LOCAL RECORD. A Private Picnic At a recent meet ing of the Oregon City board of trade, the board discussed at length the advisability of asking the Southern 1'acllic Railroad Com pany to put on local trains from Salem, or some other point, so as to accommodate the Oregon City passenger traffic. The idea prevailed that the community and others along the line would be well served by starting a train from Salem at 6 a. m. to arrive at Portland at 8 a. m'., then return atioa. tn., reaching Salem at u a. m. Leaving Salem again at I p. in. to reach Portland at 3 p. m. and return at 5 p. m., reaching Salem at 7 p. m. daily. Journal. This looks as if our neighbors down the road were trying to get up a little railroad picnic party of their own. If there is going to be any extra trains Albany is the proper terminus, not because it is Albany, but because it is the outlet for many sec tions of the Valley, and would double the amount of business. Albany people also would like the advantage of return tickets. Hut we predict there is not much danger at present of an accommodation train. Lots ok Work. Twelve or fifteen men arc at work on the St, Charles hotel. Car. penters, brickmasons, plasters, painters and laborers being busy. The job is a large one ; but when completed a good hotel building will be the result. Nearly twenty men are at work on the Koshay & Mason and Twee dale block, and vc understand some one has figured it out that it takes over a gross of pills a day to pay the druggists share of the wages paid. Nearly as many men are at work on the Strahan and Pearce Block which will be pushed with a rush. These all make a lively appearance on r'irst St. Piles of brick along the street put a lively appearance into matters. Albany's pros perity this summer is a reliable one. Lauiie Stewart i. Sox have just ic ' ceived the biggest shipment of iron that ever ' came to Linn couuty. Bctwoeu twenty and thirty thousand pounds of round, square, flat and band iron is now stored away iu their warelouae. On account of their largo invoices of goods they are doing a good j wholesale business all through this part ef the valley. Business men in neighboring places oan do as well, if nut better, for their rents are cheaper with them than at Port land, and the freight is less. This city is bound to develop mto a wholesale center in time. Its location and facilities point strong ly that way A Sensible Way. Ilecuutly a rich Culi ' foruia bachelor visited his sister-in-law, re siding a few miles from Albauy. The guod lady is a widow, and while hero the gentle man learned that a mortgage of $2000 hov ered over her property. This he good ca. turcdly paid otf and presented his sister-in-law with a receipt for the same. Ho said he didn't know of suy better way to spend his money, aud he was about right. There are - too many men in this world who wait till . after they uie, and then let the lawyers run things. Divorce Papers Instead There was a man named Hrooks, says a Salem paper ' who claimed to reside at 4S6 High street, this city, went to Lafayette, a few days since, where his wife was visiting her , father, to bring that personage (his wife) back home. Arrived there, his father-in-law drove him off the place with a shot f" run. lie went to McVlinnvillc to secure cgal aid but was unsuccessful on account of having no money, and returning to La fayette, was served with divorce papers. i A Condition. The lights were low, the hour was late, the popping time had ' come ; and, gazing idly nt the grate, her love sat chewing gum. She asked him if he'd always go to Conn Brothers, In this city tor Ills groceries ana produce as they carry only fresh goods and do business on the square. It is needless to say the match Was consummated. Lebanon Express Items. Prof Hunt, started for San Francisco yesterday to at tend the Teachers Association II. Y. Gibson, left yesterday for San Francisco, ".'where he will make "his future home.... Mrs R F Jones and daughter, Sarah, left for Albany, Monday,where thev will make their future home. Guilty. Smith Cox, who Is in the city to-day, admits the accusations made against him in reference to building a house on his Santiam farm ; hut does not seem to be very well posted about its use. Smith deserves good company in Its occu pancy. A fill: lino of Dr. Prioos C.-eam Baking ard delicious Havo:ino extracts at IWaLUOK & Tlt')IP.';,1x's, Saturday Nu.iit. During the week our farmers and merchants and everybody had the wits frightened out of them almost by a very wet rain storm that came with out any help from the weather flag. It only lasted one night though, and has been followed by as good weather as the most sagacious farmer could have planned him self. ...A tramp medicine man, with a scaly looking dog cart and tired looking horse, was In the city this morning, and was duly interviewed by the M. A. T. who found that he had a medicine that would cure diphtheria, catarrh, rheumatism, etc., etc., one that he thought out all himself. It had cured him of all these diseases, and he knew, and all he asked was a dollar a bot tle, It Is to be hoped ine one will buy, sohecanbjv a new pair of shoes.... A deaf and dumb man has been in the city during several days with a patent kerosene enn and blacking imisn and nox-hoiucr. He seems to possess the virtue of at least perseverance and sells an article that does more than some do, speaks for Itself. A Tacoma Marvel. Tacoma is some. what excited over a very remarkably form ed little girl, about who.n the Ledger, of that city speaks as follows : "One of the greatest marvels ever witnessed in this city was to be seen at the olfice of Dr. McCoy last evening. It is a prodigy which has puzled all the doctors and scientists that have made it a study. This wonder is Lily May Dowdcn, the child contortionist, a daughter of David Dowdcn. All the joints of her limbs and body, with the exception of the elbow joints, arc so constructed that they will work in any way. The fingers are as readily bent backward as forward, and the hands, feet and legs can be turned and bent in any conceivable, airection. She can stand and without moving her feet, turn the body and look in any direction. She is now but 6 years old, and Mr. Dow den has been offered $75 in gold to allew her to go on the stage at the Casino for half an hour, but refused it." IIoi-s. The Willamette Valley Hop Growers' Association held a meeting in Salem yesterday afternoon at the office of W, J. Hcrren. About thirty hop-growers from various parts of the Valley were pres ent The rate of picking hops was fixed at 40 cents per box of fifty pounds. Arrange ments were made by which the members of the association will receive, weekly, through the Secretary, the latest reports concerning the condition of the hop mark et and crop prospects. Cloth for baliing purposes will also be bought through an agent. A gentleman from Eugene, who was present, stated that he would make an effort to organize a branch association. The association adjourned to meet at the same place Saturday, August nth. Second the Motion.

The number of fire alarms iu Albany should be an alarming cry to peo plo to insure their property.

Portland has been having a stormy time over its school snperintendeney. Prof Craw ford was discharged and Prof Sawyer, a Massachusetts man, elected principal of the high school in his place.

The contested election case of Fenton against Scott, was tried before Judge Bean in Eu gene last Tuesday and Wednesday. Judge Bean opened the ballot boxes and re-counted all the votes for Scott and Fenton. By his count the undisputed votes made it a tie, but the attorneys for Scott claim that a Dum ber of votes that were not ceunted should have been counted for Scott, which would give him a larger plurality than certified by the judges ot election, judge Bean took the cafe under advisement, and will mske his decision in perhaps ten days .
