LOCxlL RECORD. A Nick Entertainment. The social and entertainment given at the V. C. T. U. Hall last evening for the benefit of the building fund was a peculiarly smooth and successful affair. Theattendance was large and the interest taken and sociability dis played larger. Offerings were taken at the door amounting to $89. The President i Mrs. J. I. Tawnsend, called the meeting to order. After a song, prayer was offer "! cd and the President made a short address ,; of welcome. A ladies quartet, composed of Mrs. Sherman Thompson, Miss Lib Ir vine, Miss Lillie Robertson and Miss Trum bull were heard in a nicely rendeied selec tion. Mrs. Gove, of Portland, delivered a short address, full of solid sense, peculiar to thi6 able lady. Mrs. Cochrane sang a solo with good effect and Miss Esther Mar shall recited "Evening on the farm," show ing marked improvement and in a manner to display the splendid training received at the college, uames and sociability tollow. ed for an hour. Remarkaule Mr. John Stipe, of Sclo, la renewing his subscription for the coming year adds the following postcript: "Writ ten with my own hand in the eighty-third year of my age." Could our readers see the writing they would say "remarkable." The letter would be a model of neatness and elegance for a young lady of twenty, the style resembling that of 8 lady more than of a gentleman. We do not believe that in the whole United States there is a man of eighty two years of age who can surpass, if equal, it, both in correctness and style. Not Very Elevating. We don't be lieve that big debate at Silverton will do much good. Too much strife seems to be engendered. Mr. Braden begins a news- paper article like this: "There appears, in the Appeal ol last week, over the signatures of those miraculously evoluted prodigies of smartness, wisdom and erudition, the Secular committee, a farrago of dishonest claptrap, that for silly dishonesty and hy pocritical tomfoolery, stands rivaled only inl similar exploits of that committee." When the infidel committee answers this the air will be blue around Silverton. Ja.neway. Janeway the Spicer mail robber, gave the following account of hi. rambling, after leaving this country to a Portland reporter : "I left here last Feb ruary, and made my way directly to Texas, reaching there early In March. On the 15th of that month I wentto work in a ho tel as cook. I remained there until May, when I discovered that Roberts was "on to me," and I suddenly lit out. After that I traveled all over the country. I took in St. Louis, Washington, New York, and, in fact, all of the good cities in the United States. On the 7th Inst. I found myself in Illinois, in a town, the name of which I can't remember now. It was from there that I communicated with Mr Meyers. From there 1 went on to umana.wnerc on the 10th inst, I gave myself up, and you know the rest." Then the reporter sizes Janeway up aB follows : "To speak un- classlcally, Janeway Is extremely 'tup. lie has lost nearly all of the palish, which as sociaton with genteel people gave him. He has changed completely. Even the chnrming maidens of Spicer, who were wont to dally sweetly murmur 'Any mail for me to-day, Dickey ?' would be unable to identify him among his present associates." Keen Kickers The man who has to pay a debt of long standing. You know him. The gentleman who has his grade in front of his property raised one year and lowered the next. The property owner who wakes up in the morning and finds that a cow has got on to the combination of his gate and destroyed all of his fine shrubbery. The young man who sees an other fellow step in ahead of him and take his best girt to a Thanksgiving ball. Any citizen who has to cross First Street these muddy days. The candidate for Marshal or other city office who receives enough promises to nominate two men but only gets three votes in the Convention, a year ly occurrence. Another Pioneer Dead. Hon John A Robnett, a pioneer of about '47 and one of the prominent farmer. of Linn county, died at his home at Shedd last evening, at the age of about 50, after an iilness of only a couple days, though his health had not been good for a year or two. He was a man highly esteemed through tne county. He at one time represented the county in the state legislature, in an acceptable man ner. The deceased leaves a wife and two sons and a good name as a monument for a life well.spent. Funeral services will be held to-morrow at 10 o'clock. Look First. Oregon's divorce laws are a disgrace to the state; but they seem to uit our representatives pretty well. Di vorce, should only be granted for one cause. The truth is about half the people of the world make huge leaps in the dark when they get married and a majority seem to have never been cut out for domestic relationships anyway. A Portland paper estimates that one divorce suit a day is be gun in tnat city. Two Fingers Off. This forenoon while running a planer at his furniture factory and planing mill, on Water street, Mr C J Dillon accldently caught his right hand in the knives of the planer. In a flash the two middle finger, were ampu tated. The hand was properly dressed and Mr Dillon is doing well. A Tramp Joke. Two tramps called on a kind lady In the suburb, of Portland. "To which of you two shall I give thi. nickel ?" she asked. First tramp Give It to him, madam. He ha. purchased the route from me, and I am iust taking him around to introduce him to the customer.. A Candidate. Dr. Lamberson, of Lebanon, is mentioned by our contem porary for the agency of Warm Springs, The doctor has been a hard worker for the party and has the merit of being a resident of the state. He will have plenty of com petitors though before the appointing nine. Died On Nov. 18th, 188S, at Day ville, Or., Mis. Elva, daughter of Henry and Lydla A. Johnson, aged 20 years, 7 days. The deceased formerly resided with her parents about two miles from Jefferson, n ints countv. Montetih & Sei their IMMENSE Call early before Lots of Them. A man down at the jaws of the Columbia has been abusing his family and getting drunk, the latter first. The Pioneer request, him to consid er if he hadn't better stop, and further says: "The saloon men of Astoria will do the wife and children a kindness if they will refuse to sen mm a glass of intoxicating liquor, ana we ask tnem as gentlemen, and in be half of five little children, who will some day bless them for It." Saloon men would also do a favor if they would refuse to .ell anybody a glass of Intoxicating liquor. The advise of our Ex. would apply also to some in Aioany wno tan to provide prop' eny lor tneir families. The Coming Attraction. The Or gonian in speaking of the production of Chip O' the Old Block,"now on the board. at New Park theatre, Portland, and which is to be presented here next Wednesday evening, says : "Another fine house en joyed "Chip O' the Old Block" last evening and the fun was fast and furious. Miss Jessie Eonstelle Increased the favorable impression made on Monday and evoked unstinted applause In her songs and imita tions. She is a delightfully fresh and naive soubrette, clever in the extreme. Mr. Scott's Commodore was as amusing as could be imagined, while Harry Mills' Jack iignuoot was a penect piece ot character work, ihe musical numbers were all fine ly rendered and altogether the piece was as mirtn-provoklng a. can be Imagined. An Offer. The Oregon Pacific ha. made a proposition to Nelson A Bennett to compromise his $551,825 suit. A. they paid Mr Hunt $60,000 in cash It seems that they are able to do It. It I. asserted here tnat tne company has a tine bank ac count for railroad building, and next sea- .on will see the largest yeai's work In the history 01 tne roao. Masqreradb Ball.

