Gark.ud of this place. The old fence around the Ballard property has been replaced by one more in keeping with the prevailing fashion.

The men connected with the mil! are glad to see O'Neil, as they will be set to work at once, r After going to Cruson & Menzies hardware store and getting prices, we find that they are selling goods as low a any place in the valley.

If everyone would sweep the streets in front of his own building it would lighten the labors of the marshal, but no one seems inclined to detract one iota from the honors of the niarashl hip. The Lebanon police .force was in creased to three men Saturday night and also Sundav night. Through the vigilance of tnewe men, wno patrol lea the streets all night long; no harm befell the town. Let everybody go to tho picnic on Peterson's butte, Saturday, and have a good time. Also bring your dinner basket crowded full of good things, for the dinner will be one feature of the occasion.

Our German citizens had a dispute this week concerning the German ; name for cabbage, rtiffering very ! widely as to the name of this vegeta- j ble during the process of growth, but when it came to the manufactured pro-1 duct known as sauer kraut they were a unit in declaring it "yustso good as euuy dings vat eber vas." Mv increasing trade has promoted me to buy largely. I have a large bill . of all kinds of shoes on the way from tne least, also trom ean jf rancisco, inai will soon be here, and then we can fit anyone in size, quality or price. Re-i member I pay cash and sell for the same; therefore we can sell as cheap in . Lebanon as anywhere in Oregon. Hiram Baker. ' We wish to announce to the public that we have a large stock of wagons, buggies, hacks and carts, direct from the factory in the East. We have aelt-cted these gewwia to suit the climate, roads and people of this vicinity, and we cordially invite all those wishing to buy anything in this line of goods to call on" us before purchasing else where. Cruson & JUenzies. A gentleman living not far from town (and by the way he has travel led a good deal) saw liis first elephant at McMahon's eircus last Saturday. Of all the men who saw that animal on that occasion, this gentleman only had the hanesty and hardihood to ac knowledge it. Candor is one of the commendable traits of human nature, and yet how few there are who possess it. Benjamin Harrison could not have chosen a more inopportune time to show himself to the people of Lebanon than the date fixed upon. Lebanon people at this time are absorbed iu the one great question of building the Leb anon canal. Our citizens act on the motto of "business before pleasure," and we trust the President will inter pret our absence in the light of this motto. Two hundred newly-mamed couples wanted at E. Goan's furniture store, to buy bed room sets, that they may sail through life "on flowery beds of ease." I am not seeking an invitation to your wedding but I do want to congratulate you and start you on the highway to prosperity by furnishing your rooms with the" best, the haudsomest and cheapest furniture this side of any- w n ere. The following statement from Mr. W. B. Dennv. a wel- known dairyman of New Lexington Ohio, will be of in terest to persons trouulea witn Kiieo mat tp m. He says: "I have used Cham berlain's Pain Balm for nearly two years, four bottles in all, and there is nothing I have ever used that gave me as much relief for rheumatism. We always keep ft bottle in the house." Forsale by M. A. Miller, druggist. ' I know tnrien quite near by, Wbers ftowera irrow most rare: But mind, you neiphboiw. keep away. For a. lawyer figures there. His love tor flowers vai one day sncfa That he eould not put ft down: Bo over he went, and dug up roots. Not even leaving ground. Oh, what ft greedy monster: r or K Duttonnoie Douquet, To want garden, erou1 una, pota, and pans, a v. And all, quite all, the say. Stray Thought. An elderly gentleman, living a few miles out of town, patronized the hell game la?t Saturdav to the amount of about $50. After the circus he repaired to the bank to deposit, for safe keeping, notes to the amount of $885. On en tering the bank he reached for his wal let containing the notes, but found it was missing. Search was made, and notwithstanding a reward of $25 was offered for the recovery of the wallet, it has not been found to date: We call the attention of our readers, fn this issue, to the legal card of Mr. Geo. W. Wright, one of Albany's most prominent lawyers. Mr. Wright is a graduate of the Law De partment of the University of the State of Missouri, and has practiced law in Ooregon for tho last 8 years. He de sires us to say that all business en trusted to h s ca-e is insured to be well and safely done, and only the most reasonable charges made for the same. - There is an old addage that "what everybody says must be true." Henry Cook, the leading merchant of New Knoxville, Ohio, says; "Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has takeu-weil here, everybody likes it. They say it gives immediate relief." That is what makes it so popular. It is prompt in relieving a cough or cold and can al ways be depended upon. There is nothing that will loosen and relieve a severe cold so quickly. Forsale by M. A. Miller, druggist. The membership of the M. E. church invaded the parsonage ou Saturday Aevening last, taking their pastor, Rev. the high esteem in which the pastor is held, a well-filled purse was left at the parsonage. Rev. Boyd, although young man. Has shown himself "a workman, approved of God," and such tokens of appreciation are taken by him at their full value. The subject of tnis nonce oemg too iuu ror utterance, we promised to thank the kind people for himself and wife. The shell attachment to McMahon's circus drew a large crowd of men. all bent on fleecing the poor unsophistica ted manipulator ot mat innocent game. You lie men, middle-aged men, travel led men and men old enough to have known better were as anxious te get something for nothing as the man who introduced the came. The fool killer would reap a rich harvest here just now. Deep sympathy is felt for the poor unfortunate man who was com pt ilea to race sucn oaas. i nemen who won at this game are awaiting orders to fall into line of march over the Santiam bridge and kick them selves individually and severally. A travelling agent for a patent med icine firm stopped at the St. Charles lately until ne naa emptiea nis ootwes of extracts, bitters, and likewise his pocket book, and took his departure, leaving in pledge of his solvency a stuffed erin bag. When it was known that the last will and testament of the generous traveller was to be read pub licly, tne tnenas oi tne nose gatnerea in ereat numbers to witness the unroll ing of the precious document. The rrin wAfl niwnpd for the nurnose of tak ing an iuventory of stock, which con sisted of a few wooden cuts and a gross f oills. We ate anxious to know what disposition the landlord will make of tne property, as lis vaiue can oe ascer tained only by actual experiment. Vr Sale.

On Tuesday April 14, Wm. Barbour, a furniture dealer who has been doing business in Lebanon for about nine months, left for Portland on business, intending to return on Friday. Fail ing to return on that day. his partner, Mr. Ialglelsh, thought he had been detained on business and felt no alarm until Monday following, when he tele graphed to the firm in Portland with whom Mr. Barbour hud dealings, and from them he learned that he had made some purchases of them, paid them $6X and told them that he would leave for home on that day, which was r naay. rue news or -tsnroours pro tracted absence was wired his brother in Canby, who receiving the news went immediately to Portland and together with the police began the search for the missing man which to this time has proven unfruitful. The wife of the missing one is almost driven to distraction and it is feared that her apprehensions for the safety of her bus oana are not wunoui louuaaiion. Death of a rionaer Lady.

Throngs of visitors crowded the Eu reka meat market building this week, and our reporter, being entitled to all the privileges of an American citizen, thought it no harm to share the sights with his fellows. Occupiyog the north west quarter of the building was a full grown Switzerland cheese, in diam eter about the size of a cart-wheel, but many times stronger. The casket con taining this nias-sive cheese breathed the aroma of foreign lands,which made it a comparatively easy task to trace its nationality. Having traced the ownership of this cheese to a near neighbor, it was found that he had ordered the smallest cheese of the kind and receiving a 136-poond cheese, he has a curiosity tolsnow how large this product grows in his native laud.
