Happenings Over the City ami News From llio Country. Pulled For Playing Poker. Tho police raided a gambling game last night atHalliwell s saloon, corner of State and Commercial streets. Tho result of tho surprise was tho arrest of one Jones, who had been manipulating the paste hoards quite freely to his success. The information was filed by James Maegher, who had been entrapped und quite neatly swindled. His ways that were dark and tricks that were mean were introduced into the game of poker. His examination this morning before Itccorder Cohu resulted in his being bxtnd over under bonds of $50. to await the action of the grand jury. The arrest of Jones was followed this morning by that of Jack Hal llwell, proprieter of tho saloon In which the game was conducted. Ho was charged with permitting un lawful gaming In his house. The Information was tiled by J. S. McDonald, who was duped by Jones. Retaliating, Halliwcll had McDon arrcstcd on charge of gambling. The pair were bound over to await tho grand jury. Movement of Artillery. Gen. Gibson, under date of Janu ary 10, issued tho following erder: In compliance with telegraphic in structions from headquarters di vision of the Pacific Light IJattery 15, First artillery, now stationed at Vancouver, will proceed by rail to tho Presidio of San Francisco with tho least possible delay, and there take station. In response to the above tho en tire battery was removed pesterday to the city of the Oolden Gato. It passed through Salem at 0 o'clock last night, via tho Southern Pacific line. J t required eighteen cars to cll'eet the transfer. In New Quarters. P.J. Larsen, tho wagon maker formerly of Commercial street but now at '12 State street, wishes to state to the people- of Salem and vi cinity that ho Is now ready for all work In his line, he refers to his past work as to his abilities as a workman. Any one wanting, any work In tho wagon-making business could not do better than call on Mr. Jjiirsen as ho Is desirous of your pat ronage. His shop is located one door south of Scrlbcr & Pohlc's. Ite niember tho location and call and see him. Cliange or Location, Messcrs Seriber fe Pohle, who have done a general blacksmithlug business in our city for a long time, have removed their shops to 17 and ID ritato street. These gentlemen are woll known throughout tho country and aro worthy of a good patronage. They ask only a trial to prove their work first class, to those who have not favored them with their patronage before. They deslro to thank their many customers for past lavors and earnestly ask a con tinuance of the same, ltemember the new location. I'lKbtlng KJlturt.. Nohoonor Is M. Mitchell, the vei. Biitllo Gervais editor, out of a fight than lu J. MeMahau, the lighting editor of Woodburn's Independent, is into the ring. He was knocked out by It. J. Caples of the firm of Hem low & Hall of Woodbum. This is tho second llstleuir of the Wood burn editor since lie began to fill tho long-folt-wtuit six weeks ago. It was ho who knocked down and drug out the ivsthetlo young T. 1). Porter a few weeks ago. At Home Oure 3lorr. John Knight, Salem's boss black smith and wagon maker, Is now located at his now quarters on Lib erty street, and Is prepared to servo all his customers who need his services. Mr. Knight needs no rec onjmundatlous from any one, as he Is woll known throughout this coun try as turning out only llrst-clnps work. Ho will bo pleased to sea his friends and customers, at any timo. PlonM) boar in mind the new loca tion. (Uvr up the Stktuif. 13. II. Flagtf, who formerly con ducted tho St. Holeus Mtst, and -spout last week lu cttiivnaaiiuj Saigm with tho view to the c8tnhlshniont of a democrat lu weekly how, has given up the Jdea and vU start a paper at llllWboro. Thorn Is but ouo paper In Wtwhlujtou county, tho Independent. Thto l except ing the college paper nt Forest Grove, A FURNITURE MANUFACTORY. A Proposition to Establish Extensive Works in Salem. Tho idea and talk of tho establish ment of a woolen mill here Is at tracting capital from all directions nnd in all lines. A company of gentlemen yesterday proposed to build and operate a furniture manu factory If a subsidy would be given them. Their proposition is this: To build and operate a first-class factory for tho manufacture of all kinds of furniture, tho same to cost $2o,000 Tho assistance they will ask from tho people is $5,000. Such a bonus they think, also do those with whom they were in conference, could bo readily raised, as tho busi ness in which they propose to en gage would give employment to a large force ot men, convert much of our raw material into salable arti cles in demand everywhere and bring much money into the country. Just now tho gentlemen at the head of the scheme would prefer their names to bo withheld, but their proposition will be submitted within a few days. This manufactory, and similar ones, are just what Salem needs to make her boom in an unheard of or unexpected manner. Give us shops and mills in which to employ the laborer and our city will move on rapidly. Wo are coming to tho front already, but more manufac tories are needed. It Is tho poor men tho day laborers that make a city. Give us employment for these and we can crack our whip at tho retired note shaver. A New Upper River Boat. As anticipated in the Capital Jouhnal bomo weeks ago, a new boat for the upper river is soon to be constructed. Tho increasing and active traffic in freight along the river makes another boat necessary and tho contract has been let by the O. It. & N., to construct a new boat. Tho steamer Avhcn completed will cost about t20,000, and will not be an elaborate afliiir, as has been stat ed but will bo built and used for car rying freight, witli but littlo regard for passenger business. She will draw but thirteen inches of water, and in consequence will bo able to run tho year round except in ex trcnio cases when the river Is frozen over on the upper Willamette, where her route will lie. Work will begin on tho boat at once, and sh will bo got out for use just as soon as pos sible. Oregon's Dig lied Apples. Oregon apples find u ready mar ket everywhere. Last fall hundreds of bushels were shipped to China, Japan and Australia, while thous ands of bushels annually find a quick sale in San Francisco. In fact our apples find such an admir able market that not half enough are retained for homo consumption. Tho boarders at the hotel to-day will find little Calllornia npples on the table. Oiegon's supply is about ex hausted. Last fall the trees hung to their fullest and to-day, oven though 75 coutspcr bushel is oficrcd, thero are very few apples to be had. It is a fact that thero is more money in Oregon apples at twenty-five cents per bushel than in wheat at seventy cents. The future of Oregon apples promises much. Salem's Woolen Mills. Thomas Kay of tho Brownsvlllo woolen mills lias not yet arrived in tho city for the purpose of conferring with the Salem committer regard ing the establishment of mills here. He writes that he will bo in tho city on Tuesday. At that time some def inite action will bo taken. Thecom niltteotell us that Salem lsquito cer tain to receive this establishment and that in all probability the rais ing 1 1 tho bonus will bo consummat ed by the middle of next week. Actlrlty In the New Park. Thero Is much activity in the neighborhood of tho new Capital Park. Uolllngor & Co. report that there are a good many lots contract ed, tho sale of which will bo consum mated at an early day. There will bo considerable building there In tho spring, judging Atmi the present outlook. Aug.

