Shields, one of Linn county's best known pioneers, died at about 10 o'clock last nijrht after an Illness of several years. In the early days of Linn county Capt. Shields was one of the prominent men of the Valley ; but for several years sickness has kept him from the public. He was born in Bourbon coun ty, Indiana in 1S11, and moved to Oregon in 1852, settling near Lebanon, where he resided until he moved to Albany, which has sinete been his residence. He was twice married, having four children by his first wucanunveby his present wife. Atone time he filled theolliceof County Treasurer in an acceptable manner. Capt; Shields was a member of the M. IS. Church South and was an earnest christian. He will long be remembered by the older residents of Albany and Linn county. His family have the sympathy of the community in their loss of a kind father and good husband. A Straxce Phenomenon. A contract lias been let on the Martin White mine, ot ,Vard, Nev., and work is to be resumed fc rthwith. A queer phenomenon Is con nected with the working of the ' Martin White ore, says the Virginia Enterprise. The ore is very base and it is necessary to roast the whole of it. During the roasting process no deleterious or disagreeable fumes are observable and yet the hair and all the beards of all the men engaged about the works are soon dyed a bright and perman ent green. Even the eyebrows of the work ingmen are as green as grass. In scores of Nevada mines ores of various kinds are smelted and roasted, but at none of them is either the hair or beards of the workmen changed from their natural hue. A Younq Desperabo Little Reno Aldrich a kid only recently weaned, was tiam, about three hundred pushing the work with all the energy A Lively Affair. Mr. Wright !s a new coiner, residing about three miles from Scio. A near neighbor is the family of Mr. Isaac Piatt. Mrs. Piatt will be re membered as having been sent to the asy lum at Salem sometime ago. A steer of the Piatt's had caused Mr. Wright a great deal of trouble, and lie finally shot it, and afterwards offered to pay for it. Wednes day evening Mrs. Piatt, daughter and two sons called at Mr. Wright's home, the daughter carrying a shot gun. In the quarrel and fight which followed the gun was leveled by Miss Piatt at Mr. Wright, and the trigger was about to be pulled when Mr. Wright knocked the young lady down and also Mrs. Piatt. In return he was well belabored with clubs and Hsts, all taking a hand in the skirmish. The at tacking party finally withdrew. Mr. Wright was arrested by a Scio Constable, and taken to that city. The above is an ac count of the affair as told us. Mr. Wright is said to be a man highly respected by his neighbors. To-day he was to be given a hearing before Squire Williams. The Orf.gov Pacific One of yester day s Salem papers gives a half column of breezy O P items from the front, among which are the following : Messrs.

Edited by Albany W, C. T, V. Mayor Archibald, of Jacksonville, Florida, speaking recently of the ravages of yellow in that eity said: 'It strikes persons of alcoholia habits fat ally. Tbe favor is of a very mild form . Tha mortality is only about fifteen per cent, and taking out the deaths of men addioted to the use cf alcohol beverages the mortality would not exceed five percent. Two-thirds of the fatality is due to the fact that persons hay, been accustomed to the use of strong drink before they are attacked by tbe fever.and in every such eaae the patient invariably dies, and without reaction. It is a frequent re mark on the Jacksonville streets that yellow fever is tbe best temperanos leoture the city ever had.1' "Labor and Liquor" is the title of a sug gestive article in tne variolic world, in which the writer pertinently says; "Let labor boycott the saloon as the first step towards better homes and better living." "The New York Sun is having its period ioal struggle to prove that the Maine prohib itory :aw is a laiinre- uy punnsning an ao- oount of the business methods 01 the lum sellers of Bangor. Tbe Sun's reports are wired to Western papers to aid in impeding ths cause of prohibition in that part of tbe country. . Now, we have one little conua dinm to asks If prohibition is such a failure, why ara the rum-sellers and their sympathiz era fighting it with so much venom and per sistency T" A branch of the World's W C T U, with twenty-two members, has been organized in Paris. Missouri, nnder local option, has secured prohibition in thirty out of forty-six coun ties. The supreme court of Nebraska has decid ed that a woman may sue for and recover money her husband has squandered for liquor. If such a law prevailed in Oregon, how many thousand dollars would be passed over to women, who to day are battling against poverty brought about in this way. Within a period of two years and a half the prison papulation cf Iowa has dereased from 725 to 237, a decrease of 188. Iowa has been rained by prohibition!
