There are few countries that are ao pro lific in second crop stories as the Willamette Valley. We have mentionod heretofore sec ond crops of plums, blackberries, strawber ries, etc. Tuesday Mr C C Cherry handed as a second growth apple from his yard in this city, and we understand there are many other yards in Albany with them now partly de veloped. Perhaps aa remarkable a case of second growth is that reported in reference to Mr P H Bowman's tobacco crop, across the Willamette. Notwithstanding several severe frosts, generally death to tobacco, a second crop has cone np on Mr Bowman's place. It is row three feet high and doing welL Next. A rorker and a Trala of Cars, On Friday mornlbg of last week as the Brownsville train on the Narrow Gauge was approaching the suburbs of Leng Station a member of the porcine family, generally called a hog, tcmeri toosly jumped on the track in front of the aneine.

Last Monday while Mr Mack Monteith was going along Fourth street from the west ern part of the city on his bicycle a cultis dog ran in front of htm tu such a manner as to throw him heavily to the ground, se that he struck on bis head and right arm, causing a fracture of one of the bones of his arm. lie was taken home on a dray in a senseless con dition, but is now rapidly recovering from the effects of the accident. Like all bicycle riders he "dogons" the dogon dogs which everlastingly obstruct tbeir way. A kraseless Law. One of the moat senseless, old mi id laws, ever passed is that turned out by the last Legislature requiring a bicycle to stop with in one hundred yards of a team coming to wards it. All through thcfEast bicycles are treated the same as other vehicles and the riders of them have the same rights that the rider of a horse has. The- next thing we know our Solon will send through some statute prohibiting women from wearing baaas or requiring men to discontinue the use of flashy neck-ties for fear something will bo soared or shocked.

The circulation of the Ortyniaa in Albany is larger than it was before the meeting of tho State Legislature. Probably the same could be said f other places in Oregon. As Mitchell was evidently helped by the Ore ijonian ao the Ortrjonian sterns, on the face of it to have been benefitted Ly thn almost universal censure heaped on it by the press of Oregon. If a man or paper would obtain atrength they cannot, it seems, secure it bet ter than by hiring a few defamers who will make it a business to run them down to the lowest depths. This is a peculiar world any way. a French, the jeweler, proposes to discount everybody ia the price of Christmas presents this year. Cfcrlataoas .eods at Mellwala's. You want to get yonr holiday goods, the same aa everything else, at bottom prices, don't you. Well, then, call on A . B. Mc- Ilwain. He has a varied line of goods suitable for holiday presents, and you should not boy without seeing them. They consist of toilet sets, beautiful frames, handbags, silk and other handkerchiefs, elegant brushes, hand-looking-glaases, hoods, fans, and fancy goods generally. Jtemember aad call at A. B.

Irlee el Wheat Wheat has fallen to 60 cenU and is liable to fall more. There seems to he nothing to keep it up, We once predicted it would raise to 70 or 75c. That is the way it looked sev eral months ago. We are unable to figure any such result out now though, and have grave fears lest even less than 60 cents will follow. For a nice piece of silverware efuap call at F. M. French's. Do aot Worry. A Linn county widow who recently left her three children with a farmer in the coun try, came to this city and was married, and has not been heard of since, by her children, is probably simply on her "honeymoon" trip down tho Valley.

AMOVT ALtsANf , Lot a stranger enter a plans like Albany and, if he happens to do so when thorc are few people on the streets, or the nun bar of druuken rows are small, he will go away with a long faced aoooant about the terrible dullness of the city. This la narrow way of Judging of the butlneaa of a place. Necessarily there cannot he much street life in a olty the size of thin, except in a mining region. A trip through all of Albany is always bound to reveal moro manufacturing and buslnoss activity than many realise, not only will the books of our merchants show pretty fair sales ; but our several small factories and mills will give evidence of at least a Hying business.
