Sawed the Bear off.
One of our popular jewelers, the ' 'initials
of whose name is W. C. Crawford," for
everal weeks past has been doing some
carpenter work and assisting in the con
struction of a building for himself. Every
thing had went smoothly with the building
until last Monday, when Mr. Crawford uu
dertook to saw a 'stick of timber in two
which lie did quite painfully. He secured
one end ot the stick to the building and
climbed out on the end away from the build
ing which had no support and begun saw
ing between himself aud the building. He
had worked along in this measure for some
time, when all at once he realized that the
timber was sawed off, and that the bear
was also sawed off, and Crawford himself
had actually fell to the ground. The next
time the bear will have to stand on the
other end of the stick so that Mr. Crawford
may not get hurt. Fortunate to say that
Mr. Crawford only sprained his wrist, while
the "bear" did not otherwise get hurt.
For the Exhibit.
Waggoner & Buford are still desirous of
securing a few more samples of Oregon pro
ductions for the New Orleans exposition
Commissioner h. V. Allen was in the city
the first of the week, and was well pleased
with the samples already collected, one of
which was a hollyhock standing 14 ft. high;
another was that of a stool of wheat con
taining 110 straws all having a well filled
bead, the production ot one grain. tome
one counted the number of grains in one
head and figured on the yield, making it a
little more than 1000 bushels from one.
The car for which these samples are being
collected will start east about Angust 15th
bamples ot grain in the straw, cut as close
to the ground as possible, and also samples
of all kinds of grain after threshed will be
gladly received by Waggoner & Buford,

At no other point on the cost of Oregon
or Washington Territory, says the "Mail,''

.ve have a beautiful bay which can be util
ized for sailine, rowing, fishing and bathing.
An unrivalled ocean beach for driving anu

water fish, crabs, clams; aud two varieties
of oysters, and for the hunter, deer, bear

Parties who have been in the habit of going
to the mountains or to Clatsop beach or 11
waco, near the month of the Colombia,
will find after visiting Ya uina, that the
pleasures to be found at the latter place
surpasses by far those of the first named
places. Since the opening of tha Oregon
Pacific road for travel, even Portland peo
ple can get here as cheaply, and with much
less trouble than to other seaside resorts.
Come and see for yourselves, for we are sat
isfied that if you come once you will come
again.

What they Say.
The editor of the Montezuma
goes to make life pleasant, it is the famous
Willamette Valley. Iu this favored lo
cality the home seeker will find every ad
vantage of climate, soil and society. He
enjoys winters without cold and summers
without heat. His land will produce ama
zingly and quantity of fruits is almost op
pressive aud of the finest quality. But he
.oust have money with which to buy, for
.t would be absurd to believe that so highly
favored a locality had so far escaped the
knowledge of the world. The entire valley
lias been settled for ma ly years. They are
a highly intelligent class of people who know
they have a good thing and who cannot sell
out and 'go west" for they have reached
the verge. The land is, therefore, very
valuable and it takes i great deal of money
to get a farm"
'The boys of the Iowa press excursion
are "all broke uu" over the girls of the
Willamette Valley, Oregon. It is claimed
by experts that that section produces bet
ter looking women on the average than an
other in the United States."
Iowa Democrat Reporter: "nd now

That Wood.
Those parties who have threatened to sur
prise this office by bringing wood to pay
their subscription to the Gazette will do so
at once, or forever cease their threats, as it
is desirous to get wood cut and put in the
shed before harvest, and because parties who
so carelessly threaten to deliver wood after
harvest are always prevented from filling
their engagements by the early rains and
their fall work. Another very important
thing for those whe deliver wood is to come
co the office before unloading the same and
earn where it should be unloaded, and after
it is nicely corded, come again to the office
and see that they are credited on the books
for the value of the wood. There is a cor
rect and proper way for persons to do busi
ness those who deliver wood for subscript
ion as well as any other person.
