FFICIAL I! and VaFEK. 4 MAN ABUI T TOW. Several months ajjo a citizen of Albany lost a fine cow. Though he advertised ex tensively for it the cow did not return. A week or two ago being about a mile from Albany he spied the long lost beast. A man had captured it and wni using the milk, not making any effort to find the owner ; on the contrary doing the opposite. .A sprightly offspring which the man claim ed to Know nothing about, was found hid. In the face of all this a demand was made for pasturage. The M. A. T. calls this an exceedingly peculiar case and requests the readers of the Dkmocrat to name it. O A few days ago the M. A. T. listened to a very heated and scientific argument between two V. S's. on the question of whether a horse has a brain, one claiming that he has, and the other that there is .nothing but membranes to what is called his Drain. Such terms as menecerebrumegetigleetls were slung around until we became dizxy. We refuse to settle the question. One thing certain, though, is, that the animal in ques tion has an immense sight of horse sense, whatever the structure of the nerve center may be. O The M. A. T. hears considerable com plaint at the freaks cut by some of the boys at the depot when the evening train comes in. O Waterloo is probably rightly named when it comes to some of the contests in dulged in there. One or two might be mentioned where not even Napoleon's boot strap was left. By the way people help themselves to soda water, wherever they board. Uitora to that healthv resort are not of the class to be bulldoied. O If Henrv Watterson were to call the M. A. T's sister such names as he has been ap plying to Victoria he would get a head put on him in short meter. He savs she is "the f it and florid old Queen." O The M. A. T. on Saturday took a ride who lAr. a in. t iarrows. of Shedd, after his fine four year old stallion, "Jackson." He shows good style and speed and will make a hne horse. Last vear at the Mate rair ne took the first prize over seven competitors for oeutg the best roadster in his class, which is a bigg! puff than anything we can say about him. A good roadster is a good thing, and that is what "Jackson is. O Probably nothing has ever been more energetically kicked at by the press of the northwest than the Immigration Hoard, ot Portland. Probably nothing lias ever dc served it more. Editors working and sweat in for Ounese pav dislike very much see mg a man like Carlisle having a healthy sinecure, with nothing to back it. Send it around. Several Albany people who attempted to co in swimming at the llav are reported as having backed out on the approach of the first wave, owing to the exceeding coldness of the water. At the same time Portland ladies would nlunire in and remain an hour. We rise for an explanation. O If those brincine soda water to Albany would furnish new corks each time they would make a big hit. S3. With this Usue Vol. XXI cloee. Next wesk the DEM"cR.Ar'will begin Vol. XXII. We are get tin ' too old to brag much when each birt.idav comes around. Such thing do very well with young papers, but they are unnecessary with well established journals like the Democrat. We are do ing very well, thank you. Like a Newport paper we Would like 100,000 subscribers ; but realize that we are doing uncommonly well to report 1.70th of that number. Next w.-ek will be the stereotyped time for an article headed Vol. XXII, hence wait until then for the usual thunder and lightning. The reason of there being 53 numbers this year is easily explained in the fact that there have been 53 Fridays during the year. A fgeceptiea- On last Monday evening the many friends of Mis Mary Wheeler, of the Warm Spring Agency, who is visiting here for a short time, gave her a reception at the residence of Mr. Ellis Knox, in this city. It was one of tlie pleasantest affairs of the summer,one greatly appreciated by those who attended. Such an evening of unalloyed enjoyment is .... . . a . a . r-iielv oasvcd. Miss Wheeler is held in , j a great fateem in Albany, and it is a great pri . ilege for her friends here to express thsir appreciatiM of h;r worth in this man ner. She will return to Warm Springs H two or t tree Dvi, having already visited with her sister, Mrs. Kitchen, at Stayton. Miss Wheeler teaches one of ths schools at the agency. e Twe Stannaries. Last Saturday night the butcher shop of Fred Goetz.on First Street, in this city, Was entered, the burglar getting in by prying off J the lock on the front doors. About six dol lars In money was taken from tlie drawer The same night the room of the brewer at the Star Brewery was entered, and it was claimed $145 was taken from a trunk in the room. Four or five twenties in a cloth, though, were left In the trunk. Some think there is a mi, understanding or mistake about the amount taken, or whether any was taken. There is no clue to the burglars. Aa Installs . n an a-" Me.un. Herman Si Mueller, of Buena Vista have recently invented and patented an attachment for cook stoyes which is a very ingenius contrivance. By handling a knob near the top of the stove the oven door Is thrown open and by another action of the same knob a grate containing articles being cooked is pulled out into view ready tor examination. The movement to the first position Is very easy. One of these contrivances may be een at John Briggs. It is not named, as we know of ; but we would call it "The housekeepers friend." A Mmall Fire al t:aaon. ganday morning about two o'olook the smo ( - house oonneofc-s t with Win. Werth's b I'chcr ihop Lehinm was discovered on lire. An alarm waa given. ottV-ring an op portunity for the tire department to do some running. The fire was quiekly extinguished. As the smoke hoase was near a raoge of wooden buildings it was a close call to good sizd conn tgration. FOR BARaM IN aaatll Pree4las. The report of Marshal Hays was filed. It showed that the total amount of taxes collected for this year were $ta ;.;., With - , v ' delinquent taxes. The reports of the Recorder and Tress, urer, which the Dkmocrat has already published, were tiled. The Keady liquor law ordinance was laid on the table until the second meeting in August. Refusal of II H Hewitt to act as Coun cilman In the Second Ward was accepted. A vote was taken for Councilman In that Ward resulting In a tie vote for W B Scott and Martin Payne. The matter was laid on the table until the next meeting. The Street Commissioner was Instructed to have the sidewalk repaired on Sixth Street from Walnut to the Cemetery. Property owners on the north side of Third Street from Baker to Montgomery, were instructed to have their sidewalks re paired. Property owners heretofore ordered to gravel First Street, were again ordered to do scwithin thirty days. The City Attorney was Instructed to confer with the Council in reference to a sidewalk ordered built on Ninth Street several months ago, the watk not having been built. A sidewalk was ordered built on Ferry .Street to south side of the alley in block at. Oralis mt sUBMil Priors. Ethel, only daughter of W. S. and Aure-1 lia Peters, died, in this city, last Friday evening,at the age of 6 years,' ter an Illness 1 of only three or four davs. The heart of the public goes out to the bereaved parents in their terrible affliction. Beautiful, prom ising little Ethel, the idol of her parents and relatives. God only can assuage the grief which the death of such a one creates. Only a few vears ago Ethel's brother Willie pass ed awav. Ethel was left, and now she is rone. Sometime it ia hard t tell whv th brightest and most nromisinir should die early. Those who had heard Ethel's sweet. pure vokc in song and knew her ways best, I will appreciate the depth of the sorrow the loss of such a child causes, not only to her parent,but to so many friends. I low drear v will be the household without her presence. Funeral services took place at the house Sabbath afternoon, Rev. S. G. Irvine preach' Ing the sermon. The remains of Ethel weie followed to the grave by a large con course of people,among shorn were several classes of Sabbath school children, with wlKm she had attended. Her remains were laid away beside those of her brother Willie, a beautiful display of flowers covering the grave. "Remember Me" was sung in an affecting manner. The same was sung by the deceased the evening previous to her death, and was one of her favorite sonirs. It brought tears to every eye present, new tear aaoeft. Mr. 1 ilia m Uarrowa. of Shedd. has a couple colts sired by Oneco, rarely equalled for form and speed, and as well several fine I cows, yearlings, calves, etc. He would like to exhibit these against any in the county. I We know of many others who have fine I stock. In fact marked improvement is no-1 tk. cable in our count v in the last few years in this matter. The idea suggests itself from the above that, if a county fair cannot be organized, we should at least hold, some I where in the county, a stock show, in order I to give many who are ambitious, an oppor-1 tumtv to diaolav their fine colts, mares.

P. train, which evidently was an at tempt to wreck it. The train was coming down the grade this side of the Summit, when the engineer saw a rail lying across the track. He reversed the engine ; but not quick enough to avoid striking the rail. Two wheels of the engine were thrown off and the train njn nearly a hundred yard in this rnanncr- A,n hours delay re sulted, and little other damage. No clue was obtained as to who placed trje rail on the track. Watiarr- Hackieinau vVeddtag, On last Wednesday evening, at the resi dence of the bride's uncle, J. L. Cowan, ia this city, Mr. Thos.

The Democrat unites with many friends in ex tending congratulations to thi most werthy young couple. May they live long and pro per.

