Fencing for Exercise.

The enormous value of continual
practice with the foils ~ . means Of
securing and preserving good health
Is. In my humble opinion. the main
reason for the steady hold Of fencing
upon public favor in France and Italy.
It Is only Of late years that the atten-
ton bestowed by medical men upon
physical exercise-in France. at least.
where DR.. Lagrange's treatises have
become classical-has given promi.
nence to the worth Of fencing as .
health factor. Every one knows-or
rather every one should know-that
fencing presses into service every
muscle Of the human frame: that It
creates and develops suppleness and
quickness: that, practised in youth, It
imparts freedom and grace Of mo-
tion absolutely unattainable by other
means: that II Is not q violent exer.
else. in SO far as injury by strain Is
involved: and. finally, that Its perils
are comparatively few. At very re-
mote intervals one hears Of q fatal
injury resulting. almost invariably
from . cheap or damaged mask. or
from the fooihardy practice Of exercis'
ing without the usual head or chest
covering, or with an ill-buttoned foil.
The proportion Of mishaps to the
number Of fencers. however. is infinit.

Shocking Accident.

William Clark, ofSummit, met
with a shocking accident Satur-
day morning and as a result is
minus two fingers on the right
hand.
Mr.. Clark was working with a
thresher some distance from home,
when he received a telephone call
froru three to the effect that one
of his horses had become mired
in a mud hole in the pasture.
Mr.. Clark hurried home, and see
ing that the case was a desperate
one, he fastened a rope to the
mired horse and arranged pull
ley and ropes so that team could
pull out the suffering animal.
In the hurry and excitement of
the moment, however, Mr.. Clark
allowed his hand to slip between
the rope and pulley, breaking
and tearing the ring finger of the
right hand almost of, and horri-
bly, crushing the little finger.
The injured man came to Cor
wallis where a localephysician
amputated the mangled fingers
and dressed the ugly wound.
The accident is one of those de-
plorable affairs of every day life
from which there seems no escape,
as they are constantly happening,
in spite of all care and watchful-
ness

How They Passed Over.

The following tribute to the
memory of those that pass to the
beyond through their fool acts is
being passed around the press:
"Take walk through any of
the cemeteries throughout the
country and you will believe
with us that fools are slowly but
surely passing away, says an ex-
change. With silent tread you
pass the last resting place of the
Individual who blew into an
empty gun. The modest tomb
stone of the girl who lighted the
fire with kerosene and the grass
covered mound that covers the
mortal remains of the boy who
took the mule by the tail is near
by. The tall monument is for
the man who jumped of the
cars to save ten rods walk.
Side by side lie the remains of
the intellectual idiot that rode 9
miles inr 10 minutes and the
ethereal o creature who always

Buried Donkey Engine.

Fred Hill is we'll known in
Corvallis. having graduated from
OAC in the class of 'oS. His
home is near Springfield, Lane
comfy, and his father, Jasper
Hill, logs on the Windbury, a
tributary to Fall Creek.
Last week a fire broke out in
that section and swept onward at
a fierce rate. 1t consumed lot
of logs that meant money to Mr..
Hill. aud. it finally became ap-
parent that the donkey engine
and the rest OF the logging para
phernalia would be destroyed.
There was no place to get out
with the machine, and the owner
decided to bury it. All hands
fell to work and the donkey en-
gine was soon underground, and
the fire later swept On, doing no
harm to the outfit.
All of which tends to prove
that necessity is the mother OF
invention"

who took a dose of his own medi-
cine, and the old fool who mar
ried a young wife. Over yonder
in the northwest corner where
the gentle breezes sigh over the
weeping willow lies the fellow
who told his mother-in-law she
lied. Near by his grave, reposes
the mouldering dust of the editor
who starved to death trying to
run a hrst-class paper in second
class town. Further on lies the
boy who went swimming too
early in the season, and the lady
who kept strychnine and baking
powder side by side in the cup
board. And that unmarked,
weed-grown grave in the dark,
damp, dismal corner, by itself, is
the dreary resting place of the
deadest of them all-the man
who didn't advertise.

Cracked Safe,

Keep an eye on your safe, for
according to the West Side
Enterprise you have need to.
The following is related of a
Monmouth safe cracking cpl
sode: -. e.a...-r
The store of S. M. Daniels at
Monmouth was entered Monday
night and a small amount of
cash and some papers were
stolen. The burglar was a
safe-cracker but was victim of
loves labor lost ii this case. He
drilled hole in the safe. aud was
ready to apply the explosives
when the door was discovered to
be unlocked. It is Mr. Daniels
custom to close his safe door and
turn the bolt, which serves as
protection in case of fire, but he
does not lock. Being next door
to the bank it: is not necessary
to keep money in the safe though
On this occasion Mrs. Daniels had
deposited box containing $40
aud some jewelry. This the
burglar got and also some pa
pers Of Mr.. Daniels.
Entrance was made through
the rear of the store and in leav-
ing the burglar passed in the rear
of the bank and blacksmith shop.
At the latter place he left little
wooden till taken from the safe.
The iron till, also taken, has not
been found. His WORK done,
the burglar came direct to In
dependence. Mr.. Daniels track
ed him in the dust Tuesday
morning as far as the Butler
place. About q o'clock the same
morning a man was seen passing
Hastings coming into town from
the direction of Monmouth.
Shortly after that time the dogs
of W. w. Perciva's residence
flew. out as if disturbed by a
passerbv.

