Harry Porter, of Nor ton's Siding, on the line of the O P re cently set a trap for a bear, and returned from a visit to it a few mornings later yelling lustily and calling the dogs. A partv of ten, among them the neighbor hood school mistress. Miss AdJie Bris tow, of this city, returned with him, and an hoar was spent in training the dogs for future bear banting. When the animal, wore oat by pain and exertion, was set at liberty, he laid down, apparently more dead than alive, and Miss Bristow, with a Ions stick, advanced from among her friends and attemtped to arouse him. She struct him severe', blows, when he suddenly jumped upand made a dash for her. She fled, and the chase, which can tinned for several yards, was only inter -rotted in time by the dogs, on whom the bear turned, when within a couple of feet of M iss Bristow. The inciden t taught the party a lesson and the animal was speedily dispa'ched. Corvallia Times. How I.- Was Obtacskd Last Fridav. Jane 9, a license was issued by the county clerk for the marriage of r rederick Close and Maud Heeley, of Harrtsbarg. Tbe name ot the witness as signed was Oeo. Dayis. At the time the clerk was re quested to ask the papers not to publish tbe tact of the license lor a couple of wests T e couple were united in mar riage bv Justice Ueorge Howell the next day- It now transpires that the marri age was as.ainet the wishes of the parents of the bride, who is under 18 years of age, and that tbe affidavit that she was over 18 was "worn to bv Edward Close, a brother of the groom under a fictitious name. A warrant was issued for bis arrest, but be had fled, and coud not be found. It la proposed to make an ex ample of the case, which it not the first one of this nature to occur in Linn ounty. At Cobvai.lis. Benton county had 1 $10,000 and Lincoln $4,000 in lob's bank. Two Corvailis Chinamen say they are bnste-. as ther had their money in the bank.

No matter how great the fair may b., this plant will exeite considerable curiosity and aston ishment Grant's Pass Courier. LiscHAROKD Dr Parr, C W Thomp son and the Powers boys, who were bound over some time ago on a charge of unlawfully killing elk. had their case investigated by the grand jury and they were discharged, no indictment being found against them. The d'd not deny killing tbe elk, but showed that all the meat was used and not a pound sold, and that the people in the neighbor hood had been out of meat for some time. Kugene Register. Aouavatsd. If some of the grocery delivery boys of Salem get kicked out of the back doors, and clear over tne back fences, ona of tbsse days, they will be more careful about rus ling into Salem back doors without knocking.

During the Oakland fins it was only by very hard work that the fire was kept to tho south side of the street. The fliundealor gU eloquent on the subject a follows: Heroic efforts were made to stop the flames from crossing over.

The intense heat from the burning buildings across the street, (sufficient to destroy the heavy plate gals windows of Young & Co,) ignited the peak of the roof of the Medley building. Hose from the hotel had been stretched.but in the absence of ladders it could not lie taken to the place, Somebody must climb to the top of the roof or the north side was doomed . Somebody did go. Who was it? Robert Tapp! Who sat astride the roof, with standing heat that set wood ablaze, and shattered heanr plate glass. In the mean time Mahouey und Bogart were playing the hose on the upper part of the front of the building and were exposed to the same scorching heat. It was the crisis and these men met it. A Pkcci.iak Bank The Daily Astorian tells the following storv: Silua M Smith tells a good story which shows how people put money for safe keeping in pioneer d.iys. Mr Lampoon, whose son is now a prominent ritisen of Portland, did business on the Clatsop plains. Having occasion to visit Astoria, he put iJ,500 in gold 920 pieces in a barrel of nour. Meantime flour fell short at Solomon Smith's and John Hobson. who lived with him at the time, called at Mr Lam peon's for a barrel. He took one at random and brought it home. In the even ing when he opened it, out rolled the gold pieces. He and Mr Smith were, of course, astonished, and did not know what to make of it. They gathered the coins and put them safely away. Mr Lanipson returned home the same evening and on learning that Mr Hobson had gat a barrel of flour, be looked around and found that the barrel was missing. He set out for Mr Smith's where he was delighted to find his treasure intact. It may be noted that the barre! contained Chilian flour, for this slope, which now produces many million bushels of wheat and exports many thousand laurels of flour, then imported flour from Chile.

It was picked up by an old sea captain on the ice in the polar regions near the place where Dr Franklin's party disappeared years ago. It may be that this was a unadrant used on the Frank lin polar expedition. If so it is of great value. It is at least a relic of old time navigation that is decidedly interesting in itself.

During investigation by the grand jury, the fact was brought to Mayor Gil roy'a attention, that the hospital for fe male lunatics on BiackwellV Island was being conducted under shameful condi tions. It was found that the bnilding known as the Female Lunatic Pavillion contained over two thousand patients, where there is hardly room 'or twelve hundred, and it is in such shocking re pair as neither to protect the inmates against weather overhead, and sheer rot tenness below. When the weather is wet some are crowded together in dry places so as to keep out ot the rain. hen the grand jury's scathing presentment was brought to Major Gilroy's attention be had "not had time to consider the n atter-'' Considering that the city buys Mr Gilroy's time at a liberal annual sal ary that he may consider just such mat ters, this is a remarkably weak excuse for the Mayor to make. It is interest ing however to know that it was through the efforts of Mr Gilror that tbe legisia lure appropriated f2,GOO,000 for tbe building of a speedway for tic. exclusive benefit of a few horse owners and at the expense of the already over taxed prop erty owners- Still Mayor Gilroy claims to be the friend of the poor, hot, who would dream, if such were not duly at tested to be the fact, that a city occupy ing such a position as New York, the first city of the first republic, of the world, - as so badly misgoverned.

