It Is a remarkable thing, yet iuit what one would expect of "Soapy' that be died a poo' man, notwithstanding the enormous sums ol money be made,- At the height of tbe Skagwav boom tnere ia little doubt that he mads from $200 to $250 a day. When the committee of "101" was tunning tbe bunko men cut of Skagway last March and posted notices warning grafters of something to happen, "Soapy' walked through the town pull ing down the signs and ssying: "I am tbe nncowned king of Skagway, and tby can't drive me away." Smith's people, excepting b's wife.live at Belton, Tex. Sporting men admit (bat Frank ReiJ, city t orvevor of Skagway, did a good job wben be killed 8miih.yet they f.lo say tbat it remains a fact that Smii U was tha most popular man ia Al- asas. Reid rfcently lived at Whatcom, Wash. He came originally 'rom Sweet Home, Or , where his family Is wall known. In 1879 Reid bad trouble over domestic affairs with James Simon. It was claimed that Simon threatened to kill Reid. Tbe two men met one day. Trouble followed and Reid shot Simoo dead. A tier a long trial he was acquit ted on tbe ground of self-defense.

Editor D km oca at ' Will you allow me a little space in your paper to say s few words on an article in your paper of July 1st entitled a garden spot and a criticism on that article in your last paper. The writer of the first article is a most estimable lady and I know she did not intend in any way to slight the home of her nativity, the Willamette valley. 1 have traveled nearly all over California at all times oi the year, and to one going into mat state aoout the hrst ot March, as they look upon the fruit trees in full bloom witu th? iragranceol the blossoms permeating the whole atmosphere, and sit down to the table to dine with all kinds of fresh vegetables gathered from their gardens and feel the invigorating effects of the bright warm suoshine,after passing out of our damp cold winter at mosphere it makes one feel as if they was in the garden spot of earth. lhere is nothing in this world tbat will cause an invalid to tall in love with a section of the country quicker, nor cause them to see all its beauties, overlooking its defects.than knowing the particular section they may be in is the cause of re- snoring uieir ioet ueanu. ai is i uiiii. ser ial if it is by artificial means, if by that artificial means the sou will produce whatever is planted in aDunaane it in garden spot.

From the Toledo Leader : Last Saturday one of the boilers out of the wreck ol the old Yaqnina City, that bad been lying in the sands of South Beach about ten years was taken on over the Corvaliis & Eastern. This boil er was a hnge one, occuping the whole of one nm car, ana was wiuer ami mgue than the ordinary box car. In passing through the tunnels on the way out only a amall margin ot space was leit on cacn side, and it took some careful work of the train men to get it through safely, This boiler lay imbedded in tbe sands of South Beach lor some nine or ten years, and by many was supposed to be utterly worthless, but Henry wuli, ol xaquina had an idea that it might be recovered and after considerable work it was res cued from its sandy bed about a year ago after a careful inspection it was pro nounced to be almost as good as ever.
