B CAPITAL CITY NEWS. Recital of (he Daily Doings Compiled From Various Sources. Happenings Over llio City and From tho Country. News Avery His done. Frank A. Avery, the mini who was shot on the train near Gervals Boveral weeks ago, left last night on the overland train for San Fran cisco, where he will remain with his parents until completely recovered. The ono ball remains iu his back yet, tho surgeons being unable to extract it. There is considerable of .Tekyl Hydo about Avery, after all. In appearance he is a gentleman and so conducted himself hi the presence of the writer. But those who con stantly attended him during his confinement say he Is ono of tho vilest of men, with no ambition above a life of pleasure and excesses. Oregon drown Tobacco. There was somo tobacco raised at Eugene last year of which samples were sent to San Francisco, to test its valueformanufacturing purposes, says tho Register. The report is to the effect that the product show's n healthy growth. There is no ques tion about the success of tho grow ing, but in tho matter of curing there is much to bo learned that is essential to success. There Is an immense consumption of tobacco on this coat and a marketable product would meet with prompt sale at re munerative figures. A Sadly Peculiar AcclJciil. .Too Avery of Corvallis, who is very ill and has been for some time, had a very peculiar accident hap pen to him Sunday, which, it seemed for awhile would terminnto fatally. Tho doctor placed a thermometer in tho boy's mouth to take his temper ature, and tho llttlo fellow, uncon scious of what ho was doing, closed his teeth on the thermometer, break ing it. Beforehoeould bo prevented he had swallowed tho mercury. He may recover, tho Leader is informed. The Railroad Commission. Concerning the Governor's veto of this bill and tho house passing it over hjni, the Albany Democrat's correspondent saye: "Tho emergency clause will bo of no use. The Governor did not sign tho bill. If it become a law by pass ing it over his veto, then it will run ninety days. If it run ninety days, then the Governor will appoint tho commissioners. It will bo forced upon him to do so. The tun is in solving this question. Does the veto of the Governor change the con dition of tho bill so as to destroy tho emergency clause ? It must, for that destroys the condition upon which it becomes a law, 'as soon as signed by the Governor.' If the Gov ernor does not sign it, that emer gency con dition cannot bo complied with, hence niuetv days must run. If tho ninety days run then the Governor must appoint tho commis sioners. This being the caso wo look two sets of commissioners if tho the veto is not sustained, one set to be appointed by the legislative assem bly aud the other by the Governor." OUR PEN PICTURES.
