Please mention this paper.

The north-bound S. 2. freight train was
ditched on Saturday morning about mile
north of Parker's Station, at the Clay Pit
siding, at which point the switch rails
spread. A particular bolt which holds the
connecting bar was found on the track near
where it had evidently been removed by
some person intent upon wrecking the train.
No person on the train was injured. AS
there was no engine south on this division,
a wrecking train sent from Portland up
on the east 81 lie and reached the west side
over the D. P. track thence ner.h to the
scene of the disaster. The passengers, mail,
ETC., was transferred and reached Corvallis
late in the evening.

About two years ago a sewing machine
agent named Peck or Baxter hired horse
and buggy from Mr.. Eglin in this city for
an afternoon. The fellow did not return at
the time agreed upon and Mr.. Eglin
started out after him. He traced the fell
low through Monroe and south to the
hesdwaters of Long Tom; thence eastward
to forty miles up the Willamette from
Eugene. Here Baxter had abandoned the
animal and vehicle and made his escape on
foot. Later he was sent to the penitentiary
tor embezziement by the Singer Saving
Machine Co., and he completed his term of
confinement some time ago. He was serv-
Ing term in the Coos county Jail for some
misdemeanor, and Sheriff Osburn made a
point TO be present when he was liberated.
He is now in the Benton county Jail await

We understand that Baxter was sent to
the penitentiary from this county some
years ago for forgery.

DECIDEDLY SHAKY.

A trembling hand, an uncertain step,
6dgetiness, indicated by!.restless shifting
from one place or posture to another, usually
mental annoyance at unexpected noises, are
among the indications of extreme nervous
ness. These seem trifing, but the health of
men and women in this condition is
decidedly shakey," liable to be overtnrown
disastrously by causes which the vigrous
might defy. To fortify the nervous system,
general yigor must, through the medium of
reinforced digestion and a renewal of an
impaired power of sleeping at night. be
raised to hcalthful standard. A guarantee
of this Is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
re-establishes digestion, bile secretion, and
the habit of body ON a permanently regular
basis, thus renewing the bodily equilibrium,
which is followed by gain of strength aud
nerve tranquility. For kidney complaint,
Rheumatism, neuralgia, and as preventive
