In ft correspondence to th Daily Oregonian Mr. T. 0. Judkins has the following to say about former citizens of Lann county: Mr. II. II. Gilfry paid Uregon a long visit the past Summer, and there fore was (-cabled to personally rendor an accunt if himself to his numerous friends. He still holds the responsible position' of Legislative Clerk of the SenoU-.' With mi agreeable and lucra- tyve position, a pleasant home, a loving . vvfpfand , two ilirining little daugh ' X '''r? ,l" ttAja tlaya and weeks of liffl very liiijj . ones. The colloquial adage that contentment prouduces ro tundity seems ii) find further proof in Mr, Gilfry's case. His avoirdupois is steadily increasing. Outside of office hours Mr Gilfry can he found at No. 1333 N street, N. W.,. where he and Mrs. Gilfry are always "at home" to OiVLOiimns. , Mr. J. L. Wortrnan, or "Jake," as I, in common with his other schoolmates, used to call him, can he found at the Army Medical Museum, th old FordV theatre where President Lincoln met his fatal shot. Mr. Wortrnan is anato mist of the surgeon general's office, United States army. As tho va'ue and scope of the army medical museum appear to lie not generally known, I have it in my mind soon to devote a letter to this subject, at which time I may refer more specifically to Mr. Wortnin's work. Jake is an enthusi astic scientist, and has already reached an enviable position. He has lately been elected to a memWship in the Washington Philosophical Society, his membetship address lining on the sub ject, "Philosophical Significance of the Milk Dentition." In a book now in course of publication he has a lengthy paper en "Comparative 'Anatomy of the TVctli. Another distinction ac copied hill's worthy of record, that he hus. Iieen tfivited to be one of the JuCtunTS nt t)i Ntimiariwuii during the Spring lecture dour'so, He has not yet decided on a suhject, but it will doubtless be "The Development of the Horse," a subject that will brin Oregon injo considerable notice, as it furnishes many tine geological speci mens of the (lilfereiit stages in the de velopment of this n.iUe animal. L. II. Wheeler1, a young attorney of Portland, reached Washington a few days ngo. The time nf his stay is un determined, he having come partly on business and partly on pleasure. The correspondent, also gives Joa quin Miller a good notice, pnd says he is accumulating money. .1 Row Ovir a Salt. Quite h sensation was created at At lanta, Ga., the other day by the arrest of two of the most prominent and wealthy merchants of that city, and their subsequent release on a bond of $1 0,000 each to keep the peace. They were Green Dodd and Puul Jones. Since the prohibition election these two gentlemen have been ofe daggers' ends, Dodd having been a very conspic uous prohibition leader, and Jones prominent on the other side, Dodd has a notorious Muck mule which bites everything and evyrhody that gives hin a chance, The other day this mule was feeding in front of the store, being hitched to a dray near the side wal . Jones was passing at the time, and the animal mude a dire at hi oh This incensed Jones, and- he walked into Dodd's store. ' One, oj Dodd's clerks saw him comiiigj.and he handed his employer a pistol. Jones walked to Dodd and sbid, "If you don't take that damn mule away I'll cut his throat." Dodd said that Jones had a penknife, and threatened to cut his throat instead of tlw mule's. Do, i levelled his pistol on- Jones, and tol him if he moved a step further he would fire. Jones withdrew, being fol lowed by Dodd, who- still kept him undercover. Jones went to his store and soon reappeared with a double- w,.A 'a-irtmti and atnrtpl -nvftrd ru,l'. ut,. tn1i.mnn inrerfe ! and both were arrested and put u id r bonds.

