LOCAL RECORD Looks Susriciovs The mystery sur rounding the attempted train wrecking at or near Rice Hilt refuses, as yet to clear away . It is now found out that the crow bar and wrench with which the rail was removed -ere stolen from the tool house of the section crew at Yoncalla. The en trance to the building was obtained by raising a rear window, aud a rock was used to prevent the sash from falling niic me person entered and left the buildioy. Also the tracks plainly show that only one man was Instrumental in obtaining the lools. The rock being used to hold up the sash proves conclusively thatit was the work of one man. If there had been more than one man the tracks would have sSon n them, besides one per son would have held up the window while the other entered. The evening before the attempted wreck Richaidson was in Eugene and told several different persons as to where he was going, e,c- "'' 'old one that he was going to Roseburg to look after business matters at that place, while to another he said he intended leav ing for Texas where he had inherited a vast estate To another gentleman he stated that he had $700 in a Eugene bank, when it is know n that he only had a few dollars. To hear this individual talk a person would have thought that he would not have started out tramping, but would have had the drawing room in a Pullman. Eugene Guard. The Portland Telegram says Mr Rich ardson was stabbed, as reported. lie had several cuts, ranging from the left to tne right side, auch wounds as a man might Inflict with a knife giasped in the right hand. He Is not at all dangerously or even seriously wounded. Our State School Jocrhai.. The April number of the Western redagogue. State School Journal of Oregon, reaches our desk. It is a splendid dumber. The leading features of the magazine are an able article from the pen of Pres John M Hloss, Pres State Agricultural College.on irithmetic Methods, "Hjstoryof Educa tion in Oregon" and the "Value of Lit erature in Teaching Morals." The last named article is from Pres DeGarmo, of SarUmoer college. The Journal con tains besides other articles on education al topics by the leading teachers of Ore gon, a "Current Events" department "Pacific Slope School News" and the us ual quotation box called "The Oracle Answers Queries." The people of the state interested in education may be glad to see this valuable publication filled with new life, and prepared to Promote the cause of education in Oregon. It well deserves patronage and encourage ment. W have made arrangements with the publishers eo that any of the teachers of the county as well as our cit izens can par their subscriptions at this office. Only $1 a year. Ax Exckpttok. The Democrat recent ly published from an exchange an item giving electric belts a pretty bard hit, one undoubtedly deserved by many of them; but not by all. A few posaaaa genuine merit, among them that of Dr Sawden, of Portland, is unquestionably entitled to a place. The following offer by the Doctor speaks for itself in this connection: "We offer a reward of $5,000 for any of our belts which nll not generate a current strong enough to be felt by the patient immediately upon belt being charged. The belt is charged by dipping in one-fourth vinegar to three-fourths water, and will then retain a strong current for twenty- four hours, and in many case longer. It should be borne in mind that we positively guar antee the belt for one year." A LiVK Womax. A story is told of a woman not afraid of rats or even snakes. Here it is : Miss Adams, who lives near Silverton, Marion county, went horseback riding the other day. Her saddle had been banging all winter in the ham, and she noticed that the seat ot the saddle appeared as though a stick might be un der it, hut could not be remc ved without rippiag die saddle. After riding for sev eral miles the horse became suddenly frightened and began to rear and plunge Upon looking around she discovered a enake crawling from the saddle, and with its head striking at the horse and then at her. Realizing her situation she jumped to the ground. Hold'cg the horse with oae hand she killed the snake with a club she held in the other: It was found to be a black rattlesnake three feet long, an J was entirely too much warmed up to be a comfortable companion. A Nw Depository. Owing to the quiet persistent efforts of Postmaster A JN Gilbert, it has been decided by the postofSce department to make the Salem office a depository for money order funds. Heretofore the Portland office has been the only depository of these funds, and Salem is the second city in the state to be thus honored. All the postofRces in the central Willamette valley will now make their deposits of their surplus funds at this office, and this will mater ially increase it business . Those post -offices selecting Salem as their place of deposit will no doubt extend as far south as Roseburg. Statesman. Child Elocutionist. Miss Ada Heist. the marvelous child elocutionist and im personator.wil! give one of her inteiesting entertainments at the M E church next Monday evening, April 10th. 1 he Osage, Kansas, Free Press say's: " Die enter -Uinmentby Little Ada Heist in the Grand Opera House last Thursday evening was remarkable in many respec s. It seemed Incredible that a little girl of nina years should be heard in that large hall, and yet she was heard nuite distinctly. She showed wonderful self possession, and is phenomenal for on of her age. Her se lections were happily chosen and well rendered. Her rendition ol '-The Naughty Girl" kept the aud'ence in a continual outburst of laughter." A Warrant for a Celestial. Thi afternoon on complaint of (fnas Murphy , nightwatcaman on the O P bridge, a war rant was Issued for the arrest of the big necked Celestial, whose appearance on our streets has been an eesore for some time. The Chinaman washed about $20 worth of clothes for Murphy, and two or three days ago moved to Salem, taking the clothes alone. When he get a good live fine it Is to e hoped he be al lowed to return to Salem as fast as the cars will carry him. SameMa.n.

