The editor of an exchange who
probably knows whereof he speaks,
says: A good way to raise turkeys for
Thanksgiving is to take a long scant
ling or pole, with a cross-piece on the
end; warm the cross-piece; goto your
neighbor's roost; place the cross-piece
eently beneath and touching the turk's
feet. The turk will respond by "rais
ing" and decending on the warm
stick and there's your turkey. Look
out for dogs and shotguns.

would shield Mrs. Watson by taking
Gould but and hanging him to a lamp
post.

- The- secretary who records the

draw $10 a day of the people's : money

one of the few men who get into office
that believes an officer should be paid
according to the service he renders,
hence if he has a say in fixing the pay
of tbe secretary it will be about what
a competent scribe could get working
for a private individual.

Job Ban It Settlement.
The Corvallis Times says that after-
three and one-half years of waitirg,
creditors of the Job bank are now to
learn exactly what per cent they are to

the assignment. Assignee Bryson filed
with the court yesterday afternoon his
final report in the case, and the docu
ment winds up with a request for au
thonty tp be granted the assignee to
pay a final dividend of ten andone-balf
per cent. The assignee has now on
nanos 9zz.wz.B0 in cash, besides cer
tain amounts to be required in paying
the expenses of final settlement of thu
assignment, and this amount is just
sufficient to pay the dividend for whose
payment authority is sought This
dividend will make tbe total amount
that creditors will receive on their
claims, 401 per cent, or forty and one-
. V 1 ...
nan cents on me dollar. - it talis nine
and one-half cents ahqrt of the fifty
per cent required by law in order to
relieve Job brothers of liability for the1
debts of the partnership, and it is said
a few creditors have expressed a de
termination to take judgment.

A story is told of a young lady wbo
found a package of love letters that had
been written to ber mother by her
father before tbey were married. The
daughter saw that they could have a
little sport and read them to her
mother, substituting ber own name
for thatof ber mother, and a fine young
man for that of her father. The mother
jumped up and down, shifted her feet.
and seemed terribly disgusted, and for
bade ber daughter to have anything to
do with the young man who could write
such sickling nonsensical stuff to a
girl. When tbe young lady ' handed
the letter to her mother to read the
bouse became so still that one could
hear thft grass growing. .
. Don't Be alarmed.
' Although winter is setting In at least
a month earlier than common, thre is
no cause at present for alarm. It is an
old saying that an early winter brings
an early spring, and no doubt this will
come true, as regards' tbe wi n ter of 96-
97. 4. Even if.it doer not, farmers'and
k r1"e, throughout Eastern Ore-
gon are well prepared for a long win
ter. They have prepared largo quan
tities of provender for their 6 took, as
la shown by the big hay ricks all over
the country, and if mother earth shall
be covered with snow for three or four
months, there is an abundance of ieed
to keep stock from perishing, hence
vere little loss is anticipated. Even
should the present storm continue
until the first of March, which is im
probable, there will be little loss of
ock.
The whole system is drained and un
dermined by indolent ulcers and open
sores. De itt's Witch Hazle Salve
speedily heals them. It is the best pile

Last Monday Mrs. S. A. Davenport
was examined before Jude Mays by
Dr. Hollister, and was adjudged insane.
For some time Mrs. Davenport has
been a student of the theory of Chris
tian science, and being of rather an
imaginative disposition, allowed her
self to become thoroughly imbued with
the idea that she was capable of heal
ing all human ills, ''casting out devils,"
etc. Her mind gave way under the
terrible strain to which it was sub
jected, and yesterday she became a
raving maniac. ' Her condition is in
deed pitiable, and it is doubtful it her
reason will ever be restored. She was
taken to the asylum Tuesday.
