The joke came out on election day, anil now the young blood would fain have people believe that lie voted his real sentiments. We don't blame him much, however, as we know his weaknessfor the girls, and this girl was handsome enough to make a Sampson weak. Suit for Damages.

Dr. Bo'ce writing from Jfew Erasays: "On Thursday the 15th, a tree fell across O. L. Rurbur's house, near New Fra, breaking a clock, looking glass and door, and striking the chair w hich he had just vacated with suflieient force to have killed him. The house is badly 'mashed.' " Robbery and Slimier. About 9 o'clock Tuesday morning, in Portland, three men entered the Dawn-broker shop of; Walter O'Shea, on Washington, ljetween First and Sjeond streets, under the pretense of purchasing some blankets. From indications, it appears that while I O'.Siiea was stooping down in front of the open safe, he received three blows from some heavy instrument, rendering him oblivious to all the surroundings. At , , ,-,. , present he lies in a very precarious eondi- i willing to put Israel Rivers on tho very tion. TLe jobbers then locked the street i apex of fame, hoist thereby a petard from door, and proceeded to help themselves j some unknown poet, whose rythm being to an unknown amount of money, and a .,, . . , ... .' carpet sack of jewelry, etc. In the mean- j hiultless and whose words .sublime. Ul timo the suspicions of two young men on j duces us to overstep the usual rule and the opposite side of the street were j publish wit limit the name ot the compo.s aruiised, w!'.ie!i led to Constable Sprague, er. lie should step to tiio front, however, the onlv ptlieer then insight, teing eaded. as the ranks of tho poets are broken with Wiiile sprague was at the trout door, the . men elleeted their escape through a rear window, over a hiiih board fence, anil j then walked coolly through the .tore 01 Lewis A' S;raus, into Fiist street, up winch they leisurely strolled with their plunder, until becoming aware of their iK-ing pursued by Constable Spiague, when they broke into a run. As Spiague was closing up on the last man, one of the robbers turned and tired a revolver, nar rowly inisiing him, and strik ngayoung lad named Louis Joseph, who A as stand ing on the walk, squarely in the heart, killing him instantly. A second shot was tired at Sprague without cited. The men then ran to the corner of Third and Mor rison streets, jumped into the grocery wagon of Weeks tfc Morgan, drove up Morrison street tit a furious rate. At Fif teenth street they abandoned the wagon, passed through 'King's orchard and the City Park, making good their escape into the woods. Wit inn an hour fifty well armed men were scouring. tho woods west of the city, but up to yesterday morning the search was unsuccessful. In their liight tho men dropped tho valise con taining a goodly portion of the jewelry, etc., which was found near the park. It is believed that one of the men was Wounded by tho accidental discharge of one of their own weapons, as the report of a pistol .was heard, and just after one of the men was seen limping. The small reward of was ofuued by the commit too on health and police, for the apprehension and conviction of the guilty parties. The Coroner's jury, in thecase of the lad Louis Joseph, rendered a verdict in accordance with the above. There are various con jectures as to the authors of this high handed outrage, but without any particu lar foundation. As near as is known, one o( the men is tall, and spare built; the sec ond was low, thick, anil very heavy; and the third was scarcely more than a boy in stature. Up to Wednesday night two ar rests had been made, but proved to be the wrong parties. Disastrous It una way. Saturday afternoon our town was arous ed from its usual quietness by Fellows &. Harding's horse and express wagon com ing down the street at a "J.lt gait. It seems that Mr. Harding left the horse standing at thedcpot.and it got frightened from some cause and concluded to leave. Kverything was rigid side up with cure until the run away took thesidewalli in front f Major Charman's, and kept it to the land oliice corner, going under the awnings, knock ing against posts and buildings, and bringing up in the street alongside of the land oliice. Tho wagon was pretty well used up, and tho horse had' one of his hind legs broken, making it necessary to kill biiii. Feilows vt Harding are anout cdH out on the afternoon. This iirm seems rather unfortunate "wit h their hors es and express wagons, having lost three horses and met; i itii about a dozen sma.sii uj s. i;v the way, we had almost forgotten Feiiows' dog, which was tied under the wagon and 'made the pei ilotis ti io from the' depot to Myers' store, where Ihe rope i'iukc!i!i:l he escaped. Tho poor dog was determined t ke 1 up with the wagon. I and it was really laughable to see his movements now" liying in the air with j the rope stittchi d to its utmost, and the j next in. mi lit hanging his head against the wh.-eU, then dra.rmg over the rocks j and rougu sidewalk ; and it is no wonder i that the canine 'gave vent.to his feelings in ; hunt veins whenever the rope was slack - .. ... . . .. enougn to permit 01 me same. .Mr. r ci lows was giving the dog his lirst lesson i:i following tho wagon so as to guard it when the Ol iver left it, to deliver grocer ies, lint from present a; 'pea ranees the dog has lost too mueh cuticle to do much following tor sonic time, and it is a safe b. t that he will li-'Vcr go near that wagon again, even if he should recover.

It is said that " The Avon to the Severn runs Tne Severn to the sea," Which we are not prepared to dispute, but where Israel Rivers runs is a conun drum our poet knows not. Our bill against him for subscription, S-'-j, runs its regular course from ledger to ledger, an 1 that is I. .1Tl ttt!it;rv tn U'e however, are liry ant's deatli, and a new name must be added to the muster roll to till no the complement of eminent living writers of the tlav TIIK POEM j Tho Fourth of July runaway, or the run-, j around Israel Rivers. i He can't stay in one place and is satisfied ! nev r; He cut a grand show when he left his child ren and wife To go and sock his own pleasures in life. I am not much acquainted with the old skite, Put a few lines I thought I'd write ; hut from sill that I can learn lie's just such a 'man that a wife might spurn Up to this time our sympathies have decidedly been with the wife; but this last line excites a grave suspicion. Women ure iuick to judgment ami slow to mercy. Perhaps Israel's pocadilloes were not so, grave that his wife should summarily ex ecute punishment by spurning. Pel haps this son of Ham, with the imprint of his wife's hrogans imoigned in his posterior, wanuer-tne earth a' marked anil bruised fugitive away from the scene of anguish, gladly exchanging the bosom of the world for the besom of his better half. Israel, is this real? Is our presumption correct? If so, come back to the wife of your better days, where plasters, salvo and healing ointment awaits you. Come back to the ExiEitPHisK oliice and pay U3 three dol lars, anyway. The poem com mues : 1 I don't think it is his wife's fault at all, For she seems kind to each and all ; And h'1 seems to her most dear, 1-Vr niter he left I saw her shedding tears. I have leari.ed from his friends of old That olten he has lett his tender fold. I think that if 1 was him I'd take a better plan I'd go home and live like a man. Wo think this lets Israel out. The mis erable cuss, after having piloted children to the thrcshhold of the lied Sea of this world's misery, deserts them to steer into tho rivers of Sin ; tie leaves his teuuer fold forsaken. Will the memory of belter days arrest him from his downward career? Will the still small voice of conscience whisper him back to be tho "Douglas, Douglas ten der and true" of the old hearth-stone? We know not whether this appeal to "return and live like a man" will soften the icy coccles of his heart; but we add our en treaties Israel, come back to the "loved anil tost" and pay us our three dollars; you may depart again after this witli our benediction "if "the storm clouds lower" about tho ranch and "t he old home ain't what it used to be." We stretch our hand to you, Israel Fivers, to say, lest "U'e nev er smile agai-." (at Mack's) return with a trinity of dollars for us and receive our forgiveness.
