A Bitter Dose to Swallow.
Baker City Democrat.


Il seems that the Salem Independent had
some reason for talking when it observed a
few days since ''that the site for the brasch
! luuat1c asylum has already been selected by
Governor Pennoyer, Secretary Mcbride and
Treasurer Metschan and that those places
besides Pendleton that have put in an ap-
plicaticn may as well let their hopes mist
away That the board of consulting .phy-
sicians are being sent to other places only as
subterfuge in the interests of this board,
which wants no hornets nest stirred up in
the bunchgrass country this close to cleo
tion."
When the Democrat. upon the
above clipping one day last week we stated
that it was our opinion thaqoIr contemporary
was talking through its hat. bat We are not
so sure about this now, since it has leaked
out, and from what the Democrat considers
reliable source, that while the board OF
physicians was at Pendleton last week, ex-
Indian Agent Crawford, of Umatilla county,
was asked If he would accept the superin-
tendency of the branch asylum which was
to be located at Pendleton.
The Democrat trusts that there is mis-
take somewhere We would deeply. regret
to know that the board would be guilty OF
perpetratlng such low and contemplate
trick

peculiarities of Growing Trees.

A tree has many peculiar charac-
teristics, and some of them puzzle
the scientists, as well as the chemist
who makes the analysis. When the
leaves drop off or twig withers and
falls, they leave small scar, which
never disappears. A slight excres-
cence is left to record the existence
of the missing member-just as a
man who loses a toe or finger never
gets rid of the scar. There is some
times tendency in trees of the oak
and maple species to send out from
their young limbs more wood than
they can support, and this causes
contraction at the point of insertion
or from where the stem starts out,
and the fiber becomes sometimes
twisted, so that it obstructs the flow
of sap. The young limb in such in
stances withers and drops off, leaving
all along the bough small excres-
cences sufficiently large to account
for the tapering of the portion of
branch where the death occurred

Black, fat and forty, pretty bad sort
But, Lord, how she's trying to "hold the

This Queen of the Sand wich 1slands.
She lived for years on the fat CT the land,
Which she grabbed from all with ruthless

Till they cast her out for a contra band,
This @ Ieen of the Sandwich Islands.
But this cute little chick did clever thing,
She worked" the whole Democratic ring,
And finally crawled under Growers wing

But managed the Presidents dickev to

A SENSATION IN CHURCH.
An Inquisitive Dog Created Consternati
In a Puritan Catherine

An Inquisitive Dog Created CONSERVATION
In a Puritan Gathering.
Some curious stories are told in
connection with old Puritan church
CUSTOMS" said Mr.. Hezekiah Butter
worth. 'Some Of the old customs
seem very funny as we see them
now. ''It was little less than a
crime not to attend church in those
old days unless detained by sickness.
In fact, a person was thought very
little of who even came late to Sun
day worship.
Zone Sunday morning in early au-
tumn Puritan woman, whose repu-
tation for housekeeping, spinning
and church attendance was excel
lent, was belated in her morning
work. She took her long necked
pitcher and went to the pasture
where her COW was waiting to be
MIXED. This duty done, she found
for she could see people on the
road-that she hadn't time even to
carry the milk back to the house and
get to church in season. So she took
her long necked pitcher along with
her and sat in the gallery right near
where the singers and bass viols
were displayed. After the singing
was over and the long sermon had be-
gun-sermons were an hour or two
long in those days-she grew sleepy.
Her long necked pitcher sat on the
floor near by and near the front of
the gallery. She was soon oblivious
of either milk, sermon or a dog that
came pitpatering up the gallery
stairs. The milk soon attracted the
dog. He smelled and wagged his
tail, then smelled and wagged again,
then looked inquiringly at the uncon-
scious milkmaid He made up his
mind very soon, and into the long
neck went the dogs head, neck too.
He couldn't get much milk and
wanted to pull back and try again.
But he couldn't. His head was
wedged fast in. He pulled and used
his paws and tried to back away.
Blinded of course by the pitcher, his
steps were erratic, and suddenly to
the astonished people below there
appeared sudden parting of the
balcony curtain, an almost blood
curdling yell was heard, and there
was a flash and downpouring, straight
In among the four unconscious dea-
cons in the deacons' pew beneath, of
snow white milk, long necked pitch
er and milk soaked, frightened dog
For once there was a great awak-
ening in that church, but the poor
woman was frightened nearly out of
her wits, and the superstitious dea-
cons were greatly scandalized. "-Bos

Krier, and was himself unharmed: "We et-

places. Shortly afterward horse stepped

neatly as biscuit cutter gould have done

burned, while investigating its explosive
power, with other children. A few days
ago mule kicked him In the abdomen
Yesterday morning at 8 o'clock he was
shot in the stomach with 32-caliber bull
let, and still lives. The bullet went in
and came out again without laceratIng

A Conflict of Authority.

The late Lord Chief Justice Cock
burn was an inveterate enemy to
drafts, and on the opening day of the
Surrey assize several years ago gave
orders that all the windows should
be closed. Upon arriving at the
court the following morning he was
surprised to find that this injunction
had been neglected, and upon in
quiring was informed that the high
sheriff was the culprit. Addressing
Mr.. Evelyn, the high sheriff, he in
quired the reason. LAS the high
sheriff, your lordship," replied Mr..
Evelyn, 81 consider it to be my duty
to superintend the ventilation of this
court, and I have therefore directed
that the windows shall not be closed. :"
"As lord chief justice I consider it to
be my duty, SIR" thundered Cock
burn, ito fine you $500 for disobedi-
ence" And the money was paid too.
