After all, there is a fair prospect that Sam Brown may be present at bis own hanging on tbe Slst iustant, as adver tised. Geo. TV. Woodruff of Greys Harbor is visiting his relatives and friends in Coles Valley and old acquaintences in the city today. The city was all agog this morning over a rumor that Sam G.

Woodruff 6f Coles Valley re turned yesterday from Palo use county, Wash., and is in the city today. He came via. Portland and reports good sleighing in that city, and pleasure seek ers are enjoying themselves hugely. During her absence, thieves entered ths bouse of Mrs. Jane White, in Ash land, last Saturday, and looted the draw ers, chests and trunks. The thieves had evidently slept in the bouse as one' of the beds had been used. Mrs. White has been visiting relatives near Rock Point since December 1 last. Wm. Laugh, who has a mining claim on Myrtle Creek, has taken from his mine specimens of rich ore which he is exhibiting to his neighbors here. The rock carries gold, silver and copper com bined. " Mr. Laugh thinks he has struck it and as consequence steps high. If the quantity and quality of his find is as extensive as lie represents, be can with truth cry out "Eureka"' with exultation A very extensive slide has occurred at the weit end of tunnel on the S. P. railroad in Cow Creek canyon, which has delayed the trains till some time to morrow. Tbe overland trains last night had to make a transfer at tbe slide, causing quite a delay.

William, the house decorator, left here this morning, accompanied by his wife, for their home at Salem, Mr. William having finished decorating J. W. Hamilton's house. The elide at south end of tunnel 2 in Cow Creek Canyon, still blocks the way. The slide is 110 feet long and was 25 feet deep. The great difficulty is, the slide continues to slide in as fast as the workmen slide it out, and it is now conceded that the workmen will not be able to clear .the track before Monday, if then. Passenger trains continue, however, and when they come to the elide, passengers, their lwggage and the mails are transferredand the train re turns. So travel and mail are but elightly delayed. Thureday evening the report cams to the city that Sam G. Brown, the escaped convict, had been seen a few miles north of Wilbur. Soon the city was all ablaze wMi excitement and in a fhort time the city was full of wild rumors as to where, and when and by whern he was seen. The story, how ever, had such a color of truth as to in duce the sheriff and a large posse of men to go to the scene ofliis reported where abouts. All day yesterday sunt all this forenoon knots of men were seen i?aUi- ered on the principal streets discussing and speculation upon the upshot of the "fiasco" tho cscapo, recapture and n hanging bee tho 31st. Our reporter has been plied with a thousand and one questions concerning the matter, as if they thought him a clairvoyunt ablo to see through mountains, peer into barns, caves and out houses, under straw stacks or into cellars a thousand milesVwny. Brown is reported to have been spoken to. Ho is said to have a Winchester ritto and a brace of pistols upon him, and that ho has declared ho will never be taken alive. While all this may bo true wo will not vouch for it it is too much like Baron Mun chausen tales. SUQAR PINE. Again wo famish a bit of news from Sugar Pine: And thief lime your humble scribe will be more careful in bis chirog- raphy, so that tho typo will not get names of persons and things changed, so that "Lige" will not become 'George,' "water" as "matter," "grub oak open ings" as "grub oak springs," or "long locked up" appear as "long talked cf." Laird & West's portable. saw mill will soon start up again and will, as ot yore, saw out "slathers" of boards, planks, and other bridge and building lumber. New-comer Davis of bright, clear-skyed Eastern Oregon, is occasionally seen strolling over the fields or winding through the foot hilts as if in search of accustomed sunshine. Notwithstanding that within the past season so many of our youths hare taken unto themselves a rib, there were enough of "young sprigs" to muster a sociable eujored at J. and E. F. Inman's resi dence a few evenings since. Friend B. F. Goodman of Flournoy Valley can be seen of a morning stand ing, and like Stephen of old, gazing into heaven. That's right Ben, ttndy the clouds before starting out to plow, for those clou da and fog banks are trcacber one this time of year. Although another girl is what was wanted and expected, yet friend George Matthews id slowly recovering from the shock of a recent newly arrived boy. M. Qcid- BUSINESS LOCLAS. J. T.
