His intimate acquaintance with this section of the countrj , a well as In .character for reliability, eminently qualities him for the business. Frank Noble, of Fluke & Noble, millers, purchased of N. Larout last week on thou sand bushfls of wheat. We are requested notto mention tho price, but it wa3 quite enough to justify wheat growing in this county if it could be secured every year. Decoration day was not observed in this county, as there seemed to be no especial occ;.3ion for "it. We learn that there will be an effcrt made to establish a post of the G. A. Pi. at this ilace, which we thiuk i3 quite as unnecessary. A card from the front from J. E. Geddis informs us that the Chinese on tha strike continue to hold out.

The strawberry festival at Marks' hall oa Wednesday evening, for the benefit of the Presbyterian church, was a success socially and iiaancially.

There appears to ba quite an excitement' among the railroad men on the southern ex tension, the exact cause of which we are not permitted to disclose. In this connection however, we may state that a libel suit has been commenced by Chas. A- F. Morris, Chief Engineer of the O. & C railroad, against the Tolaris, for an article published ia that paper several weeks since. J- T. Flynn, agent for the North West News, gavo us a pleasant call on Wednesday last.

Broker M. C. Miller is with us once more. He ia somewhat improved in health, but we are sorry to say that his condition is such that he is suable to resume his labors at present. Mrs. Miller has had a severe at tack of pneumonia since leaving Roseburg, but has nearly recovered her usual health. She is stopping at ier father's, Mr. Patter son, in Albany. The oitizsns of Roseburg have waited un til a late day for some other town in the coantv to take steps for the proper celebra tion of our National Anniversary, and no movement having been made in this direc tion, concluded to invite their neighbors to come hers. The committees appointed at the meeting, which appear in Another place, ensure a successful result. It will be a sad day for tne Union when its citizens neglect to celebrate the anniversary of its birth, the Fourth of July. ; His Excellency Governor Moody has made the following executive appointments in the Oregon State militia; Hon Chris.

New Bank.- The Douglas County Bank opened for the transaction f business Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock. Their advertisement appears elsewhere in our columns. This institution sup plies a want long felt in this commu nity. Messrs.

The Civ nit court was occupied noarly "all of 'ust week in the trial f James Beckley, charged with murder for killing Heniy C. Levins, which resulted in an acquit tal. Had we the space we would pub lish the entire evidence. Sad as were thci facts of the homicide the evidence fully justf ties the verdict. The prin cipal facts established on the trial were all proven before Justice Benedict, on the preliminary bearing, and when he refused to admit the defendant to bail it was a surprise to every one present We are not inclined to find fault with magistrates who act conscientiously in the discbarge ef their duty, nor do we claim that Mr; Benedict was not sin cere in this matter. But he showed a want of judgment that utterly disqual ified him for the "position he holds His unwai ranted action in ihis matter entailed thousands of dollars expense upon the connty, besides the expense, misery and suffering to the defendant and his famUy and all for no purpose. Mrs. Sexton, accompanied by her son, Frank Niday passed through the city last Monday, en th air way to Coos Bay to visit the family of Grundy Owens, whose child was so severely injuied a short time since.

Martin, Committee. Hiss Millard. We give the following sketch of Miss Wiliard and her work, by request f the Roseburg W. C. T. U. : Miss Francis E. Wiliard is of New England parentage, her parents being natives of Vermont. She is now Pres ident of the National Womar's Christ ian Temperance Union, and has held the position for nearly four yeai 3 past, having been unani mously re-elected at Louisville by dele gates from thirty Statss. She is a highly educated lady, a graduate of an ! Eastern college, and has studied in Pin- is and traveled extensively t'itou Lurope. After returning to the United States she Was President of the Woman's College at Evaruton (the leading suburb of Chicago), and editor of the Chicago Post,, having, taken charge of that paper on the death of her brother, 'who was its editor until his death. Miss Wiliard and her broth er's wife took editorial charge of the paper and displayed a high order of tal ent in its conduct. After retiring from editorial work she took the field as a lecturer in the temperance cause, and worked with Mr. Moody for a tiue in Gospel temperance work in the city of Boston. While engaged with Mr. Moody she met Miss Goidon, her effi cient secretary. Miss Gordon is a na tive of Massachusetts, the dans-lite" of a former treasurer of the American Missionary Board. Miss Willard's object in coming to California and Oregon is to strengthen the work already done and assist in every way in advancing Christian tem perance work. She also comes by the unanimous invitation of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, the Good Templars, and is heartily endorsed by all Protestant churches. Previous to starting on thi3 trip to the Paeific, she made a teur of the Southern States, audi received a perfect ovation frdm the j people of every town ind cityf ; Which she visited, and was entertained in the families of such people as Governor iquiLi,,ui ureuigia, me presidents oi :u c "i colleges, and persons of the highest so cial distinction. She advocates total abstinence for the individual and pro hibition for the State. ELDORADO SP.RINGS. To all persons suffering with any nasal ca' tarrh affection of the throat or stomach, I will str.te that last Fall that myself and mem bers of my family were suffering with ca tarrh in the head and myself with an affec tion of the stomach. That I purchased a galon of the mineral water taken front the spring on the South Umpqua, 3 miles west of Rosehurg, of G. M. Jones, Dr. Hamilton agent, and can testify that both myself and family have received great benefits from its use. My sou Andrew Willis waS" suffering very much from nasal catarrh and by the use of this water has entirely recovered and is now well. I can unhesitatingly oni- mend it as the best medicine I have used, in my family for any of the above named com plaints. ' Rev. W. A. Willis. The Electric Belt.- The Duplex Galvanic Belts, being sold here this week by G. A. Hubbell and sister, are giving entire satisfaction, quite a num ber -being sold.

He can give comfort and re creation to those who are devoted to the billiard room. Uncle Nat. Mitchel is also prepared to do likewise.

Beals, aud now little trouble is realized in drawing on the black-boards. Last Sunday, Grandma Card well was over visiting relatives and friends. Though in her senility, she is yet lively and pleasant. S. B. Hutson, whose death was re corded in your columns last week, had many friends on Day's Creek. May his congenial spirit rest in peace.

W. has a nice pic- tare gallery there. " Gunpowder Plot-" Word comes to U3 of an attempt n the part of some youths to blow up a score or mere of school childrefi in one of the rural districts. -The road hands had been using giant powder, near the school house, to clear the public road of obstructions and left a quantity of powder in a can on the works. Some three or four boys belangi ug to the school, perhaps more thoughtless than wicked, succeeded in putting a blast in the road where a large num ber of the little children had to pass in going to their home, and when school Was dismissed in the evening ran ahead ef the other scholars and lighted their fuse, intending an explosion when the children should arrive at the point of dange.-. Luckily for all concerned, he fuse failed to burn a? readily as ex pected, when the modern Guy Fawkes, the leader of the plot, seeing from his am bush the scholars pass in safety, re turned to see what had caused his fail- ure, when the blast exploded, tearing off a piece of the youth's cheek and nose. The pedagogue in charge learn ing of the attempt to injure the little children, ferreted out the plotters and administered to the young conspirators chastisement, which it is to be hoped will make them mors thoughtful for the safety of others.
