No one seems to want Office this year
Judging from surface appearances. At
least there appear to be no aYowed can
didate for any Office. Interest seems TO
settle upon the "Road Resolution" that
is to be submitted to the voters for their
consideration and decision.
It has been suggested that there
should be more Items in the paper.
Some one will have to take pity on the
aScribblero and give him something to
.scribble about by gong off and getting
married, or "dyeing," or clipping. or rid

VERDICT FOR MRS. EDDY.
Mrs. Woodward Loses Her Suit
Against Christian Science
Leader.

Boston, June Tt have examined
this libel very carefully, both while the
arguments were going on and during
the trial. I think the plaintiff has sus-
tanned her case as 1 have already in
tinated upon the matter of publlca-
tion. AS regards the publication Ill
the church, there is no evidence that
anyone there understood the alleged
libel as applying to the plaintiff, so
that she could not recover damages
upon this court because she had shown
no injury from it.
Taking the libel itself, I see moth
ing which can i'll any fair way be said
to indicate the plaintiff in the first part
of the libel. The only thing in the IL
bel, 1t seems to me, which by any rea-
Sonable interpretation can be said to
serve as means of Identification are the
words widow and '@idowhood,' which
occur in the latter part of the message.
II have come to the conclusion that
even that reference does not absolute
ly identify the plaintiff, and 1t seems
to me that the plaintiff has not made
out case which 1 can let go to the
jury. I shall therefore be obliged to
order verdict for the defendant"
With these words, in the superior
court, Judge Chas. U. Bell yesterday af-
ternoon brought to sudden and unex-
pected end the famous S150,000 libel
suit, brought by Mrs. Josephine Curtis
Woodbury., of Boston, against Mary
Baker Eddy, of Concord, N. H, foun-
der and present head of the Christian
Science church.
A few minutes later the jury, which
had been excluded While arguments
were being made, was summoned into
the court room. After explaining brief
~ the cause fo, this course, Judge Bell
ordered the jury to find for the defend
ant, which it accordingly did in the
usual form.
Counsel for Mrs. Woodbury. filed ex-
ceptions on all the questions passed
upon They have not yet decided upon
definite course of action, but author
lied it to be stated that they expect to
carry the case to the supreme court
This far reaching decision Of Judge
Bell was given in response to one of
two motions offered by Mr.. Elder, SEN
icr counsel for Mrs. Eddy. This was
that n verdict for the defendant be
ordered on the evidence as it stood
The other motion, which was not sus-
tanned, was that the two counts in the
declaration referring to the publication
in the two Christian Science periods
calls be Stricked out.

The three diseases which kill Off the
great number of Gagged animals are
ricketts,, "lumpy jaw" and tuberculosis.
They are caused In the main by the
wrong food being given, want Of sun
light and poor ventilation. An animal
in the wild state when it kills its prey
first drinks It's blood and then devours
Its organs. The lean meat is eaten
last, If at all. But for some reason it
has heretofore been the custom in ECO
logical gardens to prepare the food by
bleeding the animal and removing all
the fat

There is probably no country on the

found anywhere else such a pleasant
combination. Game abounds every
where, and nowhere does it afford such
perfect amusement. A noted sportsman
writing Of the favorite pastime says:
There is one particular spot where
saw man drop seventy mallards one
morning, and bring them all to bag,
too, for they dropped in open water or
on fat prairie. At the right season of
the year you can see black lines and
triangles cut sharply out against the
sky all round you, moving very swiftly,
and you begin to wonder whether you
have enough cartridges to hold out.
You can hear the prairie chicken crow
Ing like barn-door fowls; and little
to the northeast is a bit of marshy
ground, cattle-poached, and dappled
with cleaning pools, where the snipe

where you can buy the finest butter

prices.
"A very short railway journey will
bring you to a country full of deer and

moose will stand knee-decp in water on

Had Considerable Fan.

Corvallis boys had consider
able fun on halloween night at
least to judge from the reports
coming from our neighbor town.
One party made up of promi-
nent young men, we'll known in
Albany, made a raid OH a
chicken house and just about
the time they emerged from the
hen roost with an arlnful Of
fancy Plymouth Rocks, a special
officer appeared on the scene and
escorted two OF the boys to the
ealaboose. The rest Of the crowd
suddenly made themselves scarce.
The next morning the two cap
tives appeared in the Police
Court and entered a plea of
guilty and the Judge assessed
them each $40 and costs for
their fun. The boys were over
to Albany the other night and it
cost them several boxes of candy
and all kinds of trinkets to quell
the good natured disturbance.
