"Now where I live, wo dress a dozen quail, or take a piece of deer meat, and stick it into a snow bank, and sir weeks after, go and get it, and there it is frozen stiff, and as fresh as though just killed."

It is said that the following remedy for diphtheria, where it has been applied promptly, has never been known to fail in effecting a cure. It is a remedy that was discovered in Germany, and it. is said to be the best known. The remedy is simply as follews: At the first indica tion of diphtheria in tho throat of the child, make the room clean. Then take a tin enp and pour into it a quantity of tar and turpentine, equal parts. Iheu hold the cup over the lire so as to fill the room with the fumes. The little patient, on inhaling the fumes, will fall asleep, and when it awakes it will cough and spit up the membraneous matter, and the diphtheria will pass off. The fumes of the tar and turpentine loosen tho mat ter in the throat, thus affording relief. The remedy is simple, and parents should cut this out and preserve it. PERSONAL MENTION. W. F.

Cashier First Xulioixil F,u,d.. '.florin. Oregon. Deuj Srr.: Your telegram of Siturday tho 23rd. followed later by the marked articles of The Astojuan' and other papers, have given us an inkling of the man, J. Bennett. Some time ago a man, whose description fits exactly tho man of your town, came to us and represented that he was a wealthy stock man from Ellensbnrg, that he had fifteen thousand dollars coming by express, and he wished to make a deposit with us. We told him all right. And ho gave his name J. C. Buris, and in a very shaky, tremulous hand so placed his signature on our books. He was hi urgent need of five hundred dollars on accounnt of some cattle deal, but wo told him we would wait the arrival of tho express. Later checks began to como in from Portland, Ellensbnrg, Seattle, Olympia, and in fact from all the Sound, and large interior cities. Some woro signed correctly as shown by our signature book, some by a mark, and witnessed, and others in various styles. I am very well satisfied that the two men are identical and that no is a beat of the first clas. There is a possibility that the First Nitional bank of Olympia would be pleased to hear from him, as they had the pleasure of having posses sion of one of his protested checks.

About a hundred more men went to work last week, and there are now about a thousand men at work on the road. The driving of piles for the western part of the bridge across Young's bay is finished, and the bridge work on this side of the hay will begin about the 5th prox. Tho preliminary survey of the louto of the road from the city terminus is com pleted. It is believed that that, terminus will be in the neighborhood of tho West Shore Mill, about on what is known as theJos.Humo property, though that is not, as yet, definitely settled. Reports from all parts of the work under con struction are of a most satisfactory na ture, tho only delay being in the non-ar rival of material: of which there is con siderable on the way, bat none i turned! ately available. Fashions in Cloaks. The leaning of fashion toward rich fabrics and colors is exhibited most clearly in outside garments designed for winter wear. There are plain jackets, raglans, ulsters and peasant cloaks mado simply or plain, striped, plant or mixed woolens, differing from one another in detail of cut or finish or fabric, or all these, but their province is limited to the simplest costumes. Outer wraps intended to be worn with handsome dresses or up on occasions whore good taste does not demand simplicity, are unusuallv elegant in appearance this season. Cloth, velvet and silk cord trimmings, are combined with extremely rich effect in long cloaks fitted to the figure at tho back,more or less loose luting from throat to ankle, made with long-pointed or squara-wing sleeves. The Albany and Astoria Eailro.ul. W. B. Barr, tho engineer iu charge of the Albany and Astoria railroad, le turned yesterday, from a trip to Tilla mook, and is very much pleased over the result of his reconoissance. He says that he found two routes, either one of which will bo perfectly satisfactory The coun try surpassed all his expectations. Ho says that tho fifty miles ho traversed be tween hero and Tillamook exceed in value for a railroad any similar area in Oregon, and that the country through which tho road will run gives assurance of being capable of furnishing valuable traffic for tho road.

He had gone from his house to Capt. Ferchen's on some business, and when almost in front of his house on West Gth street, he sank lifeless to the ground.

The withdrawing of the Po Iter from the river route puts things back tho way they were some j'ears ago, except that ttio popular Sunday trips no longer con tinue.

Will He lluiltOa This Side. Capt. J. W. Troup, of tho O. R. & N. Co., is just now bu33' modeling a new steamer for that company. It will bo the first strictly Feagomg steamer over built at Portland. Tho old Eliza And erson was constructed there thirty years ago, and 'it is still a3 sound as a rock, but her machinery was that of the old S. li. Wheler and was brought in a sailing vessel from the Sandwich Islands, where tho Wheeler was wrecked. The new boat will be about 280 feet in length and.have her machinery made either by one of the foundries in Tortland or in San Fran cisco. Her design will be after that of one of the favorite Long Branch boats now running out of New York, and she will have twin screws working independ ent of one another. The O. R. & N. Co., after witnessing Capt. Troup's success with tho Poller, are not Iik6ly to build any moro boats in tho east, as the Potter can make the Olymjjians time with less than one-half tho Olympian's fuel. This boat will have six months' gcod solid earnings to her credit before any eastern built boai cculd rerch here.

The following, from the Ellensbnrg lieyister, is a tough deal: 'A weary and disgusted immigrant from Nebraska, was found yesterday near Pasco sleeping un der the soothing effects of triple extract of rye, and on his breast was a card which boro tho legend: '1,300 miles from home.
