HISTORIC OLD iRONSlDES.
How She Escaped When Pursued by Seven
 British Warshjps.


 The Constitution, or Old Ironsides, as she is famiiiarly known, is the most famous of all the wooden ships that we have preserved, says writer in Har- per's Young People. Time and again did she vanquish the English ships in the war of 1S12, and proud were the people of her captures. Probably the most thrilling incident of her career was her escape from seven English men-of-war after an exciting chase of nearly three days and nights. The chase began on July r, 1872. The Con stitution was out for a long cruise, and was weighed down with stores. The sea was calm and no wind was stirring, Capt. Hull put out his men in boats to to tow the ship. They pulled valiantly, and as night came on the 'kedge" anchor was run out half a mile ahead. The crew on the ship kept pulling on this, and the Britishers didn't discover for a long time the secret. Finally the English saw it, and adopted the same tactics, and by doubling up their crews began to pull their famous ship Shannon near to the Constitution. A light breeze sprang up and saved the American ship for the time. There was calm the next day. and the agonizing struggle went on. The next night another light breeze came up and the tired sailors obtained a little sleep. The next day there came a sharp breeze after many hours of struggle. The Constitution trimmed her sails to catch it, the boats dropped back and the men were caught up as the ship gathered headway. The Guer- r1ere, of the English. fleet, came abeam as the wind freshened and fired a brOadside, but the shots fell short, and the Constitutions men ignored them and calmly went about straightening up thsir vessel as if they had just left port and such thing as an enemy was unheard of. As long as the Constitu- tion can be kept together she will probably be seen at Portsmouth, N H., where she is now doing duty as a re- ceiving ship. Our old ships have al- ways been proud, and it has amused some of the thoughtless officials of other nations; but there was bravery in their pride and absolute courage :. that has always been the embodiment of that famous saying: Don't give up the shipH' We frequently hear laments that the old soldiers are dropping away fast, l always share that feeling, but l also include in it those wooden ships of the navy-scarred veterans most of them are, worthy of the abiding re- membranee of grateful people.

THE NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.
He Is the Nobiest Species of the Whole
 Canine Race.

He Is the NObie5t Species of the Whole
 Canine Race.
 The Newfoundland dog takes his name from the island where he is sup posed to have originated. Many, how ever, believe that the Norsenen, who discovered America in the year 1000, in troduced this dog in Newfoundland He is by some classified among the wolf-dogs, while others, on account of his large pendulous ears, say that he should not belong to this family, but that he and the St. Bernards should occupy place by themselves.
 The Newfoundland, says Harper s Young People, since his introduction in England, has improved in appear ance. and is now larger and heavier. In Newfoundland and Labrador these dogs are used as beasts of burden, drawing considers ble loads of wood and provisions on sledges. Their feet are partially webted, and therefore they are most excellent water dogs. The scent is not strong, and as the dog is slow and clumsy, he is not valuable to the hunter, except as retriever when speed is not required.
 In the island of Newfoundland this dog is almost totally black, but the English varieties are usually black and white. As 8 watchdog the Newfound- land is only second to the mastiff. He is amiable to children and small dogs. Kept in confinement he often gets cross and ill-tempered, and flies at those for whom he has previously shown the greatest regard.
 Where 8 dog cannot be allowed to run, and must be chained up, the New foundland should not be kept. This dog is a great ife-saver, and by in stinct will jump into the water to save even an enemy from drowning.

very funny farce, to make one forget that
there is such thing as melancholia.
The songs are said to be exceedingly
bright and catchy, comedians full of
wit, medleys that are brand new, pre-

wonderful success.

They Met Last Night.

The Teachers Institute held its fisst
-peeting last evening in the courthouse,
and the interest taken by the public
was well attested by the crowd that
flied the courtroom to overfowing.
Hhe exercises were fine. The music by
the double quartet, consisting of Profes-
sor Stratton and pupils from the high
school, was perhaps the best thing of the
kind ever heard in The Dalles. Besides
Professor Stratton, those composing the
double quartet were Myrtle Michel,
Georgia Sampson, May Sechler, Daisy
Allaway, Glen Allen, Chester Starr and
Curtis Egbert. The duet by Myrtle
Michel and Glen Allen was also very
good. Mr.. Allen has an exceptionally
good tenor voice, and can rest assured
that it was heard with great deal of
pleasure by the large audience on his
first appearance. The recitations were
all good, that OF Miss Catharine Martin
exceptionally so. The discussion of the
adoption of Oregon Text Books'' did
not take as wide range as the subject
would permit.

On Monday morning bright and early,
the Daily Kennebec Journal appeared in
a bright and sparkling dress of new type,
the most of which was set by their new
Thorne type setting machine, which is
accounted a marvel in the realm of
machinery. This is the second machine
that has been set up in a newspaper office
in Maine, and does its work splcndidly.
1t is only another evidence that the enter
prising proprictors of the Journal intend
to do everything in their power to give
the very best to their patrons This has
been their steady purpose since they pur-
chased the plant, and we have watched
