An EventfuI Expedition.

Two Harry's and Fred helped them
selves to a boat belonging to VIM. Shields
one day last week, and, with big army re-
volyer in their possession, sailed down the
raging waters of the Willamette until they
reached Independence, which they did in
safety after several hair breadths escapes
from Indians, boa constructors and grizzly
bears along the way. They commanded
the citizens to surrender without restrictions
and were about to storm the fort when a
posse Of men armed to the teeth, after des-
perate and bloody struggle, succeeded in
arresting them, the immediate charge being
arceny of boat, dispatch having been
sent from this city to capture the runaway
boys. Being somewhat subdued, further
tumult was caused in the boys camp by the
pretended arrest of one Of them for carrying
concealed weapons. They were sent home
on a big river steamer, and have since been
restored to citizenship.

Street Railway.

AT a special meeting Of the Council held
on Friday evening last, the Street Rail way
ordinance, after amendment, was unani-
mously passed. The company has opened
its books and stock is being taken. If there
areany who think this project is simply on
paper they will soon find themselves mis-
taken. Business is meant. Running along
First Street from end to end, distance of
fifteen blocks, and from First Street to the
depot, nearly ten blocks, it viii prove a con-
venience ofsuficient magnitude to command
considerable business. Besides II will be the
means of doing away with hotel busses, the
hotels presenting their guests with tickets,
which will be quite an item towards its sue
cess. AS a permanent institution for the
city with the best prospects in the Valley, it
IS one eur citizens should support with their
encouragement and pocket book.

Another Fine Horse.

Nothing pleases the DEMOCRAT more
than every addition to the blooded stock of
Linn county. 1t means much for the flu
ture. Blood will tell every time. Last
week Bruce Mcknight and Fred Blumberg,
Of this city,purchased of Jay Beach his trot-
ting stallion Altago, as fine a horse as was
ever imported to this county. With Alta
mont as his sire, and Maggie Arnold,with
record of 2:35, as his dam, he has a pedigree
equal to any Oregon horse. Altago was
entered in the State fair races last year and
made three year record of ? 2-47, one second
slower than the record for the Northwest,
and without sufficient training. He was
afterwards trotied in several special races,
winning, we believe, all Of them. He will
stand during the coming season in Linn
county, for particulars of which watch the
columns of the DEMOCRAT next week.
