so that a'ter the supply ol these mints' is

The whole time, . therefore, necessary to
coin the seigniorage is approximately
two years and two moo'b's.

A Return of a Wanderer, .
Last fall two boys conceived the idea that
they would try the world for themselves,
and between two days took French leave of
parents and relatives aod took the direction
towards California. They managed to steal
rides on trains without having to reimburse
the railroad- company for conveyance, and
fioally reached Southern California where'
tbey did whatever they oould fiod to do.
Piecing oranges gave them easy if not prof
itable employ ment for some time, and they
tried to manfully earn a livelihood. But
this way of living soon becsme monotonous,
and they began to pine for .the home fireside
and the comforts and care of the piternal
hearth.. Last night, one of the boys,' Bin
Wagooblast, returned, and be is a veritable
hero for the time being witb his com
panions. He has strange stories to tell of
adventures in the wonderful southland, and
considers himself competent to bsttle with
tbe ills to which flesh is heir. Bis next
journey will be towsrds the sound, and his
destination at present is tbe great and
growing citv of Seattle. He laft the other
boy in Redding, Calif., and it is not known
when he will come back.
-Tbe Populists.
The mass-meeting of the Populists, held
this afternoon in the court bouse, was
largely attended by Republicans and Dem
ocrats, wbo managed t infuse considerable
enthusiasm into tb se p-esent. Mr. AL
Reese was chosen chairman, and the first
speaker was a young man named Kerns.
He was followed by Mr. W. J. Peddicord,
who in a sp ecb of considerable length gave
publicity to the ideas of which the party
claim to be adherents. Mr. Peddicord is
from Sherman county, and L quite a fluent
talker. After the adjournment of tbe
meeting a Populist club was formed of sev
eral members, of which J. W. Elton was
choeen. pre ident, W." H. Taylor vice pres
ident and John Appl-gate' secretary and
treasurer. A banner with the picture of a
salmon and another device, with the motto:
'Ciola, s lver and greenbacks should not be
demonetized" was displayed in the hall.
Fighting" for Freedom.
A CoTvallis paper says that the Oregon
Pacific train fiom Albany yesterday had an
unwelcome and unwilling passenger. He
was a tall, handsome young man, and from
indulgence in cocaine and morphine was as
wild and reasonless as an untamed beast.
It required two strong men constantly to
hold him, and when the west si le stopped
to receive bim from the Oregon Pacific at
the crosiog nor h of town it was all that
four, men could do to make the transfer
The dement d man fought, kicked and
struggled vainly to scape his keepers. An
eye wi ne&s describes the scene as a terrible
s ght. The west side took him to the
Keeley Institute at Forest Grove. His
name could not be learned.

Salmon Trout.
Fishing for salmon trout in Mill creek
furnishes considerable amusement to oar
citizens not otherwise en ployed. ' From
early morning nntil late at night-very
many visit the stream with lines aod pole,
and wait pttiently for "bites." Occasion
ally success attend their efforts, and when
it does they are amply rewarded for their
trouble. Fish ' eighteen inohes long bay
been pulje-l out of the wster,' and thesa
make a vary palatihie meat. Yesterday
was a V3ry favorable time, and, notwith-'
standing the holiness of the day, ws are in
formed 'by a spectator that several very
tine trout were caught with book sod line.
The close season for monntiin trout will not
be over until the 1st of next month; but in'
the meantime the silvery salmon will be
deluded into the sportsman's basket, aod
catching these will stimulate him to greater,
'exertions when the speckled beauties begin .
to course their tortuous way np our streams.
Salmon are considered a royal nsh in some '
Country, and. in. -the Uoi ted States where
eyery man is a king, they become the prop
erty of bim who is fortunate enough to land
bim from his native element.

J ' Eugeoe'Gnard. -
A sad accident occurred on" Mill oreek, a
branch of the Mohawk , river, twenty miles,
from Eugene, Thursday, March 15, about 1
o'clock in the afternoon. Wm. Crawford,
ths nnfortnoato victim," was sngaged help
ing Wood k Lilly on a drive of 1,500,000
feet of logs for the Harrisburg mill. The
water in Mill creek was very high and tha
ourrent strong. -The loggers Were employed
bresking a jam at an old drift. The logs
started, and a long log shot out on ths bank
just above a tree. The moving logs eaoght
tbe cod remaining in tbs creek and swung
tbe other end rapidly tip the bank, the tree
forming a fulcrum. Crawford was standing
on tbe bank and was oaught by tha log aod
carried along to a drift above, where his
bead was caught between tbe log and drift,
crushing bis skull and killing him almost
instantly. - A companion standing near
caught his legs and saved the body from
being swept into the stream. Crawford was
30 years of age, and leaves a wife and four
children. Ha was ao industrious mm and
highly respected by bis neighbors.
Gardening
Last week several of our citizens begin
gardening, and 'around the dwellings of
many of our residents the grass is green and
Bowers are budding. The little flurry o
snow Saturdsy night did no injury to vege

and made roads not in as good eondition as
they were. In a few days of pleasant
weather plants and flowers will begin to
grow, and Tbs Dalles will lesd all other
cities io the state in ths beauty of iU sur
roundings. Tbe season is extremely baok-
turd tbii vear, aod before now tbe flowers
in yards should be in full bloom if tha nsoal
conditions had prevailed. Bat snow fell
frequently after l0"1 ot February, and
even after St. Patrick's day, ihe ground was

A Sad Ending.
A charivari party in Camas Valley last
Sunday night bad a sad ending, says tha
Roseborg Review. It had been organised
out of a love for fun by quite a crowd of
young men and boys to giye the newly mar
ned couples there a good "send off," and
before tbev lett the last plsoe visited in the
upper 'end of the valley, it was 2 o'clock in
tha morning. The crowd had separated,
two yonng men, Thrash and Eites, going
home by themselves. As they were crossing
the bridge near the upper school bouse
Eites made a misstep in the darkness, and
fell' into tha swollen creek, disappearing
from his companion's sight. Thrush gsva
the slsrm and a thorough search was insti
tuted, but at last reports received from the
valley the body had not been recovered.
Ed Eites, the unfortunate victim, was about
18- years old, aud his parents reside in tbs
yslley. It was a sad aooident.
