The rush at c. b. Montague's on last
Saturday to get cheap goods ut the new
each store.was 20 great that a young
coentryman who had imbibed a little
too freely concluded that such a rush
was Intended for personal harm, and
in order to get out OF the way he crawl
ed under the sidewalk. After the rush
was over one OF the clerks found him
there in the ditch and marched him
out. Breathless and trembling In his
boots he said that he thought they were
going to rob him. His condition was
such that for safety he was quartered
by the polite city marshal and given
entertainment until morning. He set
tied his bin TO the generous recorder
and marched homeward, sadder bat
wiser man. The man was from q
neighb boring town where business Is
rather duh and was not used TO such 8
rush of trade.

MONTAGUES COLUMN.

Montague has the pleasure
Of announcing that his mann
moth stock is now being re.
plenished with new goods
weekly-his large and in
cfeasing sales requiring q cost-
stant supply of new goods,
His prices will be so low that
for self preservation close buy
ers who pay on the spot for
their purchases will necessa-
rily do their buying of him.
Montague keeps no old
stock When, as is the case
sometimes, any article is slow
of sale, that article is at once
marked down, regardless of
cost, and let go for anything
it viii bring. This method
insures us a nice fresh stock
at all times to select from.
When you want any goods
look through Montague's
mammoth stock, price his
goods and be convinced that
this establishment il up with
the times. And here in Leb-
anon you can get goods just
as low as you can in any town
in the State of Oregon.
1t Is to the interest Of every
person to patronize their
home merchants. The fact ia,
a town without merchants
would be a very singular one
in any country, and yet every
town is blessed CD with a few
people who always work
against their own and their
neighbors' interests by advo-
eating some other place as a
better one than their own TO
do their trading in. Lebanon
is not entirely exempt from
those who ought TO be loyal to
and work for the upbuilding
of their city, but who are un-
fortunately quite the reverse.
Much capital has already been
driven away from Lebanon by
this course, and many con-
templated enterprises that
would have enhanced values
in this vicinity have been
abandoned through the ma
lign influence Of chronic
cranks. Let us all work to-
gether for onr own homes and
our own people, and the day
is not distant when we Will
have a prosperous an inland
town as there is in this State.
Merchants here in every line
will sell you goods as low as
they can be sold anywhere.
They are always with you to
help to assist in every public
enterprise. Montague voices
the sentiment Of the mercan-
tile community of Lebanon
when he says that he will sell
you anything that you want
from his mammoth stock at
the lowest living rates. His
stock is a very large one, and
the goods must be sold. Drop
in and be convinced. There
is no good logic in building up
other cities at our own ex-
pense.
The farming community
understand their own interests
well, and they know that to
make their land valuable and
sought after by buyers a good
prosperous town in their
vicinity is just the thing to
attract newcomers, and they
almost universally patronize
their home towns. Our inter-
ests are identical. Let our
motto be, "Home against the
world"

SHE SAW HEAVEN.
The Remarkable Experience Of Mrs.
Charles Collins.

FRANKLIN, Pa, February Airs.
Charles Collins recently arrived at
Chapmanville with the remains of
her husband, who had died at Kin
sua. She attended the funeral and
Immediately afterwards was taken
dangerously i'll and apparently died.
Twelve bours after her supposed
death Mrs Collins showed signs of
animation. Two hours later she was
sitting up conversing with her
friends. She related a marvellous
experience. She said that her soul
had left the body during her coma
tose state and gone straight to
heaven. She saw the Savior, she
said, and the wonderful magnificence
of His surroundings were too won
derful to be expressed in words
"All that l have SEEN" said Mrs. Col
Inns, II can never reveal, but l know
that | was dead l know that |
went to heaven and my eyes beheld
the Glories of the Lord, Oh, why
didn't you let me alone? | don t
want to live here now, knowing what
unspeakable glories are up there
Mrs. Collins is 3S years of age and
of more than ordinary intelligence.
She told her remarkable story calmly
and earnestly, and honestly lamented
that she had returned to earth
again. Mrs. Collins is positive that
it was not a dream nor vision, but
that her soul was transported to
heaven.

SHE WASiREALLY DEAD.
Funeral Services Suddenly Stopped Be.
cause Of a Supposed Trance.

ERIE, January 31.-Edinboro has
been in state of excitement over
the supposed entranced condition of
a young lady, Miss julia Davis, who
died there last Saturday night. The
arrangements were made for the fun
eral and interment on Monday. The
life-like appearance of the corpse
was the subject of much comment,
and as the hour of the funeral APP
preached there was general prouest
against the interment, although the
physicians all agreed that life was
extinct and that death was the re-
suit of heart disease.
After the funeral sermon had been
preached the face of the corpse was
exposed. when there was so much
ocular evidence of life that it was de-
cided to stop the obsequies, and the
body was taken back to the young
lady's boarding house. When signs
of decomposition appeared after two
more days waiting the surgeons held
a post norton and ascertained for a
certointy that the girl was dead.

IMPORTANT BUSINESS.
The Senators Have Use for Railroad
Passes and Consequently Refuse
TO Give Them Up.