He was born in Henry county, Illinois, in 1855. At tho ago of fifteen he crossed the plains with his parents and it is needless to say that they experienced somo tryiug times on their journey. In the year '60 they settled in Jackson county, where the aged parents now reside. In the year '78 Mr. Howard ceased his single life and was married to Miss C. Briggs; to them, have been born four children, two boys and two girls. Mr. Howard is a land sur veyor by occupation, has held the office of county surveyor in Jackson county for fourteen years and was at one timo U. S. deputy mineral surveyor. Mr. Howard is serving his first term as representative from Josephine county where he lived un til a few months ago, when he moved to Grant's Pass. Mr. How ard is a strong republican. HON. C. II. CROSNO. Mr. Crosuo hails from Illinois, from that part which is familiary called "Egypt." Somo might think from tho above that Mr. Crosuo was probably an "Egyptian," but not so, ho is ono of our most respected repre sentatives, and a full-fledged A-i.eri-cau. He was born in Jefferson county, 111., in 1845, where he re sided until ho had reached his twen tieth year, then a number of people caught the "Western fever" and he crossed tho "Plains" in '65 in a company of ono hundred wagons. At tho time they crossed, ihe rebel prisoners were guarding "Ben Holli day's" stage route. The company started on the 4th clay of April and arrived at Vancouver on tho 15th day of October following. Thus you will see that the long journey oc cupied four months and eleven days' time, but wo believe our friend Crosno would have been sat isfied if tho journey would have lasted a year, as ho acknowledges that It was tho happiest part of his life. In 1873 he married Miss C. E. King and their homo is brightened by two children, ono boy and ono girl. Mr. Crpsno settled in Benton county, Or., in '08 and has resided thero up to the present time. He at one timo was clerk of tho Indian reservation nt Slletz. lie has led a quiet and unassuming life and is now serving his first term as repre sentative from Benton county. He is a republican, and Toledo is his postoillce. Depth of Scenery on the 0. P. Tho Albany Democrat man has just returned from a trip on tlioOiv gon Pacific and says: "Tho trip was without special 'merest until we reached the banks of tho 'classic Santlam.' Up to this point, a dis tance of about eighteen or twenty miles, the line of the road is through a thickly settled, rich, farming re gion. But now the mountains on eithor side of the Suntlnm begin to close in upon us and the company turn their attention to the beautiful mountain scenery. But hero wo are at Lyonsvillo opposite Meh.una. This is a new town just sorinlng Into existence. Wo glide up the serpen tine banks of the Snntinm until wo reach Mill City at the crossing of the Santlam. This town is laid out on tho Marlon county side. Here and from this point on the mount ains crowd us in more closely to the river and thesnow on the mountain slopes extends its long arms down nearer and nearer to the river until at the end of tho track we find two or three Inches of snow. At Gates ville, we wero lu the very midst of the crags and mountain peaks of tho headwaters of tho North San tlam." KMIc Putnam In "Nil's lilrl." Tho porformanco last night at Heed's opera by Miss Putnam, of "Dad's Glrl,'was in the usual excel lent form. Tho whole company played their parts woll. To thoso who havo witnessed Mi&s Putnam's playing, It Is useless to speak of her line acting. Strangers who taw hor for tho first time and who havo a largo oxporience as theatre goers were delighted and loud lu their, commendations. Dad's Girl is a difficult part to play well, as it re quires the experience of so mauy emotions, yet MUs Putnam did all to porfcetlon. The father's part was admirably performed. Mr. Croable is a tlno comtnedlan but spoalta too rapidly andwlUinuocensloual iudls tluotnetis of enunciation which loaves tho auditor utterly Ignorant of what he said. LOCAL, SUMMARY.

Late yesterday evening Sheriff Crolsan received a telegram as fol fel fol eows: "Another fight at Gervais. Send justice or recorder at once. Peter Michael, Constable." From this it would seem the war at Gervais is not over.
