the gentlemen who got up his lagger
entrances for him. to their utmost 20
provide new ideas for him. He entered
with kings hitched with golden chains
to his chariots drawing him through the
VIA, this or that, 10 his palace, and was
sometimes borne by chariots drawn by
the fair and peerless daughters OF g.or-
Ious Rome; bu, never even in his tri.
umphal entries did he or could he have
been drawn by great teams of ponderous
probiscidians and huge sil ser bumped
eamels as arg many of the golden char
lots seen in The Walter L. Main marvel

teams of elephants and camels drawing

THURSDAY
MORE OF THEM.

Albany people at the depot today came
in contact with more eastern people than
ever before here in one day.
First came the Maine and Massachu-
setts sections. Yankees from Yankeeville,
from the homes of Tom Reed and Ben
Butler.
Then came the Vermont and Connect
icut trains, Green mountain men and
women with honest, homely faces, but
intelligent and entertaining, a live crowd
after all. The Linn county board and
real estate men had made fine exhibit
that attracted attention and opened their
eyes wider than the mouth of the Con-
necticut
Wonderful" said an old lady.
''I'd like to live here" said another.
81 must have head of that wheat
said an old lady, and she got it, hand
ling it as if it were Jewel.
A good many Albany people were
present to entertain them during their
twenty-five minutes stop The Con-
necti>uters ala had nutmeg charms, and
you know where they were from at ence.
Then came the New Jersey train, a long
one, part OF the cars being 80 sections,
immense ones. On account of the i'm
tnOusc LlusQuituSS Oh new Jersey tnSy
did not open their eyes at things very
seriously, but being hungry as bears,
rushed like cyclone for the dining
room.
Boys and men around with apples,
cherries, sandwiches, etc., did a thriving
business, and Oregon views by Crawford
4 Harnish were in big demand
The New York train came into the de-
pot before New Jersey had left. They
were delayed some before they could get
dinner, hungry people. Like the others
they inspected Linn county's resources
as ably presented by G. W. Watts, w. II.
Warner, Harlan Hubert and others.
One man was bound to take something
away so he secured a big potato, which
he displayed hilariously.
A train passed through at 1:30. not
stopping, as Mine Host Vandran did not
have time to get up dinner for them, SO
close was 1t to the other trains. A train
at 2:30 and one at O'Clock it was ex-
pected would he taken care of.
There will be trains tomorrow and SAT-
urday, the Pennsylvania train coming
Saturday morning. 1t is most impossi-
bile though to keep track OF the trains by
states.

ing held delightful picnic near Sam
Gourley's on the Corvallis road, coming
home by moonlight. Thirty or forty
people, feasted, sung, etc, for several
hours previous to the return home. With
the bicyclists was fine three seated rig,
driven by a newspaper man. One o
the party tells the DEMOCRAT about q
thrilling event as the team crossed the
open bridge on the way home. Six bold
men sprang from a covering and with
frontier style stood up the occupants,
relieving them of fourteen cents and
postage stamp. The driver thinks he
recognizes one of the men from his bow
legs. The men all rode bicycles, five
being Crescents, and OF course escaped.
DIR. Davis was one OF the occupants of
the wagon, and our informant says his
hair stood up straight.
