CONCERNING
COMMITMENT
OF THE INSANE

Because the county courts are
loading down the state hospital for
insane with patients who do not prop
erly belong to the institution, Super
intendent Steiner has decided to issue
notice lnstructing them on the sub
ject, and he will make 1t public
through the papers and otherwise to-
morrow.
The policy so far pursued by most
of the county courts seems to have
been to commit to the asylum all per-
sons against whom warrants for in
sanity have been sworn out, If there
is the slightest evidence to show that
there exists a weak mentality II
seems that in many instances the
mental disorder is not sufficient II
warranting them to be committed
and that in other cases it is of suci
character that they should be as
signed to such institutions as tha

TO PROTECT
THE RAILROAD
CROSSINGS
RAILROAD COMMISSION ORDERS
S. p AND o. f. TO INSTALL IN
TERLOCKING CROSSINGS AT
BEAVERTON AND GREENS
BURG.

The Oregon Railroad Commission
yesterday afternoon entered an order
directing the Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company and the Oregon Elec-
trio to install positive interlocking
crossings at Beaverton and Green
burg, and in doing so Commissioner
Miller took occasion to briefly say
that he had investigated the crossings
and that he considered them unsafe,
and also to define the policy of the
commission in dealing with the same
subject in the future.
Policy Defined. "a
81 want to say" said Commission
er Miller, in discussing the subject,
and touching upon the future policy
of the commission with regard to it,
chat l am absolutely opposed to
any right Of way of one train over an
other crossing without an interlock-
ing device, and it seems to me thai
these trains ought to be brought tc
stop at these crossings. l consider
them quite dangerous, and l consider
that the safe operation of these
crossings would require that nj
trains be given a right of way, amt
that all trains should be brought to
full stop"
Must Get Consent.
Under the law the commission ha
the right to supervise the construc
tion of crossings. and it intends, II
the future, to see to 1t that the rail
road companies comply with it. In
few cases the companies have in
stalled them before giving the com
mission the. privilege of making a
inspection of them, and securing 1t
views and consent. Hereafter, shoul
company follow this policy, tn
, commission will insist upon it teal
} ing it up, should it not comply wit
its rules and regulations, and hav
. them construet another, no matte
. what the cost. may be to the con
e pany.

MAKE FOR CONTRAST
ONE REASON WHY GAUZES RE.
 MAIN POPULAR.
Combined With Silks or Satins They Give the Effect Just Now So Much Desired-Ncvelties
 Anong-N New Materials.

Transparent materials are just as prominent among the new fabrics as they have been for several seasons past. And from all advices to this hour, it seems that veilings are to be l in quite as strong favor for fall and winter as they were for spring and | summer. So long as the overskirt remains-and it is even more popular now than 1t was three months ago fabrics of contrasting material will continue to appear in the wardrobe. And what is so effective in contrasts as silks or satins with gauzy weaves?
 One of the fancies for the next sea- son will undoubtedly be the yelling of brocades with chiffons, mousseline and thin marquisettes. Some of the new brocades provided for this use are passing lovely. Many of them are shot abundantly with gold in actual metal or colored silk, and the gleam of this metallic effect will greatly en- nance the richness of handsome gowns. Some chiffons are shot with tinsels or are embroidered with it. Embroidered effects among the trans parent materials are abundant.
 For simpler gowns, the chiffons and their kind will continue to be used over stripes and checks and over changeable silks.
 There are good many novelties among the new materials. One of them is velvet of tweed effect in the tWo-toned shot appearance of the sturdy wool. The result is not happy; but 1t is fashionable, which is the next thing. Changeable effects appear, not only among the new silks, but abundantly among the wools, even in the heavy suitings And many of the two-toned wools which are mixed on one side and are plain on the other are shot or iecked with bright colors Some of these color schemes are very effective. Dark tones with touches of bright color seem to be very much liked by the tailors, who are buying up pieces in which they predominate as fast as they come in The double faced satins are here once more and PA AOAASO CO AdhS IuS uduuSOmeSl COdtS and capes for the fall with the under color cropping out in trimmings and the hoods which are so prevalent. Even the sweater has taken to itself hood. the hood usually being of the accessory color. One such sweater was white. with a band of tan color down the front and around the neck, and the hood was of the tan. Big hoods are evidently coming in again for cold weather wraps.

BAG KEEPS SILVER BRIGHT
Articles That Are Easily Discolored or Scratched Should Be
 Thus Protected.

The housewife who delights to keep the silver teapot, sugar basin and milk jug in a bright and spotless condition. will find bag of the kind shown in our sketch a great help. It is made of green baize and lined with soft wash-leather and drawn up at the neck on tape. It should be made am- ply large enough for the article it is to contain, and that for the teapot should be of the shape shown in the small sketch on the left hand side when empty.
 Bags of this nature not only help to keep silver articles bright. but are also a great protection from possible scratches and dents. Initials would look we'll on the dark green baize, worked in silk of an old gold color.
 Bags made of wash-leather only will answer their purpose perfectly well, but with a covering of baize they will last much longer, and are a greater protection to silver articles

Senator's Problem in Natural Science Propounded to Savant Who Was Boring a Brilliant Company
 at Dinner.

Y have been told many very inter, esting anecdotes about William NJ Eyarts. but I do not know any which illustrates the keen wit and the humor which were so prominent among the many characteristics of Mr. Evarts that compares with an incident which came under my own observation" said Gen. Charles s. Fairchild, who was sec retary of the treasury in the latter half of President Cleveland's first ad- ministration.
 q was a guest at a dinner which was given in 1888. when MT. Evarts was still in the senate, by very prom inent public official at Washington. It was. in the character of the men who were gathered around the table, per haps as brilliant a dinner as any in which l participated while I was a member of Mr. Cleveland's admins tration. Senator Evarts was one of the most distinguished of the guests pres ent; and, as usual at a dinner which MT. Evarts graced with his presence, the best of good fellowship and a true feast of reason, and humor, and wit were the experiences of the guests.
 There happened to be at this din her a man of great achievement as scientist He was, however, good deal of a dry-as-dust, and he seemed to be disposed to inject science into the conversation, or to apply his own particular knowledge to every state ment which was made. After awhile the persistence of this scientific gen tieman palled little upon the guests, although he himself seemed to be un- aware of that fact. Not even the host, notwithstanding his perfect courtesy, was able fully to conceal his annoy ance at these learned and scientific interpolations.
 At last Senator Evarts, who. had been, apparently, a patient and earn est listener, addressed the man of sci ence. saying:
 1 have been much interested, pro lessor, in what you have said; and it has occurred to me that possibly you may be able to explain a curious law of nature, which I, myself, have never been able to explain or to find any one who could explain
