Slie was kicked and other wise bruised. . The Washington fe Columbia River Railroad Co. have decided to increase its warehouse capacity at Dayton to provide for the enormous quantity of grain that is going into storage at that point. The spacious warehouses at thiit place are already nearly fi'led. A prisoner named Moore, confined for stealing money from a house at Long Creek, escaped recently from the Grant county jail, but was' recaptured after a chase into the mountains. A key to hi-i cell, which he had manu factured, was found in bis possession. The unknown parties who wrecked the unoccupied residence? of J. - V. Brown at Niagara, Linn county, one night last week with dynamite, .'have completed the job by blowing it to atoms. The trouble grew out. of Brown's jumping some of the settlers' land claims. Afiy person desiring to purchase a tract of land suitable for ..'farming pur. poses, fruit growing, or for the purpose of making a beautiful home . near city limits, should call on Conover & Kit son, of The Gazette, and learn par ticulars. A rare bargaiu that must be sold soon . In the future Portland policemen must not talk while on' duty. Not so vtry long ago Chief Hunt decided that the poliee department could serve the public better by not entering into long conversations on - the street on unofficial business while on duty, so he issued orders inhibiting this custom, which has prevailed from time immemorial. Green Richardson, of: Lane county, contributed tea dollars to the city exchequer Tuesday evening . for the privilege of stabbing a Corvallis young follow by the name of D. C. Rodgers.

She ' was lying in h woodshed, almost unable to move, and had had little or nothing to eat, no provisions having been left for her in Peo's house. Dumplings manu factured from flour arid water seem to have been her only diet. Peo left the place a week or so ago for. the ? Yakima country. As the old woman ' is his mother, his conduct is cnticif e i as un becoming his rank aud dignity. , . v Eugene Register: Several very sus picious looking characters have been seen about town of late, and. attempts have been made at various times - to enter houses. Thursday night some person attempted to enter the house of Mrs. N. K. Frazier, on the hill, and was no doubt intent upon plunder, But he undertbdk-'-to enter the win dow of the room where E. H.
