Thi Eugene cannery has completed
the work of drying prunes for the sea
son of 1893. The product dried
amounts to about 25,000 pounds of the
article ready for market, the green
fruit amounting to about 118,000
pounds. At Dr. Sharpie's dryer we
are reliably informed there were 60,000
pounds of dried prunes, or 220,000
pouuds of green fruit. In one day the
Dr. turned out four tons of dried fruit,
and he is oonlident that with proper
furnaces he oau easily dry five tons per
day. The eanntry will probably make
a short run canning corn before it per
manently closes down for the season.
This has been a very poor year for
caunpries. Nearly every one of these
institutions will lose money this year,

washed her face and was reaching for

was In-art disease. Mrs. Harris was 35

It seems to us that It would he ;i good
Ideu for the city council to pass an or
dinance making it a finable offence to
ring the church bell longer than one
minute at any one time. The way
some of the ringers have, of ringing
the bell for ten, nr fifteen minutes at
one time, has grown to be a nuisance
that should lie abated.

"During my term of service in the
army I contracted chronic dianrimea,"
says A. E. Bending, of Halsey, Ore
gon. Since then I Have used a great
amount of medicine, but when I found
any that would give me relief they
would injure my stomach,, until
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Di
arrhoea Remedy was brought to my
notice. I used it and will say it Is the
only remedy that gave me permanent
relief and no bad results folluw. For

The funny man of the EugeneGiiard
got off the following at Junction City's
expense. "We are told one oEJuueiiou
City's-ynung men has undoubtedly u
very bad case of lovesick tiesa. A few
days ago he called on the bdy love of
his choice, and informed her of the
state of his affections, and that he
couid not live without her; that unless
she-reciprocated with him exclusively
he would take strychnine and commit
suk-ide. To prove his assertion he
pulled a phial out of his- pocket and
paured part of the contents into bis-
hand. The horror struck maiden was
equal to the occasion. 'Hold on !' she
exclaimed,' 'I will get you some water
and it will not taste so bad.' "
Mrs. Sadie Toole, wifc of Wm. Toole,
who lives on a farm near Albany, was
arraigned in Justice Curl's court yes
terday on a charge of "pointing a fire
arm fit a human being." The com
plaining witness was L. O. Hiatl. It
appears that youiig Hiatt had some
difficulty witli Mr. Toole on account of
some cattle having got out of the field,
and threatened to whip the latter.
Mrs. Toole procured a pistol and
went gunning for the man who
was going to whip her husnaud,
and for her display of firearms was
placed under arrest by Constable C. G.
Burkhart. She waived examination
and gave (100 bonds for her appear
ance before the grand jury. Herald.
As will be remembered by our read
ers some months ago Elizalieth Jordan
mysteriously disappeared from the
residence of her brother, near Dexter.
The case excited the community and
there were some who unhesitatingly
claimed foul play and designated W.
E. Jordan as the party responsible for
the lady's disappearance. The talk
has now brought out a suit for slander
and damages, W. E. Jordan being the
plaintiff and Joseph Parker defendant.
The amount of damages asked by
the plaintiff lo $22,500. The case wiil
come before the next term of circuit
court and no doubt will be hotly cou
tested by both sides. The result of
tliis case will probably decide the fate
of some others in that neighlairhood.
Eugene Register.
The suit brought against the town
of Sclma by the Mongolians who were
turned out by the mob was not entire
ly unexpected. It has, however, come
in a different form from what was an.
tlcipated. Tile Chinamen, if the com
plaint is correctly reported, claim no
damages for personal abuse or for prop
erty destroyed, but ask the town to
make good to them money, clothes
and jewelry stolen. They will have to
prove to the satisfaction of the jury
tbat they lost any clothes or money.
Their property was damaged but they
have ouly their own testimony that
they did not do some of the destroying
themselves. We do not see why or
how the towu can be any more respon
sible for the thefts than they would he
for any other house-breaking. The
action of Ihe mob is by no means Justi
fied and the town might lie II able for
property destroyed by them, but we
think it going just a little too far to ask
pay for fictitious sums of money
claimed by the Chinese, to have been
stolen. Sclma (Cal.) Irrigator.
Council Proceedln-cs.

The minutes of the loabtwo-meetings

The committee who wcro to look Into
the matter of having the cross-walks
put In across the railroad track, made
a verbal report, and after discussing
the matter for some time It was decided-to
drop the cross-walk business
for the present,
Quite a long etltloii was presented
by Mr. O'Nell, asking for an arc. light
near Mr. Wassom's residence. Another
petition was read, asking for a light
near Chus. Stokes1 residence. Another
petition was read, asking for a cross
walk across the street near Mr. Wassom's-.
All these petitions were re
ferred to the committee.
A new cross-walk was ordered put
In across the street, at Judge Miller's.
The propriety of moving the arc
light from the cnrner.at Judge Miller's
to the corner at J. W. Menzies' was
discussed, but dropped for the present.
By motion an arc light was ordered
to be put in at the cross street at the
Baptist church.
W. C. Peterson, of the fire depart
ment, was present arid made a report

Mike Sexton, who for several years
lias filled Ihe position of section fore
man on the Niagara division oil, the
O. P. In a very workman-like manner,
was recently for some cause removed
from the position. Sexton blamed 0.
J. Mulcahy, father of Supt. R. E. MuW
cahy, for the loss of his position, and
met him on the train last Monday and
beat him in a shameful manner. Sex
ton's friends regret very much that
he so far forgot himself as to assault
and maltreat a man too old to defend
himself.
No wonder time is represented bb
haggard and worn out; a watch keeps
time, the chorister beats time, the
clock strikes time, the cars run on
time, the foreman lays out time, horses
run against time, people threaten to do
things if they get time, at a prize fight
they call time, soldiers mark time,
criminals serve time, few can spare
time, everybody now and then tries tn
kill time, and perhaps your subscrip
tion tn this paper Is behind time; if so,
please save time, by paying up this
time.
The good people of the north-east end
of the city have been much annoyed
for a long time by petty thieving. Bits
of harness, fat chickens, ducks and
turkeys, vegetables, oats, and things
too numerous to mention, have beep
stolen. The Injured parties have a
strong suspicion as to who is the thief,
aud a vigorous prosecution will follow
him to the Jail, Tbey mean business,
and the unlucky thief that falls In their
hands will fare badly.
County Judge J. N. Duncan and
Commissioner J. W, Pugh huve beeu
over to see the Sanderson wagon
bridge, which is again threatened with
destruction by the changing of the
Santlam's channel, The recent flood
washed away about fifty feet of the
bank, and the river threatens to leave
the biidge out on dry land, The river
cut just this caper a few years ago, and
the bridge was built twice its original)
length to cover the new ohanuel. The
bridge has already cost about (ilO.flOO
and the county officials are debating
whether it will be cheaper to keep fol
lowing up the changing channel or
tear the bridge down and rebuild it at
some point where is a more permanent
channel. Herald.
