Atrip along Water street was full ot interest. Sidewalks were upheaved or taken awav, the platform of the Oregon Pacific railroad was gone and the wharf wa? a wreck. The L'nion Pacific vhari will make iood lire-wood and the otlice was well washed out.

J R Kirpatrick, Mr W Beck.ot Seatle so'd to S E Young and wite 25 acres and to Miss Sarah Allhouse lYi acres of land adjoining that city, being in the (vicinity of the property owned and sold by Mrs Young last year. The con siderations were $13,000 and $7,500. Rev. Klrkpalrick predicts the land will double in value in 90 days. A good ex ample of the manner in which property has increased in value at Seattle is the Sio nrren which Mrs Younff sold for $20,- 000. makini 18.000 on it. On the 8th of January the tame property was sold for $40,000. Is a Hammock.

Abous that time matters had begun to look a little dubious to Mr. McKinney. The party were two hours rowing a mile up stream tc a neignuor s nouse. A Familiar Rixg. The following from the Junction Pilot has a familiar ring to it, and suggests that there are really a great many people not deserving of pationage, and at the same time some who do lall to get it: "A lecture and elocutionist stopped off here on Monday and billed the town for a performance at the opera house, but owing to the extreme bad weather or some other cause he had no audience.

A man from across tbe rivjr says about one hundred yards of the bank at the bend iust west of tbe city baa been washed away and that a little more would turn the river through Cloverdate. The government will have to build a revetment if it keeps on. There are men in Albanv who will perse cute themselves as much as the man told about in the following. They are the ones ho want other men to pav tor improve ments while they reap the benefit and who borrow their neighbors papets instead of taking one themselves : "Ben Williams. of Lansing, Mich., has a novel way ot ridding his face of whiskers. Every Sunday morn ing for the past twenty- two years he has sat down before the glass and pulled tbe hair out of tlie lower part of hut face with a pair of tweezers.
