Blanchard, and he says haiU from Goldendale. He struck Cor- vallisaturday,and one of the first things he did was to get tolerably drunk. That nigut r.o went out on a loragmg expedi tion, and never stopped until he had raided successfully the dwellings of Rev. H. Gould, John Scott, M. Jacobs and Prof. J. B. Horner, lie was successful in capturing booty only at Scott's and Jacobs'. At the first place he secured Lum Scott's coat, vest and watch, and at tho latter, the overcoats of Isadore Jacobs and Postmaster Johnson. At eleven o'clock Sunday night he was taken in custody by othcer McLagan.and after a little coaxing owned np to his misdeeds, and the stolen property.which had been secreted about Afayor McFad den!s new residence on College Hill, was recovered. Monday afternoon Blanch ard was arrainged in Justice Holgate's court, where he pleaded guilty to bur glary of the coat, vest and watch and was bonnd over in $750 bonds to await the action of the grand jury. He also pleaded guilty to the larceny of the two overcoaU and was promptly sent to jail ior mree monins Dy uie stern justice. " urvains aimes. t as Uallkd A Ut-ST. A correspon dent in the Salem Tost called Represent' attve Klundell the "Itonglas county runt." This made L. H. McMahon mat, and as none of his literature has appear- eu in me wemockat tor a good while we give a sample: Mr. Blundell is au ex ceedinglv sinal! man, and to a boor the term "runt" mav appear applicable But Mr. Blundell is a eentleman, a lie irg as incomprehensible to the man who sneaks behind a nom de tlume to m dulge in uncalled for and ungentlemanlv personal attacks as anything could well be. His ace. his weak ilinii-al con dition anl poor health should cause any man to refrain from attacking him in a personal manner. Those who have the pleasure of his personal acquaintance hold liiii) in the highest esteem. He is a jolly companion and always a gentle man, tor the man. who wrote that ar ticle, every honest man has supreme contempt. In the first place, he is a sneaking coward, as is evinced by the fact that he did not attach his name to the article. The article is proof suffici ent that its author is a hoodlum. He mar be an opium fiend, a tin-horn gambler or a bosom friend of Jim Wil son. His letter indicates that he is well fitted for anv profession to which gener al moral depravity is an essential ad junct. A Revisbi Spkbc-h. Willard Elk ins, of Dallas, a nephew of James Elkins of this citv, has just revised Patrick Henry's great speech, so that it reads: Mia 1 1 we baselv submit to the i-ol.i standard, or declare ourselves free and independent? If we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle, ior "free coinage of silver, in which we are en gaged, and which we have pledged Our selves, never to abandon until the glor ious oojeet oi our contest snail be ob tained we must vote ! I repeat it, we must vote! An appeal to the laboring men and to the God '.' hosts is all that is left ns. It is vain to extenuate the matter, Mr. McGowan may rrv gold, eace ! pbut there it no peace. The fight between the capitalists and the laboring men is actually begun ! The next gale that sweeps from the East will bring to oar ears the clash of resounding arms ! Our brethren, of the Coxev army, and already in the field. Wliy stand we here idle? What i it Mr." Uackleman would have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to he purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it. Al mighty God! I know not what course others may take ; but as for me, give me free coinage of silver, or give medeath." A Poetical Advebtisemect. An As toria painter advertises in a style of which the following is a sample: And the little Kwopesyswipesy learned of every paint its color, learned its name and combinations, how to mix it on his palette; how to mix it up in buckets; how to put it on with brushes, put it on and make it stay there, make it stick and stay there tightly, so the sun's rays would not blister, "and the fogs and damp of winter w ould not fade or change the color. With his brushes made of bristles from the wild boar of the forests, and the hair of bear and sable, and the long hair of the camel, these he handles quick and deftly; fashions with tnem many letters, various in style and color, that adorn the signs of commerce, ad vertising firms and business on the wig wams of the paleface. Thet Wbke Fixed. The muchly de pleted city exchequer was enriched Mon day in the sum of 28 $16 of which was contributed by Charles Mummerv and the balance by Cam Hemphill". The contributions were the result of last Saturday's altercation, for which Mum mery was arraigned on a charge of assault and battery. Something of a sensation swept over the court room when Mr. Hemphill, after receiving sentence, arose to his feet and boldly announced that there waa a vast amount of gambling going on in town, and that it must be stODned. Some develop ments along this line are expected as a result of the announcement. Times. Not Recovered. The body of a man supposed to be Prior Scott seen at the mouth of the Santiam, was carried out of sight by the water before it could be secured, and it has not yet been found. It was in the evening just before dark when observed, too late too do anything that night. As the Eugene was stuck on a bar Uie men could not do anything. The description leaves little doubt that it was the body of Mr. Scott. Fik at Ievisq. Yesterday morning a house belonging to J. W. Bond, on his larm about tour miles northwest of Ir ving, burned down. The fire was dis covered about 10 o'clock in the forenoon, and the building is a total loss. How it originated we have been unable to learn The loss is about $1300 on the house and contents together. There was $000 in surance on the house and $100 on the contents, in the I-1 reman Fund Insur ance Company of San Francisco. Reg' istr. -Wants A Bonus. Do our people want work to be pushed on Coos Bay railroad from the Roseburg end? If bo.$50.000 is sufficient to obtain that object. In this instance money talks there is no use to waste newspaper space about it. Rose burg Review. If Roseburg can raise a $50,000 bonus she will be entitled to the best railroad to be secured.

