Ten Days. James A. House was up
before the recorder Wednesday on the
ehanre of drunkenness. He made a
plea that he was overtaken by the
tempter, and after paying a portion of
the costs and agreeing to leave the
city, was lilierated. But Thursday he
was again up before Recorder Dorris on
a similar charge, and claimed that he
was sorry that he had "fullen by the
wayside." but it would not work a
second time, and he was sentenced to
aolier up on the streets for a term of
ten days.

The Kitflit Kind.
Mr. P. D. Gilbert lute of Marceline, Mo.,
has taken charge of Bunch k Willisms
interest in the "Pacific" Grocery Store, of
Fisber, Bunch k Co.
We clip the following from the Marceline
Mirror, which needs no addition) com
mendation: "Bound for the Slope."
"P. D. Gilbert, tbe best grocery cleik iu
Marceline, as well as one of the first, will
soon leave the city to accept a position
tendered bim by J. N. Bunch, of Eugeue,
Oregon. "Pete," as be is popularly known,
is one among a thousand, thoroughly honest
from the crown of his head to the sole of
his foot, and recognized generally as good
mun to tie too because of his well-known in
tegrity and unswerving fidelity. In addi
tion to these very important moral attributes
he is a combination of "bale-fellow-well-met,"
without indulging in any of the com
mon vices and irregularities which many
suppose to be a natural consequence when
this term is applied. Taking it all iu all,
Pete can hardly be improved upon as a thor
oughbred in bis line. Always friendly,
considering his employers' interests at more
important than his own ease or comfort, he
has always been considered a model em
ploye, a position wo venture to predict he
will not always occupy. His business
iustincts were bnught out in all their
brightness by Mr. Btiurh, for hoiu he
worked several years iu Marceline, aud it
should be with prido that Mr. Gilbert
accepts his former employer's fluttering
offer from half-way across the continent.
Tbat the combination of Bunch and Gilbert
will prove a finaucial success on tbe Pacific
coast goes without saying. The musses of
buyers hunt such people out and will trade
w ith them, whatever competitors may do to
divert trade. Success to Pete in his new
sphere aud may he soon bring his own
family and that of his principal bai-k to
Marceline where they will bit heartily wel
comed and made to feel at home in tbe
busiueas circle the) formerly ornameuted'"

Alpha Itema.
July Cth, 1891.
Most of tbe energetic farmers have their
bay iu the barns.
Mr. C. A. Potterf has been quite sick for
tbe past two week but is improving.
Alpha uow has mail on Tuesdays and
Saturdays of every week, which Is a boon
to this news loving vicinity.
Wn have lately organized a Sunday school
which is well attended, and which we hope
will continue to grow both in attendance
and iullueuce for good.
School iu the "Fern" school bouse bai
been in progress for three weeks. The at
tendance is small; but tbe interest mani
fested in tbe work is a joy to tbe teacher,
and enables ber to any with truthfulness,
"Blest me, this is pleasant teaching publio
school."
We would like to ask a certain young
gentleman If he Is still fond of catching
trout? We understand he enjoys tbe sport
so much that be speuds most of the night
dungliug a hook nud line. And usually bis
efforts are attended with great success. He
has been known to catch as many as eight
during one week.
The good people of Alpha celebrated the
"glorious fourth" by having a picnic,
which was a very pleasant affair. About
fifty were present, who enjoyed an inter
esting programme and partook of a bounti
ful dinner. After dinner the time was
spent iu visiting, playing games, swinging,
etc. Along with tbe excitement two young
ladies fell out of a swing, which frightened
the young gentleniau who was swinging
them, so badly, that it took him about two
miutitos and a half to collect his reasoning
faculties enough to help them np. About
fivo o'clock all gathered around the organ
and after singing some hymns, dispersed,
fueling that they had spent a pleasant day.
