Numerous eases are reported where efforts have been made to satiate the gna wings of their inner men and as well lay up something for a rainy day. Friday night, several, how many is not known ' entered Mr. William Mc Bride's house, on the corner of Ferry and Eleventh street, and helped themselves promiscuously to all there was to eat in the pantry, besides taking away with them some bread, an 0 rare oat, several aprons, a half dollar, and other risings They did 00k leave their card or photographs. On Saturday evening a hungry tramp rapped at the back door of Mr. D. Mans fields residence and being refused admission tried to take the house by conquest, but the enemy, Mrs. Mansfield and daughter, were too much for him and he left A man named O' Donald was arrested but proved to have been the wrong person. The dramatic entertainments given by Hoh man's Dramatic Company on Friday and Saturday nights drew fair houses, the receipts for the two evenings being about $90. The rendition of the plays was highly commended by those present, "The Duel in the Snow," particularly bringing out some good talent. In the matter of comedy Miss Emma Schubert as Gimp and Charles Mueller as Tho Titmouse surprised their friends here by some uncommonly good acting. All of the parts were well sustained and we have no occasion to repeat a com ment on a pervious play by this company. The scenic effect was of a superior nature, that in the duel between Sir Charles Andry and Captain Dartford in particular attract ing attention. In the farce Miss Minnie Corser as Mrs. Petti bone seemed to carry off the honors, though all acquitted them selves wsth credit. In about six weeks Mr. Hoh man intends presenting the play "The Child of the Regiment." W)Ms4 Maple By rap Mr. C. P. Burkhart informs us that he recently tapped three or four maple trees on his farm, getting some excellent sap that he worked up into maple syrup of a fine grade. In fact he considers it superior to syrup made from Eastern sugar. Oregon Is full of maple trees and there is no reason why they should not be untilized for mak ing sugar. A Washington county man" made three thousand pounds last year, and there is no reason why some Linn county man could not do the same. There would be a big and ready sale of maple sugar at good prices. The cost of trying it would be little. 1 ax' Pergtarj. Last week the house of J, H. Lame at Halsey was broken into by some person or persons unknown, but supposed to be a tramp or tramps -who robbed the house of a small amount of provisions. Entrance was made by cutting the sash in a sash door and talung the glass out. IMfU St fBveJtD IIIIXTI.

Freight which was shipped from San Francisco on Thursday of last week by way of the Oregon Pacific was landed in this city on Sunday night, Monday morning be ing ready to deliver to our merchants. This is not approached by any other route, and speaks in strong terms for the manner in which the road is being managed. Qakk freight is what is wanted, and it is a feather in the O. P's. cap that it is able to give it Through the energy of their Transportation Agent, W. B. Rice, a big traffic Is being worked up. Another steamer has been chartered to deliver freight to and from the road. City Transfers ag Beat Estate. Several pieces of property havethanged hands in Albany since our last Issue. On Monday Mr. L. Vkrfck purchased tha Arnell property for $2,000, the price that has been placed on it for several years. Mr. Eli Carter purchased two blocks in the eastern part of the city for $600 and J. H Burkhart two lots on the corner of Baker and Sixth Street for $700. Mr. Burkhart we understand will build during the sum mer. The location of hk lots is one of the best in the city and they have been placed at a good price for several years. m A Stoeel lUastratton- An exchange gives a very good illustra tlon, pointed and all kernel, of the newspa per subscription business We appropriate it Suppose a farmer who sold his wheat, instead of taking it to market in bulk, was to sell it in tw sack quantities all over the country, when he had gotten three or four thousand bushels out jfcuw would he like to have to be kept punching up the purchasers in order to get hk money. That is what the newspapers of Orecron do. Ther would not be much fun in raking wheat if that was the style of the market, particular iy wiicn 11 is wnwwnjB tnat tutiy a quar ter of a country newspapers subscribers never pay at all. I lU. M. 1 , Act. The second act of the farce "A Kiss in the Dark" was given in the First Ward in this city on last Tuesday evening, a young man and lady being the cuors, and a couple of unobserved gentlemen, the audience. As there k some objection bo individual criticisms of amateurs no names will be mentioned. Mrftsyvttxajrf v yacjvika bat. The Necessity a Urea was. An extended letter from Mr. Wallls Nash, of Corvallls, shows the necessity of Increased Influence being brought to bear towards obtaining a $300,000 appropriation for V equina Bay. Forty petitions with 3700 names have already been sent to Con grass and more will be forwarded. An ab solutely united effort should be continued. The completion of the Improvements on the Bay will not only be of benefit to the O. P. road, but of immense value to Wes tern Oregon generally. Between San Francisco and Portland there tuts been a difference in freight rates of 7 cents per Chlnwe, That the UU introuuced by gena bushel on wheat, to which should be added t Mitchdl ..kntt tht Con(rfM- -broaate the arbitrary loss occasioned by grain being sold In the Portland market under the man- Ipulation of Portland buyers. The opening of Yaquina Hay to shipping generally is Intended to meet and redress these condi- tions. The prices paid to the producer must rise, When itt The competition of a second market, and that a much larger one than was pre viouslv available, k Introduced. and The larger market enjoys a cheaper freight rate of ten shillings a ton, or 7 cents per bushel. San Francisco rates instead of Portland rates will govern at Yaquina : "Because Yaquina harbor Is subject to far less charges on shipping than prevail at Portland, or even San Francisco. The pilotage, towage, dockage, and wharf and warehouse accommodations at Yaquina are under the control and management of the same people who have built the Oregon Pacific Railroad between the Willamette valley and Yaquina Bay." "But, once Yaquina harbor is opened to the grain ships, the same measures will open It at all stages of tide, and In almost any weather, to the coast wise and ocean going steamers, of which the fine steamship "Yaquina" k the pioneer. Then follow of necessity the recognition generally of the Yaquina route as the most rapid, cheap and easy between central Oregon and San Fran cisco, and all other ports on the Pacific Coast" All this means that Yaquina harbor U bound to come a trade center of great importance to the commerce of the North West Heretofore in obtaining appropria tions we have had to tell what we hoped for, now an actual experience brcks our de mands. The large freight and paascnajer traffic of the road speaks for what can be accomplished when greater conveniences are obtained. The success of the new route to San Francisco k already assured from its business during the last few months, and . - - . ... it has proven that good can be and are ue livered for one-third lew than ever before bv anv other route. As an incident of the treatment of the old route note the follow ing : "In December last goods were ship ped bv the O. P. R. from San Francisco to Corvallk, weight 2630 pounds. The charge so far was $8.03. The regular river boat happened to be abent,and the agent hipped these goods from Corvallk to Albany, 1 i miles, by the O. R. St N boat For this t J miles the merchant was charged $5.35. as against $8jj3 for the sea voyage from San Francisco to Yaquina and the railroad to Coeval lis, about 51a miles." Wheat wnkh has been sold at a premium of three to Ave cents ha gone out by way of Yaquina, due to low rates. The necessity of improvements being ex tensively continued at Yaquina have already been demonstrated. If so much can be ac complished over 72 mile of railroad, how much larger will be the scope and influence of the Improvement, as the line gradually stretches eastward along the 450 miles to Boise Qty and there makes it eastern con nection f All these arguments, so well pre sented by Mr. Nash, arc heartily endorsed by us as well as by the people of the valley generally. They show conclusively that no where on the Pacific Const are there improvements more needed or which will prove of benefit to a greater number of peo pie than those at Yaquina Bay. The Wil lamette valley k the garden of the North West, both in natural resources and in pop ulation, and Its people believe they are en titled to this much if not more. How ridi culous does it seem p see Congress quibble over such an Immense improvement when it k rushing through with Its eyes almost closed, a $350sooo building for Portland. Boycot In Oregon would be backacting if the name of those who submit to them were generally publkhed. Now that St. Valentine's day k past aren't you ashamed of yourself for sending that horrid valentine to vonr rival. He sr thought It was a joke. If you would see what splendidly drilled soldiers women would make (if they could fight with brooms) go to the Opera House on neat Tuesday evening. The advent of another railroad should not be allowed to place fictitious values on real estate. Things over done are injurious to the health as well as to business. It la good sense for a man and woman to make up if the differences are not very marked. A divorce suit brought in this city has been dropped. Throwing atones through the windows oi the home of a man you do not like, is worse than mobbing Chinamen. If the man owe you make him pay up legally. If he has njured you crimminaily, have him arrest' ed : but do not be hoodlums. Uafortaneto.

