Last Day of 1888 To-day close. :8S8. ft has been 9 good business year in Albany. The city has forged ahead slowly. There ;jhas been no boom in building ; yet there Vhas been progress. Numerous residences have been erected, mostly small ones. Six brick stores have been built, and every thing is occupied, an Indication that we are holding our own and more than that. A healthy growth is what we want and are getting. A little more push and bustle would materially benefit matters during 1S89. We should do much more than dur ing the past year. Not until foreign capi tal comes in and materializes in brick blocks will we experience a booming growth. We must encourage this, for, undoubtedly we are on the inside track, and possess an advantage in the Oregon Pacific, which if we watch our chances must develop the city Into the leadin" one in the valley. Held Him. Hon. W. R. Bilyeu and Mr A. B.

" Gbnuink Elopement Quite a con sternation was created last Tuesday, ay the Union Republican, by the circulation of the news of the elopment of Miss Nellie Miles, of Big Creek, and Mr. William Davis, of Wallowa county. The plans of the proceedings were evidently well laid. Miss Miles came down from her home in company with Mr. John McLeod, of Sang er, to attend the ball, while Mr. Davis also made it a point to be here. The parties went to Telocaset and from there took the train to Wiser City, Idaho, where they were united In the ho'.y bonds of matri mony the same evening. This episode places Mr. McLeod in a very embarrassing situation, as he was entirely ignorant of the negotiations pending between the elop ing parlies and was somewhat infatuated with the charms of the young lady him self. ' A Serious Wound. C. Rogers, who 11 yes near Mehama, met with a severe ac cident that came very near costing him his life a day or two ago says the Statesman. He was felling timber on his place, when a rotten limb dropped from the tree upon which he was chopping, striking him on the head, cutting a deep gash and severing an artery. He bled profusely and fainted before he could be carried home hv nirh bors who were working with him when the accident happened. The flow of blood was stopped by the application of home rem edies and he is now doing nicely, although his head is still very sore from the terrible wound. Four Out of Thirty-Nine. A year ago we commended thirty-nine young men here to the tender mercies of leap year privileges. Of the number only four have been captured, to-wit : Fred Burkhart, Geo Henderson, H Hays and John Robson. Several others of the number we are re liably informed have been spoken for, and it is not our fault if there are any mistakes In the following, our authority being Dame Rumor : O A Archibald, Geo Cald ell, Harry Day, Lake Dorris, George Fish, Merrill Phlllipsjames Powell.Oley Wood worth and A W Thompson, with several others among the probabilities. Ticketed for Ashland. This morn ing a strange young man was picked lip on Washington street, where he had fallen and medical assistance sent for. It was as certained that his name was C. A. Sum mers, and that he bad a severe case of hem- orrhage of the lungs. In his pocket he had a ticket from Nova Scotia to Ashland and that was all he did have, being penni less. He had left his satchel somewhere for lodging, and was altogether a pltlaole case. He fell again about noon this side of the depot, and took the noon train south. Not Coming. Our spirit is lnimh!-d. I After all of our wild anticipation over a visit irom Rev. iXoody he is not coming. A letter from Mr. lacks to Prof. W. H. I Lee received on Saturday night's train con- Iveyed the tidings.

One of the funniest of occupations (to an Oregonian) is that of herding geese in the Saoramento valley, California. The wheat growers of that region are tormented by flocks of destructive geese that pull up the sprouting grain and do expensive damage. The farmers employ men who are paid one dollar a day "and grub." Mounted 00 horses they ride around the wheat fields and shoot geese from before sun up to dark. The fe.there of theeeese just about pay for the a nmumtion. bx- GREAT decided to close eralMerchandise ken. t rfl.rv8ern 0f SearIe 4 De,i in the city contract.
