ADIEU. DIR. Nichols, temporarily asso-
ciated with DR.. Kellogg, will leave us by to-
morrow's stage. The Doctor visited our
Territory for the benefit of his health, which
he now finds greatly improved. Although
much pleased with oar climate, he finds it
necessary to return to Minnesota, where he
occupies the highly honorable and response
able position Of physician and surgeon in the
Minnesota State Institution for the deaf,
dumb and blind, which place he has held for
the past l6 years, receiving his seventeenth
appointment while here. We have found
both DR.. Nichols and Dr Kellogg pleasant
gentlemen, and Judging from the great num-
Der OF patients who daily visit their office,
We conclude that they are eminently sue
cessful in the practice of homeopathy. Dr.
Kellogg being unable to properly attend to
his large practice, has made arrangements
with Dr. Nichols, by which his son, A ).
Nichols, who is graduate of the Hahnemann
Medical College Of Philadelphia will be IS
sociated with him at an early day.

THE COSMOPOLITAN HOTEL, at Portland
was totally destroyed by fire, at an early
hour on Saturday morning last The fire
originated in the lamp room, and it spread
so fast that 1t was with difficulty many OF
the inmates made their escape. One man,
the occupant Of a room on the third foor,
persisted in the flames Dan Holten, the
proprietor is a heavy sufferer, his loss being
only partially covered by insurance. The
Cosmopolitan was the Oldest hotel in Port
land, having beer builL n 1852, by Col \.
P. DcanisOn. For long time it was kept
by man named Birdseye, well known to all
the early pioneers. Dan Welsh, formerly
of Walla Walla, but now leading and pres
porous Montana merchant, was interested In
the house at in early period, and was one of
the most popularmen everconnected with the
establishment. Foryears 1t was the leading
hotel on the Northwest coast, and as such
it has an rnwritten history full of interest
It was in the old house that Ferd Patterson
shot and killed Capt. Staples, and this is
only one of many incidents that might be re-
lated. But the old building is gone, and in
the hurry burly of life VIII soon be forgotten.
