The present eastern terminus oi the O. P. h at Albany, but grading has been completed to a consid erable distance toward the Cascade mountains and the company has at Ya quiua and on the way rails tor a hun dred and fifty miles of track. There is scarcely a doubt that the winter termi nus oi this road next year will be at some Eastern llregon point. Orhf.r Issi ed. Some time last faring when the sheriff attempted to collect the tax. irom the narrow gauge railway com pany, payment was refused, the oilieers oi the company claiming that the rail road was leased' to the O. R. & X. 'Co., and that the sheriff must look to them ior the taxes. The shops at Woodbnm were attached for the amount, which was $1402 80, and the matter was turown into the United States onrt, the com pany having in the meantime secured the release oi the Sinn's by giving a bond for the amount. The matter dragged along; in the court until the other day, when Jude ieudy decided that the b. li. X. company was responsible for tiie amount, and issued an order, that they pay it. Marion eonnty has settled the question as to who is responsible for the narrow gange company's taxes, and the way for collection oi them is made plain to other counties. As Ixp.vse Max. Yesterday, Chas. C. Leng.of Hubbard, was bronchi to this city, and examined before Jud - haw, and by Doctors Cusick an ! v u.:!h, aeto his sanity. Long is the an who was found up in Walla Wri.u, in a half-naked and frozen condition. He was nrrested and brought down to Portland. He nest turned up at Hubbard, from which place he had gone to Walla Walla. Long has a gash upon bis foiehead, which looks like it had been made with a sandbag. And it is thought that he was sandbagged, because 100, which he was known to have on his person, was missing at the time he was found, and this brnixe was left in its plaee. He had shown symp toms of insanity for about a year, bnt never until lately was he thoueht to be clear crary. He was consigned to the asvlam. A Cab Aklaze. Yesterday while the south bound train was on its way between Saleru and Albany the wood box in the t-mokins car was oierved to be getting up a quiet little smoke on its own ac count. Investigation allowed that the wood werk under the zinc covering was on fire, and by the prompt application of an ax ami a few caps of water, its disposi tion to indulge in what the genus homo seem inclined to wish to monopolize a quiet little smoke was quickly suodued, and w hat might have proven a serious accident was nipped in the bud and no damage done with the exception of a gash in the saw covering of the wood box.

Further Developments in Kearard to the Beattio MatterHe Leaves The State. Further developments in reetird to the Fattie Matter come to light aa time pas-es on. Rest tie, at the time lie was charged with the theft of the money, was in tiie poiesiion of several thousand dollars Ueiongiiisr to friends, who had placed it in his hands for sate keeping. One young man, who is now in Idaho, bad entrusted hiai with $1300. The young man's irieuds telegraphed him that he bad better look out for his money, and he authorized them to crowd IVattie ior him. When Keattie was asked for it, just betore he left, he surrendered it with out any trouble. Other Bums aggregating 11,500 were gotten from him by other parties, whose banker he had been. When be was asked for any money which was missing he surrendered it. There are other sums w hich be has not refunded. There are other charges of a serious nature made against lum. Among winch is the one that he connived to secure the discharge of certain employees who did not suit bis fastidious taste, and that he acted as spy and informer of their ac tions. Traps were laid to catch him some time sini?, but lie was very wary, and it was soma time before be fell into them. It is said that Ceattie is worth at least 50,tKiO, bavins vears airo invested in property in Portland which has increased wonderfully in value. That he is a deep- dyed scoundrel and that he has been earrvinir own a svstematic course of pil fering and robbery during a term of vears there is no question. The proprietv of letting him escape from the state is doubtful. He left on yesterday's after noon train for parts unknown. He said that he was going east. Plus Talk. Tiie "how" of the creat problem of trade winning is a subject which everv merchant is willing to con sider. The gieat successes achieved in business have, in every instance, been due more to the material the man was made of the "snap" that was in him than to the amount of his capital or the advantage of his surroundings. The sa gacity which enables one to foresee tiie shaping of events is possessed by but few. All of the above qualifications are pos sessed by Strong & Co., the live restau rant firm of the citv. Ose by Ose. The employes at the lenitentiary are being let out one by one, and new men placed in their positions. Y'esterday the night watchman. Sir.

