week contains the following:
Mr.. A. P. Gaines, son of Gov. John P.
Gaines, recently received through the hand
Of the Secretary of the State at Washington
and the Brazilian Minister, a communica-
zion and photograph of tombstone from
the island of St. Catharines, off the coast OF
South America and province of Brazil. 1t
appears some English engineers were en-
gagged in surveying for railroad across the
island and came across the graves of Gov.
Gaines two daughters who died of yellow
fever.on the voyage to Oregon in 1850, and
were buried on that island. and had the
graves put in repair and photographed and a
description sent to any relatives in this
state. In this manner this. photograph
and letter found their way to Mr.. Gaines,
at Scio.
The photograph shows the following in
-acription onsthe tombstone:
sacred to the memory Of the Daughters
of Governor Gaines, of Oregon, who died Of
Yellow fever at st. Catharines, while on
their way to Oregon in the U. s. Store ship
Supply in 1850.
Ground cleared up an re-enclosed by tks
u. s. Steamers Metacomet and Powhatan,
in lS59-lS60.
Tombs repaired and ground cleared by
English residents in Desterro, Santa Cath.
.arina, 1855.
The letter accompanying the photograph
was signed by A. B. Alexander, chief engi-
neer of surveyors on railroad work on the
Island.

Fruit Raisers Attention.

The Economy fruit drier at Woodcock
Il Baldwin's, Corvallis, Or, utilizes the heat
on common cooking stove, which enables
she drier to work successfully during the
time when meals are being prepared for the
family on the same stove, thus enabling the
operator to dry rapidly and with no ex-
pense. 1t will dry four or five bushels OF
apples per day and other fruits and vegeta-
hles in proportion. Every family should
have one in order to save without expense
the fruit which goes to waste, thus making
clear gain of all dried The price is a
mere nothing and within the reach of all.
Only twenty dollars for machine complete
and will do as good work as any of the
high priced machines which cost ten times
as much.

Yaquiaa LAY oysters are somewhat larger
than those from Shoalwater bay, and are
pronounced more palatable. Some eastern
oysters have been transplanted on the bay,
but it seems they are not thriving very
well. The CLANS are also Of first class quail
ty and excel the Puget sound production.
Numerous other kinds of fish also abound,
but as yet the business is not followed to
any great extent. All the oyster claims on
the bay are taken up and viii be opperated
this fall. This fishermen of the bay will
try ami find market in Portland for their
Hroduction. \ splendid market really
exists here which YaIuina bay can secure
by slight exertion.

Dneco.

This noted horse, owned by McKing hit
Bro. 8 of Albany, was started in all the
principal three year old races in Oregon in
1854, winning three out of four, and maxim g
record of 2:4l, which stands at the head
of all three year old records on the North
Pacific Coast, and trotting fifth heat in
the remarkable time of 2:44, the last half in
l:l7, 2:34 gait. Last Saturday he was
shipped frora this place to Washington
county, where he will be trained, and from
there taken to California and entered in
the principal races in that state for this
season. Oneco is an Oregon raised horse.
We expect to hear more of him in the fu-
nre.

Gore to the Wilde rnesS.

Ex-county surveyor McQumn left by the
west side train last evening for McMinnville
to join party under the charge of J. D.
Fenton, who has a contract for surveying
the boundaries of the Siletz Indian Reserva-
tion, says the Oreyonian of Tuesday. There
are about 800 square miles in this reserva-
ton, but the limits have never been marked.
Mr.. Fenton's party will start in at the
southwest corner of the reserv alton, just
north of Cape Foulweather, and 60 around
the reservation. They will probably be
about month iu completing the work, and
as they will be i'll the widest wilds of the
farthcst West, they will probably have the
finest hunting and fishing i'll the world.

Swamp Lands.

The people of Grant and klamath counties
will be much interested in a recent dscision
by Secretary Lamar in a swamp land case
from California; it oug hit to strike terror to
the souls of the swamp land fiends of Oregon,
says an exchange. After setting out the
facts and citing the statutes on the subject,
the secretary says: GA careful consideration
of all the evidence shows that the said tract
is subject to periodical everfows in the win
ter or spring months, but the overflow sub
sides so as not to render the land unfit for
cultivation by reason of the overflow. The
land, therefore, lis not swamp and overflowed
land within the meaning of the swamp land
act, and the claim of the state must be re
jected" This decision will cause to revert
to the public domain nine tenths of wha
has been gobbled in this state under tn,
swamp land act.

so carelessly threaten to deliver wood a tter
harvest are always prevented from filing
their engagements by the early rains and
their fall work. Another very important t
thing for those who deliver wood is to come
to the Office before unloading the same and
learn where it should be unloaded, and after
it is nicely corded, come again to the office

1t is learned from Mr.. Charles Camp,
who arrived in the city yesterday from
Goshen's Hole, that cattle are in excellent
condition in that region. All native cat
tie are in excellent condition in that re-
gion. All native cattle are doing well, and
only a few Texas pilgrims have died. The
reports of the loss of Texas cattle, as pub
lished in Eastern papers, have been ex-
aggerated, for only a very small loss has
been sustained even among those cattle
least prepared to endure the rigors of a
Northern winter. Reports from other
portions of the ranges are to the effect
that the warm weather of the past few
days has melted the snow on the noun
tains. Horse creek and the Chugwater
are said to be full to their banks and the
water is spreading to the adjacent low
lands.

His Bonds Furnished for Assault but he
is Again Arrested.

|
Some days ago a young man who gave
his name as Bull Whacker Bill, but
who subsequently said his name was w.
II. Kutchenthall, was arrested for max
ing al assault on a man named Fowler.
After his arrest it was suspected that he
was a participant in the outrage at
Schwartze's ranch, and hence it was de-
sired to hold him until he could be inden-
tilted. He assaulted Fowler with a knife
and was bound over to the district court,
his bonds being placed at $500.
Yesterday Mr.. Henry Sanders came in
from his ranch and as Bill isa cousin of
his he signed the bonds. Immediately
after Bills release he was ~rearrested as a
participant in the Schwartze affair. In
this case he was arrested as Bill McQuary
dtias Bill Barber. When the reward Of
$3.50 was offered for the arrest of the
men who were guilty Of the riot at
Schwartze's ranch, the following descrip-
ton was given Of Bill Barber:
Bill hlcQuaryi alas Bill Barber, q
COW boy, is between 80 and IS years Of
age, about five feet seven inches high, and
weighs about 40 pounds; is of a light
complexion and wore a light moustache
and goatee. He belonged to the
90 outfit, near Antelope Springs,
Albany county,
Kutchenthall is under p years of age,
and is not held on the description, but on
account of his identification by a man who
was at the ranch at the time. Mr., San
ders again offered to go his bonds, but on
account of some technicality regarding
Sanders residence, the bonds were re-
fused. The matter will probably be
brought before Justice Lacey to-day. Bill
is still in jail.

do You Know Him :

There was a man in u town and he
was wondrous wise, for when he marked
his prices down, he then did advertise.
And when he saw his trade increase,
with all his might and main, he marked
still lower every price and advertised
again.
And when lie advertised again, his
rivals stamped and swore, to see folks
rush with might and main to patronize
that store.
And while they sat in solitude and saw
him custom bring, that man behind the
counter stood and raked the shekelsl in.
And when he raked the shekels in,
and saw his fortune rising, he took a
goodIy lot of tin and kept on adver-
Using.
Each day a genuine sum he'd seek,
and demonstrate full plain, the more one
pays for printers ink, the greater is his
gain
