City Olcial Paper.
The official account of the rrinle-
T8 in Austria shows that the disease
followed the course of the rivers.
The firt dispatch that reached
Wichita, Kan., after the recent cy
clone in Oklahoma, was brief but
suggestive. It read: "Send forty'
one coffins."
Oregon may not have picked
many prizes off the presidential
Rppointment bush, but its governor
lias picked the chances of many an
office-seeker from Webfoot realms.
Statesman.
Cbicugo is indeed a festive city.
vne Minday a sport stood on the
isteps of one of the most prominent
churches, and distributed cards
among the people as they passed
cm, wnicn invited them to attend
a craps game in tbe rear of a saloon.
The Chicago Tribune estimates
on tue scale ol present prices that
a temperate, economical man can
pet along in that city during the
World's Fair on 13 a dav. Thin
will include lodging, board, car
i are, and admission to the Expo
sition. The government has begun to
suppress all newspapers in Mexico
whicn are pronounced in their op
position to the Diaz administra
tion. Nearly ICO newBDaners.
including El Democrat, one of the
leading dailies, were forced to sus-
fend publication last week.
, An illustration of the power often
exerted by little things was wit
nessed the other day in San Fran
cisco harbor when "the giant war
ship, Monterey, of nearly 10,000
. horse power, was rendered helpless
by her propeller getting wound up
jn an ordinary fishing net. Ex.
Tl is 'ated that the president has
- luiiounced -his purpose to call a
'Special session Of ttiCfnss between
thf-firct snd fifteenth or Setera
'!. niiless nnlnoked! for circurn
Vnces should demand an earlier
meeting, which he does not think
probable. The purpose of this
called session will be to enable con
gress to act on the financial as well
as the tariff question and get both
of these important issues settled
before the regular session in Decem
ber. An American acrobat in Vienns
won a queer wager recently,
lie bet a considerable sum, says
tbe New York Sun's London corre
spondent, with a Vienna strong
man, that be could nut endure to
have a litre of water fall drop by
drop, from a height of three feet,
nv,n his hand. When 300 drop
ii-J i.uicii the athlete's face became
red, and be looked as in pain. At
the 420th drop be gve up, saying
it was impossible to bear the pain
sny- loneer. Tbe palm of his
hand was swollen and inflamed,
and in one place the skin irad
broken open. Only a small portion
of tbe litre of water had gone to
make up the 420 drops.
It may be doubted whether hotel
juices would have been much bet
ter in New York than in Chicago,
bad the former been chosen fur the
fair. A boast is being made that
any purse can be suited in New
York The one with a few dollars
as well as the heavy one with hun
dreds for a day's substance and en
tertainment. But Chicago is
making the same boast, with un
doubted certainty at least on the
side of the big pocket-book. The
visitor of small means, at the
worst, can buy a railway ticket and
sojourn in some not distant towns
where the notions of board and
lodging are not so exaggerated.
The regular Chicago botels are re
ported to be prepared with a sur
prise for guests. They are not to
charge an extra scale for their
rooms, but two or three beds are to
be placed in each and the guest will
pay for a half , iw. ... . .-...
what he used to pay for a whole.
There are, therefore, various ways
of raising the rent. To many
people this must be very disagreeable.
FOURTH OF JULY.
The people of Lebanon are mak
ing arrangements to properly cele
brate this historic day. A sub
scription hns been passed around,
and the people have libers II v

to obtain good sneakers.
Let ample provisions be made to
insure a good time to all. Lebanon

prosperous neighbors. Let Albany,
Sodaville, Waterloo, Sweet Home,
and the rest of our neighbors come

The San Francisco Report gives
its opinion of Pennoyer's answer to
Graham's telegram, in the follow
ing plain language: "Pennoyer
made a blackguard of himself be-
r n l ii .
mre au vne wona oy sucn an
answer, and there in not. pnnlia nn

better manners. The president

of Oregon were yesterday."
Three meek looking Chinamen,

Brown promptly ordered them de
