Porter, of the Albany Bulletin, and Geo. Rogers, of the Salem Lance, have been exchanging personal " courtesies" through their respective pa pers in regard to certain acts of each oth- er. An item wnicn appeared in last week's Lance was too much for Porter, and on Thursday he swore out a warrant for the arrest of Rogers charging him with criminal libel, and sent Constable Burkhart, of Aloany, down to Salem to arrest Mr. Rogers. Mr. Burkhart came and returned with him to Albany the same night. Rogers was arraigned be fore Justice Humphrey, and was placed under $200 bonds to appear the next morning, but was released on his own recognizance. Yesterday morning Rog ers appeared before the justice and waived examination, He was bound over in $200 bonds, to appear before the next orand iurr of Linn eountv. which meets in March. Bonds were promptly furnished and yesterday afternoon's train brought back to Salem the editor of tbe Lance. The item upon which the charge of criminal is made is as follows : "The mule of the Albany Bulletin asked us to inform him as to the truth of a certain article published in the Oregon 8 if tings in regard to us. Even if it were true, it could not be painted as black as the little item in regard to tbe time that you called your son Tracy into your bed-room, that he might witness the brave act of pulling your wife out of bed by the hair of her bead and otherwise abuse her, hoping thereby to goad the poor woman to apply for a divorce, to enable you to continue a liaison with a giddy girl. Perhaps Mis ery could be induced to write it up for the Sittings. Eh f " The case will come up at the March term of tbe circuit court, at which time some interesting deve lope men ts are promised. A Lively Rujuwait. Visitors to the scene of the Bennett House fire were yes terday morning treated to a view of an exciting episode. The two horses hitched to the hack of Minto Bros, came dashing around the corner from the Mon roe house and ran at a breakneck pace down State street. Douglas Minto, the driver, was making strenuous efforts to stop the exiited team, but control over them could not be regained. When op posite the Capital engine house, Mr. Minto managed to turn the horses toward the sidewalk opposite the engine house, and the whole concern went dashing into the awning and meat market at that place. Tbe horses, hack, driver, passen gers, and all, came to a sudden stop, and two posts of the awning were knocked completely out. How the driver and young fellow who was riding with him managed to keep their seats is a myste ry. The two passengers, who during the whole time had been shut up in the hack opened the door and jumped out hastily into a sea of mud in their anxiety to get out of danger. Grest credit is due to Mr. Minto for his courage and presence of mind in stopnu.g the team as he did, in a manner so regardless of his own safety. Otherwise the lives of his pas sengers might have been sacrificed. The Mikstsels. The entertainment of the H. A. C. minstrels at the opera bouse last evening was well attended. The arrangement of the stage was very nice. The first part was well rendered, the music was very good, and the jokes and local hits were enjoyed by all present. "Tit Willow," by J. II. Ross, deserves especial mention. The song and chorus, "Climbing up the State House Stairs," by Billy Dugan, brought down the bouse. Harry Jackson, Charley Kelly, Keller and Hastings, Coomer, Prof. Ryley, George Uoeye, Billy Dugan and in fact all those who took part in the entertain ment, not by any means omitting those who furnished the music, did well jn their several parts. The Mischievous Twins, tbe concluding farce, was good enough for professionals. The original "Jumbo' appeared, aod took the house by storm. The entertainment was very satisfactory in a financial way. Bio Bones. Messrs. Palmers, of Hay ton, Yamhill county, have recently dis closed, or discovered, another "one of Oregon's wonders." It was discovered in the bed of Palmer's creek, and proves to be the petrified bones of the mantodon, or some other gigantic animal that exist ed thousands of years ago, whose race is now extinct. The bones are unusually large, even for a mastodon, unless, as it evidently seems, it was an exceptionally large one. These bones were discovered but a few days since. Mr. Palmer says be is positive the nt of the skeleton can be found at the same place, and when the high water recedes, he will make a more thorough investigation. Caocr. This dangerous disease is gen erally prevalent at this season of the year. Prepare for it by getting a bottle of "Imprwvsd Hive Syrap and Honey" at Port's. No. 100 State street. Rem are able. The Oregonian of Sept, 13, 1886, says : "Professor Morris gave his thirty-second lecture in Portland last evening, and although he raised the ad mission fee, the hall was more crowded than any evening before. Hie lecture was very much appreciated. At its close he paired off three couples phrenologi callv. Then while blind-folded he exam ined ten gentlemen, five republicans and five democrats, and told their politics, and then ten more and told tbe German from the British descent," Don't miss the free lecture at Salem, opera bouse, on Monday evening, January 17th. Beiixje Blown Dow. The water company some time ago erected a suspen sion bridge to tbe middle of the mill pood, so that communication with the wheel of the wire cable leading to the water wheel at the agricultural works might be bad. The high wind of Thurs day night proved too moch for the bridge, and blew it into tbe water. New Liohts. Wash. Stim peon's sa loon is now brilliantly lighted with the new incandescent system of electric lights. It works fine. Strong's restau rant has also adopted the system throngh out. and now has both the incandescent and are system of lights. It is immense. Win. Wolf and T. McF. Patton have also adopted the incandescent system. Elxoaxt. Strong has now in his em ploy one of the finest bakers on the Pacific Coast, who understands his busi ness in every particular. His