A Foot ard a Half of Snow Near the Sam-mit-Gatesville Notes. Gatesville, May IS. The news that work is to be re sumed at once on the Oregon Pa cific railroad is hailed with delight here. It means lively times all along the line. 1 At Gatesville considerable sport as been indulged in by the citi zens in cougar hunting. T.Henness recently killed two, and a party of hunters a few days ago chased one of these animals into town when it was killed. Land along the line of the Ore gon Pacific railroad is fast being taken up by settlers. The land is yet unsurveyed and it is held by squatters. Some fine fruit lands have been taken up and will be held by settlers until a survey of this region is made. pack train is now running every Saturday from Rock Creek to Mt. Jefferson and the mineral sorings rear Indeendence valley fur the accommodation of tourists. These springs are situated one and j a half miles below Independence valley. In this valley, 12 miles ! from the summit, snow is 18 inches deep, which is the result of the re cent storm. The saw-mills at Mill City are doing a thriving business. Th.ee planing machines are now running, and 32,000 feet of dressed lumber is turned out daily. Double saws have been placed in the mill and a shingle and lath machine, has also been added to the mills. The ca pacity of the mills is 52,000 feet of lumber per day,and little or none of it is placed on the vard, but it is shipped direct to Albany and other places. TREATMENT OF XEWCOMIKS Already the tide of immigration is beginning to come to our city : we shall have sent forth the 10,000 pamphlets and the same number of views and folders, to gether with the efforts of the de partment commander, E. B. Mc Elroy, iu displaying the produc tions' of our soil at Milwaukee, Wis., there is no question as to the rapid influx of settlers from the other states. This will fill our hotels, tax our transportation ac commodation, croud our lodging and boarding capacities, and, in short, demand of us all the enter taining facilities we possess. It is, perhaps, natural in some people to lose sight of the future in the pres ent, and take an undue advantage of the necessitioes of people and over-charge, or, as they call it, "cinch them for all they are worth." This is bad policy and" reflects dis credit, not only upon the individ ual, but the city as well. Serious complaints have often been made of other cities that some of its jeo ple have squeezed the last dollar they could get from those who must have shelter or food, and therefore we forestall the occasion bv the statement that no sach complaint is truthfully made of Albany. Our citizens" have and will at all times maintain the rep utation gained in the past that of being hospitable and just under all circumstances.

The steamer Willamette Valley arrived on Sunday morning and sailed Tuesday at 10 a. m. Owners of row and sail boats are getting their crafts ready for sum mer use on the bay. The steam ferry boat Rebecca C, has been thoroughly repaired and is now in service again. Capt. Willard Young, of the U. S. engineer crops, spent several days in Newpoit during the past week, inspecting the government works. The steam schooner Mischief! arrived from Portland on Saturday. She was compelled to stay in Astoria several days owing to the roughness of the Columbia bar. There seems to be a fair pros pect for a six dollar round trip rate from Yaquina Bay to Portland this season. If the rate is made between the Oregon Pacific and the Narrow Guage road,the South ern Pacific will probably come to the same terms. Mr. C. H. Haswell, Jr., general agent ol the Oregon Development company at San Francisco, came up on the Willamettce Valley and took a look over Yaquina Bay. He visited Newport and South Beach on Monday, and returned to San Francisco on the steamer. Mr. Polhemus thinks if no un looked for accidents take place that he will make a big showing with the work on the north jetty with the funds now available. This jetty will rest on bed rock almost to'the black buoy and will not absorb rock as the south jetty does. The steamer Manzanita, tender j for the light houses on this part of the coast, came in from Astoria last Friday. She placed a black buoy at the entrance to the harbor. She also painted some of the spar buoys. She also landed material for an oil house at Cape Foul weather iight house. On Saturday she sailed for the harbors of South ern Oregon Capt. Sebree, light house inspector, joined Jier at this point. An Incipient Blaze. When the curtain dropped at the close of the third act of the Chicago Comedy Company's play at the opera house last evening a large lamp which some ingenious man had suspended by a cord, fell to the 6tage with a" crash, the coid having been burned off. A fierce blaze was the result, which, how ever, was quickly smothered out without serious damage. Thos. Overman had his hands somewhat burned in assisting in extinguish ing the fire. Few of the audience knew of the accident, or a panic might have resulted. Indian War Claims. There has just been collected from the United States government cn the Indian war claims of Oregon, $38,132.98. This payment is prac tically in full of all claims for warded. There are small claims yet remaining but these will also be lorwarded when the proper vouchers are receied. To illus trate the wonderful amount of offi cial business that had to be trans acted in relation to this matter, it may be stated that during the. year 1S88, 96 pounds of official papers and documents bearing on these war claims were forwarded from the state department to Washing ton. Uncle Sam has at last paid off the long list of faithful servants who aided in the civilization and early development of