True croup never appears without a warning. The first symp tom is hoarseness ; then the child appears to have taken a cold or a cold may have accom panied the hoarseness from the start After that a peculiar rough cough is developed, which is followed by the croup. The time to act is when the child first becomes hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will prevent the attack. Even after a rough cough has appeared the disease may be pre vented by using this remedy as directed. It has never been known to fail. 50 cent and SI bottles for sale by.T.

Wm, the HARBOR I MPROVEMEKTSr- The following from the Oregon!! will be of interest to oar citizens i Captain Symons, United States en . a a gineers, lias returned lrom a visit ta Yaquina bay. The principal object of bis journey was to inspect two quarries that are being opened there, and also to ascertain the possibility and prac ticability of procuring rock for the jet ties along the line of the railroad and shipping it on the cars to deep water. The great trouble with the quarries along the river is the vast amount of debris left after taking out the rock wanted, and the difficult in disposing of it There are some good quarries along the railroad but as to whether they can be utilized or not, of course depends upon the freight rates the rail' road company can make. Work will be kept np all winter on the jetties at Yaquina. Rock is now being dumped on the north jettj, but in a few days the force will be transferred to the south jetty, and it will be built np to high-water mark and finally completed, Bridge Washed Awat. The Oregonian railroad bridge across the Calapooia at RrAwnsville was washed out Tuesday. The stream rose rapidly, and the big structure, which was undergoing repairs, was resting upon false work, which gave way before the angry current. It will be rebuilt at once. The damage was considerable. Election or Officers. The following persons were elected officers for the ensu ing year, of Ferguson Chapter No. 5, R. A. M.,last Wednesday evening: M.

Joe Goggin, the man arrest ed at Albany last week by Sheriff Noland on suspicion of being the murderer of young Ewing at Cottage Grove, was released and has returned to Albany.

Hia talk tended to show that he knew a good deal about the matter. Eugene Register. CloVeiiCry JorJHttifsjCstttoib. Republican League. Republican clubs of the state convened at Portland on last Wednesday pursuant to a resolution of tbe executive committee of the state republican league.

Bennie Schloupe accidentally shot him self in the arm while hunting near To ledo last week. Bennie was in a boat, and in some manner the hammer of the gun caught on a timber of the ves- . seh discharging the contents of one barrel, which entered the inside of the left arm, shattering it in a horrifying manner. On reaching home the boy's injuries were attended to but it was soon discovered that the flow of blood could not .be stopped. Acting upon the last hopes the saddened father per' mitled the arm of the sufferer to be amputated. But the blood had flown too freely and too long, and the boy's . life succumbed to tbe natural conse quences. Mis parents are almost dis tracted with grief. His remains were buried in Toledo cemetery. ' For the Holidays. Ed. Greffos always keeps apace with the times in the jewelry business, for he knows just what it takes to auit ths pnblie gener ally.
