There is wonderful electric light pole
in South Brewer at Brewer and Main
streets. just what makes this particu-
lar pole SO remarkable is the fact that
pansies grow on it, and that these pam
sizes do not begin to grow any day until
about O'Clock in the afternoon, when
all at once, as if by magic, handsome
little bouquet will appear. 1t stays for
only few minute, When it goes away
just as quickly as it appeared. 1t disap-
pears so very quickly that travelling
photographer who was going to pick
them looked in open-eyed astonishment
to see where they went Now this phe-
nomenon is causing lots of talk among
South Brewer people. some say that it
is caused by the electric current which
passes on the wires which are hung to
the pole.

JOIN AND SEE.

The action of the pope concerning
secret societies will not hurt the latter
materially, but will injure the church.
The societies, as such, will pay no at
tention to the matter, as religion and
politics are strictly forbidden in all, or
nearly all secret societies. Each recog-
nizes the right of every member to wor-
ship God according to the dictates of his
conscience. The reason given for the
pope's action is hardly satisfactory. If
he, or anyone else, wants to know
whether or not there is anything harm
full in any secret order, the means of
finding out are convenient. There is
nothing to prevent preacher, priest or
pope joining these. societies, as the only
questions asked in joining most of them
are, "Do you believe in Supreme
Ruler of the universe?" and care you
in good bodily health?"
Secret societies are for benevolent pur-
poses only; they are fighting no creed,
no religion; on the contrary they in
culcate good morals, friendship, charity,
benevolence, love, truth and hope.

James G. Fair. the greatest of all the
miners who won fortunes from the Com
stock, and ex-United States senator
from Nevada, died at San Francisco late
Friday night last. His will shows that
the supreme sel6shness that guided him
through life, remained and abided with
him in disposing of his vast wealth.
His only public bequests are three. to
the orphan asylums in San Francisco,
and aggregating $125, 900. AS the stock
gambling, in which Fair was promi-
nent manipulation, aided largely in fill
ing the said asylums, the gift is appro-
pirate. In many respects Fair was a
remarkable man. As a reader of hu-
manity he had few equals; for bulldog
pertinacity he excelled Grant, and for
cold bloodedness he out-froze CIeve-
land. He will pass out of the memory
of his fellows, however, very quickly,
for he was not a man who made friends.

"James Elkins, who has been on a trip
to the Carolinas with horses, has re-
turned to Albany" says the Oregonian
yesterday. 1t then quotes Mr.. Elkins
as saying he had "just escaped the big
eastern storm, but at Ogden there was
about six inches of snow and at The
Dalles two feet" When Mr.. Elkins
passed through here, if within the past
two weeks, there was not particle of
snow here. What might be called the
fret snow of the season fell last night,
and to the depth of two inches. If Mr..
Elkins' other statements concerning his
trip are as truthful as that referred to,
he will be able to act as amusement
committee for his home town for year
to come Mr.. Elkins was mistaken just
twenty-four inches in that two-foot
statement.

The horrible affair at Silver lake
Christmas eve, in which forty men,
women and children lost their lives, is
the most dreadful and heartrending ca
tastrophe that ever occurred in Oregon.
1t seems inconceivable that the fire was
not smothered at once, for this certainly
could have been done, according to the
reports of the affair. 1t is quite proba-
BILE, however, that those who could have
smothered the blaze, thought they could
successfully remove the burning lamp
from the building. SilverLake is an
isolated community, and the appalling
disaster has almost depopulated it. 1t
is situated about ninety miles south, or
east of south of Prineville and the sup
plies for the place are nearly all shipped
from here.

Some of the railroad commissioners
claim that Engineer Sherman was to
blame for the accident at the Summit.
Sensible people put the blame on the
railroad commissioners for allowing
trains to be run over the roads longer
than the sidings. Further blame is at
tached to them for not insisting on the
roads having three brakemen whenever
more than twenty-cars are hauled in
one train. The railroad commissioners
are excellent gentlemen, but the COM
mission itself is useless and expensive
wart on the body polite.

but the witnesses swear they paid it.
Comstock has been accused of accepting
