FAMILY OF TEACHERS.
Colonel Baker of Turner, Furnishes
Half a Dozen for Public Schools.

Colonel Baker, who runs the Baker
house at Turner, has raised a family
OF school teachers. says the Salem
Journal. Like the sailor who had the
wooden leg, teaching seems to run in
the family. The sailor said he had
one, and his father had one and his
grandfather. So Mr.. and Mrs. Baker
have given the world a quartet of
educators. They have made sacrifices
to prepare their children to do good
work in the public schools, and all of
them have received training at the
Normal schools.
a. Ray Baker is principal at Hub
bard. A. c. Baker is principal at
Aumsville. Annie f. Baker is teach
ing the Munkers school, and Barbara
Baker is teaching a country school
near Charlottesville. The two oldest
sons are graduates at Sodaville Nor
NAL school and hold life certificates
one of the daughters is a graduate of
the Krapps Normal school, and the
other is graduate of the Normal de-
partment of McMinnville college.

SAVES 20 PER CENT OF FEED.
Julius Guartlarian Finds Chopped Hay
Profitable Experiment.

julius Gurdarian, the well known
stockman of Birch creek, is in the city
today on a business trip. Mr.. Cur
darian has just finished chopping 500
tons of alfalfa and barley hay which
he is feeding to his cattle this winter,
and is highly pleased with the exper-
iment.
He estimates that he saves at least
90 per cent by chopping the hay for
his stock and since he is feeding 300
head this saving amounts to considera-
BILE in the course of the winter.
He purchased a 50-ton capacity
chopper in this city some time ago,
and has been busy for the past two
weeks, cutting about 45 to so tons per
day, working but eight hours per day.
He says the cattle gain faster on
the chopped hay than on the hay fed
in natural state, since they do not
fight nor crowd each other in the eff
fort to reach the highest and freshest
bunch thrown out to them.
Hereafter he will cut his feed every
season and believes it profitable way
to handle cattle. He is feeding
straight alfalfa and his steers now
weigh about 400 pounds each. He
Will perhaps sell them within the next
few weeks If the market is satisfac-
tory.

A NEW JERSEY SHIP CANAL.
VIII Add Over Seven Miles to New
York's Water Front.

New York, Jan. 0.-Preliminary
measures have been taken for the cut
ting of a ship canal through the pc
ninsula of New Jersey, lying between
the Hackensack and the Hudson rivers
which, when completed, will add near
ly seven miles and half to the harbor
frontage of New York, form an almost
direct water connection between this
city and Newark, relieve existing con-
gestion, which has compelled several
steamship lines to seek facilities else
where, and prove of immense advan-
tage to commercial interests.
Representative w. II. Wiley, of Or
ange, N. j., has introduced a concur
rent resolution in congress providing
for survey of ship canal from
Newark to New York bay, and he has
the support not only of his constitu-
entS, but also OF the great railroad
and shipping interests which would
be directly affected. Preparations are
also under way to have the New Jer-
sey legislature authorize the purchase
or condemnation of the land needed
for the project and 1t is believed that
work will be begun early in the spring.
The canal would extend from Jer-
sey City to Bayonne, 1t would be
about one mile long, 200 feet wide and
deep enough for the largest freight
ships. Its terminals probably will be
used for dock purposes and it is esti-
mated that the entire cost of the en-
gineering work would be no more than
$S50,00O, which would make it the
cheapest ship canal on record. With
the state of New Jersey and private
capital both interested in it, it is
thought that there will be little diff
ficulty in acquiring the necessary land,
as nearly all the rights of way involv-
ed have long since lapsed.

