Well Pleased. The Review in the
last year, since our January number lias
brought quite a number of persons to Douglas
county, and so far we have yet to leam of any
one being dissatisfied with the representation
we gave it in our descriptive number.
Trees! Trees!! Trees!!! -Call at Chase

variety of silver prunes raised on trees which

county will study their own interest by buying
their fruit trees of this enterprising firm.
A Burglar. A tramp entered the house
of Hon. W. F. Owens last Wednesday eve
ning, and went through all the rooms, taking
Mr. Owens' pants, and finding nothing there
in left them thrown on the floor, thence he
went to the girls room and took Miss Eflie's
$100 gold watch and chain, a fine gold ring,
etc., etc., and left lor parts unknown.
Strange as it may appear, yet not one in the
house woke tip orlaicw anything about it un
til morning.

Statesman. "
Band Stand. The Band stand in the
court house yard is a splendid structure, not
a dollar is owing on it, Salem plays twice a
week in her band stand, ours was built by the
citizens of Roseburg for the luxury of band
music, "the harvest is past, and the summer
is ended"', and but very few toots have we
had. This ought not to be thus. Wake up
ye shades of Mozart, and Beethoven, and let
the minstrelsy of our native sons at least, be
heard floating out upon the autumnal evening
breezes How delightful to be charmed by the
musical vibrations which our boys can pro
duce. Come boys, what say you?
Roseburg Reform Club. Meeting

usual opening exercises, Mr. C. A. Sehlbrede
of Oakland was introduced, he spoke at some
length on temperance and Prohibition, clearly
defining his position on the third party qucs
tion. Mr. Sehlbrede is true blue and no
mistake. The election of officers for next sis
months being in order the following persons
were nominated and duly elected . President;
J W. Mullen; Vice Presidents, B. F. Ramp,
Miss Cawlfield, MissEffie Owens; Secretary,

No School House. The rrineville News
says that Frincville, the county scat of Crook
county, Oregon, has no school house, no
school director;, no school district organi
zation. But it has two newspapers, both of
which have battled for months to arouse the
people to a sense of their situation and ex
claimed, "How long, O Lord, how long!"
It would be perhaps more to the .purpose to
make direct appeal to the taxpayers to rem
edydefects so glaring. - There is an old say-
' ing and a true one that the "Lord helps those
who help themselves.
The above is a fine picture of Roseburg we
heard some one suggest. Ed.

A Phenomena. Mr. Hall Hoffman who
I has just returned from Linkville informs us
that some workmen who were getting out
rock for the new jail at that place noticed
immediately after a blast " that steam was is
suing from the crevices in the rocks. No at-
tention however was paid to this circumstance
and another blast was set off when immedi
ately a Ions; streak of fire shot up in the air
w hich alarmed the workman very much. The
fact that a number of boiling springs are to
be found near this locality may assist some of
our scientific scholars who will volunteer an
explanation.
Scarcely had we written the above when
a gentleman gave us the following explana
tion: "There was doubtless" said he, "a body
of gas. confined in the rocks and when the
blast went ofl it set fire to the gas and con
sumcd it." Had it remained and continued
to increase, it would doubtless have resulted
in a one-horse earthquake. In view of this
explanation we would advise our friends in
I Linkville not to do as the people of Charleston
j have done, wait until the danger is over be
fore suphcating forgiveness of their sins, they
i should commence before hand and have the
i account settled before the heavy dun comes.

ter, but it does agree that every possible pre
caution shall be taken to prevent its loss.

may have been addressed, j

I A Bible for Women.
Some New Jersey women who themselves
vouch fof the truth of the statesman that they
are very learned, have lately united in the
work of producing a woman s revision of the
bible. These religious bhte-stockings claim
that the bilile.translations have always been
made by men, and that men s predjudices
are apparant in the results of their work.
They find that about one-tenth of the bibles
touches in .one way or another on women,
and they propose to see whether they have
been treated fairly by the male revisers.

