Homk moat SKATrtK Whru the 7.45 train came to Saturday eveuing a Urge crowd was proacut at the depot to meet the Albany hose team ou iU return from Seattle, crowned with an excellent record The boya jumped from the train with root ten and Hying colore. The rooster were on then hats aud th colore on their ooats. The latter read, "Speed Race Champions, Time 27 ML" This waa out enough fortho team Paddle Wheel, ' Jack Warner, who waa lb luminated a lib the inscription, "It is a cold day when we get left." We inspected the boys were ai.xious to have Portland' twin dling firemen see them as they came through that oily. Thu tioee tram was oonduoted to the Marry house, where at 9 o'clock a fine supper waa tendered the team by Mayor Cowan on behalf of the city. Abont forty set down to it, among the number being a hungry Dkmocrat man. The spread waa a tine one and waa greatly appreciate!. When the iuner man hail been satisfied Chit f En gineer Webber addressed the company, and was followed by Mayor Cowan, C W Watts, lohn Hoffman, W E, Oiliest, Conncilman Wntsmau, the Dk mux-rat man and Mr Oeo Chautplain. The latter, who waa a real dent of this city and a member of No '2 s ten or twelve years ago, read an original poem, full of personal hit. An adjournment to the streets followed, when sky rocket and Roman candle illuminated the sky for sever al minutes, aa an outward crow over the vio tori won. When the tournament closed at Seattle there waa a general feeling that Albany had the beat team there, though Spo kane Fall took the most honors. At Scio- As announced last week the celebration at Scio was a great success, a lively time being had. Beside the spread eagle part there were several contest that elicited great interest The egg race was won by Riley BUyeu. Prize, $i. Manny Miller captured the priae of $t in the wheel barrow race. A 150 vard foot race for firemen was won by John Carv, Wm Bren ner second and Frank fiords third. Priaes, T - - ft a9- 1-1 at f).?'nn ine sou yard race wo won by Riley Bilycu, Wm Brenner second, Alley Ewing third. A very peculiar, but exciting firemen's race was run. It was be- tween the II & L Co who ran U7 vard and got a man to the top of a ladder, 'and a nose team, to run 100 yard, unrel 200 feet of hose and get water. The former won, of course, in 29I4' second. As iNciriENT Hlazk. At about 10:30 o'clock Saturday evening a ring of the tire bell brought ou: the tireiuen of the cit, and engine and trucks were hurried into the street, when ths announcement waa made tht tUe tire was out. It transpired that 1 bias bad bjeu discovered io th- loftof John as a ... . - ny oernueer livery stable, which waa pnt out with an old pair of paot. It waa thought it was started from a sky rocket tired by the tiremea about half an boor previous; bat the location 01 ore makes thu impossible, and more was u rocnei arounc. it was more likely of an incendiary origin, or by careless nes ou the part of some one in the loft. Another Business Horss. Mr. A Becker, recently of Portland, has just fin ished a neat cottage on his acre tract in Hackleman' third addition to Albany, which he has furnished in a nice manner, preparatory tojd residence here with his young wite, to whom he was recently mar .1 . 1 I n . m m icu in roniana. in a tew week vc un derstand Mr. Becker wi.l open a piano and organ store in this city. $2.50 Pieces. Have you observed the tact that these little pieces of gold have i 01 circulation. iney are now nearly as scarce as honesty in the Portland nremen. We understand a good premium is oeing ottered lor them. Another valu able coin is the V cent piece with the cent it. leit oft. Tiik Prettiest. The Salem Statesman says that when the new depot is finished Salem will posses the prettiest depot in Uregon, without a single exception. After putting up with a mere barn for years and cars 11 certainly deserves a good depot ror me sane 01 uregon we rejoice to see the capital city possess a "pretty" depot. A Flaiw Document. The Board of Trade'. pamphlet is just out of the press J. II. Burkhart did the work, a first-class job. The descriptive articles arc good, speaking in plain language of our advan tages, without much extra coloring. There is nothing in it intended to entrap the im migrant. Two thousand copies will be sent to San Francisco for distribution by t he school teachers. Children's Dat. The annual Child ren's Day will be observed at the Evangel, ical Church next Sabbath, July 15th. A childrens meeting will be held in the even h"g( a good program ha been arranged and a cordial invitation is extended to all. New Milliner. The millinery busi ness of Mr E J O'Conner has been sold to Miss Ida Brush, of this city.who will here after conduct it. Mis Brush is an enter prising young lady who will make a good successor to even such a live business wo man a Mra O'Conner. Surveying. Mr. E. T. T.

