LOCAL RECOIID. Some Bi;stxk. As quiet as business may appear on the streets during the.c haivest days if one goes along the river front considerable of a bustle may be found, not quite large enough for the statute of Liberty ; but of good proportions considei ing the present advancement of manufac turing interests in Oregon. One of the most unpretentious institutions in Albany, and yet one which sends out goods prob ably the farthest is the Wire Works oi Brush Sc Son. They are now making quite a spec ialty of wire mattresses. The former clean er factory of Best is being arranged for Mr. C. J. Dillon's wholesale furniture factory, and he expects to be in the building next week. Mr, Dillon intends to branch out as the business justifies until he has a large factory. Cherry & Parkes are always busy, anddo the largest foundry business In the Stateoutsidc of Portland. J. G. Cherry is running the other foundry in a small way. Zcyss & ilociistedler at the planing mill have considerable business on hand. As mentioned elsewhere the Farmers' ware house is being improved ready for a 150,. 000 bushel business. No storage has yet been made. At the Red Crown Milk a lew bushels have been stored. Yesterday M r. Krank Ketchum was the first to begin the regular hauling of his wheat. He reports his Landreth wheat as yielding on an aver age 24 bushels to the acre, and the scales showed that It weighed 63 pounds to the bushel. Mr. John Hoffman has erected a temporary structure for his tile works near the corner of First and Railroad Streets, and is now manufacturing the smaller grades of tiling. Next week he will begin work on thirty-inch tiling for the Railroad Street sewer. He is making a good tiling, one that will give satisfaction. Several otner small industries are being pushed, and will be noticed In time. An Improvement. A large addition is being built to the Farmers' warehouse at this city and the building Is being Improv ed generally. Amongother things new machinery Is being introduced, the best cleaners to be obtained being used. Secre tary Archibald and First Lieutenant Propst may be depended on to take first-class care of the wheat stored there. The Company anticipates perhaps the largest storage for years, and are justified in placing the build ing in splendid condition. Sewer Work. Mr, Jas. Laurent yes terday began the construction of the Rail road Street sewer. He struck his first spade just north of First Street at the end of Railroad Street and has two men at work now ; but will add several in time. He will use the pipe manufactured by Mr. John Hoffman, of this city. Mr. Walter "East Is at work on the Baker Street sewer, a deep, short big affair. He has four sr five men at woik. Over tub River. Across the river Is a favorite resort for small picnic parties, family affairs, class concerns, lovers' lun cheons, etc. Yesterday a Democrat man helped make up the tall end of one of the first mentioned kind. The pigs over there arc very familiar. One of them sat down at a basket and helped himself to a loaf of bread, the black hearted black pig; but the wide spreading trees overcome such little disagreeable matters. Canvassing. Andrew Hale and Mrs. F. E. Robinson are out canvassing for the "Daughters of America," a book telling all about the noted women of America. They also have the fine Primrose Album. The book Is executed In a very neat and tasty style by True & Co., of Augusta, Maine. The Primrose Album is also manufactured at the same house. These articles will sell like hot cakes, subscribe for one of each and be happy. Homely. The morning overland train arrived this noon, five hours late. It was packed full of school teachers, and "lah me," homely; our Oregon teachers are beauties beside at least the gentle sex part of them. We are not particularly anxious to have all of them locate In Albany; but we wouldn't mind if they would induce ome woolen man to come here if he doesn't want all we possess for a bonus. McVay Arrested. On Wednesday Sheriff Mackay received a telegram from the justice of the peace at Junction City that Lew McVay, the fellow who cut his brother so badly on Tuesday of last ' week, and who escaped was at that place, and ked if he should arrest him. The sheriff ent word back to arrest him and also sent a deputy after him. lie was brought here aud waived examination before Justice Car lile, who bound him over In thcsuin of Jjjo, to appear at the next term of circuit court. At last accounts he was hunting some one to go on his bonds. Gutetle. The Kk;iit op It. We always like to give an account of an event the way it happens; but depending entirely on others in most cases, of course matters gut mixed sometimes. A correspondent at Scio says this is the correct version of the drown ing of young EaJs recently: Young Eads was In battling and could not swim. He could wade out about ten feet and there was a jump off, where the water was 12 or 14 feet deep. Me said to the little