liAin.v Tkkatkii. Joseph Ramirez, the
leader of the Spanish Troubadors, who
left Portland some months ago with Carl
King, the mind reader under the manage
ment of William Darnell, has returned to
the city. Tne tour was a disastrous one.
Mr Ramirez speaks in bitter terms ol the
treatment lie received at the hands of
Darnell who he say", left him sick with
pneumonia and owing him $600. He
was dclirimi for several days and no one
expected lilm to live, lie was penniless
in a strange town and had a wife and
family dependent on him for support. As
he was a Knight of I'v'.hlas, however, he
was not left to die. This order paid Ills
hotel bills and doctor hills and gave lilm
transportation back to Portland. Mr
Kainirez thinks that Darnell and King
went to Chicago. Oregonian.
A Paralytic Strokk Saturday even
ing "Uncle" George Hughes was fishing
on the bank of the river near the old saw
mill, when he was taken with a paralytic

Hi gained consciousness, but has remain -ed
In a critical condition, and it is thought

Didn't Jump It. The Mill City Ga
zette snys: Edward Wolfe Is not supposed
to be a claim jumper, as reported to the
Daily Herald, of Albany, and the Mill
City Gazette He has a legal right to the
mentioned cUiui.as the prior squatter had
been off the land for eight mouths, and
havii.g previously exhausted all his claim
filing rights, was trying to illegally hold
the claim. The Wolfe shanty was not
blown up, only the logs rolled down Mr
W. is now quietly selt'ed upon the claim
with his family and intends to remain. It
Is theiefore plain t be seen that the first
story was exaggerated and that Mi Wolfe
is not a claim jumper, trespassing upon
the rights of others, as reported.
