Flremans Organization.
A meeting of the firemen from all over
the state have been in session from and
after the 4th inst. at Astoria, Oregon, where
tbey organized the Fireman's association of
Oregon. T. J. Buford was elected vice
president .and Joseph Weber, of Albany,
chairman of the board of directors. The
next meeting of the association will be held
at Salem, Oregon.
A Runaway.
A team driven by Dr. J. 13. Lee this week
a short distance this side of Philomath be
came excitable and ran away. They had
been left standing with the tugs unfastened,
hence they ran without the buggy. They
broke the harness so badly that the Doctor
had to return to Corvallis, riding bareback,
to get another harness before he could pro
ceed on bis way to visit the sick.
Sick.
William Holgate, eldest eon of E. Hol
gate, has been for some time at Soda
prings, in Jjun county, having gone there
with his mother, for health. While there
he was taken with the typhoid fever from
which he has so far recovered as to be able
to be brought to bis father's home iu this
place. He is now suffering and is very
aick from the effects of enlargement of the
pleen and his late sickness.
War.
During this week one of our up-town
merchants and an individual from the coun
try brought on some unpleasantness with
each other by way of tome differences ex
isting between them, which for a time
threatened war. The m:n of goods finally,
however, succeeded in securing a more fa
vorable position behind such breastworks
and fortifications as to escape the range of
the batteries of the former. When the
smoke blew away it was found that it was
not blood that was spilled. A small adjust
ment of costs seemed to bring about an am
icable settlement of matters, and peace was
then declared without further hostilities.
Narrow Escape.
While Mrs. E. Holgate was over at Soda
Springs, in Linn county, attending to her
sick son, she and her little girl started in a
one horse buggy, the horse being driven by
a friend. After going a short distance the
horse became frightened and started to run
ning and kicking. The driver becoming
more frightened than was the horse, let
loose of the lines and jumped out to catch
the horse by the head, leaving Mrs. Holgate
and her little girl alone in the buggy. For
tunately, however, after running some dis
tance, the horse run its head against a tree
knocking it down and . turning over the
buggy and spilling out the occupants with
out doing them harm,

Editor Gazette :
As the dry season is now at hand, and
danger from fire consequently greatly in
creased, allow me the space to call the at
tention of our citizens to this danger and to
urge upon all the necessity of great care in
handling fire under all circumstances, and to
request every resident of the city to give
particular attention to the condition of their
flues, moss-covered roofs, untidy alleys,
back yards, etc., and to guard with watch
ful caution at all times against the fire fiend.
I desire also to remind all that the laws
passed by our City Council governing these
matters will be strictly . enforced by the
proper officers, and no one should complain
who has the true interests of the city at
heart. Wallace Baldwin,

'Obituary.
Mrs. Nancy Allen, the wife of Morris
Allen and the daughter of James and Lena
A. Cooper, after a long and painful illness,
departed this life July 5, 1882, aged 28yrs.,
9 moi and 29 days. The bereaved husband
and four little children have the heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community. A de
voted wife and fond mother has been re
moved by the stroke of death--leaving a
void that earth can never till. She had a
heart to feel and a hand ever ready to re
lieve the sufferings of her fellow beings. A
true Christian woman has gone to rest, and
an entire community mourn her loss. Her
funeral was preached by the Kev. Joseph
Emery, after which a large concourse of
friends followed her remains to their last
resting place in the Newton grave yard,
there to await the resurrection of the just.
God pity the sorrowing husband and
orphaned children. T. J.

