AGAINST FOOTBALL.

The faculty OF the State university
has passed an order that 1t VIII en-
deavor 10 prohibit the game Of foooall
n ,xt year. The plan is to have meet
ing of all college presidents 10 the state
with one representative student irOm
each college, 10 drcide whether the
game be Suppressed all over the state
and. if not, TO formulate more humane
rules for regulating the games. Inc
game billed for Eugene December loth,
between the Monmouth normal school
and the State university teams, h' 8
been declared of, and also another, al
ranged for between the second ii oil the
State university aud the Drain nOrmals,
who were to play on the same date.
The Corvallis Times says il is stated
that the Forest Grove university boys
have declined to play football with tie
GA G team next Saturday.
Football and athletic sports are tie
only loopholes of escape for a lopsid' d
education that our young men and We
men are now given at our schools and
colleges, where their intellectual facul-
ties are developed and all the physical
life, vigor and activity of youth aIe
suppressed.
Violent physical exercise is the re-
action against anaemic mentality th'
Is enforced by curriculum DEVOTED to
the intellect only and that results 10 a
one-sided college product, in defiance
of sound principles of education. Col
lege athletics are today the redeemir g
feature and hop ful sign Of the possib e
production of rational and useful
manhood and womanhood. We hard y
know what to expect of our state uni
varsity In some respects but that 1t is
going to be able to drive football cut
Of Oregon as a college sport is
about as unlikely as that 1t could stop
the south wind from going bowling up
through the Willamette valley at GER
tain times in the winter; If it wants
to become entirely coDgregating place
of habby, heshless dudes, that is good
step TO take. There is an excitement,
heaIthful invigorating enjoyment, the
rush and force of young manhood in
the mass, under good genearlship that
requires the keenest exercise of the
mental faculties, that has made 1t dis
tInctively college game since cen
turies.

A NEW DEAL AND ECONOMY.


The salaries of state, county and city
flicials must be honestly adjusted TO
to present conditions, and the increased
purch sing power of money, by the in
coming legislature. Officials now in
rflice must recognize the emergen'y
that exists and wherever it can be done
salaries must be adjusted even for
officials now 10 Office, whether it be 10
raise the compensation or lower it, the
law to take immediate effect. Ofcourse,
many officials will Object to this, as
who does not. They will say they are
not accustomed to working for such re-
duced figures. The people are not ac-
customed to such reduced wages, in
comes and even rations, but they have
to g. used to II, ',and those holding Office
an1 drawing salaries will have TO get
used to IL with them. That is one rea-
son why the people are going to insist
on new deal all around in our state
affairs because new men can be put iD
who will work for great deal less.

The Dog ON Guard.

One of the postoffice Officials. of Bos-
ton IS the owner Of 4 bulldog that he
would not part with under any cir
cumstances. This dog considers it his
special duty to ride to and from the
depot and postoffice on the mail wagon
and keep guard of the mail sacks, says
the Globe. He has folio we'd this Gus
tom for a number of years.
One night, after the unloading of the
mail Car, he started to ride, as usual,
on the bags on the wagon, but when
the p~ostoffice was reached he was not
OH Goard. This was strange, for here
tofoce no temptation had ever been
strong enough to lure him from his
post. Tire sacks were delivered, and
as tie Nan called them over one was
found 20 DC missing. The wagon driver
hurried back to look along the streets.
After searching over a good part of
the route lie suddenly discovered the
dog sitting in the gutter wagging his
tail, and evidently overjoyed at being
recognized. On going up to him the
driver found the dog sitting on the lost
mail sack. He had evidently noticed
it when it fell from the wagon, and
had Immediately jumped off and stood
guard over it.

A deep wheelbarrow is more useful
than One built Oh the old plan. because
it will hold more, and the work of
building such Il barrow is not much
greater. Any one who owns a wheel
and irons belonging to an old wheel
barrow can easily construct one by
first procuring two stout pieces for the
shafts and mortising them together
firmly just behind tile wheel. The next
mortise must come two inches from
the ground on the legs ut A.. From
this mortise the floor Of the barrow
must reach forward to B, where it is
supported by two false legs mortised
into the shafts and reaching within two
inches of the ground. The sides may
he solid from the floor up. or If prefer
red, they may extend only to the top
of the shafts, and from this point NOV
able sideboards may extend upward.
The only disadvantage in having the
body solid is being forced to remove
most of the load from between the
handles. This wheelbarrow is especial
~ useful in carting leaves, etc., and in
handling heavy stones, which are load
ed upon it with ease, because so near
the ground. If one desires he may
arrange a movable bottom, which will
permit the load to be deposited with
out tipping by merely raising the han
dies.

