THE FREE DELIVERY. MISCELLANEOUS. PROFESSIONAL STUPIDITY DAILY STATESMAN. At Reduced Prices Cict it Cocrt. The June term of the circuit court for Marion county convenes in 1 ti is city to-morrow.

The docket is unusually light, the amount of civil business being even smaller than last term. The criminal business, however, is up to its usual standard, and next week will probably see a change of quarters of several parties from the county jail to the penitentiary. Witnesses in the Saunders trial were snbpenaed to appear on June 14th, and so this trial will begin on that day, and will probably last through several days. Meet in Portland. On Monday, June 13th, at 10 o'clock, the grand chapter of Royal Arch Masons of Oregon meets in Portland, and on Wednesday will be held the regular annual communication of the grand lodge of Masons.

A number of Masons from this city will be in ID AIFIS, Oils, Yaemshes; WINDOW GLASS, PUTTY, ARTISTS' MATERIALS, AT- JnVy's DiaTp- tore, 2k2o Commercial Street, Salem.

SELLING CHEAPER THAN EVER BEFORE Postmaster Odell Receives the Orders for its Establishment in Salem The Manner of By last night's mail Postmaster Odell received from Postmaster General Vilas instructions to make arrangements for the establishment of the free delivery system in Salem July 2. Jen. Odell is empowered to nominate two carriers, who shall receive an annual salary of $(500 each.

They shall be active, energetic and healthy men, and shall be required to trive bonds for the faithful performance of their duty. Gen. Odell will make the nominations during this week, and also will name two substitute carriers, who shall fill the places of the regular carriers when, for any reason, it is impossible for the latter to serve. Eighteen mail boxes will be placed in different parts of the city. But eleven were asked for and it is not probable that use will be found for all of these immediately.

The instructions state that the present service is intended to include only the city proper, but when the system is thoroughly established, recommendations for including the suburbs will be promptly acted upon. The owners of the postoffice building will be asked to provide suitable furniture for the carrier service, in accordance with the terms on which the government leased the building. So, upon July 2d, Salem will be as fully equipped in mail service as any city of its size and importance should be. SHERIFF'S SALES.

There arrived in this city on Friday evening J. A.

Linville, from Crook county, who had in charge his wife, an insane woman. He took her out to the asylum and applied to have her received as a patient there, upon the certificate of a physician of Crook county. Following is a copy of the certificate. To the county judge of Wasco county The Dalles, Oregon Dr. C.

Mannis, practicing medicine in Antelope and vicinity, do hereby certify that on the 7th day of June, 1887, at the residence of Mrs. E. Maupin on Trout creek, Crook county, separate from any other medical practitioner, personally examined Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Linville, wife of J. A.

Linville, of Pony creek, Crook county, Oregon, and that the said Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Linville is a person of unsound mind, and a person to be taken proper charge of and detained under care and treatment. This opinion I have formed from the facts indicating insanity observed by myself. C. Mannis, M.

D. Antelope, Wasco June S. This was subscribed and sworn to before a notar3T public. Mr. Mannis told Mr.

Linville that his certificate was the only thing necessary to obtaid admission for his insane wife into the asylum. The certificate was no better than a visiting card, and Dr. Josephi refused to admit her. She was brought back to the city, and yesterday had the proper examination before County Judge T. C.

Shaw, assisted by two physicians and the prosecuting attorney. She was promptly adjudged insane and committed, and was yesterday taken out to the asylum by the proper officer, a deputy sheriff, and received there as a patient. The superintendent of the asylum has no legal authority to receive a patient unless accompanied with the proper commitment papers but he might have given this unfortunate woman a room until the proper papers were furnished, the writer thinks, without seriously interfering with the dignity of the state. However, the superintendent acted entirely as the law intends and directs. This woman is 34 years old, and is the mother of nine children.

She is suffering from female troubles, and this is the cause of her insanity. The expenses cost Marion county not less than $30, but she will no doubt be reimbursed by Crook county. This Dr. Mannis, and all the other Dr. Mannises of this state, would save poor unfortunates trouble if they would read the law, and not attempt to have insane people entered as patients into the asylum upon their worthless certificates.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION. It Semis Letters to the State Gramre ami the Oregon Pacific What the Commission Will Do. Tne railroad commission met yesterday at the state capitol for the transaction of regular business. The board occupied most of its time in answering correspondence and looking after routine business. The board sent a letter to the secretary of the state grange, in answer to a com munication sent it, recommending that it go ahead and investigate supposed overcharges, on part of railroad com panies of its own motion.

The board an swered that, while it knew it had the power to do such, and would do so when it seemed necessary, yet in most cases it was better that formal complaints be made, and for them to proceed from that basis. The following letter was sent to the uiamurerof the O. P. R. R.

