On Tuesday evening, at tha supper table, in Tur pin's hotel, K. H. Mitchell of Vernonia and 8. D, Dennis, lite lawyer recently located here, were aeated aide by eide. After a few momenta conversation, the tact that both balled from Kansas led MKcfarft to inquire aa to DentiU' rela tive there, which revealed the (act the Mr. Dennis ia a brother ufS. 8. Dennis father of Mr. Mitchell's Oral wile. The two gentleman had never met before, although they had chaaed antelope over tbe aame plaina, courted girls, and published newepapere (n the aame towns. Mr. Dennis came west and located in Vancouver twelve yeara go, and lour yeara later Mr. Mitchell located lu Hillaboro, tiii state. Ann It Tbmi Thus. Justice Clark'a court Wednesday, in this city, waa tha scene ol quite a sensational atiit, wherein one Gen. W. Kelley was plaintiff and tils wile defendant, charg ed with adultery. Considerable prep, aration had been made lor the trial, and witnesses, the full number by law allowed, were on hand. It didn't take long, "however, to try the affair, ae it appeared that there was but one pros ecuting witness. Kulley himself, so the examination ol the prosecuting wit neasea took but a few minutes, and af ter a brief aession the wife was dis charged with a statement from her attorney that the witneaaee were on hand to prove a clear case for the woman and a very "bad case" for tbe plaintiff. The cost were taxed to the 4ainliff. - -- . Time to Won the Roads. "This is a good liana to work the roads where holes are to be tilled up and griding done, but the farmers must be allowed (o look after their farming interests while the ground is in order. Hera is tbe U-ouble witb our present system of road working. If road taxee were paid in cash tbe supervisor could have a force of men on tbe roads at work, at a time when somethiug of profit to the roads could be aooompllshed." Thus aaith tha Neberg Graphic, and it is em inently correct. By tbe lime farmers get their spring work dona tbe ground is so dry that where it is worked it fails to pack, and hence the mod the next winter. The general verdict among men who have observed, is thai road work should be done early in the spring, in order to pack well. Placed ik Position. Soma time ainoe The Mist mentioned the fact that the county bad purchased two sections oi steel paper files to be set in the large vault used fur keeping papers la. Tivese useful cases have beeu placed In position, and the work of go ing over and sorting out all papers such as probate and circuit court doc uments hus been completed, and the files are in aotual use by tha clerks. This addition of convenience and safe ty in the clerk's office was a precau tion which should have been taken long ago, for it insures not only the correct keeping of papera on file, but ia an absolute defense against fire. The genial clerks will willingly explain the modus operandi of the contrivance if yon will call on them. ArrecTS all Alike. The farmers of low lands are not the only ones in oonvenienced by the raising waters of the Columbia. Tha fishermen iu Ibis locality are a badly demoralised lot of fellows. When the season first opened fishing prospects were ood, but they continued so only a brief period, fm the hlh water oume, and now it is al most impossible to oiitch a fish. Nets are on the racks, and their owners are anxiously watching the water as it creeps Inch by inch to a mightier vol ,urce. At this data, in 1894. there was but a ten foot raise in the river, but now the gnage registers nearly twenty feet. Farmers are preparing to vacate the low land farms, and some lew have already, and should the water continue to come It la only a matter of a lew days when tbe low lauds will be entire ly inundated.

May be so, and may be not so; bo oan't tell. Should tbe water continue to raise pretty near all tbe farmers on Sauvie's island and along tbe alough will be driven to tbe mainlands by Sunday. E.G. Giltner, administrator of the estate of Merrit Pomeroy, deceased, has filed his petition for final settls ment and discharge in tbe probate court. Terry Gillem, who was taken to the hospital a couple of weeks ago, is re ported as slowly recovering, but ex pected to be out in a week or such a matter, ,.