As there are many Lane county residents in this locality and subscrib ers to the Gcard, I will try to tell you about some of them, thoir welfare and the present outlook for Eastern Ore gon in general. Up to this dato the weather has been that of a bright spring, with the exception of a layer of snow which fell on ths eighth and ninth to a depth of fivo inches. This snow, the only one this svason, covered the beautiful hills and prairies for Sfjven days, when it disappeared, leav ing all ffrcen-onfo itfore,.' Uroju is -tinpj and stock is looking well",' and play ing as if it wore Juno weather. The fall sown grain is looking well and fine and indications are very flat tering for a good crop next year. This part of Eastern Oregon is pre eminently going to be a rich farming country. Last season wheat that was sown on raw prairie land yielded as high as forty bushels to the acre, and three times as much grain was threshed here last season as the year preceding, and there is not near so much crain in the country as a year ago. A great deal of the wheat raised this last sea son has been converted into Hour. Our nearest shipping point is Arlington, (formerly Alkali) a distance of fifty two miles from this placo. Wheat is worth there about fifty three cents per bushel. At these figures tho reader car. see that it would not be profitable to raise wheat and haul it the above distance and sell it at tho aforesaid price. Hut as it is now, Arlington is the place where mos of the peoplo get their groceries, and by going there they can haul a load of grain, and out of the proceeds buy their supplies. As I said, this will make a good farming country, provided there was a railroad or some other means of transportation to carry the articles which the farmer can dispose of. Un trrl-sucW-be the case our country , will remain undeveloped, and the average of the fanners, I mean those who de pend Bolely on farming for a livelihood, will prove a failure . financially rathor than a , success. Slock raising is the sure business for this country, and the only business that a man can realize anything from in this country for a number of years. The location of the county seat of our county is much talked of at pres ent, At the formation of the county, Arlington was chosen as a temporary location. Arlington, is at one end of the county, and while we admit that it is our shipping point where we get our Bupplies at present, it is not a suitable place for the county seat. There are many aspiring places, among which I may name Condon, Lone Rock, Arlington una" Fossil. Fossil, in my judgment, is the most suitable location, and is surrounded by tho largest number of our residentev There is hope of bxr getting the prize. There am many settlers who have located here from your part of Oregon which is known here as "Webfoot." Among the many who came from Lane county, and who are our neighbors here I will try to mention a few that may be of interest to many of your readers in "Webfoot." Mr. Walter Rhineliart a very promising young man, perhaprmore so when he was single than now, for then he wa considerable of a flirt, and "took . well" among the girl Single life did not suit, so he resolved to make it even. He and his wife are living in quiet and comfort in a neat little cabin on his pre-emption of ICOacresj one and a half miles from Mayrillc, Webb Edwards is the same here as in your vjlley, always up and around, kl is sure to grasp tho firt swallow as It soars away to the blue sky. He has- purchased 80 acres of land for the sum of .SSCO. This, with his timber culture and homestead, makes- him a complete farm. He is going into the cattiu and horse .business. already altout fifty head of jj jOCl gentle ; cattle and fifteen good mam Ho will i )e a rich man in a few yeais.

Mr. T. hss i veralj ' TJCGF-NE CITY, OREGON- I .,..! f - I . . i can ie an uoes considerable in the dairy business in the spring and summer. Ho is a success in the mer cantile business, and is continually enlarging his stock of goods. Gainey Matthews is up and coming, and U bound to win, no matter whew he is. He is lively and full of fun, and friendly to all and everyone a friend to him. He is not going to follow the ' plow to gain wealth, but will devoto his energy to cattle ' rdhing. ' His head is level you may be s'ure, and success will crown his efforts. Silas Keeney is the same that he was ten years ago, nevjjr. in a hurry, and I iaay'eWrffflrVjiiiid, though lie ti not get Ins potatoes dug until the beau tiful snow had covered the vines. He is engaged in the sheep business, bat does not do any of the herding himself, so I do not mean to say that he in a "sheep herder." Jo!Hf'M(!CcLLOUOH. There is a man in Nevada named Angola Cardolia who claims to be the strongest man in the world. He is an Italian, ng-d 38, and stands fivo foet ' ten inches, weighing 138 pounds. Hie strength was born with him, for he had no athletic training. He diflera from other men chiefly in the osseous struct ure. Although not of unusual size, hi spinal column is much beyond the usual width, and his hones and joints are made on a similar large and gener " ous scale. He has lifted a man of 200 pounds with i he middle finger of his j right hand. The man stood with one i foot on the floor, his arms outstretched, his hands grasped by two persons' to balance his body, Cardeha then stoop- ed and placid the middle finger of his right hand under the man's foot, and with scarcely" any perceptible effort ' raised him to the hiuht of four feet and deposited him on a table near at hand Once two powerful men waylaid Car- deiia with intent to thrash him, but h seized one in each hind and hammered! ' tlio.ii together until hf was nearly ' knocked out of them. His Strength is inherited, for he says his. father ;wai more powerful than himselfBoston Post.
