Howard and Sullivan, who met their just deserts at tho hands of a' Seattle mub for tho murder of George B. Reynolds, were ex-convicts from tho State penitentiary, and also work men on the insane asylum building, and their sentences were commuted on that account. While in prison they sailed under tho names of Cubtirn and Morrison. Coburn was the one-armed man and was an ex-union soldier, and beforo leaving tho prison ho told some of his pals that he was going to get a fal3e arm and go out robbing again, and after committing his nocturnal ex ploits would take off his arm and thus escape detection. But he had not been out of the prison over two weeks before he was hung for murder at Seattle. The Statesman says that the names they went under when hanged wero their proper namc3.

' The lodge of Knights of Pythias have had Charles Heilborn put their charter in a fine frame, and, as it now appears will form an ornament far the lodge of their new building. From the Standard we learn that the O. R. & N. Co. have contracted with Mr. Wm. Bates, of Chicago for tho construction of a dry dock, which is intonded to be large enough to ac commodate any ship visiting onr port. The dock will be situated about three fourths of a mile below Albina, on tho cast side of the Willamette. An ex cavation will be made from the river into the bank about 450 feet. Piles will be driven to sustain a framework in the cavity of the ground, and the frame thus secured will be planked over and calked to keep out.the mud and water. The rear end of dock next the river, when a vessel is to be docked, will be closed by a caisson or floating gato eighty feet long, which, on being brought up against the abut ments, prevents the water from flow ing iti from the river while the water sn tho dock is being pumped out.

Some gentlemen 'started to call on their friends, and every place they went, upon taking their leave they took also along with them the people they visited. The corporal's guard that started had grown by sun-down to quite a procession, and before the day wa3 done the whole town was marching around. The Vindicator says that East Portland has more "additions' thau any other city in the United States. It will soon be larger than London if these additions keep on growing. Hol iday's and Stephen's additions have been followed by McMillen's, Sulli van's, Aiken's, Cole's, Tibbott's, Raf fety'g Logan's, Kern's, Hansen's, Story's, Hoiple's, Buckraan's, Bell view and one or two others which have been laid off but not yet named. Maaqnerntte CostumeH for Iteut. The small but appreciative audience that heard the Rev. G. W. Izer at the M. E. Church had offered to them a rare treat. Tho subject literature and mental exploration was, of itself, suggestive, and was handled in an interesting manner. Starting with Plato's maxim that in tho world there is nothing great but man; in man nothing great but mind, tho lecturer traced tho course of literature from the chronicles of the Egyptians to the latest onunciations of scientific re search, and paid glowing tribute to tho mastor minds whoso souls like sparkling stars dwelt serenely apart in the firmament of time, and whose thoughts aro as immortal as those souls from whence they oncinated. Thon speaking of the great- fields of literaturo, fiction, biography, science, history and poetry, ho paid tribute to each in an exhaustivo and elaborate dissertation upou the use and abuso of each. The beauty of his lanua"e linked to the rhythmic cadence of his voice made his lecturo an enjoyable hour. As a word painter and delinea tor ef human thought and impulse Mr. Izer is gifted, and whether in glowing imagery, sarcastic suggestion or im passioned appeal to the better naturei his language is faultless and delivery most appropriate. His discourse was closed by a fine tribute to that oldest and best of books the foundation and beginning of all literature the Bible. Our Methodist friends deserve praise for their enterprise in getting up tho course of lectures and wo only regret that a more general patronage waB not extended to them.

