As Albany Girl. - "Two little girls,
one named Maud, from Albany, and the
other Vina, from Forest Grove, came here
last week, as they express it, to "see life,"
and poor little things they did see life, and
with a vengeance. They fell into the
hands of some hackmen and were soon
'staked out in the notorious Baldwin
Lodging House. Since then the Jehus have
been supplanted by a barber and a waiter.,
both, of course, gentlemen of education
and high social standing, -who have lived
on the earnings of these wayward girls ever
since. The result It, these mere children,
who seemed proud when called chippies,'
will have to return to their homes next
week, as their health as well as their virtue
is gone forever." Welcome.
Brownsville. Brownsville, situated in
tne southern part of the countv, about 20
miles from Albany on the Calapooia crek
where it enters the valley from the foot
hills, is a flourishing town of about 650 in
habitants. No lovelier site for a town can
easily be found. As early as 1853 a woolen
mill was built here. It was burned down
but was immediately rebuilt, and is now a
profitable business. The Narrow Gauge
road passes through the town, and the sur
rounding country is wealthv in agricultur
al pursuits. The place is well supplied
with a good public school, and mercantile
and manufacturing establishments, aside
from the woolen mill, necessary in the lo
cality. "Resources of Oregon.'
A Good Ex ample.- -Thctollovi ing from
the .'. O. of Pendleton shows the way
Court was run in Umatilla county by Judge
Shattuck, and may well be dreamed over
by the Court to convene here next week :
'Court was opened on the 5th inst., at 2 p.
in . the grand jury empanneled and sworn,
the docket called and a trial by jury had
that day. Then the shot fell thick and fast,
and in the ten and one half days the term
lasted the court tried sixteen jury cases,ren
dered nine decrees, disposed of fifty-nine
other cases in one way or another, and ad
mitted five persons to citizenship."
Only Foi'RTEEX. Saturday night four
teen tramps were, a the depot when the
south bound train passed out, seven of
whom took sleepers, while the other wait
ed for the morning train, preferring to
rusticate on the Sound, where gentle
breezes blow and the- nights arc refeshing,
to spending their vacation in Southern Cali
fornia with their brothers. A good natur
ed tramp by standing in with the brake
men and throwing wood on for them is
said t be able to ride about as far as he
pleases, particularly during the night.
A Mortar Item. Saturday evening an
Albany lady was passing in front of the
new Strahan block when a large quantity
of mortar left the mortar bed, through the
agency of a hoe in the hands of the mixer,
and landed on her dress, nearly ruining it.
The husband, of course, was mad, and
served a notice on the contractors to call
and settle, which also ofc course, they did
not do. It was reported that the mortar
manipulator was discharged.
Not for Eighteen Years. "It has
never rained so much in June In Oregon for
eighteen years." said an old settler this
O of - '
marning, "and all the old settlers say so.
Familiar words by the way, sounds we
have been hearing for years. Too much or
not too much it is a fact that things are
growing so fast that one can almost hear
the soil squeak as wheat, potatoes, etc.,
rush up through the atmosphere. We only
fear too much of an upward strife.
A Safe Company. We mean the Al
bany Insurance Co. A policy placed in it
will he paid promptly without any unjust
haggling in case of a loss, and that is what
the insured is always after. Is your resi
dence insured in it. By all means see that
it is for thus you are not only secure but
are helping home institutions.
A Sleepy Act. A man named Cum
mins, while asleep or intoxicated, walked
out of a second story door at Mrs. Mur
ray's boarding house last Tuesday. He
was awake when he struck the ground.
The fall did not kill him nor even stir him
up much.
Will Oo To Euusxs. Prof. J. M. Wd
Hams, of Halsey, recently a candidate for
school superintendent in this county, has
lieen elected t tuaeli tin: Mbllfl schools of
Kagene City th coming year, a positiou he
will no doubt nil with ability.
Albany. The "Resources of the State
of Oregon," just issued by the State agri
cultural society, says the following nice
things about this city : "Albany is the
county sent, and has a population of about
3000. It is on the bank of the Willamette
on the western edge of the county, and Is
surrounded by a beautiful stretch of prai
rie country in a high state ol cultivation.
I Icrc the Oregon Pacific crosses the Ore
gon St California railroti,and the Lebanon
branch of the Oregon & California railroad
switches off. Steamers ply between here
and Portland all the year, except perhaps n
couple of months August and Septem
ber. It Is a thriving place. There are
large milling establishments, foundries,
etc. The water power used for propelling
milling machinery, and for other pui jKises
in Albany, is brought in a commodious
canal fourteen miles from the South San
tiam, at Lebanon. The town is supplied
with a good system of graded schools, in
operation ten" months of the year. It is
also the site of the Albany Collegiate In
stitute, an institution under the manage
ment of the Presbyterian church. The
public buildings, both countv and citv, are
elegant, commodious structures.
