TAKING LONG CHANCES.

There is certainly providence that
protects children, or there would be
more fatalities among them from the
long chances they take. This paper
has been informed that it is practice
of children to walk across the new
concrete bridge on the parapet, which
is only few inches wide, when a 20.
foot roadway Is at their disposal A
slip. a mistep, sudden gust OF wind
or dozen other contingencies nigh,
arise to precipitate the youngster in
to the stream below, when it would
be good night to the kid and pOig-
nent sorrow and distress to the fam
lily. Parents might stand in with prov
idence in protecting their offstprings
with little moral persuasion or i
judicial use of the birch. Better lit
tie castigation to regulate matters al
this kind than coffin

one and all report that the prospects
for a heavy grain crop were never
more encouraging at this season Of

BILE that any adverse climatic condi-

the farmers this year, although one
never can tell, for there have been
other seasons with bright prospects
for an abundant harvest early in the
spring, when something would turn up
to blast all hopes. However, after four
years Of failure it Is about time luck
was switching the other way.

Mr.. and Mrs. F. A. Block and their
daughter surprised their friends by
rolling in from San Diego by auto
Tuesday. Mr.. Block formerly was
engaged in business in Oroville ana
owned and still owns considerable
property in this locality. Some two
years ago he moved to San Diego
where he engaged in the grocery bus
mess. Recently he sold out his busi-
ness and returned north to look after
his property interests here. He says
he is now considering locating in
Portland, but it is just possible that
he will decide to return to his first
love, the first love contracted In the
northwest, and again cast his lot with
Oroville. He could go much farther
and fare worse.

DENUDED TURKEY "CAME TO"
chIoroformed Bird, Minus Feathers,
Very Much Alive When the An.
esthetlc Had Worn Off.

One of New Jerseys most con-
servative towns Is consumed with
mirth, and the objects of said mirth
are a young, kind-hearted bride and
bridegroom. The bridegroom, 1t APP
pears, took a chance on turkey that
was being ratified off in his New York
office and few days later was notified
that he had won the pompous bird.
Highly delighted, he gave his address
and ordered the prize sent out to his
New Jersey home.
In the course Of time the bird ar
rived at its destination, and arrived,
much to the surprise Of the bride and
bridegroom In wire crate very much
alive, remarks the New York Sun. AS
their experience in executing birds was
nil and the bride couldn't bear to
have It's pretty head chopped off,"
they decided to chloroform it. Con-
sequently, the next night, when the
bridegroom got home from the office,
the anesthetic was administered on a
lovely lace handkerchief and then the
bird was plucked and put into the
ice box. About 8 o'clock that night
the peace and quiet around the library
lamp were disturbed by strange noises
in the kitchen.
Hand In hand the newlyweds bravely
descended upon the kitchen expecting
to find the .ever-looked-for burglar
But no burglar was to be seen. Lo-
eating the noise In the direction of the
Ice box the brave young bridegroom
swung open the doors and out stepped
a very naked turkey. After a few
rounds of the kitchen with consider
able Tapping Of wings he began pick
ing up the crumbs on the floor. The
bride and bridegroom looked at each |
other In horror and fled from the |
kitchen. An hour Or SO later the |
services Of a neighbor were called |
upon and this time the turkey was an
with an AK.
