On a Si-kcial Train The "Willam ette Valley" arrived at the Bay yesterday at 13 o'clock with a good cargo and about twenty first-class passengers. To save their waiting over night a special train was offered them and Conductor Kennedy brought them to this city, arriving here at 11 o'clock at nlht. In order to show their appreciation of the effort of the road to ac commodate them the passengers passed appropriate resolutions on the subject, which we give below : We, the undersigned passangers on U13 steamship "Willamette Valley," on the last t-ip from San Francisco to Vaquina Bay, desire to express our gratitude and appre ciation to the O. I. Co. for the courteous treatment received at the hands of the ofli cers and employees of said steamship dur ing the trip. Also to thank them for their promptness in sending us forward to our several destinations by special train from Yaquina. By reason uf the courteous treatment extended to us by saiu Company and employees in their efforts to make our trip pleasant and agreeable, we gladly recommend this route to persons traveling from San Francisco to Portland, knowing that no effort will be spared to make their journey both pleasant and comfortable.

One of the coo! est and cleverest cases of swindling that has been perpetrated in this city for some time was played upon one of eur popular merchants Thursday night, and in conse quence of tne same the merchant now counts his bank account $150 shorlays the Salem Journal. G. W. Johnson was the merchant. Here was the trick. A young man entered and bought $70 worth of goods. In payment the young mad tend ered Mr Johnson a check for $150 drawn by Ames Bros., of Silverton on a Portland bank. Mr Johnson told his customer that he had banked his money 1 hat evening end was afraid he would be unable to get the check cashed. His customer said "oh never mind, just keep the check until morning and I will call and get the amount due me. This seemed fair enough and the custom er departed, carrying his purchases with him. By the time the banks were opened Friday morning the stranger appeared at the store aeain and Mr Johnson handed him the balance of the check, So, after de ducting the amount ef the purchases. The ranger took the next train for Oregon City, t he cnecK provea a lorgrry. A Game of Ball. We have been un able to get full particulars of the game Saturday on the College campus between the College Nine and the "Pickups" from the city. Just when it began and ended Is nnt known, lames Blackburn and Ed Blodgett appeared as battery for the Col le&e Club and Lowell Jones and Jhn Cros- sen for the "Pickups." The Coliege Club went to the bat and stayed there most of the time, making 51 runs while their op ponents succeeded in getting in 8. Three or four innings were played.when the game was discontinued the score sheet not being larre en.ni'h for further business. In a few days it is proposed to pick up a nine that will make it warm tor me onejjc Doy, Common Occurrence. Items like the following arc very common in Portland papers, and the beer part is nearly always included: "James Bailey, an old man re cently from Kansas, reports the loss by robbery of $547 last Monday afternoon Bailey left the Merchant's hotel where he was stopping, remembers visiting the city park and several saloons and like resorts around town. He alleges that when he left the hotel on his jaunt that he was per fectly sober having imbibed but one beer, while on the other hand, persons is a posi tion to know say Bailey was two-thirds full and meat for rounders." Place for an Excursion Severa gentlemen who have been up the Santiam report a magnificent place a short distance from Gatcsville for an excursion party. It is where the Santiam passes through the rocks, on one side of the river, the cliffs rise perpendicular an immense distance, while on the other side the ascent is more gradual. At the point where the water passes through the distance Is only lour feet eight inches across. The scene is a rugged and grand one. Coming. "Every item of the Wade- Leroyle Co is novel and original with them, and the high press encomiums passed on their petformances previous to their visiting America, had led to great ex pectations, and from the laughter and ap plause which greeted the various changes, we safely predict a prosperous and suc cessful 6eason during their stay in Ameri ca, as their peiformance is entirely new, and of a novel and wonderful description."