borrow and sickness is
heritage of hutnasity and when we aetf
how little is done to alleviate the miscrwe'
of the great mass of humanity we are almost
out of patience with life. Even where the'
intentions are best, ignorance is prone t
bid tbe afflicted "suffer and be strong," in-,
stead of "ministering to the mind diseased."
or laying a hand of healing on the poor tor.'
tured body.
Ah! when Science aiid Philanthropy, witk1
love and sympathy aud skill, come to the,'
aid of the sufferers, they feel as if the angel
of anaunciation had drawn near.
.Samaritan Nervine really 'is salvation to
thousands. I speak from a full heart when
I say it, for friends very near and dear to
me have been restored to health and happi
ness by means of it. .
"God bless Dr. Richmond, said one ol
them to me the other day. "I feel as I
know the man mentioned in Scripture must
have felt when he went from Tqnlsafcrn Ui'
Jericho and fell among thieves, and- whtf
robbed and at the point -of death, wa be;
friended atfd restored to health In the Good-
Samaritan." ,
' ' Yes, " he continued, that? was- exactly
my condition. I bad spent a forMa in
doctor's bills and patent medicines." Jive-'
ry thing I could hear of I tried, so desperate
was my situation, but I grew worse stead-"
ily, until some kind friend told me of the
Samaritan Nervine. Since taking it I am,
as you see, restored to perfect health.
With such incontrovertible proof of the
beneficent nature of the remedy, it is not
strange that an editor, always solicitous for
an accurate knowledge of what could bene
fit the world in general, should take thei'
earliest opportunity of visiting the iitven-
tor and proprietor of the medicine at the"
World's Epileptic Institute:
We found the doctor in his elegant pri-.
vate office busily engaged in superintending
the gentleman whose business it is to attend
to the details of the immense correspon
dence which is a natural result of his wide
spread reputation.
On making' known our wishes, he-very
kindly accompanied us in our tour ef in-
spection through the magnificent building
and grounds.
Almost as soon as wc entered the offietv
our attention was arrested by a wonderful
collection of photographs, numbering some-'
where in the thousands. All nations, age'
and stations were represented. The ele
gant carte of the society leader was side bjr
side with the picture of the humble artisanf
innocent childhood and withered : old age.
showed in their counterfeit presenthneBlsf
the gratitude they could not speak ; doctSirk
lawyers, ministers of the gospel, soldiers,'
laborers, plain mothers of families, haughty
children of wealth, rich ami poor, high aaa'
low, black and white, all were represented
It reminded me of the miracle cures of Jfin-"
rope, only instead of the crutches, bandages)'
gold, silver and wax images of tlfe recupe
rated pilgrims, left before the shrine of the"
miracle worker, Dr. llichmond has as testi
monials the pictures of his deeply' graWf M
patients. . . . . ....
"Yon must feel very happy, doctor, 'wheat'
you look at this- collection, we said.
"Ah! yes," said the doctor pleasantly,
"but if you like my Art Gallery, what
would yon say to my Library?"
He ltd the way to the next apartnfent,
and we followed, expecting only to eee
perhaps one bookcase tilled with dristy
tomes of abstract science. Itotead,.the
walls were lined with Very handsome book
cases, containing over one hnlttlred tkona-
and unsolicited testimonials fron' those
whom the Nervine had' cured.
"How wonderfully fortunate as well as
talented you are," we exclaimed in amaie
ment. "The Nervine has proved a penecV
goldmine." -;
The d jctor looked at us reproachful!. , -
"I am not one to underestimate the value
of wealth," he answered, "for I have"Tehown
what it is to be without it, but what Ja tit
most collossal fortune that was everin the
grasp of mortal man in comparison to the
good my remedy U doing? Picture to yoW
sclf, if you can, what must he the feeline
of an epileptic. Think of him with tuis:
dreadful disease so long pronounced incura
ble. He cannot take part in the studies;
duties, employments, recreations or amuse
ments of an ouhnary fellow being. H is
an object of horror rather than of pity to"
his friends. His malady never stands stilljr
it is constantly growing worse and more
dreadful iu all its phases, ljtat and: most
dreadful before him stands the awfuTplfssi
tom of insanity. Sleeping or waking be
ieels that it is there, and that sooner or
later it will clutch him; and it does.' An'
epileptic must be, like Job, tempted to curse
Heaven and die. Why, it- would' bring
teara to your eyes to read a letter I received
from a geutlemairat Potsdam, New York,:
telling how he had two thousand dreadful;
tits iu eighteen months, aud is now, thanks;
to the Nervine, entirely cured. That poor
fellow can scarcely find words strong
enough to express his feelings. . That's; the.
kind of a thing to make a man feel hagpjr"."
