Always on Time.

Washington had many admirable
traits worthy of imitation, and one Of
them was rigid punctuality. This was
well illustrated by an incident during
his visit to Boston, Mass, one hundred
years ago. Having appointed eight o'clock
in the morning as the hour at which he
should set out for Salem, be mounted
his horse just as the Old South clock was
striking that hour. The company of
cavalry which was to escort him did not
arrive till after his departure, and did
not overtake him till he reached Charles
River Bridge.-New York Observer.

Free Academy as it was called, at which
tie youth of both sexes applied their
ruby lips to the Pierian Spring with edi-
fyiE z results. The school prospcred
with Il large and unctuous prosperity,
and the number OF its scholars increased
and multiplied until it became necessary
to engage an additional professor. He

was wei! nigh impossible to induce him
b communicates with anybpdy else; cs-
pecially If anything else had long hair
ald wore skirts. Professor Spunk had
no fear Of unmcnticnab!c chloride nor of
iudcscribabe oxides; but he was afraid
Of woman, lovely woman. She was not
afraid OF him, however; but, 80 far as
she was OF Gumblctown extraction, she
spent much of hcr time in endeavorinp
to get good look at the Professors
eyes, which were said to be very bcauti-
lu.
Bartholomew Spunk took up his abode
IN amoss- covered boanling house, where
the Irlcd steaks and the coffee grounds
sang together us morning stars, and the
coid boiled ham came out on the eastern
HORIZON rs the sun slipped down the
west. The Professor came and went in
silence, and he lived his daily life in his
own solitary fashion. Every evening he
went out In the garden beside the house
and smoked his big briarwood pipe, q
relic OF college days. The garden was
pretty, and Just on the other side of the
fence was another still prettcr. The
Professor frequently pecred through the
renee at this Gardca and wondered who
kept IT IN such exquisite order. IL he
Lad known that every time he peeped
through that fence he was watched
closely and by a young woman. he
would have sunk through the earth, if
he could.
In the next house lived the remnants
OF one ol tho prImGval families of Gum
bietown. Even that isolated village had
old families and blue blood, and when
old Jonathan Gumblcton, after whom the
town was named, had died forty years
before, he LETT two young sons, who
FASTENED to marry and extend the
family.
The widow Of one of these sons lived
in the house to which belonged the pref.
ty garden. She had daughter, aud
that daughters name was Alice Mary
Gumblcton. Blue blood frequently de.
clines to associate with beauty, but in
this case it did not. Alice Mary Gum.
blcton was as beautiful creature as one,
or even two, could wish to see. Her
hHir was as black as the shades of night
her large eyes were a deep, soft brown,
her complexion was like the bloom on q

way to describe her mouth except by
saying it was one of the most enticino

A SALEM TEAM RUNs.-"The Sill
verton Tribune says: Quite lively
runaway occurred on our streets yes
terday morning. A couple of in
surance agents drove fine bay
team, attached to top buggy up
in front of the bank and left them
standing while they went into the
bank and proceeded to transact
some business. But the team soon
became restless and started off at no
slow speed. The men, hearing the
rattle of the buggy rushed out of the
bank, but too late to prevent the
lively run which the borses now
took. They "fairly flew" down
Main street, turned the corner and
started for Salem, via the depot.
They were captured, without the
buggy, unharmed, somewhere be-
tween Silverton and Salem. AT
last accounts, the parties had not
succeeded in gathering together all
the pieces of the buggy, which it is
said, was scattered rather promis-
cously along Water street and the
county road. There should be an
ordinance passed against allowing
teams to stand unhitched on our
streets and severe penalty attach
ed thereto for violations"

The Small Pox Epidemic.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10-Health
Officer James w. Keeney received
an important communication yes
terday from DR.. G. A. Ruggles, re-
Gently appointed medical inspector
of the state board of health. DR.. Rug
giles has just returned from Victoria,
B. c., where he was sent to ascertain
the exact condition of the smallpox
epidemic in British Columbia. He
is now at Ashland, Oregon, and says
that many cases of smallpox exist in
nearly every large town in British
Columbia. He writes that he has
reliable information of the existence
of fifty-eight cases in the pest house
at Victoria, two cases having been
discovered since August first. The
Indifference which marked the at
titude of people in that section of the
country when the disease first APP
peared has now given place to the
greatest activity and energy. DIR.
Ruggles intends to go to the Cali
fornia line and make a thorough ex-
animation of every passenger on ev-
cry train that passes into this state.
He will remain there for two or
three weeks.

Nor NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. talk
has grown out of the order of the
council for crushed rock improve
ment, and not little feeling. 1t is
now stated by those best posted that
the movement will fail,-in short,
that the mayor will veto the ordin-
auce and that it cannot be passed
over his honor's head. This being
the case, it will simply defer all inn
provement just so much longer. To
a man up tree it looks as though a
council elected under pledge of inn
proving our streets could hardly af-
ford to make such a record. Since
this issue was made at the polls at
the last election plenty of time has
elapsed to give us better streets, aud
if this is not done soon it can simply
be regarded as broken pledge.
