"Now, Mr. Maydole," said he, "we
will talk business. I have consulted with
my co-owners in the mining propetty I
spoke to you of some days ago, and we
hare had an in terview and an Agreement
with representative parties from the other
side by the other side you will un
derstand me to mean those owners who
hold views of mine management with
which we h ive not concurred. We
are about equally divided as to sides,
but the other side lias what may be calleii
possession. Our agreement is that while
the other side shall continue their man in
charge ot the actual workings of the mine,
our man shall keep the books, and act as
auditor of all account. We, on our part,
agree that the books shall be correctly kept,
and be at all reasonable times open to in
vestigation by the other side or their rep
resentative and they agree that the
working of and for the mine shall be done
in a workmanlike, honest, and economical
manner, and that the work and workings
shall be at all reasonable times open to
Investigation by u. or our representative.
Do you understand the situation ?"
I think I do."
"Well, then, my co-owners have left it
with roe to choose a man for the place.
Do vou know anything about minbig ?"
"Practically, nothing by observation,
somewhat."
"Do you know anything about the dis
position, peculiarities, and temper ot
miners ?"
"Yes, sir."
"From reading Pacific Slope mining
stories ?" asked Colonel Holten, throwing
up his brows in Interrogative wrinkles
"No ; I have been down into the mines
and associated with miners."
YVery gooil very gojd. -Xhat is better
than reading the bosh and bathos of our
iong-toin litTratnre. I only ask you these
questions tor the purpose ot getting a
foundation on which to say to you that
your must difficult task will be in at once
ilotng your duty to us, (of which I have no
dntiht) and avoiding, as far as possible,
difficulties in contending with the preju
dices of the resident people. I will not
withholdfroui yon that 1 consider it a
delicate and responsible position one
which will draw upon your orglnal re
sources in grasping ."he situation. But I
am. without more words, going to place
you there ; feeling satisfied," he added,
good-hninoredly, "upon Miss Alice Win
aiis's theory, that your ancestors will hover
about you. and see ynu through."
"Have you any suggestions to make as
to my acton in the premises ?"
"No, sir. Go ahead do right succeed
or fall on the federation ot your own
faculties, and." he added, "the blood of
your ancestors."
"Thank you."
There is the agreement on which your
conduct is to be based ; make a copy ot it,
which I will endorse as to its correctness ;
take tlie copy with you when you go
Here also is a letter directed to the present
Incumbent, who, upon its presentation, will
pass all books, pagers, or accounts what
ever into your hands. Here is an agree
ment with yourself which yon are to re d
and ?-lgu. if tlie consideration for your ser
vices s therein written is satislactory to
you."
Handing the papers to Norman, Colonel
Holten wheeled about to his desk and went
to work.
Norman first read the agreement lie
was to sign, flushed with delight at the
amount nt salary named the'eiu, and sign
ed the paper. Then he went to work to
study carefully the other agreement and
copy the same. When he had finished lie
made some' rustling noise, in gathering
together and folding up his papers, which
attracted the Colonel's attention.
"Well," said that person, sr 111 busy at
his de-k, "is everything satisfactory?"
Perfectly."
"I have no wish to hurry yon, and there
Is no Imperative call on on you tor a few
days, but when do you desire to start?"
"As soon is may be." answered Nor
man ; to-morrow, or next day ; but. It you
please, there is a matter I would like to
talk a little with you about."
"When?"
"Now. if yon can spare the time."
Holten immediately wheeled about
from his desk, took off his glasses, whirled
them around between bis thuaibaud linger,
and said :
"Well. sir. proceed."
Tlien Norman told him of his row and
his arrest. In the beginning of which re
ntal, he stopped whirling his glasses, look
ed steadily at Norman, and rather frowned:
hut as Norman proceeded his face cleared
up. then he smiled,- and finally laughed
outright, and asked :
'Where is that damned stage driver?"
Now as Colonel Holten seldom uued pro
fanity, his expression may he taken and
excused as a ti ibute ot respect to Mr. Tal
man Reese.
"He Is in the city enjoying himself, and
expects to appear before the Police Court
to-day at 9 A. m.." said Norman.
That must not be," baid Colonel Holten;
"PI! fix that."
"Thank you."
"Yes, I'll fix tAo-." Colonel Holten re
peated, emphatically. "I can not say
that I do not admire your conduct in this
case, Mr. Maydole. In fact, if I had a son
I should feel proud to have him manifest
tlte -tint spirit ; but there is a delicacy, as
you will see, in all conflicts with lawless
and disreputable persons where the conflict
is liable to Involve any mention ot reput
able ladles in our Police Court. Nothing
but unavoidable necessity should lead to
such a sta!e of things that Is to say. un
less our bettet people will join hands to
batter out tills disgrace of the streets, by
following your example."
"( think It could be done," said Norman
firmly."
"No doubt. But San " Francisco Is an
Indulgent mother to her erring children."
'Well, then." said Norman, "your as
surance as to the matter In tlie Police Court
to-day leaves me nothing more to attend
to. except," and here he drew twenty-five
dollars from his pocket, "that when you
go, or send, to tlie Police Court, you would
have this given to tho proper officer, to be
by him handed to Mr. Reese, ill lien of
what that gentleman has left on deposit
as hall money. I desire this done, let the
will ot the court be what it may, because
Mr. Reese is a gallant fellow or. as be
expresses it. he has the sand" and is in
no way at fault tor my indiscretion."
"I'll attend to him." said Colonel Hol
ten. "pt:t vour money In your pocket."
'Thank you ; but pardon uiu when I
suggest that he will not take any money
unless he thinks there Is a full acquittal."
"There shall be no acquittal about it.
There shall be a discharge a general
quash. It there Is a magistrate in this
SUte who will hold a man for pugilizing
hoodlums who insult innocent women, I
would like to see him," said tlie Colonel,
with a touch of indignation iti his tone.
Colonel Holten then looked at his watch,
rose to his feet, and added. "I must look
alive to be down town In time to- explain
these things in arrest of further proceedings
at tlie Police Office ; and as It is now near
tlie breakfast hour. I will go to hurry things
up a little. If you think pt anything you
need to have, or to know, which I can as
sist yon to. Inform me of it," and he pass
ed out into t'e hall.
Among ottier things said aP breakfast,
Mrs. Holten remarken :
'I am Informed that you are going to be
a miner. Mr. MaydoJe.V
Yes, madam."
"Do you think ypu will like t? , s
"I will try fo like It."
"You nra not going down Inp the mine

