THE case OF DR.. Rylance, rector Of st.
Marks Church. New York, has at last
come to the courts under bill Of par.
ticulars filed by members Of the church
vestry. The gay rector is accused Of
making an offer totake one woman abroad
and support her in luxury upon certain
eDnditiors He is accused of being
s'offensive" in his attentions to q very
pretty girl Of his congregation
and in the course of beseeching her TO
supply the place Of an affinity to
him, to have seized her BY the
ankle. There are other charges equally
grave sgainst the doctor, which prove
that he is either crazy or criminal. In
either case it is right that he should be
exposed. It is not just to the community
or to the noble and honorable men who
compose the Episcopal clergy that such 8
case should be suppressed. DR.. Rylanct

MeMrNNvILLE TALKS RAILROAD.
Yamhilrs Capital Wants Railroad to the
Sea

The McMinnYille Register is enthu-
siastic when it talks of the coming
railroad to the sea, and advises the
citizens to wake up, and not only work
their jaws but get down to hard work
and raise subsidy for the Salem,
Astoria and Eastern railroad. 1t says
the building of this road will guaran-
tee SIX cents per bushel more to the
farmers in that vicinity, and prophe-
sizes that manufacturing city of 10000
inhabitants will stand on the present
site of McMinnville within five years,
il the road is built.
In speaking of the mass meeting
and proposed route, the Register says:
THE three passes through the noun
tains west OF the city were discussed,
and the Salem delegation expressed
themselves that McMinnville was the
desired point; provided, however, that
McMinnville will hold out helping
hand to Salem. The passes west OF
us have a higher altitude than the
Grand Ronde pass, and if McMiun-
vile can put up sufficient coin to over
come the weight of an easy pass the
road will be built; but, on the other
hand, if she does not, the road will
not be built, and McMinnville will
lose one of the greatest benefits ever
brought to her attention, and rightly
lose it.
"When this road is completed to
the sea there will pe no other road
built. Capitalists will not invest
money 10 a road parallel with another
and if McMinnville stirs herself she
will be on the only railroad to the
sea for years and years to come.
Let us build the railroad.
Let Us progress.
The farmers of this vicinity should
know the benefit to be derived from &
railroad to the sea. The farmers 81
Linn county are now receiving six
gents or more per bushel for wheat
than you are. Why? Simply because
the o. 2. road takes their wheat to
deep water for that much less pei
blshel Do you know that the pres
ent freight rate from this city to Port
land is 50 per ton, while the S. z. &c
IS freighting Benton county wheat
through this city to Portland for 81
per ton? Do you know the reason
OF this? 1t is this. Another railroad
competes at Corvallis for the carrying
of the wheat. So You can easily sec
how you viii be benefited by a com,
peting railroad to the sea.
Not only the farmer will be bene
fitted but everyone, manufacturers
and business men as well as real es
tate holders"
"On motion, the chair appointed
the following committee TO ascertain
the best pass through the mountains
and to open up stock books of the Sa
lem, McMinnviile, Astoria & Easter
railroads.. A. Manner, VIM. Galloway

THE DOG HAD TO CLIMB.
a Thrilling Story of Man. Dog and a
Catfish.

We were comfortably seated around
the hearth at Porter Lake, In Pike
county, Pa, and the spirit OF story
telling was strong upon us, because
the fishing had been unusually good
and the supper bounteous. The flash
and sparkle OF wit filed the upper
air of the room as with fine aurora,
and halo of calm bliss encircled the
brow of each entranced listener. But
first the drug and then the antidote.
The benevolent colonel drew Us
down gently from the giddy heights
with story of a coarse plebian, To-
cally known as catfish. Thus ran his
tale: "A man and his dog went fish
ing IN the Mississippi. In a short
time the man felt a mighty pull on
the line and lie knew that catfish
had taken hold. The giant came
along peacefully enough until he hap
pened to change his mind and then be
decided to double Oh his course and
take the man along. The faithful dog
seeing his masters danger. rushed to
the rescue bravely enough. The willy
catfish. when he found the dog pur-
suing, turned upon him and terrified
the dog, who incontinently turned tail
and swan vigorously toward the dry
land, the catfish hotly following.
presently the dog gained the land
and ran hastily, the catfish madly
surging after him. The dog sorely
pressed and fearing a painful death
in his extremity climed tree, the cat
fish still pursuing"
Hold on! hold on!' we cried IL
chorus, dogs cannot climb trees
Cant climb a tree?" responded the
colonel. But the catfish was close
upon him, and this dog had TO climb.

A copy ofthe Victoria Daily Times,
gives the losses in that city by fire
during 1889, at less than $4,000. The
premiums of insurance are as low as
three-fourths Of per cent, and the
average does not exceed IL per cent
The generally satisfactory condition
OF fire service there is attributed to
the liberal policy OF the city in pro-
viding first class facilities foT fighting
fire, including an ample water supply.
Losses by fire in Astoria in 1889, ag-
gregate $50. The insurance is as
high as TEN per cent, and the insur-
ance companies are figuring on some
cinch so as to put rates still higher.
Astoria has the best volunteer fire de-

The .,oregon-cIan Mckenzie Collision.

The Oregon Clan Mckenzie" Collision.
Regarding the OTegon-ClGn Nc
kcazie disaster, Capt. Pease who was
in charge of the oregon at the time,
is reported by the OregoRjQR as fol-
lows:
He said he did not think the
ship was at one side Of the channel.
The night was dark and there had been
occasional snow squalls, but it was
clear at the time OF the collision. He
acknowledged that the ship had a
light ont when she was struck.
Il was dead on my course" said Capt.
Pease, 'and in the right place l was
making for what L supposed was a
government light ON shore (the Coffin
Rock Eght4. 1 do not know yet
whether it was the ships light Or the
shore light L was running for"
Captain Pease has not yet furnished
a written statement of the affair to the
local inspectors.
It may be said here that the collision
was probably caused by Captain
Pease mistaking the ships light for a
shore light. 1t is understood that the
ships use the same kind of a lamp as
those used along the river.
The damage to the Oregon does
not look to be serious, but it
is estimated that it will
cost $4,000 or $1,000 to repair her
There is a hole stove through her
starboard bow near the cutwater, in the
/ uGcLenzje'S forecastle and rail, with g
mattress, blanket and some clothing
of her crew hanging to them. Her
port bow is much worse damaged, the
upper part, where the iron plates are
thin, being crushed in. In the bow is
a sort of sleeping room for the decI
hands, one side of which is total
wreck, the berths being reduced tc
kindlng wood. One of the crew was
slightly hurt, and it seems strange
that the others escaped.