Coming Across In n Cockleshell.
A novel experiment in ocean naviga-
ton is to be attempted by a Noting
ham enthusiast, who has been occupy
ing himself for a year past with the
construction of a boat in which he pro-
poses to cross the Atlantic, during tho
forthcoming summer. The vessel,
Which Is built Of iron and is entirely
of his W design and make, Is only
10 feet 6 inches long, with 3 feet beam
and 2 feet 6 inches depth, and Is thus
the smallest craft that has e at
tempted such an adventurous voyage.
1t is what is known as the whale
back" deck, and the cabin, lighted by
glass windows at the side, will be CON-
pletely watertight when closed, fresh
air being obtained by pipes. Should
the tiny craft be overturned the inVen-
tor claims that it will automatically
right itself. She will be fitted with a
ten-foot mast from the fore deck with
jib and mainsail, and additional mo-
tive power will be supplied by a gear
ed handscrew. The navigator intends
to start from Nottingham, sailing down
the Trent to Hull, and making the At
lantic by way of the English Channel.
He expects that the trip will occupy
him something over q month.-LOndon

Making the Best Of Failure.

Making the Best OF Failure.
TO make the best Of ones failure and
r istakes is at once one Of the ra.est
and greatest &c gifts. To .'ealize that
one is face to face with failure and to
present a smiling visage to disappoint-
ment destroys to a great extent the
sting thereof. !. One Of the most beau
tiful characters that the world has ever
known, loved for his sweet simplicity
and for his exquisite self-denial, which
qualities have reared for him an en-
during monument of esteem In the
hearts of all who are familiar with
his career, was Charles Lamb, and to
him IN no small measure was granted
this gift. He was quick to realize his
failures, and by his attitude toward
them completely disarmed criticism.
As an illustration OF his habit in this
regard, there Is told IN amusing story
OF how he Kissed his own farce Mt its
first presentation. The farce, accord
ing to report, was woftlly devoid OF hui
NOR, and 20 undramatic as to be to-
tally unit for production on the stage.

thought. IN my agony. "Why does not
her busl,ard save her from this death
and me firm this crime?"
Her h, stand! That was the solution
of the mystery-he had hypnotized me,
after all. and 1 was the agent of his
will. But why was l to kill his wife,
my darlin-s sister We're?
Then / ,:::nember the words he had
motto s:"ep.
ra.i:c,- Missed. "Fool! But greater fool
do yru hear? for me! Your pulling,
wh',e-iaced sister must be removed,
and ;1u must do it! Yes, you shall kill
her, sud suffer for the crime, leaving
me free far love-and Alcida"!
All was !,lain to me. / knew that I
was compelled to shed my innocent
sisters blood. All this l / knew, yet had
no power to stay my W murderous
hand. Think of my position. and i'm
agine if you can, the mental agony I
endured.
Advancing closer to the bedside, and
carefully drawing back the coverlet,
l raised the knife to strike-thcn the
little clock on the mantelshelf shimed
two!
1 had regained my will. With a cry
of infinite relief I flung the knife from
me and rushed out Of the room. Hath
erleigh was still seated beside the fire
when I burst, breathless, into the smok-
ing O
l called him by name. But he re-
turned no answer-he was dead.
No doubt my brother-in-law had died
at two o'clock precisely his death being
due to the intense excitement conse-
Quent upon the strain he had, by hyp-
nothing me, put upon himself. If so,
the reason of NV sudden recovery Of
will power is p'::n enough, for with
his death lis influence over my will
naturally c"ased. Anyhow, I am more
than tina oS :nl that something between
heaven and earth, until then undream-
ed Of in my philosophy, saved me from
committing a crime of which my moral
innocence would have availed me little
in a court of justice.
What became Of the Senorita Alcida?
Oh, she Is now my wife!

Too Many Precautions.

"Women take too many precautions"
said a policeman. II was standing on
my beat at Broadway and Second
street one afternoon and noticed a well
dressed man about a hundred yards
farther up. He seemed to be waiting
for some one, SO 1 did not disturb him.
Shortly afterward l saw a nan and his
wife come out of n of the fashionable
houses and start toward ne. They
had only come a short distance when
I saw them stop and the woman turn
back. She went to the door and tried
the knob to see If the door was secure
ly locked. The well dressed stranger
was a sneak thief, I am sure. He
watched the whole proceeding, which
told him as plainly as words could
that the house was entirely deserted.
I started out on my rounds again and
didn't get to the corner during the rest
of my watch. When I reported for
duty at the central station at II o'clock
that night the lieutenant read a notice
of q HOUSEKEEPING. 1 recognized the
number as being that Of the number I
am talking about. The fashionable fel.
low did the work, l would bet my life,
as soon as the owner Of the house and
