A rather serious accident occurred at Warren last Sunday, when a young grandson of Mr-John Tinkham acci- denily discharged a shotgun, tbe charge striking and taking- ettect in the lace oi a young son ot Mr. itaa musen. Tbe physician expresaas the opinion that nothing serious will result, although tha boy'a face and neck were completely peppered with tine shot. A number of the shot took effect in the lids of the eyes but nooe entered the eyeballs. The fact of Oregon editors making trips back East we would consider orettv good evidence that times are not so bard on the Pacific ooast as some of the newspaper writers would nice to have us believe.

Not that it is not an appro- S rials day for the Christmas festival, ut the usual Sabbath exercises wilt prevent it being observed as it always is by family gatherings, trees for the children, etc. Of course we must have Monday. With the Columbia river completely filled with ice and navigation almost entirely stopped, tbe spectacle is to be dreaded. It has been impossible to naviuate the Columbia above the Willamette for a week or more, and were it not for the Willamette slough, which is free from ice, it would be al most impossible for steamers to oper ate between Portland and Astoria. To one who had never seen the great float- In c maaaea of ice before it would ap- . ....... . i -. pear an impossibility lor a Bteamooai to lind lis way mrougn h. iu uuu ditions are serious, and at the press hour Thursday Utile relief seems to be in store for some time yet.

There is a task on hand in the sher- nfRna liich im mtllinv fnrth both r, .a m uiuwv n f patience and labor, and which demands trie Closest attentiou iu uruer u auiu almost irreparable mistakes. For even piece of laud sold by the sheriff at the recent tax sale there has to be a certifi cate of sale made, and in this work it ia necessary to segregate all tbe ailm ent funds to which taxes on tbe cer tain piece of land belong, and it found to be an undertaking that taxes the perseverance of those engaged at it. There are 107 of thoee certificates to be made for the 1897 roll and 175 fornravioua vears. The sheriffs are endeavoring to have this work cam' pleted by the time the commissioners meet, early in January, ins worn in that office, as well as in that of the olerk and assessor, is each year becom ing of a greater volume and more com' plicated. St Helens was infested last Satur day with train pa. and many of them farad first-rate in their searcnes ana anneals for "something to eat, please There should be little sympathy enter tainsd for that element, yet al the urns time it is hard to turn a man awav who asks for food.
