Will C King, I O O T, Grand Lecturer for this State, lectured on Tuesday and Wednes day of this week at the church, on tetnjwrance. He is a man of noble physique and a good Ulker, and seemingly an earnest worker in the temperance cause. The audience was large and enthusiastic. Wednesday a railroad carpenter, working on ,.110 ib : the railroad bridge cctween Sere and Harris ,.2.)2 67 bun.', came tn town to cet a check of siitv. four dollars and fifty cents cashed. His fore man requested him to bring his overcoat, that he expected on the south hound train, back with him. After arriving in town he got crazy drunk, and going over to the depot, he saw a drummer's overcoat and nothing would do but that It was his boss', and he must have it. After bothering the boys a long time, they slipped the coat a'vay from him and told him that one of the boys had taken it down to thepostoffice, so lie went down there and seising the first coat he saw, marched off for the bridge with it Before he got far, he was arretted and put in the calaboose, lu the meantime he gave his cheek to some one nn the train; he don't know who. Had he been a temperance man, bo mii'ht be twenty-two or tweuty three dollars better off. Certain parties residing near here, are seriously thinking of git ing the legal profess ion something big or costly to da It seems that one of the said party hired a pasture for sheep of the other some monthe ago, and that the other had asked said owner several times for the money due on the pasturage, so when the party owning the sheep went to the State Fair, the other party, fearing that he would never get pay for the posture, embraced the opportunity, with the advice of a lawyer, during said absence of owner, to drive away some sixty of the sheep to another pasture. After a lapse of three or four weeks time, party number one got wind of wh.t had been done and went and drove these sixty sheep back. Prosecutions have been made even to a third party. Things are somewhat mixed up and parties concerned very angry. The school directors of this place have pur chased a complete set of Camp's Outline Maps for the school Thy deserve credit for this is a step in the right direction.

The late rains have started the farmer to work; they no louger hava time to parley over the probabilities of United States Sena tor, or speculate upon how nuich Johu Long got for his vote for Mitchell.

Edito Grata 11i Lane County Agri cultural Fair is over, and although with the frequent rainy days end nlhta for six days, and the muddy roads to contend with, It was by no moans s failure. Had the weather been fine previous and during the fair, my opinion 1 It would have been deel Jedly a success. On the first day the attendance was small and very little business done on account of the rain, but on the next morning the clouds broke away and the rush about the pavillwn was much larger than I had expected in so short a time, the crowd probably nuuiWing between th.-ee and four hundred, mostly farmer ind their wives. The eutcringof stock nnd produce then began In earntt for nearly three hours; after that the parade of all the stock entered for premiums coinmen-ed, and during the parade and Judging of tli stock, better order could not have prevailed; every one semed to enjoy it, audeiuder all the conflicting circumstances, the showing of horses was what I consider tfood, considering that only a few persons in Lane county have taken much interest In the production of improved stock.
