drinking dog. The animal Is as fond Of
beer as any man. and will indulge In 1t
to intoIication whenever he gets tho
chance. He Tapped up o glass Of beer
yesterday In the presence Of several Wis.
itors at the brewery. The dog has been
in the brewery about . year. and was
raised in Sacramento. He was fond Of
beer before he was brought to Crystal
Peak. Beer produces upon him very
much the same effect that II does upon
q man. When he 10 full. the dog Is ir.
ritsble and disposed to resent any teas.
ing. Usually, when in his cups, he will
60 into retirement, and sleep Of the Of.
fects OF his rotations. After q dsbauch
he exhibits symptoms OF headache and
will rub his head against his masters
knee. When "bracing up" he delights
to have his head rubbed. A few weeks
ago the dog followed his master to Boca.
The long run over . dusty road made
the animal very dry. and when they
reached the Boca brewery he drank six
glasses two quarts) Of beer In rapid
succession before his thirst was salts
fed. He likes beer with plenty Of
isteam," sometimes refusing that which

Railroad Building in Oregon.

PORTLAND. August 3l.-ysry favora-
BILE progress is reported or the construc-
ton Of the narrow gauge railway in the
Willamette Valley. Grading from Bays
Landing to Silvsrton. a distance Of over
twenty-three miles, has been completed,
and the hands are now grading on the
Silverton and Brownsville line. Over
1900 men, including Cinnamon. are at
work. and grading is being crowded In
order that the line may be finished in
season to carry away the present harvest
OF wheat. Over five miles Of iron has
been laid from Hays Landing and more
is being put down at the rate OF half Q
mile per day. The only drawback at
present is the bridges aud trestle.work,
which cannot be completed as fast %
the remainder Of the road, owing to the
scarcity OF timber. Six saw mills are
kept busy at work. but still they are un-
able to supply the demand. Grading
has been finished to q point fifteen miles
south OF Silvsrton and Ave miles north
OF Brownsville. aud IL the weather per-
mits. the two grading parties will meet
about tho middle OF October.

GRANT ON STOCKS AND MISEs.

Although the telegraph has stated that
General Grant has accepted the appoint
msnt as President OF q company owning
immense mining and land interests
down in New Mexico. IL is not altogether
o fixed fact that he has committed him
self to the arrangement. On the contrary
latest kilograms say that he has positively
refused the profisred honor. The oompa-
ny seems to have been willing enough to
take advantage OF the prestige which his
assumption OF the leading management
would bring. but Grant himself had not
considered and studied into the subject
sufficiently to render a prompt decision as
to what he would do in the matter. He
does not propose to be made use Of, or to
lend himself or his influence and indorse-
ment to any stock-jobbipg or swindling
arrangement in that line. IL he knows it.
Recently while in Denver q reporter OF q
local paper in~terviewipsly remarked to
him. That's a good thing you have
down in New Mexico" "well." re-
spopded the General. 81 didn't know
I had anything down there except what
/ read in the newspapers. have been
elected President OF the company. but /
haven't accepted the position" Mayor
Sopris. who was sitting by. observed
that it was q dangerous thing for him
(the GENERALLY to touch |; because"
said he, "they will in oil probability
aoat their stock. and there Is a big chance
for fraud" "oh - said General Grant,
iii they propose to place their stock on
sale I don't care to have anything to do
with IT," "Then you have not laid out
O plan for yourself in the near future ?"
"No. I am not decided on that head"

New York Tribune: Wade Hampton's
''broad and d~own-rsachipg for the
Union " began as far back as 1868. On
June IS Of that year he made . speech
at a supper OF the Alumni Of Washing.
ton College, Virginia, when. abiding to
martyred dead" he said he did
not believe they fell in vain. "The
cause for which Jackson and Stuart fell
cannot be in vain. but will in some form
revive" He could not couple Lee with
Jackson then because Lee was alive.
and was present at the supper. The
sentiment is c~uriously like the n he
uttered at Staunton. and 1t may be that
he regards the present campaign under
Hancock rs the revival I" he predicted

A NEW HORROR.
Fresh Terror In she
shape or Disease.


A new disease has made its appear
ance In San Francisco. 1t was brought
in ON . ship from Csylon. It is called
'.bsri-bsri'' and twenty-ons OF the crew
ars at the United States Marine Hospital.
OF the patients the Chronicle says:
The men are all we'll developed and
look we'll enough; 1t Is only on ap-
preaching them and scanning them
closely that anything out Of the ordinary
can be detected. Their gait Is trembling
and in some cases they totter along.
The expression OF the face. however. Is
the surest indie ton that a mysterious
disease has bound them in its poison
Gus grasp. Their swarthy. intelligent
faces bear upon them the stamp OF
an almost psthsthic pleading for
help. The flesh is in nowise dis
colored, nor is there any other
sign Of disease save the very anxious
expression OF countenance. They follow
tn. Doctors directions with an almost
despairing devotion. and since two OF
their fellows have died they have been
more cast down. and their expressions
OF countenancs have taken on q still
deeper hue OF distress. They enjoy
their meals. eating heartily OF the food
provided for them. suffer little pain. and
have their full power Of mind. They
are very weak. however. and cannot
bear any fatigue. The four cases that
are more seriously affected seem to have
almost lost the will to move. They lilo
on their beds staring at those who come
near them. yet are too weak to talk or
move. None Of the men show any sign
Of e~maciation. nor does any part OF the
body betray. by mark or appearance the
presence Of disease.
The Cal says: The dread disease
makes its advances In an insidious man
nsr. without any premonitory warning.
At FIRST an ennui or listlessness is FOL.
lowed by o dropsicsl swelling. The
connective tissue binding together the
muscular fbres OF the heart become
loaded with fluid. Tho cavity sur
rounding the lungs likewise becomes
surcharged with water. producing a diff.
fcult breathing. even tho v~esicles Of
the brain containing an increased
amount Of fluid. which is effused over
the surface. The body becomes bloaied
as in dropsy. the abdomen assuming
immense proportions. The victim Of this
horrible disease. while presenting IN I'M
usual swelling. gradually loses power
over his lower limbs. the breath comes
in quick. short laboring puts. while q
crushing weight is borne upon the
brain, and the blood becomes thick,
stsgnant and sopy.
