Speaking of the excursion the
Albany Herald says of Toledo.
The new brick depot at Toledo
presented beautiful appearance as
the train passed with the San Fran
cisco eXcursionists on board. 1t
was handsomely decorated with
bunting, flags, ferns and a large
arch handsomely trimmed, to which
was attached a banner containing
these words: "Toledo's welcome to
Oregon" traced in ivy, which was
among the very much admired.
When the train came to a stop three
of Toledo's pretty young maids en-
tered the coaches presenting each
OF the strangers with a handsome
boutoniere and pamphlet gotten
up expressly for the occasion, set
ting forth the history of that thrifty
young city and country and its re-
sources, in which the present MAN.

Excellent music was furnished both

and Corvallis bands. Robert Camp
bell, an old-time Oregon Pacific
man had charge of the decorations.

KILLING THE COYOTES,
Amusement and Profit in Idaho's Suuds
Hunting Excursions.

Amusement and Profit in Idaho's Sunday
Hunting Excursions.
Boise Dispatch San Francisco Fxamin.r
large party of men headed by Harry Eager
of Seattle enjoyed big coyote drive on the
sngebrush plains twenty miles southeast Of
Boise today. After an exciting chase thirty
splendid specimens Of the peculiar animal lay
dead upon the frozen ground. At this season
Of tho year the skin Of the coyote is heavy and
glossy and of considerable commercial value
Gager and his party sought the animals for
their warm coats, which they will have made
into garments
The hunters were provided with pack OF
fierce hounds and the party spread out over
the plains to encircle rocky butte much fire.
quented by coyotes. The dogs made the frosty
air echo with their deep notes. Within ar
hour after the commencement Of the hunt
twenty-one fine coyotes had been killed and
skinned
The hounds were then sent into = growth oil
sagebrush in little hollow in one OF the
abrupt slopes Of the butte. The dogs coruered
four big coyotes aud a battle royal followed.
The coyotes fought like four-footed fiends and
they badly injured five splendid hounds before
they succumbed. Their skins were nearly torn
from their bodies during the struggle and were
worthless.
few minutes later eight big coyotes were
started out OF another bunch of sagebrush
The cowardly animals darted across the plain
and tried to conceal themselves in a large flock
of sheep. They had no fight in them and did
not offer to modest the sheep, upon which they
usually prey. After much difficulty the coy
otes were driven into the sggebrush again and
then the hounds quickly dispatched five of
them.
Another drive will be held next Sunday,
when an endeavor viii be made to kill 100 coy
otes.

what One Woman Can DO in Upsettiny
Wall Street.
From the New York Herald
The extraordinary commotion one woman
can cause in crowd, and that woman a quiet.
seIf-contained, lady-like woman going about her
own business, is occasionally witnessed down in
Wall street or some similarly crowded neigh
borhood given over to males Of money getting
Tits one of the amusing things of the metropol-
itan streets. There are women in nearly all of
the big Office buildings down town. Men grow
accustomed TO female clerks, stenographers and
typewriters and the latter accustomed to male
business society One would naturally sup
pose that this familiar relation would tend to
deaden the shock Of sudden contact with any
thing in skirts or trousers. But it doesn't
swell woman of swagger attire who turns
down Wall street any business afternoon will
be assured of more attention than she ever
before in her life received. II she be dressed
as saw one last week it will be an ovation
This young woman wore a red dress, red wrap,
red hat, red shoes, red stockings, red gloves
everything in sight was red, save only her
hair and eyes, and these were black as a raven $
wing She had lovely figure and her springy
step and the spirited poise of her head pro-
claimed the Thoroughbred Men turned around
to look at her and bumped against each other
and turned and got banged this way and that
In the crowd because of this rare vision and
smiled and spologized only TO run into some
body else. Her course down Wall street from
broadway was productive of more collisions
than were ever seen since the last financial
panic. The whole stock market fell off and
things looked feverish-just for a few brief
minutes-then the Federal building swallowed
her up and Wall street relapsed into its Gus
tomas apathy for sill external things.

Turning Granite Columns.

From the Waverly MAGAZINE.
Granite for columns, balusters. round posts
and urns is now worked chiefly in lathes, which.
for the heaviest work, are made large enough
TO handle blocks twenty-five feet long and five
feet in diameter.
Instead of being turned 10 the desired size
by sharp cutting instruments. as in ordinary
machines for turning wood and metal granite
is turned or ground away by the wedge-like
action of rather thick steel disks rotated by the
pressure OF the stone it slowly turns in the
LATHE.
The disks. which are six OF eight inches in
diameter, are set al quite an angle to the stone
and move with an automatic carriage along the
lathe bed.
Large lathes have four disks, two on each
aide. and a column may be reduced some two
inches in diameter the whole length OF the
stone by one lateral movement of the carriage
along the bed.
The first lathe for turning granite cut only
cylindrical or conical columns. but an i'm
proved form is so made that .emplets or pat
terms may be inserted to guide the carriages
and columns having any desired swell may be
rs readily turned.
For fine grinding and polishing the granite
is transferred to another lathe. where the only
machinery used is to produce a simple turn
ing or revolution of the stone against iron
blocks carrying the necessary grinding or pol
ishing materials.

ANIMAL AFFECTION,
President Jordsn's Dog Waited for Its

President Jordsn's Dog Waited for Its
Masters Arrival.
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
"An instance Of animal affection came to nv
notice two years ago." said Aquilla Fleischman.
instructor OF physics in the University of Kan
sas, who stopped for day at the St. James.
sit was on the occasion of President Jordan g
leaving the State University Of Indiana. where
was then student. President Jordan re-
signed the presidency of Indiana University to
assume that Of the Leland Stanford Jr, Uni
versity at Pasadena, Cal. While president of
the Indiana University DIR. Jordan secured a
fine Bernard pup and took good care to raise il
properly. The dog soon became proficient in
many ways under the tutelage of Dr. Jordan,
and seemed fairly to worship its master Nightly
the dog could be seen in the Bloomington post
Office waiting its turn when the mail for the
president would be handed ont, inclosed in a
leathern pouch. With this pouch the dog would
trot away toward the residence of the presi-
dent, and woe to any one who attempted to
bar its progress.
CDR. Jordan on leaving presented the dog to
Prof. Hoffman OF the college. AT first the
dog was disinclined to part with his master
and upon meeting DR.. Jordan in the street
would turn away from Prof. Hoffman and
follow after. Being driven away once or twice
however, it made no further attempts at follow
ing him. On the occasion of the doctor 8
departure Prof. Hoffman, along with the other
members of the faculty. went to the DEPOT
The dog journeyed with him. 1t was here that
DR.. Jordan stopped and patted the dog on the
head and then entered the cars. The dog
watched wistfully for the temperance of the
good doctor. but in vain. Shortly after this
Prof. Hoffman noticed that his dog YVES absent
at a certain period in the day. The operator
at the depot also noticed the daily visits of the
dog to the station on the arrival and departure
of the pm. train. Being informed as to
whom the dog belonged he sent word and 1rof
Hoffman next day watched the strange sight
The dog came, expecting the return of its
former master. and waited patiently for the
approach Of the train. As the train neared
the depot it would prick up its ears and OBJ
serve the arrivals. 1t was only when the train
had passed out of sight that the dog would
depart. 1t was really touching scene, and
shows the depth of animal affection"
