LOCAL UECUitD.
CoNMDiiKAui.it Bittkk. Mr, John Mor
gan writing from PUinvicw says : 'A
great many people are complaining of get
ting their cupfull of bitter and no sweet. I
think mine is one of that kind. Just in the
nice days of harvest I broke two of my ribs,
and, then to fill the bitter cup to overflow
ing, 1 broke a leg In November, and while
at Mr. Leedy's mill getting saw dust, my
fine mare, Alice, sickened and died, and
now to overflow it all I have the bilious
fever and Dr. Star has been giving noisy
medicine and if Albany want a woolen
factory just come and move my house down
and I think they will have a good one."
The old saying that it never rains but it
pours is proving true with Mr. Morgan.but
the brightest weather often comes after the
darkest clouds.
Insi-ectino It. One of the divers who
went to the Bay yesterday morning went
down in the hold of the wrecked steamer
when the tide was out, and was down about
an hour, but as he was only able to make
a small inspection of the bottom, on ac
count of the position of the boat and the
coal that was in ttie way, made no report.
To-night it is thought the condition of the
bottom will be ascertained. The prospects
of doing anything are not very flattering.
Concert. Next Tuesday evening a
concert will be given at the Opera House
for the benefit of the Presbyterian Church,
and it promises to be a very fine thing, the
best talent in the city being engaged for it.
Mrs Langdon, Mrs Chamberlain, Prof.
Lee, O H Irvine, Miss Lib Irvine,Mrs Alt
house, Mrs W 11 Lee, and Messrs. Win.
Fortmillerand Rev Pritchard are the prin
cipal participants. The program is being ar
ranged and will be published in a day or
two.
Mussed Some. The goods for Albany
merchants taken from the wrecked steamer
were brought to Albany to day and some
of them delivered to the consignees, when
e despatch was received ordering the de
livery of the goods stopped until further
orders. Some of them were in rather of a
bad condition, having been spattered with
water, and boxes generally were considera
bly mussed.
From the Front About fifty Italian
laborers arrived in the city last night from
the front and during the day have been
perambulating our streets, getting their
time checks cashed and jabbering general
ly. Like the Chinamen they keep their
money and you never see any of them beg
ging. In contrast several white men have
been soliciting generally on our streets
during the day.
Clark Braden, Rev. Clark Braden
addressed a fair sized audience at the V.'.
C.T. U. hall last evening on Infidelity and
Christianity. He Is a forcible speaker and
displays a remarkable knowledge of the
subjects he handles. To night at the same
place his subject will be "The Worlds Debt
to Christianity." Rev. Braden has de
bated witn many of the prominent infidels
of the country and is worth hearing.
Mooiy. Mr. Moody will not come to
Albany at all, even for the college services,
nor will he go te Salem. So he informed
Rev. Irvine in Portland. This is to be re
gretted very much. Necessarily he has to
go where most needed, and hence we un
derstand will be in Astoria. If he only
touches the consciences of some of the
editors there he will do a noble work.
A Boy Brakeman. Another one has
been injured Last Sunday Young Hap
persct, son of Road Master Happerset, of
Roseburg, met with a painful accident at
Oakland. He is a brakeman on the train
and in some manner got caught and had
one of his legs badly mashed, so badly that
It was decided that it would have to come
off.
Their Share. On Saturday Mrs.A.W.
Wright received a dispatch announcing the
death of her son Edgar, at Yaqulna. This
family have been sorely afflicted in the
loss of two boys within the past year. This
little fellow was a witness in the trial of
Henry Miller at the last term of court, for
the killing of his brother Elmer Benton
Leader,
Lost. A half grown white kitten. Leave

Tangent.
The school will close Friday. The usual
exercises of declamations, recitations, etc.,
will take place. Miss McFarland has taught
a successful school. It was so large that an
assistant was necessary.
Mr. Jenks will complete his new home
this week.
The revival meeting conducted by Rev
D (J McFarland still continues. No con
versions yet we believe.
Prof. Sibbetts is quite ill from cold and
vaccination.
Every one is asking about small pox in
Albany. Is it so, Mr. Editor ? (Two cases
but do not gel alarmed, they are closely
quarantined. Editors.)
Our citizens will have a Christmas tree
at the church.
The golden wedding of John Beard and
wife was a fine affair.
Ambrose Beard of Gilliam county is here
visiting friends and relatives.
Mr. B. Smith brother of L F Smith is in
town for a few days.
The question is : Who shall be our next
school teacher ?
Mr. McMullin is receiving new goods
daily.
Tangent people are much annoyed with
some low degraded people known as Bo
hemian Gypsies who are begging (and ru
mor 6ays stealing) from the community. It
will be perfectly safe for them to leave
here as soon as they can get away.
Scribe.
Crook County. Messrs. IIahn& Fried
are in receipt of a letter from Col. Ecleson,
chief engineer of the O. P. road, stating
tint he with a corps of engineers will be
here about the 1st of January to resume
the location of the line of road, which h;
left last January. Col. Ecleson also sta:es
that the road will be completed to within
IS miles of the summit of the Cascades by
the 1st of January, and the company ex
pects to have trains running to the Des.
chutes river within oneyear from the pres
ent time. It is the intention of the corn
to build the road through Crook county
during the winter of itteooo. . . . A corres
pondent writes from Camp Creek that peo
ple there are happy. Thev are all prepar
ed for winter, the ground is frozen so they
cannot plow, hence they have no work to
do, the grass on the grange is good, the
stock on the range is in good condition,and
some calves are so fat that they have been
killed for beef by parties unknown to the
owners.... The town fathers have vented
their spleen upon the festive town cow, by
passing an ordinance making it a misde
meanor for a cow to be found on the
streets during the night time. Prineville
Review,
Absekt Minded. Judge Holgate some
times goes to the court house on business
and leaves a notice on his office door that
he will be back by a certain time. The
other day he came to his office and saw
notice "Will be back by .o'clock," and the
Ing in an absent minded mood, he sat d be
to wait for himself. Benton Leader, own
Found Dead, On Sunday morning last
an old bachelor, who, for a number of
years has been living in his little hut near
Lake Labish below Salem was found dead
in the brush a few hundred yards from his
house. His name was Matt W. Harrison
aged 53 years. He had been ill for some
time which caused his death.
