What Will Happen if the American Wom-

There are indications that the Ameri-
can woman is gradually growing taller
and larger. A few years ago the aver
ago skirt length taken in the fashion
able dressmaking establishments was AZ
inches, and AZ inches was the length
used for all the model gowns sent owe
here from Paris. The model length has
now increased to DO inches, and the in
crease in other measurements is in pro-
portion.
The middle aged American woman
shows an inclination to grow broader
across the hips and shoulders and stout
er and thicker across the arms, but the
college graduate, the university woman
and the debutante grow more gracefully
vigorous every year. The typical college
graduate is from two to four inches Ion
ger from the waist down than formerly.
Her waist in getting longer, her chest
fuller and her limbs narrower. The
middle aged women grow corpulent and

THREE BOYS AND A FISH.
But 1t Wa . Devilfish and Caused Lots
Of COmmOtiou,

But 1t Wa . Devilf1sh and Caused Lots
Of Commotion.
b. g. Guild of Sheridan, Or. was in
Portland recently and narrated a story
which has been almost the sole topic Of
conversation in Sheridan for several
days past. BE said:
ION Thursday Frank Wileheart, Burt
Ray and John Krebs launched their
rowboat just south Of Sand cape and
went out about two miles from shore to
try deep sea fishing. The sea was as
smooth a. glass, and the boys succeeded
in catching a number of Goldfish, rock
cod, goabers, kelp and sea bass, when
suddenly Ray pulled a hideous looking
monster to the top Of the water, which
proved to be a huge cuttlefsh. Then
began a battle. The cuttlefish fastened
its long arms to the bottom of the skiff,
and the boys in their efforts to pull it
loose nearly upset the boat several times.
By degrees the monster was shaken from
it's hold on the bottom Of the skiff, and
then it began to feel for the occupants
Of the boat, its beady little eyes snap
ping with rage, giving it a vicious ap-
pearance. One Of the boys wanted to
let it go, but it kept climbing into the
boat and reached for the fishermen, when
Frank Wileheart, realizing that they
had al ugly customer to deal with, be-
gan to use his clasp knife upon the arms
Of the thing. It was only after he had
slashed off a portion of every tentacle
that the cuttlefish was drawn in and
dispatched with a boathook.
"The boys had several narrow escapes
from being seized by the monster, which
they brought to Woods with them. It
measured from the tip of one tentacle to
the tip Of another on the opposite side,
a portion of both arms having been cut
off in the fight with it, 10 feet and 8
inches. '-Portland Sun.

A Boy Lassos a Puma.

A 15-ycar-old boy named Juan Ro-
mero,. at the Blythe ranch, on the Col
orado river, lassoed and captured a
mountain lion. He was out with his
lariat looking for q horse, when noun
tain lion attacked his dog. Ee had no
weapon but the rope, aud throwing it
lassoed the lion around the neck. Haul
ing it tight, it began to choke tho in
furiated animal, which began to jump
and struggle to get away, tho boy all
the time hauling with all his might en-
the lariat. In n of the wild plunges
made by the lion he jumped into the
cir, coming down behind a stout mes
quite bush, but not low enough SO that
he could touch the ground. The boy
held on his end, with the lion suspend.

dead, having hanged himself. The boy

offered ~ evidence the state objected
ana demanded proof Of the town eoun.
CHS authority to pass such ordinance.
This brought up the question Of the L.
gality Of the towns incorporation. The
records OF the commissioner court
were produced and they showed that in
1883 the commissioners gave an order
for such incorporation, but did not
show upon what authority. On its face
the ordinance gave no evidence Of ever
having been passed and published, and
after hours argument the court ruled It
out. Thereupon the defense offered in
evidence the ordinance book containing
tho ordinance which relates TO
peuons tearing down pounds and in.
terfering with the pound master. but
this too gave no evidence Of having
been passed and was not even dated
The court was about TO rule the whole
out when the defense produced the
minute book. which contained q record
OF the passage Of that certain ordinance.
The argument, which was heated, lasted
until late, when the court ruled admit.
ting the validity Of the ordinance, at
the same time allowing It to be intro.
duced as evidence.
In bis ruling Judge Mayhem severely
reprimanded the old officials OF the town
for the slipshod manner ia which they
kept their records.
Another stormy argument followed
the attempt TO introduce the com plant.
but the court admitted the same.
The object Of the papers was to show
that Bechtel acted under authority In
forcibly taking Mrs. Kercheval, and the
prosecutions only hope Of conviction
would seem to be la dismantling the
officer Of this authority, as they have
been lighting on purely technical
grounds.
On Friday the case progressed with.
out much objection from the prosecu-
ton and the witnesses for the defense
were examined, the testimony going 10
show that Bechtel did not use more
force than was necessary in making the
arrest and that Mrs. Kerchevai resisted
with all her strength. An attempt was
made by the prosecution to impeach
justice Hoskens' testim ony by placing
Mira Flood and Eliza Kercheyal on the
stand. The testimony Of these wit.
nesses was contradictory and the at
tempted impeachment failed.
The fight on the legality OF the war.
