REMARKS.
Heard on the Street, and Else
where; Gathered by the
Advance Reporter.

Daniel Shell: 1 would like to see a
racing meeting held here next June
or July. The location of Worthington
is favorable, and we could, no doubt,
get several thousand people here
to see the races. I believe series of
summer races would be of great bene-
fit to the fall fair. The track would
be put in much better condition, and
stimulate an interest in good horses.

Gratis Of Worthington are going to
start a paper to buck the ADVANCE
and Globe. \ personal organ for one
or two democrats may be luxury
for them, but as business venture
will fall fiat. There is no room in
Worthington for the third paper, and
if started will only prove hardship
on the ones that hold it up.

Pioneer Citizen (who doesn't want
his name mentioncd:) In muddy
weather it seems to me that our good
looking mayor ought to keep the
cross walks clean. OF course | do
not mean that he should get out him
self and shovel the mud off, but he
should send a man.
XXX
Geo. w. Wilson,: Yes, I take a
2-mile walk every morning, and be-
lieve it is very beneficial to my health
as never felt better in my life than l
do now. Walking is a healthful exer-
else, but don't expect to continue
my daily jaunts when old mercury
gets down to 40 below O in the shade.

blecourt house and jail for this county.
It is well known fact among peo-
pie who have investigated it, that the
old hulk of a court house at Worth
ington is nothing but fire-trap, and
should fire ever get started in the
building, the records of the titles to
|all the real property in the county
would be destroyed and there would
be no record to show what any man
owned, and it would cost the people
many, many thousands of dollars to
obtain record Of whatever title they
could obtain, from parties who now
own sets of abstract books, and such
a loss as that would be irreparable
and should guarded against.
There is no longer any use to dis
guise the fact that we need a new
court house and the necessary vaults
to preserve records in, and we need
them badly, and as far as the people
of this part of the county are concer-
ned, they are in favor of such build
ing being constructed, without being
interfered with by any of the parties
who are particularly interested as to
the location of the court house. The
present court house is disgrace to the
county; but we do not place any stress
upon that question; it is safety we
want in preference to looks.
! We are informed that one member
of the county board, Mr.. Mock was
opposed to the building of one or both
of these buildings, at present, owing
to stringency in money matters, but
when he found that three members of
the board were in favor of proceeding
at once. he, like the sensible man that
he is, was then ready to do anything
and everything in his power to fur
ther the proceedings, and see that it
was done properly, beause the board,
as board, had voted SO to do. So
that, as it now stands, four of the
county commissioners are in favor of
proceeding without any unnecessary
expense or delay, but they are i'm
peded by little handful of gentle
men, who either wish to divide this
county into two, SO that they have a
county seat at Adrian. or think they
will eventually obtain the county seat

Tried TO shoot her P.ramour.

PoRT ANGELES, Sept. Especial. IA
sensational shooting incident occurred in
this city last night. The principals in the
affair were Mrs. Mary Easter, formerly of
Portland, now of this city, and Adolph
Nicholli, also formerly of Portland and
Astoria. These two came to this city
some two years ago and built a cannery.
the woman claiming that she furnished
all the money. They both occupied
rooms in the cannery building, but on
many occasions quarreled, Mrs. Easter
claiming that Nicholii had too much to do
with other women. At one time she fol-
lowed him to Astoria and brought him
woman. Things went on about half
smoothly until yesterday. when Nicholli
returned from . trip to Portland. bringing
with him another woman. At
once Mrs. Easter became angry,
and, arming herself with . re-
volver, started out on the warpath.
She saw Nicholli standing across
the street from the cannery, and at once
began to shoot at him. She fired three
shots, which went wide of their mark,
after which the cartridges in her revolver
refused to explode. Meantime Nicholli
ran into the house of ]. w. Strowther,
hiding upstairs, and neighbors disarmed
the infuriated woman. At this she came
up to gunstore to get another
revolver, but went into the private
room of saloon, where she soon became
very much intoxicated. Starting for her
home she fell in the street and was ar
rested by Policeman Cook and locked up
in the city jail. This morning Nicholli
left for Seattley MIS-. Easter is sick today,
