DETROIT, April 16.-An investigation
has been made of the official conduct of
DENIM Heffren, sheriff of Schoolcraft

treasurer Mesereau of the Chicago lum-
Der company with misfeasance and mall
feasance in Office, and the charges alIege

Moving Into Portland.

PORTLAND, April 16.-When the West
Side railway was constructed, years ago
out OF this city, it took such zigzag
course as to leave Beaverton and Hills
borough eleven to eighteen miles farther
from the city than they really are, and
it isreported that one time soon after
Conductor Webster came on the line he
was asked to bring sick man into the
city, and that the person with the sick
man would meet the train at Morrison
street and again take the invalid in his
buggy, driving in ahead of the train.
This distance is now to be cut down by
a moter line direct from Portland to
Hillsboro to be of standard gauge, and
perhaps form link in the connection
with Astoria. The distance from Port
land to Beaverton by this line will be
only about five miles, while by the
Southern Pacific line it is eleven miles.
A line of this kind would make both
Beaverton and Hillsboro suburbs of
Portland

VIM Want to See the Cruisers.

PORTLAND, April 16.-The plan is
about perfected for bringing the Ameri-
can war ships Baltimore and Charleston
up to Portland, after the Columbia cele-
bration at Astoria next month. The
plan includes excursion rates over all
the railways and steamers leading to
this city, and it is expected 1000 people
will flock here on the days to be fixed.
When the Oregon is launched it will be
incumbent on the people of Portland to
present her officers mess with a silver
service, second to none in the navy, and
the Oregon will have to come up to
Portland in order that the presentation
may be properly made. She will be a
magnificent ship and the whole state
will want to inspect her, but there will
also be a desire to see the Charleston
and especially the Baltimore, which
came SO near to having to teach the
Chilians lesson, on account of the mur-
der of some of her crew in Valparaiso.

of the boats now under construction, or
under contract is one mile The big dry

much the longest on the lakes, and will
be able to hold two large vessels at once.
As soon as the whalebacl1s now On the
stocks are launched, two more will be
placed where they now stand. Work on
the passenger boat is already under way,
and the draughtsmen are busy getting
out plans for her.

This Thing won,t work.

DETROIT, April 15.-There is consider
able comment in political circles over
the absence of Gen. Alger from the re-
publican state convention yesterday. It
had been announced that he would adj
dress the convention, and his friends say
he was ready and waiting. but he wasn't
invited. They consider that the general
has been badly snubbed at his own
home, and as result the breach between
the Palmer and Aiger faction continues
to grow wider.

the total catch to date received at Vic

mainly to the fact that seals are reported
to be much less numerous than in former
wears.

a REFINED BUT HEARTLEss F1END.
Clearly Not Insane, and Deserving of
The Very Worst Punishment
Possible.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 15.-The steamer
Alameda, which arrived yesterday morn
ing from Australia, brought details of
the Deeming murders. Nothing since
the early days of the settlement of West
Australia has so stirred the colony to it's
depths. The victims of his yillainy and
murderous crimes are numerous. The
remains of the wife which he murdered
at Windsor. southeast of Melbourne,
were found cemented in the walls of the
house in which they had lived together.
He was then passing under the name of
Drew, and was apparently of sporting
proclivities, dressed in the height of
fashion, bedecked with diamonds, and
carried himself with the air of a lord.
He was traced to the steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm, where he was identified as
Albert Williams. Eight days after the
crime Williams sought another victim,
through a matrimonial agency in Mel
bourne, and went on by steamer. On
the voyage he made desperate love to a
young lady passenger, Miss Katie
Rounsefell, of Bathurst. His manner
captured the heart of the passenger, and
when they arrived at Sydney she had
promised to become his wife. He was
then travelling under the name of Baron
Swanson, AID in glowing terms pictured
to her his vast handsome revenue, and
made glorious promises for their future
Step by step the detectives traced him,
aided in their search by his ostentatious
display of diamonds and general bearing,
and his love ENHANCEMENT with Miss
Rounsefell eventually led to his capture
At Sydney, Swanson was identified as
Albert Deeming, and eventually the
record of the man under the names of
Deeming, Baron Swanson, Drew, Will
liams and Lawson were made bare to
the world. His last victim, whose es-
cape from a murder such as had been
visited upon previous ones, is the prin-
cipal witness in the case against him
now. She was only country girl of 9,
and never doubted the sincerity of
Deeming's motives. In letter to her
sister the unfortunate girl says: s'I
suppose you know all the news now. 1

 Jake Chamberlain was already stirring about as merry as grig-and that is much to say on the plains. There are two grigs to every blade of grass from Echo canyon to the South pass, and yet every one sings and skips as gayly as if merriment would make the desert a meadow.

HOW CAN WE DO TIP
That Is What Is Agitatlng The Public Mind

~fI WE ALL KNOW THAT SOMETHING MUST SOON
 BE DONE ABOUT IT.--How TO MEET A
 GREAT CRISIS AMONG OUR PEOPLE. Something must be done about 1t.
 There is no doubt about that
 And that something must be done quickly, or it may be too late.
 On behalf of our readers we have made some very important investigations in this vicinity, and we have to report that our apprehensions were correct and are substantiated by the facts. We found that there is a greater proportion of our towns-people who are the victims of some form of nervous or chronic disorders, than ever before in our history It is a fact beyond doubt, that these diseases are Increasing in our midst at an alarming rate.
 Feeling that something must be done at once in the matter, we have been in con sultation and communication with several of New York City's most eminent physi- cians-all specialists in the treatment of nervous and chronic diseases, and we give oul readers their opinion and advice as to how to effect cure in these cases, Dr. s. M. Reynolds, one of New York City's greatest specialists, says. .unhesitat- ingly and emphatically
 'Use Dr. Greene's Nervura bloood and nerve remedy in all such cases. I have K never, in practice of over twenty-five years, recommended patent medicine. This great remedy, however, cannot be considered under that head, as it is a physicians prescription. I have used it among my patients and in my family, and unhesitatingly pronounce it the most valuable remedy for the nerves I have ever used ,
 Dr. Henry Peffer, also of New York | City's great physicians, says:
 "Tell your sick people to use Dr. | Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem ! edy. have used it in my practice with wonderful results. have found it a Der feet and complete cure for patients in my practice who were suffering from all forms ! of nervous troubles, sleeplessness, head aches, nervous weakness and debility., The great New York physician, Emil Neumer, M. D., physician-in-chief of the New York Lodge and Association Hos. pital, writes us:
 We are using pr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy at the Hospital for our patients with good success" Other physicians gave us the same ad. | vice for our people, and from the unanim. ity of opinion of the doctors, we are | assured that this great and widely known remedy is just what oul sick and suffering citizens require to lestore them to perfect 1 health. All the doctors say that it does cure, and all sufferers from nervousness weakness, poor blood, debility, stomach
 kidney or liver troubles should give it ar immediate trial. We know that it is g purely vegetable and harmless remedy and our druggists have it for sale at $ 1
 Another thing of great consequence is this, that it is the discovery of Dr. Greene
 of 35 w. 14th Street, New York, who is a renowned specialist in curing nervous affections, and he can be consulted free of charge concerning any case, personally or by letter.
