Arrests far Arum Several months ago John Lawrence, re siding in this county, this side of Junction, had his house and barn intared for $3,450. A couple months elapsed when the build ings were burned to the ground. Part of th; loss was palk. Afterwards Lawrence left for parts unknown, suspicions having been aroused as to how the building was set fire, indications being said to be strong that Lawrence was the incendiare. He was captured near Prlneville, and taken through Albany last week on his way home, where, we understand, the State Insurance Com pany will prosecute him. The election In Solo last week resulted in the selection of the following officers for the ensuing year. The list was sent us last week, but failed to reach us until sfter we had gone to press : J C Johnson Mayor E O Hyde Recorder. T B Barnes Marshal. R Shelton Treasurer.

Wednesday morning the Supreme Court In session at Salem, rendered Its decision In the case of the State of Oregon against W W Saunders, appealed from the Circuit Court of this county. The judgment of the latter Court finding the prisoner . guilty of murder In the first degree wae reversed and the case remanded back to the Circuit Court for a new trial. It will again be brought up at the March term, when a mo Hon will be made for a change ot venue, and what the result will be no one can prognosticate for certain. The grounds of the decision were that the Circuit Court erred in refuslnff to sustain the objection to the question asked Saunders : "Did you kill a man in Texaa ?" Thut on a mere technicality, that amounted to nothing so far as the merits of the case were concern. ed, the murderer of Charley Campbell t given a second trial, although he hat al ready had a fair one. It la useless to coin ment. The Democrat Is a law-abiding ... . 1 tl s. naner. We cannot tlo otnerwisc, mougn than remark.that there is great dissatisfaction here over the result. People do not believe It Is good law that says a case shall be re versed on such technicality. ttMKiphrry Radcr Wedtlles On last Wednesday evening a large number of the friends of the contracting parties met at the Residence of the parents of the bride to witness the marrige of W li bra A.

Over 600 people witnessed the entertain ment given by the McGibeny family at the Opera House, in this city, on bat Monday evening, the largest audience ever gathered together in the building. Like many en tertainments, many thought It fine, some inferior. People who enjoy only the sensa tional theatrical were disappointed. Those who are pleased with the performances of children were interested. The McGibeny children are certainly remarkable children in the musical line ; but when they reach a certain age there seems to be a limit to their accomplishment They gave an en joyable entertainment ; at the same time hardly such as a troup on the road so many ears should give. The Cornet duet by lr Frank McGibeny and wife was well exe cuted, the Violin playing by Hugh was superior, the anvil chorus was good and the kindergarten song was pleasing. Kinder gartens are always pleasing. As vocalists the company is certainly mediocre. As vi olinist they are good. As a very big family ranging ail the way from three years up, all of whom can do something, they are quite remarkable. Twelve children is a large number to have in the musical field. Withal the entertainment given Monday night waa an entertaining one to most who attended, and that is wnat are for. entertainments A See Bateisata The Veiled Songstress," as presented by the Eckert Lelghton Operatic troup,at the Opera House, in this eity on Thu evening of last week, waa a fine piece tittic work, probably never before in Albany. The company, thoufiTT small, is a strong one, making up in quality what it lacks in size. Mr Fullman i a remark able bass and Mrs Eckert (Miss Lelghton) a remarkable supra no, so there was some remakable singing. The audience was pleased. L. B. Slate s Mellday Article.

The man who for a year lives In one community and leads a reputable life, even though he be of moderate ability, will grow lathe confidence and steam of Ms fellows. On the same principle a new spa per advertisement becomes familiar In the eyes of the reader. It mar seldom be read. stili It makes the name and business of the man familiar, and its presence In the col umns of a paper inspires confidence in the stability of its enterprise. The Standard Oil Company has Us hands full. It winces under a heave competition and 1 spending nearly $500000 to break It. As a result we get oil for a dollar a case less than a year ago.

A bridge built a few months ago across Owl Creek In this county, it is reported to the DeaiocaaT, would be passable for foot passengers if twelve foot ladders were put up at each end.

He even went so far In the start as to say he recognised Butcher as the man he had in jail under the name of Gordon, and when Butcher proved by responsible men that he was In Walla Walla county when Gordon broke jail, he still held out that they were I mistaken and B gl Ja aaa he was right. Uutcher s friends are jubilant over the result, and well might they be, when he has proved himself innocent of a most grave charge laid at his door bv an irresoonslble Kansas officer, who criminally applied an innocent man s description to a horse thief, and had the cheek to arrest the innocent man an the thief.

They rustled around among their friends and relatives and got the money and paid their fines. They have expressed a wish that their names be not mentioned in the local papers, and as this fact itself indicates some pride of character, we will not name them here.
