Macon Ga.

A stately, giant oak, with afar out
stretching arms, rejoicing in it's strength
and grandeur, is the pride of the forest.
The devastating storms of winter are
hurled at it's noble form, the winds sing
dirges through it's branches, the ice king
clads it in an armor of glittering ice and
the SHOWS lodge on it's branches and
form canopy of purest white. Still it
remains the pride of the forest and gath
ers strength from it's prosecutions.
An axe is laid at it's roots, and the
''pride of the forest" is numbered with
the past, and all that remains to mark
the spot of former strength and beauty
is an unsightly stump.
Dame Nature steps in and with her
matchless grace filings a mantle Of Grim
son and gold over all.
An orange tree is clad in it's mantle of
living green, with sweet-scented star
shaped blossoms Nesting in it's foliage
The woeing kiss theblossoms Of
purest white and they CULVER in rhyth
mical gyrations. The atmosphere is
redolent with perfume. But the reaper
loves a shining mark and nothing but
the withered form remains of what was
once bright and beautiful. Vines, with
their soft, clinging ways, claim the dead
tree for trellis, and see! it has renewed
it's youth and beauty and is vine-clad
and flower bedecked. The TRANSFORMED
ton from death to life, from unsightli-
ness to beauty, from withered branches
to festoons of rarest grace and beauty,
from ''the scared and withered leaf" to
an armor glistening in newness and
freshness of youth and beauty is magi
cal.
If we would initiate nature in her eX-
ample which she demonstrates in the
plainest manner, the taste would be de-
veloped and the eye gratified. E.

Flowers for the Table.
Orang County, Fla.

There is a great craze for floral decor
ations for the table, Color teas. dinners
and lunches have been in vogue for
sometime, and still hold their own among
many people. When flowers are bought
these entertainments become expressive,
but the ordinary mortal may entertain
friends at no very great expense. and
serve dainty menu wi IN artistic decor
atiOnS at small cost.
Most women do desire to entertain
and to do it in good style. But there is
more real enjoyment in simple meal
daintily served than in one more elabOr-
ate, with the hostess tired out and
flushed with anxiety lest something go
amiss. Study then the tastes of your
pleasant and companiOnable to each
other. DO not have too many at one
time, and do not OVerdO the matter Of
refreshments. For luncheon table with
Il polished top, without a cloth, is very
fashionable Just now a handsome center
piece is used for the middle of the table,
and mats or doilics are placed on which
to set the dishes and plate. Then the
table is set as on ordinary occasions.
Several fancy dishes are filled with con-
fections, sailed almonds and olives; these
put on the table together with a pretty
dish Of fruit or fancy cakes. The plates
are placed right side up, at each place;
knife is put at the right side and fork
at the left. If you have the pretty little
bread and butter plates place one at
each place at the left. If these dainty
bits Of china are not included among
your dishes, put piece of bread or roll
in a napkin and lay it beside the knife.
There should be a tumbler for water and
a salt cellar, for the individual salts are
again in use. For menu the following
is simple, and can be changed to suit
the personal convenience:

The Oregon Pacific.

Last Saturday q meeting 70 con.
slider Oregon Pacific matters was
held at Mil City. Superintendent
AIulcahy and Receiver HadIsy were
/ present. w. Il. Burns was elected
chairman Of the meeting. The
action taken was a resolution that
the creditors should FIRST present
their claims to the Receiver, if not
paid, then to the Court, then 20
the Governor. 4 committee was
appointed to attend to the matter.
A gentleman present atthe meeting
gives the following version Of the
matter:
The meeting was attended by
about one hundred and fifty men,
nearly all creditors, directly or in
directly. The present state Of
affairs was brought about largely
by the treatment received by some
of the creditors. One instance,
that Of K. G. Pierce Of Gates, will
suffice to show 20 the public the
character Of the present manage
ment. The road owes Mr.. Pierce
about four thousand dollars for ma
terial, and a few days ago he asked
for one hundred dollars to buy pro-
visions and pay some Of his men, to
which he received a reply from
Receiver Hadley worded something
like this: "What are we going to
get for this hundred dollars? Are
you going to put out any more
material?" Mr.. Pierce has the
etter to verify this statement.
Receiver Hadley and Superinten-
lent Mulcahy were present and |
When they found decided move
vas to be made tried TO compromise |

'lsions to those who would keep
III putting out wood, and lot of
Promises, such as the O. P. are ac-
nstomed tomake to their creditors;
'ut they were completely ignored. |
\ large amount of wood has been
ent to San Francisco, and TO date
o money has been received for it.
70 satisfactory explanation could
e given regarding this move than
nat part OF it had been sold on
me. The committee in charge in
md to force this matter to the
liter end. They are tired OF prom
es and wind about the road being
uilt over the mountains. They
ant our money now due from the
'ad and they will then talk about

Commissioner NJ. L, Trapp is
making preparations to take up his
residence in his handsome dwelling
in this city.
The sentiment seems to be gen
orally In favor of voting a special
tax Of three to five mills at the
special school election next Satur-
day. 1t Is very necessary that all
interested turn out and voice their
sentiments in the matter.
Beal Gather, of Toledo, the
newly appointed Indian agent at
the Siletz reservation, is in the
city. He will go to Portland to-
morrow. He expects to assume
the duties of his position about the
first Of the coming month.-Cor-
Wallis News.
The Corvallis Times kindly gives
Toledo's attempted incorporation a
nice little writeup, which is in the
main correct. 1t makes an error
however In stating that the various
officers had assumed the duties off
their officers. They had not got
that far along yet.
In justice to ourselves we wish
to state that the error in publica-
tion In notice Of city election re-
ferred to elsewhere was not made
by the LEADER. The notice as
published In the LEADER was in
accordance with the copy furnished,
the mistake having been made and
overlooked elsewhere.
Hon. Beal Gather is over from
the Agency this week completing
and filling out his bond as agent at
the Siletz agency. The bond will
be in the penal sum of $4,000.
but must be qualified in the sum of
$50, 900. Senator Crosno, of this
place Is performing Mr., Gathers
iuties while the latter is engaged
II the above matter.