That our representatives In Congress be asked to prefer articles of Impeachment against Governor Squire, of Washington Territory for his course in the Seattle riot ; that Benj. F.

Whether this means another Seattle riot If the Chinamen refuse to leave In thirty days can only be decided by time.

While the extreme measures of the socialistic element of the agitators i inclin ed to be reacting It is probably off net by the action of law and order element, which at heart, k a anxlou to see the Chinese go, as the other clement, if not more so, One cla of people would assist the Celes. tki to the steamer wtih his bundle of ef fect ; the other would leave him glorious ly alone. The last is the only American course to follow. A people who arc law less rexl censuring as well as a foreign element that is bnonlou and has no In terests with otir own. The spirit to get rid of the Celestial Is an earnest one, and should be fostered ; but there should he only one watchword and that k law. O The M. A- T. has never seen a square block that would fit a round hole, nor vice r$a and believes It is not the pi oner thing to try to match them. The amc may be said In filling the pnrta for an uma- teur theatrical ; round actor should not he given square part, nor square actors round parts. It k often a good thing for a person to find, as the M. A. T. has, that he can not fit In either square, round or even ob long holes. There are many, though, who are good at tragedy and not at comedy, others can fill a dignified part and not low comedy, and still others who are good as the villain of the play and that k all. With amateurs, though, the public should not and does not, take a critical position in plac ing the blocks, but with a professional it k expected. O The M. A. T. has heard of a divorce case in which testimony was introduced to the effect that the husband only furnished round steak to eat. If one will vkit a butcher shop it will be observed that the round are generally on the block and go off fast in tlurir divorce errand. Loins are none to good for us, but It k no crime to eat rounds or even the horns if one chooses ; and we do not believe It would be a ground for di vorce If even cow's feet were the principal diet. O The M. A. T. the other day caught a couple gentlemen smelling of the turpen tine can of a well known painter. Ap proaching them he was given a snuff also when he was shocked to find instead of a turpentine odor the loudest kind of indica tions ot liquor, which told it own story. The incident show how easy it k for piin ter to cover up their bad habits. O The M. A. T. would like to know Whether a prominent Albany capitalist bought a certain horse because it hud a mall stomache, a was charged. Whether people mean business when thev av, they will repose on the Celestials by not employing them. Why a certain young man did not draw hk revolvers when waylaid by tramps. W hy so many men promise candidates for office that they wilt support them in the conventions when they don't intend to. Whether the members of the tax com mission will agree any closer than the jeo- ple. Whether bovs ever think that thev will grow to manhood. t osiair Treasurer's Heslce.