display of cake now on hand is elegant, and they are sold cheaper than yoa can make them yourself. Waa Rkkxwcd. War between Ireland and Italy has been renewed. The States man, tha other day" told a simple little tale, wherein the Irish duke and Italian count were living together in beautiful harmony, running a turn market and pea nut stand. But peace no longer reigns, and grim-visaged war has put in appear ance. It appears that the count entered into partnership some time ago with the duke, and put his peanut roaster into the business. Now he seeks to withdraw from the firm, but he of the fish market won't have it. Attorneys have been en gaged on each aide, but so far no damage has been done, except that some very bad language in Irish-Italian and mongrel English has been indulged in. The end is not yet. Two Appoixtmests. Gov. Tennoyer has decided to appoint Hon. Robert Clow, of Polk county, superintendent of the penitentiary, and M. J. McKinnon, of Multnomah county, first warden. Mr. Clow was a joint senator from Polk and Benton counties for the legislatures of 1880 and 1882, and is well known on the west side of the river. He has a reputa tion for integrity and capacity. There were a. number of applicants for tbe place, among whom was Wm. II. Wat- kinds, of Portland, who had strong recom mendations. Mr. Collins, the present superintendent, haa made a very efficient officer, and be will retire with the con' sciousness that he has done his duty well. Tendered His Resignation. With the retirement of Gov. Moody, R. P. Ear hart, late secretary of state, tendered his resignation as adjutant general of the state to Gov. Pennoyer. Mr. Earhart's successor has not yet been named. The law makes it incumbent on the secretary of state to keep the military records, yet he could not properly be considered the bead of military correspondence without an appointment as adjutant general, and Gov. Moody, therefore, commissioned him as such officer. There is a great deal of hard work connected with the du ties of this office, but no pay ; and tbe militia of the state feel under very great obligations to Mr. Earhart, whose efforts have so often and continuously been di rected towards its improvement and ad vancement. Poets axd Poetbt ok America. The writer had the pleasure of listening to Rev. J. R. N. Bell's lecture on the "Po ets and Poetry of America," a few years since, and can Bay it was one of the most interesting lectures he ever heard. Tbis lecture wss writen in answer to oae of Dr. J. M. F. Browne, of Portland, on the "Poets and Poetry of Greece," which was delivered to a Salem audience, several years since. Dr. Bell has a wide reputa tion as a pleasant and able lecturer, and it is to be hotted he may have a crowded house on Tuesday night next. Hie lecture will be delivered at the Congre gational church for the benefit of the literary and social society. An admis sion price of ten cents will be taken at the door to defray the expenses of the lecture. A Temporary Abjumormbvt. When the Capitals' steamer burst its air cham ber the other morning, the probability was that the engine would be rendered useless until a new chamber could be brought from the east. Johnny Dugan, yesterday, put on a keavy iron chamber in place of tbe burs ted one, and in the afternoon the steamer was tested, and proved to be almost as good as ever. The steamer will now be serviceable until complete repairs are made. It must have taken an immense pressure to burst the old chamber. At the first test of the steamer, 350 pounds of steam to the square inch were raised, and the steamer didn't try, either. Tin Bexkett House Fire. Workmen have started to clearing away the debris from the scene of the Bennett house fire. Chinamen and small boys were engaged yesterday in hunting for more of the lost money, and a little was found. A new sidewalk will be built around the lot, and in the spring it will be decided whether to build anew or not. Messrs. Gray A Sons have had a standing offer for five years to the owners of the rest of the Chi nese buildings on State street, to tear down the Bennett house and remove it, Crovided the same thing would be done ythe latter. Chinatown may now be gotten rid of. To Have a Bridok. The citizens of Oregon City have taken tbe initiatory steps toward having a bridge across the Willamette at that place. On Friday, a vote of "bridge" or "no bridge" was taken, and the result was 196 for ami 12 against. The city will advance $1,000, the county $4000, and a syndicate of land owners across the river the rest of the money necessary to build a suspen sion bridge about 70 feet above the water and between 400 and 500 feet long. It is extremely probable that the bridge will be built. Set roa Hearino. The case of the State of Oregon vs. Nelson Dilley and Henry Johns, convicted and sentenced to fifteen and five years, respectively, in the penitentiary, at tbe last term of the cir cuit court for this county, has been ap pealed to the supreme court, and will be argued on next Thursday. These are the two young men who entered the Chinese camp, near Gervais, last fall, and stole a small sum of money and shot a China man. They are now in tbe penitentiary, and the chances are that they will stay there. HuNTixa Clothino. Justice Payne's office, on State street, was yesterday tbe scene of an interesting spectacle. From saorningtill night there was a constant stream of visitors who were searching for clothing, which was taken from the Bennett House the morning of the fire. Many articles were recovered, and many more were missing. These latter were probably stolen, as none of the articles of apparel were lost in tbe fire. Many pieces were unidentified. The BEAunnn. Snow. For the first time this winter snow fell, yesterday. In the morning a few flakes descended, and in the afternoon the snow came down thick for a while. About 1 o'clock a clap of thunder was heard, which was also the first heard this season. Naw Secret abt. At a mi; J Baptist Home Missionary boar i state of Oregon, held in Salem V Rer. G. J.