If the congress of tbe United States were liable to criminal ind ctment it would have to stand trial on the charge of murder in the Grst degree for b ving killed the 22 employes of tbe surgeon gener d's office who lost their lives by the falling of the floors of Ford's old theatre, where Lincoln was assassinate I, which occurred last Friday, a catastrophe which can never oe forgotten by any who were at tbe time in V, ashing ton, and which still is tbe leading topic of conversation wherever one goes In nd dit'-on to the 22 men killed outright there were 6 injured, a number of whom may die, and many of whom will be permanent iy crippled. Congress cannot claim in ex tenuation that it did not know the condi tion of this building, because its condition bad been rrpea'edly called to its attention, and it actually appropriated money some six or eight years ago to n-ct a new build ing to certain tbe Army M, dical Mu-eum and library which bad U-c-n in tins build ing. Just think for a moment what damaging evidence is gives by this action. Congress erects another building because this isn't safe ii.iugb f r the museum and library with tbtir comparative!! few at tendant to reuiain la. and then allows Un clerks to be crowded into the un afe build ing. Had a private emplojer been guilty of this crime he could have been legally executed for murder: but congress -veil, th families of the dead and crippled, who are now being aided by private ccntribu tlons, can spend tbe remainder of their lives in asking congress to recom; ense them fir their lost bread winners. Meanwhile there are half a dozen buildings in Wash ington containing many times the number of government employes who were in tbe collapsed building that are known to be equally dangerous, among tnem tne gov ernment printing ofSie. with iU near'y 1000 employes; tbe patent office, the annex to tbe postofhee depaitment and the 'in der building, where a large branch of tbe war department is quartered. An attempt is being made by an army c )urt of inquiry to locate tbe personal responsibility for tbe dUter at this old death trap, if there be any. and a coroner's jury is also at work with tbe same eta in vitw. It if said the direct cause of the axidest was a excavation which was be ing msde fcr tbe purrose of potting in new biilers. This may be true, but even if it iv that furnishes no excuse for congress for having allowed a building which was oScially condemned twenty-seven years ago to.be occupied by 500 governm-nt em ployc. In conseqeence el the accident there is a feelin of excitement among those employed in the other lui dings that are known to be unsafe- Secretary Smith is trying to all y this excitement in tbe pension office by having all the heavy stuff stored on tbe upper floors of that building transferred to the ground Soar. President Cleveland was one of the first cootribators to tbe fund that is heir g rais es lifer tbe belt) of tbe families of the clerks that were wounded and killed: be a-so directed that all flag on Use public build ing b half mared for tbe dead daks, sa honor that has never before been pud to an except high c rSeials as ex official. There are indicticms that Secretary Canute has in view a complete reorganiza tion ef the clekal force of tbe treasury department. He has addressed a circular letter'to all the bead of bureau directing them to send to him not later than the 25tu iast. a list of al tbe employes under them. showing age. number f years employed, those who entered the service under tbe civil service law of is-vS. tbsse who have wives, husbands, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters or other relatives e "ployed in any branch of toe gcvcinuMut: those em Ployed as clerks or o be' wise- with com pensation exoeedi: g SS4t a jcar. aho are doing work that properly U i r.gs to me sentrers. 'assistant ruewwegers and labor en. This has raised a com -.notion in the department, and no wonder, for the infor mation, if : given, and there is no doubt about that, is bound to lead to a grand shake up and a large number of dismissals. In taking this step Secretary Carlisle has set another good examp'e for the beads cf all tbe otb,r depar.nienta. O'JIItM UIU'.'UK'K.

Lven tbe same organs making this seosebss accusation admit that the trouble Is largely due to two causes name ly, the Sherman silver purchase bii! and tie long continued heavy exports of gold. No as to the Sherman bill, tbe Cleveland ad ministration manifestly cannot be held ac countable for that, because the n euurt was passed by a coegiesstepubl.can in botb branches and signed by Presi 'en! Hsnison. And how atout tbe gold exports? Touching thi important subject ihe New York W'oilJ presents some timely and en lightening figures, aluring President Cleve iaods first teim our net gain in go'd imports was $54,77.1.000. Ouriog Prc-iJent Har rison's administration the net loss of gold to this country by export as $122,624,000. Tbe I larrison administration received from the Cleveland administration $97,874 4"i in free cold, or that amount above the too.- 000,000 reserved. Last March all it turned over to the second Cleveland administra tion uas $oS7,ooo In gold, and that and more had been botrowedby Secretary Foster. Ia view of these undisputed facir-, it is reckless folly to ny to fasten upon the Cleveland Admmlstrition responsibility for the event, and conditions with which it had no more to do than Poutius Pilate. The chahraan of th lae republican con- ventiun of Ohio speaking of his paity said that "it hoards no great gums of u.oney in ihe trcisury " No, it does not.
