Concerning the Grismer-lhivies company, which will appear at the opera house in this city next Fri day evening in"The World Against Her,"' the New York Evening Sun savs : The first production of "The World Against Her." a melo drama of Englisn life, by Frank Harvey, was made on the city stage last niglit at the People's theater and the house was packed to its capacity. Mr. Harvey's play had considerable success in Eng land before A. M. Palmer secured it for this country. It is, beyond a doubt, destined to become popular here with the vast multitude of playgoers who like melodrama. "The World Against Her" is the story of a faithful wife's nobility and fortitude through a series of domestic calamities, caused pri marily by the stupidity of a too busy husband, and incidentally assisted by the rejected lover of the good wife. The play is full of action ; all the incidents are stir ring and probable ; the language is vigorous, if simple; some of the character sketches are vivid, and every climax is ingeniously con trived and thoroughly effective. How Albany 1 Crowing. In some of the suburbs of this city the statement that what a year ago was a wilderness is now a city of homes is trnlv verified. The other day Mr. N." H.Allen, proprietor of the electric light plant of this city, desired Denver Hack leman, who furnished the poles a year ago, from a thick grove on his father's premises below this city.to furnish a few hundred more. The latter thought he would do so, but on coins: down to look after the job found that the land had been sold off as town lots and where the crave stood a rear ago handsome residences had been reared, while manv more are in process of con Ktmction on all sides. This is not romance but an actual fact. laqnlaa Bay. Fifteen hundred dollars will buy one hundred feet of water front, Vint fL'tton Vnll street and the Bay View limine. Newport.

ALBANY'S -6R0WTB.ILIST OF PRESENTS Important Advantages Which Cannot Be Overlooked A W'OIII) TO NEW COMEItS. The New Woolen Mills-Street Car Lines The Kich Country Tributary to the City- Those of are Eastern neighbor who have come West, and are looking for a location can find no bitter place to engage in any of the varied pursuits or business "avoca tions, which in a growing country like Oregon always offer liberal returns for labor and capital in vested, than in Albany and vicinity. The wide agricultural section, in the heart of the Willamette Valley, when taken together with the public spirit of the citizens here, and unsurpassed water power, and the rich and extensive country tributary to the city, are factors which cannot remain improductive of grand results, as is every day being exhibited in the steadtly increasing trade of the city, and the establishment of new and important manufactores and other public enterprises. Concerning the present outlook of the city, it is even to the most skeptical certainly promising. Arrangements have been made by the citizens of Albany to have the woolen mills now at Brownsville removed to this city. For this purpose, Albany business men have subscribed the sum of $25, 000,000. which will be used to double the capacity of the mill and the work is now under way. No better location for a woolen irill can be found in the Willamette Valley than Albany, which posses ses shipping facilities unsurpassed, by both rail and water, and is sur rounded by a splendid farming countrj, from which come some of the linest fleeces produced on the Pacific coast. It is very essential that a manufactory of this nature should have superior means for reaching market with its product, and this is ore of the chief reasons why the proprietors of this estab lishment are making this change in their location, and because of this, feel justified in so largely in creasing the capacity of the mill. A company of wealthy citizens lias been organized to provide the city with a street railway system, and one mile of road will be com pleted by July 1st. Ice works are being erected, the mines in the eastern part of the county are being developed, and altogether a prom ising hem is onered tor every avo cation. The capitalist, the manu facturer, the farmer, the attisan. the mechanic, the miner, all cn hnd opportunities for engaging in business, with the assurance of profitable returns on time and money expended. The car shoos of the Oregon Pa cific railroad company are soon to ! be located here, and on the com pletion of this road to an eastern connection with a transcontinental route, Albany will be the en-J of the most important division of the road, and will within the next year command a large share of the trad; from the rich grain, wool and stock raising sections of Eastern j Oregon, at the same tune being the junction of this road and the great Southern Pacific line. Work has been commenced on a large amount of building, including several line bricks, and the site for a big brick hotel has bcn purchased. Coupled w ah tins general spirit : of improvement is exhibited a marked activity in real estate, and j a steady growing tendency on the j part of "the business men to reach i out after a wholesale and jobb ng trade and to embark m business on j a broader and more metropolitan i scale. The present season is marked with more confidence in business enterprises than has been exhibited in the city for many yean, and before the year ends the impetus to business, new enter prises and new buildings, which are aheady under way, will beevia dence that the citizens of Albany were not mistaken when they directed their efforts toward mak ing this a business center by en couraging railroads and inviting manufacturing. These facts, it is gratiflying to note, arc not overlaoked by the shrewd newcomer in search of a location, but the advantages oi this portion of Oregon are only begin ning to be realized. The number of people who will in the successive seasons build themselves homes, and locate here to engage in busi nessfarming, fruit culture, manu facturing, and other renumerative occupations, will verify the asser tion that fortunate are those who secure property and a location here before the great rush to this state advances property values to double and quadruple their present prices.
