Several Al bany gentlemen have been contemplat ing joining the American lluildiiig nnd Loan Association oC Minneapolis. As the following from the Pendleton E.O. treats on the subject we publish it gratis: "Some few Pendleton members of the American Building and Loan Association of Minne apolis expressed themselves as somewhat dissatisfied with Mock certilicates received and with the general methods of the asso ciation. In this connection the oft-quoted remark that it is better to patronize or be long to a home institution, doubtless finds its verification. A thorough examination nnd comparison proves the superiority of the focal organization, the Oregon Build ing and Loan Association, over one the Interests of which are elsewhere. Black Bart. A big reward Is offered for the capture of Black Bart, whose pic ture is seen posted all over the Coast. The detectives can't find him it is said ; but an Examiner reporter is said to have called on him in his mountain hiding place and had a long interview with the gentleman. We'll wager the reporter lied, though they do say a reporter will see things no one else Special Mektixc A special meeting of the City Council was held last evening to consider the proposed extension of the city limits. Mr. lluckleman, Mr. Bryant and Capt. Lanning whom it brings inside the limits were present and favored the movement, making suggestions in refer ence to the same. Table r, Hoffman and Wntsman were appointed a committee on the survey ot the same to be made by air. Warner. Will Get Mad. A young German while out hunting six or eight miles back of Hood river, was mistaken for a deer and shot. The bullet entered the abdomen The man is reported to be in a very crit ical condition. We are going to get mad if this kind of foolishness does not stop. Uur Legislature should pass a law making tills common mistaking of men for animals a criminal ollcnse. Freight Ahead. There is said to be freight ahead enough for five months work with the present facilities of the Oregon Pacific, a fact which makes the present disaster so much the more serious. The "Willamette Valley," which is always piloted Into the bay by its own pilot, never has had a bobble, and people generally do not believe there was anv excuse for the present accident to the "Vaqulna Bay." Columiiia Bar Spleen The Pioneer, a paper published down near the bar where the "Republic" and "Queen of the Pa cific" were wrecked, has the following to say about the wreck of the "Vaqulna Bay," which, if the editor has any eyes at all, he must know had nothing to do with the har bor: "The Oregon Development com pany's new steamer 'Yaquina Bay' Is ashore a few hundred feet from where hei predecessor, the 'Yaquina City,' was wrecked last December. There is a possi bility thnt she may be saved, but a strong probability that she will be a total loss. It s expensive business trying to make a first class seaport out of a tentli class harbor." The following is from the Hartford items n the Washington county Advertiser, of Kort Edward, New York, anil Is a nice notice of some new residents of Albany : Mr. and Mrs. Or. Chamherlin and their son Allic, and daughter Winnie, of this place, leu Nov. 271)1 for Albany, Or. I hey take the excursion from Eagle Bridge. The doctor and family have hosts of friends in iiaritoru, who sadly reurct their leaving town. The doctor has been a very suc cessful physician in this place for many years ana lie win be greatly missed pro fessionally, as many think there is no doc. tor like Doctar Chamberlin. The wish of their many friends is, abundant success and prosperity." No Excuse A gentleman of leisure called at the Democrat office this morn ing and argued with us over five minutes for ten cents, which he did not get, though he got plenty of arguments for not getting it. He said: "Can't yer see yourself that I aint a tramp." He may be the son of the uuke ot Argyie.tor all we know ; but lust as soon as he goes from place to place beg ging for a dime he becomes a hobo,anu you can't make anything else out of it,whatever his previous condition In lite. . rity Is all right, but there is no excuse for a healthy able bodied man begging. New P. M. at Salem. Richard R. n. 1 1 1 I -. . . -.- at Salem, at least he has been notified by a friend in Washington City that he has been appointed, and Hon. 11. 