board has made various demands on
the fair board, for the payment Of this
debt, but without result, and now the
land board has instructed the attorney
general 10 investigate the matter and
see II the mortgage can be foreclosed,
and he stated yesterday that he thought
proceedings would be commenced with
in short time. and unless the ieglsla-
ture interferes and appropriates the
necessary money for paying of the
mortgage, the propery win have to go
to the highest bidder. The property IL
estimated to be worth at least $4,000.
Secretary wyiie A. Moores said: ~The
state board Of agriculture has no funds
or income available to pay this debt.
Our only source OF revenue is gate re-
celpts and concessions, together with
the 10000 appropriated annually by
the legislature, which can be used for
no other purpose than paying prem
iums. The other revenues are neces-
sary for the payment Of the expenses.
The land belongs to the state and the
state owes the money to the state, and
except specific appropriation be made
for It's payment. I don't see how IT can
be DONE

Sorry Plight
OF State Fair
Owes the People About $2O.O 900,
and Suit viii Be Brought TO
Force Settlement.

Salem. June 80. = The state Land
board Is about 10 begin suit against the
state board OF agriculture for the fore
closure Of mortgage against the state
fair grounds for the sum Of $4,000. and
the question viii arise as 10 whether or
not the Oregon state fair. supported In
part by appropriations from the legis-
lature. and owned by the state through
warrantee deed. can be purchased by
private parties.
In 1885 the old Oregon Agricultural
Society under whose auspices a state
fair has been held for number OF
years. went before the legislature and
secured an appropriation from the gen.
eral funds for the payment OF debt, and
the act making this appropriation pro-
vided that the governor should appoint
Ia part OF the managing board. the other
members 10 be named by the old asso-
cIatIon.
The affairs Of the board still running
behind. the sum Of $4,000 was bor-
rowed from the state land board out OF
the school fund at per cent interest.
This was done on December 20, 1890,
and the loan was made necessary on
account OF the period Of hard times
through which the country had Just
passed. One year later the fair board
was notified that the note was due, but
as there was no funds with which to
pay. the matter was allowed to stand,
until 1899. when the board found itself
with a depleted exchequer and $1,000
additional indebtedness hanging over II
In the form OF warrants marked "Not
paid for lack Of funds.'
The legislature was again appealed
to. and again made the appropriation
for paying the indebtedness, but this
time required that the lands be decided
TO the state. A new board OF managers
was then appointed. known as the state
board OF agriculture. consisting Of five
members. which still controls the fair.
The transfer was made subject to the
mortgage. 80 the condition now is that
the state OF Oregon owes the school
fund the sum OF $1,000 and nearly So
1000 additional interest. The state land

 An examination of some pamphlets published in China has led us to think how small the world is becoming.

this kind must be treated mentally. for a place to hide. Awkwardness of The child must be encouraged, fattered bit. and thrust into company.
 But the other-the purely physical awkwardness-it Is like unmaking the work of nature to loosen joints that seem to have been born stiff, to turn angular motions into curves. The clay must be remolded, and the clay is fast hardening.
 There Is no school of grace that com pares with the dancing school Many physical culture exercises give pupils practically the same motions that fam cy dances give, but the result will never be as good. especially in the case of a stubborn child. I am afraid little Miss c. Comes under htis heard. But I can't help being a bit sorry for her and those toes that insist upon turning in.
 Punishment may drive to duty. but never to beauty. Can you imagine be- ing spanked out of pigeon toes or slap ped into a straight spine? Only coax ing will accomplish the end, and the less the child knows he is being coaxed the better.
 Nothing serves this purpose so well IS dancing. Gymnasium work Is ex- cellent but for a child who Is disin- clined to help himself in the matter dancing serves best of all. for the req son that 1t Is an entirely sugar-coated pill. The youngster may claim that a gymnasium class bores him-the mod ern youngster has reached the point of being blase-but dancing never does. He Is given calisthenic lessons in school; he is used to them. But dancing. with its attendant joys of slippers and fluffy frocks and music and ainy programs and glives-this is the dessert of life.

Dear Miss Katherine Morton: Can you tell me how to make my little daughter graceful? She is really a awkward fashion. I cant bear to have her grow up in this way. I realize how much grace means to a girl and woman. cannot seem to impress it up- on her that she must turn her toes I punish her. but this does no only grows impatient and says. Oh. I can't bother all the time about my old toes I punish her. but this goes no good. Please send me one of your valuable suggestions.
 Mrs. E. S. G.
 am truly sorry for Mrs. E. S. G., for grace comes very near to being born, not made. and beauties of this kind are hard to acquire. Hair may be thickened, eyebrows may be trained into a pretty curve, hands may be whitened, shoulders may be broadened but grace of motion is an elusive thing It has been called innate-a thing born In the blessed, as much as the power of painting or the voice for singing. But persistent effort will disprove the theo- ry that 1t Is only innate.
 There are almost no children who cannot be educated into grace. True enough, some come by 1t naturally. and no help Is needed, while others are so awkward by nature that you must give constant effort to the unmaking of their ways. Mrs E. s. G. has hard work before her. but if she Is in ear nest she can make beautiful woman out of the ungainly little girl
 Awkwardness comes from one of two causes-a mental cause or a physical. In the former case. the child is awk- ward solely because of diffidence and self-consciousness. He may be as grceful as others when unwatched, but the moment he thinks he is noticed his legs take on strange quirks. his hands double in size, his arms are at q loss

German Officers as spies.
Always Busy Acquiring Information os
 Military Value.

Always Busy Acquiring Information os
 Military Value. Leslie's Weekly.
 How many know that every German naval officer who is ostensibIy taking, holiday in the United States is inl reality a spy? That is the plain En- glish word that best fits the case though, of coudse. even the Germans do not call their officers in foreign countries by that name. The reason IS that the German naval officer is nev-i CT off duty. When on a holiday he Is expected to go to foreign countries! where he must endeavor to visit ar- senals. inspect battleships and acquire as much information as possible, hacked up by rough maps nd sketches. all of which he sends back to the Ger. man admiralty Hence. when a Ger- man naval officer visits" the United States his "visits' to fort Wadsworth and to our navy yards and ship yards are not entirely disinterested.
 Every officer in the German navy is taught to sketch from memory. and, &C., cording to his skin in drawing. he is marked out for promotion. When the German trading ship Charlotte. with the crown prince aboard. visits" the United States, as she will in a month on two. on her cruise around the world. certain 1t Is that the officers will go ashore and make memory sketches" which will efterward be mde Into maps. Thus, should Germany ever be at war with the United States the fact that we have hospitably afforded ops portunities for sketching our fortified positions will prove of immense advan- tage--to the Germans.
 For every German experience in such matters Is recorded. as hve said, for future use, and thus holiday" experieny ces are utilized for checking. correcting and enlarging German naval maps and chrts of places not only in the United States but also in all prts of the world. Turning to the German argy, the sama memory sketching" and the same making of maps re expected of aIl officers off duty" particularly in tha United 6tatez- and. El@lAA

The dramatic story of Andrew Johnson's appearance in the Senate in 1875. when, sev- en years after his Impeachment trial, he faced again his former enemies and perse- cutors is graphically told by Mir. Julius Chambers in the current Harper's Weekly. The incident leads Mir. Chambers to recall some of the memorable scenes of the pro- ceedinss of 1888. Tho trial was A farce-- mockery of legal procedure. The Sem ate chamber was the scene of a social car nivai-like an intellectual debaunch' of profane history.
