Circuit Court Proceedings.
In the circuit court the case of Allen
vs. Sargeant et al. occupied the court all
day Saturday up till nearly 11 o'clock p.
m. when' it was argued ably by Messrs.
Huntington and Wilson for the defen
dants and Judge A. S: Bennett for the
plaintiff. rThe jury agreed upon a ver
dict at about 4 o'clock : Sunday morning
awarding f 300 to the plaintiff.
The man Lawsen who pleaded guilty
to having committed a rape upon the
person of Mrs. Poorman, an old lady
of over 70 years of age was brought be
fore the court this morning to receive
sentence. ' Judge Bradshaw in order to
become informed as to the depth of the
man's guilt had Mrs. Poorman put on
the stand who briefly told the court how
the brute had broken into her room dur
ing the' night and committed the crime.
Dr. O. D. Doan testified as : to the con
dition in which he found the person of
the old lady the morning after. In pas
sing sentence Judge Bradshaw said, "I
cannot conceive of any crime more ser
ious than the one with which you stand
charged. The law has given 'me a wide
range in-the matter of punishment but
our offense has gone to the ut most
limits of imfamy. A big stout man
nice you,- Dreaiung into tne room of a
frail lonely old woman, and perpetrating
the crime you have committed deserves
no leniency. -The limits of the court's
leniency in your case have been fixed by
the legislature." The judge then sen
tenced Lawsen to twenty years in the
state pententiary. - rThe sentence -is per
fectly satisfactory far as the court is con
cerned, the only , regret..being that, the
law did not permit the judge to send the
brute np for life.
. - The case of the state vs. Wm. Jordan,
charged with" horse stealing, was taken
up this . forenoon and is occupying the
court as we go to press.
". ! ' A Maw Paper at Dufur.
Dufur is going to have a new. paper.
The plant is on the way and the time of
its first issue will be announced in -due
time.. Jtls.jtheMonmouth Democrat
rediviTv.st.but what name it may assume
up here we have. not yet learned.'-'It; is
to be democratic, so our informant says,
as its proprietor was advised that as the
county was now without a democratic
paper there might be a good .field for a
new journal of that political faith. We
tell the story as -we heard it, but the
Chronicle thinks this last statement is
a hard hit at the Sun. - The Chronicle
believe; in. ; two ; parties. The:. one is
needed to watch the other. As it is the
Timet-MounlaiTuer is republican ;whn it
19 not mugwump. -Now let -us have a
rattling good democratic paper out at
Dufur and the Chronicle will preserve
the happy balance of truth between the
both. '

A Sort of Joint Proposal.
A short time'since, at a wedding in
South Carolina, -a lawyer 'moved that
one man should be elected as president;
that this president should be sworn to
keep secret all the communications that
should be forwarded to him in his official
capacity that night ; that each unmarried
gentleman or lady should write "his or
her name on a piece of paper, and under
it place the name of the person they
wished to marry, then hand it to the
president for inspection, and if any lady
and gentleman had "reciprocally chosen
each other the president was to inform
each of the result, and the names of those
who had not been reciprocal in their
choice were to be kept entirely secret.
After the appointment of the president
communications were accordingly
handed up to the chair. It was found
that twelve young ladies and gentlemen
had made reciprocal" choices, and eleven
of the twelve matches were solemnized.
A widow with two girls married . a
widowerer with two boys, and had a
second family by her new husband.
When a terrible rumpus was heard in
the nursery one day the nevous husband
shouted upstairs : "Whatever is the
matter? The little wife answered
sweetly over the balusters : "It's only
my children and your children having
a row with our children, dear?''-
A boy of seventeen and a girl of thir
teen were married at Columbia, Mo.,
the other day. Among the wedding
gifts were a doll and a Flobert rifle.
