A Crazy Chinaman.
Considerable excitement wa occasioned
Tuesday by the report that one of tho Chi
namen at work at the Cei'tennial hotel had
suddenly become crazy. Ho has shown
signs of not being just right for some time
and on Tuesday morning quit work, pro
ceeded to the wash house, armed himself
with a pistol and scted in a very trange
manner. Tho other Chinaman became
alarmed and informed the marshal of the
actions of the celestial. When the officer
went to arrest him. however, ho was found
to be secreted in an outhouse, where ho
had been for some time, armed with the
pistol, and It wii not a very desirable job
to tackle him in this condition, as fears
were entertained that he might shoot any
one attempting to enter the building.
Marshal Johnson secured the help of Mel
Heritage and, in company with a China
man, cautiously proceeded to tho house,
opened the door suddenly and rushed in
on him. He raised his pistol and attempted
to shoot, but the otlleers were two quick
for him and immediately caught his arm
and disarmed him. He was hiindcullcd
and taken to the county jail. When caught
he immediately set up a most unearthly
howl and kept it up.until lodged in the cell.
The other Chinamen seem to think he Is
onlv sick and will be all right in a few (lavs.

Tho Microbe Killer.
State Food Cominisoner Baker has had
a chemical anlysis made of the microbe
killer, a patent medicine. The analysis
was made by the state chemist. ''It
shows,' said Mr. Baker, "that one gallon
of tho liquid contains 11.7 grains of hydro
chloric acid, 1.33 grains of muriatic scid,
15,79 grains of nitric acid, and sulphuric
acid, or oil of vitriol, :i.S drains by weight.
The microbe killer, when heated with me
tallic nine, dissolves tho r.lnc. The amount
of zinc that would (theoretically) be dis
solved by one gallon of microbe killer is
about 2 dr. 11.!) grains; or, in other words,
one gallon of the liquid known as tho
microbe killer contains enough free acid to
dissolve tnc amount of zinc that I have
mentioned. Unless the agent of the mi
crobe killor In this city complies with the
law within a very short time I shall be
obliged to arrest him for selling the drug.
The law retpiires that tho article shall bo
so marked that alt people who buy it may
know its contents, and the microbe killer is
not sold that way at present. The agent
sells it in jugs without labeling it so as to
show its chemical ingredients." Oregoni- j
