Lock' Midsummer Honors California, in her golden prime, never before achieved so grand a triumph as at the Midwinter Fair just closed. Among the honors conferred at the fair was bestowal of the highest award including gold medal, on Dr. Price's Baking Powder As at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago, the award to Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder at San Francisco, was for highest quality, demonstrated by expert analysis, under direction of U. S. Government Chemists. The requisites, in each instance, were superiority in leavening power, per fect purity of constituents, uniformity and wholesomeness. Dr. Price's is thus confirmed and permanently established as positively the Best Baking Powder Ever Mtde, wood is mentioned for the position of chief clerk of the secretary, of whom he Is a relative. So says the States man. The Lnfayette Ledger lias been closed up very tight. "Not gone be fore," says its self-Inscribed obituary, "but gone behind." The Wallowa Chieftain figures that the receipts of that section from cattle will enable the farmers and stock keepers to pay their debts, leaving the proceeds from hogs clear profit. Mr. KauHil, editor of the Ashland Record, who was arrested for libeling E. D. P.riggs, a lawyer, attacks him harder than ever and says he proposes to give tli news, and not publish a milk and water sheet.

This is true of the country at large," says Bradslreet. . Nearly every paper In Oregon is talking about putting wheat into hogs, 1 f all the farmers were to do it, hog meat would lie so cheap that it would not pay the cost of production, with out packing estubllshments. During a gulelast Tuesday afternoon I. Carter,' of Nehalein beach, was returning from Tillamook In a small boat. Tbe boat capsized, but he clung to it and drifted ashore near Kilcbie Point minus his coat, hat and two sacks of wheat.

Last week nt Corvallls, the two-year-old daughter of County Recorder Wal ters fastened a hulton-hook, with which she was playing, in the eyeball of one eye.

All of these have been used hy j people of the valley who have put up fruit for their own family use. There are still a few weeks of the canning season, and during that time the fig ures will probably be raised 6,000. GervaiB certainly is entitled to the pBlm for n Instance of depravity.

Compliments are numerous concern ing thefts of flowers and vases from The Dalles cemetery. ""A man who could rob a grave of the little toketn of love friends or relatives place on it," remarks the Chronicle, severely, "would sell his grandmother's shin bones for knife handles, or use them for shotgun barrels, if straight enough." The bank of J. H. Rhlnehai t & Bon of Summcrville, closed its doors to any further deposits on Monday, Oct. 1.

A novel deer bunt was indulged in by tbe steamer Robarls lust Suuduy, while waiting at the mouth of the Siuslaw river for the school) r May flower W come, says the Yuquinu News. A deer was observed running down to the water. It plunged in mid started to swim across the stream. The tug gave chase and soon cuiight up with the animal but all iiitempis to lasso it were prevented bj lliehiij.ii wind and a heavy swell. After many fruitless efforts had been made fir iis capture the deer finally got into shouj Water and escaped, much to the eha griu of its pursuers. During the big flood of 1881, a sixty gallon Iron kettle was taken off by the force of the water, from tbe old slaiigh ter house just north of Corvallis, then owned by John Baker, says (lie Cor vallis Gazette. The matter caused considerable comment at the time, as many thought it rather singular that so heavy a piece of hardware should bo thus carried away, but nothing more was heard of the missing cauld ron until last Friday when M. O. Hart discovered It about three miles below town. It was laying bottom side up wards in two feet of water r.tul about sixty feet from the shore. The inside of the kettle was covered with a thick coating of grease and was almost free from rust, although It had been uuder WMtr tot nearly ftiurlwwf Mrs, OBITUARY. Republican, Qoldendale, Wash., Oct. This community is called upon to lament tho death of one of its most respected and honored citizens in the passing away, at 4 o'clock, on Tues day, the 27th, of James Thompson, who had been violently ill for nearly a week before his death from inflammation of the bowels, acting on a constitution materially impaired by Brights dis ease. All that human skill could effect was done to prolong his stay on this side the silent shore, but without avail. James Thompson was born in Anderson county, Tennessee, August 8th, J847. Twenty-two yeara ago he emigrated to Oregon and settled at Onk Creek, near Albany, Linn county, In loz he was married to Mihs H. 1,. Cram, sister of Daniel Cram and Mrs. Austin of tins city, and removed to this county about nine years ago. For more than a quarter of a century he was a consistent and honored member of tlio Missonary Baptist church, and lor about tbroo years a member ol Goldeudale lodge F. & A. M. He leaves a wife and eight children, the eldest a son of twenty-one and the youngest about two years, besides an aged mother, four brothers and two sisters in Oregon. Mr. Thompson was highly esteemed in his community as an honorable Christian gentleman and a citizen of sterling worth. He was nominated nt the last Republican con vention for commissioner of the third district. He was buried Friday, the 28th instant, in the Odd Fellows' Cemetery nt Goldendale, tbe funeral services being ceudttcted by bis breth eru of the Masonic fraternity. Thieving in Brownsville. Some time ago the general mer chandise store of R. N. Thompson was entered by burglars and the safe blown open and so damaged that is was necessary to send the door to Portland for repairs. Fearing that another visit of a like nature might be made, Mr. Thompson hired Daniel Great house as nightwatchman, All was apparently going wall, when, on look ing through his stock, Mr. Thompson discovered that one full suit, an extra pair of pants and a pair of shoes were missing. Upon search the pants were found at the tailor's, where Daniel had taken them to have the buttons cutoff. The next move, after recover ing tbe pants, was lo lake out a search warrant and look through the klepto maniac's belongings, where the re maining articles were found hidden in a trunk. It. is perhaps unnessary to state that Dan It 1 lost his job, and that in this case the old saying of "seta thief to catch a thief," was verified, although it did not work exactly as Daniel's employer hoped it would, Brownsville Times. Commercial Affairs in Clatsop. The Astoria Budget tells the follow ing story of Clatsop commercial aftairs: A farmer living near Olney brought to town over one hundred boxes of apples which be desired to sell to a grocery man with whom he had been dealing and whom he owed a bill of about forty dollars. No; the groeeryinau didn't want the apples. Finally the farmer sold the apples to Mr. C. B. Smith, the candy store man for 75 cents per box . Mr, Smith got rid of a few boxes here and the rest he shipped to Portland and sold for one dollar per box. After the apples had resided in a commission stall at Portland about 24 hours they were sold to the Astoria Bond street grocery company and shipped back here to be sold. What the Astoria groceryman paid for them we do not know, but It is not at all probable that he bought them for the same price the Portland dealer paid. Lane County Fruit. The Register says: A car of Oregon fruit was sold nt Chicago September 20, by the Earl Fruit Company for Matthew Wallace and E. P.

A Mitchell Affair. News reached Prineville Thursday evening of a stabbing affray that occurred at Mitchell last Tuesday, says the Review. It BeeuiS that W. L. Campbell, a carpenter, was eugaged at work on a new building near tho resi dence of Dr. Houck. Henry Brown rode in and dismounting, left his horse standing ir'ar whero Campbell was at work, and entered the physician's residence on an errand. For some reason Campbell ohirrupped to Brown's horse and the animal started as if to move away. From this the men eu gaged in a quarrel that led to a fight. Campbell ran at Brown to clinch hint, and tbe latter used his pocket knife with such effect that Campbell received a wound about two inches deep and nine long below one shoulder, a out down the breast and a gash through the upper lip. Campbell bled profuse ly, but his wounds receiving prompt attention will hardly result fatalh. Ru.-wn furnished boncs-ln the sum of I b&M and was released, LMuinbell was resident of Urknt tiMtj. .
