Met at McFarland's School bowse
Friday. Man 14th, 1878, Quite a
number wens present Among others,
there were three tfocfe solicitors, who
went awav with a smile on their (Roes,
as nearly, if not quite all present, took
toek in the Astoria ami Albany Com
pany. After the HStial routine of busi
ness, tiie Club proceeded to elect by
lialiot one delegate to attend the State
Convention, to be held in Salem,
April 10th. 173, which resulted in the
election of A. S. I.ooney. We recom
mend that eadi and every other Club
in the State do likewise, that the State
Convention may receive honors sneh
as did the Linn county Convention, as
being the most harmonious and largest
gathering assembled at the Court
House tor some time. Let us move
.steady hut sure, is the plan that we
have adopted, and everything goes well
with the Club in District No. 36.
GEO. F. SIMPSON. See'y.
Pcttv Larceny. A young man by
the name of John Judkins. about 18
years of age. last week came to the
conclusion that he would have a ride,
and as it was after train time, and no
steamer at the wharf, he did the next
best thing, went to the Albany Ferry
and' finding a skiff that suited his tancy.
lie immediately got into it and "took
off down the river." Arriving at Mr.
Wells', some twelve or fourteen miles
below this city, he thought he had gone
far enough so he tied the boat to the
bank and left it there for future use.
Siieriff Parker was made acquainted
with the young man's conduct, and
started immediately after him, and
learning of his wliereabouts, he soon
lupjied him, and returned to this city
with the youngster last Tuesday. He
was brought before Esquire Carothers
on Tuesday, confessed to taking the
skiff and was sent to the county jail
J'or thirty days.

it Santiam Canal is to tie dug, flamed,
and got ready for business by the first

where it will be seen that the Com
pany will receive bids, for work on the
Canal, up to the 15th day of April
next. Read the ad., and then go for
the chicken pie.

