SATURDAY, : bECEMBERJ4l$75!
A man was recently found dead in Rhode Isl
and with three pairs of breeches on. There is
reason to believe that he succumbed at the end
of a determined struggle to prevent his wife
t.-ora wearing the brooches.
H. Gale, formerly editor of the Itoseburp
Ensign, is to start a paper at Canyon City next
spring nndor ths auspices of a joint stock company.-
W may look for a lively paper from
that camp and country.
Dr. tl. H. Davis has located in Scio. having

0 A. Brown and E. 0. Norton were the
lucky individuals at the raffle of Thanksgiving
night, for John F. Miller's fine trotting horse,
valued at $350. They are in a quandary as to
which would be the better course, to sell the
horse or bny a buggy. They both feel that
Dame Fortune is on their aide and will try their
luck aain.
Terrible Fright.
A couple of timid yonng ladies were terribly
frightened two evenings since by the appear
ance of a man going in the same direction
which they were traveling. They were breath
lessly rushing for noma haven of secnrify
when the pursuer's voice assured them he wag a
friend. Back streets and few podestria ns otten
bring about very ludicrous events.

A little incident occurred at the Ladies Fair
at the Opera House Tuesday lflght, which was
amusing to the listeners and instructive to one
of the parties to a conversation. A good look
ing gentleman engaged a beantit'nl youn lady
in conversation, under the shadow of the cur
tains of the "Art Gallery." Our reporter only
canght a few words, which fell from the lips of
the little girl and ran like this "Yon consume
too many cloves, my dearand I fear they have
an intoxicating influence on yonr brain." The
gentleman readjusted his cravat and went down
atreet to commune with nature.
We learn from a Victoria piper that last Sat
urday, about noon, a decit hand employed on
the steamer California, while in the lower hold
assisting in unloading the ship was struck on
the head by a boi cf apples which slipped from
the slings, and instantly killed. On examina
tion it was fonnd that his neck was broken by
the shock. The Superintendent of Police held
an inquest, and the jury rendered a verdiet that
death resulted from accident and added a rider
that the secfLd mate, who was working with
the men, shonld superintend iustead of actively
helping operations, so as to lessen the pmoabil
lty ot a recurrence ol tn ;h accidents.
Wreeh of the Sunbeam.
An extra Astorian of November 233,' gives
information that the drifting hull of a vessel
first seen from Cape Hancock Lighthouse on
the 20th, and which subsequently washed
ashore a few miles above that point, has been
ascertained to be that of the schooner Sunbeam
built at Coos Bay this year. She had made her
first veysge to Ban Francisco, with lumber, and
flailed from that port Xnvt -mhei 3d for Coos
Bay with a cargo of merchandise. Mie was
commanded by Captain Bennett, an txpuueed
seaman and good man. It is hardly prsihl
that anv on boajd were saved.
Tte Siew Telejreaph.
A dispatch from Mr. Platte Jiutr, Lee's En
campment (on the summit of the Blue Moun
tains), Nov. 2 1th, to the Evening Journal, says
"We pass here to-day. The other party are this
sifle of Baker City. We ought to meet at La
G'-ande by Dec. 1st." Should the meeting be
efictad, the line will be ready for thorough
communication, and Portland will then have
two lines of telegraph to connect with Califor
nia and the East, and connection also with
Union and Baker c unties and Southern Idaho.

Livery Stable Hurucd -Thirteen Haines
In Hi- i'lamea.
Afire broke ont tbCH,t2 o'clock Thursday
morning in Marshall's livery stable at Albany
and although the Fire Department were
promptly on hand and worked heroically, the
building with moist of its contents was in a
short time entirely destroyed. There were
thirteen horses in'tlie stable at the time, nine
belonging to Mr. Marshall and four transient,
one of which was a valuable race horse from
Walla Walla, brought in by a man named Har
xii only tnree hours before the fire broke out,
all of which were burned.
There were also a number of buggies and
covered hacks in the stablo, nearly all of which
were burned as well as a large amount of hay
and grain. Two meu who were sleeping in the
stable awoke just in time to Rave themselves
It is not known how the fire originated, but it is
supposed to be the work of en incendiary. The
loss falls Heavily on Mr. Marshall, who had
nearly all his available means invested in the
business. Nearly a theusand dollars were sub
soribed Thursday forenoon for hla relief by the
cititsens of Albany.
At one time there seemed great danger of the
fire spreading to the adjacent buildings and the
contents of Cannon's livery stable and several
other buildings were removed, but by the exer
tions of the firemen the conflagration was con
fined to the building in which it originated.
This is the latest news we have fjo til Si