The situation at tho Red Crown mills continues to be the principal topic of conversation on the streets today. The facts are substantially these : There are some 20,000 or 80,000 bushels of wheat stored in the mills, as nearly as can bo learned, and no wheat in the bins or flour on hand. Mr. William Vance and Mr. S. E. Young, who had 4,000 and 5,000 bushels of wheat in storage visited the mill yesterday afternoon and exam ined Uie bins themselves. They were practically empty. Other prominent storers are Mr. Barrett, with 3,000 bushels, John Clelan with 1100 and a good many with a few hundred bushels and many with less than 100 for flour purposes. In a number of cases, prin cipally wuu neavy storers, their consent was obtained to use the wheat. Some ot the wheat was a car load collected for Nebraska. No attachments had been made this afternoon, and it is possible wui not, as negotiations are pending. wiucu it is to ue tiopeaare consummated, whereby the mill will go into the hands of a new company in which Wadlutms & Co., of Portland, and others are inter ested, in which case it is said there will be provisions whereby the storers of wheat will at least be partially secured It may be depended upbn that the mill win be placed on its teet and be running at an early day. It is one of the finest plants on the Pacific Coast and already mere are orders ahead ior a big run. Mr. Jonas Davis, of Shedd, is lying dangerously ill. Mr. Miller Morgan, of Shedd, was re cently united in marriage in Oregon City to a resident ot that city, particulars ol which the Democrat has not yet received. G. W. Philips, one of the propietors of the rcio tlounng mills, passed through town yesterdav en route tor Alsea after a band of sheep that he will put on one of his farms in the forks of the Santiam.

Dummett, traveling secretary for the Pacific Northwest, will accom pany Mr. Ober Salem Journal. C. B. Wells and daughter, Mrs. Greg ory, returned Alorulay irom Albany, where they were expecting that the Ut ter would be compelled to undergo anth er painful operation upon her arm. The limb, however, was tound much improv ed, an operation waa deemed unneces sary. After making a careful examina tion, we are pleased to stale mat it. Maston expressed strong bones for the patient's recovery without the necessity of amputating the arm as waa expected a week ago. Corvallia Gazette. F. F. Sharpie. Horace V. Winchell and Alex Donald, of Minneapolis, were in the city yesterday. JThey were on their way to examine some black sand mining properties in loos county. l hey went to isquina on the l. t . train and will take a steamer down the coast. Ir. Sharplees was formerly professor of mm- erology and mining in Houghton school of mineral and mining in Michigan, and Prof. inchell is a very prominent geol ogist and mining expert. Both gentle men are acquaintances oi i roi n asn bum. Corvallia Times. The geographical social given by the f. P. S. C.

