Aug. Hornung, a well known manuf ic
tuierof boots and shoes at 820 Nolan St.,
;San Antonio, Texas, will not soon forget his
experience with an attack of the cramps
-which he relates as follows: "I was taken
with a violent cramp in the stomach which
I believe would have caused my death, had
it not been for the prompt use of Chamber
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
The first dose did me so much good that I
followed it up in 20 minutes with the sec
ond dose, and before the doctor could get to
where I was, I did not need him. This
Remedy shall always be one of the main
stays of my family. " For sale by T. Graham.

The Parent of Insomnia.
The parent of insomnia or wakefulness is
in nine cases out of ten a dyspeptic stomach.
Good digestion gives sound sleep, indiges
tion interferes with it. The brain and
stomach sympathizes. One of the promin
ent symptoms or a-weak state or iue gastric
organs is a disturbance of the great nerve
entrepot, the brain. Invigorate the stom
ach, and yon restore equilibrium to tne great
centre. A most reliable medicine for the
purpose is Hogtetter's Stomach Bitter.-,
which is far preferable to mineral sedatives
and powerful narcotics which, though they
may for a time exert a soporific influence
upon the brain, soon cease to act, and in
variably injure the tone of the stomach.
The Bitters on the contrary, restore activity
to the operations of that all important or
gan, and their beneficent influence is reflect
ed in sound sleep and a tranquil state of the
nervous system. A wholesome impetus is
likewise given to the action of the liver and
bowels by its use.
A Mean Man. The man Veru'g, who is
in jail awaiting the action of the grand jury
on a charge of larceny, certainly is a fit
' subject for such a place. Last week he
; sent some dirty clothes to a poor woman,
J and after she had washed and ironed them
j the sheriffs deputy weut with Vernig to
get them. The bill was twenty cents but
1 Vernig said he had no money and did not
pay the bill. The deputy went up town
with him for something and Vernig stepped
into a store and bought twenty-live cents
worth of tobacco and paid for the same.

Deafness Can't Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portions of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
eau.ed by an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of ths Eutachiau Tube. When
tlii tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be takeu out and
this tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of teu are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an iullumed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that we cannot cure by taking Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

had a very severe attack of flux. I tried
almost every known remedy, none giving
relief. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy was recommended to me.
I purchased a bottle and received almost
immediate relief. I contiuued to use the
medicine and was entirely cured. I take
pleasure in recommending this remedy to
any person suffering with such a disease, as
in my opinion it is the best medicine in ex

