Badly Beaten Butcheck.

Henry Bntcheck, whose family lives
near Monroe, arrived in town Saturday
with his head bandased. The Dalles
Chronicle thus accounts for the bandages:
''Dr. Sutherland, in The Dalles, We'd
nesday morning, had a piece of crazy
quilt patchwork in the surgery line that
is seldom equaled. The man who fur
nished the job was Henry Butcheck, who
halls from near Corvallis. the work cover
ing the entire scalp, which was cut in
twenty places. and there would have been
more had not many of the cuts been of
the continent kind. When the Chronicle
man called at the doctors Office he was
engaged in giving the man haircut un-
der serious difficulties, preparatory to
stitching and dressing the gaping wounds.
Where there were no cuts the scalp was
q pulp, and it was all done by friend
and travelling companion of Butcheck's,
with an iron bar and without malice.
'Butcheck says that he aud his friend
had been working near Dillon. Montana,
and were beating their way home by the
box.car route. The friend carried an
iron bar to defend himself against the
brakemen in case they were too forcible
in inviting them off the trains. But
checks companion is somnambulist,
dreamer of dreams to some purpose. for,
in the early hours os morning, about an
hour before the train arrived here, this
friend, so he told ,Butcheck, dreamed 4
brakeman was choking him and trying
to put him off the train; that to defend
himself, he grabbed the iron bar and
began slathering away at bis antagonist.
The blows walked Butcheck. and then the
| other fellow woke up and the trouble
ceased. The man who did the beating
abandoned his companion, probably fear
ing that he would get into trouble''

tribute to an educator of prominence in
the west, who at one time held a chair in
the university of Oregon: Pres. Catch,
president-elect of the State Agricultural
College at Corvallis, is man for whom
the people of Oregon have an especial
liking. He was for many years lead
ing. educator of this state. He is loyal
and patriotic citizen. He will have
hearty welcome back to Oregon"

mix. The beets are ground up, the
juice pressed out and classified, and then
it is viewed through the polariscope. If
the RVS of lisht passinp through are de-
fected, sugar is present, and the degree
