j. G. Megler returned from Walla
Walla Tuesday, says the Albany
DAILY Herald, and is now hard at
work at his eannery. Mr. Megler says
the run of salmon during the past few
days has been the best on record for
this locality. The only kick he has
coming is that there are too many
fish i'll this world. Present prices are
low, and as long as the market remains
overstocked there can be no hope
for Improvements.

DIR. Terc, of Vienna, has discovered
a cure for rheumatism in bee stings.
Having fonnd that every stinging is
followed by a swelling up to a point
when the body seems to have become
hardened against further effect, he
tried the singing on rheumatic pa
tient. Upon saturating the patients
system with the bee poison the rheum-
atism disappeared. Guess there must
be something in that, for it has been
often observed that there is nothing
rheumatic in the movements of a per-
son lately stung by bee.

The receipts of salmon at San Fran
cisco for the season are 1865 cases.
This is of course exclusive of the
10000 cases Df the wrecked Wild
1COOd, and the 1880 cases OF tbs
steamer AncOn, which makes 1890
cases regarding which there is an un-
certainty of their ever reaching the
market. The loss on the Alaska pack
for this season says the cal is esti-
mated by competent experts to ha at
least 60 per cent. They think that if
the pack foots up 100000 cases for
the year their expectations will be
more than realized. Later reports
placs the Alaska pack at 371,OOO
cases.

After Joe Holiday escaped from
sheriff LOunsbury who had taken
him from this city to Portland he WAS
next heard of in Vancouver, whtre lie
was arrested and held under $1,000
cash bail which he furnished to ap-
pear in court in Portland to-day. 1t is
said that Holiday intimated to a
friend, after being placed under ar
rest, that he would give the officers
considerable trouble yet before he
would be landed in Portland. 1t is
taken from this remark says the Ore
goniGg that Joe intends to forfeit
his bail and make for Brit.
ish Columbia. If the officers let him
reach Victoria they will have a great
deal of trouble in getting him back to
Oregon. 1t is thought that Holla-
days mind, which has never been any
too strong, is overbalanced by the last
move taken in the matter of handling
the estate, and some fear that if he
sees all avenues closed of escaping be-
ing punished for contempt of court he
may attempt self destruction. 1t is
hardly likely that he will attempt to
do away with himself, as he values his
life too dearly.
