Mr Keet met mIm Wilkin at the New Orleans exposition. A strong attachment prang up between them, which terminated in marriage a abort time age at the bride's home in Line county, Oregon. Mr. K was one of the head men in building tbe Brooklyn bridge and came all tbe way to Oregon ffcer his bride. Considerable ro mance. Both are deserving of congratula tions. A broad faced tramp, who claimed to have once fed a press on the Chicago Tri mm, solicited of us a tight fitting cap, last Friday, stating, with a wide grin, that the slouch hat he wore came off too easily when he stole rides on freight trains. He charac terised the O. & C. aa the meanest road he had been on ; the number of empty cars, though, made riding comparatively easy. Any war," he aid, "an hour's ride is worth two days footing it, if we do get bounced once in awhile " O Considerable beef is shipped from Albany to Portland butchers by express. It b cut up, neatly put up in light cheese cloth and sent safely to its destination. Why should not this be made quite an industry. O Some amusement was occasioned at the depot a few days since by a large crowd guessing at the sex of a fire year old Chinese girl. Her dress and face made her look like either. The Celestials, anyway, young and eld, are hard to sabey. O The city election Is almost here. The importance of filling our municipal offices with first-class men can not be urged too strongly. The office of Councilman partic ularly is of more concern than is generally conceded it. Let's have no foolishness in the matter O The number of midnight brasr.a ,n Sec ond street in the Third Ward, just east of the aantlam canal, suggests that the peace of the people of that vicinit y could be great ly enhanced by a few strict proceedings. O The lees of a few dollars to a merchant is nothing very serious ; yet it hurts his feel ings when he finds that he has been taken in by a full fledged "dead beat." No won der. Next to skunks and cayotes the dead beat is entitled to a piace. Remember that the dead beat is the one who contracts a debt with no intention of psying it Do not confound it with the honest man who will pay if he can. The man, though, who In tends well enoughbut knows he will ncrer do anything from years of experience, will not be done an injustice if he gets the title ; nor the bummer who par cash for whiskey and has his groceries chafked down. The M. A T. often wonders that business men here do not combine, as they do in some places, to protect themselves against such dead beats as Dr. Boatman is now considered. O It pays to employ well known and reli able people in all branches of industry. A lady who had a dress made by a stranger recently got in a "peck of trouble" over the manner in which it was made, having to have it remade entirely, it fitting some like a gunny sack. This item is in the interest of Albany's dress makers who are estab itsneri here. O The If. A. T. rejoices in the prospects of a live business winter in Albany. ac law Nnaia?ns. Last Tuesday morning Mr. Abe Hackle roan arrived in Albany from Crook county after a fair kind of a trip. He left Prine yille Friday afternoon. At the time several Inches of dust was the program, no rain having fallen. In the mountains only about three inches of snow prevailed in any place. The transition from the dust of Crook to the mud of Linn made a marked change in appearances. Mr. 'Hackleman was accom panied by a M W Hindman, who stopped at Lebanon, where he will remain during the winter. The first of the week Mr John Conner transferred his interest in the First. National Bank of this city, to L Flinn, S E Young, and Geo E Chamberlain. Mr Flinn will as sume the Presidency and Mr Chamberlain the position of Cashier. Mr Conner, who has been actively and most successfully en gaged in business here for a third of a cen tury will retire to private life and seek the rest he has earned a right to. a sate Tax levy. The State board on Monday made the following tax levy : Current expenses. 1 19-30 mills ; State University, 1-10 mill. Total 3 1-30 mills. Last year the levy was 1 7 10 mills, 1 13-20 mills more than this vear. This is caused nartiail v bv the j - m j dropping of the half mill tax for the Indian war debt. The levy this year is lower than ever before. Testis- the Jails. Owen Bartlett has been arrested in Salem charged with stealing an overcoat. He was held to await the action of the Grand Jury under $300 bonds. Bartlett is evidently testing the different tails in the valley. He will be remembered as the gentleman of leisure who stole Mr Vunk's boat in this city, and boarded at the Hotel de Smith for several weeks. Leg Broken.

Those who attended from Albany speak In high terms of the treatment they received from Brownsville people Rev. C. Sperry,of that city, delivered the address of welcome. It was responded to by Rev.

A significant fact The price of wheat in Albany is four or five cents more than in neighboring cities not touched by the Oregon Pacific. The furniture business in Albany lias been of flattering proportions during the past year. . Mr Steve Deckard is rebuilding the furn iture factory heretofore run by Mr A B Woodin at the west end of Third St., and will manufacture furniture for the whole sale trade, likewise furnishing it for Mr Woodin. Robinson & West intend sawing a large amount of lumber the coming winter in an ticipation of a live building year for 1887. Considerable wheat is going to California by way of the Oregon Pacific At various times woolen mills and paper mills, etc., have been suggested for Albany. This winter would be a good time to act new enterprises. v ere some one to offer to start an im portant enterprise in Albany without asking a big subsidy there would be danger of a public collapse just from surprise. The spirit of the present day seems to be to see how much can be squeezed from the public. Eugene City has erected more bricks the past ye at than any other place in Oregon outside of Portland.

This time It was a crowd of Corvallis roughs who played star parts. They had come down the evening previous and had been on a genuine spree through the night. .Night- watch Jones on hearing a disturbance In the vicinity of Miss Lord's went to the place when the crowd scattered and ran, not, though, until he had had an opportunity to use his club on a half breed, who was one of the party, lie also fired several shots in order to frighten the party, which entered a back they had in the neighborhood and whipped their horses for home. Most of them are known and will be presented with a warrant for disturbing the peace If they appear in our city again soon, Tbe bouse mentioned is getting notorious for its mid night rows and should be abolished.

He estimates that the ladder can be repaired by two system for $2,500 and $3,350 respectively. Many he lieve these sums are more than the original cost of the ladder. T fhst Ptlle.
