Albany Democrat:' It is claimed for the RccU'-llarlioiir car, now at the dc Ht that it is the oldest sloccr in the r. S,, and was the car in which Presi dent Lincoln was taken home after being shot, i'his sounds rather lishy. The Baker City Democrat's Sparta cor respondent -lay that tint report that the lossot stock owned by ltcul & lirtoolv, on Suake River was very largn is incorrect. Hay bocimmg vry short the princuml part was driven to llrowulee nnd not a bead had been lost. In L(;,e Valley the loss of stock has been less than a half ol onn tier cent., and stock ot all kinds is in a bitter condition than ever before. Charles Olds, or "Saudv" Olds, ua he w as best know, who shot Km il Weber, the boss Rambler, to death on Third and Alder streets in Portland, one bright morning three years ago, is a free man. The term of oiie year, shortened on account of good be- huvior, which Canity got (or manslaughter, expired this morning. Olds got as near to the gallows as any man who ever went un hung. Lebanon Advance: 1 1 was rumored on the streets this week that our city was visited a few days ago by tne no torious Jlaiuioti, who was connected with the attempt to rob the hank here two or three years ago. Thev say t hat safe crackers never cease to look with regret upon the safe thev failed to crack. Possibly this brought hack the. party mimed. Lebanon has hocn hiving a siege with the license question, says Iho Albany Dem ocrat. Under the old ordinance a petition signed by tne citi.ens ol tne city, contain ing more names than any remonstrauce waa necessary. It was ascertained that tho re- moustrauco for a license be mg applied tor would be decidedly in tho majoiity, and Lebanon would be without a saloon. The city counoil gave a Hank movement Tuesday night by repealing the ordinance so far as the petition was concerned so that it is on ly to apply to tho council wit buu I a peti tion. As it is a license council this will result in the continuation of the saloons, Theromonslrators, it is said, will contest the action of tho council. Intense feeling prevails over the matter. Commencing on Monday next it will be imoossilile to buv salmon or anv other kind of tlsh until the Kith of April. The new law is exceedingly stringent, and makes the dealers and even the transportation companies lia ble to tine tor having them in the iios- session, even if brought from outside points, 1 he only exception mane is to the cold storage eouiiiiiuics of Port land, but even they have to lie In spected by the commissioners to ascer tain the exact amount 1 1 icy nave on hand now. The law applies not only to this state, but to Washington also. State Fish Commissioner Myers says that the output of salmon 'from the Clackamas was almut l,xou,HUO, w hich Is very light eoninareil wilh last year s amount of la-twecn 5,H)(l,um and 0,K)U, 000.

Atorin. 1 Centralia, Washington, is at present the center of a mining excitement that bids fair to emml that of any of the noted mining camps of California, jt oiorndo or .Nevada, in their inosi I imlniv davs. The new mining district is known us Ranicr, and the camp is situated on a stream which has iseti ' christened Mineral creek. Already sonic sixty claims have liccn taken up, thoueh it'is oulv within a short time that the discovcrv of minerals was made know n. '1 he ore is lead ami silver with traces of gold, and the lode iis a verv extensive one, w hich assays -.in I.. i.....t i -n'i..i'..ii.i IWJ 't ,1111, ill ..iilll p l .in,. in'silvcr, la'lng said to lie ninety feet in width. The Hud was made last August by two miners, named Davis and Kvaiis. These men had la-en prospecting in the spuix of the Cascades for several months and were following up Mineral creek when they made their Hud. Thev continued their search, ami it was not until they had made some half do.cu locations that they brought in word ami placed their locations on record at the county scat. At first they refused to ill'vulge the exact locality of these mines, and owing to' the almost Inaccessible nature of the country, it was some time la'fore any others 'discovered the mineral ladt. but since then numerous trails have Ishmi cut through the tiiuler and n number of other claims