Railroad Reports.

San Francisco dispatch says that
within few months, another transcon-
tinental railway, the Union Pacific sys-
San Francisco. This will break rail-
road monopoly that has held this city in
an iron grip ever since the first railroad
reached this section of the Pacific coast.
After years of patient efforts and many
disappointments, the Union Pacific svs-
tenn has effected an arrangement by
which it can reach Ssn Francisco bay.
This will be accomplished by a connect
ing link, the Oregon Central & Eastern
railway, formerly the Oregon Pacific,
uniting the Union with the San Francisco
& North Pacific railway. commonly
called the Donahue broad-gaGge line.
The latter is to extend its line from Ukiah
to Covela. The Oregon road now ex-
tends to Corvallis and Yaquina bay, by
that state. The connecting road will
follow down the coast, and join the
Donahue system. A Omaha dispatch,
though, states that S. II. II. Clark, the
managing receiver of the Union Pacific,
states that the report is entirely untrue,
so far rs it relates to his company. He
said:
at will be impossible as well as i'm
practicable for the Union Pacific railroad
TO undertake 30 extensive system of
Improvements. The reports clearly re-
late to the Oregon Pacific"
All of hich goes to show that railroad
reports nowadays need investigating. 1t
is to be hoped there is some Iire in the
matter.

How BKUSK LosT $l35.-Recently the
DEMOCRAT copied an item from Cor
Wallis paper about the so buggy ride OF
Mr.. Brunk, OF Polk county, and the no.
torious Mrs. Post, of the Summit. After
wards the couple were in Albany, and
from here went to Portland. and the isi-
lowing, erroneous as to new acquaintance
ship, is given as the result by the Ore
gonian: J. o. Brunk, a Polk county
farmer, living near Independence, fell
amongst the Philistines yesterday. Un-
der the inspiration of several drinks, he
felt particularly good, and, during the
afternoon, made the acquaintance OF one
Katie Post. She prevailed upon him to
visit her room, No. II At the National
hotel, and, when the Polk county farmer
left, he was $l35 short. He complained
to the police, and Katie soon after found
herself a prisoner in the central station.
Upon being searched 800 bill was
found sewn up in the folds OF an under
garment. The remainder of the money,
$35, was found hid in the bosom OF her
dress. In order to insure the attendance
of Brunk in court, he was detained at
the station as witness. Today he will
recount his experience in metropolitan
life when called as 4 witness in the mum
icipal court.

4 Side Issue.

The following from the Telegram Is
decidedly Interesting. Il makes II look IS
Il the real issue with Mr.. Hammond
was theO c. & E. and mot the Gohle
road:
". J. Ingalls,, one OF ClAtsop's large
realty-ho!ders, gives an inside version OF
the hitch occurring between Mr.. HAM
mond and the subsidy COMMITTEES a. As
tori2, which has resulted in = stoppaSe
OF negotiations on the building Of the
Astoria * tIohls road, for the time being.
Mr.. Hammond has insisted on ab-
sirActs Of the subsidy deeds being made
and submitted TO HIM The committee
did not like this and held hack until told
by Mr.. Hammond that unless the alb
sirscts were made, not sod would be
turned on the road so far rs he was con-
eerned. As the Bonner people had with
drawn from the field snd the Hammond
proposition vas their last chance, the
subsidy men gave in and the abstracts
were made. A meeting was arranged st
which the committee Was to meet Mr..
Hammond and the deeds be presented.
All went well at the meeting until some
fiaw came up which interested SIR. c. II.
Page. An argument ensued which end
ed by Mr.. Pzse declaring himself as mot
caring whether the road wen, through
or not He had gotten IN on the former
boom and wss pretty comfortable"
To this Mr.. Hammond replied; "Well,
Mr.. Page, il those are your sentiments,
let me inform YOU that have got IN en-
several deals befo-e now and am feeling
pretty comfortable myself. Your rnad Is
q side issue anyhow" and taking his
hat Mr. Hammond left the room, since
when the committee have seen him no
more.
The following from the Budget, s very
nervous paper, doesn't look IS if Astoria
papers were very much disturbe<i-
Through the efforts of Mr.. Hammond
Astoria will be made to boom. He will
use both his influence and money for this
purpose. So gentleman who is close TO
him stated to q Budget representative
in Portland yesterday. His idea is to
make his big subsidy very valuable by
the time the road is completed. He will
go TO work within two weeks from the
time the committee here have wound up
their business.

ALABAMA" Augustus Thomas's beau
tiful play will be the attraction at the
opera house on Tuesday evening. May
IS. There are many beautiful effects in
this delightful play, one of them, the re-
suit of little accident, is exceedingly
pretty and is worth recounting: When
the curtain goes up on the third act OF
Alabama" the fragrant odor OF the
Magnolia permeates the theater, and
each one in the audience turns around
and looks at his neighbor wondering
where the delicious perfume comes from.
They do not realize it comes from the
stage. This little bit OF realism, il such
it may be called, originated with the au-
thor. While watching the performance
the first OF the week In New York, Mr..
Thomas occupied box. In one of the
orchestra seats q fashionably attired lady
pulled a small vial of cologne from her
pocket, and in SO doing, dropped it. The
vial broke and the scent was plainly
noticeable all over the house, not strong,
but family sweet and seemed in keeping
with the beautiful foliage and hanging
moss on the stage. The next day Mr..
Thomas consulted chemist and had
him prepare several ounces OF extaact of
Mongolia. Just before the curtain went
up the next night, an atomizer spray
was used on the stage. and the odor OF
Magnolia bloom filled the stage: when
the curtain went up, the scent was blown
to all parts OF the house. The illusion Of
q southern night was complete; the
moon, the scenery, the negro voices and
the magic odor OF the Magnolia.
The company presenting Alabama"
includes the famous and popular actor,
Frank C. Bangs, Clement Bainhridge, for
whom Mr.. Thomas wrote the part of
Capt Davenport, winsome Ethel Irving,
Inez Knolton, L. p. Hicks, Geoige B.
Miller, Louise V. McElroy, Edward
Mas, Charles Moore, Z. E. Raymond
and Emyline Barr.
