Advert isitj.The benefits of adver
tising were plainly noticeable yesterday,
ays an Astoria paper, when at one grocery
store which pays the printer liberally each
month, a full corps of clerks were Busy all
day, while at another the proprietor sat
mournfully in the door reading a paper,
while his clerk paced the floor when the
rain was falling and playad ball when the
sun shone. Still some people begrudge the
paper a few dollars per month for blowing
their business.
Strick It. II. C. Clement 'eft on the
Tnesday train for his home at Tacoma,
Mrs Clement remaining with her parents
at Shcdd. uClem" has had good fortune
staring him in the face lately. One of his
first enterprises at Tacoma was the pur
chat4ng of a forty acre tract, on some one
else s money, for $30 an acre, which he
eventually sold for $1000 an acre. We
understand he has property left, after hav
ing sold nearly $200,000 worth, that if
kept a few years will probabtv make a
millionaire of him. No one deserves it
more than Mr. Clement and Albany peo
ple will rejoice in his success.

Sfeoorora Accident. About 2 o'clock
last Tuesday, on the McConnell place
near this city, Charlie Dougherty and Fred
Davis, a young man, who lives across the
rlycr, who was working for him, were load
ing a gun with some shells, when a very
serious accident happened. The former
after the gun was loaded went to place it
on a box, and at the same time young
1 ,i is passed in fiotit of the gvm. The
hammer accidental! v struck the edge of
the box and the gun, a musket, was dis
charged, the full loud of shot entering one
of the calves of Davis, causing a danger
ous wound. Dougherty jumped on a horse
and rode to this cltv, returning with Dr.
Maston. who dressed the wound.
Dr. Maston, who ha just returned, states
that Davis's leg will have to be amputated
n the morning.
It Was a Temperance Lesson. The
Eugene Jtmrmal thus talk In reference to
Grant Osborne, who died from an over
dose of morphine in this city recently, in
a manner that must make our voting men
top and think: "We have known Grant
Osborne since he was a little boy. When
a little hoy he used to spend much of his
time at our house, and was one of the moat
ndustrious, trustworthy and bilging little
bovs we ever knew. Grant's misfortune
and death were caused by getting into bad
company and acquiring a taste for strong
drink before he arrived at maturity. But
for these bad associates he would have been
1 blessing to society and an honor to his
family He was naturally an excellent
boy, smart, honest and industrious."
A v v ect t n The following from the
Salem I 'idt.tr about a Marion county mill
Is very poetical and touching. Those of
our readers who peruse it without an a- f ul
feeling of goneness will pleae report to
headquarters : "And so the old mill at
Willsburg has shut down after more than
a quarter ot a century of service. It was
the oldest saw mill anywhere In Oregon
There is something very pathetic about the
milt. At first it wa set up in the midst of
a virgin forest and now it stand surround
ed by the stumpsthe remnants of those
maicstic giants that towered heavenward
nodding their evergreen plume to the
floating clouds. But the mighty giants are
gone forever ; gone is the old mill with it
busy hum ; gone is the manly axeman and
his tot; cart and sturdy oxen : but the triad-
some stream that whirled to the wheel of
the defunct saw mill still remains to turn
the spindles of factories. Its fountains arc
perpetual and many generations will listen
to it ceaseless murmuting.

The 4TI1. There was nearly a hlgcra of
Albany on the occasion of the annual
screech of the eagle. The train from this
city tpok people to Portland . Yaqulna
Bay and CorvallU, and already a large
number were In Seattle. The biggest
crowd went to Corvallis drawn by the O
N. G. program. That city was packed
full of people, from alt quarters of the Val
Icy and Benton county, among the number
present being a Democrat man with 1
dull pencil. Probably six . seven thou
sand people were there. At about ten
o'clock a parudo was given headed by a
liberty car, full of little girls representing
the states, which was followed by the six
military compaule present, the Eugene
and Corvallis band, etc? At the Court
House the procession stopped. A tnrm read
an article beginning "we the people of the
United States" and Judge McFadden de
llvcredthe oration. The corner stone of the
new Court House, which promise to lie the
best in the State was laid, Judge Kclsay
delivering astartllngly brilliant addres on
1 1 ie occasion of the ceremony. At a o'oclock
the drill and sham battle by companies
from Corvallis, Salem, Eugene, Madeay,
Whiteakerand Albany began. The ground
was peculiarly adapted to the purpose, be
ing the open place near Mary's bridge.
The sham battle wa well planned and was
carried out in a manner to excite the Im
mense concourse of people that lined the
commons and crowded forwarded to wit
ness the spectacle. Near the bank of the
river on the rise of ground were breast
works and a cannon. It was held by
three companies. In the middle of the
tiekl is a gulch. The attacking force was
on the north, wnlle along the gulch on the
south was a line of picket. The rattle of
the musketry, the attacking and retreating
made a live exhibition. Finally a squad of
men surprised the enemy In the rear, a
combined attack was made from the front
by the way of a plank across the arm of
the gulch, aud the enemy was their amid
much enthusiasm. We were particularly
proud 9l the Albany company during the
entire celebration, and all of trie militia con
ducted themselves in a creditable manner.
A hose race on the main street followed,
Albany and Hidcm making picked up team
n order to have a contest. The time ali
around was slow. It even took the Cor
vallis team in tights ; seconds to run le
than a hundred yard,unreel 1 50 feet of hose
and get water. AHunv m.i.'4 second,
and Salem aajf. In the evening a dance
was had at the city hail. A 1 1 o clock the
train left for home, several being obliged to
-ciiiaiii ior Mil in 01 sianuiug room. nunc
who went to I'ortlaud report an immense
time, and the Bay people at leat plenty
sea brecxe. The weather was uncommon
ly fine for the 4th of July.
A gentleman who attended the celebra
tion at Sciosay a big time was had, an Im
mense sight of life being displayed.
Aiirm ! The Salem Stmrsimam gives an
extended account of the firemen's excur
sion to Albany, and closes with It usual
donkey's btey at our city : "The people of
Albany treated their visitors very hospita
bly, and everybody returned with the best
of feelings toward them. Their city con
tains some fine business houe, but their
streets Indicate a terrible unwillingness to
wnik road taxes. They are abominable
and so are the idewalk. The street are
narrow, and even then three-fourth of
their width i grown to dg weed two feet
hiijh I here arc but two that show anv
signs of travel, and those are In very poor
Condition. The excursionists were all glsd
that they lived in a city of Salem's beauty,
and were glad to get back to it." Right
here allow us to remark that we are glad
that you live there too.