Business in Portland seems very dull just at
present, but there is considerable travel
enough to keep a good ran on the principal ho

fair business; none are doing better probably
Uian the St. Charles, owing to the popularity of
the landlord and the very reasonable charges.
The Commercial Hotel lately opened in Port
land on the plan and price of the Commercial
here, is getting a merited ran, and still another
h.Jtel building is being put up on First street by
a new comer, Mr. Qu&ckenbush. The main
building, is two stories 90 by 24 with 50 feet
front, to be ready about the 1st of of January.
It also will be conducted on a similar scale of
prices aB the Commercial, under the name of
"Iowa Hotel."
The steamer Ohio, haying been thoroughly
overhauled, during this week after a year of
hard service, is expected to be ready for service
and probably come np on Monday, while the

These two boats seem to be growing in favor
with the people, as they form an independent
line, carrying at low rates, accommodating the
people in picking up freight or passengers at
any poiut, and affording the comforts for a trip.
The same may be true, to some extent, ot
some of the other boats, now plying on this
upper river, would be pleased to say the same
of all, were it merited.
A heavy wheat dealer from Yamhill predicts

THE ,I.AKRV FAIR.
lint Sight
The Fair held at the Opera House Thursday
evening, under the management of the young
ladies' Gleaner Society of the M. E. Church,
was a decided success in every particular. The
fair young managers were indefatigable in their
efforts to malic the evening pass pleasantly to
all those in attendance, while at the same time
manifesting a, laudable desire that their funds
should be materially increased.
The display of articles offered for sale were
very creditable both as to quantity and quality;
that of needlework predominating.
One feature of the Fair attracted the univer
sal attention of the numerous "little folks"
present, and that was the "Little old woman
that lived in her shoe," and had "So many chil
dren she did not know what to do," personated
by one of the little girls dressed up in "mother
ly" style, seated in a mammoth shoe improvised
for the occasion and literally covered with a
profusion of gaily dressed dolls, mounted on
wheels, which was drawn around the hall fol.
lowed by a troupe of happy-faced children. The
"Art Gallery" was the popular favorite with
children of older growth, and "drew" im
mensely.
A list of names of articles under the head,
"Department of Literature, Art and Statuary"
was placed in the hands of each V'sitor and it
was amusing to see them marching around and
comparing the numbers on the printed list
with those on the labels of the curiosieies. The
last night of the Fair our reporter remained to
a very late hour and compositors became
"tired" and we leave a general review and giua- I
hubs up el ivnaJw fw Svufri Kf4is.

To obviate the disadvantages and fatigues ex

devices to improve this part of the machine
The best one thus far, and acknowledged by all

which has been in the market and in use long
enough to show its undoubted merits. It cam
not be described in a short article, but the
principle upon which it acts it is engenjous

succession without fatigue. It has been exam

IVOTKS BY Till: WAY.
A new anil iwful improvement on t'te
river steamers i; the head light for night
travel. While parsing up the river on the
"City of Salem,'' in the thick darknes? of
a rainy night, thce reflecton throw
a light forward over the water? and near
shore, scattering the sleeping birds with
terror, rendering night travel on the river
quite romantic, while it assists in receiv
ing and discharging cargoes at the various
landing.
The "City of Salem" took on a pleasure
party of ladies at Salem on her last trip to
Harrisburg, rentlering Hie darkness and
gloom outside light ami gay within, by
song ami mush: on the fine piano, and an
occasional waltz throw n in to keep the oay
variety, the purser assisting with violin in
solo ami in chorus, to amuse, while other
duties were not pressing. So all were
happy without a marriage boll. Above
Coryaliis, in daylight, the ver is divided
and snlxliviiletl in m many chutes, chan
nels and cut-offs that any new navigator
m:ght take one, thinking he ought to have
taken the other, and wishing he had be
fore he is satisfied lie is in the main river.
The Government pulled some snags from
this part of the river, hut their number is
legion yet, and they come and go during
high water - like birds ot passage.
It might be more serviceable to navi
gation up here to have finger hoards
placed at the numerous forks pointing the
pilot the main channel, or one through
which he could pass, without cutting over
hanging trees that were left after the "one
hundred tons of brush" by government
last summer. See government report of
last summer's work.l
River has iallen eighteen inches since
last Friday, but likely to come up if the
rain continues. The City ot Salem re
ceived a cargo ol wheat at this point and
Monroe, with other freight and passengers.
There are some shippers who appreciate
tlie advantages ot reasonable rates of
freight and tare on the river, well know
ing that a combination of the lines mean
higher rates, and perhaps no boats at all
for two years, as it was a short time since.
The Independent Line, you perceive by
ad. in another column, propose to make
regular trips and go to any place on the
upper river, when business calls and
weather permits.
At Harrisburg improvements arc going
on. Jew Odd Fellows' hall, Hiram
Smith & Co. have improved their corner
with a two-story durable store, a gram
elevator, several dwellings, another hotel
and several additions to note. The late
high water carried away the darn, but they
saved about 1,000 barrels of Hour.