boys, "I will show you how I can dive," and he went under the water and the current washed him out into deep water. The little boys said he raised three times. We found liim where the boys saw him go down the lust time. He was drowned about 5 p. m. We made a raft, aud then got a well hook and tied It on a pole about 20 fectjong. Wm. Dllley held the raft and at 10 o'clock Frank Mack raised him. We found him about 50 yards below wheVc his clothing was found on the bank. KadOwas 19 years old, has a step farther In Scio, two brothers and a half sister and brother in Scio. This is the true version of the drowning." Bk; Damages. Mrs. Sarah Shaver has sued the O. & C. K. R. for $50,000 dam ages, caused in about the following way : On the 19th of October last, she was a pas senger on one of the O. & C. trains for Wilbur. As the train drew near Wilbur she was notified that she had reached her destination. It stopped at a point where there was no place to alight, and where it was dangerous to descend from her car. Mrs. Miaver alleges that she stepped upon the platform and while there the train was put in motion, causing her to fall to the ground, and breaking her leg, hurting her spine and otherwise injuring her. By rea son of the fall she has become permanently lamed, crippled and injured. Her husband also on account of a loss of her service.!, payment of bills, etc., has been damaged to the amount of $2500 and sues for that sum. Such suits generally end in a verdict for a few hundred dollars If for anything at all. Five Bears They arrived in Albany this morning and pitched their tent where Ellworth street empties into First. One of the bears was a cinnamon, another Poland-cinnamon and the three others were little five foot Frenchmen with two feet. The four footed bears were the smartest of the five. They danced, marched, climbed a pole, etc., much to the Interest of a large crowd of big and tittle boys that had gathered to sec them. Had it been in a primeval forest and the bears and boys been alone several of the latter would have been breathing this evening without any Dream. I lie r renenmen were not Italians, as some asserted, and they are not the ones who were in Albany two years ago. Like the rope walkers it took three collections to see the exhibition. Ihe troup has al ready done California, and from Albany went norm toward tne capital. A Lono Service. The Portland Trie- gram, in speaking of Rev. Wolfe's death, says: ,"Mr Wolfe's long service in the Methodist itinerency has given him a wide acquaintance in the state, and his death will be sincerely mourned by a large cir cle of friends. His death Is the third loss the Methodist ministry of the Northwest has sustained during the present year, the first being that of Rev. J. II. Wilbur, and the second that of Rev. T. L. Sails. Each of these men had been useful in his day and generation, and all leave a record of sincere endeavor In tne neld tn which they labored." The Harvest. Reports of good wheat yields, not very well defined in some'eases, begin to come Into the Democrat office. As nearly as we can judge now they indi cate abont the best yield in the history of Linn county, and certainly the Linn coun ty farmer has reason to rejoice so far as this goes. Mr. Samuel Conn has com n.etcd threshlnir thirtv-five acres that av craged th!rty-6even bushels. This was lrom an agerage neld 01 wneat. Not True. The picnic party arrived home very safely from Waterloo last even ing, -and reported an exec. lent lime for single people. It is not true that they lost one of the wheels of their hack and did not miss It until reaching Albany ; nor that one couple walked Into the Santiam rapids in a tit 01 aosentminaness; nor mar. one 01 the ladies took advantage of the leap year part of the affair and insisted on a mar riage right there without any license. A Stock Sale. The citizens of Cor- vallis have made arrangements for a month ly sale of stock, the first sale to be on the first Monday in August. The idea is a good one. Here It is: inesesaics mascupiacc for all stockmen to meet, buy, sell and ex change, what they desire on a fixed day that all will know ; also outside buyers will know and come and make their purchases here because of the opportunity. The ob ject Is to make Corvallls the stock center and market of the valley. Other valley towns need to look to their 'aurels in such matters. His Telegraph Line. Mr.Gco. Hardy of Lebanon, who was in the city last even ing, stated mat he would In a few days be gin the construction of his telegraph line to Lebanon, the bonus requested having been raised. This will be a valuable insti tution for that city, and hereafter it will not be necessary to come to this city to get the latest news. Notice. The steamer Win. M. Hong will leave Portland for Albany on Friday, July 37, after which date, on account of very low water In the Willamette river, our boats will not run until further. ' c c iiiKit'E, Juy 34, 18S3. A.

