E-Ws-Fiite-exbibited in the Walla Walla Journal office, Wednesday, "what is probably the largest straw berry ever grown in the valley, if not in the world.

In speaking of the demand for logs on the Sound, J. W. Currie tells a Seattle P. I. reperter: "So far I have found no difficulty in disposing of my logs as fast as I could get them into the water. I returned to-day from Port Discovery, where I went to sell a boom of logs. Seven dollars per thousand is the ruling price for food logs, but I had the cheek to ask 7.50 for mine. The company said they did not want to establish such a precedent, and we compromised on $1 per thousand, which, by the way, is a pretty fair figure for logs, unless they are extra fine-timber." Coffee is up, says the P-L. to r,war times" prices, 'or to the prices that .prevailed in the 60's. Two months ago Costa Rica, for instance, was re tailing in the local market at the rale of five pounds to the dollar, and one month ago, four pounds to the dol lar. The rate is now three pounds, or a higher rate than jt has sold for during the past twenty years. Coffee buyers are astonished now-a-days at the small packages of coffee they get for their great big dollars. A short stock on hand in the markets ,of the world.and a crop shortage in Brazil are said:to be causes for the present advance. I - .

In Mexican offi cial ciroles it is not thought that the intercession of secretary Bayard for leniency will have the desired effeot, as the standing of Col. Aviza in the Mexican army is not of the best There is no sympathy for him among his own 'countrymen. o'bRIEX IN NEW YORK. New York, June 4. Editor Wm.

Good authorities on steamboat matters assort that tho coming sum mer will witness -a bitter -steamboat war on Puget Sound. The Washing ton Steamboat company has perfected plans for doing tho business of the Northern Pacific railroad when tho line of that load is completed over tho Cascade mountains. The Oregon Railway & Navigation company has hitherto held the Northern Pacific trade, and the transferor tho business In tho Washington company will co ate hostility that can only result in cutting of Tntes. The O. R. & N. company i3 making an attempt to ruu tho private steamer Fleetwood off the Sound. To effect this the com pany will bring a fast boat from Portland to run between Seattle and Tacoma, and will place another boat on tho Olympia route, with a through 50-cent tariff. George S. Jacobs, a prominent steamboatman, says the O. R. & N. Co. contemplate putting half a dozen of their Columbia river boats on various Puget Sound routes, with a low schedule of rates for freight and passengers, in tho hope of maintaining the supremacy held in tho past. Seattle Special to Ore. g onion. It would be interesting to know where tho boats are to come from. Astonishing Sncccw. It is the duty of every person who has used Boscnee''s German Syrity to let its wonderful qualities bo known to their friends in curing Consump tion, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No person can use it without immediate relief. Threo doses will relievo any case, and wo consider-it the duty of all DrnggiBts to reoommend it to the poor, dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 80,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot bo too widely known. Ask your druggist about it. Sample bottles to try sold at 10 cents. Regular sizo, 75 cents. Sold by all Druggists and Dealers, in tho United States and Canada. F.njoyins Life. San Gabriel, which for the pr.si half century has been a synonym for slow-going, at last is awakening, and is preparing to enjoy some of the boom which is sweeping all around her. The early Spanish fathers didn't travel all the way from San Diego to settle at last in the poorest portion of tho beautiful valley. In fact they thought they had the best, and the good people of-Sau Gabriel still think so. Sales are being auuonnced of the old improved places to eastern partics-which are astonishing. L. H. Titus sold his place Thursday, con sistimg of 162 acres two miles from tho station, for $265,000. Mr. Titus went east Wednesday and made some handsome presents in the wavof cash, giving $20,000 to one daughter, S20, 000 to his other daughter, Mrs. New ton, and $20,000 to each of her two children.

Lord Lovell ho stood at hia own front door Seeking the hole for the key; His hat was wrecked and his trousers bore A rent across either knee, "When down carao. tho beauteous Lady Jane " Iu fair white- diaperee. "Oh, where have yon been, Lord Lovell," she said; "O. where hare vou been?" said she; 'I have not closed an oyo in bed, And the clock has just struck 3.

' Multnomah county, says tho Teh gram, has paid to tho state treasurer tho full amount of her state "taxes, amounting to about $3S00," less about $2,600, which was her share of tho- moneys in which various coun ties in the state wero .reimbursed by the last legislature." This county has also satisfied in full the claims whioh tho state held against it for S9.9S3.81,' delinquent taxes of 1884, and $1,5G8, delinquent takes prior to 188G. Many of the counties have paid in full their dues to-"tbe state, and all except Uma tilla have paid a part. The latter county, it is understood, will settle in full in a short time. Most of tho counties, also, are paying not only the taxes of lSSb, but their delin quencies of former years. Union and Baker are tho only exceptions. The promptness with which their taxes have been paid by the counties, and the manifestation of a desire on their part to settle all delinquencies, may be taken as a sign of the better times with which the country is beginning to bo blessed. Uunerc-sary Misery. Probably as much misery comes from habitual constipation as from any derangement of the functions of tho body, and it i3 difficult to cure, for the reason tbat jio one likes to take the medicines usually pre-i scribed.

Not a salt water .fish is to be had. and as for salmon, there is barely enough for tho officers.

Madame Trebelli, the greatest "of living contraltos whd- has traveled extensively, in fact visited every county and city of note in -the world, has just departed from the-slope of tho Pacific, and often expressing tho greatest admiratio-i for the beauty and grandeur of our scenery and the delightful mildness of our climate, left the following written note as a living expression of her opinion in the hands of a Portland druggist, tho original of which can bo seen on de mand.
