Fivi Dollars and Costs. The
Gliueski-Bibiski trial, of which men
tion was made in thee columns last
week, took place at Reuben before
Justice Brown last Saturday. Glin
esklwas charged with assault upon
the porsoo of Mrs. Sibiskl with a club
while the latter was picking berries
on a disputed tract of laud. After
many wituosses had been examined
entailing a great dual of expense, the
court imposed a flue of 5 aud coats
Upon tbe defendant.
Tiachbrs' InTiTUTa.-Tbe institute
which will be held at Bainier next

gratia and all gentlemen teachers at
reduced rates, to wo have been re
quested to announce, and everything
possible will be done to make the ses

Cranbkrry Culture. The Bandon
Record notes the atarting of a new in
dustry in that locality It says; "An
drew Johnson intends going into the
cranberry business on his ranch near
Bennett Bosch. He hss two acres
ready for the plow and will set out the
plants this fall or winter. Mr. John
son has some good land adapted to
that business and there seems to be
no reason why the cranberry indue! ry
will not prove profitable." Over in
Washington there is a cranberry
xnarah, which bas been in successful
operation for several years, but this is,
we believe, the first attempt to raise
the Thanksgiviug delicacy in this state.
A Queir Case. At .villsboro, on
Tuesday before Justice Knight, says
the Salem Statesman, William II.
Roberts wss to have been examined
on a charge of rape, committed Janu
ary last on Olive J. Ryohmsn, a girl of
1 living with bar widowed father at
Pumpkin Ridge in the northern end of
Washington county. Before the hear
ing wss begun Roberts' attorney, Thos.
H. Tongue, stated that Roberta was
willing to marry Olive and comply
with any request she might make of
him. The deputy district attorney,
after counseling with Olive and her
father, moved that the oase be dis
missed, providing Roberts would marry
her, and at onoe leave the state and
not return, to all of which Roberts
gladly promised, and ss soon as Ryck
man could procure a license the jus
tice performed the oeremony. Roberts
at onoe bid his new wife good-by, she
expressing a wish to never again see
him. Roberts is an old pensioner and
ha at onoe gave his wife's father papers
binding himself to assign to her for
her support his pension drafts the re
mainder of his life.
Seleotiow of School Books. Ac
cording to tbe laws of 1889 this is the

ussd in the public schools of tbe state
during the next six years. Tbe books
to be used are selected by the several
county aohool superintendents and
members of the state board of exam
iners, who are to record their vote be
fore the first day of January next.
The state school superintendent is di
rected by law to issue a circular to the
county superintendents and the ex
aminers containing a list of studies to
be taught in the publio schools, to
gether with the wholesale, retail, ex
change and introductory prices of all
the books in the list. Those entitled
to vote write opposite eaob study tbe
text book or series of text books pre
ferred. These replies are transmitted
to the state superintendent, and by
him to the state board of education,
and upon a canvas of the vote the text
books receiving a majority of the votes
cast are declared to be tbe authorised
text books for the six years next suc
ceeding the official announcemept,
Grocers' p(cHto-Tbere were about
ifiW people here from Portland
Wednesday. The picnic was given
by the retail grocers' sssooiations of
Portland. The first boat to arrive was
the Sarah Dixon with 105 people, and
one hour later oame the Undine with
almost as many, and still two hours
later the Emma Hay ward came pok
fng along with the barges Alias and
Columbia's Chief, all three loaded to
their fullest cspaoity. People were
packed In them like ssrdincsin a box.
All bud to stand up In order to make
room for the seething mass of human
ity. I n leaving the city many families
were divided, some coming on one
boat and some on another aud in
many cases the ones in charge of the
lunch wss on the slow boat, not arriv
ing here u.itll 8 o'clock in the after
noon, much to tbe disgust of those on
land as well as steamer. It seemed as
if everybody wanted to come. The
first barge was losded and then a sec
ond one was secured at the boneyard
and it, too, was crowded. A great
deal of dissatisfaction was expressed
at the way things were managed, not
taking into consideration how difficult
it is to please everybody, more especi
ally a plcnio crowd. After the arrival
of the last boat the throng all mingled
at the picnic grouud and ale
their lunches together. A great
many brought their lunches with
them but for the greater part of the
orowd a beef and two sheep had been
Derueoued tbe night before and bread
was sent in abundance irom Portland,
so that all present were served with
lunch. After luncheon was over the
various games as per programme was
the order of the day. At 4 o'clock
tbe first boat left for Portland on the
return trip, and was soon followed by
a second steamer and at 6 o'clock the
steamer towing tho barges left with all
that rould find standing room on
board. We believe there never was
so many people in St. Helens before,
and hope tbe grocers, butchers, bakers
and their families will see fit to come
often.
Girls j Demand. An Astoria
paper seems to harbor some spite
against the young ladies of Portland.
It says: "The Portland girls at Gear
hart Park are com plaining bitterly of
the report that has been circulated
that there are two men to every girl at
the park. The result has been to flood
this pleasant resort with girls, and the
few men who are there have to ko on
duty in regular relays, this system
having been inaugurated at the begin
ning of tbe present week. At sunrise
on Thursday the beach was as lively
ss ordinary noon, and the girls are
determined to keep this up until the
report is proved untrue."
From Southern Orkqok. W. J.
Fullerton, formerly of Gillton but now
resiling in Eugene, called on The
Mist Monday. Mr. Fullerton came
over for the purpose of looking after
his farm on Sosppoose bay and mak
ing necessary repairs occasioned by
the recent high water. He expects to
remain on his farm for some time yet.
He says crops in the Upper Willamette
valley were never better in the history
of the country, and the only thing ne
cessary to make better times in Ore
gon is a market for our agricultural
products.
Sure Thing Game. In broad day
light and out in the street stood a
mau Wednesday conducting a "sure
thing" shell game, and continued to
bleed "suckers" until stopped by the
city marsliall. However, he succeeded
in "roping in" a few of the unwary be
fore noticed by the officer. It seems
that people would some time learn
better than to patronise these gambling
gsmes, more especially such a well
known fraud as the shell game.
Plenty or Bidders. The Rale of
tbe Hhattuck property at Scappoose,
by H. C. Lamberson, administrator,
took place last Saturday at tbe court
house in St. Helens. There were a
number of bidders on hand and the
property sold very well for these times.
For awhile the bidding war quite
lively, some of the intending purchas
ers biddiog about all the property was
worth.
Reoatta at Astoria. The muoh
talked of regatta takes place at Astoria
today, tomorrow and Monday three
days and promises to be very inter
esting. Nearly all the river steamers
have reduced tne tare lor tnose
three days and tickets are good until
next Wednesday to retnru.

