When we consider the magnitude of their business, the appalling destruction of property at the most unfortunate season of the year, we doubt if the annals of history furnish a case of such rapid recuperation. Such energy deserves success. Fnilin; Flits. C. D. Failing, a sleek and rather miidsnnie telegraph operator, and who has been trainmaster of the O. it C. Railway since its opening day, has made a record for himself altogether at variance) from whit might have been expected ly his friends. He was a faithful, careful man and won the es teem of companions and confidence of the company. Ifn married ft Miss Barrett, who had some valuable prop- erty and ready money, and from that time Failing turned his attention tow. ard money getting. He was careful and shrewd in financial nintters and did not get caught on transoontinental. lie hud a salary of about 8150 a month, while the income of his wife ns more than double that amount. He handled the coin and in couYse of time accumulated something like 820 0 )0, two thirds of which belonged fo his wife. It is said that he hncamn infatuated with a certain pretf grass widow telegraph operator of SmJthern Oregon, but we don't believe it. A long personal acquaintance with him convince us that money is Ms lady love. He has always hivf fll desire to accumulate every' dollar airtf cfnt posni. ble, and whereter he is, would he found pursuing (lie same phantom. He told his wife our the day of his depart ure, 8ome three weeks ago, that he didn't think she would ever see him again, and from' subsequent circum stances it appears- thut he told the truth. The deserted1 woman has still an aiiundancA of coin and is entirely in dependent Sifting Senator Jones of Nevada says he in tends to make a speech in tho Senate on his favorite theme of finance. He adds: "f shall go further in my dec larations than any economist or writer has-yid dafed to go. I shaft hold and shall prove that all that is required in money is limitation of qwlity and culculablenes. It is all nonsense to to talk about cold being the only avail able standard. Your dry goods mer chants would think it a strange law that would compel them to use an ivory yard:stfck. They would want Co know what ivory had to dy with length1. The gold hunifrug is just a great." Eager miners delving in the gold fiolds of New South Wales years ago discovered fin ores, but in the search for the yellow metal t lie baser metal wos neglected1. The mistake, however, has letn discoverer, and-' New South Wales has stepped try the front as the chief source of the world's tin supply Thirty-five million dollars' worth of the: ore was exported last yrarf J Sat Broxh Sty lr. In order to show our Eastern read- ing, which occurred on Saturday last in Weatherhy precinct, Grant rJoUnty: A. J. Weatherby, a Justice of the Peace, was preparing to take the train for Baker City, when a lady and gen tleman dashed up in front of the rest' der.ee, the latter inquiring: 'Is this Mr. Weatherhy 1" "What is left of him," answered the J. P. "Well, we want to get marriel." "All right, get down and come in." "Ifo, we haven't time. Tje the knot right here." " , . ' The J. P. wished to invite his family out ns witnesses, but the gentleman on the horse desired to proceed with the ceremony without further delay, and submitted his license, which was found to ho correct. Mr, Weatherby called upon some men who wore in an out building to act as witnesses, and the couple clasped hands as they sat in their saddles, and after the usual cere mony were declared man and wife. The fee was paid, and the couple de parted in time for Mr. Weatherhy to catch the train. Oregon', Saint. Hen. Owens, who has received so much gratuitous attention from the newspapers of Oregon on account of his swamp land transaction's in one of the most hospitable and kind-hearted men in the Statet He' has a keen sense of (he huitroroUs. He is known at Eugeife as Saint Owens, and calls his hoitn near town "Saints' Rest." A the "Swamp Angel," the name he is known by to some, is not averse to an oceasirmal game of poker, it is very elear that lie is at U-sst not far off from xaintship. A friend calliffg on him at Saint's Rest nsked him how he was getting along. The saint assumed a solemn posture, and said, while making a wave-like motion with the palm of the hand up and down before his breast, "Isot a wavp, not a wave, not a wave of trouble, rolls across my peaceful breast." Saint Owens is one of the characters of Oregon. Ex. Tire editor of an Arkarfsatr news, pupe? published at W'iley's' cove sent the following to the editor of the North American Review: "My dear si ti Ever sin'CH my paper has been started, I have oflF ami on copied1 from your ptrhlfcationv hut you! have never copied a line from m'y ptfper, the Rooster.

When a man treats mo well, I treat him well, and now, sir, I desire to say that I am not going to copy any thing more from you. I don't pro pose to odvertiso your magazine for nothing. I will, however, if you copy the inclosed joko on our coun ty jude. Mind, I don't urge you, but don't hesitate to ray that if you fail, all is over with us. Arkansaw Traveler. The Rell Telephone company is one 0 the grandest monopolies in thecoun try. During the last six years it has had a growth lieyond all parallel!.. The original investors in Bell Telephone stock paid from $20 to 40 a share. Since then the stock has been increased or "wrtered'1 seven times, and the shares are worth $1 40 each, so that an original holder has now oight shares for every one that he at first held, and what paid 30 for is uow worth $1200.

Gee Fee, an Empije City Chinaman is evidently satisfied in his own mind! as to the cause of the lato Chinese' rackets. He was on the steamboat Comet one day last week, and was reading a Chinese newspaper. A pas- senger noticing that he seemed to be very much displeased at what he was roadinn. said? "What's the news.'
