Tho foundations of the new Chi.

area of five and q half acres, are COM
pleted. On account OF the magnitude
OF this undertaking there is general

have clear interior space unobstruct-
ed by pillars or posts. The exterior
will be of buff brick. The roof will bo
supported by tiers OF massive orpa.
mental iron arches, the construction
of which is particularly unique. The
front and east walls of tho structure
are already up eight feet, and tho
iron work has been started from the
foundry to Chicago. Three hundred
and fifty workmeu arc on the ground,
and as the iron work arrives 200 more

only one change in tho original plans Of
the structure, and that is in the build.
ing of the amphitheatre within the
building. This will be constructed in
such manner that it can be moved
in sections, and 80 that the lower tier
of boxes can be entirely removed, al.
lowing space for promenade, which
will be necessary as the society fea.
ture of proposed exhibitions.

WORDS OF WISDOM.


Tho face is tho photograph of tho

The man who believes wrong will
never do right.
TO find fault is easy; to do better
may be difficult.
Every man is volume if you know
how to read him.
Acivil tongue is better weapon
than slhngshot.
Lovo is about the only thing that
can euro laziness.
Talk moves fast when the burden OF
thought islight.
Too many try to point to the cross
with frown on the face.
When man is wrong and won't adj
NIT it, he always gets angry.
Tho truth we hate tho most is tho
truth that hits us the hardest.
Enjoy present pleasures in such n
way as not to iniure future ones.
Call not that man wretched who,
Whatever ills he suffers, hns child to
love.
He that is unwilling to receive as
well MS to give, has learned but half
of friendship.
Ono says, "Thcro aro people who
are encyclopedias OF everything that
should bo forgotten"
Ho that communes with himself in
private will learn truths That the null.
titudes will not tell him.
More hopeful than nil wisdom an

and his opponents. An article re-
Gently appeared in the Roseburg
Plaindealer, the authorship of which
is charged to Mr.. Hermann person
ally, which threatens, in case he is
not nominated next spring, that he
and his followers would bolt the
republican nominee. There can be
no two interpretations placed upon
the Plaindealer's language. 1t is
too plain to admit of it. 1t simply
notifies the republicans of the first
congressional district that they are
at his mercy, and disobedience 20
his demands is the signal for war.
Mr.. Hermann has strong follow.
ing III his district, and also some
opposition. He has, so it is said,
after each nomination for the past
six years, promised not to be cam
didate next time and give some
other aspiring statesman a chance.
But he has changed his mind every
two years, and he now positively
declines to have the congressional
teat taken from him and placed in
the mouth of some hungry brother.
Before this shall be done, himself
and friends will bolt the party,
This threat will be needed by the
next republican convention, and
Binger will be nominated. The
republicans Of southern Oregon
know that it is nothing new for
Mr.. Hermann to bolt, and they also
know that lie is dangerous as a
bolter. The only way the republic
cans can get the teat out of his
mouth is to replace it with another.
Office holding has become chronic
with Mr.. Herman. We predict
that he will readily compel the
grand old party to come to his
terms.-Portland Dispatch.

Gold Coins for Christmas.

Last evenings New York Sun says:
 "A long and constantly changing line extended to-day in front of the paying teller's window in the gold and silver coin division of the sub-treasury. A large proportion of the persons in line were after gold coin for Christmas pres ents. The line was also a big one yes terday, the total gold withdrawals in small sums aggregating $25,0O0.
 Some of the gold, however, was ob- tained on gold certificates, and also old gold coin was exchanged for new, so that the net loss to the sub-treasury was somewhat reduced. The sums of gold applied for to-day ranged generally from S5 to $100,
 "The suh-treasury authorities com puted that probably the total Christ mas withdrawals this year would az gregate $200,O0O They have not been much larger than last year. All the line before the paying teller's window did not represent intending gold with drawers. It included also applicants for silver coins of various denomina- tions.
