The play, "Bread on the Waters," presented by them, we have heard commanded on every band, and nearly all prevent have spoken fa the blghoat term of the acting done in the presentation of the pi ay, many saying it was as good as any they have seen in this city by amateur.

The receipts for both eveniugM were 120.25, and the expenses about 3'. saatcst. On Wed nee Uy afternoon of last week ataboul three o'clock, Mrs (i W Burk hart and sister hearing a noise upstairs, at their home, on ibe corner of Parry and Eighth streets, ascended the stairs. When near the door, a tail, dark look ins; woman, dressed in white, emerged from a bedroom door and stood belora them, ghostly and gravelike. She raised her bauds, when her beholders became frightened and fell down stairs, and nothing mora was seen of the appar ition. This is the story they tell, and we have no citizens more truthful. It is claimed too that they saw the ghost as plain as anything could be seen, and both described the woman alike. Tbey were not superstitious nor believers in such things, so that it m hard to account for the matter, nor is it for us to do so. We can on'y chronicle the facts in the case. It is now claimed that the boose is haunted aad that this same ghost siaaen au auuvai pnnMiiv, claiming that they have seen it and de scribe it In the same way.

The C rand Lodge ol Odd Fellows for the State of Oregon and Idaho is meetiog in Portland, this week, ami is being very large ly attended. Thompson A RoSstrU bow have the largest stock of harness and saddles ia the valley, outside of Portland, and the prices lower than any. If we were any where near Jefferson and wasted bargains in general merchandise of ' any kind we should by all means give C B Roland k Co. the first call So yon get your groceries at Huffman A Joseph's. That is correct. Tbey keep a first-class stock, and yon can depend on them for the latest in everything. It is a fact worth noticing as cheap, new aad desirable goods as eaa be bought any where, are to be obtained at the olothiog store of L E Blain. It-member this. There is in time to be a huge city in Southern Oregon, bat jast which one is to be the fortunate one we can not say. Many think Ashland has the inside track.

A letter to the daughter of oue of Albany's okl residents T H B Helm, of Klizsbeth, Texas, was received a few days ago by the 'daughter of "Uncle George Hughes." It ! shows crops very backward there. Charles Anderson was sentenced by Judge Scott st Portland, to one year's imprison, ment in the penitentiary. A curious feature of the case wss the presentation of a petition or hid pardon before the sentence was pro nounced. An interesting letter from Mr Edward Belienger, dated at Healdsburg, Cel., tells of the location of him and his brother at that place. He has purchased a small farm there, aod says the climate ia splendid and health good. Last week we published an item entitled "On the Marry," and signed S B. Now it seems that another party with the same in itiaiS took it to herself, ami hence felt some what indignant over it, for which we are very much grieved. Our citisen are now having a chance to set in reference to the woolen mills. It is not as easy as talking, but accomplishes much more. We are glad to notice though, that they are coming up to the mark, and Joingtheir dnty well. "Ah," said a farmer friend of ouri, "I just wish you could nee my wheat Held as well as my neighbors, finest sight you ever saw." You see he lives on high ground and everything is as lush and lusty as if Shakes peare had been present. Last week a big horse show was given m MuMinnville. The finest horses of the county were exhibited there, the exhibition being witnessed by a large concourse of peo pie. We suggest that Linn county horse men follow suit and have one in Albany. The trial of Harry W Abrama for the warder ef Pr Brewnlee, at F.ugene, olosed latt week, The verdict of the jury was murder in the second degree, punishable by imprisonment in the penitetiary for life. The excitement over the trial was great. It is no mistake, Will Bros., at their gen eral S.

' There is nothing which shows the pros perity of a city more than its newspapers.

Toe groomsmen appeared in full military costume, as did also the groom. As we went to press jast after the mar riage we have neither space nor ti ins to give the details ef the marriage ceremony, It is sufficient to say that it wss dene iu an im pressive manner, in the usual form on grand occasions, aad could dee have passed elf more smoothly. After Miss Footer had been pronounced Mrs Capt Powell, the bridal party, with the ievited guests, mostly the members of the Holland club and tbe Ladies band, of both of which Mrs Powell waa a member, and relativea aad several friends from Portland, went to the residence of the bride's father, .J.H.Foster, where congratulations were heap ed en tbe happy couple, a sumptuous wedding dinner waa served, when the guests accom panied the bride and groom to the depot, where a special ear awaited them and their Portland friends. At noon thev left for Portland, from which place they will go to Victoria and other places on their bridal tour. The best wishes of the whole com munity go with Mr. ami Mrs Powell, and though Albany loses one of its most accom plished young ladies, Capt, Powell has wen an estimable wife.

Ifbat it lac'as are m mufautoria. It is supported as well at it can bo from the farming interests. In order to prosper it must offer inducements for outsiders to esse hers, and net only com here, hut re main. A woolen mill will do more than any other institution a", the nreeout time It means more than the mill itself It will bo the ball that will set other industries to rolling It will attract the attention of other maaufacbtrton, aad that means grow tb.