Letter Sheet Envelope.
The postmaster-general is introducing for
sale at the principal postoffices what is called
"the United States- letter sheet envelope."
which is a unique device for correspondence
through the mails. It is a combination in
one of a letter sheet, envelope and the new
postage stamp of the denomination of two
cents, bearing the military portrait of Gen.
Grant. They will be sold at rate of twenty
three dollars per thousand, in any desired
quantities, ser-aratcly or in packages or pads
of twenty-five, fifty or a hundred each, or
folded in encased packages of twenty-five each,
especially for use when traveling. This is a
great improvement on the postal card as it
affords privacy with, equal haudincss and con
venience. It would seem as though the com
bined letter sheet and; envelope is destined tb
become an immediate and " lasting favorite
with the public. j

Burglary.
Last Tuesday morning sometime after mid
night a man entered the residence of Judge
R. S. Strahan on Calipooia street, by opening
a window and going to the Judge's room on
the second floor, took possession of his pants,
which he carried to the hall below, rifled them
oi about $85 in money, and left them on the
floor, leaving the place by the front door.
Tracks in the wet grass showed that it had
been done since the dew fell, probably towards
morning. No clue to the robber has been
obtained. It is certain, though, that he is a
bad man, and all bad men these lively railroad
building days should be watched. Albany

Editor- Roseburg Review: Although
differ from you as a partisan I am
willing to confess that your views on many
questions as you express them in your valuable
paper both as to state and national policy, are
in exact keeping with my own thoughts and
feelings, and above all I do admire your fair,
open aad candid manner of handling all ques
tions, and I have no doubt but that the course
you arc pursuing will draw well minded men
to you, and also that the beautiful town of Ros
burg will receive much benefit from your
learned thoughts. - What Oregon needs every
where and the whole North Pacific coast as to
that matter, is more liberal ideas one towards
another, as far as locality is concerned, know
ing as we should that the building up of one
section ol our country only adds to the pros
perity of another, and I might add every other
section. Let us suppose for a moment that
the flourishing town of Roseburg had direct
railroad communication with the Pacific ocean
at the nearest practical point, and that those
should then be extended eastward railroad en
terprise until united with some great line pul
sating from the Atlantic coast making a through
line cast and west passing through your city,
then great developments would follow all
along the line and yet it would augment the
general prosperity of all other sections. Does
Baltimore, Philadelphia, Boston or Bangor,
harm New York? or do they all combined hurt
Chicago or New Orleans? Live and let live
and help each other is the true doctrine, and
why should not this be also truj of party.
1 he I ighcr the standard of any party the better
it is for all citizens, and a .general feeling of
good will one toward another is the best token
of an enlightened age. Yours Truly,
C. A. Reed.

A Gentle Stimulus,
Is imparled to the kidneys and bladder by
Hostettcr's Stomach Bittters, which is most
useful in overcoming torpidity of these organs.
Besides infusing more activity into them, this
excellent tonic endows them with additional
vigor, and enables them the better to undergo
the wear and tear of the discharging function
imposed upon them by nature. Moreover, as
they are the channel for the escape of certain
impurities from the blood, increase their use
fulness by strengthening and healthfully stim
ulating them. In certain morbid conditions of
these important organs, they fall into a slug
c, wrucn 1 ine usual percursor of
disease. What then can be oi greater service
than a medicine which impels them to greater
activity when slothful? : No maladies are more
perilous than those which affect the kidneys,
and a medicine which aveits the peril should
be highly esteemed.

the assurance that in no other village of the

Child Killed.
Union, Sept. 10.
A sad and fatal accident occurred this
morning about 9 o'clock at the residence of
Mr. John M. Phy, near Cove, Union county,
resulting in the death of Johnny, his li-year-old
son. Mr. Phy had gone to Union on bus
iness. But a short time before the aeeulmt
Mrs. Phy, observing a loaded pistol lying
on the bureau, removed it for safety's sake to
one of the drawers. The little boy, in search
ing for some article in the drawer, unaccount
ably discharged the pistol, the ball entering
ohnny's forehead and passing entirely through
the brain. He expired in about twenty min
utes after the shot. Mr. Phy is a prominent
and one of the pioneer citizens of Union coun
ty, and he and his wife have the sincere sym
pathy of the entire community.
