Mr. Ruvder, who earn down from the Calapooisand Blue Itiver mines Monday, Kives a very glowing report ol these niiuiug camp. Mr. Snyder u a practical axuyer and nan made more tbau a hundred assay ol claims in these district, aud he gives it as bis candid opinion that Dear the headwaters ot tbe Lalapooia win be (be greatest mining camp on the Pacific coast. I J is judgment is based on data wbioh is both souud and con elusive. He located eieht or ten claims, - only after thorough inspection for be never locates a claim bapnazard and will build a bonne and routinue work through the winter. lieiug familiar with every mining camp of any note, from Hie famous Treadwell mine of Muska to the Tombstone mines of Arizona, bit judgment is entitled to soma weight. There are more men in these camps to-day than bave ever beeu seen at any time since their history began. It is also a notable fact that for the most part the men are practical miners representing considerable capital, and their object can be easily divined, as men of this stamp do not nsually spend their money in tbe vain hope of beiug prof ited b tlie dreams of visionaries. The tunnel on tbe Poorwau has been run, at lust accounts, ltiO feet, at which point a neb pay cbiumey has been struck, aud tbe directum of tbe C. aud B. R. M. aud M. Co. lmve received instructions from tbe superin tendent to sell no more stock. Tbe owners of the Lucky Boy mine are working several mm on their claim, which promises well lrom Ibe time it was first discovered four years ago.

Ashton, obstetrician, at tbe institu tion October IS, aud tbe case will go ou record as a remarkable incident in suieuce. I lis (iii i ieiit was a youuj coiored woman of robust health. Both tbe child aud tbe mother are expected to recover. Dr. Ash tun finished the operation iu the remarka bly short time of iweuty-one minutes and thirty seconds.

BJELDSNIM & PSDEBSON. University k kstore The disposition ot tbe sugar schedule made by the present tat ill' bill illustrates fully the Republican purpose in passing such a law. ltaw sugar is placed on the free list, but tbe duty is retained on the higher grades of lenned sugar. Tbis meaus tbat tbe sugar plauter is to lose the protec tion he formerly eujoyed, and tbat the con sumer of sugar is to derive no benefit from the abolition of tbe duty. The benefit all goes to the refiners They.will bave cheap raw material and protection on tbe product of their industry. That sort of an arrange ment is truly Republican. It is reported that Quay has been using some of the fat he fried oot of tbe rich Re publicans for national purposes to grease the Delamater machine in Pennsylvania, aud that he and Clarkson have fallen out in oonsequenoe. It is an illustration of the adage that it takes a thief to catch a thief. Foa Silc. -Two cottage and three lota within three block of the Geary school house. Apply to W. Schumat alBeltinan't store.
