Hour fiiom Skatixb When the 7.45 traio camo in Saturday evoning a largo crowd was present at tho depot to tntut the Albany hose li aui ou ill return from Seattle, crowned with an cucullMit record. The boys jumped from the train with root ten and Hying colore. The roosters wore on their hats and tho colors on their coats. Tho latter read, "Speed Kace Champion, Time 27 1-5." Thia wa not enough for the toarr. "Paddle Wheel,'' Jack Warner, who waa il. luminatcd with the iuacription, "It is a cold day when we get left." Wo suspected the boya were auxiotia to have 1'ortlaud'a awiu. dling firemen ace them aa they camo through that city. The hose ti'Uin waa conducted to the Murry house, where at 0 o'clock a fine aupper waa tendered tho team by Mayor Cowan on behalf of the city. About forty act down to it, among tho number being a hungry Dkmociiat man. Tho spread waa a line ouo and waa greatly appreciated. When tbo inner man had been satisfied Chief Ko g'noor Webber addreaacd tho company, and waa followed by Mayor Cowan, C W Watts, John liotfinan, W E Gillett, Councilman Writsman, the Democrat mauand Mr Geo Chainplain. The latter, who waa a rosi dent of this city and a member of No 2 s ten or twelve years ago, road an original poem, full of personal hita. An adjournment to the atreota followed, when sky rockota aud Roman caudles illumiuatod tha aky for sever al miuutes, aa an outward crow over the vic toriea won. When the tournament closod at Seattle there waa a general feeling that Albany had tho beat team there, though Spo kano Falls took the most honora. At Scio- As announced last week the celebration at Scio was a great success, a lively time being had. Beside the spread eagle part there were several contests that elicited great interest. The egg race was won by Riley Bilycu. Prize, $i. Manny Miller captured the prize of $i In the wheel barrow race. A 1 50 yard foot race for firemen was won by John Cary, Wirt Bren ner second and Frank Morris third. Prizes, $5, $2 and $1. The 200 vnrd race was won by Riley Bilycu, Wm Brenner second, Alley Ewing third. A very peculiar, but exciting firemen's race was run. It was be. tween the II & L Co., who ran 147 yards andgota man to the top of a ladder, and a hose team, to run 100 yards, unrcl 200 feet of hose and get water. The former won, of course, in 29 seconds, As Incipient Blaze. At about 10:30 o'clock Saturday evening a ring of the (ire bell broughtout the firemen of the city, and enginea and trucks were hurried into the street, when the announcement waa made that the liro was out. It transpired that a blaze had been discovered iu the loftof John ny Sell moor's livery stable, which was put out with an old pair of pautr. It waa thought it was started from a sky rocket tired by the firemen about half an hour previous; but the location of the fire makea thia impossible, aud there! waa no rocket around. It was more likely of an incendiary origin, or by careleac ncss on the part of some one in the loft. Tiik Snow. About one hundred fifty people attended the presentation of the "Wages of Sin," at the Opera House, Sat urday night by the Adcle Payne troup The play merited a larger house. The act ing was of a good order and better than much that we sec here, though one or two parts could have been Improved by local talent. The leading performers though are good artists and give an excellent enter tainmcnt. The report circulated in the afternoon that the troup had a quarrel at Eugene and was nearly broken up, was not true. They were not in that city at all. State Fair Grounds. Things arc be ginning to look lively at the fair grounds. The bay is being cut and gathered into the barns. Work Is steadily progressing on the track, and twenty-two trotters are In constnnt training. Of these Jay Beach has eleven, Jno Pender eight, and VV II Mann three. Thetrncklsin good training con dition, nnd it is expected there will be more stublcs there soon. AGf.nti.eman. The members of "Al bany hose team prono.ince Chief Engineer Collins, of Seattle, one of the finest gentle men they ever met, and are highly pleased at the splendid treatment they received at his hands. Saturday evening at the supper they unanimously gave him a vote of thanks for the many courtesies extended them. A University Guard. "Miss Julia Chamberlain, of Salem, has been elected music teacher in thcTcrrltornl University, nt Seattle, and Bill Watk!nds,oncc a super intendent of the Oregon penitentiary, is now a guard in that institution." Itcmitcr. Wonder what thev need a guard like Wat kinds in the Seattle University for. A Duul with A ilEAtt. A good story Is told of Hank Vaughn by parties who have recently come down from his part of the cuuntry. Hank was presented some time since with a nice, good-sized bear. Ic took a particular delight in his present, and be ing naturally fond of animals, made quite a pet of bruin. One day Hank came home somewhat the worse for liquor aud upon his arrival nt the house met his wife, who signified her Intention of leaving him sil or.ee, as he would not remain sober. Tills grieved Hank ycry much 60 he resolved to light a duel with brnin and kill or get kill ed. So he secured his large bowic knife and departed forthwith to have bruin for supper. The bear got his optic on the blade and appreciated the proposition thor oughly. Hank made up his mind tiiat the bear should have some advantage and so relieved him of his chain and collar. Then the battle commenced ; but bruin was too quick for him anil at once began an attack on the northeast aection of Hank's panta loons, and made quick and effective work of it. Then Hank got it on the nose, on the head and under the chin. To be brief, for Hank was brief, he did not stay long. Bruin won the fight and the only way I lank got even was to get in at the upstairs window and take a "shot at the "b'ar." Hank's wife thinks a great deal more of him now than ever Portland Ex.