ajatT LOCAL H2CORD. Too Much for Wilson. When the Carter brothers returned to their house after they had overtaken Wilson in the road, John Carter sent hia brother Pearl to get the team ready while he went with Wilson to the house to get a drink of water. As soon as Wilson had taken a drink, ami wtr.ie carter's tace was turned, he darted away like a deer Carter's story is an interesting one: "Then I save chase and ran about 100 yards. He saw I was gaining on him and turned to fight. I went in, and we had it fist and skull for a while. 1 had him down once and tried to disable him by stamping his head. I was satisfied it was VV ilson by this time and did not care if I did hurt him. I was not armed. He got my little finger in his month in attempting to arise. I was trying to keep him down and at the same time he was drawing a razor. I thought I had better shake him off. This was not so easy. But with a desperate effort 1 freed my finger and avoided his razor. I then seized a club in retreating, and turned on him as he closed on me with an unlif ted razor. I struck him on the arm and he dropped the razor and ran again. The arm wa? broken between the wrist and elbow. Another chase of 200 yards and he turned for fight again. Then my brother came up with a shot gun and I took it and brought it down within three feet of his face, fully de termined to shoot- But in the moment ary parley my brother concluded he could handle him, so he clutched him and threw him. We then tied him securely, and he was taken to McMinn ville." A Bknton Co. SutctDt. The Gazette gives the following account of a very pe culiar suiside: Friday morning, about 9 3o, Mrs Alice Schmidt, living about wo miles north of town attempted to take her own life by shooting herself in the abdomen with a 32-calibre revolver. Mrs Schmidt is about 19 years of age. She was married nearly two years ago t Fred Schmidt, and they at once moved onto a small ranch belonging to Mrs Schmidt, where they have since lived. Since her marriage, she has been subject to fits of despondency and has several t'mes threat ened to take her life and had even made two or three unsuccessful attempt to do so. On this occasion she first tried to sever the arteries in her wrists wiih a butcher knife. Failing In this, she loot a revolver and placing the muzzle at her stomach fifd, the ball entering about 1 12 inches above the navel. Her condition as we go to press is very critical ; she may recover but there are many chances against her. Then, two, she was soon to become a mother which make; her con dition all the more serious, as there is a strong probability that the bullet which came so near U ing fatal to her own life put an end to the life of her unborn child, as the course taken by the ball would be just about right for such an effect. Aldridoe Fined. Editor Aldridge of the Prineville News, was in Judge Deady's court this morning to answer to the charge of sending obscene literature through the mails. The article in question was care fully read and thoroughly dissected by Judge Dead;. A part of the matter the'. Ral Instate Sales - court held to be not obscene, but the sec- w . , , ., ond count was obscene. It was language I M wlf "P?01 t0 ,E1,f beth not fit for use in any wav, or upon any ! v. f oh ff re " V V occasion.

