Wil'iam Gould came to Albany about two months ago from the north. Though an entire stranger he became acquainted with Miss Faunie Miller early uid it was only short time before thev were engaged to be married. Miss Miller's father being satisfied Gould was not the rroper young; man for a son-in-law ob jected very emphatically to the marriage: but they were bound to get married, and Gould told the Dkmochat man several days igo that he would marry her any way, and the event was to come off to morrow, we are infotmbd. But it will be postponed indefmiieH. A little over two montea aso Gould deserted from the barracks at Vancouver. Chief of Police Lee discovered the fact that he was the man wanted there for desertion, and this morning arrested him and placed him in the county jail. Maj. Wilson was noti fied and will send a detachment after him. Gould admitted to Chief of Police Lee that he was the man wanted, and said he had been afraid he would be dis covered. . The people of Albany evidently ap preciated the departure of the old year ur it was walchrd out generally in dif- terent parts of the city, in different ways, and 1897 was joyously hailed. At the M. E. Church South a watch meeting was conducted by the evangelist E. A. noes auu a nuiuiwr were prenenl when the o caangea to t. At Beckers hall the citizens of the eastern part of the city celebrated the transition. A very p'easant vent was the leap year party givei mine lormer tort miller & Irving etore, the largest ball in the city.

Thompson of Portland in troduced a resolution to abolish the board and have the eovernor, secretary of state and ta'e treasurer act as board of equalization to equalize tte arsees niema of the counties for state purposes only. This was defeated, Mr. Thomp son s being the only voie to support the resolution. At the beginning of the session the salaries of the secretary and clerk were fixed at 6 per day each, and that oi the messinger at f 1 60 oer day, and, at that rate, the cost far the work would have been 40a, How lie Viewed Oregon. , A man who visited Oregon during the summer has written backto a friend in the following very interesting manner: Ever since I was a bov I bave read of Oregon as a wet country, and that the people were web-footed so they could walk on top of the mud like geese and that the boys had to vet the girls on drv lau 1 before they could catch them, and to thin I that 1 found it as you might say. without a drop A rain for six months is beyond my comprehension; bt sides I think the country is badly railroad bound and there is no possible show for relief in any reasonable iime. If you should raise a dozen hogs and ship them to market, the railroad would get four eta. a pound and you two. The same way with fruit also, green or dry, they will get the lion's share, while the producer gets next t j nothing. The only chance yon have of relief from the great Southern Pacific oc topus is by an east and west road to the coast, built tT an independent company of gentlemen not hogs, who will allow the peop'e a living for their la Dor. Ilad Behavior. Claud Mcliargne, who was sent to the reform school a few years ago, who has been at home on a furlough during good behavior, wui bave to take up hu resi dence again in the reform school. Yes terday he etote a stove from the new Hill building belonging to Dr. Hill and sold it to M. Gotlieb at the 2nd hand store. It wae traced up and young Mctlargue was lodged in jail pending the arrival of Asst. bapenntendent Kmc, who took him to Salem this noon. Beaidea the stove McHargue recently stole a diamond pin and necklace be- loosing to Miss Tunnicliffe and an um brella belonging ta "Pat." The latter ras settled by the payment of f 12. The boy is almost 20. lie will be kept in the school until he is 21, and then if he doesn't turn over a new leaf decidedly will land in the penitentiary. A Hotel Thiuf. YerterdaTeveuins: a thief entered the room of Mr. Homer Craven at the Kevere House and title his brown coat an ! vest and black panta loons. On the coat was an Elk tin. highly valued .and the clothes were in ex cellent condiJon. There was no clue. but suspicious aa to who the thiet was. Ko Footbaij..

The Baker Citv Democrat says: It is generally agreed that London fixes the price of the world's markets for all commodities, which is in a manner true, bnt it does not follow that the prices on some commodotiee in Lon don prevailed throughout the world. This appears to be true w.th reference to wool. Aot being tatts&ed with the prices that prevailed here lut fall. Jf ax Kich ter, Xlount Vernon, Grant county. determined to try the experiment of shipping his wool to London, and he rites to a mend in that city that be baa received returns from tha sale thereof. The wool brought 12 cents and the ex pen of shipping were 'J cents, leav ing air rittcner if cents net lor ins wool. His wool was not of an extra quality, the best offer be cou'd get here bt-ing 6 rent, so be has cleared 3 cents per pojnd by nipping to c.ngiand. A Wosuebfcl Gcn. Mr. Savage, of Ltica, A. 1 ..inventor of the svage gun, was in the city yesterday and made r- rziigimenta with btewart & box to car ry the gun. The rifle is a wonder. Mr. havage save an exhibition ol what it will do. He fiied a lead bullet clear through a K inch piece of iron which another con only indented. Into the end of a piece of 6r he fired a bullet 29M inches, in ceatue toe ouuet went inches into the end of a cedar log.
