FIIIDAY.......DKCEMBEIV31, 1888. 8TIT3 & BJItsrs as HUTTING, rraprlctars. feed r. Ntrrritu. laesi Editer. Considerable Bittkr. Mr, John Mor gan writing from Pltlnvlew says t "A great many people are complaining of get ting their cupfull of bitter and no iwect. I think mine is one of that kind. Just in the nice dajri of harvest I broke two of my rlb, and, then to fill the bitter cup to overflow Ing, 1 broke a leg in November, and while at Mr, Leedy's mill getting saw dust, my fine mare, Alice, sickened and died, and now to overflow it all I have the bilious fever and Dr. Star has been giving noisy medicine and if Albany wants a woolen factory just come and move my house down and I think they will have a good one." The old saying that it never rains but it pours is proving true with Mr. Morgan.but the brightest weather often comes after the darkest clouds. A Delighted Audience. The rendi tion of the drama "The Confederate Spy," at the open house Saturday evening, was received by a large audience, fully four hundred being present. Nearly all of the parts were well sustained, that of Sockcry Schneldelbecker, the drafted Dutchman by Thos, Overman, particularly being filled from top to bottom. The Dutchman often brought the house down. There are many exciting scenes In the play, which were given in a pleasing manner. Sever al of the parts deserved special mention on account of the excellent manner in which they were sustained; but as only praise is appreciated in the write up of an amateur performance, we find the best plan to be to speak in general terms. The enthusi asm with which the play was received speaks for the merit of its rendition. It is to be hoped we may have more during the coming winter. Moody Will Come. Mr. Jacks, travel ling secretary of the Y. M. U. An passed through the city Wednesday and Informed Prof. Lee, who met him at the train, tha arrangements had been completed by which Rev. Moody would absolutly be in Al bany on the ad and 3d of January and hold services fcr the benefit of the college stud ents of the state. Under this arrange ment entertainment will have to be furn ished for probably one hundred students. We are glad to report this program, and consider Albany fortunate in obtaining Rev. Moody if for only two days. u Concert. Next Tuesday eveoMg a concert will be given at thejopfra House for the benefit of the Jreibyterian Church, and it promises to be a very fine thing, the best talent in the city being engaged for it. Mrs Langdon, Mrs Chamberlain, Prof. Lee, O II Irvine, Miss Lib Irvlne.Mrs Alt. house, Mrs W 11 Lee, and Messrs. Wm. Fortmiller and Rev Pritchard are the prin cipal participants. The program is being ar ranged and will be published in a day or two. Board or Trade. Even the fear of a $5 assessment did not obtain a meeting for members reporting as present Evident ly the members think there is nothing to be done in Albany, and that we had better do like Micawber, wait for something to turn up. That isn't the way Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane Falls have been doing. Taste for Art. A good, live interest in the study of art, will benefit a city, and we hope to have one cultivated in Albany. Money spent in this direction is not thrown away. Young people had much better spend their time in painting or drawing than in frittering it away in nothing. In this connection we understand that Mr. William Wright, with Dr. Guiss & Son, wiil soon organize a class in painting. Moody. Mr. Moody will not come to Albany at all, even for the college services, nor will he go to Salem. So he informed Rev. Irvine in Portland. This is to be re gretted very much. Necessarily he has to So where most needed, and hence we un trstand wilt be In Astoria. If he only touches the consciences of some of the editors there h? will do a noble work. A Boy Brakeman. Another one has been injured Last Sunday Young Hap perset,sonot Road Master Ilapperset, of Roseburg, met with a painful accident at Oakland. lie is a brakeman on the train and in some manner got caught and had one of his legs badly mashed, so badly that it was decided that it would have to come off. Their Share. On Saturday Mrs. A. W. Wright received a dispatch announcing the death of tier son Edgar, at Yaquina. This family have been sorely afflicted in the lots of two boys within the past year. This little fellow was a witness in the trial of Henry Miller at the last term of court, for the killing of his brother Elmer. Benton Leader. Another Complaint. Uuite a num ber of our best citizens are complaining that cigarette dealers sell cigarettes to small boys ranging from 9 to 13 years of age, and thus lay the foundation for a dis gusting, life destroying habit There seems to be no law prohibiting the sale of cigarettes to minors unless parents inter fere and prevent it, but this loose way of selling to small boys will lead to the en actment of stringent laws upon the subject if dealers do not desist. The Difference. On this mild win ter day with men around in their shirt sleeves it is a grand sight to see the Three Sisters rise In the southeast clothed in eternal snows. It shows us the difference hetween the WiUamette valley and the east, the mountains being emblematic of the oresent weather alone; the Atlantic coast. Tub Mill City "Yesterday afternoon the incorporators of Mill City presented to h rn.intr clerk for filing a plat of their embryo city on the Oregon Pacific. Af- ter so.ne deliberation the plat was with drawn, as it was decided to have the city itmbodv a greater scape of land. It will be returned in a few days for record. This little city Is booming, and has a bright f uture."Salem journal. Absent Minded.

