Two enterpris;ng liquor dealers in
Plttsburg, whose request for a re
newal of their license had been de-
MED, chartered boat, which they
anchored off the city, in the Allie
ghenY river, connecting it with the
shore by n floating wharf, and at
last advices they were doing a thriv-
ing business. An inspector who has
made an official report of the matter,
however, does not believe that the
fact of the boat being moved 20 or
so feet from low water mark eXemp.s
the proprietors from prosecution un-
der the state laws.

little band of stubbornly- lighting cavalrymen.
That stone, nearly hidden by the trees, marks
where fell Reynolds, the richest sacrifice made

tide of rebels until the rest of the army could

to show to their wives and children just where

From Salem to The Sea.

SALEM, Oct. 15.-At alspeclal ses-
sion of the board of trade tonight
the advisability of making an effort
to secure direct railroad connection
with the sea, via Astoria, was consid-
cred.
1t was stated to the board as the
intention of the Astoria Railroad
company to build from Astoria to Til
lamook via Clatsop beach. thence
through the low pass east of Tilla-
nook to the Grand Ronde country,
and thence to a junction with the
Oregon Pacific. 1t was suggested
that there exists a very good chance
to secure by proper effort the passage
of this road through Salem.
A committee of five. consisting oi
president Wright, secretary Manning,
T. McF. Patton, J. 81. Albert and r. J
Hendricks, was appointed to CORE
spond with the Astoria company and
ascertain what prospect there is ol
securing the road. II deemed expe
dent. the committee is empowered to
visit Astoria.

An Exclamation.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which SO many seem now to be af-
hicted? If you will remember q few
years ago the word Malaria was COM
paratively unknown,-to-day it is as
common as any word in the English
language, yet this word covers only
the meaning of another word used by
our forefathers in times past. So it
is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what
our grandfathers called Billiousness,
and all are caused by troubles that
arise from diseased condition of the
Liver which in performing its func-
tions finding it cannot dispose of the
bile through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it off through the
system, causing nervous troubles,
Malaria, Bilious Fever, etc. You
who are suffering can well appreciate
a cure. We recommend Green's Au-
gust Flower. Its cures are mar
velous.

A Juvenile Opera Company Row

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct. 15.-An un-
seemly row occurred last night at the
hotel where the Juvenile Opera COM
pany were stopping. Julia Martin,
one of the principal ladies, working
for Sc weekly, committed some slight
offense, and manager Eckert fined
her So, half the salary. The little
lady objected strenuously, and
was backed up by the balance of
the company, including Evan Gam
BILE, who used strong language toward
treasurer Hammill. The latter called
the boy liar. and Gamble retorted
by calling him a bigger liar. Ham
mill struck the boy in the face, and
Gamble hit him square between the
eyes, knocking him down. The treas.
urer arose and kicked Gamble, and
again kicked him on the floor, when
bystanders interfered.
Manager Eckert turned his atten.
ton to Gamble, and the latter in.
formed him that he would punch bis
Lead. The company then proceeded
to the steamer. It's understood that
three ladies and couple of boys will
leave the company, and as they are
the principals, this will likely cause
its dissolution.
