Valley newspaper men are talking of organizing a press association and the state press is to be invited to meet at Yaquina City on the 30 th of next month.

Kea to run a 200-yard foot race on the afternoon of the 18th of next month for $500 a side. Two hundred dollars forfeit f money was deposited with J. F.

Khea and a very excellent company gave a very pleasing represen tationof the strange legend of ''Pyg malion and Galatea" at Eoss's opera house last evening. The circumstance on whioh the whole play hinges is a fanciful one and of so shadowy and peculiar a nature as to demand in its exponents a high order of talent and the position of unusual histrionic gifts, demands that in this instance were fully met. Last Thursday, the 23d, Jno. Lar son and P. F. Peterson, fishing for George & Barker, were upset at the mouth of the river and both men drowned.

Colvin, a logger, aged 26, who was drowned off a whisky scow in the slough near there last Friday bight, and his body recovered the next day. He impaneled a jury consisting of S. M. Coffinbury, Wm. Boss, Wm. McFarland, J. Beaten, Jas. Van and Chas. Boot Chas. Eaton, who runs the scow, was the first witness. He said Colvin went to his place Friday afternoon. During tho afternoon Colvin and a man named James Buby quarreled. About 2 o'clock he re fused to give Colvin any more liquor; Colvin struck at him. He took a knife and told Colvin to keep off, or he would certainly hurt him. He asked J. L. Morgan to put Colvin out Then he took a shotgun and told Colvin and Euby that if they didn't keep their hands off him (Eaton) he would certainly protect himself. Then they began fighting again, Morgan trying to separate them About 6 o'clock Morgan told him Colvin had fallen overboard. He jumped into a skiff, watched for him to come up; when he came to the top of the water he went down again; then another man jumped, over and tried to save him, but coumn't. That was the last Eaton saw of him till he wa3 taken out of the water by Chas. Forrest the next day. After it was all over there was a cartridge in his (Eaton's) shotgun, and he couldn't get it out; so he fired it off. Morgan was on the end of the scow with Col vin when he went overboard. J. L. Morgan was the next wituess. Knew deceased for 16 years. Went to Eaton's scow at 2 p. m., Friday; he, Colvin, Graham and two others took a drink at the bar; then wrangling be gan; Colvin and a half-breed were both drunk; they had two fights. Col vin and Eaton had some hard words; Colvin struck at Eaton. Eaton took a knife from under the bar and told him if he didn't get out of there he would trim him down. Then Eaton put the knife away and got a shotgun, and said he would proteot himself and scow. Morgan got Colvin outside and told him he was foolish to go in and run against a shotgun. Eaton told him to keep Colvin out as he would hurt him if he got in again. Ho was between Colvin and the door; Colvin was trying to get in; he said: "Jake, old man, get out of the way; I can take care of myself." Then he made a spring or stagger and went off tho upper end of the scow; Morgan shouted "Eaton is overboard," and stood -quite n while and waited for him to come up. Then two men, Eaton and a man thought to be Jim Buby, the man that he had been fight ing with, jumped into a boat, but didn't get him. Then witness left the scow. Andrew Anderson and B. B. Gra ham testified substantially the same. Colvin had been at Beynold's and had been drinking before he went to Eat on's. Eaton wanted to bet $10 that he could get a man who could whip Colvin, and Morgan wanted to bet 20 that he could find u man who could whip him. The bets were not made. He, Graham, was overcome and went to sleep. When he woke, Morgan said Colvin was overboard. Went out and saw Colvin about ten feet from the scow, apparently swim ming. Heard him say: "I'll be even with the sons of yet!" Eaton and Buby's boat pnller were in a skiff' below the piles reaching for him. i -Further examination and a verdict , were postponed. There is considera ble feeling reported in the vicinity and a suspicion of foul play. The verdict will be given on Thusday and Coroner Boss will go up the next day. A New Gazetteer. B. L.

Give Them a Chance! That is to say, your lungs. Also your breathing maohinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air-passages, but the thous ands of little tubes and cavities lead ing from them. When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your lungs cannot half do their work. And what they do, they can not do well. Call it cold, cough, croup, pneu monia, catarrh, consumption or any of tho family of throat and nose and head and lung obstructions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just one suro way to get rid of them, that is to take Bosohee's German Syrup, which any druggist will sell you at 75 cents a bottle. Even if everything else has failed you, you may depend npon this for certain. The English Salmon Market. The London Grorer of June 4th says of the market m that city: It may be noted that the receipts of sal mon during the month were consid erably heavier than those in the pre vious May, and the total for the five months was not far short of that in the preceding year. The total reoeipts of salmon in the United Kingdom in May were ob,470 cases, making a total since January 1st, 1887, of 244,254 cases, against 2b2,ltr2 cases for the previous corresponding period. The Grocer refers a3 follows to the Liverpool market: Business in sal mon is almost stagnant and there will be no improvement until the hol- way season has expired. If fair weather should follow, then there is every iiKenuood or a steadily increas- mg ousmess during me summer. Grocers are not holding large stocks, and it will be fully four months before new fish can arrive. We quote 23s 6d26s for Columbia river, and 23s 6d24s for outside rivers. The London Grocers? Gazette of June 4th says: 'A quiet tone per vades tho salmon market, but values are fully maintained, and should any strong demand set in, higher rates are inevitable. There is nothing of importance to report as to the Liver pool market since our last, for, as usual, there is never much doing dur ing Whitsun week, but tho niaiket re mains very firm at full market rates.
