Nothing now has developed In the
Mills Wagner tragedy. The coroner
held an inquest over the body of Wag
ner and the Jury brought In a very
queer verdict, so we understand, which
rend about as follows: "We, the jury
summoned to enquire into the death
of James It. Wagner, find that he came
to his death from a pistol shot fired by
Isaao W, Mills and we And Mills guilty
of murder in the first degree." The ev-
idence and verdict would be published
but the officers refuse to let us have it.
Mills is not able to leave his bed but
ne soou as the doctors think he can, hie
preliminary trial will take place. -Priuevllle
News.
An exchange tells the following good
story: "Two tramps beat a saloon
keeper in a western town out of sev
eral drinks of fine whiskey by a queer
trick recently. They passed a gallon
jug over the bar and asked to have It
filled with whiskey. After It bad been
filled they tendered a dollar in pay
ment. The bartender said the whiskey
was of W kind aud refused to take the
dollar, The tramps declined to pay
more, and the bartender emptied the
liquor back Into the barrel and handed
back the jug, After going some dis
tance the tramps smashed the jug and
squeeied several good drinks of rali
k t i two M gwfu k & jjt,u.
WATERLOO TRUTH.
A fight Is now In progression for the
post office, but it will terminate like
the war between England and the
U.S.
Waterloo has a flourishing C. E.
society, Home Forum and A. P. A.
lodge, and will probably get up a peti
tion to have the county seat here in
the future.
The town will be quieter this sum
mer, under the management of Frank
Gleason as marshal, Frank having
made a record before.
We would like to see a band organ
ized here, as there are plenty of people
and money this small town rivalling
Albany in trade.
Boys that tear up song books, just
for meanness, seem to be preparing
fuel for themselves elsewhere in the
by-and-by.
If the populists that were not nomi
nated for office at the convention have
changed their minds, like one we
know, the democrats will poll a strong
vote.
Being a new recruit, we will only
ask for a small space iu the Express
now, and that in a comer, but about
election time we will petition for a
whole page to hold our cablegrams.
We will not begin our weekly mes
sages with "Rain," "Snow," "Fog"
or "Frost," because we kuow that
people in this part of Oregon see such
things about the time we do, and of
tener than sunshine. We will not
offer a tin medal to anyone for sorting
out our grammatical errors. We do
not write for educated people, but for
fern diggers, hayseeds, etc. Having
given our constitution, we will now
proceed to find out all the happenings
and record them in black and white,
so beware of McGinty's Ghost.
As predicted by the Express a few
weeks ago, the Southern Pacific Co.
has taken off the passenger coach on
the Lebanon branch, and in its stead
has put on a regular, old-fashioned yel
low caboose with seats running along
the Bides, This throws the passengers
and baggage almost together. In the
first one put on there was no partition
between whatever and as there is a
great deal of poultry shipped from this
place the passengers, baggage, poultry
and all the express had to go in the
same caboose. It is said it .was a queer
combination. The people are Justly
indignant at such treatment and if the
company keeps this caboose on, a
great many people will go to and from
Albany by team when the roads get
good, instead of riding in. this car.
This car is very little ahead of the old
stage Hue.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
By local applications, as they canuot teach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
wbj- to cure clearness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafuess Is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tubo. When this tube gets lullauicd
you have a rumbling sunnd or imperfect hearing,
and when It is entirely closed deafness is the re
sult, and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to Its normal condition ,
hearing will be destroyed forever: nine eases out
of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars lor aoy case
of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be
curod by Hall's Catarrh Cure, Send for circulars,
free.
