WnAr FoR As some people do not ex.
se,ly know what sewers, of which we are
get,iug a sliee.or two In Albany, are for
we give the following from an Oregon rs;
Tn speaking of sewerage, there j. another
important matter connected herewith that
the property owners are responsible for.
To those who ate not accustomed To living
In civilized communities, we will say, tina,
a sewer Is used for drainage aud not a. a
receptacle for tin cans, rubber boots, old
shoes, rags and other similar refuse. This
Is one Of The causes that stops up sewers
and overiows the streets and yards IL
some people would buy book upon
streets aud sewers and lead up lit,le,they
would be benefited II Il always n good
thing TO be posted upon such matters"

Mr Baber at his word and received his re.
ward for grca, honesty IN returning the |
purse and papers for which he had no use. |
lie Is entitled to great credit for putting /
himself TO so much trouble.
vERY MYSTERIOUS (0-A stranger Ia

man there, to begin the mex, morning. He
started to get boarding place, and the
sSt seen Of him he was going on with
woman who had rooms to rent. lie failed
to put IN an appearance afterwards. The
case is plain enough. We have lots Of
them Ia Albany and never mention them. |
| The man changed his mind and left for |
other parts. Probably got his supper on |
the strength of the Job, which perhaps wa.
what he was after. We advise the Journal
not 10 tire its reporters cut running after /
the mystery.
EVERYBODY Co.'s AT EUGESk.-- The |
public schools of this city show an 10.
crease Of over az per cent over last year,
The attendance last year at the close of
the first month was 4o2. This year ct
the beginning OF the third week the attsn
dance was sos. one room having 70 Al
the close of the month they will show an
increase Of at least 80 per cent. This
shows that the town has grown very rapid
y toe past year and we doubt II any city In
The valley can show better increase. The
rooms have an average OF 63schoiars each.
