AMATEUR STRONG MEN.
Herman Oelrichs Stronger Than Sando,
William Steinway a Giant

| Herman Oelrichs Stronger Than Sandow.
William Steinway a Giant.
l know of four men who do not
pose as sons of Hercules, and who
never made a penny by spectacular
exhibitions, who, l think, could hold
their own with the quartet of for
eign invaders, Sandow, Samson, At
tia and Romulus, in trials of
strength. These men are Herman
Oelrichs, principal owner of the
North German Lloyd Steamship COM
pany; Tea Merchant Harry Buer-
meyer, Editor William B. Curtis and
Piano Manufacturer William Stein
way. Of these Herman Oelrichs,
millionaire and clubman, is the
strongest, and stronger, firmly be-
ieve, than Sandow or any of the 9TH
er professional strong men.
Two of these men, too, could come
very near to giving Corbett or Jack
son trouncing in the squared circle
-Oelrichs and Buermeyer. Both of
these gentlemen were adjudged by
competent experts fully capable of
holding their own, even with the
mighty John L. Sullivan when that
renowned gladiator was in his prime.
If they, could do this with the Bos-
tonian, they might go shade better
with the Californian or Australian.
Of this big four, as will call them,
three Oelrichs, Buermeyer and Cur
tis-were and are as good all around
heavy weight athletes as this or any
other country has ever seen. The
fourth, Steinway, despite his 4S years,
can perform downright feats of
strength-not juggling tricks-that
any of the professional strong men
would find it hard to duplicate.
Once, on wager with friends at
private trial, Oelrichs entered lions
cage, and properly accoutered for the
fray, of course, actually overcame
and reduced to state of exhaustion
by his physical resources full grown
monarch of the jungle. The lion was
muzzled with a plain leather strap,
but was not hampered in any other
way. Oelrichs thus did better than
Sandow, who only dared recently to
try with tame and crippled old lion
at San Francisco.
When John L. Sullivan was in his
prime 10 years ago, knocking out
men nightly in four rounds on his
exhibition tours, Oelrichs offered to
meet the great Bostonian in private
and give him $40, 600 if he (Oelrichs)
did not best him. Sullivan was not
one whit afraid. but as he was max
ing 500, 900 year just then he lis !
tened to the voice of his manager,
the famous sportsman. Al Smith, and
determined to take no chances. much
to Oelrichs' chagrin.
Father Bill Curtis and Buermeyer
rank next to Oelrichs as strong men.
Another STRONG man" in private
life is Giovanni P. Morosini. In early
life he was sailor before the mast.
He is over 80 years of age, yet he is a
perfect Hercules in strength.-Wl-
liam Standish Hayes in Bowling and
Cycling Gazette.

They Were All on.

There was a man going up the east
side of Brush street the other day as
another man was coming down on
the west side on the same block,
Both had their heads down and look.

halted and looked at each other, and
pretty soon the east side man growled
out:

just one minute"
"And / can knock yours off in half
minute" I" replied the other.
Don't stand there looking at me.

Just then policeman came out of
the alley and took in the situation
and asked:
Now, then, what's the matter

Why" said the east side man. 81

tongue and come near being smashed

he spat on his hand and drew his

cheap sheep In ohio.

The inauguration of Democratic tariff
reform has had direct and indirect eff
fects upon all markets, but none has de-
clined SO much as those for wool and
sheep. In this line we copy the follow
ing from the Cincinnati Tribune: Within
one year after the incoming of the Cleve-
land administration the number of sheep
in Licking county had been reduced
more than ten thousand. Now the
farmers are selling their wool-bearers as
last as they can get rid of them and at
whatever price they will bring. The
finest Merinoes are selling at 65 cents to
81 head, Que can buy for 81 piece
more fine sheep than he can drive away.
just the olher day there was sale of
sheep on a farm near Pataskala. The
stock was auctioned off in lots of a dozen
each. The bidding started off with an
offer of 6 cents dozen. 1t ended at
$4 SO dozen, and the sheep sold at

That Rrownlee BOY.

