At the wedding, among the congratulatory missives read, was a telegram from St. Louis saying:. "Ac cept the congratulations of the wEoIbJ Damm family. H. S. Turner, of the Dufur Dispatch.ii in the city today, attending . to business matters. - lie says that the people of Dufur are fully asinterested in bowling as they are in this city. His clubrooms . have a good attendance, and it is ft wonder that some one did not think of building club rooms in that town long ego. 7- i. un me evening ot jjecemDer Z4ttt"Tne South Before the War" will be put onl at the Vogt opera house" in this city. 1 This play has been well received in ev ' ery city in the country, and comeB well recommended bv the press and the 1 people. It will be here on Christmas eve, which will give everyone an op portunity to spend the occasion in the merriest kind of a way, since it is very laughable throughout. The work of putting the fa mace into the new Lutheran church building is about done, and it will be but a short lime until it will be ready to receive the furniture,' which has already been or dered. After the furniture arrives it will have to be re-painted, which, owing to the condition cf the weather at pres ent, will take some time. About Feb ruary 15tb, at the very latest date, this church will be ready for dedication. Joseph Knox ot Hood River is in the citv today. He informs us that a new road is to be run from Tucker's mill south, intersecting the old road at Lan ds' place, and leading into the Mt. Hood country to Cloud Cap Inn. By this road several bad hills will be avoid ed and it will make a difference of sev eral miles in distance, making it easier to reach the Inn from Hood River. As much encouragement is offered, there is no doubt that the road will be completed before the summer's traffic begi One of A. M. Williams' windows is dressed in a very appropriate Christmas attire. The shepherds are represented herding their flocks on the mountains, and above is the angel informing them of the birth of the Savior. The back ground is draped with a beautiful dis play of handkerchiefs, while the angel, the shepherds, and in fact everything in the window, except the sheep, are neat ly attired in the same articles. Mr. Jensen, the artist who arranged the window, is very original in his ideas, and he uses them to a good advantage. The small boys and gins are excep tionally lucky, since toda is Saturday and in order to enjoy th coasting they are not forced to play . hookey from "cbool. We notice orae thing, and that is that this coasting proposition is some thing like the circu deal, wheie older people who want ta see the show, go in order to gratify yie desires of the chil dren, as they expess it, when they are roaiiy goiog lortneir own beneht. So it is with coastiag; if they want to en joy this diversion they eay they go to see that the little folks do not get hurt L. J. Adams, brother-in-law of Al Coolidge, jr., recently killed by the Van tPelts, returned' to Salem yesterday from jroia iseacn, uurry county. Jde "was :here a few days, looking after property ntereets, and. was accompanied by Joseph Cavanaugh. They report the Van Pelts are sot and have not been nfined in jail. On reaching Gold each at 10 o'clock Sunday night, De- GERMAN EMBASSY'S INQUIRY. For the Antecedent of Rohan Pan! Ifranz de The imperial ; German embassy at Washington addressed a letter to Gover nor Lord, making inquiry aB to the "rec ord and antecedents of the person styling himself Paul .Franz de Rohun, who is believed by the German authorities to be identical with the swindler "who ap peared about two years ago at Tacoma and Portland, where he styled himself a bishop, and subsequently served a term in jail at Astoria. It is so long ago since the hogus bish op operated here that the police have altogether lost sight of him, and they are at the present moment, in no position to furnish any information concerning this man. beyond that which is of notorious public record. That he at some time must have studied for the Catholic clergy is an indisputable fact, else he could not have eo successfully imposed on Archbishop Gross and lesser officials of the Catholic church. . He was a man of superior education, striking personality and a plausibility of anner which conspired to infuse con- dence in his victims. But the tnost ysteriona phase in connection with is career, when his learning and natu ral attributes are considered, is that his rascalities were of the petty larceny or der, whereas he bad all the requisites to render him successful as a confidence operator of the highest order. It is intimated that this bogus priest belongs to a noble German family, and hat at one time be was an officer in the German army. But what prompted nim o leave the Fatherland and come to this country in the guise ot a priest cannot be ascertained. . " . However, the fact that the German embassy is manifesting eo much interest in the eo-called Paul Fracz de Rohan, as to institute inquiries respecting him, indicates that he is a person of more im portance than he appeared to be here, or possibly that Kaiser Wilhelm's an thorities may have more, use .for him than had the Americans. - Seal Kstate Transactions. camber 5.

" In . the trial of Allen Logan in Dallas lait week, on the charge of murdering Enoch Sylvester, the head of the dead man was produced in court. The prose cution secured identification of the grew some piece of evidence, and showed the jury fractures in the back part of the skull sufficient to cause death. The de fense, however, produced as witnesses three of the physicians who had been present at the post-mortem, and estab lished that the cartful examination these physicians bad made was with special referenca to establish the fact of whether or not the blow delivered by Logan had fractured the tkull, and each swore pos itively that tk the post-mortem no such fractures were to be found. The bead turned out to be a booineranz for the prosecution, and It probably contributed to the verdict in Logan's favor.
