Mr. Tarrott, of The Palles, has bought and shipped from The Dalles 2500 hogs since September 1. GIIHam county people ore Importing bear dogs from Arkansas, to protect their sheep camps against troublesome pests. The largest number of salmon caught by one man in Coos, county, during a single night's flailing, was 247 chinnoks. A big eagle was killed by 1. 8. Pi It- man, near Harris nation, in Benton county, which measured seven feet from tip to tip. A single bean plant of the navy variety, grown on the farm of W. L. Curtis, near Forest Orove, yielded 5H beans, weighing 5 ounces, Tillamook, after being burned out tltree times and losing enough each me to pay for a good water system, as at last decided to put in water works. The cunnery slough and log boom, near the mouth of Coos river, la filled with drift. It look as though it would be an expensive undertaking to clear the jam. At Turner, December 9, and 10, a farmers' institute will be held under the auspices of the Oregon agricultural college, assisted by Surprise Grange, No. 2S8, of Turner. Marshal & Furnish, of Pendleton, sold a band of about 2500 sheep for hlpment to Nebraska, where they will be fed until in couoilion for the hicago mutton market. One day last week Mis Nauuie Chiles, daughter of County Judge Chiles, of Grants Pass, jumped, iu a fit f delirium, from a second story window. Hhe received no Injuries. E. E. Brodie, of Eugene, assislau keeper of the Tillamook rock light' bouse, aft'T having been away from he world lor more than seven months, is on a month'B leave from the light house. Over 40,000 head of beef cattle from Malheur and Harney counties have been sold this season, acoordlig to the estimates of those who have hired pastures to the drovers. This repre sents more than (1,000,000. J. Temple, livingin Umatilla county while nut hunting geese the other day, accidently pulled both triggers of the gun at the same time. The gun kicked and the young njuti's uose was badly mashed. The North Yamhill toll road to Til lamook is again open to travel to those who travel ou horseback. The horses are tied to the rope through the travel ing block at the ferry across the north fork of the Trask, and there they ha.-e toswlui togetacioss. Around Dallas the hop Industry is said to be reviving. There seems to be a general desire among hopgrowero to operate all the yards they can get hold ot the coming season. However, uot many of the yards that were plowed up will be replanted at present. An attempt was made iu Baker City one night last week to burglarize the seooiid-haud store of Frank Frey. The burglar was scared away from the window by F. C. Smith, who lives In the building, sending two bulleta from a pistol crashing through the win dow. As the time for making cash entry on the forfeited Northern Paelflc rail road laud expires January 1, 1817, the business of the laud office lu The Dalles is picking up, and there will lie quite a rush of business from this time until that date, says The Dalles Chron icle. W. H. Thomas, of Coquille City, says a great many logs went to sea during the late freshel, notwithstand ing the fact that lt had been stated that they had been caught lu the boom at Parkersbuig. He sayi com paratively few logs were saved, and estimates the loss at between 600 and 1000. There are a good many acres of potatoes still In the ground near New- berg. Late planted potatoes were not ready to dig uutil after the rains began to fall, and the way the rains have been coming, it looks a little like it might tie February or later before the ground would be lu good shape for diKglug. Charles Carlson, of Pendleton, has received a consignment of a carload of machinery for the Tacoma Minlnf & Milling Company. Ah soon as the roads are In good .condition, the machinery will hp seitt out to the company's mines at Texas H ir A spruce log was sawed nt Him ml cV Wheeler's mill, which, when rolltd on the carriage, had to be hewn off 011 the upper side to allow it to pass under the timbers which support the roof of the mill, says the Nehalem Times. Unfortunately the height of the roof support Is not give.i. The contract to put In the water system In Tillamook calls for a force of watr sufficient to throw a stream from a seventh eighths-Inch nozzle 70 feel high,, or two streams 40 feet high. This, Is thought, will give ample pro. taction, which will avert a repetition of the disastrous fires which have visited that city in the past. Much complaint is heard on Grave and Wolf creeks, on account of the sawdust washed into those streams. Last month I he salmon and trout fish ing was nearly ruined on account of the quantity of sawdust mixed with the water. Residi nts of those neigh borhoods are calling loudly for the Halt commissioners, The Alaskan owls, that sought refuge on the schooner Carrier Dove, 600 miles off the Columbia river, during the storm ot a week ago, were on ex hibition in Astoria last week. One owl is pure white and the other gray, evidently male aud female. The birds are quite large, ai.d the finest of the Kind eyer seeu in Astoria, yoito a crowd watched them kill and de vour pigeons tbal were fed to them. Judge Barton, of Liuu couuty, and Judge Terrell, of Marion county, re cently inspected the boundary bridges of the two counties. They found the Mills City and Gates bridges entirely out, 02 feet of the Btitjlon bridge out. The Green's ferry bridge, costing about 17,000, in a bad condition, and 6 feet of the approach to the Jefferson bridge out, ai,d the channel changed. This means a good deal of ei ense for the two counties. Highest of all La Leavening Power. Latest U. 3. Gov't Report Baltin ABSOLUTELY PURE TO PULL SNAOS.

Sw Ink has several hundred bushels i f potatoes yet to dig. He is the only potato grower who has not about al their potatoes dug. Gentlemen, when buying baskets, I advise you to carry them home im mediately, for if you are an unlucky man you will have to clean the school house next day without lunch. James Blacklaw was a victim of the last social. The shooting match was attended by quite a number of the boys and men from diflereut parts of the country. Jack Freeman won the most turkeys lour. Mr. Stokes, of Lebanon, three, Lloyd Simons, ot Sodaville, two and the remainder were woii by Tennesssseans. Mr. Freeman walked from Knox Butte, a distance of ten miles, because he had been ruled out of all the matches In that viciuity.