A basket meeting will be held at Happy Home school on the ist Sunday in August. D C McFarland. Residence Sold. Tues day Mr. Jo Tyler sold his residence, situated on the Canal, in the First Ward, to Mr. T.J. Pat terson, recently from Arkansas, for $1350. Joe owned this property for over ten years. Mr. Patterson is moving into the house,and will make Albany his home. A Partnership. Drs. Woodward and McAllister, of this city, both homeopathic physicians,have entered into a partnership for the practice of medicine. Their office is in the Cusick Block, upstairs. Married. At the residence of Al Thom; .;, Samuel I, Miller and Miss Carrie Sarrs. You can generally tell whether a man understands his business, whatever It Is, by the way he handles himself. One or two motions give the whole thing away. The brick mason who kumtuxes his trndc doesn't act as If he were baking biead, the carpenter doesn't handle a saw as If he were aewtng with a needle, and the doctor doesn't cut off a leg as if he were walking on eggs, The men putting down Young's stone walk attract attention because they act as If thev knew what thev were doing. It takes a sharp man these times to "puil the wool" over the eyes of the fifty or six ty men who superintend public improve mcnts In this city, because they have learned the business hv years of patient observation from lumber plies and dry goods boxes, while their money hus in creased by drawing its ten per cent. Inter- et. I his is an age of improvement, when things must be done right. More Nerve.--An Astoria editor thinks he has found something that takes more nerve than tight rope walking. In speak ingot the Davidson Brothers he says Prof. Davidson called at this office and I very pleasant unassuming gentleman, hi calling may be a trille dangerous, but If he wlshea to find out how nervy lie Is, he should take a trip duvn to the eape In a fishing boat on a day like yesterday, then he will understand that the fishermen bo through dangers every day that would cause a tight rope walker's hair to stand upon end Tike quills upon the fretful por cupine, and the only tight walking thev do Is a few hours after getting a fish check caahed." The FiHsT.Thc rattle of the binder 1 already heard in the land, and about aa freepjently as that of the mower, though the latter, by all rulca of at least natural procecdure. has the precedence. The first gentlemen reported to the Democrat of fice as having started binders were Moses Miller and J W propst, who began on Fri day to bind the golden stalks Into bundles. Never before has wheat looked better. The meshes are alt full of plump, healthy xerneis 01 wneat, and there are lots of them. Things look remarkably ausniciuus for the Linn county farmer this fall, ex cept perhaps high price. Remarkable Vitality. -The boy Minnice who shot himself in Uie head on uly 3, is still alive. Mr. L. K. Brooks, of Sweet Home, inform us that the ba'.l plowed through the skull, and that at least two teaspoonftils of braius oozed out, and yet the boy haa been rational most of the time since. He says his dog ran against him and knocked him off the log and that his head struck the log, which caused the injury. He cannot comprehend that he was shot, r ever has set in aud the nhvl- ciansays there Is no hope for the boy. Luck. Aa an illustration of what is sometimes called "luck" is Instanced the fortunes of Purser Downing of the "Idaho.' He and twoothers left their native Massa chusetts hills at the same time, and struck the Columbia river at the same time. They all got steamer employ. He happened to ne put on the "Idaho" on the A'aska route- bout two years ago he, with four others" put $135 ir. a venture in the shape of what wr believed to be a gold mine. Lat week the five partners said their mine for $i,ooo,ooo, gold coin, purser Downing' share is $500,000. The other two are still rustling here for so much or so little a month. That mav not be luck, but it looks very much like what some folks would deem luck to be. A steria. We Wilt.