John McDermott, a saloon keeper
of Jeffereonyille, Ind., who was
constantly under the influence of
liquor, ,ent to his mother-in-law's,
where his wife was staying, having
left him because of constant ill treat
ment, and asked his wife to return
home. He returned shortly after
with a navy revolver and shot at
his wife who was nursing a babe.
The ball struck the babe in the
back of the head, going through it
and into the breast of the mother,
killing the babe and probably fatally
wounding its mother. This hap
pened last Monday.
A. J. Duffer writes to the Omgo
niun, from Chicago, saying to the
farmers of Oregon and Washington
erritory that he feels safe in assur
ing them that they will receive a
fair compensation for all their sur
plus hams, bacon and lard another
year. There are several causes for
this, among which may be men
tioned the new arrangements of
railroad tariff rates to Chicago.
Under these new rates corn now
brings forty-five to sixty ceuts per
bushel, while under the old rates of
tariff it commanded but from eleven
to seventeen cents per bushel. This
being the ease, the corn is being
shipped to market, instead of being
fed to hogs, used as fuel or left ly
ing in the orib, The deticiancy in
the pork market of Chicago np to
June was 85,000 barrels. JThe
deficiency in other markets is also
great, therefore it is believed pork
will be in such demand that it will
pay to ship it from Oregon,
Hermits are becoming common.
The latest has been discovered in

; of remaining five years. ITis hair,
which is dark, extends to Ins waist,

his jaw that it is impossible to dis-
i tinguish h features, His clothing
has not been changed since lie left
er"1ont h Rhlrt resembling the

meat ; has three horses and sixteen
head of cattle. He is a man of
some education, and holds on to his
log, his bark shanty, his dirty
clothes, and his 160 acres of land,

Consumption Curable. - Dr.
Win. Kock, of Berlin, well-known
from his long investigations in the
domain of modern surgery, and
from his treatise on shot-gun frac
tures, has discovered a new method
of treatment for consumption. It
consists in healing up the affected
portions of the lungs by injections
of iodine, so as to check the process
of festering, which is the origin of
the disease. The treatment has
been tested in the great hospitals of
Berlin within a short time, smong
others at the Royal Charity, in the
presence of the most eminent sur
geons All the reports of the cases
in which this, treatment has been
administered are favorable, and hold
out a promise of a complete cure.
For many years t Dr. Koch has
tried the experiment with animals,
having tested it with more than
i liree hundred, at a vast outlay of
time and. money.
Inhekitknce of Appetite for
Alcohol. A striking instance of
the kind has been recently brought
to our knowledge. A lady, wife of
the Mayor of an Atlantic city, was
a confirmed inebriate, and in spite
of the most assiduous efforts made
by her husband and others to restrain
her, continued to drink until her
life tell a sacrifice to the indulgence.
Her grandmothers were intemperate,
and they both died of drunkennss.
Several of her brothers were inebri
ates. She had a child, a daughter;
who exhibited in childhood a mark
et! appetite for strong drink, and
who drank to intoxication whenev
er she had the opportunity. This
child died at the age of six years.
During her brief lite she was known
to have been repeatedly druuk. ho
inveterate was her appetite for li
quor that she resorted to the most
cunning tricks in order to procure it
tricks such as would do credit to
the ingenuity of an adult. Paoifio