The new snag boat, "Mathloma," arrived up the Willamette for the first time Saturday, and until Monday afternoon was moored at t'ie'0. il. & K.tltick at Corvallls. The name lu gold letters ou the pilot house is a queer oue.Jhut it is none the less ap propriate for all that. It was before the pale face trod the valley of the Willamette that in the vicinitv of Eugene there flourished a tribe of Indians. Over the beautiful valley of the Willamette these red skins roamed and hunted, and up and down the Willamette their birch bark canoes glided. They had their legends and their religious notions, and around the camp fire at nigbt they played with the prattling pappooeea or chant ed weird refrains to aboriginal deities. The tribe was long since scattered to the four winds, and all; the monu ment left to their existence is the gold letters that describe the name of the new snag boat,' "Mathloma" Is the name the extinct Indian tribe gave to the Willamette river, and as the name of the powerful craft that 11 to Bteam up and down that river's bosom, It is exceedingly appropriate. The new boat is n magnificent craft of her type, and both officers and men are proud of her. She Is 134 feet long and 34 feet wide. Her engines are capable of developing 400 horse power, and she has a hoisting engine of 150 horse power. She is built as strongly as a war ship, and can stand many a hard knock from swift currents, snags and drifts, as she proceeds with her work of clearing obstructions out of the river. She has a bow almost as square as that of a scow, and half the way buck she Is perfectly flat on the bottom. She has hot and cold baths, and her uppartments, kept aa neat as a pin, are roomy and comfortable The "Mathloma" carries a crew of thirteen men, but she has accommoda tions for twenty. Captain Hatch formerly of the Ccrvallis and Hoag, is her master, and O. Galbraith Is first officer. Jeff Gwinn, formerly of the Corvallis and Hoag, is chief engineer, and Millard Hayes, of Corvallis, is one of the firemen and machinists Cor vallis Times. Oregon Office Seekers. Although lt Is yet early, there are numerous candidates for the offices to be tilled In Oregon when President McKlnley is inaugurated. The Ore goniau notes several applicants for the various offices. The most Important office in Oregon Is pott collectorshlp of the district of Willamette. T. T. Geer, presidential elector, is said to be after the place, but if rumor Is correct, he will find a formidable rival in his own county in the person of Ed ward Hirsch, who is reported as desiring the position, re lying largely on his brother's Influence as chairman of the republican state sentral committee, to carry him through. The time of the present col" lector of customs, T. J. Black, does not expire until next (September, and it is safe to say that at least he will All out his full term, Mr. Black was a sound money democrat. " i ' ' There are several candidates for the office of United States district attorney, now filled by Daniel R. .Murphey, Among those are John H. Hall, presi dent of the Multnomah league of clubs; W. E. Thomas, 1 legislative member elect; Julius C. Moreland, J.' M. Somers, of Albany, representing Linn county at the next legislature, and James A. Fee, of Pendleton, Judge Fee has practically secured the uuanlmous support of the republican of Eastern Oregon, and he has many" friends in Portland and the valley towns who will support him.: There ' have been rumors that Wallace Mo Camautand W. T. Hume were also cadidates for the district attorneyship of Oregon, but both men state peel. , tively that they are not. ,; It seems generally conceded that ' John W. Mlnto will secure the in dorsement of the state committee and other republicans of the state, for the position of United 8tates marshal, and, if rumor Is correct, hi, will be one of the first appointments made by Presl. ' dent McKlnley, while John P. Ward is expected to share the same good luck that has attended him In the past In securing the position of ap. pralserof customs. ' Says Let Them Go. The hop buyers, of Salem, have re solved to make Portland their head quarters, owing to the hostile attitude of some citizens aud the Statesman; and that paper says: "The Statesman has no excuses nor apologies to offer for Its attitude iu re lation to the disgraceful conduct 0' some members of the Hop Buyers' as sociation at the opera house thanks giving night. And the Statesman will rejoice with all law abiding citizens in removal of the buyers agents and headquarters of the buy ers' agents association to Portland, provided Thursday night's debauch Is a sample of things in store for us." In order to put the Express In the homes of litany who are not now tak ing it, we have decided to offer it from now uutil March 1, 1897, for only 25 cents. Ifyouarenot taking the Ex press already, take advantage of this offer and suboribe at. ouce, and if you are already a - subscriber, send it to some Eastern friend for four months- Baker carries the best corset Feath erbone, $1.25; a good corset, 65 cts.;a cheaper corset, 50 cts.

Sunday's Herald: DeLos Knor, familiarly known as "Lossie," son of the late Ellis Knox, was drowned Saturday morning while skating on ' Thornton's lake, situated a mile north of Albany m Benton county. About : fl o'clock he and Clem Jones went over to the lake with their skates. They found the ice apparently safe and had been skating a short time' over the shallow water near the shore.; Presently young Knox ventured over to the opposite Bide where the water was 10 or 12 feet deep. He slipped and fell upon the ice, which gave way and he sank into the deep water.' His companion hastened to his as sistance, but he, too, broke through the Ice and fell Into water breat deep. A man who was cutting wood near by procured a pole and assisted young Jones out. He tried to reach young Knox, but could not do so. The latter was swimming aud trying to pull hiniBelf upon the ice, but ii broke repeatedly under this weight, and each time immersed him in the freezing water. Before a longer pole could be procured lie beoante chilled aud sank out of Bight, News of the accident reached Albany quickly aud a party of men started fur the scene with grappling hooks. An hour later the body was recovered and brought to this elty. The deceased was aged.23 years. He was a young man of exemplary habits, and his untimely death was deeply deplored by all who knew him. Both of bis pareDts are dead. Mrs. P, Y. Duncan, of this city, Is his sister, and Is the only remaining one of the family. The deceased was a member of the Independent Order of Foresters.