this great Northwest. The Biggest Yet. Mr. W. B. Shannon, the Yankee gardener, of Cloverdale, across the river from this city, left at Wallace, Thompson & Company's yesterday 100 boxes of strawberries, from which an average box was selected and the number of berries therein counted, which was seven. The largest one was by actual measure ment lUg inches ground the waist, and big all over in. proportion. If Saleim has any really big straw berries let her trot them out, or if not quit boasting. If there is any doubt as to the correctness of these statements the affidavits of three prominent business men who helped measure them will be forthcoming. FUNERAL OF RET. J. W. HARRIS. Rev. James W. Harris, formerly pastor of the Congregational church in this city, was buried yesterday afternoon in the family lot in the Albany cemetery. He died at his nome in Salem Thurs day evening at t7 o'clock. The funeral services were held at his house in Salem Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, eonducted fey Rev. P. S. Knight and Rev. Anselm B. Brown, Mr. Harris' successor in the Congregational church. There was a very large attendance. The address by Mr. Knight was most appropriate and fall of thought that was comforting and helpful to all that heard it. Prof. Parvin and his choir rendered music and Miss Ilallie Parrish sang a solo. The remains were brought up to Albany on the noon train and taken to the Congregational church where a large couereiration of old friends and acquaintances assem bled at half-past two. Rev. Anselm B.Brown,of Salem, who came up with the family, con ducted the services and gave a brief account of Mh Harris' "life. Mr. Harri3 was born in Corn wall, England, jrf 1831, and was left an orphans the age oi eight years, no. .wr- vuua . one to a farmer in the (neighborhood, and, by him he was brought i he was brougnt to thisTRobbeis, supposed to be tramps, country to Wisconsin at the early age of 12 years. He had had no advantages at all and he made a great struggle to get some educa tion. At the age of 18 he yielded to the claims of God upon his life and became a member of the Con gregational church in Union Grove, Wisconsin ; he at once turned all his energies to the preparation for the work of the gospel ministry. His college li e was at Beloit, Wis consin. Although his peor health prevented him from studying the ology, yet the ministers who knew him urged him to take the pastorate of a church. With great reluc tance he yielded to their requests and to the wishes of the people who had heard him much in prayermeetings and revivals. He cemmenced his work in the min istry in the spring of 1800. He labored six years with the church in Grand Rapids, Wiscon- sin, 12 years with the church in Evansville, Wisconsin. His health became very poor, and he came to Oregon, preaching one year in The Dalles, 6 years here in Albany and two and a half years in Salem, be sides doing much fragmentary work at intervals in mission churches. Rev. Mr. Harris loved his de nominatioB, and lie was held in the highest esteem by the brethren with whom he was intimately associated in the Congregational body, yet he had a fraternal spirit for all ministers of the gospel and was dearly beloved by all the pas tors in every place where he lived. He held tho confidence, respect and love of the Deople, anu his re lations with all have been those of harmony and abiding friendship. During his last sickness Mr. Harris gave abundant testimony U the power and efficiency of the gospel of Christ to comfort and sustain the believer when all else fails. At one time he said, "If I could have strength to preach again I could do so much more tiian I have done. I have be lieved, but now I kaow." Rev. Mr. Brown was followed by Rev. Mr. Rogers, pastor of the church, who read appropriate se lections of scriptures and led in prayer. The choir sang another hymn and then Rev.. Dr. Irvine spoke upon the text, "I shall be satisfied when awake in his like ness," a favorite verse to Mr. Harris. The address was a worthy tribute to one who was a faitlif ul minister of the gospel. j After prayer and another hymn the remains were viewed. The local pastors, who were at the train,also acted as pall bearers. Mr. Harris had three daugh ors. one a missionary, who is buried in Japan, another rests in the family lot where he was buried yesterday, and one is left to mourn the loss of a loving father. At the age of 58 years, 28 of which were spent in the ministry, his work on earth is done. He had clear views of doctrine, and preached plainly and earnestly. He was deeply interested in home mission work and in carrying the gospel to heathen lands. He ever bore a mild, even, Christian spirit, and when in circumstances that would troubie and vex others, he seemed by his peaceful and happy disposition to bear in mind the in junction of the Psalmist, "Fret not thyself." His many qualities in heart and mind has endeared him to multitudes and made his life a blessing to this 'world. His willingness in youth to yield to the calls of God suggests a noble les son to poor boys of to-day. The Chicago Comedy Company. This excellent company conclud ed a successful week's engagement in this city last evening, playing Queen's Evidence to a large audience. The company have be come general favorites here, and are certainly entitled to the success thev have gained. The managers are gentlemanly and the company has given duriDg the week a series of clean, keenly enjoyable plays, which, together with the popular prices of admission, has resulted in large audiences being accorded them during their entire stay in this city. From here the company will go to Eugene to open a week's engagement. Good Investment.