Tiie alarm which was raised by the relatives oi Henry Fuiton, the printer, over his dlsaipearanee from this city, has partially subsided, since it is learned that, instead of having been shanghaied or sandbagged, or dealt with in any otiier unceremonious way, he is now king oi the scissors and pastepot of the Western Washington Farmer, and is riding the editorial tripod without a sad die.

On Thursday night, quite a pleasant snpper party gath ered at Strong'8 oyster parlors, on an in vitation from Messrs. .1. H. liailey and W. T. Mail k, of Pendleton, us a pledge of good will on the part of all Hrsons interested pro and con in the bill which failed to pass the senate, Thursday, known as the "Lee county bill." The guests, aH:ut fifty in number, sat down to an excellent supper at 10 ::!0, and wit and wine flowed freely until the hour of 12. Toasts were proposed and appropri ately responded to and the evening passed very enioyably to all present. Among the guests were Senators Yeatch, Siglin, Weatherford, Wager, Lxmey, Gray, Stanley, and Coleman ; Represen tatives It. A. Milter, Thompson. How ditch, Holland, Dilveu, Noyer, and Gay ; Mrs, Senator Sialin, Mis Siglin, Mrs. Zumwalt, Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Monroe, Ex-Senator Hilyeu, of Aibunv, Judge Geo. Washburne, of Eugene, j. H.

No official act of any governor of Oregon has ever created in Portland such indignation as was expressed by people in every circle of society over Gov. Pennover's veto of the bill allowin? tbeO. K. it N. comjiain to bridge the Willamette river at this place. After three years of inaction the railroad company are anxious lo give the commercial interests the accommodation of terminal facilities freight and passen ger -on this side of the river; to save long and tedioes wason hauls of height tip and down steep inclines and across tiie river; to allow pasmngers to seat themselves in ears in the city and le carried east instead of a long and incon venient ferry transfer ; to build a bridge, a passenger depot and a freight deiot and to expend two or three million dol lars. If the bill should fall through the governor's veto, and an indignation meet ing were cnlled, a day's notice would sutiiee to fill the Mechanics' pavilion with citizens eager to express approval of the bridsje measure and disapproval of the governor's course. i Oregonian. Shockiso Accixjest. A fatal accident occurred at Albins., Thursday, which was caused by the fool with the gun he "didn't know wan loaded." Mrs. Mary Xewton, an old lady about 00 years of age, was approaching the residence of Geo. Armstrong, about 4 o'clock p. m., of the day in question, when E. W. James, thinking to scare her, picked up a shot gun and pointed it toward her. The eun went oil, the charge entering the left breast of Mrs. Newton, above the heart. Mrs. Newton sank to the ground, and in twentv minutes breathed her last. James is in custody. The coroner has investigated the matter, and is satisfied that the shooting is accidental. Mrs. Newton is 55 years of age, and is the wiie of Daniel B. Newton, a carpenter at Aibi na, the mother of two daughters and one son, all of whom are married. She kept a boarder or tw, and sold milk to her neighlwrs. .She will be brought to Ger vais this morning for burial. Help to Askweu.

