Of all the cities of the Willamette valley, none are exhibiting so mucn push and energy, or making so muoh substantial progress, as Albany, the county sent of Linn county; and this i - di e, not only to its many natural advantages of location and resources, but aiso to the enterprising and liberal nature of its citizens. No matter what may be the natural ad vantages of a place, unless a disposi tion is displayed to utilize them to their fullest extent, but little profit will be derived trom them. The history of the west is full of instances where towns have grown apace and developed into cities of wealth and commercial importance, though pos sessing less natural advantages than some one or more of its unsuccesstul rivals, simply through the energy, enterprise and united action of its citizens. In a still more marked degree has been the progress of cities in which both these elements are found ia combination, as they are in Albany. In the matter of transporta tion facilities it surpasses any other city in the valley, or, in fact, in the state, save Portland. It has always possessed an outlet by way of thei Willamette river, and for riftfn years has had the main line of th. -Oregon & California road passng through it. This road now belongs to the Southern Pacific, and consti tutes a portion of the great overland route between Portland and Sen Francisco, the link by which the great southern and northerj trans continental lines arecoiinected on the Pacific coast. Albany also has the Oregon Pacific, which gives it an indepenuent outlet to the sea at Yaquina bay, connecting there with a regular steamer line to San Francisco. This gives the city railroad connection with two ooean ports in Oregon Portland and Ya nuina. This road is being extended e .stward across the Cascade mountains,'-the interior plateau ot Oregon, the Blue mountains and the Snake river basin, to Boise City, there to connect with the westward Extension of the Chicago & Northwestern with in a veiy few years, possibly two. Albany also possesses a branch line to Lebanon, a thriving interior town of Linn county, where it connects with the narrow gauge line extending up the valley from Portland. It wil. thus be seen that its transportation facilities are of the first order, and that, in so far as these are important, it is especially qualified to become an important manufacturing and dis tributing point. In addition to its shipping advan tages, which enable it to secure raw materials and market the manufactur- ing products quickly and cheaply, it possesses other qualifications as a manuiaciunng point, cnier oi wmcn is its abundant water power, brought in a large canal from the Santiam river, and rendered available in two localities, both convenient to the railroads and river. This is now be ing utilized by several industries, all of which are prospering and growing, and there is a largo surplus of power available for still otner forms of manufacture which might undertake until some definite results are ob to handle the large quantity of taiued. For military purposes natural and cultivated products of visual signals are obtained by re thair:giou. Not a small factor i" j fleeting the sun's rays or the'cal the probable success of such new j ciuU) , lt from a combination of muustnes as may seek a location j mirror8ha3 great advantages. The there, is the disposition shown ,by tne riash even m an ordiarv fleUl citizens to toster and encourage all!, , . .-. . new enterprises seeking to establish ! diograpn cau be seen with the themselves. The hearty good will ! ked eye forty miles or more, aud aud cheerful aid of the business men j communication thus quickly estab- of the city may be relied upon. They i are desirous of budding up the city in every possible legitimate manner, and to this end are exhibiting the liberal and enterprising spirit previously spoken of as being one of the essential factors to a rapid, but at the same time substantial and ermanent, growth. Other features of a live and pro gressive city, which the careful manufacturer considers before se'ect ing a location in whih to invest his means, such as substantial hanks and commercial houses, good schools, good city government, a superior clas3 ot business structures and public buildings, and a' cuss of residences ! beariug evidence of the culture and refinement of the people, Albany possesses in i full measure. No man need hesitate to select that city for a residence for fear that he will not find ample facilities for transiting his business, good schools in which to educate his children, or refined society for his family. Surrounding the city is one of the largest and most pro ductive agricultural sections of the famous Willamette valley, not only in Linn county, but in that portion of the valley lying on the west side of the river. The bridge offers a splen did means of communication with the west side, which is supplemented by a ferry on the river. Farmers from an extended region go to Albany to trade, and send the product of their farms there for shipment. There is scarcely an advantage of location possessed by a.. y other city which this thriving place does not enjoy, while at the same time, it has other advantages peculiar to itself. There is little that one could look for or desire in a thriving interior city, that may not be found in ample pro portions in this prosperous and most beautiful place. West Shore.

