A LITTLE OF . EVERYTHING. A feiiture of Iowa's dairy exhibit at the St. Louis world's lair will be a statue in butter of John Stewart, the pioneer creamery man of that state. It will be life size and will be kept frozen in a glass ease through out the exposition. After picnicking under a hay Etack, a party of holiday makers near Mantauban, Fiance, left an empty ginger beer bottle standing np on the ground. The sun's rays focussed through the glats and set the stack alight. U was burned to the ground. United States Senator Allen G. Tbutman, of Ohio, did not have money enough when ke died to pay his debts, and it is deemed neces sary to sell the old homestead on which he lived for the last twenty years of his life and where his son, Allen V. Thurman, now resides to raise fnnds to meet them. "How to cure a red nose, $1.00," advertised a firm. On receipt of the fee the prescription sent out was: "Brink some more and it will turn blue." This was worth the money, as compared with the "copy ing letters at home" and the "de tectives wanted on every block." The street railways ot this coun try carried 5S,157,830 passengers last year, transfers included, and some of the passengers got seate. Two hundred sixty-five passengers were killed and 26,890 injured a casualty list almost equal to that of the steam railroads. Of the employes 122 were killed and 3, G09 hurt. Postmaster-General Payne has made the statement to the effect that fourth class Postmasters are liable io be removed for purely, political reasons, after they have completed a four-year term, and such changes are made frequently at the mere request of a senator or congressman in whose district the office may be located. Professor Irwin Rautenstrauch, of Washington University, who formerly lived in Sedalia, Kansas, has asked the courts to change bis name. Nobody in this country has ever been able to pronounce it right and the professor has got tired of being called "Rottenstraw" which was conferred upon him in his school days. K. A. Gould, a Free Methodist preacher, whoeloped with Eva flint, a 15-year-old girl, last Maicb, was sentenced at Central City, Neb., to six years in the peniten'iary. He was tried under the kidnapping law passed by the Slate Legislature after the Cudahy kidnaping in Omaha, and his conviction was the first under that statute. He had wife and five email children. The ordanco survey map of Eng land is being completed, after US years' work, at a cost of .1S2,500,000 in the last ten j-e--'. Every tree, fire plug, and so fi.it''. is shown in the map, and even Hi number of s'eps to each house is bhown. The government should now enact a law making it illegal for a householder to alter the appearance of his prop erty, otherwise the map will be out of date in 24 hours. A New York policeman recently i..p(ot n drunken chicken, and oieissaid to have "run in" an elephant some years ago, but these exploits pale beside the arrest of a rattlesnake by Patrolman Hams worth. It takes more than a rat tler to rattle a Portland cop, but the resultB might have been terrible to contemplate had a bela led reveler caught eight of the monster before the St. Patrick of Third street. Considerable newspaper comment was created, both in the United States and abroad, by the account some time ago of a fast run made on the Great Western Railroad of England, and claimed to be the fastest long-distance run ever made by a train. The run was 240 miles and the time 23-1$ minutes. Now cotnes the report of what the Amer ican railroad man is able to do. On May 21, 190'i, the Twentieth Century Limited, on the Lake Shore and Michigan Railroad made a run of 246.12 miles in 221 minutes. According to the laioat national census, the Germans in the nine teen largest cities number 2,783,- 2S2, or mere than a third of all the Germans in the country. Milwau kee heads the list in ratio, with 151,040 Germans, or 52.9 per cent of its total population. Cincinnati is second, with 139,798 or 42.9 per cent, and St. Louis is third, with 207,514 o 36.1 per cent. Boston's Germans number only 28,565 or 5 1 per cent of all its inhabitants. New York has S09.472 Germans and Chicago 439,666 about one-fourth of their population in both cases. The records of the Pasteur In stitute in Paris show that 25,642 cases of hydrophobia have been treated there in the fifteen years that have passed since inoculation for this disease began. A child from Alsace was the first patient This was in 1888. Since then each year has seen the same death per centage from hydrophobia grow smaller. From ten in a thousand of those treated, it has fallen to two in a thousand Since the discovery of Edward Jenner, upon which all inoculation against disease is based, there has been no greater discovery in the realm of medical science than that with which i he name of Past eur is associated. ' His Life Saved by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera ami uuMTiivrea Remedy. "B. L. Bver, a well known cooper o( ihie town, says he believes Chamber ain's Colic, Cholera and Dlrrhoea Remedy saved life last summer. He had been sick lor a month with what the donors call billons dysentery, and could eet nothing to do him any good until he tried tins romedy. It gave him Immediate reltei," says B. T. F.itlle, merchant, Hancock, Md. For sale by Ohas. Strang. Klamath County Sews. From The Klamath Falls Republican.

