THE JOURNAL still believes It
would be money in the pockets Of
Mario4 and Polk counties to build
a bridge over the Willamette at Sa-
lem that will be "a credit and q source
of pride to the people of both coun-
ties. No cheap bridge, or even
rebuilding of the old bridge will be
satisfactory in the long run. A
500, 900 bridge, il good enough. and
strong enough to lie utilized finally
as a railroad bridge, is what the
people want, and the counties are
able to build it and will make money
by it.
A gentleman on the street car to-
day began to talk to another in Ger
man. He ran on a few minutes
when the other broke in with,
"what you say may be deuced inter
esting, but 1 don't understand a
deuced word you are talking about p"
"Den, Wy tiden't you gay zo!' said
the German.
Fred Werner and one Granville
attempted to rob J. Weston at Salt
Lake City Monday. In fight
that followed Werner was shot
through the neck and probably
fatally hurt, Granville instantly
killed and Weston only slightly
wounded.
THE JOURNAL. does not believe il
is right, when man is discharged
from prison, to publish the record of
his convictions, where from and
what he was sentenced for, and ali
the details of the crime for which
he has done time. He goes out as u
free man and should not be branded
anew with the stain of his past life.
Such men have a hard enough lot
and are often precipitated deeper
into new crimes by such influences.

a DISASTROUS chEsTNUT.
How . Milwaukee Dude Got Drink ans
Lost n Bride.


How q Milwaukee Dude Got q Drink and
Lost n Bride.
A very amusing incident, says Peck's
Sun, happened a few evenings since over
at tho Bijou Opers-house, and one young
man, at least, received a lesson which he
will not forget in hurry. Mckee Rankin
was entertaining d large audience with his
new play, 1.-The Runaway Wife" and had
become blind, as is his habit at each per-
formance, when the curtain went down on
the second act. Several men Immediately
arose and crowded their way out, the eager
expression upon their faces telling plainly
that they were after q drink. Finally, a
nice young fellow, with a beautiful bang, a
low-cut vest and a general society air about
him, began to get uneasy, and after looking
anxiously at each man who arose to go, at
last, in desperation, turned to the fair
dream Of lovellness at his side and said:
"Mary, If you will kindly excuse me for a
few moments, should like to go into the
lobby, as there is a gentleman out there
whom desire to speak with"
Mary did not answer, but bowed her con-
sent, and the poor young man crowded his
way out, much TO the discomfort of several
ladies in his immediate row. Hardly had he
disappeared through the door when the
young lady, too, arose and followed him.
Alas il he had but told the truth and said
that he wanted drink all might have been
well, but that old chustnut about wanting
to see man was too suspicious for even a
young thing like her to swallow, and so she
followed him. She was not mistaken, for
going out the front door, she hurredlJ
glanced into the bar-room at the right ant
there beheld her escort peering into the in.
verted bottom of a glass.
With cold glitter in her eagle optics that
would have queered a book agent, she
headed north and boarded a Grand avenue
car, leaving the young man to guess at her
whereabouts. Five minutes later he entered
the theater. and being a trife near-sighted,
marched down the aisle, and even crowded
his way to his seat before discovering her
absence. Then the blank look that came
across his features was laughable to behold.
First he looked Mt the vacant seat and sur
veyed the audience, but all to no purpose,
for she was nowhere TO be seen.
Finally a gallery god mildly hinted that
''De girl has gone home to her maw," and
then, amid much laughter, the discounted
young man left the house. To make it
worse, the young couple were to have been
married soon, but now the wedding has
been indefinitely postponed.

THE CONDUCTORS CHECK.
One Thing That II woman Can Not Pos.