oity, and
Whf.reas, We should at all times bow

OREGON WEATHER REPORT,
for western ore.ion, for week ending
saturday, august 15, 1891.
A few showers occurred along the coast;
in the interior valleys the mornings were
cloudy, cool and damp from dew; the after
noons were warm; the maximum temper
ature ranging from 78 to 90 degrees. The
nights have been warm, causing the daily
mean temperature to be above the average
from 2 to 4 degrees a day.
CROPS'
Threshing of fall wheat has been in opera
tion. The berry is, as a rule, large and
plump audit is considered to be extra good
milling wheat. Portland price this morn
ing is 87 ceuts per bushel, which is about
10 cents per bushel more than was paid this
time last year. Yields of from 25 to 40
bushels per acre are generally reported.
Mr. W. H. Goudy, of Hubbard. Maiiou
county, threshed out 970 bushels of wheat
from a field of 23 acres. This liclu has
been in continual wheat cultivation for 35
years. The cool weather in the mornings
retards ripening of spring grain and causes
grain to be rather tough for threshing until
the sunshine becomes warmer. In Curry
county four crops of alfalfa, blades about
twenty-two inches long, have been cut this
year up to July 25th, without irrigation.
Oats are heavy and a good crop. Serious
damage is feared from the hop louse.
Peaches, corn and melons are fully an aver
age crop. Watermelons are now ripe in
Josephine couuty.
Camping at the Bay. The' hills sur
rounding Newport are now dotted with
tents and every cottage is tilled with par
ties who have gone hither to escnpe ths h it
summer months aud enjoy a fe.v days rest
at the sea side. Not only are there
many campers near Newport, but at Nye
creek there are some two buudred camped
and as far as Big creek many are living
in temporary homes ot canvas, and still the
trains are loaded every day with pleasure
seekers wending their way to partake of
the enjoyments of a camp life. The great
er part of the day is spent in fishing, boat
ing, bathing and walking on the beach, and
of evenings several parties, numbering from
100 to 200 in each party proceed up the
beach to where there is an abundance of
driftwood, build a largo log fire and play
games or sing as the fancy dictates. These
gatherings are much enjoyed by all and are
in every sense a social success. Here yon
meet your neighbor campers and become ac
quainted and all join in to help each other
have a pleasant time. A candy pulling is
given about twice each week by some one
of the camps and all aje invited to be pres
ent; of course they do not need a second or
pressing invitation to attend and wheu a
large kettle of candy is taken from the fire
aud the parties present commence to pull
it, the person who would not forget fo r a
time all cares and join m the sport, is cer
tainly not human. A very popular game a
Nye creek is "blackman" and ''blind man's
buff," and the old folks seem to forget their
age for a time and join the younger ones in
the games. At Big creek there is as fine a
place for camping as can be found in the
state and it will no doubt become very pop
ular in the fnture. There is not much
game in the immediate vicinity, bat as for
fishing Yaquina bay has no equal; large
flounders, kelp fish and many other kind
can be readily caught, and at low tide rock
oysters can be had by the bucketful by
digging them. It would seem as if the
supply would be exhausted as there are
many hundreds of pounds taken from the
reefs daily by the campers and also by the
Indians who haul them to the reservation
and sell them, but there seems to be as
many "as when they first begun." In all,
Yaquina Bay is the place to spend your
vacation if you want a good time.
V f
AN IMPORTANT BILL.
the Royal baking powder condemned in
th0 new york legislature.
Last Monday Mr. Kelly introduced the
following bill in the assembly. A careful
reading of it will show that it is a very im
portant one.
An Act to prevent the use of poisonous
and injurious ingredients itt baking powders,
Whereas, Baking Powders manufact
ured in this state, kuown as Va.e"ttOYAL"
alum and other Baking Powders are adver
tised for sale as absolutely pure; and,
Whereas, Official examination show
tbem to contain ammonia and other injuri
ous ingredients; therefore The People of
the State of New York, represented in
Senate and Assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1. Every can or package of bak
iug powder conl aiding Ammonia offered for
sale in this State shall have a conspicuous
label thereon with the words"Contains Am
monia" printed thereon in plain type, not
smaller than great primer and any person
who shall sell, or have offer for sale, any
such can or package of baking powder with
out such labs thereon, shall be guiity of
misdemeanor.
Section 2. This act shall take effect
July 1, 1891. New York Press.
Sells Brothers' Circus. One of
the largest and best shows now in ex
istence has come and gone. The
morning was cloudy and threatened
rain, which, perhaps, kept many from
coming from a distance who otherwise
would have attended, and the fact
that this is the season when the farmer
is busy in the harvest field, accounts
in part at least for the small attend
ance at their performances, as their
large tent was not one-fourth filled at
either the afternoon or evening perfor
mance. The street parade which took
place at about 10:30 a. m.f was one of
the finest processions that has ever
passed through our streets, but the
crowds ; that usually gather here
on circus day to witness the parade
were not as large on this occasion ai
heretofore. The show, and especially
the circus, was a first-class affair, and
we fcel safe in saying that none who
attended regret having done so. The
large corpse of employes were unusual
ly quiet and no disturbance was cre
ated by them during their stay. The
menagrie was not as large as that of
some shows, but was as good as is
seen this far West.
Republican Oats. Last year we
received a sample of oats from a farm
er living in the Big Bund country
in Washington, who was a former
resident of this county. He had culti
vated the grain and found the yield so
large that he wished to introduce the
specie in this section. We did not
know the name of the oats and took
the liberty to call them Republican
oats. The sample .sent us was given
to various farmers in this vicinity for
trial, among whom was Mr. jHarring
ton, who resides one mile west of this
city. The portion received by Mr.
Harrington was about three ounces
from which he raised 16 pounds of
oats, the straw of which was about
six feet tall. This grain seems to be
adapted to our soil and climate and
yields about twice as heavy as the or
dinary oats.

ful one.
DECIDEDLY tfFFV
Berrf.on covmfy fof advertising a' de
linquent tax list made" up front an ab
stract ot tle records, wbich the' county
refused to pay for, and riever assessed
even by the sheriff. Ja order to- get a
receipt from the sheriff it is necessary
to iay him the tax due, 6i cents eost
and 50 cents a line for adverfising.
As the sale is set in nonpareil this itf
nearly $6 afj inch, which is an imposi
tion on the face of it. tTfeh'nquenf ta
lists are all right; but the cfiunty courf
of Benton" county ought to be ashamed
o.f the manner in which the one is be
ing run there, Albany Democrat.-
The Democrat is decidedly off in ittf
assertions iri the above item. It prob
ably received its information from some?
kicker who has hetetofore succeeded!
in dodging his taxts and the assessor"
and his property was brought in ort
the assessment roll by new abstract of
records furnished the county by Mark
lsy & Dunston, and who was compelled
to pay the regular costs attached to af
property which is allowed to become dew
linquent. In the first place the asser
tion that the abstracts of records re
ferred to has not been paid for is fulse.
Wii rants were draWfl for the payment
of the work amounting to over $7000
as soon as the contract was completed.
In the second place the property adver-r
tised in the delinquent list went through
the regular .order of assessment pro-
vided for by law, and the property
owner had ample opportunity to savef
the costs of advertising hard he not triecfc
to dodge paying his taxes altogether
As to advertising the delinquent list
the county court has nothing to be?
ashamed of as that matter is provided?
for by law and fs entirely in the hand
of the sheriff. The ptopei ty owner re
ferred to has no one to blame but him-"
self. It serves him right, and should
le a lesson to him in the future to pa
his taxes honestly and not try to dodger
them, then he will not have to pay
several times the amount of taxes a
costs. It may be in some cases a man
is excusable for allowing taxes to be
come delinquent, but as a rule it is the
result of neglect and carelessness, of an?
attempt to dodge them altogether.