A Portland Sunday paper makes the ! hoodlumiam around the Albany depot of such a dastardly and blood-thirsty nature that it Intimates several of the boys ought to be shot. The paper says that "here in Portland we have a police to make boys behave themselves but in our country towns there is no local irovcrnment." We admit Albany hoodlums arc bad enough, we have no excuses to make for them ; but the oicture is overdrawn. Our hoodlums do not compare with Portland hoodlums, and they are no worse than the "hoods" of our ndsThborine citie. All there is about it a hoodlum is a bad institution in any form. The following from the paper re- f erred shows how ridiculous a metropolitan paper can be.

FORT MILLER at 1 iKa ti unr. He u ad Jam .son arreader anuria Hlns law. Albany was thrown Into a fci'er heat Monday morning by the arrival of Jim Starr, of the Alsea country, direct from be yond the Alsea, with full particulars of the capture of W. W. Saunders and his dog Snider Jamison. As Starr was present when the drop was gotten on the escaped mur derer the public were Immediately satisfied that the genuine article was In tow this time. Mr. Slarr was In great demand and good natttrcdly told the story over and over again in his very original style. Of course a Dkmocrat man was on hand to hear It. We give the facts as nearly 11s we can get them from all source. Among the first men to start on the track of Saunders was J. A. Richardson, once a private policeman at Astoria and again on the Portland police force. He has been employed In various capacities in this city. Mr. Richardson tracked the escaped man to near Miller's, across the river to Spring Hill and them e to the place of capture, runninu on to every night camp fire but one or two. He stuck' to his clue regardless of Chestnut stories and is entitled to much credit for his work. Saun ders and his pal left their curds all along the tine. He now lays it to the slmplenese of Jamison ; but his own conduct shows that he was not sltarp at all. At Philomath Jamison bought a pair of shoes and other things, and a short distance beyond there Saunders went into a farm house and slept couple of hours. They seem to haveusedj no discretion as to how they traveled. 1 hir course .i loM.mN the Alsea. When they reached the head tide on the Alsea, Friday the 16th they called at Jos RycrafU, where Saunders asked for opium and pa per, the latter of which only they got. They remained with Rycraft for dinner, after which Saunders went to bed and slept several hour. In the evening they bought an old boat of Rycraft and floated down the river a mile when they camped over night. The next morning they started again, when they were overturned and lost all their blankets and provisions. At Alsea Bay they obtained more blankets and pro visions, aa well as two bits worth of opium for gaunders, a man there dividing with him. From thia point they seem to have gone south along the beach. Saunders had an interesting conversation with an innocent old man named Mitchell. Mitchell asked S. if he were not Maunders. He was told no, that hla name was Ilrown. and stuffed the old gentleman about being from Ken tucky. "I knew I had made a mistake then," said Mr. M. They were then past ing themselves off as beach miners. When Richardson reached Alsea he run across Stage, whom he engaged to act as his guide, Mr. Starr knowing every inch of the country. Together they followed the snail like motions of Saunders and Jamison. On Monday of last week from a prominent position they caught sight of the two men on the beach near tlie mouth of the Alsea, and were afterwards within half a mile of them. Saunders, though, carried a rifle, and they knew it would not do to be too savagely familiar with him, so they dogged them for an opportunity to get the drop on them. Friday they were on their heels at Cape Perpetual at the mouth of Cape Creek. They arranged an ambush behind a tog, when they were joined by D. B . Montcith, of this city, and F. P. Hogan, o Keeeburg, who had been south as far as Florence, on the Siuslaw, to intercept them. They had been watching for Sau riders about seven days at the time of the meeting. Before this they had been to Alsea, and ob tained information which favored their get ting the men quicker by heading them off. Saunders' slow traveling worked against it The four men remained waiting all day Friday and Friday tUtffat I bu lhe two men ST W SBF did not put in an appearance, as they were. It was afterwards learned, oft with some horses hunting a trail. Friday morning about 5 o'clock Saunders and Jamison were seen from the detectives hiding place on the beach. Jamison came along ahead, a seems to have been their practice, when Richardson, who looked like a stockman. went out to meet him, as decoy. He talk ed about stock and showed him a good place beyond for a camp. Then he strolled up to aunders and they sat on the beach and talked about hunting for stock ranges for half an hour, when Richardson showed launders where his hired man was camped, and went on towards the beach. Saunders walked towards lamiaon' camp. When opposite the log where the three men were ttmbushcd, and about fifty feet from them ,rt.r,..j i.v the worJ "Halt." Uttered by Hogan, which he did. Upon J beto,. xod to hold up his hands he threw up I hU hanJ The other one," was cried, and up that v ent, and the gun fell on the ground. Hogan and Montcith each. had shot