He is having it overhauled and treated to a coat of paint an J intends to open a saloon in the building shortly. B. L. M'iriison, one of the leading capitalists of Vancouver, and an old-time friend of Assessor Bradley was in Oregon City last Friday viewing our factories and water power. He was greatly pleased with the evidences of prosperity manifested and noted many improve ments since his last visit to our city. From the Hillsboio Independent it is learned that a Chautauqua circle has bee a formed in that place with a flatter ing membership and good prospects. Toe officers are, Mrs. Elliott, president; John M. Brown, vice president; Mae Clark, treasurer and Rose W ilcox, sec retary. Jas. Shelley who baa been working under Foreman 8 w afford on the Molalla road, was severely hurt last week by a piece of a rock flying and bitting him in the eye. The wound was not dangerous, though he had a close call for losing an eye, and will soon be able to be at bis work. A meeting was held at Ely to organize a Christian Endeavor union at that place. Keys. G. Sykes and J. W. Cowan were present. Signatures to the union to the number of fifteen were ob tained and a committee of four, viz. Mrs. S. J. Mack, Mr. J. 8, Devol and Mrs. Moran was appointed to canvas for mora members. Another meeting was called to meet at 4 P. M. at the Congre gational church to elect officers and transact other business. changes in location hy business linns of this city. C. G. Huntley will remove from his present location to the Cautleld block, occupying the corner room ad joining the hlley. In this new location he w ill have more room and far better facilities for making an attractive appear ance w ith his goods. Mr. Huntley, by his industry and careful busines meth ods and thorough advertising work, has built up a moat tlattcriir business. He lully deserves his prosperity tor it is well earned. W. A. Huntley will remove his sure to the room adjoining the one to be omt pied by his brother's drug store in the Caufield block. With hi change in lo cation Mr. Huntley will largely increase his stationery and notion stock, and will have a store of which Oregon City may well he proud. In order to accommodate his many up-town customers he w ill put a stock of stationery and a stand for the daily paper, magasines, etc., in the postoflice building, w here he will have a competent person in charge. From a small beginning fouryears ago Huntley's Book Store has grow n to be one of the lending mercantile establishments of Oregon City and its success is a compli ment to the foresight and energy of Mr. Huntley. Another firm to remove to the Can field block is that of tilass 4 Smyth, the clothiers. They will occupy the third room and intend to tit up a clothing store that will be a credit to Oregon City. Mr, Glass, the managing partner, In the short time that he has been in Oregon City, has proved himself to be an up right, pushing, business man and under his guidance their trade will grow against all opposition. A. W. Schwan will, as soon as it is vacant, remove his stock of plumbing goods and tin shop to the Caufield build ing now occupied by Huntley's drug store. Mr. Schwan will then take in a partner, A. D. Putrow. The new firm will pnt in a complete line of hardware in addition to the stock now carried by Mr. Schwan and will strive fairly for their share of the trade in that line. In the three years that Mr. Schwan has been in Oregon City he has shown him- sell to be a gained the confidence of all who have come in contact with him. Of his pros pective partner he needs no introduction for he has been raised in this city and Mr. Putrow's friends feel confident that be will niet their expectations as a usiness man capable of doing his part to make the future of the new firm a success. For a Telephone Service. Oiegon City now bidshir to number among its other advantages a telephone service. Mr. J. H. Thatcher, manager ot the Oregon Telephone & Telegraph Co., was in this city Monday and inter viewed a number of the leading business men with regard to putting in a telephone system for Oregon City. He met with very flattering encouragement and will in the near future make a systematic cam a of the town for his company. ! Mr. Thatcher's plan is to, if he can secure a sufficient number of subscribers, p it in an exchange in connection with the long distance l'nes now ojrated by his company from this city, so that the patrons can have, when desired, con nection with Portland and other points. The instruments to be used will be the latest improved and are guaranteed to give satisfaction. The use oi the instru ment will be put at $2.50 per month with no extra charge for switching, thus making the cost as low as to be had in any city in the United States. The advantages of a telephone system are manifold. In addition to being a necessity to business houses and a needed convenience to the residences it would fill the place of a fire alarm service for our city, which latter duty ought to be sufficient inducement to in sure the placing of a telephone in each of the principal residences of Oregon City. There are but few cities in the United States the size of Oregon City w ithout a telephone service and our people are not to be behind the rest of the country in securing what has become to be necessities to modern life. the burning building. The O. C. H. Co. No. !!, came by way of the Madison street bridge but the flames by that time were heyond the tlicniens' control. They im mediately formed a bucket brigade and saved the woodshed and otlter buildings adjoining the bouse. Everything on tiie lower t!oor was saved but the con tents of the second floor was a total loss. There was no insurance on the build ing and the loss is estimated to W about flOOO. Mrs. Straight will commence the erection of four-roomed dwelling for the winter and will add two other rooms in the early spring. The following article Is clipped from the SHkam Review ot October 1ft: "Rev. G. W.

Last Saturday evening the home of Mrs. Ivy Straight, in the northeastern part of the city was burned to the ground. The fire is supposed to have caught from the kitchen chimney. The family was at supper and did not know of their dan gerous situation until their neighbors gave the alarm. The fire companies responded, all reaching the scene of the fire about the same time, but could render but little service in quenching the flames as the nearest hydrant was about four blocks from the fire.

Betsy Puttcraoii Bonaparte, the sister-in-law of an emperor, was born In Baltimore, and after living inituy years abroad returned to her native laud, where she passed the last year of her life. One of the old lady's crack storiea in her latter days was of a Icmou in eti quette given her by the black butler of her host. At breakfast alio motioned to bitn and banded bim her cup, wish ing a second cup of tea. Uncle Bob, lustead of taking the cup to Ins mistress at the head of the table, put it down with a great flourish on the sideboard. "But 1 wanted another cup of tea," said Mine, Bonapnrtu. "Did yon. mum?" blandly asked Un cle Bob. " You see, mum, you put your spoon in do saucer, an that mean yon doan' want no mo' tea. When yon wants some mo' tea, do e'rvet way la to pnt de spoon in do cup like di beah, " and I mie Bob gravely illustrat ed the "c'rect" method of procedure. The family were on thorns, expecting an outbreak from the sister-in-law of an emperor, although there is no doubt that , a black butler in his own baili wick could face un emperor himself, but Betsy was only amused and laughed heartily. After SO years of money getting and money saving, she realized in the lat ter part of her life how futile it til was and expluimed grimly, ''Once 1 had everything but money I Now I have the! nothing but money."

K. MATT HIES. Oregon City, Oregon, Oct. 18, lrt. A Rare of (;iunt t'aniilliala. Unlikely as it may seem to some who read these lines, it Is a fact neverthe less that there is an island in the gulf of California, not more thun 60 miles from tho Mexican mainland, which is inhabited by the remnants of a race of giant cannibals. This startling discov ery was made hy a west coast natural ist eurly in 18(11 and has since been confirmed by both United States and Mexican explorers. Mr. McNatnara, the scientist referred to, has a photo graph of one of the men found by him on the island, that individual, although not one of the largest, being over 7 foot iu height. The island upon which they were found is known us the island or isle of Leri, and the original discoverer says that there is every evidence of can nibalism among them. St. Louis He-public.
