Hold up your hands," pulled the
trigger. Dad fell to the floor with
a bullet in his right breast. With one
bound Kenny gained the top of the
tender, and bringing his gun to his
shoulder, sent a shower of shot nj
most into the face of the man. How
the fellow managed to move six inches
is a mystery, but he did ard made for
the woods. The shot which laid En-
gineer Prescott low was signal for
a fusilade, and also the signal for the
hasty retreat of the robbers to the
shelter of the timber.

BITERS BADLY BITTEN.

CORN, Mo-, Sept. 1S.-The Colorado
and Utah express Oh the Santa Fe
was held up by robbers at $50 Il. m.
today. AS the railroad and express
officials had spy on the trail of the
bandits, when they stopped the train
they met hail of buckShOt and bull
lets, and it is said that at least two
are dead in the surrounding woods,
whf1e as many others rode for the
rendezvous, p miles away, riddled
with bullets. They shot Dad Pres
colt, the engineer, before they even
gave him chance to hold up his
hands. His wounds it is believed, will
not prove fatal. When the train left
Chicago at ) O'Clock last evening. the
railroad and express detectives, all
walking arsenals, climbed on at every
station. Among them We're Chief De-
tective J. J. Kenny, of the Santa Fe,
and J. A. Matthews, who has been
acting as a spy for two weeks and
getting news of the robbers plans.
The latter brought the news that the
robbers early in the day decided to
leave their hiding place, near Men,
phis. at $50 o'clock last night, and
make their third attempt to get rich
at the expense Of the express compa-
ny. They expected to make haul of
at least $4,000.

bankments, just one mile from Gorin.
sped the train, there came the looked
for signal, and not 80 years away
was the swinging of a red light.
Within 20 seconds the train was at
standstill. Out from the dense under
growth north of the track came four
forms, the face of each hidden by IL
black mask. One rushed to the ell
gine almost before his companions
could reach the express car. Within
ten feet of the tender he pointed a
rifle at dad" Prescott, the white
bearded engineer, and, as he shouted

five varieties of strawberries have
been tested, and out of them 1 have
found three varieties, the Haverland,
Outer, and Micheal's Early, which
are far superior to any variety now

THE BOTANICAL DEPARTMENT.
Although our space is limited we
cannot overlook the Importance of
this department to the farmer. This
department of the college is under
Prof. Moses Craig, who answered all
our little questions and showed us
through. but by this time we had
got used to opening our eyes in as
tonishment. Plant physiology is of
the greatest Importance to the student.
The object of this instruction is very
like that Of human phys iology. AS

know it's physiological structure; this
is taught him here. Cellular structure
is made clear from spoaA to full de-
velOped plant. by means of themicrO-
scope, charts and enlarged models

healthy plant ana its cellular con-
struction can readily detect dis

inestimable knowledge. In the study
of forestry their cellular strength is

The student is taught the classified
ton of plants; how to mount and
preserve them for reference. The de,
partment has some ten thousand speci
mems, of probably five thousand spe-
cies.

THE HORTICULTURAL DEPART.
NENT

Early in the morning of our third
day we again betoOk ourselves college
ward, and the first man we met on
the grounds was Prof. Geo. COote. in
structor of this department Mr..
Coote is practical horticulturist, and
has under This charge, besides the
green houses and college campus, some
56 acres in fruits, vegetables and eX-
pertinent plants. The green houses
comprise an area of $500 square feet,
and in them a visitor can well spend
a half day in observing the meth
DDS of greenhouse Horticulture, prop
agating. potting, planting and "uiti-
waiting flowers. Mr.. Coote has 414
named fruits under his care for diff
ferent experiment tests. Our call
was rather hurried on account of
Mr. Coote's state fair exhibit occupy
ing his time.
'The purpose of my department"
said Prof. Coote, after we had gone
the rounds, sis to instruct practically
students in horticulture land horti-
culture as science. We take up
the propagation of large and small
fruits; orchards. their planting and
cultivation. including the renovation
of old orchards; budding. grating,
nursery care, raising trees and plants
from seeds, and harvesting fruits and
vegetables. Our green houses are
well equipped for the study of flor
ticulture, which is for the girls only.
The girls are very eager to get to
this part of the work and enter into
it with a great deal of enthusiasm,
and the course is too short for them.
The culture of flowers and laying out
of grounds is very fascinating to
them.
'In our horticultural studies the
students are given practical instruc-
ton in application of the texts, be-
sides they have the advantage of all
our experimcnts-seeing them carried
on.
EXPERIMENTS OF THE DEPART
MENT

the renovation of the old college or
chard. which when l began was a
typical 'old farm orchard and it is
now better than any young orchard

By systematic cultivation. in the win
ter months to a depth of about eight
inches. and in the summer about four
inches. TIE key to successful reno
vation of old orchards is cultivation
careful pruning }and attention. 1t
requires about three years to renovate
an old orchard, or two years more to
replant one.
II have tried % varieties of peach
es on the college grounds, and ont of
that number of varieties l have found
none successful. There are localities,
however, in the Willamette valley
where peaches can be abundantly

said Prof. Craig, 'is to develop the
power of observation. When he has
completed the course, we expect him
to know when his plants. trees or
crops are diseased; what the cause
is and remedy: to be able to classify
any ordinary plant and its adapta-
bility to climatic conditions and soil"
This department is very interesting
and lack of space is regretted in
which to do it justice.
THE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSE
HOLD ECONOMY AND HYGIENE.
Lastly we visited Miss Margaret G..
Smell, the instructor of this depart
ment. at her home Miss Smell is a
instructor among her girls. Last year
40 girls received instruction in her
department daily.
THE object of my department ~
said she. sis to teach young ladies
how to cook; family higiene-how to
take care of their own health and
that of family; how to furnish a
home; how to make her own clothing.

branches.
"Yes, sure. there is an art, a sci
ence, and chemistry of cooking An art.

quires a great deal of practice to

'In cooking they have twenty les
sons or lectures, practically illustrated

Health is of great Importance, and
but few things contribute so much
| to the welfare of family. A course
of lectures is given of the principles
| underlying hygenic living.
"Our course of sewing extends
through one year, including a book
of samples, and CONCLUDING with some
| finished garment. Every girl should
| know how to make her own clothing.
"a course of lectures is also given

a science and the principles under

out taste, harmony and good effect
in house furnishing which every wo-
] man should know.

of industrial work very readily, and
are very much interested.

the other departments here, gives him

"Yes, as you see, we have been MAX
ing goodly number of improvements.
In the first place our old engine was
too small. and has been replaced by
forty-horse power engine. To the

THE BEST PAID AUTHOR.

Rudyard Kipling's seven words for
$1, said to be the highest price paid
any literary man of our times, reads
very small in comparison with what
was paid Judge Paxton for q literary
article. Until Mcleod came on the
scene, the Read ing Railroad had used
an old sign at the crossing, Beware of
the engines and cars" with a mass of
further instructions in small print. In
some suit for damages it was claimed
that the warnings were not clear. Nc
Leod went to Judge Paxton, who COM
posed this admirable notice: "Railroad