Astoria, Aug. 12, Judge Wis wall,
of Vanoouver, Clarke county, Wash;,
was drowned at Clatsop Beach at 10
o'clock this morning, Being an ex
cellent swimmer, he alwsys ventured
beyond the breakers, Today he went
outside the life lines, when tbe tide
was ebbing, and is supposed to have
been tsken with cramps. He sank
from sight beneath the waves in view
of hundreds of people on the beach.
Beveral bathers near him attempted
to rescue him, but without avail. The,
body was not seen afterward. All at
tempts to rescue him proved fruitless.
His wife stood on the beach and
watched her husband drown. She!
was frantic with grief when she real
ised what had happened, and hours
afterward walked the beach carrying
her child and refusing all offers of
comfort and consolation. There was a
strong undertow at the time, and it
was considered a reckless act to ven
ture beyond the life lines.
Judge Wiswall was elected judge
of the superior court for Clarke, Cow
litz snd Skamania counties two years
ago on the democratic ticket, there
being an independent republican in
the Held. He was 35 years old.
HIS LAT WORDS.
Mr. Dillard, of St. Helens, was the
person to whom Judge Wiswall ad
dressed his last words. The two men
entered the water together, and, as
both were strong swimmers, they
struck out for the big breakers. Mr.
Dillard was first to reach tbem, and
whoa be turned around he saw bis
companion about 160 feet behind him,
and evidently in trouble. Mr. Dillard
at once awain back, and, as be ap
proached Judge Wiswall, the latter
shouted that be did not think be could
get back to shore. A strong ebb tide
was running at the time, and Mr. Dil
lard himself experienced much diffi
culty in making headway against it.
He told tbe judge to keep cool, bow
ever, and said that tbe next big in
ward swell would ride them to safety ,
The breaker came, but its effect was
not that expected. Instead of carry
ing the swimmers shoreward, it broke
and swept tbem about twenty feet
further out to sea. Judge Wiswall
said that if help did not come at once
be would drown, and these were his
last words. Mr. Dillard was also be
coming exhausted, and realizing bis
peril, be struck out to save himself,
feeling confident be could do nothing
to help his unfortunate companion.
In battling with the strong undercur
rent be swam to the south and finally
managed to get out of tbe swirl that
was oarry ing Judge Wiswall to death.
It was a very narrow escape for Mr.
Dillard. When be staggered ashore,
he was aa weak as an infant.