One Thing That IA woman Can Not Pos
sIbly Understand.
If there Is any one thing that a woman
can not possibly understand, it /, the agile
conductors check. She can bear to man.
age her ticket that she buys very we'll. but
when it comes to subduing the fiery, un-
tanned conductors check, she is at a loss,
and all powers OF perception avail her
naught.
AS soon as it is given her in exchange for
the ticket, says Railway Topics, she puts it
in her pocket book 80 that she may not for
get where it Is, but when the conductor
comes round again and wants to gaze on it
just for old acquaintance sGKe, she can not
remember for the life of her where it
has gone, and she looks through all her
pockets, then on the floor, but it does not
appear. Next she gets up, moves out into
the aisle, examines the seat, and shakes
her skirts; but tits only after the conductor
has passed on, telling her that he will stop
on his way back, that she remembers put
ting it In her pocket book.
After TINS, she holds it heroically in her
hand until the conductor returns and sees
it. When he has vanished she leans back
with sigh of satisfaction, and begins
novel that she has purchased from the train
boy. Something, however, attracts her at
tention, or she does not find the story utter
esting, so she closes the book, putting the
check in to mark the place.
This time the check is gone. The con-
ductor may fret and fume, but he will never
see that check again. She assures him
that he took it up at the last station,
and when he tells her that he never did 80,
she becomes angry, and if he persists, she
declares that she will report him, and fully
makes up her mind before she leaves the
train that she will have him dismissed as
soon as she can write to the superintendent
BY and by she opens the novel that she
bought on the train and finds the missing
check But she can never understand how
| 1t happened TO get in between the leaves,
she certainly never put it there, she can
not account for it, and she never will. II is
an unfathomable mystery.

FINALLY RECOGNIZED.

How q Missouri Senator Succeeded ia
Catching tho Speakers Eye.
This bit of Missouri history is taken from
Henry Georges Standard. The writer
doesn't sign his name:
Stllson Hutchins is a well-k known news
paper man of Washington He used TO live
in Missouri, and at one time represented his
district in the Legislature, of which body he
was elected the Speaker. There was in the
same Legislature member from another
district-a man whom Hutchins had con-
ceived prejudice against This man want
ed TO bring up a bill in the interest OF his
constituency, but he never seemed TO be
able to catch the Speakers eye. Day after
day he would wait until routine matters
had been cleared away, when he would rise
in his pace, and, in the pecc.iar Missouri
high treule, address the presiding officer,
hut without receiving that recognition
without which no member of parliament
ary body can proceed. The memoer finally
became tired of such treatment, and one
morning after the House had been called
70 order he marched In with rifle ON his
shoulder, which, when he reached his seat,
he leaned up against his desk. He sat there
quietly until he thought the routine busi-
ness was about all disposed of, when he
slowly picked up his rife aud cooked IT,
When the last motion had been put and dis
posed OF our friend arose, placed his rife
against his shoulder, drew bead on
Speaker Hutchins and drawled out: 'Mr
Speaker" There was silence as OF death
IN the Assembly chamber for a few mo-
ments, which was finally broken by the
Speaker himself, who slowly and distinctly
SAID: The gentleman from - has the
floor" The memoer lowered his rifle, an
cooked Il, and then, as IL nothing had hap
pened, proceeded 10 lay his bill before the
legislators.

AN ONO EXPERIMENT

There's good deal of politics out in
Ohio at present The Legislature is
Democratic and has recently passed a
bill, which became law, correcting"
the Congressional districting of the
State by the Republicans.
The city of Dayton, which is usually
Democratic in spite of Major Bill Bick-
ham and his JourHaI, elected a Repub-
lican council. Taking a hint from the
Democratic Legislature, the Dayton
Republican Council proposed to "cor-
rect" the ward districting of the city
as done by the Democrats. Thereupon
the Democratic Legislature took hint
from Mr.. McComas, and promptly
passed bill preventing the councils of
cities of the first class, of which Dayton
is one, from redividing the city into
wards between censuses.
The Dayton Republicans are discon-
solate and cry out against Democratic
"trickery."

A FOOLISH SPITE.

When Stanley volunteered to go to the
rescue of Enin Pasha, beleaguered by
the forces of the Mahdi in the southern
SOudap, the whole civilized world had
nothing but words of praise for his
courageous enterprise. When he dis
appeared from view In the savage and
unexplored forests which lie between
the Aruwhimi and the Albert Nyanza
the world waited patiently for months,
which grew into years, for tidings from
the daring explorer.
Finally the idea that there was an
opportunity 10 advertise itself was sug-
gested to the New York World. But it
was acted upon in way that brought
ridicule rather than reputation. The
task Of finding Stanley was entrusted to
a person who had gained some notoriety
by riding bicycle into certain remote
parts of the earth where the wheel was
unknown.
Unfortunately for the World. tidings
were had from Stanley before its anna
teur explorer was well under way on
bis useless mission
Instead of rejoicing at the good news,
