' While adverse, to drawing the: at
tention iif. our" readers to. any a3verv
tiseme'j-Trhich partakes of a med
ical character, we feel more justi
fied in J overriding this objection
with relpeot.to the annoucement of
the visit' of Dr. Darrin. ; ;V
i This far lamed physician, , lately
from Palis, who has achieved each
a grfa-t reputatlonabroughout tbe
coast end the northwest the past 16
year,' has been prevailed upon, by
ttrgect request of maOy in this- vi
cinity, to visit Corvallis again, as
tfiey could not afTordby their time
and ousiness to consult him , at his
offices at Paitland The doctcr has
at last coneented to visit this city
to accommodate '' the' sick and the
afflicted, and hi cffiJa is at the
new hotel, Hotel jCorvallis.
Those wishing to see the doctor will
find it lo their advantage to consult
him while here, and during the first
part of his stay, as many require
more than one treatment i,by-electricity.
" " fe- 1' ;
He comes laden with testimonials
from tbe whole north west, and the
authentic reports of eonoe of . his
cures seem nothing; short Of mirac
ulous. So many thousands are al
ready acquainted with his mode of
treatment, it seems unnecessary to
state- that he uses little medicine in
the maioritv of cases and 'perfects
his cures by the wonderful powers
of electricity. v r
Following are a few of his recent
cures; i

Bud was supporting his head on

The janitor of the building was
notified, and he found Frank Bra-
denburg, a window cleaner, fast
asleep on the ledge. , He promptly
dragged him from his perilous poei
tion. ; A year agoBradenburg went
to sleep in a similar place on the
20th floor of the Flatiron building.
. In explanation he says that great
height does not make him dizzy,
but sleepy. He says be knows no
fear when at great height, and that
on many occasions be has taken a
nap, when he felt like, it, without
incident or accident.
When dragged ioto the room,
where he awakened to find himself
surrounded by a room and hallway
pack with shuddering spectators,
Bradenburg sleepily rubbed his ejes
and said, "What's the row about?''
Eeuo, Nev., Sept. 20. John
Stafford, ad employe of the Stan
ford Mining company of Bodie, was
literally roasted to death yesterday
in the interior of a big pipe line.
Though living when rescued he died
sometime afterward in terrible ago-
nv.
Stafford was engaged in painting
the interior of a big pipe line and
was trsing paratfine paint. In some
manner the inflammable fluid
caught fire. The interior of the
pipe was soon a mass ot names.
His fellow employes were attracted
by the smoke and the young man's
cries. It was neceesary to burst
tbe pipe before he could be rescued.
