Ji an Becond-olaas mall matter. LOCAL RECORD. Albany's 4T.1. A formal acceptance of the invitation to come to Albany on July 4 has been received from the Whlteaker company, of Million county; Capt Rose, of K Co, of Corvallis, has given our cum pany assurances that that company will be here, though the invitation ha not been formally accepted yet, and as well a large congregation of people will llock from that city ami return the compliments of last vear, a special train running for the pur pose, arrangements for which have been completed. The Eugene company will probably come and we predict also the Salem and Macleay companies. The re sult will be the biggest celebration in the history of Albany. Half fare rates have been secured or will be on all the roads. I. S. A formal acceptance of the invi tation has been received from the Salem company. The boys there know wIk re to go to have a good lime. Forward, March! The Statesman refers to the matter in the following melancholy manner: "At meeting of Company R, Oregon National Guards, held last niiht. It was voted to ac cept the Invitation to spend the Fourth of July at Albany. The members- of the company offer no reasons to their home neighbors for this strange action." The Narrow Escape. Considerable fun has been occasioned by an article in the Exaininrrt of San Francisco, about a trip on the Narrow Gauge. The writer tells of grouse and pheas-nt hunting while riding, of trying to catch up with hogs, and among other things the following : "If you ever go up to Oregon," said Col Senter at the Baldwin "you don't want to miss a rip over the Narrow Escape railway that runs from an indellnitc point outside of Portland to wherever night overtakes the train. A man who likes excitement and adventure would enjoy the ride. The road has been in the hands of a receiver for some time , and has fallen Into a state of picturesque decay. No two rails on the entire system are on the same level, and there U an absence of straight lines and regularity that gives a charming variety and wariness lo the perspective of the tinck. The coldly practical theory that the rails should be supported by the tics uocs not nnu lavor with the section men on the narrow escape line. The tics hang from the rails by the spike-heads, but for the sake of variety an occasional tie Is per mitted to touch the road bed, which is large ly composed of loose cobbles. The line is about far.y miles long counting the twists m the rails, and the trains that leave the lower end early in the morning generally get up to one of the other ends by niirht. I don't know as you had better go up there right away to hunt on the train, When 1 'eft the Narrow Escape system was tied up by a strike. Ihe engineer hadn t got any pay for two years and he started a kick. The receiver received well enough, but he didn t seem to give up quite so well ; but, perhaps, that was because there wasn t much to give up. The section men didn't mind, be -fluse they could pick up a hand car load of old ties most any time and run down to old man Fairgraye's place and trade them off for beer." A Woman Trami A gentleman writes to Postmaster Moore trom Urooks, as fol lows, says the Roscburg Herald : "There is a woman tramp abroad imposing herself on the public in a queer manner, tier plea is poverty, which she says was caused by a faithless husband who left her in San Franciscoonc yearago leaving four chil dren for her to support without means. She followed him to Montana, her money fail ed, is now begging for means to return to California. She received the money from my good neighbors and a surplus of $4.25 She started for the train but never took it and played the same scheme in an adjoin ins neitrhborhood with equal success. She is tall, blonde, light hair, wears gray cloak brown straw hat, has small girl about two and a half vears old, liylit completion light hair." Albany people will do well to 'look out.

A Drunken Blind Man. A blind man led by a big man not blind, were in the city begging. The former got gloriously drunk Saturday evening, and then it was learned that he was not completely bl'nd, but only partly, and did not need any one to lead him. He and his chaperon dissolved part nership and are now going it alone. Alas, most beggars arc humbugs. Committed Suicide. Richard Garvais committed suicide at St Paul, Marion coun ty, last Saturday. lie performed the deli cate operation by placing an old Spring field musket at his head while reclining in the corner of a rail fence and piessing on the trigger. The reason for his thus put ting a quietus to his life was that he was disgusted with himself and the warld gen c rally. Hunting Strawberries.

Safety bicycles are no doubt safe when trained ; but for be ginners they seem like a bucking cayuse, judging from street exhibitions, which are something like this The novice is assist ed to a seat on the Meed by several obllgln friends. He grasps the handles and puts his feet in the stirrups.

BrtOWNELL & STAN.! tD Following is the Crop Weather Bulletin, No 11, for the week ending May 18, 1889, reported by the Oregon State Weather Bureau co operating with U S Signal Ser vice, central office, Portland, Oregon. The past week has been one of rain, lit tle sunshine and about an average temper ature. The notable feature of the week was the 6torm on the 13th, which found ered the steamer Alaskan off the Oregon coast, and gave to the state heavy rains, thunder and hail. The first report of the thunder storm is from Lane county, where rain fell in torrents and hail fell to a depth of from 0 to 12 inches. The thunderstorm moved njrth principally on the west side of the Willamette river, reaching Portland at 3:35 ' A portion of the storm moved north to facoma, doing damage and fatally injuring some persons, another portion moved eastward giving copious rains through Wasco, Morrow ar.d Uma tilla counties, causing the rivers and streams to rapidly rise, and doing slight damage. While west ef the Cascades re ports indicate that the wet weather has been ot Injury to winter n heat, in Lastcrn Oregon reports show that the late rains have been of great benefit. Never before has there been such uniform and flattering reports in regard to the prospects of crops as now come in from, Oregon as a whole and Eastern Oregon in articular. In Western Oregon, while the rains have not been beneficial to winier wheat, to the spring wheat it has given it strength, and it shows promises of more than an average yield. Warm sunshine is needed now to mature, more rapidly the strawberries and cherries, which have been greatly retarted by the cloudy, wet weather. In the Umpqua valley the strawberry pickers have been wearing gum clothes while picking the fruit. In the Willam ette valley there is danger of the winter wheat going into tjo much straw and to fall, clover in sections have a tendency to lodge. The rainfall for the week has been above the average, the sunshine below the aver age and the temperature about normal. B. S. Praoue, Observer, Signal Service.
