the run of salmon this week, says the
Astorian, but the fish are not up to the
usual size, averaging about fifteen cans to
the fish. The pack is considerably behind
that of the corresponding date last season,
but as two busy days in June Or July would
make difference of several thousand cases
it is too early to predicate anything in re-
lation to the outcome.
Every man must sleep according to his
temperament. Eight hours is the average.
If man requires little more or less, he
will find it out for himself Whoever by
work, pleasure, sorrow, or by any other
cause, is regularly diminishing his sleep, is
destroying his life. A man may hold out
for time, but nature keeps close accounts
and no man can deceive her.
Among the mining discoveries of last
year, probably not the least important was
that of what seems to be extensive beds of
mica in the mountains near Bear creek,
Potlatch country, says the Walla Walla
journal. The Woody mine has been most
worked and shows large amounts of mica
of good size and fine quality. The pro-
prietors have arranged to put on thirty men
at once. running them night and day in
| three eight-hour shifts. The other claims
have been hardly tested, but nearly all
promise well. The mineral shipped out
has brought an average of $3.50 per lb.
! Several Walla Wallans have interest in
| tn ese mica mines.
A correspondent writing from Lafayette
| to the McMinnville Reporter says, I have
| just heard that Robert Shook of West
Chehalem is missing since last Thursday.
1t seems that he went out in the morning,
| telling his boys that he would be back by
noon, and to have dinner ready for him,
| since which time he has not been seen. He
took nothing with him except, bottle of
something that the boys SUI pposed to be
liquor, but do not know what it was. Some
fear he has killed himself. They are max
ing strict search. The correspondent adds:
Since writing the above we have learned
further about the missing man, Shook.
w. D. Fenton received by mail to-day a
letter from Eugene, stating that man
named R. s. Shook had suicided at or near
place called Cresswell, fifteen miles from
Eugene, by taking an overdose of morphine.
Coroner Osborn of that county sent to Mr..
Fenton memorandum book found ON the
body of the deceased. On one Of the leaves
was written, ''Send this to my son, Walter
Shook, at West Chehalem." The book
contained two or three promissory notes.
all Cancelled, one of them by D. I. Corker,
of this place. Mr.. G. also recognizes the
book; SO there can be no mistake. The
coroner stated that the deceased had been
decently buried. Word was sent to his
children this afternoon. No one knows how
he got to Cresswell, or why he committed
! the deed.

EDITED BY THE w. c. T. o.
Press Department of the ". 6. r.u.

Our State superintendent has kindly
given us few lines regarding the press
work. At one of our recent meetings we
had Bible reading referring especially to
her work. One wouLl perhaps imagine it
rather secular subject to deduct Bible
reading from, but those present at the
meeting were greatly edited by the most
interesting and instructive lesson which our
State Supt. gave US, and it more than ever
proved to US that all our work was Gospel
work. that every department was rooted in
Christ. In regard to our local press work,
it is our humble endeavor to offer to the
public such thoughts as we believe to be
truths; such thoughts as we may gather
from reliable sources, which shall be o.
general interest and which will perhaps
'.arrest the thought" of some and make
them see more clearly their own duty, th'
demand of the age and to warn them tt
greater loyalty to God.

ANOTHER CASE OF ABDUCTION.


 Father FOrcIBIy Takes His Two Children From Their MOther-The Mother Successfully Pursues-The Parties Locked 'Up-L1veIy Tilt Among The Lawyers.
 A second edition of the Dr. Toof affair oc- cured in Fair Haven last evening. Wavis Genung formerly lived with his wife in the vicinity of Ferry street, Fair Haven. The pair quarrelled and he at last left his wife and went to Litchfeld where he obtained @ situation as clerk in a drug store. Genung came back awhile after and wanted the two
 children. Mrs. Genung refused, but agreed to let her husband have the oldest, she to re- tain the youngest. They differed over this, but partially agreed to divide the furniture, she to keep the young est child. Yesterday afternoon about 6 o'clock Genung went to get his share of the furniture. taking Edgar A. Burdick with him to ostensibly help remove it. While packing the furniture Genung grabbed one child and Burdick the other, and rushing out jumped into hack and drove. Mr. Bogart, who lives up stairs, jumped on to the back part of the hack, while Mrs. Genung jumped into grocery team near by and followed rapidly after. The parties in the hack drove to the Derby depot where MT. Bogart made com plaint to an officer and the parties were taken to the station house with the children, Mrs. Genung fol- lowing. Complaint against Genung and Bur dick was made for breach of the peace. At
 Genung's request Lawyer Talcott and Pro lessor Townsend were sent for, and T. B. Doolittle was sent for by Mrs. Genung.
 There was red hot time at the police sta tion between the lawyers for short time, which ended by MT. Doolittle telling the &D HoIyo
 him. She was about to do so, when the father said he did not want the children separated and finally the mother took them both.
 Professor Townsend then gave bonds for both
 men on charges of breach of the peace and
 they were released. MT. Doolittle afterwards filed 8 complaint against Genung for taking
 away child from it's mother under twelve years of age, to wit, of the age of four years, which will be served to-day. It is very evi- dent that the question as to the right of the father to the youngest child will now have to be settled by the courts.

 Haven last evening by one of the grandest ] ovations ever rendered to any favorite at the l American Theater, and the applause wher l he made his bow was tremendous and long ] drawn out. In the first part he had to sing again and again, and the warmth of his re- ception almost equalled that given to the gen. ial manager when he made his bow three weeks ago. The Peasleys received a hearty welcome and were applauded for their act The Four Continentals did some surprising aerobatic dancing and received several hearty encores. Coleman and Thomas Sam Der nard, Robinson, the man of mystery, and Mile Bessie in their necromancy, and Miss Etta Bartlett in her vocal selections were all worthy of the applause they received. The funny afterpiece Senator Kroushorn" pro- voked roars of laughter from the large audi ence, and especially the ladies who were present in force. The American is getting to be favorite resort with them. The prices of admission are now fixed at ten and twenty cents, and it is surprising that so good show can be given for so small a price.