11. Gilfrey on being telegraphed to, answered that the appointment was handed to the Senate Tuesday. A Small Crowd. The poorest adver tised show that ever exhibited in Albany was that of John Jack's, at the opera house last evening. As a result almost no one went, probably less than fifty, dead heads and all. We understand, tiiough, a very good entertainment was given, particular ly for bo small a troup. I Imii License. We're sort of in favor of something of the kind too, that is, a li cense of about $20 a day for tramp tailors, peddlers, brass jewelry men, etc. Make it so high the fellows will skip from Salem ciear to Lugene or vice versa, just so as to pare Albany. A Big Rope. This morning a man Ilia hawser six hundred feet long, being over twelve times the length of a baggage car, and eighteen inches in circumference, was received at this city b,v express from San rrancisco and shipped on the atternovn train to Yaquina Bay. Golden Wkddino. Yesterday "Uncle John" Beard and his venerable spouse, of Tangent, celebrated the fiftieth anniver wryof their married life. A Novelty A novelty in Albany Is a Sirl's tricycle at Mr. Julius Gradwohl's. rnt. By all means at least call and see It. Montetih & Sei W IMMENSE 'all early before A Democrat man has boea through Mr. Julius Gradwohl's (inely equipped store, and is able to report ono of the finest stocks in the Northwest, probably none better in the State. He is carrying a very superior stock ot crockery ware, navlug tue latest patterns in the market. Iu toys and children's play tilings generally the variety carried is as toniahiuv, eyerythinc almost from a tin whititle up. His stock of Koger Bros, silver plated ware is a good one and in plush goods he keeps a large stock of toilet sets and al bums. What you cannot find at Mr Urad wohl'afor the holidays is hardly, worth getting. Stole the Paks. This morning a farm er drove into town and bought some tin ware of Deyoe & Robinson and put It in his wagon, which was standing in an alley. Shortly after a tramp espied the pans and took them off, and was trying to seil them when the farmer who by this time had missed them came upon him and took them away, letting the tramp go in peace to his great disgust,wlio fully expected to be ar rested and ted at public expense. A Grave Yard. The very Inst act In the transition of the Oregon Videlte is about to be performed. The material has been bought in by some of the holders of mortgages and the p'.ant Is being broken up and removed. Thus Is rung down the curtain and the expiring hours of the Ore gon Videfe and Anti-Monopolist are peace fully marked, demonstrating the truth of the oft repeated saw, that Salem is a grave yard for newspapers. Journal. Baling Press The Isx&tSa'cncific Amcr- cian In its list of patents, has the following: "William P. Martyn, Harrisburg, Or. This machine is one which may be used for baling while traveling or moving, by keeping a pair of horses on the tongue and another to press the bale, in such way bal ing from a cock or window, the invention providing various novel features of con struction and combinations of parts." Censuiied J, J. Winant, of the Bay, says the steimer could have been saved by the use of its anchor, but Mr, Winant says the officers of the road seemed to be afraid of a little expense and so the ship was wrecked. Mr. W. talks In remarkably plain language, and if what he says is true, there are certainly grounds for censure of the management of the wreck. Not Insane. Several weeks ago the Democrat mentioned a difficulty beyond Scio between Mr. Wright and Mrs. Piatt,ln which an ox was shot, and Mr. WHght ar rested and discharged. Now comes Mr. Wright Into Court and has Mrs. Piatt ex amined on a charge of insanity. The com mission of physicians declared her not In sane. She simply has a temper. Small Pox. A gentleman who came down on the train at noon from Oakland, says that the wife and two children of Mr, Burt who died some day ago at Drain from small pox, are all down with the dread dis ease. The same gentleman says there are four cases at Roseburg. HOME AND ABROAD Dates, figs, etc, at Pfeifler 'a.

The stranded steamer remains in about the same position as yesterday, with Its bow down in the sand, the boat careening towards the north, and the water running through it. How many holes there are In the bottom is a matter of speculation. Par ties at the Bay have concluded that there Is little chance of saving It. A diving out fit was received yesterday but no one was with it. The boat will probably be turned over to the underwriters to do as they please with it. It was first-class in every respect, and was insured for a large sum,, the exact figures are not known here.