Y'esterday morning, the delivery team of Pete Phillips, which was standing at his barn near the rail road switch, became frightened at the pulling of the switch engine, and started to run. They had hardly not under gvHl headway before they co'li led w ith a telegraph iole, throwing J, Phillips, cousin of Pete, who was in tbo wagon at the time, and who bud been unable to reach the lines and stop the team, vio lently to the ground, injuring his wrist and bruising his face. The team was caught without any trouble. Phillips went around the most of the day with his arm in u sling, the wrist being bad ly swollen, and it pained him so greatly that he finally called a doctor, who dis covered that a severe iraeture had been sustained. The broken member was set, and at last a:ixunts Phillips was resting much easier, although in sore pain, owing to the faet that he delayed so long in having bis arm dressed. Ax Efficient Officer. Of all the officers who have served the state during the past few years, none have Wen more efficient than Dr. Josephi, the su perintendent of the asylum. His re moval will be looked on by those w no are acquainted with the workings of the institution as nothing short of a pub lic calamity. The Dr. was chosen for this responsible position lieeause of his pecul iar fitness for mid ability in the treat ment of the insane sick, and with his case fiohtical considerations have had and ought to have nothing to do. The unfortunate Ileattie affair baa occurred during the administration of Dr. Joscphi, and is being construed by those who are seeking his removal as a reflection on him. This is most unfair, because the diK-tor was to blame in no conceivable wav. lie was not responsible, and can not Ins considered si, either morallv or technically, for Feattie's misdoings. Prosckitive IxiiAiitTAXTs.-J. C. Colby, of Wyndmere, Dakota, writing to the iainiigration board in Portland for map- and hiformuthin regarding Oregon, savs ''A party of seventeen Dakotans wish to seek a more congenial climate and in the spring shall go to cither Oregon or Wash ington, preferring the former. We are supposed to lie industrious and would be happy if we bad half a chance, but Ia kota offers slight inducements to pro mote one's enjoyment. We have had a frightfully cold winter and fifteen full grewn blizzards. Please send a few pa pers telling of your country that I may scatter around as Manna among the shivering humanity on this cheerless prairie. Settlers of North Dakota who have endured and survived two winters here, wou'd lynch Ingersoll or any one who would come there and preach the 'no hell theory.' " Chinaman 1xjcri:d. The practice of throwing snow balls is doubtless a very amusing exercise to the party who throws, but the one hit is not apt to think it so funny. During this snowy weather Chinamen are the greatest sufferers. Last evening, a'no'it dark, a couple of boys on Piety Hill conceived the ilea that it would Le lots of fun for them to attack a Chinaman who was passing, feeling sure that if he took offense they could easily ew'ajie.in tiie dark. Several hard snow balls were thrown at him, evidently "water-soaked," for one which hit him in the mouth injured him pain fully, knocking out several teeth, and causing the blo.d to flow ijniie freely. Tiie boys escaped, but if caught they ought to he punished. CorxrEi;ii:iTi;fi S':;.N'!i:.v,;i:i. John Da venport, a counterfeiter, who was arrett ed in Wood barn a few days fdnee, was arraigned in the I". S. district court on Thv.r.-day.

FROM SUNDAY'S DAILY. St Ki'uisK Party. A number of the friends of Miss Ada Brevman filed in upon her last Friday evening, at the res idence of her father, on State street, and took her completely hy surprise. The self-invited guests brought refreshments with them, and announced their inten tion of taking ossession of everything. Cards and games were indulged in until eleven o'clock, w hen all repaired to t he dming room and partook of the splendid luncheon prepared by the ladies of the party. The surprise to Miss Ada was complete, but she was equal to the occa sion and made alt feel at home. The guests departed at a late hour, feeling that the party hod lieen a complete suc cess. There were present, Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Waite. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Ilrey man, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. II. Burnett, Mr. and Mrs. Eben l4fort, Mr. and Mrs. M. N.

Three More. -Lust evening three more of the gang of tramjis were arrested by Sheriff Minto and Ieputy Potter, charged with stealing wood from the de pot. They were arraigned before Justice O'Donuld at about 8 :lt0. when they gave their names as Henry Holt, Andy Clark and James Dugan. An examination into the merits of the case developed the fact that Dtigun was a working uuui and that he was not implicated in the ufl'air. On motion of lA'puty District Attorney Courtney he was discharged. Holt and Clark were each given thirty days in the county jail. When the oflieers" arrested the men, ai the stronghold of the tramps near the dejiot, they found there two boys living in South Salem, named Jordan and .esbit, aged Is and 14. lhev were brought in, hut were discharged by the justice, it appearing that thev were simplv in the company of the tpamps because they were attracted there hy the fascina tion of the stories of the rollicking life of the roving tramp. Is Position. Yesterday morning Street Commissioner Thompson com menced, with a gang of workmen, to re pair the drift-bnaker whieh was forced out of iiosition bv the late high water. After some work, the breaker was placed in position, and will be braced so it will be able to withstand any strain. During the day, an accident occurred which came near resulting fatally. A rope that was lieing used to let down some timlxr from the bridge to the breaker, caught one of the k;gs of George Hatch, and dragged him along rapidly toward the edge of the bridge, l'-v a smx'rhmntin effort Mr. Hatch succeeded in extricating himselt from the entangling rope, but it was not until he had been baaly hruiHeu He was conveyed to his home, and at last accounts lie was resting easy.
