Pease & Mays today received a con signment of beans that would be aeredit to Boston. There was a whole carload, twelve tons, 24,000 pounds of these min ers' delights and household necessities. As it takes quite a number of beans to weigh an ounce, some carions person might figure oat the number of beans in the lot. The Dalles had no celebration July 4th, it abandoned the firemen's tourna ment, and now it is probable the an nual meeting of the fair association will also be abandoned, and Pendleton will gt it. The matter depends upon the collections that can be made for the pur pose of hanging up purses, and so far the committee is meeting with very poor success. L. E. Morse was up from White Sal mon last night, and j6is genial smile eerved to dispel the darkness and take the place of the electric light that we do not possess. At the boat this morning he incidentally remarked that the fish ing in the White JBalmon was at its best, and that the fish are so ravenous that tne usnerman tfas to take his hook be hind a tree to bait it. Latest reports from Ireland confirm the statements of the threatened desti tution there from the destruction of the crops. The devastation is not confined to a certain district, but includes all sec tions of the island. Not since-1847 has the condition been so serious. The at tention of the government is urged in anticipation of the destitution and fam ine which is imminent. A very rare specimen of an owl is on exhibition in Eugene. It is what is known nmong ornithologists as the monkey owl, its face bearing a very striking resemblance to the monkey. It was captured by George Smith at Coburg, after he had broken a wing. This owl is rareiy seen away from Africa, to which it is native, and it is a question how it came to this vicinity, says the Eugene Register. Mr. A. B. Jones returned Wednesday from a trip to Grand Forks, B. C. He found that town rather quiet; for the reason that most of the people were out prospecting. Some rich finds in quartz have recently been made. He saw his son, Frank, M. F. Sloper and Thomas Lacey, all doing well. Mr. Jones is the owner of a placer claim in the heart of the city, He has leased eleven other claims and will go to work on them as soon as he can wind up his business here and return. Glacier. If a man has a two-dollar bull pup he looks after it carefully and does not allow it to roam all over town at night, but if he has a boy it is different. He is turned loose at an early age to go to the devil, and then the people wonder where the army ot tramps, bums, dead beats, loafers, gamblers and drunkards came from. They are germinated from poor seed gathered from our streets and aneys. it may oe tnat your boy is making a growth in that direction. At all events the boy should be given an equal snowing witn the Dull pup. Agriculturist. A report haB been sent out from Eddv ville, on Yaquina bay, that two miles and a half from there, on the Dntton place, a gold quartz discovery has been maae mat causes great excitement in Lincoln county. Mining claims, under United States law, 1500x600 feet, have been filed fo." over three miles in length of the canyon. One of the claims on file at Toledo is named Prosperity. G. W Bnford, of Yaquina, an experienced miner, has just returned from the ledges of the Little Elk, and declares it to be largely . a decomposed quartzite and prophyry rock bearing from $13 to $35 to the ton. A big water power is supplied by the falls of the canyon, sufficient to work the mines. To the south is a large tract of government land, and east is railroad land. The mine is 20 miles east of Toledo. A lady's shoe, found some place in California, has been started the rounds of the express offices of the coast, pre sumably in search of its owner. It has at least a hundred tags on it, containing the comments ot the express agents, some of which are very bright. Most of the tags are done up in metrical feet, some of which fit the shoe. It is a num ber 3, and the lady who lost it has no idea of the fame the dainty little piece of foot-wear has earned. Of course it is a long stretch of the imagination to try to fill that shoe up, or to build from so slender a foundation the blessed little creature who at one time tripped the streets of soma California town inside of it. Oar own impression as we gazed at it was that its owner weighed 116 pounds, had blue eyes and black hair, and that her name was -Dennis. NitrogenecurerheumatiBminlO davs. FIBSONAL HENTIOS. ' A. B.

Early, of the confederate fame. It is this: The federals and confederates were about to engage in battle in Virginia, during the late war, Gen. Early in com mand of the confederate side. Just about the time the firing commenced, the chaplain to Early's army, a devout man past middle life, promptly observed to the General that he had no further use for him at the time, but in case bis services should be needed to comfort the dying, he could be found just over the bill, and then departed in a gallop. Gen. Early, indignant at the chaplain's course, said to those around him : "Now look at that old scoundrel ; he has been praying to go to heaven for over thirty years and the first opportunity he has to get there, runs away."
