AN 1IOSORAI1I.SCOKHEKTONBST.- -The Waterloo correspondent of the Lebanon Erprest talks as follows : "It was report ed here Sunday that it was generally be lieved in Albany that there were no con veniences to be found at Waterloo. The readers of the Express are aware that this is a mistake, and for the benefit of the read ing public we will say that it is well to sub scribe for a paper that shows In Its social columns as well as its advertising columns Tills the Express Is honorable enough to do, VVaterlooo has the following accommoda tions : A hotel, a feed stable, and a first class country store, where one will find groceries, provisions and all kinds of can ned goods, and in fact nearly everything needed by campers and tourists." Now, fu the first place Albany people know ex actly what accommodations there are at Waterloo. The Dkmocrat has kept them posted for a great many years. It always lias in a general way allowed correspon dents to give the business of their respec tive places, and is glad to have them do so; hut it does not allow them to run tree ads. in their Items, and neither will the Express man when he has had the experience we have. No live paper allows it. It is all right to say Mr bmith is running a store at Waterloon, but it is not to say that "Mr. Smith, the popular grocer, has a first class stock of canned goods, produce, etc. 'Call on him when in the burg, etc." That is sponging something for nothing for others und is what the correspondent of the Ex press has been trying to do with the Dkmo crat for years, if weare not grandly mis taken in tnc identity ot the gentleman. Takk a Drink. Yesterday afternoon old Sol was in his glory, and when old Sol Is In Ills glory it is always the reverse with ones throat, A Democrat man saunter ing like a snail or a messenger boy past the Postal Telegraph office was taken pity on by the handsome operator and invited to come in and have a nice cold drink of ice water. There was the pail on the floor with a lump of congealed Northpole in It, and on a hook In the wall was a tin cup. The 1). M. Innocently reached for the cup ; but concluded not todrink for a moment on account of an Edisonan warning in the shape of a small sized earthquake that permeated him for the sixteenth part of a second. A second effort brought the cup to time, resulting in a very refreshing drink. The cup was dropped on the hook In returning it to its place. The hook, you see, was connected with a battery through the adjoining room. One callous handed old farmer was invited to drink, and of course accepted the invitation. He never winced, but took his drink and returned the cup as if nothing had happened. The joke was on the other side then. The arrange ment was gieatly appreciated by the large number innocent enough to get taken in. 8 o'clock. Twe or three Independent merchants at Salem have begin closing their stores at Salem at 8 o'clock except on Saturday nights. As it seems to be Im possible to obtain any united effort in Al bany on the subject it Is to be hoped the same rule will be followed here by mer chants who believe clerks are entitled to a little freedom in this world. The public will appreciate their humanity and give them enough extra business during the day to make up for the very small amountthey might possibly lose. Anick Party. You may read that both ways, nioe and ico. The latter, though, only eODinti of the ice cream, for the enter tainment part of it was dileotly the contrary. It was held last evening at the reaidenoeo! Hon S M Pennington, and was given by the Young People' Christian Endeavor Society, of the Baptist ohuroh, members of tome of the other Endeavor societies being invited guests. Those who attended pronounce it an uncommonly enjoyable afftir. Games, sociability and a very palatable lunch waa the program. Chicken Pir. A very enjoyable chick en pic and Ice cream lawn social was held at the M. E. parsonage last evening. Bet ter chlchen pie was never eaten by an editor or Methodist minister on a circuit, and the Icecream was just the opposite to the sociability, one was cold and the oihtr warm. The attendance was good and the receipts nattering. Total Eci.ipse.--A total eclipse of the moon will take place at Albany to-morrow night, according to the following program : Moon enters penumbra, 6:44 ; p. m. ; en ters shadow, 7:43 j total eclipse begins, VM ; total eclipse ends, 10:25 ; moon leaves shadow, 11:24 ; moon leaves pen umbra, I2:a3, One of Many. Please write soon and send a paper. Alma, Harlan, Co., Neb. Dear SirsAs we are going to move to Oregon in the near future or this fall I take the liberty to address you requesting you to favor me with a sample copy of your paper by return mail, if possible,'you will confer a favor on me. Should want to rent a house or rooms and a barn this com ing winter, a short distance from your city, 3 or 4 miles, with a small piece of land to it, with a pasture for two horses and one cow. Let me know by return mail. Also rent per month. Respectfully, MlC-IIAEI. DONIIOCSER. Box 122, Alma, Neb. The above is one of many letters that come to the Democrat office. We are unable to answer the gentleman's ques tions, so we give his name, and our real estate men, farmers and citizens generally are at liberty to storm him with proposi tions, lie is evidently a German, and, by the wav, some of our most thrifty farmers are of this class, in fact as a rule they rather lake tnc lead In knowing how to make both ends meet. ItSavku Him. "I won a case in the police court yesterday," said Counsellor Butcher to a St. Paul reporter, "by flour ishing this red silk handkerchief. A po liceman arrested my client, a young baker, for obstructing the sidewalk near the un ion depot and preferred charges against him of being disorderly and resisting an omcer. . 1 hey also accused him of being an anarchist. I flashed this bright handker chief before the judge and said: 'Your honor, if this man had been seen carrying such a thing as this twelve months ago he would nave been banged. JNow it is the emblem of righteousness and honesty, car ried by the entire democratic party as the fiag which will lead them on to victory.' My client was promptly discharged. Moving. Mr. S. E. Young has begun moving his stock of goods into his new quarters just northwest of the Democrat office, probably the best s'tore rooms in the Willamette Valley. Including basement he will have about 15,000 square feet of room, and, besides, will, in time, have a warehouse across the alley. Finely lo cated, his already very large business will be increased. Large, commodious, well arranged stores speak for a city as well as for the proprietor, and this is one of sever al things that is increasing the me tropolitan appearance of Albany. Tried to Suicide. A stranger who gave his name as Frank Willis, of California, at tempted to committ suicide last night at Salem by jumping off the platform Into the millpond near the water works, but either the shallowness or the coldness of the water induced him to change his mind, for he waded out himself and was taken charge of by parties who saw the deed, and who turned him over to an officer. Willis said he was a miller by trade, nnd is from California. Suspicious The Newport paper thinks it has gotten track of a genuine opium smuggler who recently came Into Yaquina Bay all alone In a suspicious manner. We think it has not. This is a terribly suspi cious world and it only takes the shadow of a tack for everybody to imagine a spike tobe around In this case the circum stances do not necessarily Indicate opium at all. Hay. The size of the hay crop very naturally affects the size of the price. Con siderable has been sold for $4 In the field, and it can be purchased and delivered in the city for $6 or $7, which would make it about $10 baled. Hotel Arrivals, Revere House.

