Alice Hoover, of Eugene Cily, a respectable married woman, butpoor and friendless goes to the peniten tiary for selling without a license. Her three-months-old baby goes into prison with its mother.

His wife used to help herself occa sionally from his pocketbook, and what does, the hardened wretch do but put his pockotbook with a live mouse in a mouse trap every night.

T.. on Tuesday last, Maude, the 9-year-old daughter of Mr. Beach, who has a shingle mill near that town, while out playing with other children, took a newly sharpened butoherknife to cut a switoh.

The fish wheels at tho Cascades nro all ready for work, but will not do much tintil there is a rise in the river. l'olitios, politics; nothing but poli tics. Less politics and more pregress: less gab and more work would be bet ter. A road to the Seaside would beat out of sijrht the wonderfully im portant question of who is a good man to run for dog-catcher; bnt then folks ain't built that way.

The Tacoma Ledger publishes the statement that the Jltlterlon will load there 127,090 sacks wheat. Bah ! That may do to be copied into the Philadelphia Record, bnt it won't go down here. Wo will wager a week's salary against the Ledger editor's im mortal soul, that tho Slilcerlon won't take halt that amount; that Lo doesn't know how much a sack of wheat is, and will leave it to himself to decide the proffered wager. We are offering big odds, but are betting on a dead thing. The Oiegou is duo from San Fran cisco with the following passengers: H. Karm. D. Webster. Capt. II. T. Killman, Mrs. Wood, F.

Rescue No, 2 has a stuffed eagle. and a pelican, and an albatross, and a team ot mighty fine horses, and a brace of kangaroo dogs, and after to day it will have a lilacs bear Irom the wilds of Wahkiakum at its head quarters. The bear is only a baby yet, but after ho grows and gets to feeling good, and the dogs get their full size, it will be a bad placo for a man or boy to go fooling around. In tho meantime Jim Hare wants to know what next. After the horses and the dogs and the bear have been attended to and the furniture dusted off, it might bo well to get a Jersey cow or a couple of free trade sheep.

Tho National Zeitung says: Renewed efforts to obtain the consent of tho emperor to the marriage of his daughter Victo ria to Alexander of Battenburg have not been successful.

ItOSCOE'S EAB BOBH. New York, April 6. Ex-senator Roacoo Conkling hti3 been confined to I113 home with an abscess on tho right ear. His- physicians have or dered complete rest and quiet. But That VTas In 188 J. Orover Cleveland, the present pres ident of the United States, has an op portunity to go down to posterity in a blaze of glory second only to that of George Washington. After he was nominated for the presidency by the Democratic party he enunciated many sound doctrines in his letter ot accep tance. Une of these was to tno eneot that no president should bo eligible to tho second term of office. This statement of his was, without a doubt, the means of getting at least 550 men in New York state, who otherwise would have voted for Blaine, to vote for him. These votes made him pres ident, and if he should now accept a nomination, would it not look sus piciously like having obtained the presidency under a false pretense? Charleston, S.
