The morning sun shines brightly for that man cured of that relentless tyrant. Dys pepsia. King of the fJood never fails wheo faithfully used. See advertisement. Last Friday evening we bad quite a lively thunder storm for this country. To an eastern person it would not amount to much, but it was a big thing iu this coun try. The rush duriug the fair at Hoffman and Joseph's has been immense. Go there for year groceries, and fruits. You can depend on flood treatment, aud are certain of getting only fresh goods. Throughout the Valley farmers seam de termined to hold their wheat and bring the charterers to their senses. They are trying to make a very hard-bitted horse drink, but there is nothing like firmness. A little boy attending church for the first time, on returning home was asked what was done at church, to which he re plied : "First they sang, then prayed, and then passed round a corn-popper." The Oregon Pacific R. R. want all the bay they can get, Buy a champion hay press of K. Buchanan and bail your surplus and you can readily dispose of it A stem wheel boat going up the river by this city kicks ap sack a dust that she looks like a frame house on tire. The river is so low that even turtles, terrapins and tadpoles can't get a drink at the ban. Meo with large families and small in comes go to Conrad Meyers for their gro ceries and breadstuff s knowing that they can get the best goods for the lowest prices. The Oliver Chilled Plow will ran and do gwd work in dVy ground when a steel plow cannot be kept in. They are just Che plow you want for summer fallowing. For sale by Samuel K. Young. We understand that Mr Nichols, who has the Canon farm rented, had Ift) acres of wheat standing during the late ate rex If no he wiU no doabt lose the most of it, as the storm was heavy. There was a good delegation of young men at i he depot when the train came in Monday night It's queer what an attrac tive instrument a brass born with a feminine mouth piece is. AU kinds of dry goods and groceries at Jan. I- Cowan's, Lebanon, and at prices which can not be grumbled at Why go away from home for bargains when von saw get better ones at Cowan's. The Stndebaker wagon mast surely be the boas of the road Judging from the num ber Buchanan has turned oat in the last tea days, ff you want a wagon yon had better go and see them. Xerxes is all bis glory never saw a better stocked store than C. R. Montague's at Lebanon, where a quality and class of goods tit even to grace the household of that proud monarch can be found. We noticed a good many people from the country Monday, who came here expressly to trade, but were disappointed iu finding that they could only get in at the back doors of the stores, so of course they . A great many people came in from the country but Tuesdry to attend the funeral services in memory of Urn late President The. change of the time from Tuesday back to Monday was made after the former date bad been announcer! in the weekly papers. We notice that in different parts of the valley men at the earnest solicitation of all the tax payers in their city, are consenting to run for office. The amount of self-ascri-tice exhibited in this way is perfectly mar velous. Timothy I ong a shcephearder, of Halecy not long ago, thinking that ha bad suffered the trials of Ufa long enough, out short what might have been a long career by shooting himself through the brain. Timo thy longs no longer after the vain things of earth. Anybody knowing of a small boy who. would not run seven blocks for a chance to ride half a block with his stomach across the edgej of a grain wagon tail-board will please bring him to this office aaa receive the reward intended originally for the man who should bring in a new comet tied up in an old paper. We hear that the Price- Liggett party had a terrible time getting across the mountains. Just as they started it commenced raining and the roads became so slippery that they could barely travel at all. They sold a part of their load, and even after that talked of coming I tack and wait for better weather, but finally succeeded in getting over. The rush for Star Brewery beer during the week has been unprecedented. Mr. Be Uanger has lieen kept busy dealing out bis delicious beer to tho multitude which ts fre pi ats L hi i pi s ti i5 establishment; the fastidious tastes of the sportsmen as well as the substantial ones of our friends from the country, have bten satisfied. We understand that since Montague re turned with his large stock of goods from San Francisco, his store at Lebanon has, been crowded with customers anxious to see his goods and learn their quality and prices. It is but doing him jifstice to say . a. a. S. S mat in every case tney nave gone away satisfied, ami generally with big packages. It takes a good many good qualities to make a merchant who will he popular year in and out among tho masses. If you find such a man he will be one whom you can rely on wher; he tells you a thing. Perhaps he. will possess n characteristic more strik ing tha i this. The pejple of Lebanon say that fieir popular merchant, J as. L. Cowan, owe his repetition and ences? to this rare quality. Certainly he Mseteet the happy faculty of keeping customers and getting new ones. R wittl. AND rBBMpNAI. KiM Sam Clarke, of the umrr, attended cU Pair.

