The Uftfftl num ber of young men from tlie eil v ntul conn try Monday thought they could beat the fraud and cut throat hanging around, the circus at their own games and hence got gloriously taken in. The Walla Walla paper that said there were no cut throats with the ckcus simply lied. There were, if anvthlne, more than usual, which in eluded several snide side sho vs. The me nagerie and performance are good, prob. ably the hest ever in Albanv, and it Is 0W tainly tube regretted that they allow such a lot of grasping leeches around them ; but the fact that they all travel on the same vuvt.il train vlmw that the w hole thing i practically under one management. After all these Vide swindling affair attract as much attention as anything and often t a longer remembrance In one's mind. Many men wouldn't think they hail been to a circus if they didn't have lhce fellow to patronize. Tmk Mr. H"ii t ' H.vE -Most of tiio ad wnturesom.' yuug folks hero ure atllutod with a mania to reach the summit of Mt.Houd, whi-h heretofore had been regard d a a pri htua undertaking.

Mr. Henry Oooner, now iu Albany, who mad tht- aaoont t the top, aaya it i not a perilous one, but i a tiresome undertaking. On is i' n.Hi.l.TiMy r . tiled when tho highest point is reached. Tw k i v ( i -Saturday was the -Mst birthday of Mr. Burr Moan, one of Al bany's best firemen, a member of the cele bratcd hoe team th it to.ik Portland and Seattle by storm, and tlie hot hot in Linn County. Saturday evening a large number of Burr'a friend, including the hose team and other firemen, tendered 1dm a surprise at the resi Jence of his parents In the First ward, which was one of the most enjoyable affairs of the season. A fine lunch was spread and a good time hid generally. A Democrat man was there at least in spirit, though he was unable to Ik? present in body. The word of manv present Is an as surance of the success of the affair. Well LiNEi.Vhcn Mrs. Henry Mil ler, of Turncr.was married about four years ao, she wore a dresa made for the occas ion by Mr. Stewart, who at that time had a dressmaking establishment in this city. A few days ago she commenced taking the d o to i;.ei -. t reiiud--'. it. after the fashion of womankind, and while she was thu- engaged she found a piece of paper which had bcn sewed into the lining. She ripped the seam around the paper very carefully and found it to be a five dol.ar greenback, which must have worked its way in there, in some way or other when th; dress was being made. States man. Ihk SrxuAY Law. The five breakers of the Sunday law, who were arrested on Monday, plead guilty In Jutice Tutlle's court Saturday, and were each fined $5 and cost. The court took occasion to re mark on passing judgment that a the custom of keeping store open on Sunday was general, and thce case were the fir at, he would impo.? the smallest fine, but upon the second offense he would give them the limit. iVezvs. Married.