the information that that remarkable man.
is a resident of this part of the country, I
set out in search of him. The streams be

ha4 some difllculty in reaching his place of
residence. The worst obstacles in my
way, were trees fallen across the road,
which constantly impeded my progress.
A tlr tree a hundred yards from the road,
falling directly towards it U sure to reach
across it. But 1 put my horse through on
his best speed (a borrowed horse), jumping
him over logs, climbing around them
and squeezing under them, I ariiyed hi
good time. Found a well cultivated tarm,
good house, barn, fences nnd other Im
provements, splendid orchard, shrubbery,
even giapn vines, strawberries, etc., giv

Seeing two men butchering a hog, I rode
towards them. They were just in the act
ol hanging it on a peg nearly ont ot (heir
reach. 'R.t,-, .ferry, rar," were tlie first
words I heard as I approached them, when
the old man's foot slipped and he, hog and
all fell into the mud he and the hog side
by aide on their backs. The young man
to save himself from lulling nport them,
stumbled astride ot both, making a pic
ture which only Nast could render ridicu
lously nasty to truthfulness. I sat motion
less on my horse uncertain whether to
laugh, sympathize or assist them, but I
said as the old man made a motion to rise,
"Good evening, Gentlemen." He said,
"Good evening. Sir," in a cheerful, gen
tlemanly style, half raised from his ridicu
lous position. 1 then Inquired if "this is
where ('apt. West wood lives t" "Yes,
sir, 'light," was his prompt reply "that's
what they call me, d n 'em. I was only
captain of one wagon across the plains,"

horse and assisted them to hang the iiog,
by which time there was a general uproar

ing interview of the evening. The butch
ering being soon over, and having told my
name and business, he said, "I.et'iS go to
the itoue. Jerry, put the giutleman's boss
up." He conducted nm to a good, sub
stantia!, plain tarm residence, introduced
me to his wite and two daughters all as
gnod tiatureil, genial and happy as one
could find in a day's journey. In cxpian
lion of how he got so muddy, he gave a
humorous account of his fall and introduc

round, in which his wife and daughters
participated, alter which he exchanged
clothes and we were ensconced fur the
evening lwide an old fashioned lire-place-with
the clock on the mantel between
flower-yases and statuettes, picture? on

The Captain gave a brief but thrilling ac
count of their journey across the plains.' I
regret my inability to condense into one

while traveling high up on the Platte, in
company with other teams and a drove of
cattle, coming to good grass they conclud
ed to camp early. They drove their teams

