Oregon State Directory.
Mr. By non, of Myrtle Creek, Is in
town, getting information for his new
State directory. Tue book is to em.
brace about 500 pages, and will, if
completed according to the proposed
plan, be an excellent work of refer
ence for business and professional
men, and indeed all interested in the
advancement of Oregon. Each city
aud town iu the State will be so com
pletely, written up as to show at a
glance Its agricultural, manufacture
ng, mercantile and other facilities.
A general directory of every resident
of Portland, and a complete business
directory of all other towns will be
given. The churches, schools, so
cieties, hotelx, newspapers and lead
ing business firms will be so fully de
scribed that persons in any part of
the Slate can see just what the ad
vantage are pertaining to- any town
in Oregou. Toe work will circulate
not only throughout the State, but in
California, aud wherever tbe trade ot
Oregon is desired, copies of the Mate
directory are sure to find their way.
Mr. By non will canvass Roseburg for
subscribers and advertisements, iu a
day or two; a little liberality on tbe
part of our merchants and others will
give the town a business standing,
which is sure to be of substantial ad
vantage to us. A haudsome map of
the State, mounted on rollers, and
corrected up to date, will accompany
each book, making it a complete in
dex to Ofiron i' very particular.
Wo it uu i4Uthquake?
Mr. W.lliam Xrask and others tell
us of a finirular occurmnce iu tbe
waters f tbe North Umpqua last
week. In the morning the water wai as
clear a a bell. At 11 o'clock the river
turned to a dark yellowish color, and
was mixed with sand aud clay, and iu
every way presented tbe appearance of
a stream at the head of which exten
sive miuing was being done. Those
living on tbe river thought perhaps
Mr. Dillard oo Steamboat had turned
loose his sluices; but as men above
Patterson's mill came down aud re
ported the river clear at that point,
the idea was abandoned. Everybody
was more perplexed when the stream
cleared itself in a matter of three
or
four hours. It is geuerally
believed .hat there was ao immense
land-slide into the stream from some
mountain near Tipton's mill, or thai
there was au earthquake. Who will
tell what was the trouble. -
Testimonials.
Independence, Dec. IS, 1879.
Both myself and wife have been for
some years afflicted with disease
of the kidneys, r ud had (ried many
remedies witb if obtaining perma
nent relief. j bout three months ago
we were induct to try a package of
the Oregon Kidney Tea, which has
apparently entirely cured both of us,
at since taking it two weeks we felt no
symptoms of the disease. We can
heartily recommend it to others simi
larly afflicted, as we believe it will do
all that is claimed for it.
M. L. White.
V Astoria, Dec. 28. 1879.
: I take pleasure in testifying to the
merits of the Oregon Kidney Tea. For
the past three years I have been suf
; feriug from kidney troubles, and du
ring the time bve tried nearly every
kind of kidney medicine In the mar
ket, almost, without any relief. Hav
lug heard that the Oregon Kidney Tea
possessed wonderful properties, I pur
chased a package, and from the first
dose obtained relief, and by the use of
the oue package wag completely
cured.

THE FIKJE AT GARDINER.
Many Families Left Destitute.
We herewltn give an extract from
a letter received by Sheriff Hogan on
Thursday evening from Uardiuer. The
letter was dated July 28th : .
On the evening of tbe 26tb at half
past five o'clock, fire broke out in one
of the buildings belonging to Hins
dale A Co.'s mill, and, the wlud blow
ing a gale from NX. W, the flames
were soon communicated to the main
part or town, destroying all of tbe
main business houses and private res
idences. The fire spread with such
rapidity that most all of tbe household
goods went wiih the buildings. Tbe
following named persons sustained
losses as follows: Hinsdale A Co., three
dwelling, $1,000; J. C. McCue, house
hold goods, $700; Mrs. R. Nicholson,
dwelling and furniture, $1,030; Capt.
Leeda, dwelling and furniture, $2,500;
E. IL Burchard, store aud merchan
dise. $4,3iX); J. C. Veld, dwelling, $400;
Dr Brown, store, drug etc., $2,300; J.
Graham, dwelling and household fur
niture, $1,600; John Grills, dweUing
and store, $1,200; Reid A Nelson, ha
loou and fixtures, $3 '0; Masonic Hall
and furniture, Stiaoolhouse and furni
ture, $1,800; L. Lock wood, hotel and
furniture, $800; Peter Roda. dwelling,
$900; W. D McGee, household goods,
and furniture, $7,500; G. Symore. rest
deuce, $1,000; C. Smith, dwelling and
furniture, $650; J. J.Kronholm, dwell
ing, hotel and bar, $6,000; Peter Nel
son, dwelling and furniture, $3,000;
Mr. I.'eid, household goods, $700; W.
Pitt, household goods, $500: A. M. and
R, W. Simpson, saw-mill, dwellings
and shops, $40,000. There are a great
many more losses of which I am not
fully acquainted, but the whole will
aggregate an actual lo.-sofat least $74,-
700. A committee will be appointed
to-night to secure ial distribute pu6
lie charities. You can see by this that
no small number of U6 are left home
less and almost penniless. Among
the list there are a few families that
are left entirely destitute.
The people of Douglas county are
known abroad for their generosity
Let them now show their kindness.. It
will be impossible for those whom the
Are in Gardiner has left something yet
to provide for the actual wants of
those who have been left nothing. We
would advise that a committee be ap
pointed at once to solicit subscrip
tions, and that the money be ap
plied to the relief of those in need.
