A SAD CASE.

Two Corvallis girls ran away
from home and came 10 Albany in
the early hours yesterday morning.
They came in on a blackboard with
two young men a little after mid
night. The mother of one of the
girls arrived soon after in pursuit of
the ,unaways. She overhauled her
daughter soon after thev arrived
and caught her by chasing her down
the alley. The mother induced the
truant girl to get into her buggy,
but no sooner was this done than
the misguided girl whipped up the
horse, throwing the mother to the
ground, and after driving to the
rendezvous of the other girl, they
drove away toward Cory allis, leav-
ing the broken hearted mother to
hire rig and drive home. The
girls have evidently started at
rapid pace down the road to ruin.
They and the young men with them
are likely to be arrested if they re-
peat the performance here.-Al-
bany Herald.
What's the use of arresting such
lecherous scoundrels as the young
men must be. The mildest treat
ment that such wretches ought TO
receive should be not less than fifty
lashes on the bare back, with a nice
coat OF lar and feathers put OIL as a
poultice. The girls are to be pit
led.

place, that the society is we'll pleased
with the reports of their agents
Messrs. Goldberg and Brickman

homes for members of the society.
He states that the lands of this
county were the only lands on the
coast they found suitable for their
purposes. They have presented
the matter already to the secretary
of the interior with a view of getting
leasing privileges.

The steamer Bismark, enroute to
Rogue river, which put into New
port recently, reached Rogue river,
but did so in tow ofthe tug Tonquin,
and was badly sprung and leaking.
She encountered rough weather off
Cape Blanco, and the tug, which
was towing scow, had to cut loose
and go to her assistance. By hard
work she was got onto the beach at
Rogue river, where she will have
TO be patched up before she can be
floated. The tug returned to
search for the scow, but no trace Of
it could be found.

The o. c. & +. will change time
on the east end soon, and will run
the train from the front to Corvallis,
at which place it will lay over night
instead of at Albany as heretofore.
This will give two trains each way
daily between Albany and Corvallis,
and will prove to be very convenient
to those places.

Weekly Crop and Weather Report.
WESTERN OREGON.

come change from the SnoWery
weather which extended from Au-
gust goth to that date, the 9th.
The total rainfall for the eleven
days was 2.6S inches at Portland
and o.SI of an inch at Roseburg;
at Ashland and vicinity one-half
inch fell. In the coast counties as
much. or more, fell as at Portland;
and in the great Willamette Valley
about inches fell, in some locali-
ties more, in some less; throughout
the entire district of Western Ore
gon more rain fell than usually falls
during the eutire month ofSeptem-
Der.
The rainfall for the past week
ranged from one-half TO one inch,
being greatest in the northern por-
ton. The temperature for the
week averaged 50 degrees, which
is degree higher than the preced-
ing week. The maximum tenn
peratures averaged 6S degrees, and
the minimum averaged so degrees;
the highest during the week was
so degrees, on Sunday; the lowest
a. degrees, OH Friday, when light
frost occurred on the higher eleva-
tions and in the foothills. The sky
was more than usually overcast
with clouds and the sunshine was
deficient. Fog in the mornings
prevailed along the coast, and was
high.sfog in the interior.
Crops.-The cessation of the
rains are most opportune, for the
hops and grain had about as much
rain OH them as they could stand.
The rains and damp weather pro-
duced more mold in the hops, and
the result is some hopyards will not
be picked. 1t is estimated that the
rains damaged one third the total
hop crop, so much 50 that they will
not be picked, and caused mold to
appear in almost every yard. The
Iains injured, to an extent, the
wheat that was in shock; the dam
age will be reduced materially by
the fair weather, which allows the
grain to dry. Little, if any, grain
has been absolutely ruined, though
some oats, not properly protected,
may be ruined. The damage to
the grain, when considering the
total product, will be very small
percentage. The rains caused
Petite prunes to crack open badly.
Threshing is very active, and
with favorable weather in will be
practically all done by the close of
the current week. Hoppicking,
delayed by the rains, is being
pushed along; there is a shortage
of pickers, but the crop will be well
out OF the way within the next
seven days. Fruit picking and
drying are very active, and the hop
pickers, when through that work
will go on with fruit picking.
Volunteer grain has sprouted and
in places is two inches high. Win
ter barley, sown August goth, i,
four inches high. Fall blowing
and seeding are in active operation.
Potatoes are being dug, and they
are a big crop. Cabbages, carrots,
onions, etc., are big crops. Corn
is being gathered. The years
crops are now nearly all gathered
and great has been the harvest
Figs are ripe and are profitable
crop at Langlois, Curry county
Grapes are ripe and Withdrawing
has commenced. Pastures are agair
green and stock is fattening up.
The weather conditions are favor
able for fair and warmer weathe
from Wednesday.
