take pleasure in announcing that have
received a very large stock of new goods in
every department, carefully selected to suit
this market, in regard to quality and price,
and of the most popular styles, which in
tend 10 sell with the usual small percentage,
being convinced by the fast sales of the past
season that such course is by fur the most
satisfactory on all sides. Iwould draw the
attention Of the public to my superior stock
of hosiery, which is sold below anything ever
bought before. My line IN ginghams surpass
in style, quality and price any former grade
of goods of the kind. and always make lib
eral reductions on remnants.

The Clackamas county horse thieves
were overtaken Sunday about six
miles above Salem by the deputy
sheriffs who have been in pursuit Of
them ever since their first depreda-
lions. The thieves were two in num-
Der, and after most desperate fight
both were killed. Two other horse
thieves also made fight few days
since near the Oregon and California
line, one being killed and the other
fatally wounded. The horse thieves
are faring very badly on this coast
this season, and many of them have
already passed in their checks.

BY the consolidation of various In
dian Agencies in this Territory, Capt.
Chas. Willoughby, agent of Neah
Bay, Gen. r. H. MiIroy, agent of
Nesqually, Puyallip, Squadron and
Chehalis, and John O'Keane, agent
of Tualip and other reservations are
displaced. Agent Edwin Eells now
has charge of all the Indians about the
upper sound, and Oliver E. Wood, of
Quinealt, those along the coast, and
at Neah Bay. The displacement of
Capt. Willoughby and Gen. Milroy is
very much to be regretted, and no
cause can possibly be assigned for it,
except on the score of economy. Mr..
O'Keane's time was about out, and he
did not expect rs-appoinement. Capt.
Willoughby has been agent at Neah
Bay for four years, and was very re-
Gently re-appointed. After his second
appointment he laid out'every cent he
had been able to lay up out Of his SAL
ary, in getting himself and family
comfortable for the next four years
and now he steps down and out with
out q dollar. Gen. Milroy Is an old
Union General, who fought faithfully
aud well for his hour Of peril. He is
an honest, faithful, well-meaning
man, and deserved better treatment
from those In high places. Seattle In

The Ransom Acquittal.

The indignation Of the people Of FL Paso
over the acqulttal at Lacon, two weeks ago, of
Porter c. Ransom tried for the murder of
Henry w. Bullock, found vent on Saturday in
a public meeting attended by 600 people, IN
GLIDING all the clergymen of the place and
over 200 ladies' A report of the meeting in
the Peoria Democrat says:
The meeting was called to order by ex. May.
Tor 5. L. Roger, and DIR. f. Cole was chosen
Ell PasO bank, was made secretary. A commit
tee Of five was appointed on resolutions, and
after fifteen minutes consultation reported a
long preamble and resolutions which were
received by the meeting with enthusiasm and
unanimously adopted. The killing Of Bullock
was declared a deliberate and cold -blooded
murder The conduct OF the attorneys for the
defense in abusing and villifying the witness
es for the people was pronounced infamous.
A letter to Chicago paper after the trial in
favor OF the defendant IN which the prosecu-
ton and the people of Woodford county were
severely criticised, was bitterly denounced
Judge Burns is censured for permitting the
defendants counsel to engage in vituperaton,
fo- his astonishing and ore-sided Instructions
to the jury, and for his manifest leaning to
the defense, thereby rendering the trial srav.
esty upon justice. Lynch law IS declared an
improvement upon Judge Burns and a Mar
shall county jury. 1t is maintained that the
people were shamefuly AMI wantonly out
ragged, public justice defeated, and an under
haIfded murderer turned loose IN the commu-
nifty,
A separate resolution, declaring Judge

The Temgrkable sagacIty Of the weasel was
well illustrated the other day by an incident
which actually occurred IN the suburbs Of
Santa Barbara.
gcntloman's barn WAS infested with rats,
and he was greatly annoyed with their depre-
datiuus. They have been gradually dlsap.
pearinr, however, during the last few weeks.
The gentleman finally discovered the cause OF
their disappearance in very wide.awake
weasel, watch was engaged at the time in 4
vigorous combat with an unusually large
sized rat. The latter proved too much for HIS
adversary, and finally chased his weaselship
out Of the barn.
A few mornings later the gentleman again
found the same ANIMALS engaged III similar
battle. The weasel ut last ran INTO q hole it
had burrOwed through a pile of hardened com
post. THIS hole was quite large at the en-.
trance, but the outlet was scarcely large enough
to admit the passage OF the weasels body. The
weasel darted into the hole, with the rat at his
heels. \ moment later the weasel emerged
fiom the other side and ran quickly around
the compost pile, and again entered the hole
this time IN his CnGmy's rear.
The gentleman, interested in the proceed
ings, watched The place some time, and found
that only The weasel came out Digging into
the compost he found the rat quite dead and
partly eaten. The weasel had arranged his
trap so that the rat could enter but becoming
closely wedged in the narrow portion of the
hole, could be attacked at disadvantage and
easily ltilled.--Sabta B0rjdr0 Press.

The Man With u Memory.

Matthew's Literary Style)
Who has not met with encyclopedias on
legs, packed full OF learning on great variety
OF subjects, but learning unasslmllated, with.
out method or system and made up of lnforma.
ton the most trivial as well as the most valua-
bic? Who has not listened with sad civility'
to more than one person like the Count of
COlgny described by Talleyrand, "who pos.
sesses wit and talent, but his conversation is
iatigueing, because his memory is equally eX
act IN quoting the date of the death OF Alex
ander the Great and that OF he Princess dc
Guemenees's pOOdle?"
Lord Bolingbroke has gwen vivid picture
of IA scholar of his acquaintance who was an
omnlvorous reader, and joined II prodigous
memory of this kind to u prodlgious industry.
"lle had read almost constantly" says BO-
lingbroke, twelve or fourteen hours day, for
five andtw,nty or thirty years and had heaped
together as much learning as could be crowd
ed into one head. In the course of my nc
quaintance with him | consulted him once or
twice, not ofiener for ] found this mass of
learning of as little use to me rs to the owner.
The man was communicative enough but
nothing was distinct III his mind. How could
1t be otherwise? He had never spared time
TO think, all was employed in reading. His
reason had not the merit of common me.
