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.

iVotelN the following story about an As

Drain for awhile: "The man has been
decidedly unsuccessful In his searches for

judging from street exhibitions, which are

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.
