It is a Studebaker. with all modern improvements, six inch tires, etc, ordered through Stewart & Sox. i Dus Altany is able to present a met ropolitan appearance, for which the Democrat is glad to speak a good word. A Hobo Bajsd nana A novettv in the hobo line visited this city today in the way of a hobo band composes of seven pieces. The members of the band are Germans and were clad in blue caps. ordinarily sacK coats and blue trousem. They travel from town to town giving open air concerts on the street corners and begging from boose to house. Tbey also imbibed quite freely of beer while in me city bugeiie buard. ibis band struck Albany early this morning and at once began business .giv ing our citizens some excellent music for wbat tbey were willing to put tn the hat, playing from block to block. This is a new way but it is certainly more legiti mate t ban the professional tramo system. This band left Bavaria with 24 men on a trip around the world. Gradually it depleted in number until only seven are left. Tbey -re all fine musicians, and are in nowise hobo, though they have come to be known as tbe bobo band. A CsvrniT Re.

I ITCHIM HUMORS Inituflr Tfitlmd b CwrioMA Siminaa, A SPLENDID APPOINTMENT. From the Oreironian : Mayor Pennoyer yesterday, afternoon appointed a successor to Police Commis sioner Sylvarter B. Riegen. Francis A. Watts, of tbe firm of Watts & Matthieu, owners ot the Palace pharmacy. 280 Russell street, Albina, is tbe appointee. Mr. Watts is one of the early residence of Oregon, and a member ol the State Pioneer Association. He arrived in Ore gon in 1847, and, until about 7 years ago', resided in Albany and Shedd, Linn county, his step-father being Judge D. Haley, who was a prom I net democrat in the early times of Oregon. In politics, Mr. Watts has always been a democrat. and, as a representative of that party was a member of the Linn county demo cratic legislative delegation He was' among the democrats who voted for the election of John H. Mitchell for United States senator, at the special session of the legislature in 1883, no senator having been elected at the regular seesion.wbicU assembled in January of that year. During the time lie was a resident ol Linn county. Mr. Watts was engaged In tbe general merchandisingand drug bus iness, lie came to Portland about seven years aco. locating in Albina district. where he has since been engaged in tbe drug business. At tbe election held last June, be was a candidate for tbe legiB.a- tureon the democratic ticket, but.in com mon with others of his political faith, be was badly defeated During the presiden tial campaign, he was a warm supporter of Bryan and free siver, and to this more than all else he owes bis appointment as police commissioner ot Mayor rennoyer. The Dkmockat heartily endorses tbe appointment. I' is the best yet made by Mayor rennoyer. Mr. Watts is an up right man, as well as a gentleman and sagacious business man. In Oregon. Tbe Oregon delegation has recom- merded Judge Denny for minister to Hawaii. He was a candidate lor minis ter to Japan and is now willing to go to uawaii.

The report got out tbat the old couple intended to live to gether without tbe formality of a mar riage, and a number of alliens objected to such proceedine and threatened tbe old man with a coat of tar and feathers. Thus persuaded tbe old man procured a license and tbey were mamed. Mr. O'Neill, of the paper mill com pany, bas gone to Niagara to arramre for grinding wood pulp in their mill at tbat place, nnen tbat object is attained, they will manufacture papr ont of wood pulp, instead of straw aa at present, at their mill in Lebanon. Tbe change will be made on account of there being a greater demand for wood pulp paper. Tbey will, we believe, continue to man ufacture only brown wrapping paper. Tha change will make quite a difference to tbe farmers and working men of tbis vicinity, as tbe company bas been pay ing ont about $10,000 per year for straw and tbe hauling and stacking of tbe same.

From the Te'ciram : Secretary E O Masten, of the Ore gon state b ard of immigration, has come to tbe conclusion tbat times must lie much harder in tbe east than in the west. He bases this conclusion upon the tenor of tbe letters he is daily in receint of from people in all parts of the east and south asking for information concerning the state of Oregon. The writers have become dissatisfied with their lot and are anxious to turn their feet toward wider fields and greener pastures. Mao v oi tnem nave considerable means, and will be able to make a satisfactory start upon their arrival here should tbey r on elude to make this state their future home. That many will come to Oregon within the next year is evidenced by the iaci mas me writers uo uut stop Willi one letter. They send series after series of Questions, iudicating tbat they have a uruww purpose in view. Secretary Masum feels confident that tbis state will be materially benefitted b- tbe immigration that has already be gun. How a Deer Wan Cnuulit.

Her agei onlv 7 or 8 and. while piavinit in tbe yard. she noticed a small deer come into the garden, and afu-r feeding a short time lay down. Immediately she went after her father's bounds, and when they be gan to chase the little creature it made an effort to jump through a plank fence, but in place of succeeding, it became hopelessly welged in between two planks. Miss Stella ran and caught it by tbe foot, calling to her grandmother to come and belp her. The grandmother (Aunt Mehalajcame, held the deer while the little hunter secured a lone, and when Mr. Belknao returned thev had the stranger tied to tbe fence. Dr. J. L.

Broken Chain The family circle is never so happy after the chain is broken and a link taken." Some family chains are strong, others weak. Have you a good family history? Or is there tendency to coughs, threat or bronchial troubles, weak longs? Has a brother, sister, parent or near relative had consumption? Then your family chain is weak. Strengthen it. Take SCOTT'S Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with Hvpophosphites. It makes rich blood, gives stren gth and vigor to weak lungs and run-down constitutions. With its aid the system throws off acute coughs and colds. It pre vents the chain from breaking. Shall wc send you a book about this, free?
