AN OBJECT LESSON.

When men like E. M. WILSON and S.
j. RANDALL drop out'Of time, if there
are any familiar with their lives who do
not feel that communities and the nation
have sustained serious loss, they argue
themselves insenSate OF depraved. But
a man died in Louisiana the other day
who, in critical juncture, controlled
the administration of the country for
four years; at least he,by sinister meth
DDS, wrested his state from the control
of the ballot boxes and made it the fac
tor in the decisive event. Gen. ANDER-
SON was an active spirit in the return
ing board of 1876. Evil fortune and in
gratitude bounded him all along his
friendless way to the grave. He was
once high in favor with fortune, but be-
came beggar at the hands of the party
he had served. AS secretary of the
treasury, SHERMAN gave him small
bone in the custom house, but HARRI-
SON turned his back on him, and all he
could do was to die and get out of the
way. His fate is an object lesson to
politicians who would sacrifice honor
and honesty for party.

UNDER this administration the op-
portunities TO help out family and
friends by officials are not often wasted.
The president has set a large example.
There has been of late good deal of
boasting that Gen. RAUM is beating
TANNERS record in turning out
pensions. He has several sons about
the vicinity who should share the credit.
One Of them is assistant chief clerk of
the bureau. and another operates a

TANNER, DUDLEY and that crowd in
building up business. The pension deal
helps out good many people besides
the pensioners.

THE LAKE OF DEATH,
A Mysterious Sheet of Water Which No
Living Thing Can Survive.

A Mysterious Sheet of Water Which No
Living Thing Can Survive.
DEVILS Lake." in Calhoun County,
Ala, seventy miles east of Birmingham,
ls one of the most remarkable natural
curloslties to be found in America.
The lake is oval in shape and covers
about four acres of ground. No vege-
tatlon of any kind grows en- its banks
and nothing lives in it's waters. Even
snakes and terrapins shun the waters of
Devils Lake, and fish placed in it die
in few hours. The water is clear lime
stone, with a peculiar taste, which
makes it unpaiatable to man or beast.
Horses and cows will not drink it, no
matter how thirsty they may be.
Deep down below the surface of the
lake may be seen what appears to be the
charred and blackened trunks of large
trees. They stand upright in the water,
but have neither root nor branch and
never rise to tho surface nor sink to tho
bottom. The lake has no outlet and
tho volume of water in it is the same
all the time.
strange fatality attaches to this
lake. Once it was the favorite resort of
the boys of the neigh borhood for bath
ing and swimming, but now they never
go near it. Fifteen boys have been
drowned in its waters in twice as many
years. few of the bodies were recov-
cred, but those who were drowned any
distance, from the banks sunk to the
bottom and were never brought to the
surface.
The depth Of the lake has never heen
ascertained. Soundings to q depth Of
seven hundred feet found no bottom,
and the people in the vicinity say tho
lake has none. The Indian legend of
the origin of the lake is that before the
white man came to this country two
tribes became involved in a war, and
after number of bloody battles tho
smaller tribe was almost extcrminatCd.
Then the old men and chiefs of the
weak tribe sued for peace and arranged
for council. While the pipe was being
passed around signal was given and
the chiefs of the strong tribe suddenly
sprang up with drawn tomahawks and
murdered overy one of tho chiefs of the
smaller tribe.
Then tho war was renewed and car
ricd on until the weak tribe was extcr-
minated. A few moons after the mas
sacre of the chiefs fire broke out in
tho pine forest where tho massacre &C.
CURED. The fire burned in this spot for
eighT moons and the ground sunk down
out of sight; the fire disappeared, and in
its stead appeared lake. Tho Indians
gave the lake a name which means lake
of death."

FAULTY BRIDGE.-Comes now
the Albany Democrat and makes
this serious charge against the jeff
erson bridge, built across the San
tam by the counties Of Marion and
Linn. Economy which aims at
low priced work is oflentimes q
costly experiment and lie always OF
doubtful wisdom. One or two thou
sand dollars apparently saved in the
cost Of structure may prove the
loss Of the entire appropriation.
Bridge plans are too hastily consid
cred and the work Of building
them is too cheaply superintended.
But here is what the Democrat says
end very likely there 10 ground for
IL: 1.-THE commissioners from the
two counties who have examined
the Jefferson bridge, the Democrat
il informed, have agreed to accept it.
Some who have seen it, though, say
it never should have been received.
rs, it is claimed, that it is not fl
ished as 1t should be, and that the
approach to this eide, particularly,
will not stand the face Of even me-
dunn high water. 1t is feared that
several bridges through the valley,
secured by low bids, have been
slighted."

