Tale Of a Coat.

The clawhammer, or evening coat,
has many oddities Of cut. These oddi-
ties were once essentials. There >was,
In fact, time when every idiosyn-
Grassy of the clawhammer served some
useful purpose. The cuta way front Of
the coat, for instance, was originally
cut away so that the wearer when on
horseback would not he incommoded.
The two buttons at the back were for
fastening up the tails, out of harms
way, each tail having In the past a
buttonhole at its end The sleeves,
with their false cuffs, are relics of the
days when sleeves were always turned
back and therefore we're always made
with cuffs that unbuttoned. The col,
lar, with its wide notches, is sur
vival Of the old collar that was notch
ed In order that it's wearer could turn
it up conveniently in cold or stormy
weather. The dress coat, in word, is
q patchwork Of relics-relics once es-
sential, but now Of no use on earth -

Bear Hunting.

Bear hunting, with the assistance Of
guides supplied with well trained
pack Of hounds, may be satisfactory if
merely the killing of them is desired,
but 1t certainly is no sport and de-
serves not even to be ranked with trap
ping bears, as in the latter case the
hunter must possess at least some
knowledge of the quarry's habitat and
habits. Unlike fox, a bear, when
once found by the hounds, stands no
chance whatever of escaping, and
there would be just as much sport in
shooting the animals in park or pen
as to kill run to bay bear. And,
while this truth applies to mountain
lions also, there is not even the ex-
cuse Of the animals destructiveness,
which is applicable as far as the lat
ter is concerned.-Field and Stream.

The Orange Tree.

The orange is the longest lived fruit
tree. It begins to bear the third year
after budding, and for 100 years it will
yield abundant crops. Orange trees
have been known to attain the ripe
age Of 300. The orange requires less
care and attention than any other fruit
tree. Its early growth is rapid. In the
first two years 1t grows more than it
will in the next fifty. This refers of
course to its height and breadth alone
Its fruit stems and consequently it's
crops Increase more rapidly after the
first ten years.

few survivors of the Mashpee Indians.
He had often been Mr.. Webster's
guide and companion on his fishing
trips and remembered clearly many of
their happenings. It was with glow
Of love and admiration amounting to
worship that he related how this great
fisherman, after landing a large trout
on the bank Of the stream, talked
mighty strong and fne to that fish and
told him what mistake he had made
and what fool he was to take that
fly and that he would have been all
right If he had left it alone.''

A Literary Tragedy.

When Carlyle had finished the first
volume Of his great work on the French
revolution he lent the manuscript to
his friend John Stuart Mill. One even
ing soon afterward Mill entered Car
lyle's door, pale as Hector's ghost, with
the dismal information, gasped out in
almost inarticulate words, that with
the exception Of about four or five
sheets the manuscript was completely
annihilated. Mill had left it too care
lessly lying about, and a servant, think
ing It so much waste paper, had burned
It. Five months Of steadfast, occasion
ally excessive and painful toll utterly
lost! For three weeks Carlyle could
do nothing but read Marryat's novels.
Then one night, sitting talking to his
cook, he decided it should be written
again and eventually finished "such a
task as I never tried before or since.''

On Tuesday, June 4, the Oregon
railroad commission will hold
meeting in this city for the purpose
of investigating the needs of To-
cal train between this city and
Portland. At that time the officials
of, the o. R. & N. and the citizens
who are interested in securing bet
ter train service for this city will be
given an opportunity to appear be-
fore the commission to discuss the
situation.
The Salem Statesman says of the
matter as presented to the railroad
commission in Salem:
The state railway commission will
Investigate the condition Of the local
train service on the o. r. & n. from
Biggs eastward.
The commissioners are of the opin-
ion that the train service Of the
P.ggs local Is entirely inadequate and
since they have informally investigat-
cd the conditions of the line they be-
lisve that the local travel eastward
from Biggs is of sufficient magnitude
to demand local trains from Biggs to
! Pendleton at least and perhaps to
| Huntington.
BY the inadequate system provid-
by the o. r. & n. on that branch OF
the railroad the heavy transconti-
mental trains have been heavily bur-
dened.
At present the travel from Riggs to
Heppner is handled by mixed train
and many delays are caused and slow
time is the result.

Is TO ask for the extension of the run

A large amount of business was
transacted by the council last night.
The petitions for the proposed
changes in the city charter were filed
with the recorder last evening and
presented last night. A meeting Of
the council will be held this evening
for the purpose of making arrange

business all night on July and
instead OF closing at O'Clock. This
privilege was granted.
The ordinance committee reported
favorably on the Washington street
improvement ordinance and the
council passed 1t unanimously. This
ordinance will give the city power to
compel those who have not made im-
provements on this street to do so.
The Raley street petitioners who
presented a petition Cor the improve
ment Of that street at the last meet
ing of the council failed to state the
nature Of the improvement they
wanted, and the street committee
reported the petition back TO the
council with the recommendation
that it be returned to the petitioners
With the request that they make defi-
mite what they want done.
The number of saloon licenses un-
der the 5000 rate was raised to 27
