The State Teachers Institute now
in session at Newport, is having a
very profitable session. Many
teachers from over the state are
present, and several prominent
educators are among them. We
regret that we are not able to give
full account of the sessions held.
In justice to the Episcopal church
of this place we will say that neither
the church society nor its pastor are
arraying themselves against the
Improvement of the street in front
of the church property. Whatever
impression to the contrary that has
been made was made without the
knowledge or consent of either
pastor or society.
Antoine Selsic, an Indian on the
Siletz, met with what came near
being a fatal accident last Friday.
He was helping run a threshing
machine on the reservation, and by
some means his clothes got caught
in the bolts on a knuckle on the
tumbling rod of the machine. He
was drawn on TO the rod, and bv
the time the machine could be
stopped he was pretty seriously
injured man. One of his arms was
badly fractured and he was covered
with serious bruises. AT last ac-
counts he was in a fair way to
recover. Antoine Selsic is one of
the best and most industrious
Indians on the reservation.
