ground that he insulted the country from
which he is accredited, and the people
he represents, 111 speeches delivered at
Boston, P.ngtaiid, and at i-Mitiburgh,
Scotland, August 2 an, I November 7,
respectively. AH attempts to induce
Bayard or his staff to discuss the matter

But Mr. Bayard's indiscretion was so de

SECOND ANNUAL CONVENTION
Of the Douglas County W, C. T. U.
Held nt Drain.
Tho delegates for tho county conven
tion left Itoschurg on Iho local Thursday
morning, December 6th, eleven in all, in
haling county officers and medal con
testants. Tho weather was all that
could he dcMicd, making the trip very
enjoyable. Mrs. Helen D. Harford,
state lecturer, camo 011 at Yoncalla.
hen wo arrived at Draiu a delegation
from their union escorted ub to tho M.
Church which was very beautifully
ccorated with evergreen and bunting.
After dovotions Mrs. Harford told the
convention that the president, Mrs.
ewett of Gardiner, was unable to be
present owing lo illness, and all our
hearts went out to God in prayer for her.
rs. Harford was voted a member of the
convention and took the chair.
Tho work of the morning consisted of
10 appointing of committees and u con
roace of workers. Tho noontide hour
prayer was conducted by Mrs. Kennedy
of Kosoburg and was very helpful. In
ic afternoon tho report of county officers
ud roHjrts from local unions were read,
hich were highly comiceudable, show-
ug gold work doue along their liueu.
Five local unions were heard from, viz:
Kosoburg, Edeubower, Myrtle Creek,
ardiuer and Drain. Tbe Loyal Tem-
perauce legion work was also included
tho reports. Kosoburg, Edrnluwer
and Gardiner having flourishing L. T.
a The county was organized last
ear Willi only two unions, aud alter
ayiug expenses of convention Micro were
hut ten cents iu the treasury. This year
10 finances were far in advance after
carrying ou 11 much greater work. Mrs.
Jerry, county organizer, organized four
new unions within (tie year, viz: hdeu
bjwer. West Kosebug. Myrtle Creek and
Camas Valley but West Koseburg and
'.uuos Vulluy failed to report to conven
tion Drain was organized by Mrs.
uiuh, national org in z ::.
The reodiugof rejiorts was followed by
very instructive school of methods by
is. Harford, iu which she w-t forth the
fans for local work very concisely.
Mr, Anna Sncer of Gardiner prepared
nd read a very edifying paper entitled
Franchise a Itightnr a Privilege." She
arvued if franchise isa right, whv not
xteml it, if but one woman demands it?
rid if a privilege, why not give it to
100 who wish to bo privileged? But
c say it h a right aud wo can see the
first llu:h of the day that will usher in
pial suffrage.
The exercises of the eyrning were very
mtt resting, the music being very fine,
Miss Warner, professor of music in the
Draiu Normal school, having it in charge.
The address of welcome given by Mrs.
Law of Drain was very cordial, and the
response by Mrs. btuitu ot Koseburg
was very pleasing. Miss Bollmau of

A Haunted House.
Tbe house at the southwest corner of
Seventh and Oak streets has been the
subject of a peculiar phenomenon for the
past several days, says tho Eugene
Guard, and the inmates have come to
the conclusion that it is haunted.
For several nights past, at different
times, tho inmates have heard mysteri
ous rappiugs, which they were unable to
account for. These peculiar rappings
have also been heard at different times
by visitors, and they have been kept up
with such persistency and such start
ling reality that the inmates are becom
ing considerably alarmed, and, should
the rappings continue, it is more tbaa
lisely they will vacate the establishment
quite soon.
The rappings are usually heard oa the
head of the bed, after the iamates of the
house have retired for the night. They
are quite distinct and make a continua
tion of sounds, as if some person might
be etriking bis knuckles on the head
boards of tbe bed several times in sue
cessioo. These sounds occur at irregular
intervals.
A few nights ago, after tbe occupants
had retired, these peculiar rappings were
heard. They were repeated several
times on the head of of the bed, aad the
inmates finally became alarmed to such
an extent that they got up and went
into another room, where they again re
tired for the night. But the rappiugs
followed them, and were repeated as
soon as they laid down. The inmates
were now thoroughly frightened by the
mysterious proceedings, and, getting up
aad lighting a lamp, remained up the
rest of the bight.