V. All rlrnpalrrtt. 0. M McFarland, DEALER is -:- Harness -and -Saddlery Display in the Boo Richardson Arrested. Yesterday noon Sheriff rloland went to Portland with a warrant for the arrest of Geo E Richardson for wrecking the overland engine recently, and last night Richard son was arrested, and will be taken tonight to Roseburg where he will have to answer the very serious charges, evidence though circumstantial is of a nature to leave little doubt that Richard, son was the man who did the deed. It is probable he had assistance . It trans pires that his wounds were merely scratches. In view of the above the following resolution passed by the saved passen gers reads rather humorously : Whereas, It is owing to the bravery ntui se'l-sacrifice ot .Mr ueorge K Rich, ardson, who, though faint and bleeding from numerous wounds and bruises received at the hands of the persons in tent on wrecking the train.craw led along the track and signaled the train -to stop in time to escape the awful catastrophe; therefore, be it Resolved by the. undersigned passen gers, That onr heartfelt thanks and deep sympathy be extended to the aforesaid George E Richardson, for his noble deed in saving all our lives and property, and for the suffering he has endured from his wounds, ami that we heartily recommend him to 'he consideration of the railroad company for a suitable reward for his brave and noble deed. An Outrage. The says : "No injunction Saleca Journal is necessary to keep the soldier's home at Salem. Where the act does not give color by the legis lative authority for locating a state insti tution at some other place than the Capital City, the constitution locates it here- It is bad enough to force the old vets of Eastern Oregon to travel clear over to Salem, but to force them to go to Roseburg in Southwestern Oregon is simply an outrage. No one thinks of such a thing' Decidedly thin. Cali fornia's soldiers home is in the very Southern limits and the expenses are paid anyway. .Two Albany men wen-- to the San Monta home, and it wasn't an outrage, one finally went back to the Milwaukee home, and there was no outrage. Don't be childish Open vour clam shell. The bill distinctly permits the trustees 4o locate the home wherever they please, and according to the follow ing from the Roseburg Review they very properly win do so: "liie local mem here of the board of directors say that they will pay no attention lo these "kickers." They will probably visit the soldier's homes in Washington and Cali fornia, gather what information they can and then proceed to locate wherever they please." As Elkgant Stork. Th. L E Blain Clothing Co. are nearly rooted Into their new store In the Flinn Block tonight. This is generally pronounced cne of the mjt elegant stores in Oregon, not except - Ing Portland. It la double, elegantly papered, with an L for an office. Large double counters run parallel wi h the streets, displaying the goods In an unex celled light to great advantage. Furnish ing goods, boots arfB ah sea, and hats,each have their departments In commodious and handy locations, while the tai oring department occupies a room in the rear. The store Is a decided credit to Albany Not only dors the s ore and imm nse stock of goods speak for the lity ; but as well the first class managnnent that has been thoroughly tried for , ears, a coiubi nation that will no toubt do much to In crease the already large trade of the company . FreeMail Delivery. Today ends the first quarter of business at the post office for 1893. Heretofore it has been classed as a third-class office, with sale ry and allowances accordingly. The increase in business, however, has brought the re ceipts above the SSooo mark. By the rules of the postoffice department this en titles the Pendleton office to rank as second-class, and gives the postmaster a salary of $2000. In addition to this three carriers are allowed, giving free mail de livery, supplies are furnished and clerk hire increased . The patrons of the office will be glad to learn of these changes, Hoth on account of the benefit accruing to the postmaste. and 10 the public by reason of the free mail delivery. Pendleton E O. Don't count your chickens too fast. Al bany has been above the $Sooo notch a year or two; but there is tin signs of the free delivery. A Fink Gymnastcm. The new Y MC A gymnasium is now in working order. It is firet-c'ass in every respect, for it size, the apparatus being the best that could be secured. The value of such a place for physical culture can hardly be estimated, and Albany is peculiarly for tunate in having one so well equipped. Enough variety is given to satisfy an expert. Those who have visited the gymnasium are universally satisfied with it- The advantage of the bath is also of great importance. Only those will be admitted to the gymnasium having tick ets. It will be no place for deadheads. Ticket will only be fo.OO a year, and at that Albany should present from 150 to 200 members- In fact one cannot afford not to be member. Health is wealth, and the cause itself is the best. A Lyons Matter. C L Reed, of Ly ons, ha an advertisement according to law in the Harrisburg Courier that he will apply at the term of the county court that meets this week for a license to sell liquor at Lyons Being published in the farthest paper from Lyons in the county the anti-saloon people there did not learn of the fact until a day or two ago and then did not have the particulars. The law should require the publication of the notice in the nearest paper to the place. An interesting fact in connection with the matter is that the deeds to property at Lyon have always provided that no liquor could ever be sold on the property. Rev Bare preached last evening from the text "Be ye also ready: (or in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of Man cometh . " He aid the text was suggested by the season the 1st o' April was called in Eastern cities the moving time, and people were warned to get out of the bouse they occupied snd lind nev homes. He said that God warned us in many ways to get ready to move out of this world. He wsrns us by the decay of our physical natures; by God's servants; bv his providences etc. Will you heed the warning and get ready to move into Chri-t'-kingdom? Services to nighi at 7:30.

A private letter from him in Illinois savs that he is still alive and happy under this democratic administration. He vays every body there seems to be satisfied with a democratic president. About the first of April he was to come to Iowa and the first ot May start for Orego . A New School House The election Saturday on the school bonds wts con ducted under the Austrs'ian plan,ai.u re sulted in the voting of tne $20,000 for a new school house and the payment of the balance on the bonds, by a vote of 109 to 22, a very light vote, the confidence in the bond carrying being so great little effort j A number, not in the habit of attending re was made to get out votes. The new ' llglous service have been present and been building will probably be erected on the : lead to inquire Into a higher and better life . district. block, between Third and Fourth and Hill and Madison, and the general sentiment seems to be In favor of thla lo cation, though some want it farther east.
