John Williams, Alfred McCausla.nl and Frank McCuuslund Waltbh Moss Takkm in Walter Muss, an old Clackamas countv boy and manager of the Calhoun Opora Co recently told a Seattle Ntwt reporter how lie got tuken In while In Ht. I.oiii not long ago. ile was In a crowd watch log a fire when a pretty women rushed down the stairway of the burning tjulld log, and. apparently crazed by excite' mem, threw herself into his arms anil implored him to save her. Of course Mos attempted to soothe hnr, and th rest is bust told in his own words: "Hlie soon caught sight of some one she said she knew ami with proline aniloI.K for disuniting me was soon lost in the crowd. Shortly alter her departuro bootblack at my elbow exclaimed 'Yer watch chain's broke mister,' Then began to take stock. My watch and diamond sparkler were gone, likewise a small roll of bills from my vest pocket, I tried at once to find the maid all for lorn, who had left my fortune so tattered and torn, but the earth seemed to have opened and swallowed her." ol 6 A Fouu-Ckst Tax. The taxpayers of Oregon City will have to pay tax of 38 mills on the assesement of 1894. The levies are as follows State tax 3 mill Road 4 " County school 5 8 " County 114 " City " School District No (12 9 " Total 38 milli Last year's levy was: State 4.0 mills, 1.0 more than this; road mills, half as much: county schoo millb, .0 mill less; county 9.7 mills. .7 mill less; city 0, same; district school 0 mills, 3 mills loss than this voir; a total of 32 3 mills; or 3 8 mills less than this year (18;) I). Tin 4-mill road tax i a giol thing for farmers, but does not bmierit the city taxpayers directly, as hardly any of tha road money is spent inside the cily limits. Of coursu our school slnuld ba kept up even if we are required to pay a 14.0 mill school tax, but where his that $430,000 worth of taxable proparty of this school district gone? Just think, property, in district hut yir aeiaa I at 1,2X),C00, and this year $770,000. The assessor as Med real prop trty for 1891 at about 10 or 13 per cent, less than the year before and the state board re duced it 10 per cent, more, thereby making about 25 pur cent, reduction, or $300,000. The other $130,000 cannot bft accounted for unless there is a clerical mistake somewhere. Thk Difference. On last Saturday at 3 o'clock as the delayed overland arrived, Representative G. O. Rinearson was met at the depot by a large crowd, who congratulated him on bis stand at Salem. Thirty minutes later Senator Browoell stepped off the local train and there wasn't a soul to meet or congratu late him. Why's this? Mr. Rinear son represented his constitutents at Salem and Mr. Brownell did not. In the evening a rousing meeting was held at the Armory at which Mr Rinearson Bpoke, amid cheeis and applause of his listeners. The Park Place band arrived as Win. Partlow was addressing the meeting, exposing some of the tactics of the Dolph men, after which the band played several tunes in honor of Mr. Rinearson, who lives in the same pre cinct. In his apeech Mr. Rinearson referred to a petition with 40 names re ceived by a Dolphite from this county commending the Dolphite's actions, while he received a petition containing 300 names commending his Bction. Fell Off the Thbstlb. On Wednes day evening ab nit 10 o'clock three men were walking on the electric trestle b) low town when they met a car. Two stepped to one side and held on, but one! Henry Hesse, who was under the In fluence of liquor fell oft". The other t wo secured help and be was brought to Kidd & Williams livery stable and Dr. Somer called. He died there at abiut 3 o'clock in the morning from his In urirs. Both of IiIb arms were broken but the cause of death was internal hemorrhage. A post-mortem exam! nation was made. A jury was called by Coroner Holman on Tliurs day morning which brought in verdict of accidental death. lie was a Frenchman and could not speak English so nothing c mid be learned from him before he died. Dynamite fob Caiip. Sportsmen are contemplating a war of extermination against the carp, so thoughtfully ftirnbhcd this section by a wise and benign flth commissioner. To attempt the extermination of these fidh and other piscatorial nuisance, the catfish in the Coluinlva and Willamette, would be a hopeless tank about as difficult of accomplishment as bailing the rivers dry. Parties who have lakes preserved for duck hunting, which are being ruined by carp that eat up everything the ducks feed on from widgeon weed to wapatoes think they can get even by the use of dynamite, and next fall will use enough of this explosive to literally blow out the bittom of the lakes.
