devel-
oped tails are lighter in color than
the other portions of the lizard, and
only assume the darker or normal
color with age. The self-mending
power is well known to be shall
low myth, yet Notwithstanding
there are some who pertinaciously
believe i'm it.

A Sad Meeting.

A few days ago there arrived in
Baker City, from Oregon, Missouri,
woman whose lonely trip across
the Rocky moutain- must have been
fraught with more of sorrow than
can ever be crowded into the mo
ments when she is called upon TO
journey through the valley of the
shadow of Death. She is the aged,
unfortunate mother of Clinton Pen
nington, sentenced to hang early in
August for the murder of G. Il. Bal
com. Almost Immediately upon
her arrival she sought the Jail and
was granted an interview with her
erring boy. Her story, it appears, Is
a sad one. Left widow while the
condemned youth was mere infant,
she labored often out in the fields at
home-all through the years it took
to provide for her family and rear
her boy to manhood so that he might
be comfort and help to her IN old
age. Whatever hopes she may have
entertained of her boy under SEN
tence of death, all are dashed to
earth, and in their place is left only
the deepest and darkest sorrow a
mothers heart can know.-Bakcr

Why il Was "Salted'

The reason why the cistern at
Rockford was ''salted' and II MN
ing excitement created, has at last
been ascertained. Some contractors
were grading First street and had
found that they would lose about
$500 on the job. Some brass filings
were placed in the cistern and in the
excitement that ensued of course all
work was stopped. 1t was fun
though while it lasted. Men who
had Eeen guiltless of physical labor
for years were rushing eXcitedly
about with II 4X4 scantling, hunting
for some INDICATED fraction. About
forty claims were located.

LINK nj Nnnr Clock

Not one person in a thousand is
aware of the fact that the Roman
characters on the face of their clocks
are not exactly like the first twelve
characters in arithmetic. You will
naturally expect " to stand for
four, but instead Of that you will
find four ones. 1t seems that it
originated this way: Hundreds of
years ago, a king had one of his sub
jects to make clock and submit it
to him for inspection. The maker
had put ~ for four, but the king
insisted that it should be otherwise,
and SO it has continued even unto
this day.

That Dallas Railroad.

Concerning the Salem and Dallas
railroad the Itemizer says: The af-
fair Is by no means in "A quiescent
state, but active steps are being taken
towards the contamination Of a
broadguage railway from Salem by
way of Dallas to the magnificent
body Of timber west of us. Parties
will very soo1 be in the field getting
right Of way, taking subscriptions.
and making preliminary surveys.
| Every farmer near whose property
il passes will be materially benefited
by it, and even those remote will
feel its beneficial effects. The towns
along the route will all feel an adj
dcd impulse to their business ener-
gy, and the county at large will
more rapidly become populous and
wealthy because of ITS existence.
Bnt wind work and good wishes
won't build railroad. It takes
money, muscle, faith and enterprise
in large doses. Let all the people
determine to take some stock in il.
| Those who are not able to contribute
money can work out their subscrip-
tion. This is an age of public enter
prise, and communities that sit still
are bound TO be out done and over
come by those having more push.

An Unfortunate Occurrence.

Last evening, soon after the fre

Capital engine was beng returned
to the engine house. there was an
unfortunate happening which might
have proven more serious. William
Nicen, n sixteen-year-old lad, who
has but recently come to Salem, and
who has been driving n truck for
George Anderson, was assisting the
bows in taking the tender To it,
quarters. A large number Of small
boys were pulling back on the ten

ward. This was irritating To young
Nicen and the boys knew 1t. Then
they held back the more, and when
he tried to get them to let 20 they
rave him IA shower of gravel and
sand. Finally he unthoughttdly
picked up rock and threw at them
after they had most all lodged.
Bert. Olinger, = boy of eight years,
did not get out of the way, and the
rock struck him just above the right
eye, Knocking him downand inllict-
ing n painful though not dangerous
wound. Nicen was arrested and
placed in the city Jail to await devcl-
opments, but was released on bail at
u late hour last night. The Olinger
boys wound was scwcd up and hG
was taken home, where he willnurse
a very sore head for some days.
Young Nicen sincerely regrets the
occurrence, ana closely questioned II
JOURNAL reporter, who visited him
in Jail last night, as to the condition
of the wounded boy.
LATEST.-Thc boys wound is not
serious and as his father, Mr.. Al.
Olinger, does not wish to prosecute
Nicen, that young man was released.
His punishment was complete and
he has perhaps learned "A valuable
lesson and one thnt will remain with
him during life.