We noticed It A Irvine and BUI M Smith ont on our streets at rather a boar last Monday night We promised we wouldn't tell about the high time the were having, and will keep oar promise. Henry Mcllwain started for the East last week, and will probably go to Franklin, N. Y., where be has relations living. When he left here his mint! was not fully made up whether he would go there or st"p in San Francisco. It was fuu to besr the member all the Lsdiea band going to tbe depot hut Monday morning. Tbe train wist led while a party of them were only a short 'distaaoe from their band room, and what a splutter it did raise among them! They started of in a keen ran like a band of sheep, Robt Cosbow, of Brownsville, ma Uj u . a pleasant cdl la-t Mondty and dropped several dollars into our safe, which had been sent by him from our subscribers. Next week we w ill send bim a complete list of our subscribers at that point end all who wish to (o so can call on bim and settle. We were very much pleased to receive a call this week from Mr. HoJman, traveling correspondent of the Ortgomkm. He left here yesterday for the Sound, and iu about a moo th will return here to the valley to gather op and compile for his paper the statistics of the present wheat crop. It will be a large undertaking, but one which will be appreciated by he readers of the Ortyo wan. A New Millinery fetafctlaliuseal. Miss Emms Melson, of Salem, has opened out a real neat and well stocked millinery establishment in the building recently oc cupied by Mrs. O. L. Parks, and is now randy to fit ont stir ladies with anything in tbe millinery line at extremely low prices. She has hail considerable experience in the business and feels confident she can please all who may honor her with their custom. She will keep her stock up well, and will have almost everything for which there is any sale in tbe market IIMHOM TIOV MM U K HohVn is her by given that the partnership heretofore existing between B.

The Ladies' Brass Band of Albany fur nished the rnuslc for ths memorial aer vices At Salem yesterday. The Impressive appropriateness of tbe music was height ened in effect by the black robed figures of the musicians. As the solemn antbem and funeral march stole out upon the quiet autumn air eyes unused to weep overflowed with tears of sorrow. ftiUrflrlil Meannseat Fond.

"It was enough to make a saint swear." A cow, a calf and a hoy; arrange them in any positiou you choose, aud who wouldn't swear? The advice of a very sensible citUeuof Crawfordsvllle wilt proba bly be taken, and In the good old style of the ancient Spaniards, prosecution of the cow be begun. This Bents tew Frank P. M. Smith brought us In some on ious a week or two ago that measured a foot and a half In circumference and weighed a pound and a half. That was big and no mistake. We didn't thing It possible that larger could be raised. But another precinct has now been heard from the Mormon settle ment up In Sweat Home. That Chief of the Destroying Angele, John Shea, oame down a few days ago and brought with him several bushels of white va rlety of onion ae of which weighed two p Minds This puts Sweet Kama a little ahead of Sandem in onion rais ing. e Thai Men. L. ML Blain advertised in another column that he "will offer goods at prices that wUl draw a mob," and tbe statement is verified. People seem to know where they can get Kaod goods at reasonable 'prions as he baa been so crowded this week that be has had to hire mors help, ia order to wait on the immense crowd that has thronged kb store. Tuesday, particular! his sale of olothiug was almost unprecedented. In fact every day this week, eaoept Monday, when be kept bis store closed according to agreement, he has bad more business than he coo Id at tend to. We hear tbnt when the lodge of United Workmen was organised at Lebanon, A. L. Hlel put hie name dowo as one of the charter members, hut when It waa instituted he failed to be present and did not afterward unite with it What a great help It would have been to his wife and littlehaht if he had united with the order as he Bret Intended. He has now been tak en eoddenly from them, and they are left without meaaa of support ar C'aMljr lair. We are sorry to say that our County Fair is not meeting with tne success which we hoped would attend it It opened up last Tuesday, bat tbe weather has been threat ening, a few showers have fallen, and tl e people have thus been deterred from attend tng. The pavilion is well filled with a great many different articles, and the de partments of J swine and sheep shows up well, but at this date it looks like the Fair would prove a financial failure Sperlaete by ike Hnndrewt Fenbay A Mason this week received tvooor t'iOO worth of thing's celebrated eye preserver or peeAnclee. They have several hundred pairs and can suit any one, and will sell at front 60 oeuts per pair up tupi or $10.

