sOuse-Breakins and ThIevIng.


On Friday or Saturday of last week while
Mrs. Jno. Irving was absent from home only
a few moments, some one entered the dwell
ing and stole whole set of silver napkin.
rings. A Chinaman was seen in that locali-
ty about the same time, and it is thought
that he was the thief.
Still another case of the same character
happened on Sabbath evening at Mr.. Mans
fields. Mr.. II. and his daughters had gone
to attend B-onaugh's lecture, and his wife
and VIII had retired, leaving the doors uH-
locked, when some man entered the front
door and passed into the sitting room. Mrs.
N. saw him from her bedroom and at once
locked her door and commenced calling for
assistance. Before any one arrived the thief
passed on through the house and out at the
back door, stealing on his way SL5o from
old Grandfather Pollard, and also taking two
OF three loaxes of bread.
The next ease that we have heard Of oc-
Cured at the Revere House on Tuesday af-
tenOon or evening. Henry Schlucter works
at Fosters Touring mills from noon until
midnight and boards at the above hotel, and
while he was on duty last Tuesday some one
entered his room and stole clothing to the
amount of over $780, No clew has been OBJ
tanned to the perpetratOr Of the crime. No
blame can be attached to the proprietOrs, as
their house is public and parties are visiting
rooms In their building at all hours.
When such cases as these are of almost
nightly occurrence eur people viii do well to
provide themselves with fre-arme, and be
ready to give warm reception to all such
callers.

sehoaer, the szarion Bounty Kaeon ThIef,
Arrested ever on soap Greek.


Schoffer, ths man who was tried in the
Circuit Court for this county about year
ago for stealing wheat from w. K. Price
near this city and then bringing it here to
Albany and selling it, is again in the clutches
Of the law. After leaving here he changed
his name to Wilson and went down into Ma
ZION county, and during last September stole
9, 900 lbs Of bacon near Salem and marketed
it about after the same manner that he dis
posed of the wheat up here. After selling
the bacon he decampsd and 0ficer Minto, of
Salem, has been on the hunt for him ever
since. He went over to PrineViIIe, down to
Astoria, and over on the Sound, but still he
couldn't get on the trail Of his pork-loving
friend, but when he returned he learned that
Schofer had been living quietly over in Ben
ton county all the time under the as
sumed name Of Rocks. A warrant was sent
up and J. R. Herren went ever to Mr..
COwan's, on the Corvallis road, last Monday
and arrested the man and brought him to
this city. Mimic came up on the evening
express, and went back in the morning with
his prisoner.

DON'T FORGET In.

If you are troubled with nervousness, are
disheartened, tired of life, fear death or
feel out Of sorts as the saying is, you may
safely conclude that you have the Dispep-
sia or Liver Complaint. The liver is very
apt to become torpid this season of the
year as poisons arising from stagnant wa
ter or decaying vegetation ara more numer-
ous and are through inhalation taken into
the blood. Unless the liver is strong and
active, and furnishes supply of fresh and
pure blood to drive out the impurities,
the above mentioned symptoms surely fol
low, and if not needed, end in more terri
Bile diseases and death. Whites Prairie
Flower proves itself the Great Liver Pana-
cea. It's action on the liver is different
from any medicine ever compounded. It's
cures are truly wonderful. Try it. Price

Chemistry never achieved more decid-
ed triumph than in the production Of
SOZ0DONT, which is botanical prepara-
ton Of wondrous efficacy in preserving
and beantifying tho teeth, rescuing them
from decay, and rendering them as white
as alabaster. 1t is a toilet luxury Of which
all should avail themselves. The unpleas-
