EVENING CAPITAL JOURNAL. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 1888. rERSONAUS. a R. Jury is home again. cnntor M. L. Chamberlin bas gone to The Dalles on a business trip. The presence in town of Dr. G. W. giggars, of Bellevue, Idaho, is noted. Senator Slator and wife are visit ing their sou, assistant state treasurer. Dr. Gray of the blind school went to Portland in the interest of that iustitutiou, to-day. Charly Gilmore who has been fireman on the steamer Hogue, went to Portland to-day, W. T. Roberts who lost two fingers from his left hand by an accident at the Dorrance planing mills, at the agricultural works, went home to Woodburn to-day with the amputated fingers preserv ed in a bottle of alcohol, and the wounded hand doing well. C. Cannoyer was to-day called to Ucrvais where his wife is, her uncle, Mr. Seals, an old farmer of that place, being at the point of death. Mr. Cannoyer informed the aportrr that ho was in the same raiment, 7th Xcw York heavy ar tillery, with Mr. F. Lockley, the clltor of Tub Journal. . Want to be First In the Field. It is not supposable that the prohis expect to change the political com plexion of Oregon, or to elect their presidential nominees. But they eem determined to be first in the Held in this campaign. Meetings have been held in Jefferson, Wood burn and Silverton, and last night die Salem prohibition club held its second open air meeting, at the cor ner of Commercial and State streets. A large, miscellaneous crowd was attracted by the "musical prodigies," the two littlo boys of J. C. llobcrt son, the ultra prohl of Turner. Dressed in scarlet uniforms the little follows stood up in a carriage and played on comet and tuba, almost as big as themselves. The principal addresses was dellverd by Rev. J. W. Hines, San of Jose, Cal., who re bunted his rccentvlsits, in the East in the Interest of prohibition, to the Labor Union National Convention, the New York and Michigan prohi bition state conventions, tho Flsk and Brooks ratification meetings, to Chicago after the republican conven tion, and to Grand Master Work man Powderly "and Father Mc Olynn. Mr. Hines is very enthus iastic and expressed himself as con fident that 75,000 prohibition votes would be cast in New York, nearly 50,000 in Michigan, and a great many more than ever before in Cali lurnla. Prof. Rork followed with a characteristic talk. Throughout the proceedings the attention was good for a street corner, but the fnfnt response to tho few who applauded, showed that the prohis were in the minority. Needed An Aid Society. The JouitKAii gladly seconds the -ingestion that the usually generous public of Salem do not let Mr. Law and family sutler. He is an in dustrious man of good chamctor and was diligently providing for his own when the accident nt the snv mill laid him up with n lacerat l knee that may result in u stiff or dwibled joint. Ho had hardly be come settled among us when this "ccurred. This again makes per tment the suggestion oflered wore than once In thesso columns that Salem should have a general, unitarian aid society.

Ckaim Crj ArPit Ans Cisterlt , MORE EASTERN TEACHERS. , Tho Last Delegation Passed Through Salem. Fruifs, Flowers, Songs and Cheers. Representatives of the Board of Trade, the Land Company, the State Board of Education, tlife three dally papers and other Salem inter ests were in waiting at the Califoi nia express this morning to bid be tween thirtyaud forty teachersfrom the National Asssoclatiau God speed on their way home. The next thing heard after the scream of tho whistle was "My country tis of thee" com ing on the breeze from male and fe male voices and hearts. Mr. Alex ander Weiss, of New York, accom panied tho delegation and made an admirablo leader. He led the sing ing; he was seeing that all was well in the car; he was on the plat form of the car; he was on the de pot platform; he voiced tho thanks of the teachers for their welcome and tho hurried hospitality; he started the cheers for Salem, for Prof McEl roy, who accompanied them from Albany, for Oregon at largo; he gave the Joukxal reporter needed infor mation. Ho was jolly, ubiquitous and a genralissimo. All in the par ty appeared to be intelligent and very sociable, anxious to learn all they could about the great state through which they were passing and regretful only that they did not have time to stay over and see more. They had enjoyed the whole trip over the railroad. Fruit and llowers, and pamphlets descriptive of this town and valley were taken to the spacial car by Dr. Minthwno Superintendent McElroy and others. With thanks and cheers, and singing an improvised ditty with a refrain "We'll be back in Salem" they went their way to tell across tho Rockies the wonders of tins western coast. A list of those comerislng the party is appended and each one will receive to-morrow morning, nt the Esmond hotel, Portland, a copy of this paper as a reminder that he or she is wish ed a safe journey and a happy re union at home.