A teen 1 MfcMOBY OF JtMKS 4 (itnriRLB Ths people of Albany and vicinity, in common with the people all over our broad nation, observed the funeral day of our late President Placet of business were closed generally throughout the city, end there seemed to be a genuine spirit ol mourning pervading everybody who participated in ths services of ths day. Iu aeoordanoe with the provisions of the meeting held at the call of the Mayor Saturdsy night to provide for the observance of the day. the bells of the city began tolling at 12 o'clock, and oontiuusd tolling until 12:30. Shortly afterwards the Mechanics .Band, headed by ths Marshal, proceeded to the Court House, where they received the clergy and county officials ; from there they prooeeded to the Council Chamber, received the Mayor and City Council, and thence to Albaay Engine Co. No. 1, where the Fire Department and citizens joined in line, and all marched through tbe principal streets to the Court House, where ths memorial services were held. After the Band had discoursed the requiem, 1 'Sweet Spirit Hear My Prayer," opening remarks were made by tbe Mayor. Tbe Band then rendered the dirge "Fare well to Karth," which was followed by a song by the choir, reading of the two Proclamations by Rev. J. A. Hollsubaugh, and prayer by Rev. J. W. Harris. After farther music and a scripture lessen read by Rev. I. H. Condi t, eulogistic addresses were delivered by Dr. S. (1, Irvine aud Rev. 1. Dilloo, both of which were very impress ivs, thoughtful discourses. After another Snag by the choir the committee on Condol ence reported aa follows t WMKSaaa, io tha dispensation of an all wise Providence it has pleased tbe Dud of the Universe to remove from us the head of the nation, Jamas A. Oarflebl, late Presi dent of the United States, and WtlsnsAS, it is eminently fitting in this hour of sorrow and grief, which tills all hearts and has cast a funeral pall over our entire land, that we in common with the people of this country acknowledge our high appreciation of tbe noble qualities of this christian statesman, manifest out sorrow aod grief ia bis untimely death, express our feelings of regret at the great and irrepara ble loss of our revered chief executive, and :i ve voice to oar deep feelings of sympathy or bis bereaved and sorrow - stricken family, therefore be it resolved 1st That la the person of James A.

Mary Brwn, mother of I be late (ton. Mart V. Brown. left Ibis city for Ottumwa, Iowa, where she bad a daughter residing. She arriv ed at her destination without accident and without any perceptible change in bar physical condition, but about two week's afterward was taken violently ill and oti Sabbath, Sept 11th, paeead away, her bedside being surrounded by (wo da lightens one son, and many other rela tive. Although she paawad through suany trials and hardship aha lived lo the ripe age of 78. When tbe war of tha rebellion broke out the Brown family re- aided lo Oakaloooa, Iowa. Her son Mart V. Brown waa one of the very first to re a pond to the call, and tbe others followed until she ha her five sons in the army. Next tbe oli father volunteered. lie waa too old to go into regular service, but oinod one of the old "Uray bear a" regi ment. After serving for a year or so the health of her son Mart broke down ad be waa discharged , and going home that old mother nursed bim into health again. besides making a living for herself aud one daughter. Next her youngest son, "Bunk" (as the Oskaloosa boys and hie comrades called him) was taken with the fever at tbe front away dowu in MlawUsip- pi. lie was brought hack to the hospi tals at Memphis and there his mother took care of him until he, too, was dis charged. She took him home, and on the way he took the smsli pox, and short ly after reaching Oskaloosa died. Next auotber son came home suffering with the consumption contracted iu the cam paigns in the South, and he too died. Soon afterward tbe father came, and tbat aoourgeoftbe Union soldiers, tho small pox carried him off. How the old lady bore up under all these afBctioue and privations hi more than any cue can tell. Very few families did no much for tbe cause as this one, and it looks to us like one cent or one dollar funds applied to wards rearing monuments to sunk, heroic old Cnion mothers would bo in much better taste aod more patriotic than to spend I them to defend auoh men as Ser- geaut Mason. .taolher Irlrn.l Ab. Umphrey evidently takes us fur an Irishman and thinks our name is McStewsrt, He came into our office last Monday bearing on his shoulder a bag of potatoes which were s little the nicest lot ef "Murphies" we have ever seeu. They were of the "Peerless'' variety, and they are well named, for they are almost as large as a man's head, and lor bak mg especially no va rlety is equal to them unless it is the "Suowtiake."