Pendleton claims to have more bicycle riders than any city in Oregon except 1 ort land. and puts the number of bicycles from PiOtolHO. That is simply talk. Albany is so full of ' wheels they can hardly he counted. Throw a stone and it is pretty sure to hit a bicycle. 50 to 75 have al ready been sold here this year. After a long trial completed last night W. W. Sanders, of lacomb, arrested for carrying concealed weapons, was found not guilty ana was discharged, the case ex cited considerable interest, and particularly attracted attention on account ot the nuuv her of 'awjers engaged in it. Tub Equinox. The vernal equinox oc curred yesterday, and the days and nights are now equal. The sun arose direct ly in the east and passing the xenitii set in the west. Now is the time to regulate your compass. The Willamette valley is celebrating the event with a welcome rain. Who waa the farmer that re marked that we were about to have a drouth. One or Comelt'b Jokes. Mr. 3. B. Comely is circulating the rejort that John Berry while in Southern Oregon last winter lost one of his ayes, which he replaced with a buckeye that worked so well he took out the other optic and put in a buckeye so as to have the eyes equal, and now sees better than ever. This is a sample of the fun Mr. Comely is having at Berry's expense. A Swindle it at Lamou. Several busi ness men in Eugene were swindled in the following manner: A tr.an signing his name as a Mr. "Baker" and repre senting the house of Mark Ixvy A Co. of Portland was in Eugene a short time ago. Ho was traveling as "off" man, or com mission on the goods ho sold. He nnr. ported to have a carload of oranges which he wai anxious to dispone of very cheap ly in Willamette valley towns, and made sales to a nuiiiUT ot Kiigene merchants. He sold the goods very cheap. They were delivered in due time. The bills accompanying the gondralled for higher prices than those which Mr. Baker 'had airreed to sell them for, and Messrs. Hall & Son wrote Levy A Co. notifying tham of that fact and stating what they agreed to. This aroused the suspicion of Lew A Co.,who immediately telegraphed Hall A Son to not pay any money to Baker and to instruct the other merchant! who had bought of him the same, but the tel egram was too late. Baker put iu ap iearanco Tm-sday morning and collected money on the goods sold. E. I. Pool paid him in cah and the rest paid him by checks, which he endorsed and e enred the money. Tuesday afternoon ho secured a rig at'lUmrs' stable and A oh I j Stevens drove him to Junction, where he cla'.med to have some business to trans act and then wished to catch the over land train to Portland. The last heard from him was that he boarded the over land train at Junction for San Francisco, The authorities are on his trail ami will nojdetMbt soon capture him. Tut Third Time. Anything the Ore- gonian says about Yaquina is always ot interest: "In compliance with a pro vision contained in the sundry civil bill, pawed bv the late congress, bv authority of the secretary of war, a board of en gineers, consisting of Lieutrnatit-Colonel Amos Sticknev. stationed at Cincinnati: Mator James h. Post, of this citv, and Major Clinton B. Sears, of iKiluth, have been appointed a loard of engineers to make au examination of the lr at Ya quina bay. The board is to convene at .Newport, but the dale has not leen til ed. It will be remembered that the people at Yaquirfa are anxious to have the enterenee to the hay made deep enough to accomodate decp-ea ve!els. and that Major Huser and laptain hy mons, L". S. engineers, have each re ported unfavorably to this scheme. The people were not satisfied with these re tort, and, at their request. Representa tive Hermann secured the apiointment of the above-named ifwrd. none of whom have been connected with anv of the previous examinations of Use letr. The third time is a charm, ami, if this board decides that it is practicable to secure a deep entrance to the bav. the people there will be much pleased".' Disittks Da. Watt's Statekext. The Ptayton Times disputes a historical ques tion with Dr. J. . Watts, of this city, as follows: lr. Watts in bis first Vr rnon here claimed that the prophecies (Jer. 2o and Ia. 13 that BabvUm should tieeonie "a perpetual delation" in which no Arabian should pilch his tent, were entirely fulfilled and that no man could stay all night within the ruin of the ancient cuy and come out alive. e believe that the lV. is slightly mistaken on this point.

Martis vs. Kim TheMcMinnvilie Telephone Rgister gives an account of the recent shooting makli between Mar tin and Kinxel : "The shooting match between Martin and Kinxel. at Hills!ro, on Tuelav, was won bv Martin so tar as the killing of birds is concerned. Martin ki!-d 23 and Kin i 21 wit of 25. Kinxel challenging Martin's she!! it waa found that one ol them contained more shot titan the rules allow. The matter i yet in the hands of the referee, but the general opinion i that the money will 1 given to Kinec!. The Portland people undoubtedly fiim fiammed the Yamhiller." Martin rare ly makes a match that does not end in unpleasantness. F ine Prospects. It has been a good many rears since the Willamette valley has had as favorable outlook for an over whelming crop at this seaon of the year, both in grain and fruit as this year ad vance. The w inter season has been so delightfully mild that no man can possi bly nrxl an ex-ue lor not Having ni grain crop all in, his orchard well culti vated, and his lcrry crop well iookci al ter, and there are few cultivator of the soil who are in need of an excuse the work is practically all done. Everything seems to have worked harmoniously this year. Register. Certainly the outlook i good so far. Let us hoj-c it will keep up the present speed. A HomuBiK Death. A colored man known aa Reuben was burned to death Monday morning at a ranch a few miles from Drain. He was living alone in a small cabin. He awoke almut four o'clock and found his cabin and bed in flames. While trying to unfasten the door his clothing was burned from his liody. He was found soon alter daylight lving on a blanket near Uie site of his cabin. After Wing burned he went to a stream near by and threw water on his body, his path K-ing marked by Eieceso'f burned flesh. He lived six ours aiter being found. Important Chlnoe. Wm. Stilt, of Newport, has come into full possession of all the Braslield property at Seal Rock, and we are informed that lie has moved onto and taken tossession of the same. Mr. Braslield is now in thrden, Vtah, and has been there for several months. It is stated that he will return to this county at an early date, however. Leader. Oheoox all Rioht.