-We admit the "corn," Mr. Timr, about that foot racing business, and without any specks can sec that we put our foot in it. You are just about as virt uous in Corvalli as we are In Albany in uch matters. We are ? lad It wasn't the Corvalli boys that passed the fast runner off for ome one else, and if the Haltcy man went to Corvalli for the sake of aweeping things, as he had already done with on; of Corvalli' sprinters it served him about right; still of course that wav of doing things is naughty after all. Naugh ty is a very tame ort of a word, you know. We've concluded to be on good term with Corvalli, and. Bob, suppose you join with Pipes and the rest of us. Military Census.- Lat year a census of all able bodied male citizens between 18 and 45 years of age not otherwise ex empted by law" was taken by law, and hera is the result of it: Jackson, 120$ ; Wal low, 602 ; Wasco, 1126 j Yamhill, 1543 ; Douglas, 1484 ; Linn, 2029 ; Grant, 1273 ; Malheur, 180 ; Union, 1222 4896 ; Clatsop, 871 ; Baker, bia, 520; Tillamook, 307 ; Curry, 25c : Morrow, 739 Josephine, 465 ; Gilliam. 586 . Washing ton, 1423 ; Lake, 626 ; Klamath, 341 5 Lane, 1730 ; Benton, 885 : Marion, 1852 ; Uma tilla, 1503 ; Polk, 1160 ; Clackamas, (est.) 120. Total, 33,255. A the total vote at the late election was 60,207 it would look very much as if a great many men were missed. A Wheeling Center -Albany is fast becoming the wheeling center of. Oregon and it is a fact worthy of note that the Co- Thrkk in an Hour. About 8 o'clock Wednesday a fire wm seen issuing from the bam on the alley In the rear of the Revere House, be longing to Mr Charlca Pfeiffer. The jungle of the fire bell brought the firemen out In almost Seattle time, and three streams were oon too much for Mr, Fire. Although surrounded by wooden buildings and the barn was a mas of flames atone time, nothing else was scorched. In the night time it would have been a favor able place for a big fire, and the Democrat ollke trembles at the thought. Wo do not know haw it was started. A trainpdhough is said to have been seen coming from the building juat previous to the tire ; but. then tramps always play a part in fires, quite frequently deservedly so. No insur ance. Damage about i A few mo menta after the fire apparatus had been re turned to the engine houses another alarm wa given. A fire had caught In the roof of Woods marble shop, a half block away. A few buckets of water extinguished ft. Again, while the firemen were awaiting roll call alarm No. 3 wa sounded. This time the fire wa In Parker Bro. baker hip, just across the alley from the barn burned. A stream wa put on It by No. -'s. quickly extinguishing the fiame. How He Will Do It. The Ashland papers speaks a follow about the busi ness of a former Albany gentleman : "Mr L Martin has rented the Pioneer store room aa headquarter for hla fruit packing and hipping bualneaa. He haa contracted to buy the peache from a number of our or chard-men and will ship largely to F. II Page, of Portland. Mr. Martin is begin ning the busine in the right way. He has procured a large quantity of handsome labels for hi boxes, telling the purchaser where the fruit waa grown, by whom, and for whom It was packed. Each box he sends out will be thus labeled. Besides this, he will give close attention to packing, and will ship only first-class fruit.and every peach will be carefully wrapped In paper made especially for that purpose. If all the peaches shipped from this Valley this sea son be as carefully selected and packed as those bundled bv Mr. Martin, we mav be sure the reputation of Southern Oregon as a peach country will be greatly enhanced." Jealous. Summer resort trouble ha al ready begun at II waco. a M evidenced by the foPoving lively Item. While George Day was walking along the beach opposite llwaco, with several ladies, a If r. Dunlap put In an appearance and opened fire with a revolver upon Day. He fired five shot, but was a poor marktman, and only two of the bullet touched Day, and these only grazed the skin, Mr. Dunlap rushed for ward, wrested the pistol from her husband s hand ami threw it away. Dunlap accused Day of improper intimacy with hi wife. A warrant U out for Dunlap' arrest. A Match Shoot. A match hoot be tween companies A of Whlteaker, and I of Macleay, was won by the latter by twenty odd point. The highest score wa 23 out of 2 C. made bv one on each side. Several made 22. We suggest that a match be tween the Albany team and some of our neighbors, Eugene, Corvalli, or Salem, for instance, is in order. Let us have a shoot at once right here at Albany.
