Hammond, proprietor of the Aslorla-Ooljl railroad, returned mat even Ing from two montha1 visit In New York, and, with Mrs. Hammond, la registered at the Portland, according to Sunday' Ore Konlaa. Mr. Hammond announoe that work on the propoaed road to connect As torla by Mil with the outalJe world will now be pushed with energy, and that car will be running by November of next year. While In New York, Hr. Hammond pur chased the ateet rails for the entire road, which will be ahlpped from England. Io reply to Briticism paaaed on hla purchaae of the raili In the English market, be a aid that be let ed a targe amount of money by doing ao.lwhlrh, he thought, ought to be sufficient reaaon to a buainaaa man. "I hear Uiat aomo doubw bare been ex preeaed about my alncerlty In building the road," (aid Mr. Hammond. "It mattera little to roe what la aald, aa long aa I know what la going to be done. I inran to finlth the road, and have the momy to do It. To tlx who are continually advancing llieorlee aa to who la backing me, I can only aay that I wouldn't be surprised to bear that Ih Hothaohllda or Vanderbltta are furnishing the money, Ily April 1 neat, 13(10,000 will have been expended on work of conatrustlon by the company.

Lloyd Montgomery, who is now In the Albany, Or., jail awaiting execution for the murder of his parents and Daniel Mo Keroher, which will occur on January Slat, waa visited by an Oregonlan reporter last Saturday and told anew story of the crime, a part of which Is glvsn below t "I am going to bang on January 81," he Said, "and there I nothing I can say to you that will make me any friends or set aside the death sentence. But I would like very much to have the people know that am not such a bad boy as I have been made out by the lawyer and newspapers. I did not kill my lather or mother) but I did kill McKcroher. He shot my father and mother, and would have killed me, had not had a fight with him and shot blm be fore he csuid do It. "Of course," continued the boy, after a moment's thought, "no one believe my story now, for, I am told, I admitted killing all of them, when my bead waa wrong. Now I feel ail right, and my head is clear, and I can say honestly that I only killed M cKercher. But I am ready to die, and the aoooer It Is over the better. I will have mors peace in the next world than in this, the way I'm situated. 'Everybody thinks I killed my parents, and, even if I were free, I would suffer more than death by knowing that everybody thought I .ought to hang, I don't see any way to establish my inno cence, and have given up thinking about It. Everything is against me, and I want to die. I don't want to go to tbe peniten tiary. What' th use?" "You thought you were to hang Decern. bar 81, didn't you?" asked the reporter. "Yea; I made a mistake about the date, You see, I took so little Interest In the exe cution that I only noticed the date, '81st. I supposed, of course, they wonld bang m this month. Io fact, wben I left the court- room after tbe judge sentenced me, al though be didn't set the date at the time, I supposed I was to be banged right away off tbe earns day. I waa surprised wben told that I bad some tin to prepare for death, and, when informed that I waa to die on tbe 81st of January, I thought they meant December, and was spending my time a comfortably as possible until next Tuesday. But I am to see tbe beginning of th next year, anyway, and I guess It 1 just well." "What do you think will become of you wben you dief" waa asked. "I don't really know wbat you mean, replied th condemned youth, with a puz zled expression ou his face. "Do you believe In future punishment! was a more terse question, which the pris oner readily understood. Oh," he replied, carefully choslng his words, "the Hiblessys that there is punish- ment In store In the next world for those who ooruiult crime iu this." "Don't you have some fear about HT" "No; why ahould IT I am innocent of any serioua crime. I never murdered any one, and I killed McKerchcr because he killed my parents. I won't sudor for caus ing his death. I don't know anything about the next world, but I don't fear it in th least If I ' bad killed my parents though, I ahould." Montgomery discussed tbe hereafter with evident Interest, and If he fear to meet his Ood he does not show it. He showed con- aidcrabl intelligence, and for a yontb whom no one believes Innocent of thecrime for which be Is convicted, shows wonderful nerve la talking about it. CIKCUIT COURT.

