The only place to get one- is at W. H. MeFarland's, next to the Bank. s The iC. Y. Herald says new potatoes are fine ''and cut pompadour." Another vil lainous inkslinger says : "yes,- partaters ahvuz had a 'eye' to fashion !" Itcertainly is a fact that last year they wore Murphy jackets and were dressed in various styles ! Last Monday, School Director, David Thompson, called at eacli of the several public schools, and made a speech to the scholars at each place. Our new Board of School Directors are giving more attention to school matters than any board we have ever had, and they deserve credit therefor. Directors to Elect. There will be a meeting of the stockholders in the Grange Union of Albany, at their office in this city, on Monday, May 28th, to elect seven direc tors to serve the Union one year. And don't you forget it. , - Prince Williams, ot Piuss-ia, is hard up again. Taking pity on his extremity, gen erous hearted Victoria, England's Queen, lias just given him an order for a Garter. It is cxp'-ftcd that the Empress Eugenie will also ante up with a pass to the circus and a paper ol hair-pins. . We forgot to mention the entertainment given by the public schools two weeks ago, at the Court House, but it was a way up entertainment nevertheless, and the build ing was crowded to its utmost capacity by an appreciative audience. The entertain ment was certainly a credit to teachers and scholars. m - Elocution. One of the most thoroughly enjoyable entertainments given in this city which we have had the pleasure of attend ing for many a day, was that given by Prof. lAT. Henderson, at the College Chapel on Saturday evening last. The Professor Was assisted by some of the Very best talent in the eity Mioses Mary Pow- ell, Ilettie Miller, Fannie Strahan, Ianra Tate, Hettie Thompson and Maggie Foster. As an elocutionist Prof. Henderson has few superiors, and any entertainment in which he takes a part, is certain to be a success. '"The Bells" recitation by the Professor Was the most perfect piece of elo cution we ever heard but why particular ize, when eacb and every piece was a gem ! The Professor should never tail to have a full house iu this city. Each one of the Prof's, assistants vied with each other In the excellence of their productions. "The Red Jacket," by Miss Mary Powell, was spoken with such effect as to bring tears to many eyes, while Miss Hettie Miller's "Bridal Pledge," was magnificently ren dered indeed. The instrumental solos by Mises Laura Tate and Fannie Strahan, and the duett by Misses Thompson and Foster, were excellently weir rendered. It was certainly the finest intellectual treat our people have been permitted to enjoy for a long time. Give us more of such ele vating and entertaining tieats. ; Insane. Sheriff Herren took to the asy lum at East Portland on Monday an insane person named Mrs. Elizabeth Williams, who has been residing of late at Sweet Home. Mrs. Williams went to the asylum from this county about eighteen months agj, slaying some six months before being pronounced cured. Mie is aDout do years of age, and is the mother of four living children. - m ' Pond's Extract. The great family medicine of the age differs from all adver tised preparations, in the fact that it is a standard medicine of recognized merit, and has for many years been treated of in med ical writings. It has been the chief , reli ance of thousands of families for all the minor ailments, accidents of casualties that have occurred among them. As an allevU dtor of pain and a promoter of permanent cure it has no equal.- Ask your druggist about it. .-: - -v.". ;"f ; An English scientist lias discovered that music will increase the growth of plants. "Jane, rush that piano now and waltz those cabbages so that they shall be ready for market by to-morrow. And Johnny, take the bass drum to the corner lot and drum up those onions. Think, too, that by music played over the telephone we carr from this city solo a dead beat into life either in Portland or 'Frisco ! For this last Idea patent applied for. J ; . i-, !- IJelp those who try to help Tn em- selves. Mrs. Day is prepared to do all kinds of plain sewing, and as she has only her labor to depend upon tor a livelihood and for the support of her children, she asks the kind people of this city' who may have work which they wish done to give her a trial. Tbia is a case which should Interest all our benevolent disposed citizens. Let any who have work uf this kind which they wish done take it to Mrs. Day. . Drowned. Between eight and ninef o'clock last Saturday night Conrad Hilder brant and Mr. Kelley were wending their way to the residence of the latter, which is on what is called the island, a few rod's north of Magnolia Mills. In attempting to eross the mill-race over the bridge on Washington street, north of the St. Charles Hotel, both parties missed the bridge and fell into the race. The race is planked op from the bottom to the top, and the water is about ten feet deep,- and is an exceeding ly hard place to get out ot, especially when the night is exceedingly dark and the par ties remarkably luli, as on the occasion In question. By great good fortune Kelley succeeded in catching hold, with the tips of his fingered of a hole in the planking where he held on with a death grip, calling loudly the while for help. Hilderbrant was not so eiuwsfifiit. hut-. lon whot ha could, as appears from Kelley's Btiiteraen'y to keep up by catching hold of some drift wood ; but he soon became exhausted, ap parently, for, iu answer to some words ot cheer from Kelley, he said, "it's all day with me," and as Kelley heard no more ot him, it is supposed he sank then and there. The two men had been in the water nearly an hour before relief came. Kelley was1 pulled out pretty well exhausted frorrr his long soaking In the water. Hilderbrant was foud by Mr. Stratford, after dragging the race with a pike-pole for some time, and was taken out. Deceased was a native of Germany, aged 55 years, a cooper by trade, and had been in the employ of Chris. Ilouck for a long time. About the only fault deceased had was that whenever in funds lie would invariably indulge in a "bust." Deceased was buried on Sunday afternoon, a large concourse attending the' funeral. Peace to Ms manes. Election. The election for Chief and' Assistant Chief of the Albany Fire Depart ment takes place on the first Monday (7thy in May next. Saturday evening, April 2Sth, Linn Engine Company No. 2 meets to nominate candidates tor the places. W are not advised as to the action of One's,- but suppose a ticket will be placed in nom--ination by that Company. Should both' Companies nnite on the same candidate the" election will not be unusually interesting ;f but should both Companies have candidates in the field then look ont fof barrels of fun The polls will be held at Two's house, on Ellsworth street. ' At Lebanon. Our friends who deal af Lebanon should read the advertisement of Messrs. McCalley & Andrews, two live business men, and then go" and examine their stock of goods, all newy the entire outfit having been purchased last week, embracing the latest and most fashionable-styles- in elothing, dry goods,, boots and shoes, besides a lull invoice of wood and willow ware and fresh groceries. .Twv more popular men than Mc. and Dave would be hard to find, and we predict for" them a big run of custom Stacks of New Goods. Mr. John Blevins, Superintendent of the Grange Union Store of this city, returned from be low, last week where he went to lay in a stock of Spring and Summer goods. And now if you want the latest styles ot dry goods and clothing, lresh groceries, etc. etc., call at the G. U. S., corner of First and Washington streets. A wiiter in the frnirersalist says Holland wind-mills have arms of an enormous: length, and carry 3.000 yards of canvas. American wind-mills have arms of only or dinary size, but when they are sent to Con gress they can stand up and tire out the' Uollandest wind-mill that ever spread its bellying sails to the rising gale.