Syecial to Sunday Register.
CHARLESTON, Feb. 1.-The morn
ing session Of the3Senate did not dis
pose of much business, but what was
introduced and discussed was more
than usually important.
Only one bill was reported and
that was relating to licenses, return
ed without recommendation.
Mr., McAllister then introduced
bill No. "a, to fix the salary of as
SCISSORS. Mr.. Davis introduced bill
No S5, amending the charter of the
city of Grafton in the same pro.
visions as DR.. Thayer's bill in the
House.
Bill Ne Sc, introduced by Senator
Snider, was introduced by that gen
tleman as Of imperative Importance
1t provides for the establishment OF
an agricultural experiment station
in connection with the State Univer.
sity, and accepts national appro-
priation Of $4,000 for this purpose
Mr.. Snider declared that unless this
bill passed the present Legislature
the national grant would be lost
and asked that the rules be suspend
ed and the bill passed to a second
reading. The request was granted
by unanimous consent.
Senate Bill No. II, prohibiting
railroads from granting passes tc
members of the Legislature and
State officials, came up on its rejec
ton, and Senator Arbuckle, its pa
tron, made a strong appeal for favor
able consideration.
Senator Scott, of Ohio, always
champions railroads. passes and 9th
er evil things which iacerate the ten
der consciences of legislators. II,
replied To Mr. Arbuekle, and declar
ed that he was heartily opposed t.
the bill. Mr.. Scott was anxious
that Il railroad should make him any
improper offer Let one offer him it,
line, stock or anything else, he would
accept it in order to punish tn,
would-be bribers, and then vote al
his conscience dictated.
The remark Of the eloquent Obi
Dian seemed to strike sympathetic
chord in the hearts of several gentle
men, and by vote of IA to II they
decided not to give up theil
passes.
The hour of 10: 30 having arrived
the President and members of tn,
Senate wendell their way to thu
hall Of the House, and went int
Joint Assembly. Nothing was done
in the afternoon session but TO rea(
two bills, and order them to a secont
reading.

FOR PARTY FEALTY.
GREAT DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLE.
Forty Members Of the Party Hold Out
For the Caucus Nominee.
THE BOILERS STILL STUBBORN.

Special to Sunday Register
CHARLEsros, February 2.-Thc
vote of to-day shows no change in
the Senatorial situation unless it is
a more determined feeling upon the
part of the Democratic majority to
stand by the caucus nominee to the
last. The forty odd members who
have voted constantly for Senator
Kenna fully realize the position in
which they are placed by a factious
minority.
The fight is party fight for the
maintenance of party usages and
customs. A surrender at this point
would declare that the Democratic
caucus nomination is worthless, and
that the overwhelming choice of the
majority must be set aside at the
dictation OF one recalcitrant.
This is the sentiment. 1t is worthy
of the members who have voted for
Mr.. Kenna and whether they wage a
winning or losing fight they will
maintain their party feality and per-
sonal self respect.
Mr.. Dorr has not yet given any in
timation of an intention to comply
with the party will, and at this hour
there is less prospect that he will do
so than probably anytime during
the session. The vote to-day was
taken in a very few minutes and with
little formality.
Kenna received the Democratic
support with the exception of Messrs.
Dorr and Harr Harr and Kirk vot-
ed for Judge Henry Brannon. There
were five pairs. The vote stood
kenna, 80; Goff, IS; Hawver, 3;
Brannon, |. One ballot was taken
and the assembly dissolved,
Several Democratic members sign
ed a conference call this evening, but
majority did not agree, and the
conference was not held.

A Pointer for the .'Intelligen.
cer.3

We commend the following para
graph to the careful consideration
of our esteemed contemporary the
Wheeling Intelligencer. 1t is not
impossible that our neighbor may
vet be induced to admit the truth of
our remarks last week:
"Those Republicans who lay the
fattering JUNCTION to their souls that
the Democracy is dead, should turn
their eyes to West Virginia. The
State Senate there has just broken
long deadlock which brought out
Repubicanism in such bold relief
that at the municipal election in
Wheeling last Thursday the Demo
Gratis Won a signal victory, electing
their entire city ticket by maJorities
ranging from $40 to 1,349 in total
vote of $500. Two years ago the
Republicans carried five of the eight
wards; this year they carried only
two. The Republicans had control
of both branches of the council now
they are in the minority in each
branch and have only votes in 33
on joint ballot"

STABBED IN THE BACK.

Friendship.

CHARLESTON, W. VA, February A.
News of horrible murder, sup
posed to have been occasioned by
bad feeling engendered by the recent
crimes on the borders of Logan and
Lincoln counties, has just been re-
ceived. At the mouth of Pigeon
creek, on the Tug Fork of the Big
Sandy, in Logan county, John Chat
ers and one McNally met, and after
a wrangle Chafers proposed they lay
all past differences aside and be
friends. This McNally agreed to,
and tt c two men conversed for a
while. AS Chafers turned to walk
away, McNallv drew knife and
treacherously stabbed him in the
back, and as the wounded man fell,
NcNally sprang upon him and cut
his throat from ear to ear McNally

OATS SWINDLERS SENTENCED.
The Leader of the VenangO County
Gang sent to the Penitentiary.

FRANKLIN, Pa, Feb. 4.-The case
of Sebastian Wilson VS.. B. G. Brady,
William Crispen, w. j. Cowan,
Charles Keyes. A. p. Miles and John
Duncan, known to fame as the Coop
erstown Bohemian Oats Association,
was called for trial here yesterday.
The charge was conspiracy to de-
fraud. The case was given to the
jury at noon, and the jury returned
a verdict of guilty against all the
defendants. Judge Taylor sentenced
all except B. L. Brady to pay a fine
of $50 and costs. Brady was direct
ed to pay fine Of 500 and to I'M
dergo an Imprisonment in the West
ern Penitentiary of one year and six
months. Brady broke down com
pletely and wept like a child. This
ends the celebrated Bohemian oats
swindle, which has occupied the at
tention of every Criminal Court in
Venango county for two years.
