Mr. Felix O'Toole, died yestcr. day morning at 4:10 o'clock at his rooms in the Russ House, after a lingering illness of about nine months at the age of 74. The funeral services occurred this forenoon at !0 o'clock at the Masonic Hall, and were conducted under the auspices of the Ma sonic order, of which the deceased was a member. The attendance was large. Mr O'Toole came from Michigan to Albany in 1878. invested his money here and lived becoming his advancing jcars on his rent- als and interest, his property growing In value, under his careful management. Hi8 face was familiar on the streets of Albany for many years. "Doc" as he was famil iarly known was of a very social nature and had a good word for those he met. He will be missed from our midst.

The arm was terribly mangled, but it is not known how serious the injuries may be.

A Lrrmt Blubtkil If all oar Oregon ex changes were ulTeoted after'the manner of our contemporary up the street, it would be uxeless to hold any more Statejl'resa Associa tions. Instead of bocoming mare dignified tlio JtrutU immediuttly starts bfT with a butuii of personal digs of a uatuto to ahjw that it is more luteicxttd in the way the Dkmiichat is run than it is about its owu concerns. We notice one or two to fill up with. It put itself out of the way to say our shark item wai like ourstateuicut that wheat wont up 10 (14 cents at about 10 o'clock. Of course the time was immaterial; but as far as uue esiaMndiment was concerned it was practically a fact. The item about twelve sharks being caught in a net at tlio Bay wa" not the result of a practical joke on tlio Deb ocuvr man; but a fact, and spesking of re liability, moro of a- fact tuau the JlrrabVa item that the Brownsville woolen mills were going to shut down ou account of the insuf- ficieucy of the water power. It was uncom mon only iu the number. Small sharks are captured fieimeutly this way. Anyway tins was not as mucn 01 a joae aa me ooe on the JIcraUl' pencil shover in reference to the election bet. Our readers already know from atieet talk the whole business, but some of them wanted to get the parties names into print so aa to make them as notorious aa Ike liyman, so they put tue Jleratd man up to denying our item, which he did in too blust enuga Hay considering his knowledge of the aifair. The Democrat does not care to wriug the uaims of the parties into print connected with every incompleted bet made, and backed out of. This one was made, all but placing up the money, as stated. The drummer is a, rortlaua carpet man, instead 01 a o. r. man, aud has specially requested us to keep his name out of print, as he doss not want to be notorious lue ilyman. tie spent l.zuin tolegraphlug tor the $1000, and as we saw his dispatches we know the money was readv. The Harrison man is a well known clerk here aud it is not necessary to give his uame. Tne arrangements for the bet were beard by several, aud as the matter is nos 01 enough importance anyway we do not pro duce their alfidates, particularly as it would only satisfy the whim of our contemporary. The ease waa that of a square back down according to the facts zivea us. and so far as we are concerned that is the last of it. In the matter of reliability we have no nesita tion in placing ths record of the Democrat witn that 01 the sltrald. How Lelt. Dr. O'Toole, who died yesterday morning left about $40,000, in money and property. Mr. Fred Blumberg and Mr. Warner were appointed executors of his last will and testament. We under stand Mr. B.umberg, the "Doctors" faithful Secretary and companion for many years, will get the Wallace property In this city. part of the Portland property and several thousand dollars, about $20,000 in all. Mr Warner will receive the Kuss House, Charles Warner his son, part of the Port land property, both of whom were former residents ot tne "uocior- in nncnigan ; the Catholic church in this city $500 and two Portland gentlemen $500 apiece. MOJii: AM) AHItOAII. Booms. An exchange says : The real dents of Webfoat can thank their lucky stars that Oregon has had no boom like California, to leave It In a deplorable con, dltion. Fictitious values always prove dls- astrous. A city or a country may float for awhile on the high tide of prosperity but such prosperity Is of short duration. Many must reap the result of the whirlwind. A letter from a former resident of this valley vividly portrays the situation : "1 am weary of the Infernal sleepiness of a dead boom town a town of empty brick build ings, empty heads and empty pockets. Money is slow in forth coming ; everyone is aesponaenr. a. tumoie or greatness is Imminent. 1 long to return to tne land ot plenty Oregon." Fine Suitings.
