collection not only of apples but of potatoes,
big pumpkins, squashes, wheat, in fact every

The following from the Koseburg Se

poem published in tho Dkmociiat two

Aa a matter of fact no poem has ever
been written and published In the
Northwest that for literary merit com

poem entitled "A Prophecy" which is
local in nature, wri ten evidently by
local talent, bear, a olassloal air tliat a

that newspapers are continually seek

gods of the ancients and ouuneots our
oceans, our plains aud glauts of tho for
esU with them an happily that one ia
really reminded of the grace, ease and
smoothness of a Virgil or a Homer.
The foil iwiiig brass a correspondent st
Philomsth shows how the poem has bceu re
ceived by literary people with a Uato for
claaaicsl poetry :
Who is "Oanmors" author of "A Pfetjfc

think it will oomme-id itself for favorable
consideration to the host authors, and the

A Roseburi gmitletnau of tine literary

On last Sabbath mornioj e veil of the
children of our worthy follow cltlseu, V
II Caldwell, who livns about two mil's
from tho city across the Calapooia la the
direction of Corvallis, were coming toS
town to church, The approach to tke Cala
pooia bridge Is quite long and high, and
protected with very weak banister. As
their team was just entering the bridge,
which Is a ovored on, the team became
frightened st the large and flashy adver
tising signs pit me 1 on the bridge, and be
gan to run backward. Th -v pushed the
wagon back and off to the side, wheie it
struck the banisters, which gsve wsy and
the blud wheels rolled of). The fore wheels
caught on the ends of the plsnks of the
approach of tho bridge, Tbe children all
tumbled out, falling a distance often or
twelve feet, but none were hurt seriously,
Mr. Kedneld, Mr, Wood in and another
gentleman all happened to be near and
helped tho children act thing to rights,
and started them back home. It was a
bsppy escape Indeed. We think such
large flash advertising on bridges should
not be allowed, It Is further suggested
that such banister should be protective
rather than deceptive.
The Male Fair
The fair this year, backod as it is by the
State, ia proving a success, the attendance
being uncommonly good. The first day $150
were taken in at the gate, 600 season tickets
being sold ; on Tuesday the teceipts were
$2700. Financially the fair certainly is
proving a success. The exhibits io tbe dif
ferent departments are many and good. Io
atock particularly Oregon need not be asham
ed of its exhibit. Machinery Hall is almost
empty. The display in the pavilion ia the
best for years. Most of ths excitement ia
occasioned by tho race. Everybody whs
sees them payr 25 cents snd helps himself to
a seat. Monday Jim Merritt woo the intro
ductory scramble, sod Lady Maud tho trot,
her beat heat being mado in 2:34). Almon
ette was second, having woo two heats.
Tuesdsy He pet la woo the running race, cask

ting race for two year olds waa won by Naa

for two-year olda in Oregon.
Thr Flak Ladder.
About one hundred men are engaged in
the work of construction tha fish ladder at
Oregon City, which is to be completed about
the first of next in ath. It will baa great
instituting for the peiple of tin Uppir Wil
lamette, for, when iioishel, will bring sal
mon at our otrn wharfs. A 1'jrtUnd paper
in describing the ladder says that, though
the term "ladder" is used this structure par
takes more of the nature of a stair way. The
whole ladder is 835 feet in length and con
sists of 41 steps. The first section is tSJ feet
ong and is an upward incline of step cut in
the bed, Then there U a level of 40J feet to
break the force of the fall of the water. At
the end of this thero is another rise of steps
00 feet long which terminates at tho top,
Tbe steps are each one tool high and are
twelve feet in length. In conjunction with
the steps thete are also what are called
ocas, which break the force of the water in
its descent and enables the fish to roit.
The Mew Klamath Agent.
Rev. Jos. Emery is now at Klamath
Agency, wbich, we understand, be b;
taken charge of. Tbe agent at this reser

him a physician at $1000, a clerk at f 1000,
a carpenter at $800, a blacksmith at $fto0, a'
miller at $800, a wagon and plow maker
at $800, a teacher at $600, and other sub

particularly by his predecessor, who
wished to retire from the agency, and
goes there with the confidence of every
body who knows him.
Aa Explosion,
Last Monday morning a very peculiar
explosion occurred at tbe residence of Mr.
Conrad Meyer on Calipoola atreet. A
loud noise wss beard and then Mr, Meyer's

from tbe water register : but just how
that oould be we do not understand. Prob.

E l. Uroyles who waa mentioned last week
aa having fade I to return with a horse ssd

on Saturday waa arretted and taken to Cor

held to await the action of the grand jury and
incarcerated io the county jail, where be will
dream of the good Uose he will probably have
at Salem for the next year or two, until the
Circuit Court meets at Corvallis. When
captured Broyles had traded the carriage and
harness for a rifle, cartridges aod amonttion,
and did oot aeem to be making much of ao
effort to get away. It is doabted If be has
asose enough to run away if he bad tho op
portanity. It is our opinion that be likes the
life in a penitentiary. W boo there before be
waa made a "trusty" and bade free and
easy time, with oo responsibility, and cloth
ing and "grub" free. Oo tbe occasion of hie
calling at thia offios two weeka ago he met
tioned tbe fact of a 1 oik county paper ac
cusing him of being io tbe penitentiary two
years, whereas it waa only eight months, aod

who went U Portland last weok ascertain
od this from Mr. 8. He stated In a letter
that be was going down tbe river three
miles In a boat with two auspicious look -
ing Misaourians, to make a trade. It is
now thought that this was made up in
order to deceive his folks here. The gen

facts making it look strongly this way
Only a day or two before he left he sold
severs! hundred bushels of wheat, for
wbich be received S204 in cash, and, as be
bsd paid no debts for several mouth, it ia
believed be bad several hundred dollars
beside. He owed a large number both

have began attachment suits, but there is
not much to be gotten, aa tbe farm was

one, and has n timorous speculations In
