Mr. Quintex, an Indiana editor, dropped dead while praying for the souls of delinquent subscribers in Worth Manchester, Indiana, last Sat urday afternoon. Mr. Q. was, no doubt, foolish to pray for a class of unfortunates who are past praying for, but it does seem that in this case special providence overdid the busi ness. The chamber of commerco is think ing about getting up some pamphlets descriptive oi tne county, its resour ces, eta The idea is a good one. Bnt for every dollar Bpent that way there should be two dollars to get the pamphlets distributed where they will do some good.

The men, tne machinery, and everything else necessary for such work as that re quired on the Canby are here. All that is needed is the ways. For lack of ways 820,000 worth of that kind of work goes to Portland every year that might just as well be kent here. To build the proper ways would cost S2.000, which would pay for itself twice over tho first vear. Two young ladies of Portland went into a store last Tuesday where there was a galvanic battery, and tho pro prietor asked them to try it. Each grasped a pole of the battery, and wondered "why no shock was felt. The proprietor suggested that they kiss each other. They did so and then there was a shock indeed. One of the young women shrieked and fell over backward. Tne other made sonnd, but fainted. Cold water brought them both around, none the worse for the kiss. Mrs. A. E. Osgood, after vhitinc San Francisco, Boston and New York city, is now at . her native home, Rochester, N. Y., affected with seri ous throat trouble, from a cold con tracted on her arrival in that bleak eastern climate, shortly after a bliz zard.

She was met at Charlottenburg sta tion by the empress Victoria and her daughter, and the crown prince and prince Henry. The most affectionate greeting was accorded her. The route to the palace was decorated with flags and lined with people and members of the gymnastic and trade societies. Large crowds cheered en thusiastically. The emperor was asleep when the party arrived at the palace. The bouses along the route were illumin ated with candles, and thousands of torches were carried in the streets. Prince Henry and the Princess Irene held a reception last evening at the palace. The marriage ceremony was solemnized in the chapel of Charlotten burg castle to-day. All the bells iu Charlottenburg were rung at noon to announce that the ceremony had commenced and a salute of I5G guns were fired at 1230 which announced that the bride and bride groom had exchanged rings. Both the emperor Frederick and the dowager empress Agusta were present during the ceremony. Prince Henry and the crown prince were dressed in naval uniform. Thous ands of people were assembled out side the castle when the aged general Von Moltke arrived. He was enthu siastically greeted by the multitude.

A. Rowan had a warrant issued for the arrest ot A. L. Parker and A. L. Parker had a warrant issued for the arrest of J. A. Rowan. Two boys, named Hansen and Wallace, also figured in the row, the whole thing being a sequel to a disturbance some mornings ago, when milk cans and profanity filled the air; people living in the vicinity of the fracas thought the riot act should be read. Justice Cleveland fined both complainants 85 each and gave the boys a much needed lecture. By the time he had got the scales of justice dusted off, two rival depu tations from Miller's Sands knocked loudly at the portals of the temple. Their case and its statement occu pied nearly all day. Boiled down it seems that there are two rival crowds at Miller's Sands, the Elliott faction and the Jones faction. Charley Woods isn't there this year, but there is pretty near as muoh fun as .though he was. It is the daily delight and nightly custom of the two seining parties to cork each other, to lift the lead lines and let the fish pass through into the corker's net, and when remonstrated with, the re- monstrator is told to depart to Ha des, sic semper McGinnis, or words to that effect After listening to the testimony of the complaining witnesses against the five or six men who were arrested, and noting tho arguments of the counsel pro and con, until his nose bled, the justice took the case under advisement, and sought temporary seclusion. Five minutes after, this seclusion was interrupted by case number three, in the person ot one Miles Davitt, who carefully holding his eye in its proper position, stated that ho had been in a saloon engaged in sampling stock with a view to further purchase and on emerging was met by Albert Kennedy, ot Miller's Sands, who, without any preliminary remarks, hit him in the eye, seriously injuring that useful member. Mr. Kennedy was promptly arrested and will have an opportunity to ponr his tale into the capacious ear of justice at ten o'clock this morning. After this little interlude in the main performance the hour arrived at which time tho judge was to an nounce his decision, and as the sun was rushing madly down in the west, the judge decided that all the pris oners should he discharged but Jones and Kennedy; that Jones and Ken nedy be held to appear in the sum of $200 each to appear before tho next grand jury, and after giving them some fatherly advice regarding how brethren should dwell together in unity, the seance closed. At last accounts the whole party had buried tho hatchet with the handle left conveniently sticking up. An Explanatiou. What is this "nervous trouble" with which so many seem now to be af flicted? It you will reniember a few years ago tho word Malaria was com paratively unknown, to-day it isas common as any word in the English language, yet this word covers only the meaning of another word used by our forefathers in times past. So it is with nervous diseases, as they and Malaria are intended to cover what our grandfathers called Billionsness, and all are caused by troubles that ariso from a diseased condition ot the Liver which in performing its func tions finding it cannot dispose ot the b.le through tho ordinary channel is compelled to pass it off through the system, causing nervous troubles, Malaria, Billions Fever, etc. You who are suffering can well appreciate a cure. We recommend Green's Au gust Flower. Its cures are mar velous. A California Opinion. Sax Francisco, May 23. In a three column' editorial on Oregon politics. this evenings JSulletin says: It a victory in Oregon could be won be fore the meeting of the democratic national convention, a sort of current or drift, north and south, toward free trade could bo figured out, tuis is an the more necessary from the fact that the first of the elections held this year that of Rhode Island, on April 4. showed a decided republican reac- tiou. Oregon has, therefore, become a sort of index state for national con ventions. which are usually held in the month of June. In the course of time that state will probably find that the function of pointing out, or seem incr to rjoint out. the way for politi oians will be followed by a loss of self- control. An election coming oil at the date stated will always- for the reasons stated, invite interference from the outside. A Woman's Discovery. "Another wonderful discovery lias been made and that too by a lady in this county. Disease fastened its clutch es upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vi tal organs wero undermined and death seemed imminent.
