Bays the New York Herald, died the other day, and in his last hour he con fessed that he had been a smuggler for forty-seven straight years and had baaten the government out of tenB of thousands of dollars. Hebtenstein, the late president of Switzerland, had a salary of 83,000 a year. He kept no carriage, and he used to walk to his office every day. The amount of work that he under took to do confined him to his desk and deprived him of that exercise which a man used in early life to out door activity requires. The maladay of which he died was senile gangrene, although he was only sixty-three years old. This was because he did not eliminate through exercise the waste matter that clogged his organism. Not long ago there were artillery ex periments .to be made. Hertenstein went to watch them. Ho stood on ialf-thawed ice. A chilblain ensued. This led to a bad inflammation of the great toe, which was removed, and gangreen followed. The left leg was cut off above the knee. Amputation relieved the pain, but the poison was too much in the system for this sur gical treatment to save life. Morbid symptoms showed themselves in the pit of the stomach. There were two days of lethargy, followed by'two days of delirious fever. The latter were, however, broken by lucid intervals in which the president gave directions about the current business of his office. He then sank, grew insensible and went out. Salem, Tillamook, And Astoria R. E. Fending the conference of the Salem board of trade committee and the officials of the Astoria & South Coast R. R, a letter showing the feel ing of the Tillamook people on the projected line is received in Salem from F. M. Lang of Nestocton, Tilla mook Co., who served as assessor of Tillamook county formerly and knows well of what be speaks. He says, among other things: "Noticing that your city is endeav oring to make an earnest move to ward cooperating with Astoria look ing to the building of a railroad to Tillamook, I wish to say that we are fully alive to the importance of such a road, but of course we are too poor to do much, yet something might be done by the citizens here in seuring a free right of way through the coun try. Much of the route, in fact nearly the whole of it, is through a contin ued succession of narrow valleys and passes, every foot of which is claimed and settled, and an earnest move in the matter on the part of our citizens might do a great deal toward easing the right of way, or might clear it altogether. I have traveled over the route several times and can say that it will be no trouble at all to build a road from Salem to Tillamook."

At a sparring ex hibition last night between Kilrain and Mitchell, rotten eggs were thrown at the principals from the gallery. THE UNION PAClrlO. New York, Jan. 11. It is again asserted that the "Union Pacific en gineers are actively engaged in look ing up routes for an extension from Ogden west to the Pacific coast. They have prepared reports on the advantages of both the i'erdonia and Beckwith passes through the Sierra Nevadas, the former being the moro favorable. The surveyors, instead of following the usual course through the Ferdonia pass from Mountain Meadows, turned more to the west and nround to Bridge creek. On this route the country is comparatively level and well timbered. It opens up a new country and does not paral lel the Central Pacific line. It con tinues to Madeline plains, sixteen miles distant, and turns northward to the south fork of Pitt river, in the southern part of Modoc county. From this point the route will be down the valley to Alturas, whence ouo spur will run north to Oregon and another southward to the northern end of the Sacramento valley, probably along the north fork of the Feather river to Oroville. It is the intention of the company to complete the line to San Francisco. FREIGHT RATES. New York, Jan. 11. R. P. Buck relates concerning the recent advance of freight rates: "We recently told a vessel at San Francisco for 517,000. that wonld have been worth about 512,000 here when she sailed." SULLIVAN KILRAIN. New York, Jan. 11. The text of the Sullivan-Kilrain agreement is printed. It is signed by Sullivan and by Harding for Ivilram. It is pro vided that the man winning the toss shall give the opposite party ten days' notice of the place. If either man shall be absent bo forfeits the battlo and money. The expenses for ropes and stakes shall be equally borne, share and Bhare alike, by the parties. me JNew iork Ultpper is mado tuo stakeholder, and deposits of 55,000 have been made. The final deposit must be put up not later than the day or the toss for the choice of battlo ground. Either party failing to make good the amount due at the lime and place named shall forfeit the money down. In case of magisterial interference the referee, if appointed, or tho stakeholder, shall name the next time and place of meeting; if possi ble on the same day or in the same week, and either party failing to ap pear at the time nud place specified by that official is to lose tho battlo money.