Francis Pfeiffer can do better than anywhere elso. lCemember this in getting your holiday confectionary. There was a large gathering of voung peo ple at Crawford's Thanksgiving ball at the Opera House last evening, and a pleasant time is reported. The electric light station presented a cca- lusea appearance this morning as a result of the havoc made by the broken belt last night. Considerable damage was done. The collection taken up at the M E Church. yesterday, after the Thanksgiving services, amounted 814. 76. This goes to the Ladies' Aid Society, of which Mr. John Althouse is Treasurer.

The Orcgonian to day devote, seven columns to the small pox scare and closes by saying "people need have no hesitation about visiting the city," which explain, the course of Port land paper, from the beginning. If there have only been a dozen case, at a time they have acted in a very mean spirited way. Through keeping it silent, howeyer extensive it has spread oyer the northwes t into a dozen cities. Linn county loses two by It, Mr 1 hompson and his son. in the list of afflicted. So far as the extent of the disease is concerned we do not believe it ha. ever been a. bad as generally reported at random ; but the public should have been posted from the hrst. KEAL ESTaT SALES.

It was while thus engaged in endeavoring to loosen a large boulder, Sammy, the elder of the children, got on the lower side of the boulder, and when It became oisioagea iromus position it knocked him down and rolled completely over him.breaking his spine and otherwise injuring him so he died a short tune after, fendieton n.. u.
