"Everybody on i'uget bound has the Klondike ievor," snid a traveling man at a down town hotel in Astoria, says the Budset. "and every man. -woman and child is either going np to the land of snow and gold or is helping some one else on too way. ltie men who haven't the means to buy an out tit and pay their passage are lending what little monev they nave to ineir neighbors. One day a man was found lying on the sidewalk in a beastly state cf intoxication. A policeman thiew him into the patrol wagon and carted him to the police station. When he was searched a ticket for Aiask by a steamer that was billed to si ten minutes later was found. The police dragged the man back to the patrol wagon, threw him in, ran the horses all the way to the wharf and hustled the inebriat aboard just as the gang plank was pulled in." Another Pater R. R. The leading business men of Eureka, says the ores cent City Record, have decided to ac cept the offer of 0. A. Harp to build a railroad from Enreka to Grants Fas. Harp claims to represent capitalists who will push the construction of the road. He asks the citizens of Humboldt to subscribe $375,000, and to furnish 10 acres of land for a railroad terminus in Eureka and sufficient eround for a proper terminus in Areata, and to secure free right of way for the road between Eu- rena ana Areata. The promoters agree to issue to the Enrekans first mortgage bonds to secure payment of the 1370.000 subscribed. The proposed road would pass within 10 miles of Crescent City. It hasalwT8 been thought a railroad to Eureka from Red Bluff or an Francisco bay wonld be a paying investment, but no one has ever speculated on the possi bilities of a road running to Grants Pass.

It was Italian urone and was destined for Chicago. On the siding at Granger a loaded car is awaiting today's train to start on the lone trip East, and another is to leave Philomath today. The additional cars are expected to be shipped from Granger and an equal nam her from Philomath. At the Corvallis station three refrigerator cars are also waiting to be loaded with crunes. In most of the orchards picking ard pack ing is still in progress in soite of the in. clement weather. Alaska's Prosperity. Judge M. G. Munlv, who has just returned from a rip to Alaska on legal business, savs tha in his opinion the Stickeen river route to the ukon is the most feasible aod practicable, and is attended with be least obstacles for goldseekers. The judge is rnoet favorably imprcaeei with the out ioot for Southeastern AlaBka,)and he talis interestingly of the development work outlined for that wonderful land of riches of all kinds. A boom is on the tapis at Wrangel, he says, and whether tuondise proves all that is expected or not, the coast of Alajka is going to enjoy prospsri.y . Telegram. Another Okecox Gesics. Recent ad vices from the famous cartoonist. Homer Davenport, indicate that still another of "Old Marion's" eons is likely to Uke prominent place in the artistic world. namely young Frank Forward, a eon of ex-Sheriff Blair Forward, deceased. Tbe lad's work is admitted by this eminent utbority to be something remarkable in artistic touch and reality of likenees. and so impre$ed is Mr. Davenport with the quality of it that be intends finding position for the young man at the earl- est opportunity. Statesman. When Frank C. Richen. was re cently killed by the cars between Wal- lula and Umatilla, left Oregon City for Eastern Oregon, he had f SO sewed np in bis shirt. This information was given by his wife, who recovered the money when the remains were disinterred at Umatilla. Why a man with money enough to pay bis fare would risk bis ife bv riding on the truss rods of a pas senger coach is a curious question. Prof. Scott today returned from his outing at Sodaville. Mr. Wren Ros and family left today for the Waldo hills for a couple weeks outing. Frank Perkett. L. Jacobs and two other men of the Upper Santiam left yes tesday for tbe Klondike.

The recent rain has done great damage to hops. The hops in the Haley yard in Syracuse prrcinct were so badly molded as to necetuitate abandon ;ng the yatd, and no doubt many other yards are in the same situation. Tbe wheat can stand considerable more rain. though not a good thing ih it. FRO.HTHKSANDW ICII ISLANDS. Mr. and Mrs George Otterson. of the Sandwich Islands, arrived in Albany this noon on a visit with County Clerk B. Montague. Mr. Otterson's father and Col. Montague were college mates, as well as relatives. Mr. Otterson is in tbe government employ and is one of the most polished gentlemen it is ones privi lege to meet. Mr. and Mrs. Otterson left Honolulu on August loth. He re ports the sentiment there among ail classes ripe for annexation, and had there bren any display by the lap the American nag would have been raised belore he left, anr orders had been is uvd to that effec,but the position taken by Japan made tlvU unnecessary. Presi dent Dole stand high there, a man re spected by the peoele, and Minister Sew- ii he reports very popular, lie is now building an elegant palace. Americans now have t0,000,000 invested there aod hence most interested in the proper gov ernment ot the islands. Tbe Japs are now being replaced by men from other countries as an experiment. Tbe wealth M the country cas been principally in sugar : but now coffee is forging ahead and promisee to become an industry of sufficient magnitude to supply the en tire U. S. hile in ban t- rancisco Mr. Otterson met Mr. Ballou, one of the leading coffee men of the island, who is greatly encouraged by tbe prospects. There as well as in tbe U. S. people have the Klondicitis badly and the word is alresdv in common use. Three or four big Klondike companies have al reapy been formed and several represen tatives are on the way. Mr. aad Mrs. Otterson altera short vi.il here will go north, perhaps to Ju neau and then east on a tour of the U. They deserve a pleasact experience. Coming Sheriff's Safest.

