/ strnmi ITEMIZES. , SAT U R DA Y, JONE IT, 18M. AT Wl Tit* following, taken from th* Yeqnina Bay Poet o f June 7th, in* dicetea that work ia still progressing on the Oregon Pacifio Railroad: The new »«rehouses and docks u - u . are completed. Work on the “ fill” just in tne rear of the docks, is being pushed forward at a fair rate, and Supt. Roswell will soon hare a apace sufficiently large to construct machine shops and round-house thereon. Master Mechanic Rob erts has constructed six dump tcre, -which are being used by the grading forces advantageously. He is now engaged in building twenty flat cars to form the ‘ soon to be needed’ con struction trains. Graders are at work on the Wiser cut situated be tween the Co's docks and Oneatta. This is probably as deep if not the deepest out on the road; being about sixty feet. Last Wednesday on our way to this place, we visited one of the tunnels—No. 1 from the Bay. A large amount of dirt had to be re moved before the tunnel proper commenced. We were informed by the bosses that the work of boring into the mountain would begin in a day or two. Sandstone, of a shelly nature, makes the progress rather slow. Drilling the boles for the blasts in the stone is done by band. The tunnels will be 16 feet wide by 22 feet high, and as n matter of course a large amount of rock and dirt will have to bo removed. Dump carsare ready upon the ground to be used as the work progresses in the tunnel. It is the intention of the contractor to run three shifts of men, eight hours each at both ends of the tunnel. On tho end of ths work from the Bay, we found a force of 35 Chinamen and just over the mountain to the other side found 20 more, all the force that could be used to an advautago. We did not visit the tunnels near the Summit, ns we came in on the Little Klk road, thus leaving tho tunnels several miles to the right, but learn that the work is progressing under very favorable circumstances. m iiir r m « by a b x u b a m ». The value of a uniform in quelling riot and insurrection is illustrated by an event which occurred between Air Drov an'1 Brodbead last week. It se e m s that the haqda ft gravel ‘ rain st.ru for higher wages, and the railroad folka would not accede t the deinaud. The hands wanted Monroe, free of „ first traiu that came along wai freight, with a caboose, and in tho caboose was the Monroe cornet band, on the way home from a concert they had given at Brodhead. Tho train was stopped by tho strikers, when the cornet player put his horn ont of the window and sounded the cavalry call of "Boots and Baddies,” and that woke up the band boys, who were asleep in the caboose, and they rushed out on the platform, rubbing their eyes, to see what was up. The strikers saw tho glittering uniform, nod it at once occurred to the leader that the Governor had ordered out the State militia. It teemed to the strikers as though there were n hundred thousand armed men, and believing the shooting would cora- meuce at once, they took to the woods and left the train to go about its business. One big striker that had talked a good deal with his mouth when ho saw a bass drum pointed at him got behind a stump and fainted. This is the first fight the Monroe baud has been in, aud it is said they covered themselves with glory.—St Paul l’ ionoer Press. K A correspondent sends the follow ing calculations with regard to the reputed wealth of William H Van derbilt: Estimating it at $300,000,- 000, to count it, at the rate of $2 each second and ten boura n day, it would take 11 yearH, 151 days, 5 hours, and 40 minutes. In gold it would weigh 781 tons und 500 pounds, re quiring a train of 69 cars of 10 tons capacity to move it; in silver, 10,714 tons and571 pounds, requiring l.O^a cars for its transportation. Ii: bills, lying lengthwiso in n contin uous line, it would reach 44,910 miles, 162 rods and 7 feet or eutirely around the globe and along its diameter, with 1,919 miles, 162 rods and 7 feet to spare, or more than one-seventh of the distance from our planet to the moon. If laid “ width- wise,” these $1 bills would roach 14,- 500 miles, 151 rods and 8 feet, or from New York city to moro than 30 miles beyond Cheyenne, added to half the circumference of the globe. In 91 bills it would spread a carpet 103 feet and 8 inches wide and 86 miies long; a carriage drive 4 feet and 11 inebea wide and over 1,806 miles long, or a comfortable promen ade 2 feet fire iuebes in width and more than-3,612 miles in length. In $20 gold pieces, lying sido by side, it would construct a sidewalk 42 inebea wide, but a few rods short of 10 miles long; in silver dollars, lying contiguous, a boulevard 100 feet wide and 89 miles in length. Thomas McElratb, of Malboro, w I iom cate attracted wide attention three Tears ago because he said he had not alept a wink in ten years, is atilt living without sleep.

