I CAUTION ANY ONE FROM TRUSTING my wife Mrs. A. C.Wills, as sho has left my bed and boarding without just "cause. She Is the daughter of Mrs. Velman. G.W.WILLS. . May 14th, 'ST. RAEraXRII MkRAfl III I BBSs awy sm LAUGHING MATTEES. A gentleman residing on Abeer- J deen street was, until Friday last, says an exchange, mclined to favor female suffrage. His wife had prudently delayed moving until after the first, so as to t.ke advan tage of the fall of rents. The house to which they moved had a tremendously steep flight of stairs and an oil-clothed hall. The wife had the stairs scrubbed down, and left the soap on "the top step. Her husband was up stairs, with a basketful of clothespins in one hand and a clock under the other arm; when his wife who was down stairs, saw a mouse, and shaking her skirts madly, bounded up on the table, let off a series of shrill shrieks beginning on high ZZZ above the clef. ITer husband thinking the house was on fire, at the very least, started to run to her rescue, and stepping on the piece of soag that she had so thoughtfully left on the stairs,'sat down vehementl' at the top of the flight, and slid down with the speed of thought. Fire flew from his false teeth as he hit the edge of each step; volleys of clothes pins were discharged in the air, and fell rattling and and rebound ing on the oil-cloth, and the clock shed its inwards over the universe. The injured husband had little time for reflection when he reached the polished oil-cloth of the hall and shot across it with scarcely diminished velocity, literally mak ing the oil-cloth and the seat of his pantaloons smoke with friction, and finally bringing up against the door with a violence which 'threat ened lo burst the side of the house. The fearful concussion startled his wife, who turned a back 2omer.nuit from the table into a tub of soap suds, in which she was so tightly wedged that she had to throw a handspring and canter on all fours, like a turtle, with a tub on her back and cataracts of suds inun dating her. Meanwhile, the hired woman fell off the step ladder with a crash like a pile driver, and jarred down most of the plaster cornice. Whqn the man's wife had sloughed her tub, she saun tered calmly into the hall and remarked, "Well, men are the clumsiest and the hall ha3 jusr been washed, too." Her busbii d did not say much, but he tho irit a good deal; and now he shj-, just let Susan B. Anthony come and lecture here again, and if no other man has tho courage to hiss, he will, so help him Jasper Packle merton. Columbia Oonntv Criminalities. Frank Berico, who bit the ear off a man named Wallace at Wal lace's island, some months ago, pleaded guilty Saturday in the circuit court at St. Helens before Judge Frank J.

Salem, May 16 --The state printer finished printing the ses.; sion laws to-day, five days before the expiration of the time allowed by law, and they were delivered to the binder this afternoon. The laws make a volume of 450 pages, and the typographical work is ex cellent throughout. From 1859 until 1878 the state printer was required to bind tho laws within ninety da'S after adjournment of the legislature, but since loYo the binding has been under the con trol of tho secretary of state, no time being prescribed within which it should be completed. To meet a general wish that the laws shall be ready for distribution by the time when thoy take effect, .all other state work has been laid aside at the bindery, and the bind ing of the laws has already begun. Secretary McBride says he expects to deliver a copy to every circuit and county court by May 21st, nnd will distribute the remaining copies every few days, as fast as they are bound. The public offi cers will be supplied before any copies will be sold to private per sons. Tho senate journal index will be printed this week, and the printing of the houso journal will then be begun.
