Ceptaln A, Henderson had a lively experience with frightened boree on Thursday of last week, which resulted in hla be ing thrown out of hie cart and rend ered unconsious for aome time. He was alio badly bruised aboat the body and arma, but no bonea were broken. The bora bad been unruly before and the Us plain had been aoouitomed to tiling a severe bridle bit, but thinking perhaps the horse had gotten over hia old tricks changed bridles with the Above reault. Tramp Badly Injursd. A tramp by the name of D. L. Khodei waa thrown from the east-bound freiuht train atUoble Monday night a diatanee of about forty leet and very seriously injured about the head and ahouldera. At the time of the preoipitation the train waa paaaing over a high trestle, a abort distance above Goble, and the man wai atanding talking to a com panion. On arriving at Coble the com panioD told the story and a part of the train crew went back and found the man in an uuconacioua condition. They took him acroat to Kalama and Tueaday he waa aent to Bt.

Fulton, of As toria, and bii trial aet for Friday, October ro. Upton a Incarceration does not seem to have affected him in the leaat, and when he itepped off the teenier greeted leveral people and Sheriff Doan with the lame familiar similes of years ago. Notwithstanding that in a few dayi he ia to be tried for hia life, be It ae cheerful n the small boy jmt out of achool. In Badger's case there ii a different picture. His general apoarance hai somewhat lm proved tinea ha wai taken to Portland, but yet ho ihowa signs of great men tat strain, and at times omplalos of great pain in bis bead. Bod bo and Upton have good appotitos and par took of hearty meals Tuesday evening. Allen Cleoton and W. II. Conyers will appear for Badger. Outrageous Chi,hois. Coos coun ty, Oregon, certainly ia entitled to the Jironiium for outrageous charges, and I is no won dor aha is bead over heels in debt. It is a splendid section to steer olear of. A destitute resident of this county by the name of John llnuckenheiiner, whose home is at Wallace, fall sick at Marshneld last fall and was sent to the MoCormack hospital, which bas a contract to keep the ooiintv Door at robber's Drinus. For 34 day's keeping, Including med- ioine, nursing, etc., Lane county is presented with a bill for 1110.60, or S3 25 per day. This was no Mire- ordinary case, as the official testify that this is the price charged the county generally. In Lane county, Dr. Russell does this same identical work for $3 per week and is glad to have the job. At Coos county charges, La no county would pay 45 per Jay, which would soon bankrupt her. The populists were eleoted in that county to reform matters. If they have made a stsrt in that direction, it must have been simply terrible when they came Into power. Curious PaopLi-Perbaps never in the history of the county has there been so many people in attendance at a session of the circuit court as during the present weok. The number of im portant cases on the docket bas not only brought to the county seat those directly interested but quite as many who are always onrious to watch the proceedings and details inoldent upon trial of so great a variety of cases. There are In attendance on court a large number of witnesses and with them comes many friends. Then the friends of those accused of crime are here to watch the outoome of trial and listen to the array of argument on either side by counsel. The court room was packed to its full capacity all day Tuesday and Wednesday, while many walked the streets awaiting an opportunity to find a vacant seat inside. This was especially true during the trial of the Severn Jsenhart case which was on Wednes day, and so boisterous became the crowd at times that Judge McBride was obliged to caution them to main tain order.. The oase is not one of a highly moral oharaoter, and as auoh cases always do, attracted an unusually large attendance. The legal battles between counsel has a faoinating effeot upon mankind whioh ii irresistable and most always enjoyed. Men are not the only ones who enjoy court room scenes. During the progress of this trial there were a number of women who listened patiently to the long drawn-out cross examination of the many witnesses, and afterward take part in diacu sing the weight the evidence should have in the case. The same is true In all Important cases. Unlike the Durrant oase, however, there was a lack of bouquets or smiles for the defendant.

The cases against Captain Larking of the Telephone and Captain Sulivan of the Potter, for running their steam boats faster than six miles an hour along the oity water front in Portland, were dismissed on the ground that there was no testimony to show that the runninx of steamboats faster than six miles an hour was a nuisance.

