Teddy Gamble. A great many who at
tended the entertainments given by the
Juvenile Opera Company In this city Sat
urday afternoon and evening, pronounced
them about the most enjoyable ever given
in Albany. The Mikado was played in the
afternoon and Oliyette In the evening. The
Democrat was represented only at the
tatter. OHvelte Is a very sprightly opera
and the Juveniles handled it like profession
als. Teddy Gamble asCoquelicot, the Due
Des Us fool, in the plain language of the
country editor carried the house bv a cy
clone. The Duke, by Julia Martin, was
ably sustained, and is a character mat
catches the eve of the bald headed bach
elor at once. Miss Emma Berg as the
Coutcss sustained her part in a charming
manner, and Miss Cleveland as Olivette
fairly takes the sails out of the Canadian
fishermen's boats. When children equal
old stagers what is the world coming to.
This week the company play In Salem,
and as it is state fair week a big business
may be expected, something the com
pany deserves.
Ho, There. "There are several ambi
tious amateur bicyclists In Albany, up in
Linn county, ho imagine that they are
world beaters, and it is said they are spoil

in this neck of the woods. This is to an

of them, can be accommodated at any time,
and for a reasonable amount and distance,

immense burst of challenge, we do not
know, as we- are not familiar with the
names of any here who are spoiling for a
race. Ine uemocrat ininKs uiercareonc

Salem man tired just for fun or a medal.
A Peculiar Accident. "Hank Vaughn,
well known throughout tills coast," says a
Portland paper, "came very nearly losing
his life a few weeks ago. Since he was last
shot, he has constantly used morphine, to
allay the pain occasioned by the wound.
While administering a hypodermic fnjec
tion of the drug, his wife, who was not feel
ing well, ran the needle into a vein in
Hank's arm. Heat once became uncon
scious and his jaws were firmly set Indicat
ing all the symptoms of lockjaw. Physi
cians were speedily summoned and after
much labor succeeded in relieving him.
They stated that if they had been delayed
but hye.minutes Hank would never have
known what ailed him."
Two Men. Yesterday forenoon two
drunks were towed into the caliboose,
though one of them declared there was no
one big enough for the job. In the even
ing they succeeded in prying the door open
with a board they had wrenched from
the room they were In, and were once
more free men. They gazed wildly about
harly knowing which way to go, when a
man standing in front cried out that the
marshal was coming, when they climbed
the fence and ran for dear life. They were
last seen going towards Salem.
Staved With Them This morning

with them," and brought them to a stand
still after quite an exciting experience.

The following from the Burns Herald Is
an account of the murder of William II-
Brown, a resident of Linn connty for a
great many years,and brother of Gen. Mart'
V. Brown, for years the editor of this pa
per : "Sept. 8th, about 6 o'clock, Saturday
evening, in the course of an altercation be
tween two residents of Harney Valley,
Wm. Page and Wm. H Brown, In C. M.
Caldwell's saloon In Burns, the latter was
shot dead in the presence of witnesses.
Page was arresicd on the charge of murd
er by W. W. Johnson, Deputy Sheriff,
though he had acknowledged himself the
doer of the deed a few minutes before by
giving himself in custody of a by.stander,
Joe Wooley. J. C. Wooley, a witness to
the crime, testified as follows, which shows
how the murder happened : I was pres
ent at Mr. Caldwell's saloon when the
shooting com.ncnced. Heard there was a
fuss between Brown and Page. Brown
came to me by Byrd's stable and said that
Bi'l Page was going to lick him. I told him
I guess not, that he (Brown) was too old a
man to fight. I asked him what the trou
ble was. He said 'nothing much, but Bill
Page thinks he can run a bluff on me.' He
(Brown,) pulled out a knife and said I'll
stick that into Page before sun-up in the
morning, I went into Caldwell's saloon
with Mr Armor to play billiards. Page
says to Brown 'come and take a drink.'
Clark says to Page 'I am waiting for you to
go home.' Brown says to Page 'I can lick
you fom Dan to Beersheba V Page says
'there is no use for us to have a fuss, for
there is nothing between us,' or something
to that effect. Brown says 'by G I will
lick you !' and struck Page. Page fell and
while on his back with his left hand under
him, he 6hot. Brown was going toward
him and In about 5 feet of him and I ran
across to the southeast part of the building
and didn't sec any more. Went out first
time I had a chance.
On Sunday at 3 o'clock, the citizens of
Burns, to show their deep regret for the
treatment the deceased had received in
their town, regardless of the cause of his
death, turned out with his friends and
comrades, to pay the last tribute of respect
that could be given him on earth. Pall
bearers walked behind the hearse to the
cemetery, a few words about the life of the
departed fellow. morta!, a prayer, and the
late Win. H. Brown was left in the city of
our dead. We learn to-day that the late
William H. Brown was the brother of
Mart. Brown, deceased, editor and propri
etor of the Albany State Rights Demo
crat, one of the best papers in the State.
He was a native of Virgina."
At the Bat. The steamer "Mischief"
arrived in the Bay Saturday from Alsea
with 1400 cases of Salmon. This was the
"Michief's" second trip with large ship
ments of salmon. The run at Alsea has
been good.... At Yaquina Bay the rain
yesterday will materially help matters, and
last night the run was some better than
usual. AH of the canneries, including Bak
er & Hayes, are only paying 2 cents
pound and the trouble has all died out.
Last night Zeph Job, of Corvallis went out
in a bout thinking he would come in about
midnight : but the fishermen kept him out
ail night, much to his discomfiture. They
caught fourteen salmon, all before mid
night.
