A writer in the Oregonian does not
think good way to have prosperity in
Oregon is to send 200 carloads Of potatoes
for one of bicycles. While that may be
true, a man nowadays is. hardly in the
swim without bicycle, and where one
can afford it it is certainly very satisfae-
tory to have one Of the great time anni-
hilators Of the 18th century.

Bill RAILS WRATHY. - The Corvallis
Times tells about it as follows, less con-
siderable theatrical verbiage: There was
matinee in the sheriff's office Saturday.
In the first scene Rails proposed 10 pay
his taxes, and when told by the deputy
clerk that county orders could not be ac-
cepted, and that q penalty of two per
cent ordered collected by the county
court would have to be paid, he became
exceeding wroth. He declared that the
court was without authority to collect u
two per cent penalty and that he
would mt pay it. The deputy tiied to ex-
plain matters but Rails de& Jared that the
proceeding was infamous. After going
out Rials said he had consulted an attor-
ney and that he would pay the amount
OF his taxes in cash, but nary a cent of
penalty. His taxes were about $50 and
he handed over $50. The deputy took
out the amount of the taxes plus the two
per cent penalty, and handed back the
balance. Rails counted the change and
saw that the penalty had been deducted.
Then happened by far the most impress
i've part of the performance. The Soap
Greek man rose to his full height and
shouted 'fGimme back me shekels, Jim
Sklpton; you amt smart enough TO play
that game on me-" The thunder in
Rials tones was awful, and it ''rialed"
the sheriff. "Give him back all his
money!" the lattor Kissed TO the deputy
and he obeyed. "Now Bill Rials,'' he
continued, IF you have no further busi-
ness In this Office close the door from the
outside, and the door closed.

AS0LD PisroL.-Yes,eriay q curiosity,
in the shape of a pistol, was brought 10
the Register Office hy John ". Gates.
II was carried by Mr.. Gates great grand
iather during the revolutionary war.
After he was through with it the weapon
fell to his son and SO on down. The gun
was originally tiini-lock single barrel
pistol with automatic action. Some b
years ago Mr.. Gates grandfather changed
it into precussion-cap by taxing out
the ''pan" aud inserting tube. II the
time the pistol was made il was sup
posed to be at the top of the list in the
line OF gun invention. At the time II was
changed into precussion-cap pistol 1t
was again close on the trail ot the latest
invention but today it is looked upon
only as a curiosity, and decidedly out OF
plaee.-Eugene Register.

KILLING CATERPrLLARs.-Prof. WASH
burn of the Agricultural college, sends
the following receipt for killing caterpil-
lars: "You spray the leaves thoroughly
with the following solution and it will so
poison them that the caterpillars will be
killed il they feed upon the leaves. The
solution should be kept stirred constant
ly during the spraying: One pound OF
good paris green in $50 gallons OF water"
Many orchards are now using the Bpr-
deaux mixture on apples and pears. BY
adding to this one pound of paris green
TO every l60 gallons they will accomplish
the same result. Caterpillars need a
strong dose. A Tangent man tried one
ounce Of paris green to go gallons and
writes that it simply served as tonic
and the eaterpillars wagged their tails in
delight. At least 4 ounces to go gallons
is needed.

ANOTHER KIND OF TRANP.-A man
named II. B. Campbell, was in the city
last week on his way from Portland
through California. He is travelling
point, and claims to be the prophet
David himself, and that he had actually
been in the flesh several times, whatever
that means. In other words the man is
crank. BY passing himself off as an
adventist he obtained entertainment OF
Mr.. A. ]. Carothers. Before he left Mr..
Carother became satisfied that he had
been imposed upon. So i. is everybody
has to look out for tramps.

He went to Portland where he remained
for few months and about two weeks ago
left Portland by steamer for California
with another ex-convict. Just ten days
afterwards stage was stood up north of
Napa, California, by these two men. A
day or TWO afterwards posse of as brave
men as ever hunted thieves left Napa
and killed Breckinride and captured the
other man.