A "Y' is being put in the wood flume at its terminus in this city, and other chanties are being made.. Just so soon as the work is completed 200 or 300 cords of wood will be flumes down. Emery Mills of Vernonia was in town Tuesday making arrangements to go to California, where he haa a contract for carrying tbe V. 8. mail on a fifty mile run. He expects to start in time to commenoe work July 1st. Advices from the extreme upper Columbia are to tbe effeoi that the suow is melting at an exceptionally rapid rata. Warm weather haa pre vailed for some time, and indications are good tor au early high water. Everything ia in readiness for the performance at the opera bouse tomor row (Saturday) night. "A Fisher mon's Luck" is an excellent comedy- drama, and no doubt tbe local com pany will preaent it in a manner doing credit to itself. "' Mr. A. B. Hammond, president of the Oregon Central and Eastern rail road, and promoter ol the Aatona-Go ble road, returned Tuesdsy from the East. More activity in railroad con auuottou in ibis county may be looked lor. A professional forger by tha name of Copeland, who baa beeu operating in the city of Portland lor the past three yeara, waa captured by detectives in that city last Monday night. He forged for no very large sums, but he kept contiuually at it. Harry West, of Scappoose, waa hi town yesteiday, having brought bis little girl to the doctor Tor trealmeut. Mr. West baa lately received from tbe East three bead ol registered Jersey cattle, whioh will prove a valuable aud attractive addition to Sunny Banks Slock Farm. Governor Lord Is reported as having said that when be is advised that any county treasurer is using tbe tax money that abonld go to the state lor any purpose other than the payment of tbe state tax, he will sea that the law ia enforced and the treasurers compelled to do their duty under it. The water in the Willamette at Ore gon City keeps raising slowly, and the fishermen are getting few fish, and moat of those oaught are eteelheada, The fishing industry ia not nearly ao bad as last year, however, for then 18 days were lost by reason of the very high water at tbe height of tbe fishing season. ;'.' A Boston paper says : "Spring is here at last. A butterfly waa caught at tbe North End yesterday." Tbia may be the proper way to catch a but terfly, but when you grab a wasp it is better to grab about the middle, quickly shifting northwesterly toward the head, or any direction to get away from the "bueinsss end." Two or three new railroads are on the eve of construction in Idaho; an other short road is proposed to be ex tended from the main line of the O. R. & N., near Tbe Dalles. In faot, all aver tbe Northwest there are feeder lines and spurs in contemplation. In tbe extreme northwest of this state ia a spleudid seolion of country, rich in everything that would offer induce ments to railroad companies, only lying idle waiting for the hand ol prov idence to bless it with transit facilities, when its worth will sblne forth to the commercial world with dazaliog bril liance. From Astoria, south, through the great dairying and lumber sec tions ol Tillamook county, up the Ne halem river, in whose valley are to be found all natural resources, then to the magnificent grain flelda of Wash ington. This is a practical course, and would prove a splendid invest ment to any company. Mr. Patrick, of Vernonia, who left last fall to spend tha winter tn Iowa, returned to this city last Friday even ing, looking exceptionally healthy and In the best ol spirits. Mr. Patrick re ports no hard times In Iowa, and is confident ol a return of better condi tions for this coast in the near future. A great number of trout have been taken from the small streams in this locality during tbia month. It has not beea an nncommon thing for one person to catch 60 or 75 in a single day. Mr. George Hall and bis friend, Mr. William Downing, are en title J to the prise so far. The olty of Astoria recently passed sn ordinance for the purpose of licens ing the gambling houses of that city. but the mayor vetoed it. The coun oil sustained the mayor's veto, and so it may be that the law against gamb ling will be enforced. Probably the first case of the kind In the history of Oregon came up be fore Judge Brink, at Prineville recent ly. Charles C. Miles was examined for challenging John C. Elder to fight a duel, and was buld to the grand jury under full bouds. Holders of claims against the state are able to secure loans from Salem banks and brokers on a basis of about 80 per cent of the lace of tbe olaima. That is, brokers are virtually discount ing the stale claims 20 per cent. The Ice cream sociul given last Sat urday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Gray was well attended. 1 he proceeds, which were for the Con gregational church, amounted to $16. Max Berg, of Warren, was in town Saturday last, and while here pro vided himself with the necessary weap ons to fight gray squirrels, of which be says, there are great numbers. Mr. A. J. Hubert, sr., who haa spent two or three months in thie oily, left for Preacoit, Aris., last Saturday, where be will remain for some time looking after mining Interests. Pretty much everything is under water along tbe Mississippi except tbe ducks, and indications point to a aim ilar condition of affairs for the Colum bia river region. Rev. Philbrook bas exchanged his Bachelor Flat property for a place In Houlton, where he will hereafter re side. The exchange was made with Mr. Sturm. Judire Doan was in town Monday and appointed O. B. Anstioe, Caesar Salari and Thomas Morris appraisers of tbe estate of Jao.b Beusch, deceased. The Sunday school service of tbe Congregational society Easier mora ing waa very much enjoyed. Adam and Cuthbert Stump, of Scap poose, were attending to busiues mat lera here last Friday. , It will now be in order for it to rain seven Sundays iu succession since it rained on asler.