The Creswell correspondent of the Eugene
Guard says: The Browlee boy who killed
Malinda Grobe at the Harrisburg hop yard,
has lately been seen prowling around in
this vicinity carrying Spencer rife. He
stopped few days at J. B. Cruzan's, and
while there accidentally discharged his gun
so near little girls feet that the flying
gravel cut the blood from the child's bare
legs. II the boy Is only eleven years old as
was represented at his trial, it seems
strange that no inquiries are being made
as to his whereabouts and doings. People
who bring up boys so that they are unsafe
among other children should be compelled
either to keep them at home or send them
to the reform school where the state may
try to do for them what their parents should
have done before. If this boy commits an
other deed of that kind he will not get off
so easy as in the first case. He has the ap-
pearance of being at least IA years of age,
but is too young still to be allowed to run
at large with q gun.

Mysterious Disappersnee.
Baker City Democrat.

From Charles W. Mason who is down
from Cracker Creek the Democrat learns
that there is much uneasiness felt by the
miners of that section occssioned by the
continued absence Of Pat Gleason, who left
the Golden Rule mine for Hanover last
Friday, since which time his whereabo
are unknown.
The only solution TO the mystery offered
is that Mr.. Gleason lost his way and
wandered down in one of the deep canyons,
became exhausted, 9 heavy tall of snow
haYing occurred on the evening of his de-
parture, and was unable to proceed further.
A searching party was organized at
Cracker Creek Sunday morning which left
at once to search tor the missing man, but
at last acooppts no trace Of him had been
found.

Fe,1From a Car window.

The Roseberg Plain dealer Of Thursday
had the following:
A lucky accident happened on the over.
land Tuesday evening Among the pas
sengers in one of the Pullmsn coaches was
the Rev. ]. @. A. Henry. well known
Baptist divine, accompanied by his family.
About $50 o'clock the minister's little g.
year old daughter was sitting at window,
looking out upon the starry night. She
leaned over little too far, as the train was
turning a curve. and fell out of the window.
The tram was running at speed of 25
miles an hour, and as the accident was OBJ.
served by number of the occupants In the
car, it created startling sensation, which
was soon spread the entire length of the
train. The train was stopped as quickly as
possible, and everybody expected to find
maugled corpse. To the surprise OF those
who went in search of the child, the was
found mile or so back apparently unin-
jured. but badly frightened. A surgeon on
the train examined the little one, and found
she was not hurt.
The place where the accident occurred
was q little distance north of Grants Pass.

Dea.h of II. c. Farghrr.

The death of Mr.. Thomas Cannell Far
CHER, one of the early settlers of Eastern
Oregon, Is ANNOUNCED, having occurred at
| Ramsey, Isle of Man, England, last month.
The career of Mr.. Fargher was remark
able In many respects. In his earlier years
| he was possessed of large amount OF prop
erty, but through misfortune he lost con-
siderable money. He was the only son of
Thomas Fargher, of Ballalayle, Manghold,
and In the course of time succeeded to his
fathers property. Inheriting from his
father prediction for speculation In
floating property he became interested in
shipping to a large extent. On one occa-
sion, when one of his vessels was wrecked,
one of his sons aboard the sloop was
drowned with all the crew,
In 1870 he emlgrated to America and
settled in Oregon, where several of mis- sons
have now established themselves. He re-
mained in this state for .lS years, and dur
ing that time became imbued with thol
ough admiration of this country, its law and
customs.
In 1888 he returned to the land of his
birth, living with his daughter, but he
always spoke of his intention to return to
Oregon. During the past few years he has |
been interested IN establishing his claim to |
q large amount of property in England. to |
which he considered his family entitled. |
The property is now in the chancery court |
Of England, and is valued at nearly e.,
DOC, 900, including interest for 200 years.
Among these was William Callow, Danish
ed in 1865, who took up his residence IN
London. where Mr.. Fargher said he en-
,erty to the extent of 100000. MIR. Far
,her claimed he was descendant, upon
lis mothers side of Mr.. Callew, and as
uch was one of the heirs to the estate in
hancery. Up to the time of his death he
ad ample faith in the justness of his claim.
Mr.. Fargher, in addition to his daughter
4 England, leaves four sons to survive him,
II living in Oregon. They are Thomas,
Ioratio, Alexander and Arthur. Mr..
.lexander Fargher resides In this city and
engaged in the stock business, the re-
laining brothers living IN Eastern Oregon,
milarly employed. The death of the
ther was due to heart disease, an old com.
laint, and he was "a years of age when
assing away.