Whether or not Us mileage sretem is an equitable system a between tbe counties is another ques tion. For instance Douglas county has about 116 miles of road bed. Lane about 40 and Linn about 30. At $5000 per mile Douglas county taxes tbe railroad at a valuation of $50.000 exclusive of rilling stock, while Lane would have but $230,000 and Linn 1150,000: and yet either county contributes much more to the revenues otwhe road than Douglas.

Beardslev of tbe navy department. It is implied thai trouble is brewing and that the Royalists are preparing to cause trouble, arranging for a meeting preparatory to taking action, sir. George Otterson, who left this noon for Seattle, wbere he will visit a couple of weeks, mention 61 whom was meV yesterday, and who came up on tbe same steamer with Mr. Beardsley, informs the Dsmocsat that there is nothing in tbe matter at all. Oat of population of 106,000 only about 7,000 are royalists men poeseeing little power there. The natives have generally signed petiiiooa for annexation, tboogh they are easily ' innuenceo: into new ibinss, and are in favor of tbe movement. The Jan., in- stead of being strong there, are not of sufficient numbers to have much stand ing. In view ot the great interest in the Sandwich islands tbe DsuocnaT baa se cured from Mr Otterson the following interesting statements in reference to the islands and their industries: The Hawaiian Islands srs situated on the very edge ot tbe tropics, bnt their posit'on in mid ocean and the prevalence of tbe northwest trade wind iTes them s climate unequalled by any other por tion of the glooe a perpetntl summer wiuiont an enervating beat. Tbe rain fall varies, being grea'er on tbe wind ward side of the Islands aod increasing up io a certain e.evation. Thus, at Glaa, on tbe island of Hawaii, windward sice ana elevation ot about 2,000 ft, tbe rainfall from July lst.lS94.to Jnne SOtn. 1695, was 176 82 inches, while at Ksriua. on tbe leeward side, at a low IvrtA it wa only 51.21 inches daring the same period. xueiemperaiors also vanes according to elevation and position. On the inland of Hawaii voa can get any climate from the heat of summer to actual winter at the sommita ol the two great mountains. A meteorological record, kept careful ly for a period of twelve vears. eivea as the highest and 54s as the lowest tem perature recorded, or s mean temnera- tnre of 71 degrees 30' for tbe year. A case of sunstroke bas never been known. There are eight islands in the Hawriian group. The others are mere rocks of no value to mankind at present. These eight islands sv named l liban, Kauai, Cahu, (wbere the port of Honolulu is situated) Molokai, Tanal. KahooLame. Maui and Hawaii. Tbe total areas of all the islands ia 9,740 miles. Tbe islands that Interest snd intending resident are Uaoi, Cahu and Maui. It is on these islands that coffee, fruit, potatoes ani vegetable can be raised by the small tnvsetor the vear round. On the Islard of Hawaii ia wbere cof fee raising has become quite an industry. Plantations range from the man with 3C0.CU0 trees to him who nas only an acre or so, there are thousand upon thousands of acres st present uncultivat ed and only await the sturdy arms and enterprising brains of tbe temperate xone Anyone sending their names to he DcMocsar will have them sent to Honolulu lor reference, and will receive ii tbe inicrmauon dewed.

True, SnpL A Bright Girl Cary Martin in the Eugene Journa tells the following pretty incident about a young lady, for whom a marriage It cense was Issued in A Ibany yesterday, mention of which was made in last night's Dsbocsat: A rather short, stoat-built young girt in short dresses and wonderfully bright in ma the mates attended the public schools at Harrisbnrg a good many years ago ibe teacher bad a class in Brook s Higher Arithmetic, a book one higher than the written arithmetic now need in the pub'ic schools, snd aboot ten times aiincuit. une uay me leacner naa some very critical visitors who were in doubt as to whether some of tbe young looking pupils could unravel those al most brain splitting problems. The teacher said : "Gentlemen, pick oat the most difficult example in the book and give it to that little girt ia short skirts and she will go to the blackboard and solve it." They chose a problem, a sinjer," as tbe boys expressed it The young lady read it over a 'time or two silently, tripped slowly np to tte black board snd began to ugure. Laltls by li:tle the board filled with neatly made figures while the visitors strained their thinking powers to follow the youthful mathmeucian. When hardly space was left for another figure sway novo low in the corner of the blackboard she wrote the answer to the complete gratification ot the teacher and the admiration of tbe visitors. This is the first recollection I have of seeing Miss Etta Levis, the young balem school teacher who has quite i cently been elected to a professorship in the McMinnviiie college. Ors SroAa.