On Tuesday night, the friends of
Rev. Mr. Harris, in large numbers, called
at bis residence, where, ol course, they
were duly entertained, and a pleasant
evening spent. They presented quite a
number of useful articles in the shape ot
apparel, etc., to the Rev. gentleman and
family, together with about $180 in cash.
It was deserved. -
Tne Premium Tnresner.
Among threshing machines the "Minne
sota Chief" Is boss. For finish, durability,
power, and above all for good, rapid,
clean work It has no superior, as the many
premiums awarded it at the Fairs wherever
exhibited conclusively proves, as well as
testimonials from thousands of farmers
who have used it all over the world lurther
attest. It took the sweeptakes premium
at the late Oregon State Fair over the field.

Four Vacancies to Fill.
There are four vacancies in the scholar
ships tor Linn county at 'the State Uni
versity at Eugene City. Any one desirous
of obtaining a scholarship In this county
must apply in writing to Prol. Gilbert,
County School Superintendent. The tall

Sine Cows for Kale A Barirnln.
Mr. J. M. Beach offers for sale at his
ranch six mile? east of Harrisburg. nine
good milch cows, six of them having calv
ed last Spring. They have been carefully
handled by Mr. Marian Huston, and are in
good condition. He will sell the whole
lot for the small sum of $lqO, payable to
Smith & Brasfleld, at Harrisburg. The
cattle can be seen at Mr. Beach's ranch,
upon which Mr. Huston now resides.
This is a bargain tor some one.
An Accident.
On Monday Capt. N. B. Humphrey
met with an accident that came pretty
near causing a vacancy in the S'ate Senate
from this county. As he was returning
from Benton county, and just before
reaching this city, the front axle of the
vehicle in which he was riding broke, and
let the vehicle down suddenly. This
frightened the team and they proceeded
to drag Capt. H.. who held on to the Hues
and eventually succeeded in stopping them.
The Captain's arm was brui-eU consider
ably, and he was otherwise shook up.
Cistern Contract Awarded.
On Tuesday evening, Mr. Scott, Chief
ot the A. F. D., at the Council chamber,
met the committee of the Council on Fire
and Water, when they proceeded to open
the bids received in accordance with the
advertisement of the City Recorder, for
arching the cistern at the intersection of
Second and Broadalbiu streets. Tlie
following bids were received :
B. W. Ctindiff $109 00
Clark & Davis 7tt 00
The bid or Clark & Davis being the
lowest by $33, the contract was given to
them. They are to complete the cistern
in a workmanlike manner, enclosing It
with an iron top similar to the other
cisterns belonging to the city, the work to
be completed by the 7th of August next.
Oenoeo nates. , .
Ctrt. Price arrived at his bora a in this
city the first ot the week. He came
through from Ochoco With his team, and
reports twelve nilles of somewhat soft
snow In the mountains', exceedingly dif
ficult of passage. One party whom he
passed on the road whs four days- making
the twelve miles -with a sled. Q sing to
the cold, backward spring., the crops in
Ochoco will be light. To make recom
pense for the failure In cereals, however,
tha grass crop will be abundant and heavy.
Cattle are in fine condition, and the coun

Wool Stolen.
Last week some wool, 602 pounds, the
property of Mr. George F. Simpson, was
stolen from the Monteith w'larf. When
the absence ot the wool sacks became
known, it was believed that the lioat bad
loaded them on through a mistake, and
word was telegraphed to the cgent at
Portland to look out tor the wool ; but
when the agent telegraphed back that no
freight marked as diseribed had been re
ceived, immediate steps were taken to
discover its whereabouts. It was learned
that two sktfts had been taken from this
vicinity on Wednesday night of last week,
one ot them, a red ski ft, belonging to
John Riley, the other a white skiff, be
longing to Bob Taylor, and It Is believed
that on these boats tlie stolen wool was
carried off. Parties were sent below on
Thursday, but failed to secure the thieves.
Saturday, Mr. Simpson himself secured a
skirt and went down the river as tar as
Salem, hearing ot the boats occasionally
as having passed down the river on Wed
nesday. This is the most daring theft that
has occurred hereabouts for a number of
years. Old residents will remember the
last daring robbery, which occurred some
eighteen or twenty years ago, when a
whole pen full of fat hogs, numbering
probably twenty, were taken from tlie
pun and driven off down the river, and
neither the thieves or the hogs were ever
discovered. We hope, - however, thai In
the case of the wool steal, the thieves may
he discovered and made to pay the penalty
of their crime. The wool cost some $1 30.