Unusual in- era and ranchers throughout the county ana me exuiuno ij pected to be extensive this year. Klamath Falls is to have another industry in the shape of amanufac tory of bricks. J. F.

The fire was well under way when discovered ai'd although i the fire companies were out noth-j ing could ba done with the ho?e, as j the fire was too far removed from j fie hydrants. This is a consider able los as the hay is worth $( a ton. The fire was still smothering vestwday and will piobably burn for a day orjso. Hrotn the Klamath Ffttli F.xnreijt, The Heryford Land and Cattle Company sold their beef cattle last week to Louis Gerber and C. Swanson Son, of Sacramento The sale includes about 1100 head. The first assignment of 640 head were delivered at toe norwjn rancn last week. The remainder, somej 500 head, will be delivered in Oc-1 tober. ' t The W. P. Miller stock farm of. 2400 acres was this week purchitB i ed by Fred and Gus Melhase; ! consideration, $12,000. They have; sold 800 acres of their old home j ranch to a Mr. Stratton, ofSsii! Francisco, for $10,000. The Mel- j base Bros, have put up 700 tons of' hay this season, own hundreds of; acres of the choicest of Wood river I valley realty, count their cattle by J the hundreds, are wealthy, pros-'; perous and among the valley's: progressive and best citizens. ' N. S. Merrill, has 3old 200 ton I I of hay to C. Swanston, of Sicra-, 1 mento, and Will Ball 350 tons to' ; L. Gerber. There has been some : movement in the sales of alfalfa j and no small amounts has been sold. But there is yet considerable ; hay for sale. The price at which it is held is said to be too high. ; The Express hopes to see the hay , ' growers and stock feeders compro- j ' mise, whereby all the cattle, with' the addition of many from the outside, will be fed during the winter in the Klamath Basin. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Jeff Riddle, a reservation resides t. Jeff is a bad one when enebtiated, and must answer for the firing of several Boots into the ceiling of tbe Dairy postofliee, Tom Barclay is another, whose combativeness when "loaded" is of ihe dime novel hero order. One day last week in China Giro, a K . Klamath suourb, be was refused a gun and forthwith proceeded to do things. Fortunately the Joss wasn't a man. Then a door or two was unhinged and a few boards rent fiom contract with the wall. Collapsing finally by over exertion be was overpowered and persuaded into the notion that to leave the house intact would be tbe better part of valor. Besides a 'ery large yield of alfalfa the Ankeny-uantrall ranch will harvest this season 20,000 bushel of grain wheat, oats and barley. Probably not a better crop was grown sn the county than hap just been cut on this ranch. It stood over lour test m height with heads four to six inches in length. S. E. Martin.the Merrill miller, places tbe wheat yield in the county at 25,000 bushel, at least one-third more than was produced last year. The farmers are holding fir two cents. This is a banner year for Klamath. Plenty of grain, an abundance m hay and large numbers of oaltle and other livestock. Best of all, theie's a demand for it all at prices that make the producers jubilant The yield of hay in Langell val ley this season was not up to the average and a few of the stoesroen there will feed elsewhere. F. D. and C. J. Swingle and G. V. Cope land have purchased hay on Lost river, where a portion of their cat tle will be taken for the winter E. R O. Williams and Banj. Abbe oos, of Langell valley, were iu tbe Falls Tuesdav evening, having rid den Sprague River valley in search of hay. The vallty's hay yield was large, but there was no hay for slip. The surplus had already been pur chased. There is no bay for sale anywhere east of Klamath Falls. All the surplus hay grown under the Henley-Aitkeny ditch, aside from that owned by Mitchell Bros, and possibly one or two others, has been sold. Messrs. Williams and Abbeloos consider themselves lucky in finding 150 tonB of alfalfa on the E. N. Colsen ranch, Lost river, for which they paid $7 00 a ton. There is h.iy yet tor saw in i uie i.asa vai- j ley and possibly some at Wood river. This later report is quite at variance with reports that have been cominz in of late. Notwith-i standing the largely increased yield of hay throughout the county and tne complained of high p-ices. H is becoming evident that few, il any, stacks will be left standing when spring grass comes again. Owes Hi hlfe to a Xeigrhiior's Kindness. Mr. 1). P. Daugherty. welt known throughout Eercer and Sumtrnr coun ties, W. Va., most likely owes his life to the kindness of a neighbor. He was almost hopelessly alficted with diar rhoea ; was attended by two physicians who pave him tittle, Ifany.ieltef, when a neighbor learning of his sepious cou dtctiou, brought him a bottle of Chant Itenain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea emedy, which cured him in less than twenty-four hours.
