LOCAL RECORD. 1IOAKR OK TltADK OUIiANIKI). A Simcy Cask. The lime of Justice Humphrey, tills forenoon, was taken up with the case of the State of Oregon against Joshua Kicholls. Nicholls was arrested yesterday bjr Deputy Poyncs Turner and brought to Albany last even ing. According to the testimony as far as heard by a Democrat man, the circum stances of tho case were about as follows: Willie Nicholls was the sun of his father, Joshua, and they lived near District 92 in the precinct of Sweet Home. By courtesy William had been going to school in that district, but he was a bad boy, quarrelsome in nature and had a desperate fight and then refused to submit to punishment, when the teacher, a lady, expelled him, and the directors sustained her in the action. Joshua demanded a rehearing and an last Monday forenoon, directors Wiley and Sturdevant met with him on the school house grounds, when, accoiding to the tes timony of the directors, he became abusive and disturbed the peace of the school for an hour or two, among other things telling Director Sturdevant tiiat he would stick to the teacher like a tick to a nigger, and that if he wanted to step in the teach er's shoes they would go into the road, step off ten paces and fire with revolvers, and that he would shoot with him or Jerry Shea or any of them, and a large amount of other stuff of a sensational nature. The defense endeavored to 6how that the di rectors were also mixed up in the disturb ance, but they seemed to be reliable men who only had the interest of the school at neart. With his usual sagacity Justice Humphrey grasped the cow by tbn horn and fined the prisoner $10 and costs, amounting in all to nearly 9100, as there were eeveo witnesses present, l'eoplo who endeavor to go behind decisions nf school directors geoerally come out second best. Through tiik Coi ntry. An Albany gentleman who has been out through the county, returned home last evening and re ports crop prospects as uncommonly good. Farmers have generally completed seeding as well as summer fallowing, and are now attending to their gardens, of which you will find one attached to nearly every farm in the county. It is a fact, by the way, that our farmers arc a much more industrious and thrifty class than many give them credit for being. Great improvement has been noticeable in the last few years. They know they must make the small things count, and are much more careful in keep ing machinery than in former years. Fallen Flat. A St. Louis drummer, in the cify to-day, who has just traversed California, says the boom at San Diego and Los Angeles has fallen completely Hat, and he got out just before it fell, saWng himself on several Investments. He states that there will not be over a fourth of a crop of wheat in the San Joaquin Valley, and in the Sacramento Valley not over half a crop. Californians are blue over matters. Blown Ui A gentleman who came down from Ilarrisburg this morning in forms us that last night the safe in the de pet at that city was blown up by burglars and $100 in money and some valuable pa pers taken. No clue to the burglars. Pioneer l)iAi. Hon. J. R. South who has been lying ill nt his residence near Halsey died yesterday morning and was buried to-day at Providence Church in the Forks of the Santiam. He was a man of many sterling qualities. New Millinery Goods. The Misses Howard, now on Broadalbin street,, just north of Conrad Meyers, have just receiy ed an elegant slock of millinery goods direct from New York, which the public is invited to call and inspect. Camp Meeting. The Sanctificatlonists are holding a big camp meeting at Oakville, with tents pitched in the grove near Mr St John's. Revs Jones, Gould and Gardner aiff conducting it. On the Street. A letter from Browne ville states that Mr O P Coshaw is up and on the street again, and was not as ill as reported anyway. Lost. Thursday evening on Ferry or Fifth Street between the PostofHce and Walnut Street a ladies' breast pin with Masonic charm attached with short chain. Leave at Postollice. Wells Duo. Wells dug on reasonable terms. Call on the undersigned or at this office. E. B.Davidson. The meeting last evening was called to order at 8:30, by the chairman, Judge Powell. Minutes of the previous meet ing were read and approved. Dr. Maston moved that the Hoard pro ceed to permanent organization by the election of oflicers prescribed by the con stitution and by-laws. Carried. On motion, Judge Powell was made temporary chairman, and Jay Hlain, tem porary secretary. S. E. Young was nominated for perma nent president, the rules were suspended and the secretary cast the ballot of the Hoard for Mr. Young. J. L. Cowan and N. II. Allen were named for 1st and 2d vice-presidents and elected by acclamation. Mr. Jay W. Blain was elected secretary and treasurer in the same unanimous man. ner Mr. Wolverton moved that the constitu tion and by-laws, as prepared by the com. mlttee, be adopted. After being read, they were unanimously adopted and the organization was completed. Mr. D. P. Mason jumped to his feet and set the ball rolling by reading a communi cation from State Superintendent McElroy in reference to the National Teachers' Association to be held In San Francisco, the meeting of which will afford an oppor tunity for the counties of the state to tend immigration literature there, where there will be a committee to distribute the same, and an effort made to get Eastern teachers to return home by way of Oregon. To do this it will take money, to secure which was the object of the communication. It was received and placed on Hie, when Mr. Mason moved that the Board donate $25 for the object. It was laid on the table after some discussion until Monday evening, as some thought it best to have some money in the treasury first, though all recognized the fact that the scheme will be a splendid one for advertising the Willamette Valley, and at least theamount named will be voted at the meeting on next Monday evening, to which time an adjournment was had. The following is the list of the members now enrolled.

Weather ford, Burkhart ft Miller. A Wild Young Man. Some weeks ago Mrs. Morgan, who lives near Philo math, says the Leader, received some $S, oooalimony by decree of court. Her son William has been having a good time with some of it. lie spends it with a free hand, The last escapade he has been guilty of was a spree at Philomath last week. He got raving wild and smashed a show case worth a2 and was hnallv arrested and locked up. He got a match and set fire to to his bedding in the jail, and would have been burned to death if the fire had not been discovered in time to be extinguished He smashed the stove and tore off the door casing with which he pried open the bars ot the window humcicnlly to escape. A Joke. When the popular baggage man at the O. & C. depot went to his desk the other day lie found on it a neat pack age addressed to "Hon. A. D. Barker,Presi dent of the Albany Street Railway Com pany." With great expectancy Mr. Barker opened the package, when, lo and behold a large link of bologna sausage, about the size of street car links, met his astonished gaze. Mr. B. thinks the sausage was one brought across the plains ii, 1S40, and. as he always appreciates u good tiling, laughs heartily at the joke. Exorcised. A gentlemen from Tan gent says some of the farmers in the vicln Ity of that place are much exorcised over the way several Albany sportsmen visit that vicinity ou Sundays and slaughter Chinese pheasants, often killing them and leaving their carcasses or the ground, just for the fun of the thing. Some of them say there is liable to be one or two arrests unless the proceedings are stopped. $jo fine is not an easy one for everybody to pay. Freight. Considerable through freight from California now passes north, probably fifty cars a week, w hich, in the present con dition of the track over the Siskiyou's is about all the road wishes to handle. Be sides an increase of tariff over the other routes keeps down the extent of the traffic. Home. Mrs Walter Mouteith returned home this morning from an extended visit in Oakland, Cttl., where she was the guest of Mr John Barrows, accompanied by Miss Ella Barrows, whom we hope will return the compliments and remain with her many friends in Albany several months.

Sey eral men standing near rushed frantically to nis rescue, uamagc, nominal. Runs Sometimes. There is a plain looking young man from California in the city who runs foot races once in awhile; bin he doesn t seem to be able to keep up with some of the Albany boys. We'll wager our old inkstand he can give any body in Albany twenty feet in a hundred yards' run and come out ahead. Hotel Arriv Ja, Revere House.--J Nicholls, Sweet Home; lohn Caplin.
