Carelessness of a Landlord.

Floyd, the 2-yearold son of Tode
Dash, came near ending his life to-day
by what seems to be the carelessness of
the owners of the building in which
they live. In the Hoham block on La
port street a stairway leads to the flats
over the Laport street bakery and the
Peoples drug store. The hall is about
twice as wide above as the stairway,
leaving width of floor of about eigh-
teen inches on each side of the stairway

Against the Southern Pacific.


A case involving title to 100000 acres of
land situated in Multanomah and Clacks-
mas counties, near Portland Gre, will
come up in The United States court tomor-
row. The case is known as the Overlap
land case" end is brought by the United
States government against the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company. The contention
of the government is that 100000 acres.
having been given to the Northern Pacific
in 1873. were not included in the grant to
the Oregon and California which has been
absorbed by the Southern Pacific, and the
Northern Pacific prior grant excluded the
land from the grant to the Oregon and
California.
But the Northern Pacific failed to build
fro m Waltula to Portland, and it's grant
alcrg the Columbia river was forfeited to
the government. and as the overlapping
la nd was never included in the grant to the
Oregon and California, it cannot be now
included. The land is very valuable.

CLOVER CLUB WIT.

One of the victims of the Glover club Of
Philadelphia. who has good reason to look
back upon his experience at a club dinner
with anything but pleasure. is Austin Cor
bin, the wealthy New Yorker. A writer
in the Plttsburg Dispatch says Mr.. Cor
bin: "Mr. Corbin's name came up during
a talk with some gentlemen in the corridor
of the Fifth Avenue, and one of the group
remarked that while COrbin was a hustler
he wasn't much of an after-dinn.r orator.
AT a Clover dinner said the story teller.
COrbin. who was then president Of
the Reading. was called upon TO
make speech. He unwillingly
arose, stammered and finally re-
marked: "Mr. Chairman. as I am not
much accustomed to specch-making, I am
greatly embarrassed"-"And, uttered a
deep-voiced guest at the banquet board,
80 is your BANKED old road" This CON-
pletely paralyZed Mr.. Corbln. but II let
him out of a bad hole and introduced him
to the customs and follies of the Clover
ites.'"
