I. C. CHRISTENSEN, OF
LEXINGTON, IS MARRIED
Widow Courted by Mall Arrived In
Pendleton and Became His Bride
Correspondence of Over a Year Re
milled In a Match Sherman and
Morrow County Bachelors Import
ing their Wive from the East Mr.
Christensen and Bride are Both
Delighted with the Choice Made at
Iong Range.
Sherman and Morrow county bach
elors are Importing wives from the
east, because of the scarcity of mar
riageable girls In the short grass
counties of Oregon.
Yesterday P. c. Christensen, of
Lexington, a prosperous bachelor of
43, was married In this city to Mrs.
Nettie Bailey, of Norfolk. Va., whom
he had courted ami won by mall.
Mr Christensen was Introduced t.i
Mrs. Bailey by Mrs. Charles Rarnett.
of this city, some months acc.
through correspondence. Both Mr.
Christensen and Mrs. Bailey were
matrimonially Inclined.
The correspondence waxed fervent,
the proposal was flashed across the
continent, the acceptance was flashed
back, the date was fixed, the prosper
ous bachelor sent a ticket to his r.l
fianced, and the romantic story
reached a happy climax when Rev.
Robert Warner, of the M. E. ahurch,
performed , the wedding ceremony
Sunday, afternoon at the home of Mrs.
Charles Barnett.
Within the pant few years twelve
bachelors of Sherman and Morrow
counties have Imported wives from
the crowded eastern states, where
good single men are scarce and esti
mable widows and marriageable girls
are plentiful. .
It la not recorded whether Mr.
Christensen searched the Morrow
county foothills thoroughly before
sending east for a wife, but, at any
rate, he now has a wife in his lone,
ly home, and both Mr. and Mrs.
Christensen are supremely satised
with the bargain made at long range.
It required about a year's courtship
to convince both parties that they
were Intended 'for each other. It Is
almost 8,000 miles from Lexington,
Oregon, to Norfolk, Virginia, but love
knows neither distance nor difficulty
In Its resistless growth, and when the
bride and groom met In Pendleton
and gased upon each other for the
first time, both were happy in the
choice ITiey had made and there was
no delay In the wedding arrange
ments.
Mrs. Bailey goes to be the happy
mistress of a good home, as Mr.
Christensen Is a well-to-do farmer.
owning a large tract of land In Mor-
row county, near Lexington, and is an
Industrious, frugal man. He Is more
delighted than he can well express ut
the result of his courtship by mail.

CHITTIM BARK HOLD.
Carload of 20.000 Pounds Sold at 2)4
Onts Per Pound.
A carload of chlttim bark of 20.000
pounds was shipped East by Bog-Bess
& Co., Monday, having been sold to
pat-eixt mietlictne manufacturers at 4 H
cent per pound, says the Salem Jour
nal. This is considered cheap for
chltti-m bark, as It has been as high
as 18 cetrts within the pust few years.
ChltTtm bark, however. Is becoming
scarcer on the coast, owing to the fact
that peeling the bark kills the trees,
and than -very few trees have been set
out to meet the deficiency.
Some farmers have set branches
out on the hillsides -which are not
fitted for pasture or for plowing, but
the area of such planting Is consid
ered very small. Some dealers think
chlttim bark will be worth II a
pound within the next five years.
Most of the patent medicines made
for stomach. Sliver and kidney trouble
contain diluted essence of chlttim
bark, and the only part of the coun
try where this bark Is found In good
supply is west off 'the Cascade range of
mountains.

St. John's, N. F., Oct. II. New
foundland is holding a general elec
tion today, and the result Is awaited
with keen Interest In all circles. One
of the main Issues Involved In the

the province, it Is generally predicted
that the government party, headed by
Premier Bond, will be returned by
substantial majority. There are two
opposing organizations in the field one
headed by ex-Premier Whlteway, and
the other by ex-Premier Goodrldge.
