those who have seen her could not
but admire her splendid art. No ac-
tress was ever held up to public gaze
as was Miss NetherSOle when she first
presented "Sapho' before a New York
audience, and at no time in the history
of theatricals has the New York press
devoted so much space to the first
performance of a new play as they
did to "Sapho."
One of the most remarkable things
in connection with the success of this
play is that, while meeting with con-
demnation everywhere for it's holiness.
and while the critics of the metropolis
were attacking it from all points and
directions, the public suddenly came
to realization of the fact that
Sapho" was not nearly as bad as
many other plays which have been
accepted and won lasting success, such
as Camille" and "Zaza," and, in spite
of the vicious attacks and vivid edi-
tor1als Of the New York press, Sap

in theatrical history, and played on
unlnterruptedly to the biggest receipts
ever recorded at Wallack'S theater in

WHAT HE HEARS
About Oregon-Bad Roads, Incessant
Rains and Unproductive Soil.


Somebody is telling queer tales
in Nebraska about conditions in
Oregon. A letter received by J. J.
Cady from E. A. Bell, of Beaver
City, Nebraska, relates some of
the stories that go the rounds
with reference to Webfoot.
Mr.. Bell has disposed of his farm
in Beaver precinct, and expects to
make change of location. He
has desire to make tour of the
Northwest, and will probably do
so next year. In his letter, he
says:
"Of course, we hear a great
many of the disadvantages of your
country; such as incessant rains for
six months, impossible roads, inn
perfect apples, non-productive soil
in many localities, moss-eovered
buildings, etc. I cannot but think
that there are a great many ad-
vantages not elsewhere found; at
least, am so far convinced that I
have decided to take a trip through
that country aud examine for N.Y.
self.
"a great many here have gone
to Forest Grove, thinking that
place preferable to your town and
county. How is the demand for
carpenter work now. and how will
it be in the spring? How are
teachers paid in country districts.
and in towns? Is there canning

vanced any recently? Are there
any buildings going up in your

A ROUTE ORDERED
First Free Rural Delivery for Cor
vallis-Begins February First.

It seems likely that Corvallis is
to have its first free rural delivery
in the near future. About a week
ago Postmaster johnson received
from Senator Mitchell, a letter say
ing that the proposed northern route
would be established just as soon
as appropriations now pending
should become available, or some
where between February Ist and
March Ist- A dispatch from Wash
ington in Saturdays Oregonian an
nounces that Congressman Tongue
has arranged with the postof1ce
department for the establishment
of a number of new routes in West.
ern Oregon, among them an .ad-
ditionaI" route for Corvallis. As
no free rural delivery route is now
in operation, the use of word 'ad-
ditional' makes the matter in a
measure uncertain, as an appl1c-
alton is in for a second route. The
latter proposes a service along the
Cardwe11 hill road to the westward
and across the Willamette to the
eastward. 1t is not believed how
ever, that it is the latter that is re-
ferred to in the dispatch, but that
it is the northern route that is to be
now established, application for it
having been filed months and
months before the other was sug-
gested.
fit is the northern route that is
referred to in the dispatch, it will
be put into operation February .1st.
It proposes to leave Corvallis via
Mountain View and Wells road
going as far north as Blakes, thence
returning to the Mountain View
school house, thence west to O.
Martins place, thence east across
the country past L. L. Brooks to
the Richland school house, and
thence back to Corvallis via the
Albany road. The route will cover
about IS miles and serve about
100 patrons. Under the summer
schedule it is expected that the car
rier will leave Corvallis after ar
rival of the noon mails and make
the trip during the afternoon and
returning to Corvallis in the even

MALT MADE FROM RICE.
Consul General Cole Writes From
Dresden of New Process.

Consul General Cole Writes From
Dresden of a New Process.
In the latest consular reports receiv
ed at Washington there appears d let
ter from Charles l.. Cole. consul gen
eral at Dresden. describing an inven
ton by Eugene e. Schrottky of Ores
den for the making of malt from rice
The process. which is now being per
fected. has already proved successful
and promises TO cheaper the cost OF!
producing malt liquors in Europe
A primitive method OF mailing rice
says Mr.. Cole. has been known in Asia
for many years. but the arrack pro
duced is fiery liquid. and the SO call
ed rice beer did not find favor excep
among the natives. The inventor claim.
that in the old process only about AZ
per cent Of the rice terminated, al
equal amount failed to terminate
while 20 per cent decayed. tainting the
fermented portion and resulting in al
unwholesome product By means o.
the new system. which consists essen
tally of treatment of the rice lasting
FIVE or six days Of alternate soaking
and oxidation at a uniform tempera
ture. nearly every grain of rice is found
to have terminated. and the sprouts
have grown about twice as long al
the rice grains. The malt will then bs
ready TO dry in the usual way or use6
at once as green malt for the manu-
facture of beer. spirits or glucose.
Mr.. Cole is Of the opinion that. while
the invention may not be valuable il
the United States. where the prodnc-
ton of barley is large and the cost
comparatively low. IL seems likely te
cheaper the cost Of producing malt
liquors in Europe and Great Britain
where they are consumed In such large
quantities.

Training a Cat to Retrieve.

With patience. gentleness and entire

trained a common cat to retrieve His
education began by leading him up to
all game that had been killed. which
was followed by the cat seeking the
game himself. Next he was taught to
stay close by his master. at first perch
ed ON his shoulder. He was then taught
not to fear the sound of a gun. When
the gun WAS fred common ball was
thrown forward by the master. and
the cat soon found out the connection
between the report of the gun and re-
trieving. 4 dead bird was afterward
substituted for the ball. being at first
thrown from the hand and later on
dropped from the branch of a distant
tree. and the eats education in retriev-
ing was completed. He retrieves per-

Tiny Painting.

A Flemish artist has produced what
is said to be the smallest painting in
the world. 1t is picture of miller
mounting the stairs of his mill aud
carrying a sack of grain on his back.
The mill is depicted as standing on Il
terrace. Close at hand are horse and
cart. with few groups of peasants
idling in the road near by. All this is
painted on the smooth side of grain
of ordinary white corn. Those who
have seen It are loud in their praise
of it. Though it is drawn with perfect
accuracy. il is necessary 10 examine
1t under a microscope. Ii does not
cover a half inch square and is in many
respects one of the nost remarkable
art products of the day.
