cident happened TO a Condor girl the
other morning. While on a sightseeing
tour she found horse shoe, and in order
that she might try what her luck might

mouth, and wore II several hours before

changed ii from nut brown to canary

long letter which purports to have been
written by Jack Hamblet, the slayer Of
Ben Gammay on last Valentine day. 1t

Gillian county, Oregon, March 20, 1894, I"
and otherwise affords no clue to Hamb-
let's place Of hiding. There is some
doubt, Of course, as to its genuineness,
though persons familiar with his hand
writing think it is Hamblet's own.
In announcing his annual retirement
from the lecture platform, Bill Nye says
he is going to his farm in North Caro-
lima, which he states costs him three
times more TO run than he gets out OF it.
For this reason he calls it model farm.
He should come to Oregon and settle on
farm in Gillian county, where nature
returns interest upon the capital Of every
honest, intelligent where the
properly cultivated crops never fail. A
farm here might furnish the support for
Mr., Nye in his old age, when the joke
business plays out.
The republican platform of Oregon, as
adopted by the state republican conven-
tion contains the following clause /:
"When the constitution fixes salary,
only the constitutional salary should be
paid without additional emoluments.
The practice Of employing clerks, paying
fees in excess Of just payment for SER
vices needed or rendered has become an
abuse that must be cut off, and we
pledge the republican party to the pros
ecntion and accomplishment of this re-
| form. District ATTORNEYS and all other