Just at the foot. of the! grounds of the Ocean House, near the steps leading from Front street, has been erected a pretty tent. It is the place of business of Jack Young and here during j the season he will offer for sale confec- tiooR, nuts, temperance drinks, etc., etc. Benton Tracy and Mrs Hattie Winter, who had been visiting friends in Corvallis and Albany .returned Wednesday evening. Yesterday at 4 o'clock the men u the government quarries knocked off work for the day as uiual and a number of them went soon to tbe river to bathe. Among the number was Charles Holmes and - hen he plunged beneath the water a cramp must have seized him fur he appeared no more. Up till eight o'clock the body had not been recovered. He has lived on the bay for several years and worked in the quarries for nearly two years steadily. Newport Times. Need it Badly. Lane county U to have a jail. The Register says: Bids for furnishing material and constructing a ne county jail in accordance with the plans and specifications furnished were opened by the county court Saturday and further action on the matter postponed until this morning. The bids are as fol lows: W H Alexander, $5,995; Anderson at Smith, $5,077; L N Roney, $5,875; W T Campbell, $5,970. These bids are for the material aside from the steel ar.d iron work. Senarate bids are to be received for this part and the letting of the contract for that part has been postponed until the next regular terrr of the court. The Linn county board are exceedingly slow about assisting in the erection of a bridge at Mill City. A S 3,000 bridge will be adequate, if placed above or below the mill. It is hoped that the democratic ad ministration of Linn will combine forces and capital with the Marion county board for the purpose of building the most needed structure, without any further de lay. Mill Ciiy Gazette. Our Marion county exchange seems jo be very poorly posted about Linn county politics, though just across the line. The Linn county board instead of being demo cratic, Is republican two to one. Even t?ie Convictb are on to Wilson. The Statesman says: The state prison officials received Wilson with a protest. I hey aatd they had no authority to receive him ; the only authority they had was a permit from Govern jr Pennbyer. No effort will be made in any direction to take him out of the hands ol the iaw. Everything goes on as usual at the prison and there will be no mob violence. Ail the convicts in the prison know that Wil son is among them, and if they could get their hands on him they would make short work of the fellow. Thev w.mld I .nch him right iu prison. A Fatal Accident. As Bud Wallace, hit wife and four children, accompanied by Miss Lizzie Mack, were returning to Sale ui from Tillamook county a few days ago, the carriage ran off the grade and rolled about 100 feet down into the river. iss Mack had tbe little babe in her arms ana wnen sue saw tney were tail ing, threw the child inst in time for its father to catch it ana save its lile. M iss Mack went over the bank, struck her breast on a rock and bounded into the water. She died an honr later. Forty Chinamen arrived in Albany last nisht from Portland, coming to Salem on a boat and thence by care, to go to work on the Oregon Pacific, repair ing tbe road. One of them attracted considerable attention in Salem because he had whiskers, which he was allowed to wear because he was old, also four coats, a cap and a hat. In small Pacific Coaat villages such celestials always ex cite the people ; but in large cities like Albany and Portland they may always be seen, one at least having resided here for a long time, and there are several in Portland. Not the Man. On July 2, a team wi, stolen In Marysville.Calif., and afterwards sold. The thief was known to be a tailor who had been stopping there a short time under the name of Joe Carron. He came north, and a tailor answering his descript ion reached Albany Monday. He was ar rested under suspicion; but another de scription received showed that he was nut the man, and he was promptly discharged. Ihls tailor had worked a week or two in Ashland, on his way north. Another Fake. It la reported that two surveyors near Prineville while ir. camp last "week, say they heard two dis tinct reports as of heavy blat. No tremor of the earth was felt, however. Next morning on viewing the snowy crests of Hood and fefferson, each of the mountains was seen to be emitting smoke in profuse volumes. Crook Covstw C V Elklns, of Beaver, has been quite sick with pneumo nia for some time. T)r Belknap, who hs been waiting on him.states that he is now In a f.r wav of recovery. v D Davis has bought land in Jackson county and has moved there to resld?. He still owns his sheep in this county.and will return here each summer to look altei them. On the morning of the Fourth while firing anvils Albert Trichel was very se verely powder burned. The powder that war placed in the anvil exploded before Trichel had reached a ssfe distance from it, thus causing him to be badly burned about the face. Last Wednesday In Summit Prairie two sheep herders in the employ of Jas Wood, Sim Browder and Bernard Jaurgery, got into a difficulty resulting in Browder stab bing Jaurgery in the neck inflicting a serious wound, Review. The State Normal School The State Normal school at Monmouth has made a remarkable growth during the past year, as shown in a gain of So per cent in attendance over the year before. The enrollment this year reached nearly 400 students, ana the faculty anticiptte that the number will reach fully 500 next vear. The school is wirV-awake. full of life, and draws a remarkably fine body of j students. Two new members have re- J cently be-.n added to the faculty, Prof P ! A Getz, a graduate of the MUlersville. Pennsylvania, State Normal, and Miss Alice J, Priest, a graduate of Cornell ! University. The music department has also been strengthened Miss Fanny A Avres, a by the addition of I specialist in vocal i culture, who has studied with some of the i most famous singers of America. The school is broadening its work in many wa vt. and is rapidly adding to its facilities for the special training of teachers. The rapid growth of the school would indicate that it is doing all in its power to merit the highest degree of success. The Exposition. The managers of the Portland exposition are exertine every effort to induce exhibitors to place on exhibition at Portland such samples as tney intent to display at Chicago in 1393. A successful competition at Portland will be of great advantage in such cases, and particularly in the case of canned goods the lime intervening will be a safe guar anty against defective sealing. These exhibits will be carefully stored i-- the exposition building free of cost until such time as the exhibitors desire to forward them o Chicago. This proposition gives the opportunity of making the two ex hibits at a minimun cost, and evertone who has an interest in home industries should take advantage of part of the state oe we:l both fairs. it.

The Albany Democrat says considerable delay in tarnishing the steel columns for the state house dome will be caused by the strike in Carnegie's .as mm a mills at Homestead This must certain- ly be a mistake, as the work is to be done at Cleveland, Ohio. Statesman. The work may be done at Cleveland ; I but the material was to come from Car ! nejjies mills according to the manner in which it waa presented to the Democrat. An investigation will probably show this to be about correct I White Lac sdries the Best. If there is one white institution deserving pat ronage as mnch as another it is the white laundry.

A Perfect Baking Powder. The constantly growing demand for Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, the standard cream tartar powder for forty years, is due to two causes. FIRST:The extreme care exercised by the manu facturers to make it perfectly pure, uniform in quality, and of highest raising power. . SECOND: The recent investigations exposing the fact that certain other brands of baking powder contain ammonia and still others that were found to contain alum. Theso unscrupulous manufacturers are being found out, and the consumers are giving them a wide birth. Nothing is left to chance in the manufacture of Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. Chemists are employed to test every ingredient as to purity and strength. Hence; its marvelous purity and uniformity. Each can is like every other. It never dissapoints. BEST is ALWAYS the CHEAPEST. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia, Alum, or any other adulterant In fact, the purity of this ideal powder has never been ques- Roya Royal Baking Powder is shown by chemical tests absolutely pure and 27 pa greater in strength than any other brand. Many grocery stores have receatl stocked with second-class brands ol p6wder, which are urged upon const ; r price of the high-cost, first-class Royal. These powders cost from 8 to 30 pound less than the Royal, besides bem? per cent, less strength. If they are forced you, see that you are charged a correspond:: lower price for them.