IjfSASE. A young lady by the name
of Biodget. of Benton enmity, was
taken down to the Asylum at East
Portland, last Monday, by her brother,
he being the only person that could
manage her. I'pon arriving at Port
land it was ascertained that the papers
iiad not leen made out properly, and
the young man had to return to this
city with his unfortunate sister, to hove
the papers got up in proper shape, lie
started again for the Asylum on Wed
nesday. Keuoious. The U. P. Presbytery,
of Oregon, will meet at Willamette
Church, on Thursday. April 3d, at 2 P.
M. There will be an opening sermon
by the Moderator, and other devotion
al services, on Thursday and Friday.
The third quarterly meeting of the
M. E. Church begins on to-morrow at
2'.; P. M.
The Goveksob Gkoveb. We did
not get down lo the lauding in time to
givo the new steamer an examination,
but from those who are competent
judges, we learn that, she is a staunch,
clean built boat, with as "good engines
as wereever put into a boat." She made
good time on the up trip, and when
thoroughly in working trim will be
hard to "pass." She is a 300 tinner.
We wish her abundant success,
FisiiDiO Our streets liave been al
most entirely deserted by the boys, for
the last day or two, owing to tlte fact
that "fishing time ban come," and
numbers may be seen daily, armed
with a long pole and a cup of bait, en
route for the river.
Roads drying rapidly.
Entertainment at the Instttutk. !
The literary entertainment given at j
the Albany Collegiate Institute last j
Friday evening, was largely attended, j
anil deserves more than ordinary
praise. The programme consisted of
choice selections of miisio, of deck- (
mation. recitation oration, tableau, I
literary aer, and farce. These were j
Uniquely arranged in the happily con- j
eeived programme, and while all of
the performers were good in the exe
cution ot the part or parts assigned
them, some Succeeded in reaching the
excellent. The "Opening Chorus."
by a select number of pupils, headed
by President Warren, was well sung,
eliciting hearty applause, as did every
performance thereafter. The "Saluta
tory," by Will. Simpson, was an ex
cellent production, entirely appropri
ate. Barring a manner of speech
somewhat too rapid and some mistakes
in pronunciation, the delivery was
quite pleasing. A "Solo and Quar
tet" "Nellie Mac." was snug by Kila
Barrows, Cora lrv lie, Prof. Sox and
Pres. Warren. Miss Barrows sang
the solo', MUs Brown playing the in
strument. "Very sweet" remarked j
a lady near us, and so thought we.
An oration, by O. H. Irvine, in the I
subject matter and arrangement, was
extra good, but marred slightly by an j
imrjetftct committal, and an awkward j
gesticulation. A piano solo, by Miss
Maggie Poster "Fisher's Hornpipe,
with Variations," suited our musical i
ear to a dot time was good and the j
execution rapid. Declamation "Re
grilus'tothe Carthagenians,"' by I. P.
Hackleman, gave good satisfaction.
The young gentleman lias a good
voice, and las expression in the main
seemed appropriate. Solo and uuar-
tet "My Darling has Fallen Asleep."
was sung by Misses Mouteitb and Can
non, Messrs. Westlake and Darby.
Miss Minnie Monteith taking the solo.
Miss Alexander played the piano. The
music gave good satisfaction. "After
a CrastinaMofi of a sennight at the
Habitance of my Cogitation," a eon
catenation ol verbosity by R. A. Fos
ter, was too much for our intellectual
ptjispicncity to diagnosticate. We
suppose it was a prescription for the
Epizootics, and was ably doctrlnated.
The College Journal, read by its edi
tor, .1. T. Tate, contained many ex
cellent productions, which were well
read by -Master Tate, though a little
more spirit liiftised into the reading
would have improved it. A piano
dli,jt"0 Concento, with varia
tions," executed by Misses Tate and
brown, was a difficult piece, skilfully
performed. The, young ladies are both
accomplished artists on the piano.
ReeitJitioii -'Angels ot Buena Vista,"
by Miss Fennle Hamilton, was well
commit teil : and though the fair shak
er possessed a clear enunciation and
pleasing voice, she failed to persouify
the intense tragic element of the piece.
"Hie Sea versus the Land." were two
well written essays, written, by Miss
es Libhle Althouse and Jennie Cooner.
They both Indicated careful research.
Duet-"Mother, Oh. Sing me to
Re t." by Pres. Warren and Miss Cora
Irvine, was musical. Oration, by
J unes Darby, on "War." was an ex
cellent production, well delivered. In
strumental Trio. Piano Duet and Vi
olin, by Pres. Warren on the violin,
and Misses Brown and Barrows on the
plano,executlng "Grand Fantasia," on
Moc nig Bird, was a richness of har
inoulus melody. The audience requir
ed iu repetition. Recitation "Fit.
James and Rtxlerlc Dim." by Miss
Libbie Halbrook, was well delivered.
The graceful speaker was quite self
possessed in her manner. A Tableau,
we omitted to mention in its place,
representing "Queen Isabella present
lug her diamonds to Columbus," wa
a pleasing, if not an exact representa
tion of that event. Miss Trice, as sa
bella, looked queenly. A Farce "We
are All Teetotalers," was the most
perfectly acted " funny piece" we
have seen since we left "Suckerdom."
Hnckleinan, as Jedediah Maple, Miss
Finlayson, as Aunt Sarah Jane, Miss
Foster, as linldey, as we got it, and
the gents who acted the other charac
ters the two lubberly hoys and the
visiting nephew, were each above the
average in the rendering of the char
acter assumed. The representation of
"Aunt Sarah Jane," was especially
excellent. The hearty laughter that
roared from the audience during the
continuance of the piece, was a flat
tering testimonial of its success. This
was followed by a duet "Come Sing
your Lesson," by Pres. Warren and
Miss Barrows, which was rich. A

Miss Clara Price, closed the exercises.
This was a choice production, ricli in
thought and graceful in style, and ex
ceedingly well spoken. It was an ap
propriate ending to so good an enter
tainment. Short-handed Is what's the mat
ter of us this week, sending us to the