Cohen. Will any Republican solve '.he following problem for me f Why Is It that the Repub lican wool buyers who think that Harrison will be elected and that the Mills bill will not pass, and consequently no tariff taken off wool, have been and are now offering less for wool than I am, who believes that Cleveland will be elected and that the reve nues of the government will be reduced to a point to meet the just demands of the government only ? In order to satisfy your self who pays the least price look around and come to me last to ascertain my figure. An extra price paid for a few full blooded democratic fleeces for James G.

Why don'tyou take down yonr horrid look ing awnings. Let's make FirstSt a thorough fare Albany cm be proud of. This is not a frontier city any longer and frontier Btyles should be banished. Mr Jason Wheeler arrived in Albany yes terday from east of the mountains, having been at Camp Polk, Warm Springs and other plaoes, He will settle down in Albany now and make this his home. People interested in advertising Albany and Linn conniy, should call on Jay Blain, secretary of the Board of Trade, get some pamphlets and send them where they will do tho most good.

Very few farmers in tho city now-a-days. Now is their hams: time. Hay and wheat harvest coming at the same they say it takes a "powerful" sight of rustling to accumulate the money to meet harvesting expenses.

They will in particular visit the oolleges of Kansas, Iowa, Illinois and Michigan. Times. The Misses Charlton left Lebanon Thurs day morning for their future home in Ellens burg, W T. These are very estimable young ladies, and their departure from Lebanon is regretted by a large number of friends. We wish them success iu their new home. Ex press. The prettiest women in Niagara Falls, Mrs P J Tulley, was drnunded yesterday by being carried over the falls. So long as there are fools in the world, there ought to be a law against boats being allowed on Niagara river above the falls. An Albany gentleman surprised to hear some one running his lawn mower was great ly relieved to ascertain that it waa only his son winding hi; Waterbnry watch. Like most Albany boys you don't catch him de meaning himrolf by running lawn mowers.

For their lvnr,t n, following cute little trick tried in an Orejon c.iy is given: The tired hod carrier pur chased five cents worth of hickory nuts, ! and putting a few among the mortar in the hod, he emptied it on the board. The brick layer, seeing a nut sticking among the mor tar as he was laying it In the wall, picked it out, and cleaning it with hisapron.crack ed the shell and ate the kernel. Repeti tion of this several times, took up so much of his time that when the hodman came up with the next hod very little of the former one had been used. The hodman put in a few more whenever he was falling behind and at night told his boss that if he would add a quarter a day to his wages he would keep any two brick layers going. The other evening an Albany young man as he was passing by Francis Pfeiffer's asked his girl what she thought of crema tion. She said she would and preferred vanilla. DISSOLUTION NOTICE.