improvements to Presbyterian Church
Building VIII Require Three Entire
Months.
Work on the improvements to the
Presbyterian church building will be-
gin next Monday morning. Last eve
ming at a meeting of the board of
trustees, It was decided to begin the
work at once, as 1t will require about
three months to complete 1t. The
plans of C. e. Troutman, architect
were accepted by the trustees and Mr..
Troutman will have charge Of the
work.
The improvements will include a
basement 26x32, for heating plant
and fuel room, two transepts, one on
each side of the main building, 10x34
feet in size, an extension Of the north
end of the building to the sidewalk, a
remodeling Of the spire and new seats,
carpets, roof, paint, wall paper and
pulpit fixtures will cost nearly $4,000
when completed.
After next Sunday the morning
services and Sunday school will be
held in the chapel Of the Pendleton
academy, the evening services to be
held in a hall in the city, perhaps Ar
mory hall
At the meeting of the trustees last
evening Clarence Penland was elected
treasurer of the building committee,
and to him all contributions and sub
scriptions on the building fund are
payable.

TRIAL OF sLoCUSrs CAPTAIN.
Trying to Fix Responsibility for Great
Disaster.

New York, Jan. 1O.-The trial of
Captain William Van Schaick, former
commander of the excursion steamer
General Slocum, the Inflated boat,
which burned in the East River on
June Is, 1904, while it had large
Sunday school excursion on board, of
which over 1000, mostly women and
children, lost their lives, began today
before Judge Thomas, in the federal
circuit court. Captain Van Schaick is
charged with negligence in the per-
formance of his duties as commander
of the Slocum and it is understood
that General Henry L. Burnett, the
United States district attorney who
represents the state, or rather the
United States government, will make
determined effort to obtain a con-
viction.
The case is still fresh in the men,
ory of the people, although a year and
! A half has elapsed since the terrible
disaster. in thousands Of homes the
loss of dear relatives and friends, who
lost their lives in the Slocum disaster,
is deeply mourned and the strong feel
ing against Captain Van Schaick, who
is, to a great extent, held responsible
for the terrible loss Of lives, has not
decreased much since then.
Public opinion demands that severe
punishment be meted out to those who
were responsible for the disaster and
up to the present time comparatively
little has been done to satisfy this de-
mand.
Steamboat Inspector Lundberg, to
whose lax methods it was due that
rotten and worthless life preservers
were allowed on the General Slocum,
which, instead Of saving lives, caused
the death of many people on that ILL
fated steamer who depended upon
these life preservers for their safety,
has been tried three times on the
charge of criminal negligence in issu-
ing a certificate to the General Slo-
cum, but in each time the jury dis
agreed. Indictments in connection
with the disaster are still pending
against Frank H. Barnaby, president
of the Knickerhocker Steamboat COM
pany and the directors of that concern.

CHAMBERS PREVALENT.
Eureka Flat Horses Found to Be Af-
flicted.


Assistant State Deputy Veterinary
]. w. Woods has returned from
professional trip to Eureka Flat,
where he was called to examine
horses having symptoms of glanders,
says the Walla Walla Union.
In a herd of ~ given the Mallein
test, seven gave the reactionary, prov
ing that the unfortunates were afflict-
ed with the dread disease for which
science has discovered no cure. The
state law requires that all animals
afflicted with glanders shall be killed.
Drastic as this measure seems it is
considered the only method Of
stamping out the plague. which is so
destructive to the horse in other parts
of the northwest.
DR.. Woods will make a second trip
soon to test the rest of the band of
65, which is now isolated till the test
can be made.
In testing cows for tuberculosis the
doctor yesterday stated that out of
14S cows 19 were afflicted with tuber-
culosis, and the last ones tested were
killed yesterday.

REGISTRATION is SLOW.
Must Register Before Can Legally
Sign Nominating Petitions.

So far the registration for the COM
ing primaries and election has been
decidedly slow, but few over 100
voters having enrolled thus far.
In view of the slow registration
there will doubtless be trouble when
the various candidates for office be-
gin the circulation of their petitions
Under the law no one can sign nom-
mating petition excepting a registered
voter OF the same party faith. Also,
it is held that II will not suffice for
one to sign a petition first and regis
ter afterwards, as the law provides
that the voter shall register before
signing any petition.