An Io w a girl-poet send* us at>oem, the first line of which is as follows: •‘ I w o u ld I w a r . a b i r d . ” That aettlea her baeb. No birds need apply- Wbat in the wild world a decent looking, healthy girl wants to be a bird for is more than we can imagine. Granting that an Iowa girl poet ia aa handsome as a statue, how like thunder she would look as a bird, sitting on a rail fence on one leg, scratching her feathers with ene claw, or bopping down under a gooseberry bush scratching for angleworm? with her bare toe naila. If the girl poet bird should find an angleworm sbe would run away and scream. But maybe it is not that kind of a bird sbe wants to be. There is no kind of a bird that can have so much fun ati a girl. As a girl sbe can go to all the places of amusement, daDce and flirt aud get mashed, but as a bird, with nothing on but feathers, sbe would catch cold. Imagiue a girl poet flying around in the trees, hopping from limb to limb. She would have the whole town watching her, and mak ing remarks. Think bow a girl poet would feel if she was a bird, and should bo moulting. Sbe would watch every feather that dropped off, and wonder how loug the feath ers were going to bold out. And then, if the girl poet was a bird she would have to set, if she was that kind of a poet, or a bird, and the setting would commence just when there waa the most going on in so ciety, and sbe would have to stay right by regardless, and after the poet bird got off the nest sbe would look sick, and it would tuke six weeks to recruit up so as to make decent appearance in bird society. If a girl poet desires to be a bird in order to get out of any of the duties of life, so as to have a high old time chirruping around stealing cherries, and singing the livelong day, sbe makes a mistake. Birds may seem to be free from care, and to have n soft thing, but they have a heap of trouble. There is the same jealousy and back-biting among birds that there is among human beings, and a good looking, well dressed bird,who has any style about her, aud is a trifle indepsndent and jolly, will find that sbe will get her feathers rumpled, and be called names, and she will wish some boy with a bean snapper would fire a load of beans right through her. Our Iowa poet does not say wbat kind of a bird sbe would like to be, but we can’t think of any kind of a bird that would bo as good as a girl. Of course sba wouldn't want to be a ennary bird or a mocking bird in a on go, and have to sing for hemp seed and mockiDg bird food, and look out for cats. She would probably want to be a ild, out door, go-as-you-please sort ' there is none of -e perfectly safe, l good time. If lluck or a wild goose, lire WOWHT bo flying along some day when there would be a puff of smoke under her, nnd sbe would feel as though she had a hot box, and would go off and sit on a muskrat house nil night, pickiug No. 5 shot out of her dnrk moat, or tho second joint, or elsewhere, as the case might be. There wouldn’t be much fun iu that. If sho was a pigeon she would bo caught in a trap aud have her neck wrung. And whatever kind uf a bird our poet might be, sho would have to scratch gravel for a living and eat worms. Tho outlook would not be first-class. Tho only bird sho could be, nnd be a success, would be a hen, and have a rooster scratch for her, and then there would be tho drawback of hnviug to shore the worms her own darling rooster might find, with n whole flock of huns. If our Iowa girl poet has got a fair job iu her business, nnd can have nn ex tra dress to wear to parties, nnd can catch ou to a fellow once in a while, nnd does uot want the earth, she should cease repining, let the bird scheme go, and bo contented as a girl. A girl can discount all the birds iu tbe woods, nnd be iu uo danger of being shot by boys with slings.—Burlington Uawkevo. SM M W .

We have no war— what did you lear? If you had kept it at your home, I doubt if any thief had come.” “ I touched it not— loans I refuted; I kept it there not to be used.” Then said the men, “ If that'« the case, Why do yon have ao aad a face?
