DEATH OF \ STIANGER--Early IN the lnoiiIh
of July last, mechanic named Brown, came
to Walla Walla and was engag ged to make re-
pairs on the "SGandard Mills" owned Icy y.
McCalley & Son. From that date onward lie
was mainly employed at the mill, and eStap-
lshed \ reputation as an unusually competent
millwright. In the meantime he was taken
sick. aud Notwithstanding the unwearled at
tention of our best medical men aud the con-
slant care of Mr. McCailey and his family, he
grew worse, and finally passed away at an early
hour on Thursday morning. Deceased was q
brother OF One Arm Brown, who has so proml-
nentlv fiorlred in Ore -on politics, but beyond
this brother is not known to have any relatives
on this coast. As we are informed he was
native of Canada, and aged about A years OF
are Deceased was member of the Masonic
fraternity. under whose auspices he was buried

THg SHALL PoA.-SSeveral weeks since a
family c.,,.e into this valley and located on
lIill creek, about ,! miles above town. Shortly
..fte: their arrival two of the children were
taken down bywhat the physicians pronounced
measles. These c,.ses progressed unfaTorabiy,
anl death following. the discovery WAS made
that beth Of them died from couaueat small
pox. Mrs. Herbert, = lady lis:n; IN the nei5h-
borhood. had been very kind and attertiyc to
the childrn subsequently she WAS taken down
with the same disease and Iied. We learn that
still another Of the children is down with the
small rox, and with but slight hopes o. recov-
cry. Duriu., the sickness of the children, as
also Mrs. Herbert, the ne ,hbors visited freely.
and il is nov feared that the disease may have
been communicated to large number OF per-
sons. liz matters o. this kind We are not an
almmist. but inas,nuch as smallpox is ssricsly a
filth disease, We think it would be well for the
citv authorities to take measures to have the
streets and alley WAYS thoroughly cleaned
Money can be found to pay four or five useless
policemen, who scarcely earn the salt they eat
Under the circumstances it is worth while TO
sce whether money cannot be obtained to clean
the city, and thereby guard ;ainst the spread

MIRANDA JANE submits delicate question
for us to pass upon Her hair is jet black, and
she finds faxen ringless the fashion. The ques-
ton is, whether to dye her hair or procure a
wig of the prevailing color? OF two evils it is
best to chose the least. Hair dyes are posi-
lively injurious and often cause softening Of
the brain. Be natural if you can, but if not,

REMOVAL OF AN OLD LANDMARk-FranI
Orselh is now engaged in removing the old
frame building that has so long stood a. the in
tersection of Main and Second streets. With
possibly one exception this was the first build
ing erected within the limits of the presen,
town of Walla Walla 1t was built by Frank
Worden, and by him occupied as early as 1851
as a trading post. After Werden removed to
the Bitter Root country, it WAS next occupied
by Dusenbery Bros, who there laid the found..-
tion of their present splendid fortune Follow
inc that firm came Kyger / Reese, who occu-
pied the little frame structure until they made
money enough to build brick on the opposite
corner. The property next passed into the
hands of Joe Helmuth, who occupied it for a
time. In 1868 Frank OrselE returned from the
kootenay country, where he had accumulated
which from that date he has occupied as a
grocery and provision store. Fires have blazed
all around this corner, and yet it passed through
them all unscathed, and how falls only because
it is in the way of the march of improvement
When the city was finally surveyed and laid
out this building was found to be in the line
OF Second street, and for years lis purchase or
condemnation by the city authorities has been
a subject of discussion At the last May term
of The District Court an application to condemn
the property was heard, when jury assessed
the damages to Frank Orselli at $4,000. The
city has paid over this sum and the building is
ROW being torn down, preparatory to opening
the street. At the time the old building was
put up there was no saw mills in the country,
and accordingly Frank Wolden had the lum-
Der brought from the Dalles, where it was cut
at the government saw mil. The old frame is
now bein pulled down, and with it disappears
one of the old familiar landmarks.

Republican Testimony to Re-
publican Rule.

The Hon. John Sherman, then a
United States Senator from the State
of Ohio and a visiting statesman to
Louisiana, on the 23d of November, 1876
wrote to Mr.. Hayes, now by corrupt
and villainous process Acting President
and then and now nobody, in reference
to occurrences in Louisiana
" II seems more like the history of hell
than ciruized and Christian con,Huai-
ties"
The Hon. Frank Morey, for six years
a Republican member of Congress from
Louisiana, testified before the Potter
Committee that 'd couple ofMousdnd
murders had been reported by q congress
sionM Committee in 1865, aohen the Re
publicans had control Of about t,co-
thirds Of the parishes. He did NOT
knoW Of q single conuictiOn for politi-
cal murder under the administration %
either Coz. Yarmouth or Kellogg."
Such was the condition of things when
Grant ruled Louisiana by Federal bayo-
nets. John Sherman says it reads like a