Customers in the country should take notice and act accordingly. A Catalogue. President Condit of the College, has just handed us a catalogue for 1888-9. It Is nicely gotten up and show the present plans of the school In plainer language than we can state them. We have heretofore given the faculty .in full. A commendable feature of future work U the complete classification of the studies to be pursued, so that student will know just how they stand in (he Collegiate de partment, from which It will take the cus tomary four years to graduate, the years being divided into Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior. The arrangement ia one that w ill he very satisfactory to students. Under it they will pas from the Interme diate department to the Freshman year upon passing the necessary commence ment examination. I'pon completion of cither of the three courses, Classical, Latin Scientific or German Scientific, the deurec of H. S. will be conferred. To students who arc unable to enter cither of these courses a course in English may be pursued, cer tificates of graduation being granted, and three years is neceasarv to complete the course. I he preparatorv department is In splendid hands. The ju ice of tuition ranges irwin $5.5010 !.. o per term. The cata logue shows the number of irr.idu.ite from the Lolle-e to be thirtv-onc. The number of students enrolled I ninct v -three. There win or uiree in me senior class uic com ing year, to wit : Missr Helen A Craw foul. Flora A Mason and Iua L Robertson. The t.'ollege will thus be seen to be in a good condition, it is under aplcndid man agement and i displaying a progress in keeping with the irrowine. cltv in which It d. His Opinion. -The OrfomMt today publishes Judge Deadv's opinion in full in the now celebrated Foster case. It covers over four columns and Is an exhaustive opinion. The opinion i an interesting document to Albany people who have watched the case with great interest, and should be read in order to obtain an under standing of the matter. Perhaps the fol lowing from it explain most completely the reason for the Court's declaring the transfer of the Foster Bock fraudulent : After the mortgage tax law of 1882 went intocFect. in July, iSS.LMr.C. H. Stewart, the County Clerk of Linn county, in look ing over the record of mortuaizes for the purpose of making an abstract thereof forV Hie assessor, found a mortgage of manv 1 eats' standing from Foster to William Crawford on the mill property in uucation. given to secure the payment of a sum which then amounted, principal and interest, to about $25,000. He naturally auppoacd bom the circumstances that It had been satisfied.and at once wrote to Mr. William Crawford to cnll and make the proper crcd its or cancellation, or it would be returned to tlv assessor as in force. Mr. Crawford called immediately on Juiy 31 -and said the mortgage had been paid several years beforehand that he had no knowledge of it being on the books of record, and then and there canceled It. Y.vqt in a By Col. Parker, of Walla Walla, in writing home to hi paper aaya: This seaside resort is fast becoming the favorite among the people of the North west. There is more variety in scenery, resorts, etc , ;han any other watering place on the coast, and it has only to become better known to be crowded every season. As it la there are a great many visitors here and each and all declare it i superior to Clatsop or II waco. One thing I like is the utter absence of air and frill among the people here. As the Oregon Pacific 1 notv being pushed ahead to connect ulti mately w ith the Chicago Si Northwestern railroad it will not bo lory before the sun baked denizen- of Easter Oregon. Idaho, Montana and I'tah will make this their summer abiding place. C'Kow i.si;, Western Oregon papers gen erally have done a remarkable amount of crowing over our weather. Here Is one even from a Portland paper : " While por tion of the East arc being swept with hurt ful storm doing damage to the unharvest ed portion of the crop and while England for a month past has had continuous storms, so that their crop is in peril in con sequence, wc have every reason to be thankful to theclcrkof the weather for hi beneficence for aix weeks past, as our crop is being fast garnered and is alieady, at (east three-fourths aaved. We have had no Huch harvest weather previously for years." To the FRyxT. Mr. Chas. Metzger, agent for several railroad contractor in forms us that fifty Italians arrived in the city Tuesday afternoon from Spokane Fahs, and were, immediately taken to the front to work on the Oregon Pacific. By considerable rustling, Mr. Metzger secured fifteen circus men who also have gone to the front, preferring railroad wages and ten hours a day to thirty-six hour atretchea, with only six meals a week, which we un derstand is sometimes the program with the circus. There are now about 250 white men and 500 Chinamen at work on the ex tension. Sure Things. An old gentleman from the country was telling usTuesday how he juve a twenty dollar piece for some change Monday, and although he thought he counted thc money carefully, when he ooked it over arain he was six dollars hort. Funny. A vouny man from the country, recently married, watched one of the games at the circus until he knew just now it was done, and then vvnen he had a sure thing put up seventy dollars on It Then he found out it wasn t so very sure alter all. StXPFOSB. Suppose the Democrat was to put in some out of thc way corner a two or three line local to the effect that some particular merchant charged more for his goods than anyone eise he would be the maddest man in town, and yet perhaps one of thc very class who say it doesn't pav to advertise. Now the truth is, speaking ot Albanv, there is no better place to buy irroceriei than at Conn Bros. Their prices are low and their good iirst-clas. Ihose who do not heed this will be the ones to get mad. Tn.iNi: Factorv.

On Monday as the circus parade was passing by the Uemocart of fice, a smart "Aleck" of a young man, see ing one of the showmen driving a span of donkeys, began to imitate that animal by braying loudly.
