The resemblance ot Mrs W hiteborn to the Washington fam ily features is also quite marked. Major Ball crossed the plains in 1850 and was entertained at the home of John Minto, five miles south of Salem, and is very well remembered by pioneers of that time. Major Ball brought a troop of United States infantry to tbe Pacific I coast, and the battlefield ot Ball's bluff. where Colonel Baker was killed, bears his name. Salem Journal. . Correspondent's Statement. Lebanon, Ob., April 19, 1897. Editor Democrat: I see in the Tennessee correspondence in the columns ot your paper in a recent issue, a statement about my father R. W. Munsey. The article stated that rny father wanted tbe school children of the neighborhood to go by way of Lebanon, to come to school, or in words to that ef fect. Now that is a malicious, wilful lie which was intended by the writer to in jure my father. He has never spoken a word about any of the school children not going across his premises except the sapheaded boy who wrote tbe piece Ue has a straight county road from bis door yard to the school house and instead of traveling that, he would go out of his way and pass through father's meadow, and one day father told him to go the road as he did not want roads made through the grass. And from this he sends you the pice referred to, and I will say further that nearly hall oi the school children pass througa father s premised evert dav going to and from school. If you doubt my statements, just write and a-k any of the following men who are our neighbors: P. L. allace, Ed Myers, Ueo. Koss or u. t . Burkbart and see if 1 am right. 1 aui very respectfully, E.

Rilev Moore was engaged in cutting or slashing some small Umber. Three or four trees be came lodged and in the effort to cause them to fall, we suppose, he was chop ping over his head and by some means bit ax came in contact with bis right cheek laying it open from bis ear to tbe point ot the chin . Mr. Moore tied the wound up as well as he wa able and came to this city to have it properly dressed. On last Monday ev imng I Jong Hamil- GlleJ an appointment to preach over at the livery stable. At the conclusion of services that bad la'tetl one half an boor or mere it was thought proper that the rite of baptism should be administered. Reversing tbe nsual order it was deter mined to baptise tbe preacher. Some one about this time turned of! the elec tric light and tbe first thing Doug knew be was being soused into tbe large wat ering trough which was well fillet! with water. This rough treatn.ent did not seem to dampn tbe ardor of Brother Hamilton at all, for neat once com menced preaching again. Another bap tism was alao thought expedient and into tbe trough poor Doug went again. n ben be emerged from tbe trough be very much resembled the traditional drowned rat and all disposition to preach bad passed awav. He was suppiitd wtb dry ciothing by J. N. Morris, or he might nave suQsred somewhat from . bis wet ting before he reached his borne. While we regret that so severe treatment wa ad ministered to Hamiltorji and we believe that the action is generally condemned by our citixens, we hope Doug will protit by his wet experience and not attempt to preach again where hut service are not wanted and are made the subject of ridicule. As funny as the matter ap pealed a tbe time, tbe perpetrator are ashamed of their action rnd no one can be found who lent a band in the work. Press.