The Bailey estate, of which mention waa made in these oolumns a short time ago, is still attracting attention. As was stated then, W. J. Bice, guardian of the minor heir, was cited to appear in the county court and show cause why he should not be removed. The guar dian has now filed an appeal from the mandates of the county court to the circuit court. The matter, however, will come up in the probate court next Monday or Tuesday. In the meantime W. J. Deits, one of Bice's bondsmen, hns filed a petition with the clerk of the county oourt asking to be released from said bond. CLATBKAKIK. Tbe pubiio schools will begin agsin next Monday after a vacation of two weeks. Miss Leota Merrill took advantage of tbe vacation to Visit in Portland this week. Miss Fannie Burns and Vivian Tich enor returned Monday from their visit to Astoria. Tbe Chief last week says one dealer here sold 600 pounds of candy about Christmas, Wbat a 1 lot of candy that is. Professor Whitten, after spending Christmas here, left for a visit to his mother at LaCamas, Wash., tbe last of the week. Bev. Bryan returned last Friday and meeting are being held every evening in the church with good at tendance. Now we do put on city airs. A tele graph message was received from Port land last Sunday and handed to a lady in church, jnst as they do it in New York or Chicago. Ed Wilcox, while walking outside of his house lastSunday morning slipped and fell, dislocating his wrist. Ed's limping gait reminds him of a broken leg some years ago, and this injury makes him think be is doomed to misfortune. Miss Abbie Bryant and Misses Mary and Nora Conyers left us last Friday. one for her school and the others for Oregon City, whore they are making their borne. The ladies were com pelled to go out to the Beaver in a small boat as the steamer could not get up to this place on account of the high water and rapid current in tne river. The departure of the old year and advent of the new was celebrated by the ringing of bells, shooting, and such other noise a could be made by ma terial at hand, including tbe triangle suspended at tbe City hotel, all of Inch wakened sleepers to the fact that 1896 was coming on time. Vocal music lent its assistance, and the strains of "Good-by, Ladies, We're Going to Leave You Now," were wafted on tbe breezes in the intervals of tbe more noisy demonstration. Norman Merrill returned from a visit to San Francisco laat Monday. He was gone something over two weeks and in going took passage by steamer for an ocean voyage, being one out of a very few of ZW passengers that did report for meals wbila en route. He took occasion while cruising about tbe city to visit tbe fortifications for coast defense, and was undoubtedly impressed by tbe sight of tno big dyn amite guns he found there ready for action. lie feels that San Francisco is pretty safe from foreign invasion by water, and returna with the belief that our country is getting well prepared to take care of itself. The office of city marshal is not witbout its disappointments, as was illustrated in the last pig capture by that official, assisted by one ol our good citizens. Two wandering and careless pies were violating a city or dinance last week, and in consequence were driven into the pound to be cared for until redeemed by their owner or until sold for expenses of impounding and feed during ten days. They proved to be very peculiar pies. They seemed satisfied with their quarters as long as they got enough to eat, but they were fooling the marshal and de vising plans for escape, and one morn ing when the marshal went to care for them tbey were not there. One twelve inch board, eight feet high, that had made part of the fence, was not there either, but an open space was left where it had been. The marshal can not settle in his mind which pig knocked the board off, and as the pigs oanuot be found, it is not likely that he will find out soon. The desired in formation will be thankfully received by tbe marshal or recorder. Election Contest. The election contest case of W. T. Muir against W. T. Hume, for the office of district at- tosney in Portland, will be commenced Thursday, before Judge McBride, who will bold court in Judge McGinn s de partment, says the Oregonian of Wednesday. As the ballots are all to be recounted, the trial will probably consume about one week. There are 75 election precincts in the county, and there were five election officers in each of these. If all are examined as witnesses at any length, tbe case can not be tried in a week. It is not probable, however, that it will be ne cessary to examine more than one of each election board, as to the custody of the ballots and their delivery to the county clerk. MARRIED.

A Noisy Noise. Tuesday night about 12 o'clock the inhabitants of St. Helens were awakeued from their slumbers, that is those who were slun bering, by a tremendous noiae made with bells, horns and steam whistles, It was but a few minutes until people, upon second thought, remembered that the new year was dawning, and a later thought was that there waa great rejoicing that the year 1895, with all its attendant trials and tribulations was a thing of the past. The noise, without question, was sufficient to drive the evil spirit wbich baa seemed to hover over the country during tbe recent past into obscurity, and we hope it will return again no more forever.