A large consignment of tho best brand Red Cross coal oil just received at Jno. Rodger's, Central Market. The following article from tho Demo crat and Chronicle, of Rochester, N". Y.. is of so striking a nature, and emanates from so reliable a source, that it is here with re-published entire. In addition to the valuable matter it contains, it wHl be found exceedingly interesting: To the Editor nj the Democrat and Chrenicle: Sir.: My motives for the publication of tho most unusual statements which follow are, first, gratitude for the fact that I have been saved from a most hor rible death, and, secondly, a desire to warn all who read this statement against some of the most deceptive Influences by which they have ever been surround ed. It is a fact that to-day thousands of people arc within a foot of tho grave and they do not know if. To tell how I was caught away from just this position and to warn others against nearing it, are my objects in this communication. On the first day of June 18S1, 1 lay at f my residence in this city surrounded by my friends and .waiting for death. Heaven only knows the agony I then endured, for words can never describe it And yet, if a few yrars previous, any one had told me that 1 was to be brought so low, and by so terrible a dis ease, 1 should havo scoffed at. the idea. I had always been uncommonly stroug and healthy, haa weighed over 200 pounds and hardly knew, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were. Very many people who will read this statement realize at times that they are unusually tired and cannot accouut for it. They feel dull and indefinite pains in various parts of the body aud do not understand It. Or they aro exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next This was just the way I felt when the relentless malady which had fastened itself upon me first began. Still I thought it was nothing; that probably 1 had taken a cold which would soon pass away. Shortly atter tills I noticed a dull, and at times neu ralgic, pain in my head, but as it would come one day and be gone the next, 1 paid but little attention to it However, my stomach was out of order and my food had often failed to digest, causing at times great inconvenience. Yet I had no idea, even as a physiciau, that these things meant anything serious or that a monstrous disease was becoming fixed upon me. Candidly, 1 thought I was suffering from Malaria and so doc tored m j self accordingly. But I got no better. I next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the fluids I was passing also that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, and that a persistent froth and scum ap peared upon the surface, aud a sediment settled in the bottom. And yet I did not realize my dancer, for, indeed, see ing these symptoms continually, I final ly became accustomed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the affected organs or in their vicinity. Why I should havo been so blind I cannot un derstand. -' There is a terrible future for all phys ical neglect, and impending danger usu ally brings a person to his senses even though it may then be too late. I real ized, at last, my critical condition and aroused myself to overcome it And, Oh! how hard I tried! 1 consulted the best medical skill in the land. I visited all the prominent mineral springs in America and traveled from Maine to California. Still 1 grew worse. No two physicians agreed ns to my malady. One said 1 was troubled witli spinal ir ritation; another, nervous prostration; another, malaria; another, dyspepsia; another, heart disease; another, general debility; another, congestion of the base of the brain ; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the symptoms of all of which I really hod. In this y several years passed, during all of which time 1 was steadily growing worse. My condition had really become pitiable. Tho slightest symptoms I at first experienced were developed into" terrible and constant disorders the lit tle (wigs of pain had grown to oaks of agony. My weight had been reduced from 207 to 130 pounds. My life was a torture to myself and friends. I could retain no food upon my stomach, and lived wholly by injections. I was a liv ing mass of pain. My pulse was uncon trollable. In my agony I frequently fell upon the floor, convulsively clutched the carpet, and prayed for death. Mor phine had little or no effect in deaden ing the pain. For six days and nights I had the death premonitory hiccough constantly. My urine was filled with tube casts and albumen. 1 was strug gling with Bright's Disease of the Kid neys in its last stages. While suffering thus I received a call from my pastor, the Rev. Dr. Foote, rec tor of St. Paul's.Church, of this city. 1 felt that jt was our last interview, but in the course of conversation he mentioned a remedy of which I had heard much but had never used. Dr. Foote detailed to me the many remarkable cures which had come under his observation, by means of this remedy, and urged mo to try it As a practicing physician and a graduate of the schools, I cherished the prejudice 'both natural and common with all regular practitioners, and de rided the idea of any medicine outside the regular channels being the least beneficial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote. that I finally promised I would waive my prejudice and try the remedy he so highly recommended. I began its use on the first day of June and took it according to 'directions. At first it sickened me-; but this I thought was a good sign for one in my debilitat ed condition. I continued to take it; the sickenlug sensation departed and 1 was able to retain food upon my stom ach. In a few days I noticed a decided proved condition that, upon what 1 had believed but a few days before was my dying bed, I vowed, in the presence of my family and friends, should I recover I would Doth publicly and privately make known this remedy for the good of humanity, wherever and whenever I had an opportunity. I also 'determined that I would give a course of lectures in the Corinthian Academy of Music of this city, stating in full the symptoms and almost hopelessness of my disease and the remarkable means by which I hare been saved. My Improvement wa3 constant from that time, and In less than three months I had gained 26 pounds In flesh, became entirely free from pain and I believe I owe my life and present condition wholly to Warner's Safe Kid ney and I.iver Cure, the remedy which! . I used. Since my recovery I have thoroughly re-Investigated the subject of khlney dlfiiculties and Bright's diseases, and the truths developed are astounding. 1 therefore state, deliberately, and as a physician, that I believe moke than OXE-HAI.F OF TIIK DEATHS WHICII OC CUR is America are caused bt Beigiit's Disease of the KtDXtYS. Tiiis may sound like a rash statement. but I am prepared to fully verify it. Bright's Disease has no distinctive symptoms of its own, (indeed, it often develops without any pain whatever in the kidneys or their vicinity), but has the symptoms of nearly every other known complaint. Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized by a physician's certificate of 'Ilcart Disease," 'Apoplexy," "Paralysis," "Spinal Complaint," "Rheumatism," "Pneumonia," and other common com plaints, when in reality it was Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. Few physi cians, and fewer people, realize the ex tent of this disease or its dangerous na ture. It steals into lie system like a thief, manifests Its presence by the com monest symptoms, and fastens itself upon the constitution before the victim is aware. It i3 nearly as herediatry as consumption, quite as common aud fully as fatal. Entire families inherit ing it from their ancestors, have died, aud yet none of tho number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removing them. Instead of com mon symptoms it 'often shows none whatever, but brings death suddenly, and as such is usually supposed to be heart disease. As one who has suffered, and knows by bitter experience what ho says, I implore every one wljo reads these words not to neglect the slightest symptoms of Kidney difficulty. Certain agony and possible death will be the sure result of such neglect, and no ono can afford to hazard such chances. I am aware that such an. unqualified statement as this, coming from me. known as I am throughout the entire laud as a practitioner jjnd lecturer, will arouse the surprise and possible- ani mosity of the medical profession and astonish all with whom' I am acquaint ed, but 1 make the foregoing statements based upon facts which 1 am prepared to produce and truths which I can sub stantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may possibly bo sufferers such as 1 was, is an ample inducement for me to take the step I have, and if 1 can successfully warn others from the dangerous path In which I onco walked, I am willing to endure all professional and personal consequences.