on the opposite bank and were alsout to

opposite bank and bad just given orders
to corrall the wagons when a lightning
hock prostrated the whole company, hor
ses mule', cattle and moreover 500 head
of stock and thirty men. A tree close by
was riven into splinters. Soon they all
rose, but two never; one ot whom cried,
put me in the creek, I'm burning up.'"
They bathed him several times the other
also, but he was dead, the former recov
ered siifiieient to be hauled across to Cali
fornia wherejie died that IU1I. Some will
read this who were in the train at (he
time, participated in and weie ohserveis
of the awful pheiieenina. A singular in
cident connected with this is (he fact that
a young man who was driving a lazy calf
about half a mile back on the road was
prostrated by th3 same shock and the calf
killed. The man was left to tell the (ale.
After the Captain's brief narrative of
the plains Mrs. W., by way of sequel,
continued it with a briel ideal pictute of
their journey up the coast limiting a ford
across the Pacific. On inquiring I learned
that the story was originated by himself
n a letter to friends in Missouri in which
he said he had crossed all the way suc
cessfully, had got as f;r west as he could
go lor the Pacific and had traveled .100
miles up it hunting a ford, hut when he
struck the Umpqua and could not find it
he gave up, he would have gone, further,
but he found a country that just pleased
him, that he did not intend to go further
nor move again. He is not tired of this
country yet. California he thinks too un
certain, on account ot droughts, for sue
cessful farming. Nothing here but bad
fences endanger crops. lie gave me a
description ot I.oon Lake and Ten Mile
Lake and their surroundings. The for
mer is about 15 miles south of Seottsburg;
the latter half way between Winchester
and Coos Bay, near the coast. These
lakes are surrounded bv good land for set
tlement.
As a fit termination of the evening's en
tertainment the Captain suggested that we
have a tune or two. I seconded the mo
tion, whereupon after a little persuasion,
the elder daughter gave us a few tunes
on the piano, finishing up with "Home,
Sweet Home," the best I ever heard it.
Indeed, 1 seemed to hear it lor the first
time. Such soul, sentiment, pathos, I had
never imagined could be condensed into
that piece! It was simply played, not
sung. It touched a cord in my soul, and
tears filled my eyes, .and I could imagine
the feelings of the homeless, wandering
composer as he incarnated and imiiiWtal
ized in that tune the sentiment ot the most
exalted of our race, but never before him
given utterance. Little was said after.
We quietly retired for the night, 1 think
ing, musing, dreaming of "Home, Sweet
Home."
IYieltling next morning to pressing invi
tations I consented to remain until a'.tr
dinner and take a stroll with the Captain
ab out the farm. We saddled our horses
nnd went In all directions, about as far as
we could for the brush; finally on turning
a point ol the bluff that jets out into the
valley, right above us on the point was a
lear in full view and easy range. The
Captain without a word raised his Henry
rillo and fired. The horse gave a hinge
side wise and backward and the Captain
was thrown into an old fir tree top and his
horse left in lull .speed for the house. My
horse tried to run also, but I succeeded in
turning him and saw the Captain hung up
on an old dry limb p.nd the bear coming
down the hill directly for him. 1 halloed,
"the bear Is coming," yet at the same
moment thought my companion was
pierced through by one of those sharp
bayonet like limbs, but before I could do
or say anything more the bear had struck
him and were both together. I hurried to
the center of attraction and round the
limb had only run through his clothes and
up his backf making it next to impossible
to disengage himself, but had succeeded
by the time I reached him. The bear was
dead, ths bullet having passed through his
brain, and he rolled directly past the
Captain, whs like a fowl on a spit before
the lire, awaited his approach. "I knew
I'd killed it," was his first words, "but
d n that horse, If I'd had my spotted
Cayuse I could a set and shot all day,"
and he jumped on the bear and transposed
a dozen texts of scripture and part of the
catechism, and wound up with: "Well, I
don't care tor nothing else, but Us ruined
my new pants. I couldn't run from this
bear, could 1 ?" I pinned up his clothes
as bet I could and we went to skinning
the bear, but before it was skinned Jerry
had arrived with his father's horse, ap
prised by the horse's return that some
thing was wrong, and he caught the horse
and brought him back. . The Capt. showed
his clothes as evidence that he had been
near a "bar." We left It and went to tiie
house. They intended to return with the
team for the game. Wc arrived in good
time tor dinner. The Captain's encoun
ter with the bear and hi nar
row escajie engrossed the dinner hour.
I have but one more Item to pen, leav
ing unsaid much that would interest the
readers of the Statesman'. We had green
peas.cncumbers and tomatoes picked right
Irom the vines that morning, cooked and
prepared in the usual way. Xo frot to
present date, things green and growing.
The Captain followed me ont as I left ami
lu a co'itidential manner said: "Now,
come up the first time the weather is good,
and have some more fun, if it is at my own
expense. I'll take you to the elk range
and you can kill your first one and may be
1 can kill another bear. Xow. come." I
promised him 1 would. Pionek!!.
