WILL BUILD COTTAGES.
At Inside Figures for Those who
Have Students for the College.


Present indications are that there
will be six hundred students in the
Oregon Agricultural College next
year. The demand for catalogues
and general information, which is
without precedent. justifies the esti-
mate. Families from valley coun-.
ties, Eastern Oregon and Washing
ton are already engaging houses in
unusual numbers for the school ses-
sion; and it Is noticeable that build
ings which could not be rented a
few years ago are being refitted for
service again.
It is understood that there are
parties in town, who have determin-
ed to build to order. on the install
ment plan, cottages and even more
pretentious residences for those who
expect to patronize the college.
These parties claim they can provide
very habitable dwellings for small
families or larger ones at figures
ranging from S. so upwards. 1t is
claimed by those who have looked
into the project that the savings in
rent and tuition in four years will
easily pay for comfortable home
in Corvallis. It is accordingly
claimed that the proposed plan for
building new cottages will result in
material increase of attendance in
coming years at the college.

he says, are attracting wide atten-
ton in the bureaus at Washington.

Pernot for perpetuating cultures for
controlling the flavor of butter is

very excellent discovery, and one
destined to be of great practical val
ue in dairying. Forage plant in.

onomics by DR.. Withycombe, with
co operative work in the same
line by Prof. Kniseley, were like
wise highly commended by DR.. Al

ROMANCE OF AN OLD HOUSE
Where Jefferson Davis Married Daughter
of Zachary Taylor.

4 little frame house that stands amid
grear beech trees in the rear of an i'm
posing structure of recent date near
Crescent Hill ami a record in the Jeffer-
son county court are all that is left to
tell Of Il romance involving famous names
/ that was consummated siXty-nine years
ago.
1t is little known by Louisville people
that in this house, which is now used as
servant quarters, Jefferson Davis, aft
crward President of the Confederavy, on
June II, 1880 married Miss Knox Tay-
l0r, daughter of Gen. Zachary Taylor,
aitcrward cOlqueror of Mexico, and
President of the United States.
In the Jefferson county courts ar
chives there is Il record of marriages for
1854 which contains the following:
Jefferson Davis and Miss Knox Tay-
lor, of legal age, daughter of Zachary
Taylor"
1t was n romance with sad sequel
Davis took lis bride to his plantation in
MISSISSIPPI. The climate was not ia
vorable, and the young woman. accus-
toned to the purer al of Kentucky,
could not stand the miasmatic eXhala-
tons of the swamps. Soon after her
arrival in Mississippi she grew i'll, strick-
en- with malarial fever. Within three
months Of the time she became a bride
she was dead.
The pathetic sequel makes Gen. Tav-
lGr's objection to the wedding seem 10
have been dne to the prophetic feelings
OF devoted father. He strongly disap-
proved of the match between his tlangh-
ter and Jefferson Davis, who was then
soldier with nothing to Indicate the
great, though mournful, career that was
before him.
This opposition was not due 10 dislike
nf IL
Gen. Taylor's fear that rs the wife Of
galiant soldier, on what was then the
frontier, his daughter would he subject
ed to many hardships.
But Miss Taylor was willing to face
any future for the man of her heart.
Mrs, Gibson Taylor, her aunt, espoused
the cause of the young lovers, and when
Miss Taylor came to visit her she added
her pleadings to those of her niece. Aft
er long course of persuasion Gen. Tay-
Tor, though not relinquishing his ohiec-
tlonS. was prevailed on TO permit the
marriage, which took place in the home
of Mrs. Gibson Taylor Ii is not known
whether Gen. Taylor attended the we'd
ding, though Mr.. Hancock TAYLOR is of
the opinion that he was not present
II was from this house that the young
soldier and his bride, after the usual
merry making, congratulations and bless
inSs SET out on a journey with happi-
ness that vas SO soon to be changed to
grief
Such is the story of long ago that cen
ters around this little house. whi IN now
stands to the rear of the residence oc-
cupied by n. Levy ON the Brownsboro
road.
At the time jefferson Davis and Miss
! Taylor were married within it's walls i
was Il two story structure, with broad
verandas built after the then prevailing
style for southern homes. Now it has
been reduced to one story and has ,cen
transformed into Il cottage --LoulSvi'l2

ORIGIN OF WORD "HooDLUM."
Started IN San Francisco as the Name
of a Half-Witted Person.