His name was Matt W. Harrison m.1 ei vears. He had been ill for some time which caused his death. Returned. Mr. J.

Manager Hoag c,vT to CorvalSis on the mornin Want the World. Salem now wants the Agricultural College, and a paper there says it can have it legally. If there is law providing that State buildings shall all be erected In Salem it is an unjust one Everywhere else in the United States the buildings are scattered, as they should be all over the State,the Capital at ono place penitentiary at another, asylum at another etc., but our near sighted and narrow mind ed legislators have centered everything at the Capital. In reference to the Agrlcul tural College now at Corvallis, read the following from the Journal : "As the mat ter now stands no additional improvements or appropriations will be made by the State for the support or maintenance, of their Institution. From all parts of the State petitions are pouring in praying that no more money be expended upon this College and (arm, the title to which Is clouded Kinging resolutions embodying the same prayer are being passed by the several farm er" organizations ana granges mrough out 4he State. By the laws of the State of Oregon the Statebuildlngsand institutions shall all be located at the capital. As Ore gon must haye an Agricultural College within her borders an effort is being made to secure the removal of this experiment station to Salem, where It rightfully be longs.

Prineville Review. "lausson-Irvine Wedding. On Wednesday evening, Dec. 19, at the resi dence of Hon. R. A. Irvine, Mr. Allen B Slausson, associate editor of the Oregonian, and Miss Mary A.

After a very impressive cere mony a bountiful repast was spread and the evening was spent in extending hearty congratulations and good will to the happy couple, who have left for Portland, across the river from which, in East Portland, will be their future heme. A Little Sarcastic The following Is the Astoria s account of the wreck of the "Yaquina Bay." While not quite as vicious as that of one of its contemporaries it is inclined to be sarcastic: "The steam er 'Yaquina Bay' stranded while crossing into Yaquina on Tuesday, in tow of a tug. A tug is kept at that port to take frequent soundings, locate the constantly shifting channel, and toiv the steamers thre-ugh the narrow channel. It is said that through bad steering, the steamer in tow of the tug grounded, breaking the hawser." Dawning. An Ex. says: "It is begin- Ing to dawn on the residents of the Will amette valley that it is destined at no dis tant day to be one of the most progressive, thickly populated and prosperous section of the Pacific Northwest Within a very few years, and the infectious enthusiasm, incident to a boom, already dlls the very air. The next few months will witness uch a development In fruit and agricult- ral Interests In the valley as was not dreamed of a fe h years ago." Never Kick. Near Edgbaston, Eng and, is a pasture where a horse and goat grazed. Some rude boys amuzed them selves by throwing stones at the goat and beating it, and were having a fine time when the horse cantered up, kicked, struck and bit at the boys, and grabbing one young ruman by tne coat coiiar yanaea him clean over the neage. reopie wno buy their groceries of Conn Bros, never kick, and they nave a very nne selection 01 holiday goods, which should be seen. Best in the World. Here is a little Item from the St Paul Press which should be encouraging to prune raisers in Linn county: "One fact noticeable in the pret- operatlons of orchardists is the tendency to make prunes their chief crop, it is be lieved that Oregon prunes are the best the world produces. They are altogether be yond comparison with the European pro duct, and even uamornia aoes not ciaim to be able to grow as good prunes as Oregon. They bring much the highest price in the market" Smoked Glass.- -Albany wi'l celebrate New Years on a big scale this year.

The goods for Albany merchants taken from the wrecked steamer were brought to Albany Tuesdayand some of them delivered to the consignees, when a despatch was received ordering the de livery of the goods stopped until further orders. Some of them were In rather of a bad condition, having been spattered with water, and boxes generally were considera bly mussed. Free Tobacco Seed. U. S.

Larson and the company have been unable to come to terms for a right of way through the farmer's lane, and as the road was built on the land anyway, he has at different times torn up the tracks and stopped the trains, and this last time stopped the mall, for which offence he will be taken to Portland for trait to-night by deputy U.

The Pfcay Hue's special from Grcmada says: Passeri gar train No. 2 on the Illinois Central was robbed last night one mile north of Duck illllat 10:1.. When the train stopped at that point two men boarded the engine and commanded the engineer to pull out fast, at the same time coveting him with revol vers. One mile north they compelled him to stop. The engineer and fireman were marched to the express car. One of the rob bers knocked on the door, which was open ed by the messenger. The robbers entered and took $3000, all there was in the car, irom Messenger Hill. The place of the robbery was an open low marsh, about fifty yards from the woods. Both robbers ran eastward Into the swamp. A posse Is being organized to join in the chase, and blood hounds have been secured to aid In trailing them. Was II Kilted. San Diego, Dec. 15.
