of music issuing from Jacobsen's store,
where Prof. Baldwin and Frank French

would seem to be standing out in dis
tinct view. One of Oneonta Gorge is
particularly fine, as is also that of the
falls at the Cascades. They are perfect.
The mystery of the valise which was
found along the river bank short ways
below the city about week ago, has
been solved. 1t was feared that inveeti-
