The shooting occurred in Columbia county, and in all probability will be subsequently tried here. As a result of eating ice cream In which lurked ptomaines, 26 of a party of picnicers were poisoned at Fulton Park last Sunday. Those most seriously affected were : Leo, Mattie, Mamie and Burl Llthcrland, of Fulton, and Elda and Edward liunsakor. also of Fulton. These children displayed serious symp toms of poisoning about 0 o'clock in the evening, several hours after the picnic, anu temporary remedies were applied until a doctor could be secured, it took a greater part of the night to bring the sufferers out all right and all were re stored except one. The cream was bought at a store in Portland. A' few years ago there was such a vol ume of business to be transacted by the local land office and the department at Washington that it required, generally, from two to three years to secure a pat ent to lands after proof had been made. The work is well up now in the de partments ana patents are issued to claimants within a few weeks after proof is made. A list of patents for claimants arrived at the Oregon City office tbis weex, among the list being the names of the following Columbia county persons: Albert Wood. Christopher Saurveine. Joseph Netch and Giovanni Filipelli. inese parties proved up on uieir land less than three mouths ago. Last fall I sprained my left hip while handling: some heavy boxes. The doctor I called on said at first it was a slight strain and would soon be well, but it grew worse and the doctor then said I bad rheumatism. It continued to grow worse, and 1 could hardly get around to work. I went to a drutr store and the druggist recommended me to try Cham berlain's fain Halm. 1 tried It. and one- half of a 60-cent bottle cured me entirely. I now recommend it to all my friends. F. A.

The tax roll tor 1808 Is now closed and the sheriffs will begin copying the de linquent roll at once. On the original roll, including sheriff's assessments, there was a total to be collected of 42- 1(12.12, of which, up to June 20, $34 441.28 had been collected, leaving a de linquency or 7,7iu.s4. mere win oe no credits made on the roll until after the delinquent roll haa been copied, but persons desiring to pay their tax need defer the matter no loneor on that ac count, because the money will be re ceived and receipted for. Hereafter when taxes are paid, the a-per-cent penalty will lie added. The delinquent roll must be prepared for tho county court when it convenes in July, and that body will order final action in the matter. It is more than likely that at least two-thirds of the amount now de linquent will be paid in before the roll is advertised, as after that time addi tional costs will be made. The payment ot taxes this year has been very satisfac tory, resulting iu the county paying oft" about $30,000 of its debt since laat year. Probate Hattera.

Would Not Buffer Bo Again lor Fifty Times Its Price. I awoke last night with severe pains in my stomach. I never felt so badly in all mv life. When I came down to work this morning I felt so weak I could hardly work. I went to Miller & McCnrdy's drug store and they recommended Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It worked like magic, and one dose fixed ine all right. It certainly is the finest thing I ever used for stomach trouble. I shall not be without it in my home hereafter, tor I should not care to endure the sutTerinps of laat night for fifty times its price. G. H. Wilson. Livervman, Btirgottstown, Washington county, Pa.
