Ex- Mayer Hill and Wife Testify to DR..
Darrin's Ability In Curing Their
Som with Electrieity.

ALBiNA, Or, April Is, 1880.
DR.. Darrin- Dear Sir: We write to in
form you that our son Claud. whom you
cured (by your electric process) of sore and
running ears two years ago, has continued
sound and well ever since, and he has not
been troubled in any way with his ears
since His hearing is just as good as can
be. We take this method to express our
gratitude and to thank you for the good
you have done for us in the cure of our son.
As health is untold wealth, money could
not purchase the benefit the cure has been
to us. Refer anyone to u.s. Respectfully,

T. Moves has three and half acres, from
which he sold fifteen tons of rasins at six
cents a pound. The county crops are I'M
usually heavy and the value of the land
is rapidly increasing. T. C. Waite, of
Riverside, has forty acres at the highlands

Monkey Versus DOG.

On South street, near Seventh, yester-
day afternoon, an exiled Italian Duke
turned the crank of hand organ, while
his duodecino edition of monkey scaled
the awning posts and clamored over the
cornice fronts. The crowd was thick
when dog faneier who was rather I'M
certain on his legs pushed his way into
it, followed by a vicious-looling bull
terrier whose fresh scars BETRAYED that
not more than forty-eight hours had
elapsed since he had met an adversary in
the pit. The sporting man steadied him
self against the wall and called his dog
up TO him. Presently the monkey came
to the ground and passed his hat full of
coppers and nickles over to his master.
$50 for him, JupeiH sang out the fancier,
and Jupe started for the little monkey
with blood in his eve. The monkey
jumped TO a refuge on the Italians shoul-
der and screamed and chartered. The
refugee duke unloosed his chain and like
a fash the monkey was on the back of
the dog and sank his teeth deep into his
neck. The dog fought calamity but
useiessly. He rolled over and over IN
the effort to dislodge the enemy, who,
with extreme agility, was only shaken
from one hold to catch another. Men
who had poured out of an adjacent sa-
loon aud who had begun by betting on
the dog turned to Offering odds of four to
one on the monkey. The fight lasted
some fifteen minutes before the monkey
loosed his hold and jumped back to his
masters shoulder with a queer leer of
triumph on his puckered face, and the
dog and his owner made quick break
down the street. ''Dat monk" trium-
phantly exclaimed the refugee as he pre-
pared TO pass the hat around again,

4 Horse snims Eight MILES.

on the boat yesterday at Irvine, and was
in the act of drinking when he plunged
forward from some cause and fell into the
water up to his nose. With remarkable
instinct lie turned around and swan t2
the boat, and made several attempts to
crawl back into it, but it only served to
push it further away. BY this tims he
had drifted below the ferry, and then he
made efforts to get out upon either bank.
In this he also failed, as the bank was too
steep. Next morning the messengers on

an old line originally run by himself. On
the first survey he had driven certain
corner stake deep in the ground and COW
cred it up with large stone. When he
came to the spot he got a spade and
cleared the soil away from around the
stone, and then cleaned it of nicely with
some dry leaves, top and sides.
Next he took out his rule and made a
careful measurement Of the stone, which
he used a moment later on the basis of a
calculation to determine its weight
When he saw the product his face lighted
up with joy, for the number of pounds,
ounces and drains represented therein
was within the limit of his lifting power.
He made no attempt to lift the stone as a
means of testing his ability to handle it,
but relied on his mathematical knowledge
to settle that point for him. This is the
only case ever knew where Il man de-
monstrated his own lifting power by the

The Grin Grips the Rich Folks.

Speaking of the gyp, railroad man
says: ''The men and women who take the
cheaper classes of accommodation are not
infected to the same degree as those who
travel in the costly cars. 1 don't mean
that the contagion makes any speedier
progress in the latter, but that the sug-
gestion that the grip IS to some extent Il
disease monopoIized by wealthy folk is
borne out by my observations along the

two nights ago. They were twenty-five
people IN the sleeper, and twenty OF them
were sufferers. In the morning I went
forward into the cars where the passen-
gers who could not afford to pay for
berths half dozed away the night. It
struck me that It would be interesting to
make 8 comparison, and among seventy
eight travellers could only determine
that nineteen were grip victims. "-Ne,o

An Unknown Country.

The country in Washington, shut in
by tho Olympic Mountains, which in
eludes an area of about $500 miles square,
has never, to the positive knowledge OF
old residents of the State, been trodden
by the foot of man, white or Indian,
These mountains rise from the level
country, within ten to fifteen miles of the
Straits Of San Juan de Fuca in the north,
the Ptcifc Ocean in the west, Hoods
Canal in the east, and the basin of the
Quinault Lake in the south, and rising to
the height of 5000 to 5000 feet, shut in
a vast lnexplored area.
The Indians have never penetrated it,
for their traditions say that it is inhabited
by very fierce tribe, which none of the
coast tribes dared molest. Though it is
improbable that such tribe could have
existed in this mountain country without
their presence becoming known to the
white men, no man has ever ascertained
that It did not exist. White men, too,
have only vague accounts of any white
man having ever passed through this

claims Of travellers has invariably proved
that they have only traversed its outer
edges.
The most generally accepted theory in
regard to this country is that it con-
sisted of great valleys stretching from
the inward slopes of the mountains to a
great central basin. This theory is sup
ported by the fact that, although the
country around has abundant rain and
clouds constantly hang over the mountain
ops, all the streams flowing toward the
four points of the compass are insig-
and rise only on the outward
slopes of the range, none appearing to
Train the great area shut in by the mount
AIMS. This fact appears to support the
theory that the streams flowing from the
inner slopes of the mountains feed
great interior lake. But what drains
his lake? It must have an outlet some
where, and as all OF the streams pouring
from the mountains rise on their outward
slopes, it must have a subterranean out
let into the ocean, the straits or the
sound. There are great discoveries in
store for some of Washington's ex-
Press.

SAYS ID railroad man: "A passenger
engine averages 60 pounds of coal tc
the mile, and travels about $4,000
miles per year, while freight engine
averages 80 pounds of coal to the mile
and makes pbout $4,000 miles pei
year, while yard engines burn less.
Freight engines travel much slower
than passengers, and therefore burn
more coal per mile The largest mile
age made in 1888 by a passenger en-
CINE was 1000 miles, and by a freight
engine $4,000 miles"
