THURSDAY
A PROFESSIONAL RUM.

TIE champion bum CT the world is in
Albany. A well-dressed man called at
the DEMOCRAT offic Today to see what
the Salem Statesman said about him.
The Statesman gave him a long notice
aud the Oregonian about column. For
eleven years he has tramped, never
walking bat getting free passage, gener-
ally on brakebeams. From Salem to
Albany he was put off three times, bat
arrived here just the same on the same
train. The man Is we'll dressed and no
one would take him for tramp, but he
sawshe can't be anything else. He pays
for everything but travelling, having paid
only So. 20 In his life and he has travelled
2s0,000 miles by rail, 5000 bv steamer,
ST5, 900 miles. He pays for what he eats
AMI his lodging. coming from res
taurant to this Office. He hss been in Eu-
rope seven times and on every continent.
He clai MS to have been in every village in
the United States, and put your finger
on the map of the u. 5. and he will give
approximately the place. He says his
home is in San Francisco .-nd that he
gets $75 month and earns something
writing for the papers, including the
Police Gazette. When riding he wears
oyeralls and blouse. AS an example of
his bumming he told the DEMocRAT
about riding on the same train from
Chicago to Denver. He is proud of his
dangerous profession. He rides the
brakebeam so easily that he never uses
a seat, and can swing upon fast run
ming train. The msn claims to speak
seven or eight different languages and
probably does. His best record was
New York to San Francisco in IL days
and s hours. Among other places he
was in Cuba twice. He has a book full
OF addresses of people he has met. He
was atJuneau in 81, and says he doesn't
want any more OF Alaska. The DEMO-
Graf doesn't remember meeting a more

- TANGENT, Aug. 10, 1897.


All the fall wheat in this vicinity is
threshed and put into the sack ready for
the warehouse and as a general thing
fall wheat was exceedingly good this
year and the yield WAS pretty fair. Mr..
A. j. Perry had a fine yiell of white win.
ter wheat that averaged 49, bushels per
acre, and Mr.. Smell had a field that
yielded 2ais bushels per acre and from
that down TO 25 and 20 bushels per acre.
The wheat is Of excellent quality and
was very heavy. The company We
harvested in just finished up threshing
their fall run and it will be about iwo
weeks or more before they commence on
the spring run and the spring grain is
good this year and most all OF the farmers
will have a bountiful crop this year
and with fair price the farmers will
prosper.
Prof. Mitchell was seen in Tangent to.
day. He is still canvassing with his maps
and charts
The roads have been full OF teams last
week hauling straw TO the paper mill.
Miss Clara Blevins had quite runa-
way one day last week, her horse be-
came frightened and ran away with the
buggy hitched to it, and the horse
jumped over the fence a short distance
from the residence OF Mrs. S. f. Mills
and took buggy and all. No one was
hurt but the buggy was badly demoral
lied.
The farmers are somewhat busy haul
ing off their grain TO the warehouse.
Some one misinformed Little Rose
Bud as to where we started mp threshing
for we did not start up :wo miles east, it
was miles north on the Columbus Nc
Farland farm which is being realed to
Mr.. Chas. Bryan. There is where We
startel up ihreshing and Mr.. A. J.
Perry has had a fine crew oil men TO
work and besides good cook which was

did the cooking for the outfit, and they
did well.
