Nawtoo IbHiKay, aach about siiteea years of
ago, wore faarfully bunted by a powder ex

deooe of the father ef the farmer Marion
Kuter near Harriaburg, ami were weighing
out some powder. Tbey had one pound out
ia the scales and young Kizer was down on
bis knees oa the floor and had the can con
taining about four pounds resting between
big logs. McKay uotioed a flak s of some
thing rrd aud glittering, like iron rust, in
the aooup ou the ecalaa, and picked it op
and stuck it in the candle just to aoe if
thing are really what they seem. Results
would seem to indicate that all i not ru.t
that glitter. It exploded, and so earned
the sx piosion of the powder in the can and
oa the scale. Ths result was fearful Both
of tbsyenog twin were terribly powder-burnea
on the bands and face, and had nearly all the
hair burned o(T their bead. ' Tbeir clething
was ignited, aud before the lire was
extinguished Kixer'e bugs wore badly burned,
sad but for the timely arrival of other men.,
here of (be family, togclli.r with Sheriff
Charltoa and Surveyor ISriawa, wbe ware
psssiag the night there, both would probably
have been bunted to death. The effect of
the shock was so great in the room that one j
indow was blown out eutirely, one parti
tion borated, and the floor beneath the boys
parted sufficiently to allow some of the sparks
to go into the room below. The can was
tern into pieces, and parts of it were blown
entirely through a valise, and almost through
a partition wall. As young Kizer was kneel
ing down en the Hour with the powder can
between bis knee it can hardly be conjee.

!-t Saturday the sporUmeu of Albany,
Corvsllu, Soap Creek and Long Tom were
all out on a grand match bust. It was a
kind of sn "unsight unseen affair as no
one knew on which side be belonged st the
time or the huut. The sportsmen met at dif
ferent place, and counted their game, send
ing tb score to ConraUU. Yesterday all
who took part in the hunt ware to congregate
at Corvallis, and after ths two Captains, ties.
Oerbsrd and Wallace Baldwin, would make
known the names of tho members of their
companies, a magnificent game dinner would
be partaken of, to be paid for by the iueers.
After dinner a glass hall shooting match and
rifle shooting fur turkey would be the order
of the day. We did out bear the result.' but
we know our boys mti.t have bad a good
huut np there.

Th Chine S troubles har st last almost
eeased at this city. When we went to press
sst week one of the almond-eyed rascals was
being tried before the Recorder for ataaulting
one of bis brethren who incurred bis dt.
pleasure by concluding to take out city li
cease and going to work, lie was found
guilty and lined and costs. He then had
Hxn We, snother heathen, arrested fur sa
isult upon him, and after three trials the
prisoner was-diamissed. The costs id the
suit will ran np to about $250 or 1300, which
the peoplewill have to psy utile.. Judge
Haven taxes them np to the prosocut:ng
witness, as be has the right to do. This
occurring st the present time will operate
very badly against the measure now before
the Council to repeat the laundry license
law. They seem to be a sourco of expense
to the county, having the same redress in
Court that a citisen has, and still do nut
pay a cent toward running the machinery
of our government.

As w are having tome weather to-day 1
thought I would drop you a few linos In re
gnrd to matters In this section of country.
We had a change in tho woathtr on the 8th
lust, it turning quito warm. Before then
th mail from Kugeuo had failed to connect
ftt three different time. The mail from The
Dalles ha also been unable to run on Its
regular time, on account of the sevjerity of
the weather, so that we have not had the
news from below very regulsrly.
Buniurss iu this city was very livnly en
Friday th 10th, as the people came in from
all around, expecting to see the grand 1000
race between O. W. Barnes mnro, "Cotton
nose, and CoIdtbnrpe home "Bop-rye;" but
tho race was postponed until the next dsy,
Saturday, on which dsy tho track was iu
ilendid condition. Ou of the squares!
ra-es ever run oa this taU( was run ou
that day, and Cutton-nose was declared ths
victor by eighteen feet or more. Both ani
mals are very good horses.and will matched,
as they rsn very close until uear ths lluuh.
After the grand event of th day there
came a dash of 400 yards between W, O,
Allen's bay bona Luther, and John Wilson's
Indian Mark, for $100, in which a much if
not mere, intereat, was taken, than in th
big raoe, Indian Mark had beaten Luther,
or been allowed to beat him, once before,
but the little bay aheajio is allowed to ran,
can, and will, gat away from all such as In
dian Mark every time. This was a very easy
victory for Luther.
Out of ths Ouboco usrtz lodge heretofore
mentioned, in the last cliance there was
pounded np about 25 pound of the rock,
which turned out one and a half ounce of
of gold and silver bullion, which a, a. very
good yield. This ws. on Friday tbo 10:k.
