Look Out. Elsewhere we publish extracts from an article In the Ban Fran cisco Examiner on the National B & L A's of that sute showing them to be run en tirely in the interest of the managers, a trap for Investors. As this is on the ai'thorlty ot the bank commissioners it may be relied on Albany men who have put their money into any of these aiwrcia tlons should inTestigate them at once. Local Building & Ioan Associations are a fine thing because the members get the benefit of the profits, but in case of the nationals the money seems to sll go to the managers. The best wsy always is to support home Institutions . You c"n gen erally depend on being taken in with out side institutions of this character. Another DisAFPSAnAifca.

Since then noth ing h been seen or heard of him. He left everything he owned behtnddncluding hi blankets and trunk, which are at the feed yard. No cause can be assigned for his disappearance. He was a young msn of good habit, bore a 1 eputatlon for so briety and honehty,and wa a hard worker. tie had no debts except one secured br bis team, and financial difficulty could not nave been the cause of hi leaving.

The following from the Spectator, of New York, will be of interest to Albany people: Two con cern which, to say the least, should be carefully investigated before they are patronised, are the West Virginia Fire ami Marine Insurance Co. ot Wheeling, West Va., (capital stock, IOO0.) and the World's Cooperative Fire Insurance Co. of Kings and New York countiea.

Mr and Mrs Hearst tak to their Homes In Portland the beat wishes ot a host of friend. The program consisted of a poembyLrE Storra Barrows, which expresses the situation so well we give it in fall: There lived a good woman, Who got very tired Of keeping of boarders With one girl that the hired. With cooking and stewing and Washing op dishes. Getting ham and chipped beef, And semetises a few fishes. Baked potatoes, beans and niilktoaat, W hich al.e said Was her favorite because It need Up the old bread. And fruits ot the finest. More than 400 qosrta. She used in one season ot all Kinds and all aorta. But grandest of all, she was Proud of her cake, The boarderi would taste St, And jump up and cry "shake." It would melt la their mouth, ' And bring tears to their eyes, If the piece that they got . Was not one of good size. Down the throats of these boarders All this disappeared. With milk, coffee and tea until Some of oi feared The good woman would rise, ' And swear by the skies. She would keep no more boarders, And make no more pies. T'was a good class of boarders She bad from thr first. They stood by her all round. And said, dear Mrs Hearst Don't leave ns as orphans To go out in the cold. But stay with oe, and call ns The lambs of your fold. Her tears fell apace, While they hung on her neck, And abe thought of tier bank book, And many a check The dear boys had paid her. To settle their score Before she allowed them To go out of her door. She was all in a tremble, Bnt she spoke np and said, I feel so broke np I most wish I waa dead. Tbey lurried tbeir heads In her Lap as tbey cried, We feel just as you do, And moat wisn we had died When we were young and Knew little of trouble, - Now we are old And some ot ns doable. With a lump in her throat, And her bands on our head, She at las'i found her voice And kindly aha said, Don't cry for me now, Don't cry for me never, I'm going to Port land To do nothing for ever. Then all of us spake With loud ringing voice, Mrs Hearst we release you, And the man of your choice. We give yon our greeting, And say our farewell, May blessings go with yon That tongue cannot tell. Wherever you go You shall have our best wishes, Whether doing kind acts, Or washing up di. lies. And at lost where loud anthems thall always be ringing, May we meet you again, And join in the singing. WCOHEVDaY. Mr A B Mcllwaln went to Portland thi noon on business.

Dr. Price's Cream Baking1 Powder possesses a peculiar merit not approached by that of any other baking powder. . It produces the hot buckwheat, Indian or wheat cakes, hot biscuit, doughnuts, waffles or muffins. Any of these tasteful things may be eaten when hot with impunity by persons of the most delicate digestive organs. Dr. Price's Cream Bak ixtg Powder leavens without firmentation or decomposition. In its preparation none but the purest of cream of tartar, so 'da, etc. is used, and in such exact equivalents as to always , guarantee a perfectly neutral result, thereby giving the natu ral and sweet flavor peculiar to buckwheat and other flour that may be used, the natural flavor so much desired and ap predated by all. The oldest patrons of Dr. Prices powder tell the story, thatlhey can never get the same results from any other leavening agent, that their griddle cakes, biscuits, etc. are never ca light aad never taste so sweet or so good as when raised with Dr. Prices Cream Baking Powder. x-N 0 n f a, 3 tiRTtf KtM WITH HIM. Recently we published a letter written by a man In Albany to a Kansas paper, full of lies. Sow a former Kansas man, of tierval, get even with the man and Kanea by telling some troths about that state in a letter to the Salem Statesman. lis say; Ia readins the Statesman today I see there has been a fool writing about Ore gon and the glorious Willamette valley, the only paradise I have found under the canopy of heaven. He sign bis name "Sucker." It is a good name, for all the substance he eyer got there In Kansas was lu sucking grasshoppers. 1 am a Kansas man myself lived and died therefor five long years. I had at one time twelve dozen chickens, for It is a good p'ace to raise them, as they live on hoppers. I wo also fortunate enotigh to raise some little straw on twenty acres of land. I threshed 'he straw- hot the wheal for the re waa none there. and put it lit a abed and roped it down and tied large rocks to the ropes to bold it, so tne wind would not lake It. Uut It was of no aval . Iaotuoone morning and the straw was alt gone. Also one day my chicken were all miss ing. Tin was hi Russell ionnty. In about two week 1 saw an article printed in a Lincoln, Nebraska, paper, stating there had bten a shower of white Ieg. born chickens, some vet alive, and billed from Kansas. I had one cow, and she wa found one mile away on a telegraph wire dangling in the air. All the farmer boild heavy cellar walls snd put rods down with iron plates on the bottom of the wall lo stay them. This I know, a I did it myself. No man larms the same land there two year In ucceeion, for real estate travel at the rate of ninety mile an hour. I would not aiv Marion county, if I owned it.for the whole state of Kansas, or even one township of Marion county. Thi man most have lived in Kansas in buffalo times, and skinned these now extinct animals for a living. A far aa the people of Oregon are concerned, the beads of families came here In an early day from the East. Tbey were brave men. not cowards like bim. to wait until railroad were built, ao he could occupy the brake beam out of sight of the Indians. Kakras Scrrtaxa. br arras v ill. February 29th, 1802.