I also make a groat effort to catch the innocent little ones in their happiest mood and most child like 'ways. For the purpose of showing the people my facilities for taking tho photographs of children I will make negatives of children up to threo years old free of charge until tho middle of Sep tember. This is a fine opportunity to get your littlo ones photographed. T. J. Chkiuungton, Now Bank Block, 145t-dw. Salem. Give Himself Up. William Davis, who committed a deadly assault on Layton Tindle, by striking him ovor the head with a stake whllo at work throshing near Ballston, Polk county, last Friday, came out of hiding yostorday, and gave himself up to the authorities at Perrydale, and was taken to Dallas for examination. Tindle was a little better yostorday, and was able to speak and ask whero lie was. To-day he is worse and cannot recover. This Is a wid commentary on the folly and crime of letting anger break through all restraints, whatever tho provoca tion. Tho president has iwuud an or der placing Gen. Sclioneld in com mand of an army headquarters In Washington ; be will alao continue in command of the division of the At Untie. No other ehauges liave leen made.

Webb will respond to an invitation to preach at the Squirrel Hill school house on Sun day at 11 a. in. There is yet another fruit drier. It is located on tho upper story of one of the buildings on the campus. Tho sun furnishes the heat. Wonder If visitors are not apt to mistake that vigorous second growth of clover in full bloom, on the university campus ground, for tho main crop that was cut and housed long ngo. The Statesman local jingo gives the very many friends of Prof. T. F. Campbell a stinging slap in the face. Somebody's spleen may be gratified, but who Is benefited by such a course? An Aurora correspondent says tho fruit crop is very abundant and in danger of going to waste for want of market. Hope is indulged that the Woodburn cannery will take considerable of it. They need an evaporator there. Who will start one and get rich V Men with a complete outfit of mining and blacksmith tools go out to the Capital mine on the Santiam to prosecuto the work of opening It up with vigor and perseverance. Tho directors are president, John G. Wright; secretary, .1. II. Strlckler; treasurer, J. J. Murphy. We learn that J. B. Tichcnor yes terday effected a sale of the 44 acres, five miles south of town,' to Mr. Gus. Freniard, from Kansas. The place belonged to Mrs. Esther A. Dunn, and brought $1,035.

There is so much building of barns, granaries and hop houses through the country that lumber tells as soon as sawn. Ho has also a mill at Canby. He is reported to have bought considerable timber land along the river. ti. A. R. RESOLUTIONS.

A lino young citizen, will con nected, well raised, well married and well settled In life, Mr. Horaco Hawley of Bethel, met his death in n most lamentable manner, last Monday. In the evening at McCoy, nfter hunting for grouse ho was talking to Mrs. Finn and un thoughtedly rested his gun on tho edge of the sidewalk, with his hand over the muzzle. Tho gun slipping from his hand both barrels were, without a moment's warning, dis charged Into his abdomen making a frightful wound, too terrible to describe in detail. He was at oncy taken Into Belt's drug store, medical aid and relatives were sum moned, but death, which alone could fully relieve his sutlerings, took place about 9 o'clock. This will prove a terrible shock to the family, especially his young wife, datighterofHon. CyrusSmith, of Amity, his father, Hon. J. II. Hawley, and his devoted mother who is in poor health. Ho was raised In the neighborhood and was highly esteemed. He was a member of the ChrUtian church, as are his parents and other members of tho family. A littlo child is left with tho mourning young wife and mother. The funeral was to take place to-day. It is no Idlo nor merely customary phrase we use when we say that the sympathy of all who know them will go out to the bereaved ones. l.KTTKU LIST.

The people of Salem are perhaps now moro wide awake on tho sub ject of Immigration than ever before. All kinds of means nro being taken to advertise their vicinity. Nearly every train from tho south is full of tourists going east by the northern route. They aro met at tho depot with great baskets of IuscIouh fruits for them to sample, and sometimes an agent is sent up to Albany to meet them and say, that If thoy will stop ovor from the morning to the afternoon train, carriages will bo at their command to view the sights about the capital city. Such treat ment is like bread cast upon the waters, or as good seed sown upon good soil there will bo a paying harvest time. Itemlzer. Threshing Machinery In Demand.
