A young man weighing about eight
pounds called at the residence of Mr.
and Mrs. John Hertz this morning
about 6:30 o'clock, and he likes the
place, so he has decided to stay. He
didn't say his name was Dewey, nor
Sampson, neither is it Bismarck, tor Mr.
Hertz eaya even these names are not
good enough for him.

The wife of a man named Moon, in
Arkansas, presented him with a tine
baby boy. This was a new Moon. The
father celebrated the event by drinking
himself full. This was the full moon.
When he awoke from his drunken
stuper all he bad left in his pockets was
25 cents. This was the last quarter.
His mother-in-law beat him over the
head with a club, thus giving him a
total eclipse.
A slight accident occurred to the steam;
shovel a short distance beyond Laj
Grande last evening. Having been usedl
in the mountaius during the summer,
the shovel was being brought down,
when an axle broke near, one wheel,
causing both of them "to fall to the mid
dle of the track and the car to slide for
quite a little distance. But about four
hours were consumed in repairing the
damage, and No. 4 was delayed about
five hours.
Our ignorance as to the Eti ictneeB of
officers of the law cansed us to make a
misstatement in regard to the parting of
Mr. and Mrs. Forester yesterday. Not
taking into consideration that the law
and justice demands that a murderer be
kept in Bolitude as nearly as possible and
that no visitor be allowed within the
bars, we have frequently considered the
officers cruel who would not permit the
wife to enter the cell and converse with
her husband. Yesterday upon hearing
that Mrs. Forester had bidden her hus
band good-bye, we naturally inferred
that love was not the only one who un
locked the bars, but that the jailer as
sisted. In this we were mistaken, and
therefore apologize to Mr. Fitzgerald,
who might be considered remiss in his
duties, which accusation can never be
applied to the present jailery
The reception given to Mj and Mrs.
Richard Rees last evening at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. M. Parkin's was very en
joyable. About fourtee'n guests were
present who spent theours in a happy
way, congratulating the newly-married
couple, engaging in pleasant conversa
tion and listening to sweet music. A
delicious wedding lunch was also served.
C. M. Finch, agent for the St." Louis
Art Metal Co. and C. W. Hodson, of the
Irwin, Hodson Co., of Portland, are in
the city today superintending the work
of placing the steel furniture in the
vault at the county court house. This
vault will be the most substantial. in the
state of Oregon. The furniture being of
steel, there will be positively no danger
to records and valuable papers in case
of fire, it is certainly a move in the
righTmrection, and one' which has long
been needed here. The experience of
other towns in Oregon, ench as Roseburg
and Dallas, which have recently lost re
cords which. were invaluable, by fire has
taught us a lesson and we are now profit
ing by it.

The Vogt opera house presented a