Congress bas passed a law making eight hours a legal day for government employes. Some of our Albany people, though seem to think our Postmaster ought to work aboat twenty and go without eating.

President Wolverton. of the Albany Farm eis' Sc Merohants' Insurance Company, will leave for Roalyn, W T, to adjust the loj ot the company in the recent nre there. This company is among the most DromDt in the Northwest to meet its losses, and this is a case where such oonduct will be appreciate ea.

President John G, Wright, of the Capital Mining company of Salem, returned yesterday from the scene of the late strike in the Santiam mines. Mr. Wright said to a reporter that the newly discovered vein is nine feet in thickness, and contains quartz whose prom inent constituents are gold, silver, lend and iron pyrites. He brought back with him fifty or sixty pounds or ore, which will be sent to Portland to be assayed. The new vein is situated on the south wall of the lead, about ios feet from the main tunnel. The workmen began yesterday on a cross cut from the tunnel across the lead. A meeting of stockholders of the mine will be held two weeks hence, and measures will then be taken fcr development of the mine. Tun Yaquina.

A I'l.KASANT I'AHTY, Editors Democrat : The residence of Mr. Hearst was the place, Thursday was the day and 5:30 a. m. the hour that a party of eleven young men of Albany met by request to participate in a leap-year picnic, the object and program of which to them at that time was some what indefinite. A few late sleepers whose names we will not give came without their breakfast but were supplied through the kindness of the hostess, Mrs. Hearst. The party was not kept long in suspense, for at six prompt there arrived two con veyances, viz : the Revere House coach and a three seated carriage, with cievca young ladies, who escorted the gentlemen to seats and away they sped behind Mar shal's bays and Schmcer's four-in-hand. It is unnecessary for the writer to dwell upon the many pleasant features of that pleasurable ride, as those who have had like experiences can appreciate the occas ion. It was amusing however to a "grang er boy" of the party to hear a young lady exclaim at sight of a flock of geese by the road, "Oh girls just look at those dear lit tle ducks." And another one being asked what kind of grain was in an oat rield re plying "Oh that is rye." At about ten o'clock the party arrived at Waterloo and hammocks were'swungand a general dust ing was indulged in and evervborlv nro. cecded to have a good time. Some of the ladles proved themselves veiy expert shoot ing a pocket-rille. At 13 o'clock the party came together to eniov as nice a lunch as the writer ever had the good fortune to pariaiteoi prepared by the ladtes' own fair hands. Afterwards the day passed quickly away, boat-riding being one of the amuse ments of the afternoon. Late in the after noon the party was joined by Rev, Geo. S. Gibbony and wife, Mr. C. B. Montague and Mi6s llackleman, of Lebanon. At seven the party was again supplied with lunch ; but with the many fragments remaining only one "Fish" was to be found. A short stop at the residence of Mr. C. B. Montague, tnd a pleasant moonlight drive to Albany concluded what to the gentlemen at least was a very pleasant day. The writer as sures the ladies that the gentlemen anore- ciate their kindess and feel confident that the day to all present was one that will not be forgotten. Mr. X. Y. X.
