Buried Alive.

The Seminoles shoot those convicted of
capital crime, and are not very skillful at
1t, according to United States Commission
er Albert Lennie, who reports that they
lately buried one man alive. The execu.
tioners were drunk and only wounded him.
A negro then brought rough box coffin
to the side Of the wounded man, who pro.
tested against the proceedings as vigor.
ously rs his strength would permit. As.
sisted by two other negroes, the body was
put in the box and an effort made to nail
the lid, but the victim pushed and kicked
against 1t SO that the task was accom-
plished only by two of the men sitting on
the lid while the other drove the nails with
the utmost nonchalance. The interment
was then made.

No Cats to lBO Had.

The manager of one Of the big candy
stores on State street, says the Chicago
Tribune, advertised in morning paper,
offering q pound box of candy each to
those who would bring him ten black cats.
The manager said the other evening:
There has not been cat brought in yet.
l advertised In good faith. The house Is
full of rats and wanted to send an army
of cats after them. but the matter Of ad-
vertising for cats and dogs has been run
as joke SO often that it has become a
chestnut. People reading my advertise.
ment evidently believed that it was an.
other joke and not cat was brought.
supposed that the store would be crowded
with children dragging the reluctant fe.
lines, but there has not been a single cat
carrying applicant for the candy prize"

A Young Mems Book

is "Under Orders" the story of a
young man who became reporter,
10y Kirk Munroe, author of "Dory.
mates" "Campmates," and other
tales of the better class of boys
literature. There is sufficient plot
and excitement in this latest to hold
attention even of older readers to
the end, and all the mysteries of the
hidden machinery that grinds out
the modern daily newspaper is ex-
posed to view by a skillful hand.
The story is wholesome, will endure
placing in any library Of fiction,
aud is neatly published by G.. G..
Putnam's sons, New York
If some Of our booksellers would
take more palms to keep this class Of
boys books on their counters, they
would certainly confer a favor on
the community. Here is a publica-
tion that is instructive, exciting, and
at the same time not obscuring true
ideals of life. 1t is elevating to
think that this publishing house is
one Of the few that will put moth
ing but good and pure literature
upon the market.

CRoPs.-Owing to the late rains
there was only medium acreage of
fall wheat sown. But with a good
distribution of rain in May and
June there is assurance of a big
crop. Parts of February and
March were favorable to a good
deal of seeding, and the entire
winter was very favorable to stock.
More than the average rain fell last
week, but absense of frosts was
good for early fruits in blossom.
There is more pleasure in seeing
snowbanks of cherry blossoms on
the ground than the genuine borean
article Of the beautiful. The peach,
apricot, some varieties of prunes,
pears and cherries are generally in
full bloom, and so far in good con-
dition. Earlier varieties of straw
Berries began TO blossom last week.
If rains continue there will be no
frosts. The smaller fruits and ber-
ries are developing nicely. The hop
men are busily engaged in working
their yards, preparing for the COM
ing crop. The acreage is being in
creased in most of the counties.
The weather has not been favorable
to the lambing season, though the
losses are much less than usual.

But he was sheared and fed to look

Easter lilies and cherry bloome'

DIR. CORWIN SPEAKS.
DIR. Corwin spoke from Joshua on
witnessing for Christ and against
ones self This is what bothered
the moral man, the non protesting
believer, who refused to confess be-
fore the world. His objection was
to putting himself in place where,
if he went wrong, he would have
to witness against himself, and
incur the criticisms made on those
who professed Christ.
Such a man possessed good char
acter and his only wrong was avoid
ing the responsibility which Chris
tianity intended he should assume.
To be Christian was to assume GER
tain moral responsibility and the
non protesting believer left lOophole
by not avowing publicly his princi-
pies. Joining the church in the
true understanding was the easiest
and the only right way to settle the
question whether we were for or
against Christ and his church. The
speaker supported this with numer-
Gus quotations, showing that setting
up the plea of private purity was
denial of Christ. A confession with
the mouth was what was needed.
All talk of our lives being an evil
dence of our professions was futile.
1t was mems Christian profession
that provoked criticism and enmity
and comment over their shortcom-
ings. This was literally suffering
for Christ's sake.
DR.. Corwin's address was closely
listened to and was a fine prepara-
tion for the weeks of revival work
that are to follow.
AT THE CHRISTIAN
church a crowded house greeted

discourse specially preparatory for

school; while bad behavior means
black marks and the longest con-
finement. Besides Superintendent
Miles, who is thoroughly versed in
reform school work, there are now
six teachers, guards, etc. The boys
do their own laundry work, etc. At
nine O'Clock at night they are
marched into a large room, where
all are disrobed and their clothes
locked up, so that they could only
escape in their night gowns if M
attempt was made. 1t will be seeu
that it is no play house. 1t is very
easy to get boy in the school. The
directors of a school district have the
power to sentence an incorrigible
school boy. Justices, city recorders,
etc., have the authority.

TnE FoLLY or MANY PARTIES.
The Portland Telegram pokes fuu
at The split in the parties and the
tendency to create numerous new
parties:
1.-THE Prohibitionists having cut
loose from the Labor party, or what
ever it is called, ought TO feel able t.
breathe freer. But II Is evident that
other secessions, disunions aud dis.
ruptions are to follow. In theiI
platform adopted Thursday, they
put one Democratic tariff plank
Yet it is presumable that on the
tariff questions some Of the Prohi'
bitionists are protectionists. Shall
they not now secede and organize
a branch party to be known as the
protectionist Prohibition party
Again, they do not all agree on
woman suffrage; surely it will not
do for those holding different views
on this subject to live, move and
have their political being in the
same party. There are other differ
ences of opiuion among them, so
that there is opportunity for half a
dozen or more parties to be carved
out of the Prohibition party yet
Of course they will be very small in
numbers, and nobody will pay any
attention to any of them, but there
seems to be a good deal of satisfac-
tion IN score or two of people, who
are better than the rest Of humanity
putting themselves up for office, and
proudly voting for themselves and
for one another.

OREGON REFORM SCHOOL.
Senator Myers Tells How the
Children Are Managed.

There are some Salem boys and
Salem parents liable to have a per
sonal interest in this newest OF
state institutions located at Salem
There is general impression that
life in Oregon's reform school is sort
of picnic for the inmates. This il
far from true. In fact the discipline
IL, as it should be, strict. The school
is prison for bad boys, with reform
atory advantages. Hon. JEFF Myers,
who recently investigated the work
iugs of the school, tells an Albany
reporter some interesting particulars.
The boys on entering are made clean
and dressed in neat gray suits. Then
they are examined as TO their quali-
ficalions, both as to work and
studies. A certain portion of the
day is given to each. The boys are
taught a trade according to their
inclination or fitness. At present
though the trades are limited. At
their meals they sit at table with six
or seven together, ana have good,
plain food. Each one lows his
bead tetore eating and asks a bless
ing, until all have done ii. Neither
at heir meals or at work are they
allowed to speak to each other with
out permission. II they do black