"tloodlum, that word which has
found pace in the yernacular of the
local leSico1. is we'll understood to apply
to Il class Of Objectionable Young toughs
wao nave 20 respect for sex, age or the
rights of decent people and no sense of
what Is proper or becoming in the char
aeter VI MIN TO whom the epithet is Just
ly appled-a hoOdlum today, criminal
tomorrow.
While the meaning of the term is well
understood by the people, few there be
who know the derivation of the word
and how 1t came to be forced into our
language. 1t is this:
1t WAS in 1872. when the Odd Fellows
held Il picnic at Redwood City On that
occasion gang of toughs ''butted in"
with the otherwise orderly attendance
Among the gang who went from San
Francisco was one whose name was
Hood bumfIx. Nature would seem TO
have had a farcical part in the creation
OF the original "hoodlum, for Hood
Lummix was most peculiarly formed
creature Clumsy, big-footed, with big
mouth and protruding teeth, thick lips,
big bushy head of hair of n dirty black
color, standing out like the qullS on a
porcupine. this almost uniformed speci-
men, as Is usual, attracted the attention
OF a lot OF young roWdieS who picked
upon him as being an easy guy" for a
day sport. Go where he might. he was
hN'tCNth " gang VINO nOOtpQ ana yelled
ana, IN brief. made things unnleasantly
hVeiY during the day, but more particu-
iiarly III the afternoon when the steam
beer commenced TO d. its work.
The amusement of the gang did not
confne itself TO the picnic grounds: on
the contrary they went outside. broke
INTO orchards and flower gardens, de-
stroying valuable property. and finally
wound up the day by shooting a valn-
able horse belonging to a rancher. This
last act was more than the sheriff of
San Mateo was prepared to stand ami
as result he bagged a couple of dozen
of the chief Offenders. When the cases
came up before the justice of the peace
IN Redwood each and every one of the
accused laid the entire blame on Hood
l4ummiX Poor. supplemented Hood got
SIX months in Jail, and in sentencing him
the justice, who was very much dis
pleased that he could not send the entire
gang to state prison, delivered lecture
to the offenders, i'll which h. said: II
now warn you to keep out of this county:
we want no more of Hood Lummix or his
gang to visit US" Hence the word be-
came coined By dropping the last sylla-
bic of the name, making the word as now
used, "hoodlum. San Francisco Call.

Chesty Newsie.

Beggars are seldom well dressed: but
this one, by dint of much perseverance.
seemed to have thrived in his profes.
sion. His crutch and beggar's sign hard
ly distinguished his calling, because the
usual accompaniment of sad rags was
missing. A tattered newshoy, with a
lordly strut, came strolling by. He had
just sold out his papers and was taking
things easy. He slowed up, assumed a
position of rest, and changed his cigar
cite to the corner of his mouth with the
precise angle of elevation: then he squint-
ed ut the beggar. He was hardly more
than 10 or II years old.
Struck it tough, hev ye?" said the
boy to the beggar, in charitable sort
of way.
The beggar did not answer. 1t was
useless TO ask the boy for anything. II
would be like drawing blood out of q
turnip.
"Aw. take this an gimme back three
cents" said the newsboy. suddenly seized
with n stroke of benevolence
The beggar was taken by surprise
and as he held out a trembling hand for
the five-cenr piece mis- eye faltered "Aw
keep Their change; keep Their whole jill"
the newSboy said wi h a sigh. Civ il
ter the kids at home" ne added: Il know
whit it is ter hev er family herself"
He was only a boy of 10, and he
squared his shoulders as he walked
thoughtfully down the street.-Atlanta