Recorder s Offk'K. TheRecordcr'sof
tice is being remodeled and enlarged in a
manner to suit tli." Dkm.k r at. A large
arch has been cut through, joining the of
fice on the south formerly occupied by l)r
wbrey, making the office now consist of
four rooms, the two middle rooms prac
tically forming one. This affords plenty of
room far a large crowd, such even as a sa
loon case or the barracks young men would
draw on u Saturday afternoon. Several
conveniences, such as stamU. that can be
uHilized by reporters, etc., will be intro
duced. Parties reading this arc requested
not to investigate the matter, as the work
isonlv in its middle stages. Mr, llenton
solemnly requested us not to say anything
about the matter for several days" until
things are properly arranged ; but Items
are remarkably scarce, and this one suits
us so well that we follow the course fol
lowed by newspaper men generally, willing
even to' submit to the displeasure of our
popular Recorder for the sake of a real
live item that can stand alone without the
aid of a pair of shears.
Goon Byk, O. & C The letters O. & C
R. R. have been as familiar to us for yearsi
as the family Bible; but now we must say
good bye to them, they must be laid away
in our scrap books for future rcfercacc.
It will be seen by our time table that the
proper name of the road is the Mt. Shasta
route of the Southern Pacific Lines. The
company has just ordered us to make tne
change and we make it reluctantly. Not
much Southern to us up hetc in Oregon
and we are more ML Hood than Mt. Shasta
by a hundred per cent. But "let her go,
Gallagher," the new company is an enter
prising one and has barrels ef money to
spend, and futher it is a big advantage to
be the end of a long road, for the proprie
tors are always working to get everybody
to buy as long a ticket as possible. The
great' Southern Pacific empties right here
in the Willamette Valley, and that means
with us. Any name soon becomes familiar
if there is a clink to it.
Charmed with Rapk. Wednesday
night Constable S. P. Barger arrived in this
city with Arthur Burton, a mulatto aged
about eighteen, brother-in-law of Minor
Jackson, of Brownsville. The charge
against him was that of having committed
rape on Elixa Harrington, aged about six
teen, n niece of Mrs. Zlner, with whom she
had been living. The story of the girl was
that hejentcreu her room Friday night,
told her he would kill her If she made any
not, ehloroforined her, and committed
the act. He was arrested Monday, taken
before Squire Averlll Tuesday, waived ex
amination, was placed under $1000 bonds,
and brought to this city as stated. Great
excitement prevailed in Brownsville over
the affair. The girl is confined to her room
and is said to be out of her mind at least
part of the time, now and even before Fri
day evening. Burton says he Is Innocent
and will come out all right. As nearly as
we can learn there are two sides to the case,
and hence we refrain from comment, not
desiring to prejudice the matter. If the
charge should prove true there Is no pun
ishment too severe for the offense.
Board ok 'Ira ok, The regular month
ly meeting of the Board of Trade was held
at the G. A. R. hall last Tuesday, about
twenty members being present. A com
munication was read from the Portland
AVtt'j proposing to illustrate the city in u
65,000 edhion of the paper for $300, or
write it up for $50 a column, Laid on the
table. The committee on preparing mat
ter for an immigration circular asked futh
er time, which was granted. After con
siderable discussion as to whether the cir
cular should contain advertisements the
committee was instructed to ascertain
what portion of the cost of the circular
could he paid by advertisements. The
committee on a place for meeting reported
that the G. A. R. hall could be had for $2
for regular meetings and $2.50 for special
meetings, and the committee was Ordered
to make a contract for the Mime. Judge
Powell, W. E. Turrell and M. K. Pogue
were appointed to investigate the matter
of a salary for secretary and treasurer.
Notice was given of a proposed amend
ment to the constitution providing tor a
committee of three on advertising and im
migration and hanging the time of meet
ings from Monday to Tuesday evenings.
An adjournment was had until Tuesday
evening next, when the committee on the
immigration circular will report,
A Comley Joke. Some few days since
a stranger arrived in the city, and, meet
ing Cap. Humphrey, asked that gentle
man if one J. B. Comley resided In the
city. On being informed that he did, the
stranger asked Cap to introduce hi.11 to
that gentleman, which Cap in his most
suave' and genteel manner proceeded to do.
The stranger conversed wilh Mr. Comley
for awhile and patted with him but met
him the next day, and renewed the ac
quaintanceship of the day previous by con
versing upon general topics, when Mr
Comlev incidently remarked that he had
come from the State of Maine and named
the town, whereupon the stranger stated
that he had been in that town quite often,
so the conversation turned upon their ac
quaintances in that place ana they learned
that they were mutually acquainted with
many of the citizens of the down east b urg.