Of course those pro ductions of Oregon which are con sumed at home are as cheap as elsewhere. Hotel rates in the towns of the interior average 1 per day tor transient customers. Board and lodging by the week about 5 at the hotels, and about $4 at private houses. House rent in small towns are very reasonable. Good five room houses with ample yard attached can be had for from $5 to $12 per mouth. Farm hands command about $25 per mouth, by the year's hire;harvest hands, 1.75 or $2.50 per day; house servants about $20 per month. For mechanics, carpenters and shop hands, the average is probably $3 per day; masons $3. Milch cows are worth $o0 each, horses $200 per span. As to the yield of Oregon pro ductious, we take the report of the government, actual figures furnish ed by the growers and the estimates made by the farmers generally. Out of a dozen farmers interviewed two had less than 24 bushels ol wheat to the acre. It is a common thing to have 08 and 40 and even 50 bushels of wheat to the acre. The government makes the average neaily twenty tlmv; c-us 45 to 85 bushels to the acre. It is not an UDCommon thing to have a yield of 75 to 100 bushels of oats to the acre in eastern Oregon. Oats from 5 to 8 feet Tiigh are frequent in tnis section of the state. A good deal of this grain weighs 50 pounds to the bushel. Wheat raised in this state weighs 64 pounds to the bushei: barley yields on the average 2b" to !$ bushels to the acre; rye 20 to u0 bushels. Potatoes about 250 and often over 350 bushels to the acre. The growth of ouch things as squashes, pumpkins, sweet potatoes and the like is simply astonishing. The Experiments on Ml. Hood A great deal of interest was taken by the eastern press in the ascent of Mt. Hood on the Fourth of Julv. All the principal journals j had telegraphic specials about it. fhe New York Herald publishtd tne following editorial : The illumination ot Mt. Hood on Wednesday night is reported to have been a peifect success. Al though the experiments of signal ing from the mountain to Portland by heliograph have been inter fered with by cloudy skies, it is to be honed they will be continued lished between bodies ot troops in regions where cavalry couia scarce- ly operate at all. l he portability of the instruments for this kind of signaling and the accuracy with which the messages cau be read nt long distances lend peculiar inter ests to the experiments now be ing made at Mt. Hood. They Want Another Train Oregon City is not satisfied with its present passenger facilities on ; the O. & C. At the last meeting of its board of trade, the advisa bility of asking the Southern Pa- (;ific railroad company to put on local trains from fcalem or Albany to Portland so as to accommodate the Oregon City passenger traffic was discussed at length.

Frenchman With an Insatiable Appetite. Lonilon Standard. In the lictionaire des Science Meuicales Dr. I'ercy tells of a soluur named Tarare. This man was Jborn near Lyons, and came up to Paris, where his first exploit was to eat a basket of apples at a friend's expense. On various occasions he swallowed a series of corks and other iudigestib.e materials, which produced such violent colic that he was obliged to attend the Hotel Dieu, and while be ing examined almost rainaged to swallow the watchchain and seals ot the surgeon in attendance, M. Giraud, On the occasion ot one oi these at tacks of coiic it was tried to frighten him out of his gross habits by declar ing that it would be necessary to open his stoma ii, and the doctor proceeded to arrange his instruments accordingly. Tarare, however, lound an opportunity to run away, and relieved himself yy taking copious uraughs of warm water. Soou alter he found that his appetite had really increased to an excessive amouut probably owing to the irritation pr duced by these absurd tricks. At 17 vears of aae. when only weighing 100 p und3, he could eat twenty-four jj.iiitids of beef m as many hours, rie now entered the army, aud being rjcoonized by the surgeou-major. M. Courville of the Ninth Regiment of Hussars, was detailed for the sake of curiosity. From the day of his admission he wis ordered quadruple rations, with pickings and waste meat, tut often a i p:d into the dispensary and la.d hands on anything eatable. Une day he was observed to seize a large cat, and, after sucking his blood, left in a very short time only cleanly picked bones, the hair being rejected iu the course of half an hour like that of other caruivor. He was fond of serpents and eels, swallowing the m whole. CHI'Bl'H sEKIM'IS. Wheke, When' and by Whom Sekvi. ces Will he Held To-Dav. Catholic. Services every Sunday at 10:o0 a. iu.

All inflamed and sore eyes can be cured unless disorganization has taken piace. Artificial eyes inserted and, tue most efficient braces for the cure of crooked limbs, club feet, spinal diseases, etc., furnished. CUOSS EVES CURED. The fol iowii)g reference to Dr. Eaton is taken from the Merced Argus of the 21 inst: "On Saturday last we witnessed an operation upon a cross-eye by Dr. Eaton at hii rooms iu the Ei Capitan Hotel. The subject was a twelve-year old daughter of Mr. Hunsakar, a resident of this town who has been from her birth af flicted with cross eyes. It was done without pain to the little girl, who during the operation on the eyes, smilingly answered several questions asked her by the Doctor aud ourselves. Minnie Huusaker, the subject in this ease, after the operation, appeared a bright pretty little girl and smiled gratefully while thanking the Doctor for treating her so teuderiy and sub jecting ier to so little pain." The following account, of a re markable surgicai operation per formed by Dr. Eatou is taken from the El Paso Times of the 10th ultimo: . "In company with Captain S. D. Siocum we called to see Mus Jen nie Slocura the youngest daughter of the Captain, who has been in El Paso under the treatment of Dr. Eaton. We remember to have seen this young lady months ago at the ranch, with her foot twisted until it was at other foot, as straight right. We right angles with the To-day the left foot is aud natural as the congratulate the youDg lady and rejoice with her father in this successful perform ance of Dr. Eaton. We were skeptical until we witnessed the result. We are now satisfied of the promises of the doctor. Iu these instances they were verified." A remarkable case was brought to our notice yesterday, being that of a 15-year old daughter ol Mr. E. P. Gilpin, a substantial tanner, formerly of Columbia, Missouri, now living near Collis buig, iu this couuty, who had been totally blind from scrofula in the eye for fifteen months. She was treated by Dr. Eaton, who is now iu this city, after one personal examination, by mail with the gratifying result of restoring sight completely. The Doctor aud his young patient are both receiviug congratulations. Gains viile Hesperian. BOOTS -AND- SHOES At Actual Cost -AT Brownell A stanard's. Come EailySaad Get Sizes.