HOG CHOLERA.
Has This Fatal Disease Made its Ar-
Pearauce Among the Oregon
Pprkerss

A correspondent informs the
JOURNAL that it Is thought b. peg
sons who claim to know that the hog
cholera prevails toa considerable rx-
tent on Howell prairie, ard tina,
what ever the disease Is, it is fatal
TO all the hogs that take il. \. G..
Jeruan, John Hanlin and Nj Eek.
ernsn have lost all their hog. with
in the last two months, and are
very anxious 10 find remedy for
the dreaded and dreadful tise sc
In the Middle an Eastern states,
where 1t has prevailed in is worst
form, il is not believed that there Is
a remedy for the cholera after il has
once taken possession of a drove nf
hogs. However, there ere believed
to be certain methods of treatment
to prevent the disease. Among the
rest, plenty Of pure water is an essen
tial to good health in the hog as any
other animal, and where they are
heartily fed it is absolutely neces.
sary. 1t may be true that you can
fatten hog quicker without much
water or exercise, but the process is
sure to undermine his constitution.
The mixing of charcoal, ashes and
arsenic with the feed, are also con-
sidered good preveutives. Cleanli-
ness is also another essential, and
that especially when the animals
have little range.
1t is to be hoped the eases referred
t, may not prove to be cholera, but
ev n If that is Il e case, there is a
grain of consolation to be drawn
from the fact. Cholera only exists
among the better breeds of hogs.
1t is unknown to the "razor-back, !"
and the other breeds that can lift the
rider Off ten-rail fence. The pres
ence Of the dreaded disease Is evil
dence that Oregon is raising a better
class of hogs than of old, and the
writer ventures to suggest that the
hogs in question We're blooded stock.
1t is to be hoped the question will
be thoroughly investigated, and that
our farmers will take pains to post
themselves on this dreaded plague
among what ought to be one of their
most profitable products. The Jour
NAL invites any suggestions on the
subject that may be of value or in.
terest to hog breeders, for the dis
ease has cost the farmers of the
East millions of dollars, and we
should profit by their experience.

BISHOP Du BIS AT SALEM.
What the Deposei Leader of the Ey4n-
gelieal Association Had to SAY.

Monday night Bishop Dubbs, OF
Cleveland, Ohio, spoke at the Evan
gelical church. His admirer and
sustainer Rev. BolIinger, also among
the deposed, was feeling pretty good,
and great many more in the con-
gregation seemed to be in the same
frame Of mind. The bishop was the
guest Of p. Z. Bowersox. The choir
sang "Oh that men would praise the
Lord" with splendid force and
rythmic effect. the Value of q
sanctified personality" was the
topic OF Bishop Dubb's address. The
speaker is a native of Germany and
employs rich teutonic accent.
A personality filled with spiritual
power work wonders of influence
upon others. Such man was a de-
pository Of heavenly forces. What
is personality The agnostic says
1t consists Of what we have inherit
ed, secondly, what we take in from
environment. This is true as far as il
goes. Philosophically and materi-
ally this is correct. But this is not
all. There is an element of origin
ality in each OF human kind. No
two persons were ever created alike
While We have great deal common
there is something unique and spec
ial in every man or woman. We do
not know another unless his uerson-
aiity IL the counterpart of ours. We
know none such. Where similarity
ends mystery begins. Man il mys.
terry to himself. Husbands and
wives niisjudge and misapprehend
each other, because there is absence
OF proper degree Of receptiviiy.
The higher the development in any
form ths less Understood it is.
Christ Was the most elevated and
highly developed personality, and,
therefore his life and words least
understood. The personality Is the
main thing. The truth becomes a
living factor of power in the hands
OF a strong personality. Thought
in books did not move the world, 10
much as meu full OF zeal and holy
inspiration. A thoroughly cohse-
Grated man the world has not seen |
since Christ.
The bishop is all interesting talker.
His ready wit, his great powers OF
argument and aEaly sis, his literary
Attainments are all of Il high order.
The bishop has made nine trips to
the coast.

An APPALLING MYSTERY.
The Fate Of a Former Salem
Boy in the Balance.
ANOTHER DIR. CRONlN CASE.
Or. Clinton Cooke, of Chicago, Miss
ing Since Last Thursday.

The following associated press dis
patch just received by the JOURNAL
will strike sadness to the hearts OF
many warm friends of the unfortu.
nate young man in Salem:
CHICAGO, H., oct. l4.-This city
has another Cronin mystery. DIR.
Clinton Cooke, resident at 1865 Mad
ison street, has been missing since
Thursday last, and all efforts OF the
police and his friends TO ascertain

Mr.. joseph Cooke, residing at SIS
Commercial street in this city, and II
brother of Prof. C'yde Cooke, of the
Willamette university. He was

graduated in his chosen profession
last March and has been practicins
since that time. His younger broth.
er Gaylord has been with him since
last spring. He had also recently
taken q former schoolnate in to
room with him.
What the cause Of this mysterious
disappearance is cannot be OWNED
by his people here, who had heard
nothing Of the matter until accosted
by q JOURNAL reporter this noon
for further Information. 1t is to be
hoped that all serious apprehensions
may be allayed hy early and posi-
tive information as TO his whert a.
bouts The Salem public will await
developement with anxious ears.