The stranger was in the town several davs,
and quite often met Mr. Comley with
whom he held Interesting conversation
about the people in the far off citv of his
nativity. Finally it leaked out that the

A Great Scheme. A man with a pat
ent thills is scaring the people half to death
in Grand Rapids, Mich. The thills are cal
culated to be used in driving runaway
horses, as they are made to become de
tached from the carriage when the run
away is in its eiddiest period, allowing the
vehicle to stop and the horse to run alone excises he College last week com
alone if he wants to. The wretched exhib- Pete demonstrated the fact that the chap
stranger was the youngest brother of Mr
Comley who at no time had had the lost
suspicion of the stranger's Identity. J.
acknowledged the "corn" and set it
liberally for the "boys."
A SiooKsTioN. The Commencement
itor is accompanied by a woman and a
horse, and whenever she strikes a town she
drives the animal upon the principal street
and lets him run awav. And how he doe
run ! The woman meanwhile waves her
hands and screams, and acts like she was
about to go into a fit, while the spectators
crowd the street and stand frozen with
horror, when presto, change. The horse
becomes detached, gallops another block
and stops, and the buggy quietly -lows up,
and the woman jumps out and laughs, and

Oregon Beacty." Many people in
Oregon, and especially in Linn county,
will remember the beautiful chestnut bay
mare with the long mane and tail owned
by Mr. O. P. Adams, of Millers, in this
county, and which he sold to M. D. Reed,
of San Francisco. To such the following
dispatch from New York to the Examiner
will lie of regretful interest : "The Oregon
Beauty, or long maned horse, hlch was
valued at $25,000, was suffocated by fire at
Brighton Beach last night. I he horse had
been at the beach two days. It had been
on exhibition throughout the West for
some time previous and was brought from
California by M. D, Reed last week. The
horse was a beautiful chestnut, with a white
mane and tail, the former being nine feet
long and the tail sweeping the ground.
The forctop was fonr feet long. The
Beaut v was a vears old, weighed 1250
pounds and stood sixteen hands high. The
tire was caused by lightning, and started
in the lofts of the stable, but was soon ex
tinguished. The Oregon Beauty was then
found dead, although in the next stall a
worthless "plug" stood uninjured.
A Musical Genu s. One of the un
fortunate ones at the Goldendale fire was
a Mr. Miller, who was running a music
store there. Being an experienced piano
tuner Mr Miller immediately started out
to earn a lively hood in this manner. He is
now in the city, and last Tuesday, at Black

el is entirely inadequate as a piece in which
to hold commencement cxcrcUc. Thi
suggests the propriety of erecting at some
time in the future a ba4 on the College
grounds for such a purpose. A cheap,
plain building, to arranged that it could be
used for a gymnasium, if thought proper,
would answer all purposes. The growing
importance of our College as an education
al institution makes it necessary to keep
up with the times. The proper place to
hold commencement exercises is In the
College buildings, which makes such a
hail as suggested the more a necessity.
Some of the most lasting monuments that
have been built have been College Halls
for special purposes. Sibley Hall, at Cor
nell, for instance, and just now would be a
fine opportunity for some Oregon man to
leave a monument here that would cost
but little. For instance, how would Cor
bitt Hall sound, or Hall, after some
Linn county man. Or, in time the usual
method might be resorted to. The matter
is worth thinking about,
Lebanon. Lebanon is near the edge of
the foothills, about 14 miles east of Albany.
The population at this time is about 70a
The surrounding country is a fine grain
growing section. It has good public
schools, and supports the Santiam Acad
emy, an excellent school under the auspi
ces of the M. E. Church. Lebanon is con
nected with Albany by a branch of the O.
Si C. R. K , and the Narrow Gauge road
passes within three miles. Fine and ex
tensive flouring mills are located here,
grinding upwards of 50,000 bushels of
wheat yearly. The power is obtained from
the South Santiam by means of a canal,
which proceeds to Albany, furnishing wa
ter power for the mills there. Lebanon is
a flourishing town. "Resources of Oregon."

HOW MEN DIE.
If we know all the methods of approach
adopoted by an enemy we are the better drag store
enabled to ward off the danger and post
pone the moment when surrender becomes
inevitable. In many instances the inher
ent strength of the body suffices to enable it
to oppose the tendency toward death. Many
however have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little or no help. In
other cases a little aid to the weakened
Lungs will make all the difference between
sudden death and many years of useful life.
Upon the first symptoms of a Cough, Cold
or any trouble of the Throat or Lungs, give
that old and well-known remedy ooschee s
