Pat was led to be lieve that if It was not removed at once it would explode, and he lost no time in toting it off at break ueck speed. Doe Brown and 8. B.

We are turpris d to note the difference In the price paid in lavor of Arlinirton. This does not trenethen theFosnil paper's argument to any great extent in its Aglit against .rjlingtuii. . Couiity court meets" at Condon next week. Remember ; tliat , the probate court biiKiiiee by the county Judge is always held on Mondays and Tuesday of court week. Commissioners court com mence on Wednesdays, which attend to all the road business, allowing' of billt etc, etc. A Nevada exchange saya: "If cattle get bloated put A handful of peper in the nostrils. The violent sneezing that ensiles will enable the animal to get rid of the gat In the stomach, and all will be well." Remember thin and give it a trial the next time an animal gets an overdose of anything. A Roseburg lady knocked an insolent sewing-machine agent down and tilled him full of lead from hit own pistol the other day. Folks aren't surprised at anything In a woman nowadays, but it wat funny that the bullets penetrated the agent's skin. He must have been new at the business. Ex. There it tome talk at Condon of rais ing a subsidy at an Inducement for the editor of tbit paper to ride his bicycle on a rope stretched from the top of the Armory ball to the top of Moddock't hotel on the Fourth. We have not yet decided to perform the feat, itdepeuding largely upon the size of the tubsldy. Nearly all the sheepmen who told their wool have received the cash for it, which It a big item. In former year they usually had to wait six mouths for their money. Now they can pay their help and pay cash for their supplies, which helps the merchants and conse quently helps the whole county to a certain extent. The Lakeview Examiner boosts a show as follows; "Rugglea circus (?) gave a performance to a small audience Tues day night. This Is the flfih time he has bowed in thit town and there hat not been a tingle change in the program dur ing that time, other than it it getting worse. They ought to be run outof town the next time they come." Wm. Black, wboowne a good ranch between Mayville and Fossil, left last week with a 0-horse team and wagon on the lookout for a new location. It ap pears that he did not tell hit family or anyone where he wat going, and the supposition Is that be it bound for Al berta, Canada, to which country he hat been thinking of going for tome time. A man over in Lone Rock went to his cow-stabie the other night and by mistake fixed her up a nice mash in a box of sawdust instead of bran. The cow merely supposed that bard times had come and they were all going to economize so the meekly ate her supper and the man never discovered his mis take until the next morning when be milked the cow and got half a gallon of turpentine. Billy Barr hat a fine $75 Victor bicy cle, which he will rallle off at bis saloon this week, commencing tomorrow, for 60. The cost of the numbers will run from about 10c to f 1, and there will be about 76 numbers in all. It will tie raf fled on July 4th by high dice (3 dice 3 times). This is an excellent chance to win a good bicycle for a few cents. Call around and try your luck before the num bers are all sold. A young woman at Astoria whose husband had been miming five days, hearing that the body of a man had been found in the river, at once decided that it was that of her spouse. She im mediately went to town ami without troubling herself to identify the remains, ! spent f 16 buying crape and material for a mourning dross. When she reached home she found her husband making a pot of tea at the kitchen fire. The Scio, Linn county. Press says: "Some days ago E. P. Weir and son, "Chub" came in from Gilliam county via W. V. A C. M. wogon road. They report quite a rough trip, having to bass over ten or twelve miles of snow. It snowed upon them the whole of one day at they came over. On Wednesday they and A. J. Shelton started with a large bunch of young cattle for tho home of Mr. Weir, and near whom A. J. owns a large ranch, and where they propose to engage In the cattle business extensively. John Riesinger, a bright young Aus trian, who has been going to school in this country for the last five years and who has just graduated In the Portland Business College, came up from Portland this week and expects to stay at Condon the next two months. His health Is not very good and a physician advised him to come to our high and healthful climate for a change. We understand his par ents In Austria are very wealthy, and that they desire to start him up in bus iness in America. He is a guest at Maddock'a hotel, A good old Methodist lady attending services in an Episcopal church At The Dalloa recently became happy under the preaching of the word and ejaculated "Glory I" She was admonished to keep quiet by two of tho brethren and nod ded assent, but soon becoming .forgetful responded "Hallelujah 1" The brethren again called her attention to the annoy ance and told her that if she did not keep quiet they would be compelled to remove her. The sermon proceeded and the old lady became very happy and forgetful of her surroundings shouted out "Glory to God I" This was too much for the brethren and they tried to lead her out; but she refused to walk, so they carried her. On the way (he naid : "I am honored above my Miiter, for while be was earned by an ass, I am carried ly two." PROGRAM OF THE DAY AT CONDON ON JULY 4, 1895. ANVIL FIRING AT HUN RISE.