Cod-liver Oil is useful beyond any praise it has ever won, and yet few are willing or can take it in its natural state. Scott's Emulsion of Cod -liver Oil is not offensive; it is al most palatable. Children like it. It is Cod-liver Oil made more effectual, and combined with the Hypophosphites its strengthening and flesh-forming powers are largely increased.

It is said that upon his arrival arramrementfl mav lm mail wli storers of wheat will be provided for. It is to lie hoped this is done, as there is growing considerable of a feeling in the niuiier. inie some gave their consent to the use of their wheat a good many did not, and hence are very indignant over us use.

Times. Bad AccrcKST. An accident which came near causing the death of Ira Mc Cormack, happened last Sunday about a mile ami a half east of Brownsville. George Keeney was riding his bucking cavil ee, and Ira, desiring to create a little sport for the bystanders, jumped on behind him. The load proved too heavy for Uie little meed, and no sooner hail Ira become seated than Uie horse fell, both riders falling underneath. In his scramble to get up and gain his free dom the animal planted his hoofs in Ira's face, and also in various places on his bodv. His shoulder blade was broken, breast badlv bruised and coun tenance slightly disfigured. Mr. Keeney escaped wiUiotit a scratch. McOormick was unconscious ior a long time a ner Wing picked up, but Dr. Cox was called and administered to ins needs, and i will doubtless be spared to enjoy the lessons thus taught regarding w ild and bucking horses.

Power Latest U. S. Gov't Report OREGON THE HAVEN. Letters from Oregonians to Eastern papers are always of interest. Mr. A.

It is now j two years since I and my family the pat almost tnnl Ufrp. Thia malrM fl, tl.il vmtM i I have been in Oreeon. As vou remem- ' ber, I in company with James Loack was here in December and January of '92 and '93 and I w ill say that the storm that we then experienced was by far the w orst I have seen since, as at no time have we had enow to lay a day oh the ground and I have not seen a tingle day that a man could not plough in the winter, aa on no day was it frozen too hard. This winter especially needs com mendation. In fact, we have had no winter np to the present time, as the different samples of vegetation I send vou will show. The samples I send vou I have picked on my place in the door yard and garden and w heat field. By the way, my hogs and sheep are pastur ing on the winter wheat too. Now these are not the smallest samples nor are they fhe beet. I have some friends in Iowi that I would like to have see things as I see them and as we have only one life to live on this sphere, I don't thick it is lengthened any by cold or exposure. In inn country we can M;.-e everv thing you can there and a great deal more, such as prunes, peach, pears, apricotsi almonds and quinces, to say nothing of tbe vast array of berries. Whv, I Lave seen straw berries that measured nine inches in circumference and had apples that measured fourteen inches arorlnd. You say, -Do vou like Oregon?" Why, blew you, yes I oniy wish it had been possible to have come here tea years azo before democratic times struck 'ns. The man who owned a farm here then would have lieen able to live like a lord and with half Uie economy he has to practice in Iowa could have mile money. Tree, times are Lard here now bet from ail accounts thev are no worse here than there. I have been plowicz with two tea 3, for the pas; three weeks, and have sown about tweiMv acres oi erain and it is now coming up. Apples are still on the trees un'rozen. I e-x one to day. Soon the blossoms wiil be starting on the trees. If anv of vour readers are tired of cold vou can tell them that here is their haven of resn and there never was, nor I don't believe there ever will be a time when they can rir hemselves as cheaply. The Red Crown .Hills. Mr. J. R. Stockman of the Eed Crown Mills came up trom Portland last ciirht after some papers needed in the sale cf the mill and returned on the morning rain.
