LOCAL RECORD. 1 otatwks, - -1 he Marlon i nmity paper are having a fierce quarrel over the ques tion of tho condition of the potato crop Here I the last from the Atfettl : "The Capital Journal displays its ignorance on the matter pertaining to the farm wljcn it says that the potato rot ax spoken of in the Appeal is all "bosh." We have examined this crop to our own entire satisfaction and tind tho report correct. The Burkanka ocdllng variety seems to be worse affected than anVrtther kind ; the tubers when cut open display a black speck in the center with yellowish streaks running through the potato, denoting that they are affected with some disease." Iukntifiku. - The statement is now made that the remains found at North Powder, i(fBakcr county, have been posi tively identified as those of Willis Skiff. A dentist and another person who had occas ion to examine Mr. Skiff's teeth a short time before his disappearance, made the identification. It is probable that certain persons will be arrested, as the absence of the body is all that prevented the convic tion of the persons tried for the crime OrR Resorth. A large number o campers arc already scattered around Soda ville and some at Waterloo. The number attending these places on Sunday particular vta very large. The soda water, a splen did beverage when taken directly from the springs and good even when bottled, added to the cool mountain breexeo, makes both of these places very desirable for summer resorts, and many prefer them to the sea side. Should the railroad be continued to Sodaville it would become one of the most frequented resorts in the state. Tiik Eclipse.- -The eclipse of the moon came off last Sunday as advertised, which proves that it pays to advertise, for a large number took extra pains to sec the free ex hibition. Doors were opened at 644, but the show proper did not begin until about an hour later. At to o'clock the earth was fairly between the sun and moon and the lig'.ts were all out, making it as fine an opportunity for sparking as passing through a tunnel. An eclipse of the moon i an interesting sight because not very common, ft is not quite as awful as art cc ipse of the sun ; but it does pretty well for a heated summer evening. Friendless. A gentleman from Sclo Informs us that young. Eads, who was drowned near that place Sunday, was prob ably not in bathing. He was found with his clothes on, and it was thought he fell Into the creek. His body was buried yes terday afternoon. The boy had only been around Scio a short time, d was a perfect stranger.having no relatives or even frieuds there. As the drowning was only witness ed by two little children too young to ex- !ain matters the manner of Its happening s somewhat of a mystery. Farewell Sermon. Rev. Rominger on last Sabbath evening preached hi fare well sermon In this city. After a vacation of several week he will begin his duties as pastor of the Congregational Church at East Portland. Rev. Rominger is one of the most logical preacHee in the State and will do honor to any pulpit he may fill. No arrangements have as yet been'made for his successor. A Bk; Price. Mr. Frank Conover, of the Gazette, of Corvallis, was in the city on his way home from Southern Oregon. He informed us that on Saturday at Ashland a ten acre peach orchard was sold to a gen ticman who had just gone from this coun ty, for $ 10,000, a regular Los Angeles price. Prices there generally are verv in flated. Rlptcre Ci red. No charges for ex amination or consultation, and a cure guar anteed in every case undertaken or money refunded. Of the many cases treated by Dr. Porterfield during the past year in Red Bluff and Redding, not one but will recom mend this treatment highly. Don't neg lect his opportunity. The sooner a rup ture is treated the easier it is cured. Dr. Porterfield will be at Russ House.rooms 26 and 27, Albany, July 26th to 31st. Wheat Remaining About 18,000 bush els of wheat remain in the Albany Farm ers' warehouse unsold, and in the face of the fact that most of the slorers will have to pay double storage, the time being up a few days ago. That seems sort of a poor'policy to us. Those who have a regu lar time for selling, except, uncommon cir cumstances surround them, are the ones who make in the long run. Business Change. Saturday evening Mr. Milt Miller sold his drug business in this city to Dr. L. W. Guise, lecently of Kansas. Mr. Guise left Sunday for his former home after his family, leaving his son here in charge of the business. Dr. Guise also purchased the house and lot of Mr. H. Flindt adjoining that gentleman's family residence. Exercise. Albany young ladies and small boys go in bathing in the Ditch. For exercise it is simply immense. The swift current makes it a bumpity-bump business that brings into play aU the muscles of the system, particularly those controlling the tongue. The person who sccessfully makes the transit from Monteith's pasture to Broadalbin si.reet ought to be able to wash clothes or fight Sullivan. Would Like Him. Prof. Coomcr, who has so ably led the H. A. C. band, of Salem, for several years, contemplates leaving that city, l'rof. Coomer is by odds the be?t cornetist as well as leader in Oregon, and we suggest if Salem docs not keep him that an effort-be made to brine him to Albany, where there is material for a first-class band. Ice Cream. Festival. A supper and f 0 ' A a tV . a . ice cream tcttivai accompanied with a musical concert, by the Tangent Brass Band, will be given at Tangent on Satur day night, t, luly 28t friends of 8th, under the auspices of the lady the band. Admission, including concerh,supper and ice cream 25, rents The Small Bov. The Albany boy now glories in a curious little contrivance, the idea for which he secured from an Eastern paper. It it made of a plain pine stick, which is notched, nnd a round piece of card board pinned on the end. By rubbing the notched stick the card board is made to buzz at a very rapid rate. AR. R. Rcmor -There Is a rurnor in circulation, just how well founded wc do not know, that the overland trains will ar rive at Albany two hours later, and the Eugene train will run to Roseburg arriv ing here earlier in the morning and later in the afternoon.

