Ear-EIerCing that Cau5cI Death.
There was a death reported the
other day of young woman and the
cause given as cerebro meningitis,
but developments 20 70 show that
the death was of a sensational char
acter and one that may serve as a
warning to some unsOphistiCatcd
young girls, who might be induced TO
try a similar experiment. The death
referred to was that of Miss Celes-
tine Josephine Smith of l3I Water
street, and was rather sudden, the
young girl having suffered hut a few
days from very sore ear, resulting
from attempt upon her part to pierce
her ear with a needle. Miss Smith
had, like many other young girls, a
desire to wear earrings aud not be-
ing allowed 10 go to the Doctor de-
cided to pierce her own ears The
instrument used, as well as the man
ner, caused one OF those organs to be-
come very sore and in a day or two
erysipelas set in. Then Dr. c +.
Brent Of West Eighth street, was
called in, but he seemed unable to
relieve the suffering girl She grad
uallY grew worse, until il was found
that she was suffering from cerebro
meningitis. Just eleven days from
the timo she pierced her ears she
died and the doctor says that WIS the
direct cause of death.

Concerning the statement that Judge
Galloway, &hen he took Office as county
judge in Yamhill, found the county in
debt $50, 900, which debt he has paid off,
the Yamhill Reporter says the facts are
about these, viz: F'When he took the
Office the county was practically out of
debt, Notwithstanding that during the
term of his predecessor an $4,000 court
house had been built and great many
Improvements made. By the middle of
Galloway's term the county had become
pretty near bankrupt, and it required
the monstrous levy of 26 mills to bring
it out. The county is nearly out of debt
at present, but it is lin spite of rather
than through any effort or ,capability on
the part of the democratic nominee for
governor. Judge Galloway is good,
kind hearted and honorable citizen, but
unless the Office of governor is less in
tricate than county judge he had better
not be permitted to tackle it,

WHERE DIVORCE is EASY.

l never realized how simple marriage
and divorce could be until reading in
my Daily Graphic the other day let

customs of the Santals-one of the alb
original tribes of India.
Permission to wed must be obtained
from the circle headman. A price
(usually three rupees), with new sari
each to her mother and grandmothers,
is paid for bride, but for a widow
only half that sum, the argument being
that widow will have to be re-
turned to her first husband in the next
world. These formalities 1 presume
are dispensed with in the case of a
Bazaar marriage which is, however
equally binding.

She's hollow-cheeked dull-eyed. thin

The Looms Irnmediate1ess in Getting

Every treatise upon looms dwells adj

perlative degree. The question is often
raised whether they are quick enough
to dodge a bullet. L once had guide
who drew distinction quite too fine,
as l thought. He claimed that a loon
could see the flash of a percussion cap
at the breech of Il muzzlc-loading
piece, and could dodge. but admitted
that with the rifle loaded like all mod
ern ones, at the breecb, no loon could
escape shot rightly aimed. For
my part, l do not believe the inter
val of time between the fire az the two
ends of the barrel to be measurable by
eyes of birds or men, or anything short
of a chronograph. AS to the question,
however, it is possible to reason with
tolerable confidence. We know the
speed of rife bullet. Call it
fourteen hundred feet second.
Imagine your loon at that distance, or
nearer. Then reflect how slowly a
birds head must move to use up more
than a second in dropping a few inches
under water. Gravity alone would
carry it further than that. 1t is easy
to believe that if the wary bird hap
pens to be looking toward the hunter.
the rifle flash suggests danger. A half
second would give ample time to
dodge. provided the action begin
promptly. 1t is safe to say that it
takes looms weight in lead to kill
him. and we may call it settled that if
loon does not dodge bullet, at least
the lead goes down in the same hole in
the water.
