Mixed Religions and Races.
t It is probable that tliere is not
in the world any other public or
private establishment "which pre
sents so many varieties of nation
ality and religion as the govern
ment printing oilice in Bosnia.
There are among its employees
three Bohemians, one Corinthian,
one Croat, three from lower Aus
tria, one Roumclian, twelve Turks,
two Servians, one Afghan, one
Prussian, one Russian, and one
Dalmatian. As to religion, there are
twelve Mohammedans, one Prus
sian evangelical, several orthodox
Greeks, one uniate Greek, and
several Roman catholics.
A S tin gent Act-
Among the laws enacted by the
late legislature of Illinois is one
providing that any banker or
broker, or person doing a banking
business, or any officer of airy bank
ing company, who shall receive
a deposit when insolvent, whereby
the deposit so made shall be lost
to the depositor, shall be deemed
guilty of embezzlement, and shall
be fined in double the amount of
the sum fraudulently taken, and
also imprisoned in the peniten
tiary for not less than one nor
more than three years. The fail
ure, suspension, or involuntary
liquidation of the banker, broker,
or banking company within thirty
days after receiving the deposit is
to be deemed prima facie evidence
of an intent to defraud.
Tit for Tat.
The new German tariff is aug
meriting: the ill feeling1 between
Germany and Russia, which first
became distinctly observable
during the Berlin congress and
was afterwards so much increased
by the precautionary action of
the German government during the
outbreak of plague. The manner
in which the Russian and German
journals are at present nagging at
one another is perfectly childish.
The Germans dilate with evident
pleasure on the disturbed internal
condition of Russia, and express
horror at the idea of a Russian
having been found to attempt the
life of the once revered Czar. The
Russian journals reply:
Tu quoque. Do not forget that your
emperor was fired on twiee witliin a
short interval, and our emperor has only
been fired on once.

Everybody has heard of the
Shenandoah, the notorious priva
teer of the southerners in the
American civil war, but I do not
suppose that many know what was
the ultimate fate of the ship when
the war ended. Of all places in
the world she now lies tfathoms
deep" off the island of Socotra, in
the Arabian Gulf. Her story is a
strange one. She was busy burn
ing whalers in Behring Straits
w'nen "Waddel, her commander,
the mildest-mannered man who
ever scuttled ship or cut a throat,
heard of the collapse of the south.
His occupation being gone, and
being without home or harbor to
which he durst with safety return,
he ran the Shenandoah to Liver
pool a'nd immediately surrendered
her to Her Majesty's ship Donegal,
in the Mersey. She was handed
over to the American consul and
afterward bought at auction by
Nicol, Fleming & Co., a firm that
has earned a notoriety in connec
tion with the failure of the City of
Glasgow bank, for the Sultan of
Zanzibar. After remaining idly
at Zanzibar for some years, she
was sent to Bombay for repairs, but
foundered off Socotra, all hands be
ing lost except one Englishman
and a few Lascars.
Dr. MIntic'.H Xrplircllcum X Compound
Extract orRucliu.
Dn Mintic's ephreticum works won
ders. In all cases of Dropsy, Bright's
Disease. Kidnej. Bladder and Urinary
Complaints, or Ketention of Urine, these
troubles are entirely cured by the No
phreticum. Female Weakness, Gravel,
Diabetes, pain in the back, side and loin
are cured, when all other medicines
have failed.
See what the druggists of Portland
and San Franeisco say about Dr. 3Hu
tie's Xephreticum and English Dande
lion Pills.
We have sold a large amount of Dr.
Mintie's medicines; the English Dan
delion Pills; alM)the Xephreticum. and
in all cases they are highly spoken of
and give entire satisfaction.

Abrams & Carroll, wholesale drug
gists, 3 and 3 Front street, San Francis
co, say:
. "We regard Xephreticum as the best
kidney and bladder remedy before the
public.
For all derangements of the liver, use
Dr. Mintie's English Dandelion Pills.
For Billiousness and Dyspepsia, use Dr.
Mintie's Dandelion Pills. For Fever
and Ague, use Dr. Mintic's English
Dandelion Pills.
Every family should keep the Eng
lish Dandelion Pills on hand.
Dr. Minties remedies will not "cure
all complaints," but if taken according
to directions, give immediate relief and
perfect a cure in all troubles for which
they are recommended. For sale by
R. F. Caufield. druggist, Astoria. Oregon.
There have been more cures of semi
nal weakness, nervous debility and par
alysis made by the wonderful English
Remedy, Sir Astley Cooper s Vital Res

Caught at Last.
A young man from the rural districts
came down to town yesterday and from
his maneuvers evidently intended to
swindle some of our merchants out of a
suit of clot lies, buthe- found clothing so
very cheap at the I. x. t Stoke, thai he
made a purchase at once.
If a man in San Francisco or in
Oregon, drops in the post-offico a let
ter misdirected or without a stamp, as
sometimes happens even with careful
correspondents, ten weeks must elapse
before he hears anything of it, for it
caunot be opened short of the dead
letter office in Washington, whither it
is sent. It is now proposed to get
over this difficulty bv establishing
branch dead letter offices in different
parts of the country, a common-sense
plan.