guns loaded witii pistol balls and Starr a Winchester rifle. The former two were leveled at him. Had he but stirred his right hand towards his gun it would have been instant death, and he knew it. Those who thought he would die game will be disap pointed at his prompt surrender. Mr. Mon tcith nut his handcuffs on him while 1 Hogan covered him. Jamison was cap tured with no trouble while cooking some j onions and potatoes. He is as much a J Texas ranger as a three year old boy. 1 Saunders took it easily. Said he would get J a new trial any way, and would come out I all right. He seemed to have no hesitation I about talking and informed hU captors that I if they had not got him then he would soon have been with a friend who would have hid him for several months, when he would I have taken a sailing vessel for Australia j He told about his crossing the river below I Albany.swimming most of the way, knock- ing off a toe nail, etc. He was much griev- ed at lamison's insisting on taking a tin cup back to a house, in Spring Hill, where he had gotten milk.and said that gave them away. From Spring Hill Saunders told about going practically as narrated above. Also that while jn Spring Hill he saw George Burkhart from the upper story of a house and thought from a description of Hogan that he was that gentleman. While talking with Richardson on the beach he said that he suspected that he was not all right and was on the point of ordering him to hold up, when he changed his mind, thinking it would be safe to get Jamison and then take to the woods. He did not give any of his friends away but said that he had been post ed every morning since he started, except the last few days, about how matters were Of whom he obtained his rifle it is not yet learned. He had a revolver at first, but said it would not work and so threw it away. After the capture Starr started directly for Albanv on the horse Richardson had rode, & CO'S. FULL LINE one owned by Judge Whitney, while Mon teifli, Hogan and Richardson obtained hories.took Saunders and Jamison to Gard ner, thence to Roseburg by vay of Drains, where they were Uxlged in the county jail ovc 1 high .-.Li v they were brought to Albany on the noon train, which stopped at the junction of Ferry Street and the railroad, and taken to the county jail, where, not withstanding all precautions to keep mat. ters still the program had been anticipated, and an Immense crowd was waiting. Both Sauaders and Jamison were stinking cigars. Tlteir traveling etothfa had been changed. Saunders was tanned and very thin. He mted cool, but did not seem to care to face the large crowd. General ex pressions showed the universal appreciation of the capture of the escaped men. Even u slight cheer was raised when they were placed behind the bar. note. The place where the capture was made Is about thirty miles south of Vaqnlna Bay on the coast. When captured Saunders had $50 on his person. A note was found In a pocket ad. dresaed to Miss Minnie Allison. It stated to her that he had a presentiment the' night before that he was going to be riddled with bullets, and he asked her to see that he have a Christian burial and that his parents be notified. Upon his request Mr. Montcith tore the note to pieces. Theie is great curiosity to know where Saunders got his Winchester rifle. He has since told that It was his before the shoot ing scrape. This Is not believed though. The time when he crossed the river he sets at about four o'clock, and tut told two dif ferent stories alKMtt the place, one being near Milters and the other by the Farmer's Warehouse. When told to hold up hla hands, Jamison, who cannot see very well, thought it was Saunders, who, he afterward said, had tried that on him only the day before, and he simply laughed. Observing though, that there were two men he quickly obey ed. Though only about one hundred and fifty feet away tie heard nothing at all of tlie capture. When asked why he had not a revolver lie said S. tried to get him to carry one ; but he had'nt done anything and didn't need one. I le seems to have been used as tort of a pack horse and ad vance guard. A regular watch has been placed over Saunders end the strictest precaution will be taken to see that there are no more es apes. Haunders will not be sentenced until the October term, it is said to be too Utte to obtain a new trial, it being necessary to move at the same term. The present in dlcatlone are that nothing but suicide can save hi neck. The case though will prob ably be appealed to the Supreme Court.

The ftaaUaaa ridges During the high water of 1883, when the Oregon Railway & Navigation Company had a lease of the Oregonian Railway Com pany's lines, the bridges over the north and south forks of the Santiam river were wash ed away, and were never rebuilt. Since that the people living beyond the destroyed bridges have been shut off from railroad communication. C. N. Scott, receiver of the Oregonian Railway Company, said yes tenia v that on Thursday the work of re building the above structures will be com- menced. A truck has been sent to Tuala tin to get the pile driver that will be used in the work. The bridges will be finished in forty days. In fifteen davs railroad communications will be restored over them The iron for these bridges will arrive from San Francisco in a few days. One cargo of steel rails for the road has already arriv- ed at 8an Francisco. Portland News.
