K again becomes onr painful duty to rcco;d another 1 those awfiil tragedies which altvayi send a thrill of horror Hke an electric shock djroligli a eom mtiuity. On Saturday altcrnoou of Inst week, a party of men were jrath--em) at J!;i -U Head Saloon, on Ames' Creek, near Sweet Home Valley in this county, engaged .in a shooting matoii for beef. Among the number assembled were three brothers named Shirts, and a man named Van Einer 6on. During tlie progress of the match, a ijiiarrel between Emerson and James Shifts grew out of the load ing of a un, and the men proceeded to fight it eut in the old style. In the course of the melee, Shirts knocked or Oirew Emerson down, jumping upon Mm, and v;s giving him "Hail Coluin 1ia"with Instils. Thistlidn't seem to suit Emerson, who drew a large knife and commenced .rogging Shirts there with. Shirts jumped up and ran, when Emerson also arose, and ran after him. A younger one of the Shirts (ben threw n lock at Knierson. who whirled around, and. Hi Shirts being near him, he went for him, tabbing him just over the left breast. Hi then struck Emerson a blow wltlin stick he held in his hand, witli sufH cjent force to break his neck, unci kill him almot instantly. In a few min utes thereafter Hi also died, from the wound inflicted by the j knife in .the hands of Emerson. This seems to be the facts in the ease as near as we amid get at them. The younger Shifts the one who threw lite roe! , at least was arrested and brought in; i the city on Monday, We believe the two men that were killed were unmar ried. Joseph Shifts had a preliminary examination before Judge Tandy, on Monday, and was 'bound over in the mini of $2,000 to answer at, the next term of the Circuit Court, on charge of manslaughter, the evidence not thowing clearly whether the death of Emerson, was the result of the blew iflom the stick in the hands of Hi Shirts, or from the fbrca of the roek drown by Josepji Shirtn. On Monday NfariT The 'members at the Albany lirnss Hand secured a oohveyaiuv, and were driven out to the resilciice of Mr, Ilaiclit, some six miles from the city, where they sere naded the newly wedded pair. Mr. and Mrs. Dawson, in good stylo. Of course the boys; were treated hand somely, aa Mr. and Mrs. Haight are known far and wide for their hospital ity and large lieartcdncss. trQi;Ni.

At a meeting of tlie Farmers' Ex cursion Part', held in Astoria hist Fri day, the following preamble and reso lutions were adopted: Whereas, W, citizens of Linn County, Oregon, have just completed an examlnitPon ot the harbor and sur roundings of Astoria, and are con vinced beyond n reasonable doubt of the following named facts; therefore. llemilrori, That in our opinion there,, are good harbor facilities for the larg est class of sen-going vessels at Astoria. l; ylrri!.

If a man has a business appointment be is very apt to take his hat and be punctual in meeting the engagement. If a woman says she will be at a certain place at a certain time to at !end to business matters it would be dangerous for anyone to sit down and wait till she came. She' begins the day talking about the matter. She wonders bow the thing will be? Whether the other par ty will forget the appointment!' What she had better wear ? How she shall comb her hair? Finally, alter hurrying around for two hours and getting half dressed, sombodv calls hi to gossip awhile, and slops until it is too late to attend to business that day. "Another day will do jusr as well," the woman says to herself, and so perhaps a week passes before she brl Jgs herself to attend to a little task which when begun only requires fif teen or twenty minutes time. If men delay And put oil' from day to day, it is not because they are both er d about the many little things which trouble wouicn, especially what they shall wear. 1'ew incn ib-ess iiftciier tlmn once a day, excepting Sundays, and that is the reason why many men dread to have Sunday come. The elaborate combing, brushing, twiMing, curling, brakliug, puffing, crimping and whaling which keeps women'! nnus over their heads at the expense of their backs, for an hour or two at a time. Is much simplified liyja majority of men, who feel just as; wen if they run then- lingers through their hair ami cull it combed. Such a "short entry" is even better for the hair than the dally application! Of dyes, pomades and sweet-scented washes, with which fops and dandies insult Iheir beads, and cultivate mild ness. If women would invariably make themselves presentable when they get up in the morning, and not. be in the habit of sllp-shoddlng it around as long as there is no danger of somebody calling in and Bitching them in frizzled neat!, soiled dress ami general untidy Cfliiilltloh, it would not he such ftu eftort to keep a business appoint meiit, (for like men they could nut on their lints and go out without further fuss-or delay.