linve larli staked out. A few days since Charles Erickson. vice-president of the First National bank, returned from the mines, bring ing with hiiiia number of line sccl mens. He pronounces the entire country along the forks of Mineral creek to be rich in valuable minerals, which only needs to become known to cause the most intense mining excite ment. THEY WORK TIN UOUSF.TS. How Saloon Waiter F.VRtled a Sun day Liquor Law. M. .1. Fierris, of San Francisco, told of a peculiar method by which a liquor Icalcrot .Montreal evaded the Miiuiay closing law of that country. "1 hu- M'tti'd lo stop in Montreal over Miiuiay a few weeks ago," he said. '"In the l- ternoon 1 strolled down one or the main streets of the town, and noticed a commotion in lront ot a saioon. l'Mn inquiry I found that it police man hud broken into the place, and had captured several connected with the concern in the act of selling liquor. The sale was conducted in a peculiar wav. The attendants nil wore tin cor sets which were tilled with whisky, and to these small reservoirs a rubber tula' was attached. When all the eon- diiions were lavoiiuue tne auentiaiii would hand his customer the end of the hose, from which a drink of whis ky would lie obtained. When the po li'ccinan broke Into the place he found one of the attendants, with his coat un buttoned, and in this way the tin cor set was revealed." Evidently a "Sucker." J A. Ellzer, a business man of Ogden, Arkansas, has written County Cleik Wal ker, concerning a well known fraudras fol lows: "Dkab Sin: I was directed by the ofll cors of the State of Washington to corres pond with the oflloials of your county con cerning one Chas. P. Reed, who was in the custody of your county awaiting trial for an olluuse committed in your state. Has be ever beeu tried Was he the agent of the Michigan & Maine Lumber and Mill ing Co? Where is the company's post of tiue? Said company was incorporated by the Stale of Washluglon. "P. 8. Said Reed by misrepresentation of facts and false pretenses has robbed me of over 'JIK." Mr. Ellzer has soveral sympathizers in Eugene, who were robbed by the same in dividual, but it is not likely they could give him any information concerning the post office address of the company. I'ninpitie and Melissa. Pendleton East Oregonian. Our worthy oonnty clerk and county judge unknowingly aided and assisted a species of immorality aud bigamy in our midst lately. Umapine, an Indian brave, and Melixsa, a buxom squaw, with tbe aid of au interpreter, secured a marriage li ce me from the olerk, and "Cap." to all in tents aud purposes joined them la holy wedlock iu Boston man's most approved style. It has since been learned that Umapine has two or three helpmeets at his reserva tion chateau, aud that Melissa has aUo k lord and master living around bere to whom she was wedded by a clergyman. It is supposed that according to Indian logic, divorces were unnecessary to further their late marriage, provided it was done up in shape by the High Tyee of the County Bkookmu Honse (court bouse). Melissa always had a pining lor Umapine, anyhow. We hope you-may-pine no Ion ger, dusky maiden. Letter Lint. February 25, 1802. Allatrlf.

A Dastardly Deed. Tha Oregon City Enterprise sayu that Richard Wright, a Macksburg farmer, bad nineteen bead of fat sheep lhat be was about to take to market last week, In fact he bad sent for tbe dealers to buy tha sul mats and the day before hi was expected, Mr. Wright went to tbe pasture where tbe abeep were confined to look at them and sea that they wen all right. He then found that ten of the sheep bad been reoently killed and upon olose examination it was discovered that they had been shot with rifle He got a neighbor, I'hil Graves, to sssist him in examining the carcasses and in each case tbe sheep was found to be shot. Tbe next morning Mr. Wright repaired to the spot to save the pelts when he discov ered tbe skins had all been taken. A day or two later Mr Graves found thrceof his sheep slain ai Mr. Wright's bad been. The work must bava been deliberately done, by some miscreant who was suflluieutly familiar with the premises to escape detection. Camp Creek Items. Feb. 20, 1892. Our exhibition waa a success.