MET FOR BUSINESS.
Want Hose Cart and Hose, to
Protect Their-HOuSeS.

Another enthusiastic meeting
of Jobs addition citizens was held
at R. L. Taylor's store Friday
evening, to further discuss plans
tor securing the location of a hose
cart IN the western part of town.
1t is not right, argue these resi-
dents, that the central part OF
town should be the favored section
and that it should be fully pro-
tected from fire while other parts
of town are left to the mercy OF
any blaze that might be started.
A mans home in Jobs addition
is entitled to just the same con-
sideration that is shown for an
other mans home in the center
of town or any place else, and
when any favoritism is shown to
certain localities, it is no more
than justice that a halt should be
called. Such is the trend of the
discussion that is going on, and
citizens in the western part of
town are becoming intensely in
terested in the outcome. They
realize that in that section they
are utterly helpless, as no hose
cart could be dragged from the
city hall to that part of town in
winter time, until a building
would be gutted by the flames,
and realizing this, they are max
ing every effort to have a hose
cart located somewhere in the
addition, to insure protection.
At the meeting Friday night,
George Denman presided and
Lincoln Chambers was elected
secretary. A committee was ap-
pointed to draft new bylaws for
the proposed volunteer fire com
pany. The committee consists
of A. Kyle, TT. Vincent and
Charles Heckart.
Another committee consisting
of Henry Cummings, T. T. Vim
cent and w. r. Hansell was ap-
pointed to be present at the next
meeting of the council to present
the matter in regard to the hose
cart for the addition. -y.s
Whether an independent, VOL
unteer fire company can be or
ganized, or whether those wish
ing to serve will be obliged to
join the old fire company, is not
yet known to the supporters of
the new project. A number of
residents of the western part of
town have signed up as members
of the proposed volunteer comp
any in case such an organization
is perfected. The signers are:
Lincoln Chambers, 7. T. Vim
cent, Henry Cummings, Clifford
Kerr. Ed FELTON,, Charles Heck
art, Roy Price, c. Hotcnkiss, J.
w. Handy, w. R. Hansell, Nor
ton Adams, A. Kyle, George
Denman, Newton Adams, George
Fuller, George Mo ,re and H.
Bulls.
Many others not in attendance
at Friday nights meeting, have
signi6ed their desire to join the
company. Another meeting is
called for Friday night, when re-
ports of the committees will be
heard.

PROMISE cF MUCH.
New Postoffice to be First in the
Northwest.

The completion of the A. j
johnson two-story hrick will be
the signal for many business
changes. A fine barbershop and
bathrooms will occupy a part OF
the basement while the remain.
der will be utilized as a general
storage room. The bank will
occupy a suit Of Offices on the
first floor in the southwest cor
ner of the building, while some
very fine office rooms are plan
ned for the second floor. se@-
Perhaps the greatest change
planned will be the removal of
the postofice. Mr. Johnson has
been officially notified that the
government has awarded him
the contract to provide quarters
for the local Office. If quarters
are established in the new brick
they will be on the east side of
the building, on the first floor.
By this arrangement there will
be an abundance of light and
the alley will provide a means
for getting the mail into the rear
of the Office, thus avoiding the
necessity Of taking it through
the lobby.
Special Postal Representative
Hall, for the Pacific coast, was
here recently and looked into af-
fairs very thoroughly. The
plans and proposed equipment
met with his hearty approval.
The new postofice when fitted
up will beyond doubt be the
finest in any city of its class in
the entire Northwest. All fix
lures will be placed on lines Of /
elegance and durability, and with
special attention to convenience.
There will be five windows for
the convenience Of the public. |
In fact, the office will be fitted
with a view to carrier service,
which Postmaster Johnson
thinks we will be entitled to in
the course of three or four years
if our postal receipts continue to
increase in the future, as they
have in the past. e.>s.-
There is a possibility that Mr..
Johnson will erect a separate
building for the postofice, just
across the alley back of the big
brick. Should he do this it will
be one-story brick, 30x80 feet.
In this postoffice matter A. J.
johnson is doing much for the
town, as the terms granted by
the government do not warrant
such an outlay of cash, so there
is considerable philanthropy on
our townsman's end of the con-
tract.
