Why the Parson Left.

Twas only little hen, with a Topped
comb and flushed face, that broke up
the pastorate Of an able Maine parson.
She used to sneak under the fence, you
know, just the way hens do always,
tiptoe across the grass border with the
minuet step, and then the elders gar
den had to take it. OF course 1t was
aggravating Did you ever watch a
hen at this jobl She trips carelessly
into the middle of the garden bed she
cocks her head; a careless look comes
into her eye; she balances partners
with flip and a scrape to the right, a
firt and a kick TO the left, double
shuttle and grand skirt dance flourish.
Then she looks for grub.
Well, that parson saw the whole thing

AN AcRosATlc FAILURE.

He Dived Backward to Show or Before
His Fellows. but Does So No More.
One afternoon Lou Preston was in
the middle of story when we reached
the swimming hole. He was always
telling stories in the slow, drawing tone
natural to him, and as the boys listened
eagerly you may be sure they were in
terested. Boys are no flatterers in word
or deed, and if they pay attention it is
certain that your story is liked.
What he was telling that day was
little above me, as we say, and while
the older boys delayed to hear the last
Of it got ready, wet my head first Ito

tradition, and then jumped in.
AS was unnoticed took the chance
to learn to dive backward. This did
successfully several times, and when
Louis story was finished | had q new
feat to execute for my own glory and
the delectation of my friends.
Look here, boys" l cried. Look
here Charliel look herel Awl wait a
minute and watch me-" got their at
tention at last and braced myself for
a triumphant exhibition of my great
act.
have described the swimming hole
as place at one side of the stream,
worn deep by the current. Above and
below and at the further side the wa
ter was shallow. The near side of this
hole was perpendicular, and the hole
was said to be twenty feet Deep This
was just the place to dive.
That day, as the stream was high. its
ripping surface overflowed the bank,
the top of which formed ledge sew
eral inches wide under water before the
true rim of the hole was reached.
In my successful attempts to dive
backward had stood on this ledge,
with my feet under water and my heels
at the rim of the hole, and turned a
back somersault. But now, having
drawn all eyes to me, in my haste to
act before their notice was distracted
and in the furry of a public perform
ance, set my heels at the margin of
the overfowing water, my feet be-
ing on dry land, and forget the ledge
hidden by the water between me and
the rim of the hole.
Over / went and down / came head
first on the ledge. l heard my neck
bones crunch under the weight of my
body, and ! Topped over sidewise, limp
and for a moment helpless, into the
stream.
AS rose and the water gushed out
Of my ears, heard from the bank a
shout of wild laughter from the specta-
tors of my great diving feat. The boys
said afterward that had they known
my neck was broken they could not
have helped laughing. AS they did not
know it was not broken and had every
'eason to think it was, believed their
had enough sense left to strike out
'eebly for the next shore. My neck
vas bent over to one side and l could
lot straighted 1t. swan till my hands
ouched the gravel bottom, and drag
'ing myself into three inches of water
ay like a piece of driftwood on the
)each.
My strength began to return after q
title, and as the other boys kept up
heir laughter my recovery was has
ened by indignation.
After that, when l dived, it was in
ne good, old fashioned way, face fore
lost.-St. Nicholas.

REsURRECr THE BOARD
What Business Men Declare Should
Be Dene to PrOtect Salem.

Real estate men naturally take
the greatest interest IN a board of
trade. They have the greatest di-
rect interest in It's work of bringing
families and investors to Salem. A
leading real estate man says: "The
criticism has been made that real
estate dealers ran the last board.
This is not true as a number of lead
ing ones pulled out first, and nearly
every real estate man in town is do
ing just as much work at advertis-
ing our city and showing attention
to strangers as the board ever did.
The Oregon Land Co. is doing more
to advertise Oregon today than any
board of trade ever did, and is
spending hundreds of dollars getting
up an exhibit of grains and grasses
for the worlds fair when all the rest
of the state is not doing anything.
Such companies do not need board
of trade half so much as the city
needs their cooperation. The real
estate men object to the board of
trade being converted into private
real estate business. Salem has inn
mense interests to protect which
can only be protected through a
properly organized and representa-
tive board of trade"
Says an eastern man who has
moved his family here, put up a
business house, and intends to stay:
Ever since / have been in Salem /
have been waiting to attend board
of trade meeting. Call after call 1
have answered only to find not II
soul there but the president and
secretary. They finally thought L
had some scheme to work and 1
stayed away. Your present organi-
zatlon does not impress ME as of any
practical value.
G. p. Bishop: 1 am in favor of
keeping before the people of Amer
lea the fact that there is such town
as Salem in Oregon, and that it is
backed by the best country in the
Willamette valley, If board of
trade is the best plan to accomplish
it, that is what we want. What
ever is best for our town should be
pushed by lis business men. We
need manufactures, and it requires
cooperation to secure them,
II. H. Barnes: This board of trade
should be composed of business men
who have the true interests of our
city at heart, and not be controlled
by real estate men. A membership
fee of $25 with a monthly fee of 81
should be established, and fund
raised in advance to work with.
There is opportunity for valuable
work, and it behooyes every citizen
to get in and push.
Postmaster Gilbert: No mail
comes to the board of trade at pres
ent, nor to any amount since eastern
advertising dropped off. get in-
quiries addressed to the Office per-
sonally about Salem, but none for
the B. of It.
Sec. J. l.. Mitchell: Our firm will
heartily support board Of trade,
while I am personally more than
anxious TO get out of the secretary
ship. a meeting cannot be held
until the first Tuesday in September.

FIRST WHEAT.-The first wheat
of the crop of 1891 was received and
regularly taken in this morning at
the Salem Flouring Mills. 1t was
of the regulation Oregon grade,
large white berry, and brought 763c,
a bushel. The farmer who brought
it was John Estes. The water is
now coming in full head from the
Santiam, and the milling interest in
this city is now in fiourishing con-
dition. Owing to larger berry and
yield, wheat at 764c. is a better crop
in Oregon than at S1.O0 bushel in
the East.