He Talked of River and Harbor Im provements, of Prospective Tariff Revision. Congressman Ellis, of tha First district, was In Bt. Helens during this weak looking atter the wants of the people of this section of the state. Mr. Ellis bas the interest of the whole state at heart, and at he intends soon to leave for Washington Oity to take up the duties of his office, he called upon nis iriands here to get an Idea as to the ur gent requirements of tbs locality. While In tbs elty Mr. Ellis was seen by a Mist representative, who learned from the gentleman many things of Importance and Interest to the people of tills county. What la tha prospect for the improve ment or tha Clatskanie river, was asked. Well," said the congressman, "I and my colleagues did all we possibly could Hist of securing an appropriation for the survey of the river, and the work was done soma time ago and a report made which aet forth the estimated cost of Improvement betides there was much minor information to be obtained which all takes time." Do you think the work will be resumed soon, waa asked. "Yes," replied Mr. Ellis, "I am quite sure that so soon as congress is convoued we will be able to get the Clatskanie river im provement matter before the committee on river and harbor appropriation, and I am quit sure there will be no great difficulty experienced In securing sufficient means to do the work." Where do yon Intend going from here? "Senator Mitchell and I are booked for a trip through the eastern part of the state. where we will meet the people and ascer tain what we can do for them in particular. What do you expect to accomplish in congress this session, or what is the pros peat for a revision of tariff laws, waa asked the congressman. "Well, what we would like to accomplish is a great dial, but bow much we can do is not yet known. You aee If the house of representative had It In their power to re vile the tariff schedules it would be bat short time doing it, but yon know the sen- ate la badly mlxod, there not being a repub lican majqrlty, so what the house might accomplish in this line would be only un done in the senate." Do you have hope of making any changes stall In the present tariff schedule? "Yes," replied Mr. Ellis, "we may be able to bring facts enough to bear upon the pres ident and the senate to secure better pro tective rates on a few articles, lumber in- eluded, but to expect to secure very much of a change would be rank folly."

Bunnell, Center- ville, Wash. For aale by Dr. Edwin Roes, Druggist. News is very scarce here this week, notwithstanding the fact that circuit oourt is in session. Even Johnny Cooper's dog, Colonel, hasn't fought a single battle thus far, and the ex changes fail to furnish matter to fill up with. The only thing left then for the poor reporter is to resort to bis wild fancy. This is a bad slate of af fairs, but from the appearanoe of our contemporaries we take it the com plaint is universal. Mrs. S. A. Kelt, of Pomona, Cel., bad the bad luck to sprain her ankle. "I tried several liniments," she says, "but was not cured until I used Chamber lain's Pain Balm. That remedy cured me, and I take pleasure in recom mending it and testifying to ita effi caoy." This medicine is also of great value for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the chest, pleurisy and all deep seated and muscular pains. For sale by Dr. Edwin Ross, druggist. The steamer Aslorian was launohed from the ways Saturday, at Astoria, and is now in excellent condition in side and out, says the Astorian. New paint gives her a fine appearance, and CapUiu Parker says he will spare no pains to make her one of the popular boats of the river. A largo amount of drift was cleaned on her bottom, and a large piece of 2x4, which was found attached to her bottom, probably by workmen when she was last on the gridiron, was removed. The mud and dirt in the hold was removed, and now there is no reason why the Aitorian should not make speed. This steamer will probably be plaoed on the Port land-Astoria route in a short time. Mrs. E. E. Davjg.of San Miguel.Cal., savs : "I am trvinz in a measure to repay the manufacturers of Chamber Iain's Cough Remedy for the great good their remedy has done me. For yean I was a oonstant sufferer from weak lungs and bronchial asthma. My rest at niirht was disturbed by a hack ing cough so that I felt miserable the greater part of the time. Many reme dies recommended by friends were tried, none of which proved suitable to my case. I did not experience any beneficial results until I began taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. After two bottles of the large sue had been used I am pleased to state, my health is better than it has been for yeurs The soreness has left my lungs and chest and I can breathe easily. It bas done me so much good that I want all who are suffering from lung troubles as I was, to give it a trial. For sale by Dr. Edwin Ross, druggist. CLATSKANIE. Mrs. J. A.
