Natural Ehouoh. A Eugene girl,
i" 1gBJ 5 "J ? .J!"."::
came aorosa a bunch of aged love let-
ten, written by her lather to her motb
a, In their oourtahlp days. The girl
eaw a chance for aome fun, and read
them to her mother, pretending they
were of recent date, and aubstituting
ber name for that of her mother, and
that of a floe young man for that of
Iter father. Tbe mother jumped up
nd down In her chair, shifted her feet
nd woe perfectly disgusted, forbidding
iter daughter to have anything to do
with a young man who would write
eurb sickening and disgusting stuff to
girl. When the young lady handed
tho loiters to her mother to read the
bouse became so still that you could
hear tbe grata sprouting In tbe yard.
Fnw risaa.;Wftn -There la a
movement on foot by the people living
along Bcappooae bay to have the chau
el deepened to as to permit of larger
steamers running further up the hay.
We are told that the people will peti
lion congress for an appropriation to
carry ou the work, and it la intended
to dredge the channel from the mouth
of tbe bay to the llonneyman place,
and then in order to keep the channel
open it is proposed to turn 8oappoote
creek into it. and thus have a strong
atream of water the entire length of
the bay. Tbie once done, will prove a
great benefit to the Bcappooae country,
enabling tbe farmer to ship their pro
duce from their own plaoes, at greatly
reduced rates, and affording a splendid
chance for some enterprising steam
boat man to eatabltsh a paying busi
ness. It is hoped the scheme may be
successfully worked, for indeed, it oar
ries with it many advantage.
Eu.ii at Hom. In reply to Inquiry,
says the Ueppner Gaiette, Congress
man Kllis stated that hi bill which
passed the bouse amending the law so
a not to require actual residence on
railroad lands, also passed the senate
without amendment, and went to the
president for bis approval. This much,
which the paper had previously
tated, was welcome news to many
eettlere in Eastern Oregon who bad
cultivated railroad lands for years
without actually residing on them.
Justice demanded that their rights
should be respected, and had the meas
ure received the president's signature,
it would have been the meane of ee
curing to settlers the fruits of their
labor, but Mr. Ellis is of the opinion
that Mr. Cleveland will pocket the
measure, aa the secretary of the inter
Jor la antagonistic to this measure be
cause of the fact that he is laboring
under tbe delusion that it would mean
an enlargement of the homestead priv
ilege. Senator Mitchell also labored
hard for Oregon's Interests, but many
of the western measures were either
Slgeon-holed in the committee room or
ofeated when they were, brougt up
for passage.
In the fall of 1893 a son of Mr. T. A.
McFarland, a prominent merchant of
Live Oak, Sutler, Co., Cel., was taken
with a very heavy cold. The pains
in his chest were so severe that he I ad
spasms and was threatened with pneu
monia. His father gave him several
large doses of Chamberlain'a Cough
Remedy which broke up the cough
and oured him. Mr. McFarland aayi
whenever his children have croup he
invariably gives them Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and it alwaya curea
them. He considers it the best cough
nmedy in the market. For sale by Dr.

The Dalle Chronicle says : Mr.

in this locality the yield this year win
be very large. We learn that some of
the peaoli tiees of an early variety in

Never was the time In the history of Co

for tbe eountv to have those paupers cut