The report of the superintendent of the peniten tiary for ibe quarter ending March 31, shows the number of convicts in tbe penitentiary to be 351, received dur ing quarter 45, discharged 49, died 1, transferred to asylum 1. Tbe earn ings were : For board of United States prisoners, $378.85; and for labor in the stove fotindrry, $2989.88, making $3, 308.73. Tbe receipts were $413. Tbe expenditures were. Salaries of em ployes, $4610; general expense, $4, 776.05; photographing convicts, $44 ; electric lighting, $565.52; total expen diture., $9905.67. Should be F logged. E. M. Rows, who was arrested in Astoria, Monday, charged with ebauohing several little girls, was arraigned in justice court, Tuesday, and the examination post, poned till Wednesday. If what two of the little girls say is true, Rowe will get the full extent ol the law. The youngest Pohl child, 8 years of age and a little girl named Owens, about the same age, have said that Rowe forci bly took them to his room at a hotel, and prevented them from screaming, by gaging them. After assaulting them, he threatned them with death if they should mention the affair. Two of the children are diseased. Rowe formerly lived in the state of Washing ton, where he practiced medioine. He is known here aa "Doo." He has a divorced wife and a son, the latter 14 years of age, living in Seattle. And So It Goes. Because of a citi sen being a road supervisor does not mean that everything shall sail clear with him, or that he shall have no per plexities. This faot can be attested to, perhaps, by Mr. William Wood, of Vernonia, who is supervisor of distriot No. 13. One day last week, while act ing under instructions from tbe County commissioner, so the story goes, in ex eouling some duty in resrard to a piece of road in his district, a little difficulty arose whioh resulted for tha time be ing, quite unpleasantly for him. He was arrested, charged witb assault upon one Dow, and sentenoed to thirty days in the county jail, brought to St. Helena, Saturday night, aud delivered over t the sheriff- But on Monday morning the affair took on a different ooloring, and resulted in Mr. Wood being informed that be waa not so lia ble to go to jail as he thought, aud the next thing he heard waa that he oould go borne jual aa soon as hs saw fit. It turned out that the justics had over reached his authority, and tbe whole matter appeared to be more or less ir regular. Mr. Wood ia probably at his home by this time, carrying out the instructions of tbe commissioner. ; FROM RAINIER. Desn Blsnchard left for Astoria Tuesday morning on Important business. Charles Clark bas moved Into bla new bt tase In Dobbins addition. The creamery at Bainlsr Is being made In readiness to start up about the first et Hay. Rainier Is ahead of the tiroes In tha estab lishment of re. tau rants and candy factories Captain Hoohklrk has moved Into tbe building ou the bill, opposite Judas Doan's residence. There Is soma tulk that tbe sash and door factory at Rainier will resume operations In a short time. It Is said tbat Honeymnn, DeHart A Olsnn. railroad contractors, will conduct a store permanently bern. F. 0. Winchester, of Rainier, bas laid tbe foundation for a new residence. The build- Inc will bs 10x24 with U foot posts. Many of the men who have been enjeaged in the fishing indnntry here have moved their gear to Eagle Cliff and vicinity. William Lee bas sdorned bis property by building a wall in front of his property to prevent It sliding on the railroad grade. A. L. Richardson Is ereetlng a new wagon shop on a wbarf along tbe railroad grade between Rainier and Hoeck's landing. Farmers throughout Beaver valley have been very busy of lute sowing their spring (rain and otherwise laying tbe foaudation for tbe coming harvest. Fred Trow spent several days in Portland this week. Fred never says a word, but people are Inclined to view with suspicion bis frequent visits to tbe metropolis. W. J. Deits seems right at home In lbs old place of ba!nes. supplying the wants of bis customers. . JDeits always whs sble te do business if there was any to be done. The road supervisor has-been doing some good work on tbe mountain road below If. J, Kitte rings place. Tbe road has been widened and tbe grade reduced consider able. Tbe railroad crew who have been riprap- plug on tbe grade between Rainier and Cs dar Landing are making all possible speed, snd expect to have tbe work finished by tbe middle of May. It seems that nearly every low boat on the river bas been broogbtinto service tow ing sawlogs to the Portland mills, evidently for the purpose of getting a supply of logs on band before tbe water gets toe high for towing. E. A. Anrys bss opened an ice cream and confectionery establishment in one of Mr. Delta's buildings, and the prospects are tbat be will do a good business. He is man ufacturlng bis own candies, so that a fresh supply of goods csn always be bsd. He expects to not only snpply his retail cus tomers, but sell wholesale to other dealers as well. Last Saturday he sold 62 pounds of candy of bis own manufacture. Tbe new Congregational church in this city is completed with the exception of placing the pews in poition. The building is not Isrge but of modern style, the audi torinm being in tbe shape of a half circle, with an elevation from tbe pulpit to the entrance. Tbe seats will be arranged in three sections, with four aisles, including those next to the wall. Back of the pulpit is space sufficient for the choir. Altogether the edifice Is a neat one and an ornament to the town. Tbe railroad contractors have left orders here to employ every roan that comes to town looking for work. Tuesday evening one of the sub-contractors from further down the line wss tn town, and stated to a Mist reporter that it was their intention to push the work as rapidly aa possible, and tbat every man they could get could be Bsed advantageously. Along the railroad line all the way from Ooble to Astoria there is a scene ef activity, and it Is the general opinion that the road will be completed very early in the summer. Lee Shaver at Rainier, was arrested and taken before Police Judge Clark on a charge of whipping his wife. Shaver pleaded guilty and was fined $25 and coats, amount ing altogether to 932.50 which waa paid. Tbe parties to the transaction live on a scow at Meeck's landing, and the man fol lows fishing for a livelihood. Shaver it seems, gave bis wife f 2 upon which to live while he would go down tbe river fishing. Meantime Shaver goes to Rainier and loads up with boose, and afterwards went home and wanted tbe money he had given his wife, who refused to give It to him, where upon the combat ensaed.