- Uslai. Experience. We mentioned recently the starting of a newspaper at Tillamook Bay. The following indicates that the editor has had the usual experi ences. He says "that newspaper men have rights of their own i. c., to run their own paper. Bluster and bully will not curbus, as we propose doing pretty much as we please with our machine, but at the same time shall strive to please the people. A newspaper man who can please everybody is no man nt all, and is unlit for a hanging bee his brain is so small that a mustard seed would look like an elephant by the side of it. We want ail the items we can get, but must have them in season. Type for a newspaper can't be set in a minute, like jerking the hide off a cat. Give us a show and we will give you a good paper." Luck. As an illustration of what is sometimes called "luck" is Instanced the fortunes of Purser Downing of the "Idaho.' He and two others left their native Massa chusetts hills at the same time, and struck the Columbia riverat the same time. They all got steamer employ. He happened to se put on the "Idaho" on the A'aska route. About two years ago he, with four others, put $125 in a venture in the shape of what was believed to be a gold mine. Last week the hve partners seld their mine for $2,030,000, gold coin, purser Dowmng's share is Scco.ooo. The other two are still rustling here for so much or so little a montli. 1 hat may not be luck, but it looks very much like what some folks would deem ;uck to oe.AstoriH. LebanoV Items. Mr Hardy Informs us that the prospect of the telegraph from here to Albany is good. Friends take hold. We must boom this....Donaca & Hearing, of Sweet Home, are to resume work on their coal mine. There Is an abundance of a bituminous nature in their mines, says one 01 me owners, jjick watklns and Sam Hearing, blacksmiths in Swtet Home, claim that the coal in these mines burns better than the Cumberland coal. Express. Gone. We neglected to mention sev eral weeks ago that the young men who run the barracks had left Albany. Whither we know not, nor do vc care. The advice given from the start by the Democrat, to leave tnetn alone was loiiowcd, and tney were obliged to quit living on nothing. Curious Purses. An Oregon Pacific railroad man makes money purses out of moles. He cuts off the heads, turns them wrong side out, dries them, fixes the open" ing, and a purse that will last a life time is the result. The fur of the mole is among the finest found. Why. Why is hard burned brick heav icrthan light burned brick. That is a ques tion warmly discussed by several learned men of this city. Various reasons of a solid character were given, but ones like this,"it is more buoyant" rather took the lead. CountyJudueship. A complete recan vass of the vote for County Judge Is being made in the County Clerk's office this after noon. Already several mistakes have been found. Weather Report.

MrLBilven has the Democrat's thanks for a nicely gotten up pamphlet ou Lane coun ty. It is a credit to the Board of Trade tint compiled it. Prof Mitchell olojed a successful term of school this side of Lebanou last week. Mr M is talking of going into some other busi ness. A one Icstied daraey gave a street concert in this city a few nights ago. He had a very melodious voice and received a large number of dimes for his trouble. Rev J W Harris has just had completed a very neat two story house of eight or nine rooms in the Uuiversity addition, and moved into it a day or two siuce. Salem Journal. Mr and Mrs G L Black man and daughter and James Powell returned from Yaquina Bay to-day. We understand tlio gentlemen had a live time going over the bar, parting with thsii breakfist without a murmur. Mr Oeorga Vassalo has bought Mr. Henry Suesens' painting business in this city, aud will he found at Mr Sueaens' former place. Mr Vassalo is a thorough painter and the publio will do well to try him. Mr Race has let the contract to Conn & Cogle of straightening op the St Charles hotel, aud these gentlemen began work this morning. The foundation is being given a complete overhauling. The Albany cannery is running day and night and is putting up a large amount of fruits. Fully 5000 oases will be the result of the seasons work. This represents quite an industry, and one that should bo supported Saturday recorded the driving of the last spike in making connections by rail aoross the Willamette at Portland via the new rail road bridge. This completes the band of iron from Portland, Oregon, proper, to Port land, Maine. To-day "Jim Wettfall" returned from Portland. He showed a Democrat man the picture of the yonng lady to whom he is to be married next Sunday. She dresses like Americans, woara bangs and can talk English better than Jim, having been in the service of white people for many years. Coll Van Cleve. editor of the Yaquina Post, waa in the city this morning on his way home from Portland, where be had been with his family, who continued to Baker City, where Mrs Van Cleve's mother is residing, an old aud infirm lady. Coll reports things very dull at the Bay; yet ne thinks tne time will come when that country will be full of lite. IIAKKISriUIMi.