Salem, June 11, 1887. Mr. Wallis Nash, General Manager O. P. R.

R. We are in receipt of information which is deemed reliable that the temporary bridges remaining upon your road, to wit, Nos. 21, 3t, 39, 74, and 99, while being entirely safe and substantial during stages of low water, are liable to wash out in seasons of high water, and are therefore unsafe and dangerous at such times. We would, therefore, recommend that said bridges be replaced bv Howe truss or other substantial ones by the first day of November of this year. Very respectfully, J.

R. N. Bell, Clerk Board of R. R. Com.

The Voard then adjourned to meet on June 27th, at which time it is understood that it will consider the advisability of recommending a reduction on freight on the O. from points south of Harris-burg. After the adjournment it will visit the narrow-gauge road, for the purpose of in vestigating tne grounds of complaints which have been made, to the effect that the road is running trains over ties that are old and unsafe.

Wool is apparently fixed at 25 cents, and considerable quantities are selling. Coyote Scalps. L. S. Morin, of Yamhill county, yesterday brought into the office of the county clerk ten coyote and two wildcat scalps, and claimed the bounty $8 each on the first and $5 on the second.

lie was allowed, however, but $50 altogether on the coyotes and $5 on the wild cats. Morin and his brother do little else than hunt coyotes, wildcats, and other animals on which bounties are offered. Their limits extend over Marion and Yamhill counties. The reductions of the bounties will make a considerable difference in their income. Some time since a young man of this city, who belongs to a coyote club, brought to the county clerk four scalps, for which he received $32.

There are twenty members of the club, each of whom pay in $1 when a coyote is killed. The four coyotes, therefore, netted him from the club 70, which, added to the $32 from the county, make $108 for four onery coyotes. Assinixe Action. The O. C.

every day places its philanthropic and generous principles of running a railroad upon record. The following is the latest: "The O. C. people have so far refused to make excursion rates with the O. P.

as they did last year. Why this action, does not seem clear, as the trains make connection at Albany in regular time. The O. P. has been compelled to put the Bentley on, and reduce the fare for the round trip to one dollar less than last year.

The first trip of the Bentley disclosed active efforts on the part of the O. C. and O. R. N.

Co. to discourage travel to the bay. The next excursion from Portland to Yaquina leaves Morrison street wharf at 1 p. m. Friday, June 7, and connects at Albany with the O.

P. R. train." Children's Day. In all the Presbyterian churches of the United States, by direction of the general assembly, Sabbath, June 12, is observed as "Children's Day." To-day, in the Presbyterian church of this city, the services will be interesting and wholly devoted to the interests of the children and youth. In the morning, the pastor.

Rev. II. A. Newell, will address the congregation of young people upon a topic suitable to the occasion, and in the evening the Sabbath school will present a pretty "Children's Day Service," and a varied programme of exercises. The public can not fail to be pleased and profited by the observance of the Children's Day.

Painfex Accident. Friday night, while A. L. Streve was running on the tongue of No. 3's hoe cart, to the fire back of the Capital engine house, the cart struck a tree near Dr.

Rowland's residence, throwing Streve violently against a second tree. The frame work of the cart caught him and mashed him against the tree, and in some way the fieshy part of his right leg was severely torn.5 Streve was taken into Dr. Rowland's residence, where his wants were attended to and he was afterwards removed to his own home in North Salem. It will be several weeks before the young man will be able to appear on the streets. Contract to be Let.

The board of school directors has decided to let the contract of finishing the East Salem school building to R. T. Denham, provided he can furnish good and sufficient bonds for the faithful fulfillment of his contract. His bid is $4956. The board will have another meeting on Monday, and if at that time Denham's sureties are not approved, the contract will be let to the next lowest bidder, Z.

Craven, whose bid is $5437. The board has also decided to sell the half block occupied by the old East Salem school building. The property will be divided off into lots. Election of Officers. The musical alumme of the conservatory of music met at the residence of Mrs.

Moore, Member of Assembly from Kichmond county. New York, writes; "Some two years ago I was taken with inflammation of the kidneys. The pain was intense I applied as soon as possible an Allcock's Porus Plaster over each kidney. Wonderful to say the pain and inrlamation oegan to abate in three hours. In two days I was entirely cured.

I always take great pleasure in recommending All-cock's Plasters; they are certainly the best external remedy known. I used them as chest protectors, and found them most efficient." DIPIHERIA. "I am living in a neighboorhood surrounded with diptheria and was attacked with ulcerated sore hroat. I at once commenced to use Darbys Prophylactic Fluid, diluted about one-half as a gargle, when great clots of hard membrane and mucous came from my throat, and the attack passed off. I am satisfied of its efficacy as a preventive and cure for diptheria." W.