The meeting called to be held at Sclo Friday evening by the citizens of Sclo o consider the proposition of the Oregonlan R. K. Co. to build branch road was postponed until the pro no.ed route shall hive been surveyed. A meeting to be called tt any time by chair man of the enterprise. Mr E J O'Conner, the County Surveyor, left on Monday for Sclo to make a preliminary survey of the route. The proportion of the Co.npany It that the citlxens of Sclo shall survev the .rriuti' the road und lav the ties. The Company offers to lay and furnish the rails and then to abandon tho West scio station, and make Scio the telegraph station and noKtotticc. ulvlng that citv all the trains that run on the road, a privilege that will be a great one for sclo. A Chinaman Mad. Tuesday after noon Hong Mad, for short, a Lebanon Chinaman, was in the city after a warrant forthe arrest of Chorley Miller, but failed to gtt it, because he was not entitled to one Sabbath afternoon the Celestial was going alone the street when young Donaea snriukled some water on him. The China man got mad ami going oacic uonaca jok ing v told him Miller did It. The Celestial s a l t w. started for him then, and in the course of the affair was hit with a stick, but his arm was not broken, and he was very little In jured. Bt; Exhtkmknt. -Oneday last week a farmer and his wife went Into Jefferson to lo some trading. Shortly after their ar- rival they attracted the attention of the whole town by a very earnest and excited dispute in which loud talking was freely indulged In. A large crowd collected to ascertain the cause of the animated dispute whin it .i lr.11 in il that the cause was us to whether A. B. Huddlcson sells hardware, stove, tinware, oils, paints, etc , cheaper than In Salem. They settled the matter by going into II uddleson's where they found a fine supply ot tne aoovc line of goods cheaper than Salem's prices. A HoKRiHi.t: v'uime, A gentleman just from Roseburg Informs us that last Saturday a well known farmer in good circumstances, resitting fifteen or twenty miles from Roscburg.named Tipton.was ar rested and taken to that city on complaint of his wife. The charge was the horrible one of having committed rape on their ten year old daughter. He protected his Inno cence, but waived examination and was held under $3000 bonds to await the action lion of the grand jury. Examining physi cians declared that the crime charged had been committed bv some one. The case 'caused considerable feeling in the neigh borhood where committed. The Proper Way Saturday night about two o'clock the next morning Mr.T L. Wallace discovered a man prowling around his house. With revolver in hand, Mr. Wallace opened the door and asked the visitor what he wanted, instead of ans wering he started on a run. He waa order ed to halt, but failing to do so Mr. Wallace fired more to frighten him than to hit him with the former result, for the fellow ran and bounded over the fence like a deer, disappearing around a house. Cold lead is the proper thing for these midnight maraud er who refuse to account for their conduct, and it is to be honed some of them will get hit. " A Falsehood. A writer in the -trattti Pacific States says California is the only state on the coast that can raise prunes. Thi is a bare-faced falsehood. No country in the world is better adapted to prune culture than the Willamette valley. Our prunes compare with thoe raised any where. All through the valley prune or- citards arc growirg Into prominence. Prunes arc our pet., we dote on our facili ties for raising them, and then to have a prominent journal like the one mentioned belittle us in this respect, if o.ily In a nega tive way, irritates us considerably and more too. Some day this will be the big gest prune country' in the world, or we guess incorrectly. Two Woven. -Elisabeth R. Wheaton and Mary J. Moorman,the prison Evangel ist, preached and ang Wednesday to a large gathering of people on the corner of Broadalbin and First Street.

This Is rather old, but It Is a Linn county Item and hat gotten here after a trip to Salem : "A fine horse was stolen Sunday night, July 15, fr m Alexander Montgomery, about three and a half miles from Stavton, across the Santiam in Linn county. Mr. Mont, gomcry was off in the mountains at the time, the family being at home, and the thief evidently thought It a good time to work. The animal was a splendid three- year-eld filly, and being a little liable to jump fences, was not allowed to run on the range, but was kept In the pasture and placed in the stable at night. On the night in question, the usual precautions were taken and the stable door tied. In the morning the mare and her halter was gone and nothing lias been heard of her or the thief since. About the same time another thieving operation was worked at Sam King's, about a mile and a half from Montgomery s. king smoke house was broken into and all his hams, to the num ber of about ten, were stolen. The bacon was not toubled." Another W. T. Fire. Monday Ros yn, W. T was visited by a large fire, worse than those of Paloute City and Ellcnsburg, and, without a fire department, was com pletely burned to the ground, eighty-four buildings were burned and nroDcrtv di- troyed to the value of over $200,000. Noth ing is left In the city but the Coal Com pany's office, the depot and a fc houses in the outskirts. Comparatively small amount of Insurance was carried. The Al bany Farmers' and Merchants' Insurance company had $1750 placed in the city and oses the whole amount It wa divided into two policies of $1000 and $750 and was placed on general merchandise.

Perhaps a Rich Strike. A short time since, the stockholders of the Capital mining company, of this city, sent pro. spectors up to their mine in the Santiam district above Mehama, to do a little work, and it seems they have struck il rich. In doing some blasting a short distance from the old tunnel, they opened up a vein of quarts which l reported to be very rich, and which it is supposed is the main lead. vsnc 01 tucsc men maricu ipr aienama 10 .ith P-w..U I r.
