Wonderful Discoveries.
Molalla, Jan. 27, 1S77.
Editor Enterprise : Eureka 1 'tis
found, and. like the Irishman's frog, all
up and down the creek they exclaim,
"Struck itl Struck it 1" You might offer
the people of school district No. 20 won
dertul stories of mammoth or ma.stndon
bones found, in other States, and they
would turn from you in disgust; coral
reefs, fossil remains, etc., would fail to
interest them now. Even great discover
ies of small temples, grand old cities, peo
pled with plentiful remains of giants,
would not excite astonishment in their
mighty minds. Even rumors of wars in
this and other countries fail to excite more
than a passing remark or a contemptuous
curl ot the lip, since 3ome one in this
neighborhood discovered the mighty
bone, the bone of all bones, to hear them
tell it. Those who have explained to me
its great magnitude are men of science
and research ; men who never take second
hand information, but get it direct from
headonarters : men whoso mathematical
calculations cannot and will not be dis
puted. I am not prepared just now to
aivo the exact size of this bone, but there
is a committee that was chosen to superin
tend the excavation, and they seem hope
ful of bringing it out in all its greatness,
and express a hope that all may see it in
the same light that they do. Some think
it has been placed there lately for specu
lation and a grand swindle, but from its
size this theory don't seem possible to mv
simple mind; besides, I heard the presi
dent of said committee say himself," 'twas
premature. V hatever that may mean,
the committee Jas. Otlield, W in. Kiggs
and Geo. Irving, all well known men of
Clackamas countv an my authority.
They seem to think that it will be a great
curiosity and luxury, but of no benetit to
the state ot Oregon, me presiaent says,
(for instance): "The ruins ot Greece,
Home, Carthage, Asia, Africa, America,
Mexico, etc., never were a benefit, etc."
To tell the truth, I am sorry that all can
not hear them lecture about this bone.

Goidkn Wbddino. On Thursday, Jan
Hth, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Keily celebrat
ed the fiftieth anniversary of their mar
rlage, at the residence of their son-in-law-
. G. Conant, where a pleasant company
ot their relatives assembled to congratu
late them. After an hour of delightful so
cial intercourse with the venerable and
sprightly couple, the guests partook of a
bountiful wedding feast, and all heartily
concurred in the opinion that Golden
Weddings areverv enjoyable occasions.
One peculiar feature in "this event is the
fact, that on Jan. 11th, Mrs. Kellv
and her siste were both married at the
same hour, and both couples live to eel e
Tate ,t.hoir golden wedding. Mr. and
-Mrs. Kelly formerly resided for many
years m this vicinity. About three years
ago they went West, and have traveled
extensively in California. Oregon, and
Colorado, they have recently resided for
some time in Denver, from whence they
have just returned.
It will be remembered that Father and
Mother Kelly left thjs city last summer

In Memoriam.
It was with the deepest pain that
the news was received of the un
timely death of Joseph-Miller, eldest son
of Captain J. D. Miller of this city. He
had gone to the Dalles for his health,
which had been for some time f:iiliYn-
and at which place he passed away on the !
very threshold of manhood, dying on his
jwi-iiy-iirsi uirmuay, inelMth ot January,
1(7, a victim to that fell destroyer, con
sumption. Joseph Miller was a young man of quiet
disposition, ot high moral character, and
possessing the peculiar faculty of making
all his acquaintances his friends. His
mother and eldest sister carefully nursed
him for months past, but all was in vain.
He has been called by One who does all
tilings for the best, hard though it may
seem to us, as our heart ccrds are rent
assunder, but we know ho is in a happier
home and a pleasanter state. We most re
spectfully join our sympathy with that of
tho entire community, in tins allliction to
Capt. Miller and his family, and hope, as
time wears on, tho poignancv of grief may
lose its keenness, and the memory of his
uiigui me oe ever a source of happy
thoughts and family pride.
Smali-Pox. The small-pox patients in
this city are getting along as well as could
be expected. They have good medical at
tendance and a com petent nurse. The little
baby who was taken down first is almost
well, and running around the house. The
last two eases, a boy about 14 years of age
and a little girl of 3 vears, are getting along
finely; the girl, however, has been very
low tor some days past, but is improving
slowly. Dr. Norris informs us that it is
not probable that the rtst of the family
will have tho terrible disease.
Tin Store. Head the ad. of J. W. Mil
ler & Son, of 98, Front St., Portland, and
when you are investing in their line of bus
iness, remember to give them a call. Mr.
J. W. Miller was lor many years a resi
dent of this city, at one time employed by
E. Milwain cfc Co., anil afterward running
a shop of bis own. His capability as "a
workman is well known over the 'entire
State, and we will guarantee satisfaction
to all who favor hint with their patronage.
Some Wind. A young friend residing
seven or eight miles east of this city sends
us the following item: "On tho windy
night of Jan. 21st, half the roof of W. F.
Kirk's barn was blown clF by the wind.
Tho doors on tho windward' side being
open, the wind rushed into the barn, rais
ing the roof, rafters and all, and carried it
over the horse shed, by the bam. No harm
was done, excej.it causing some work and
nev boards. Total loss about $12."
Robbed. Last Saturday night, Col. W
L. White had $00 taken from his room
He had placed his pants, containing SO0 in
gold and a small amount of silver, on a
chair near Ins bed, with the door slightly
open, and on looking for the money in the
morning, he found tho silver still there,
but the gold was gone. Suspicion points
to a certain individual, and if the deed can
be traced to him, he will secure lodging
at Salem.

whether they secrete too much or too little
water; or whether they be afflicted with
stone or gravel, or with aches and pains set
tled in the loins over the regions of the kid
neys, these Iil Is should be taken according to
the printed direct ions, and the Ointment
should be well rubbed into the small of thc

almost immediate relief when all other means
have failed.
