OLD P1oNEER.-Judge Catheart, one
of the Oldest pioneers of Douglas coun.
ty. was in the city Tuesday. He was
born in Burks county, North Carolina,
on the 26th day of August, 1897, and
is in the Seth year of his age. Not
withstanding his great age, he retains
perfect control of his mental faculties
and is pleasant and interesting con-
versationalist. He has lived in this
and adjoining counties nearly thirty
years, and at one time served the peo-
pie Of Douglas as County Judge. His
political opponents as well as his
friends admit that in his official capac-
ity he was both honest and capable.
The old man has been blind for about
two years, but bears his misfortune
with resignation. He isstepping with
relatives and friends in Coles valley.
and manages to keep himself posted in
the current news of the day, and in
conversation shows mind well stored
with useful information. Many of the
old pioneers have passed away, whilst
he remains, as it were, a monument of
the advance guard of civilization in
this section of Oregon. May his stay
be long and pleasant.

EXPORTING WooLEN Goops.-1he
Ashland Tidings says: The Ashland
Woolen Mills probably turn out more
goods than ony other wooden factory
OF the same nominal capacity in the
United States. Every resource of the
mills is taxed constantly to keep the
output up to the highest possible
quantity. Every week large shipments
of goods are made to the San Francisco
and Portland markets. Blankets,
fannels, shawls and socks are products
in which for quality and finish these
mills hold the first position in the mar
kets of the Pacific coast.

is expected will be ready to launch

2O8 feet long, "a feet beam, with three
masts, and will have CARRYING capac-
ity Of 800 tons. She is staunchly
built as her timoers have all been Sc
lected with the greatest care and put
together with galvanized iron and To-
Gust fastenings. She will also have an
engine for loading and unloading
Barring the iron, locust and rigging,
all the material used in her construc-
tion is the product of Douglas county. |
Gardiner is well provided with

PETERsoN's MAGAz1NE.-The premi
um engraving for Peterson's Magazine
for 1883, beyond all question, is the
most valuable ever issued. It is a
copy, in line and stipple, of the extra
ordinary painting by the great Hunga
rian artist, Muncaksy, "Christ Before
Plate" which is creating such sensa-
ton in Europe, sixty thousand persons
having visited it when on exhibition
at Vienna and as many at Prague.
The picture is SO real that the specta-
tor seems to be actually present. The
prominent object is the patient, forgiv-
Jog, div inc face of Christ. Then there
is Plate, with his puzzled, hesitating
air; the angry hate, the scowling
brows Of the High Priests and scrlbes;
the wild, almost insane rage of some Of
the crowd; and more than all, the un-
speakable pathos in the countenance of
the pitying young mother, who, with
her babe in her arms, stands looking on
from one corner Never before was
that ever memorable scene SO vividls
conceived, much less 80 successfully
and powerfully depicted. The picture
should be had in every family. 1t can
be had, gratis, by getting up club for
Peterson. Only the enormous circu-
lation Of the magazine can explain why
the proprietors can afford to give such
premiums. Peterson is the best and |
cheapest of the lady's books, the price
being but two dollars a year, with
great deductions to clubs. Specimens
OF the magazine, to assist in getting up
clubs, are sent gratis, if written for.
