M E N tH U A N .
It becomes our sad duty this week to pay
the last tribute of respect to the character and
memory of one of the brightest ornaments it
has been the misfortune of this community to
lose. James Knox Polk Lewis, or as ho was
more frequently called by his familiars “ Jimmy
Polk" or smiply “ Jimmy,” was born in Old
Dallas, about a mile from the present town, on
the 12th of January, 1850, and was the young
est son of our esteemed fellow townsfolk J. H.
and Ellen Lewis. Having grown up in this
community ho was known to every one in it,
and beloved by all who knew him. His affabiL
ity and urbanity wefe almost proverbial, wbiH
his moral character Was unbhmished. He was
&n honored member of the order o f Good
Templars, and sometime la>t Summer be em
braced the Christian faith and joined the M.
E. Church South. He was, indeed, a most ex
. .
emP,ary young man and trie Christian. On
■ the 6th o f last January he was attacked with
T he L tceu I i .— Last Friday evening the Ly
ceum Association met to diacuss the merits of
the female suffrage question ; but as the attend
ance of members was rather slim the discussion
was very short—to the disappointment of nu
merous ladies and gentlemen who Were present
as visitors—and the Lyceum adjourned, with
out a decision, to meet again on the first Friday
in September, when the debate on the same
interesting Subject will be renewed. In con
nection with our remarks of last week relative
to this society, we would suggest, as an im
provement on their usual system, that when
they reassemble In the Fall they ofganize at a
mimic legislature. This will give each mem
ber dn opportunity of espousing the side of
each question that agrees with his convictions,
thus giving more earnestness to the debates
and encouraging study and research. Besides,
if properly con iucted, it will afford the mem
bers a means of fatnilarixing themselves with
parliamentary ru'es and usages—a very impor
tant acquirement to ambitious, aspiring young
men.
E asily G ulled .— Nearly every paper in
Oregon has published as fact a wonderful Mun-
chauscnish story originally gotten off by the
Uellvillo (111) Advocate, entitled “ Fifteen
Years With the Indians.” The hero o f the
fabrication is named James Gull, who, shortly
after marrying a girl named Mary Andrew
(merry-Andrew) started for California fifteen
ym rsago. This Gull was reported killed by
indiuns, and after mourning his death three
years, his wife (merry-Andrew) married a fel
low nurned Simsou Dunfor (done fo r). Gull
returned to his old home, after discovering un
treasures and relics of past civilization on the
plains of Colorado during his fifteen years ex
perience among the Indians, amj finds Mrs.
Gull-Dunfor the mother of eight children, one
of whom is bis ; thus furnishing another Enoch
Arden case for the benefit o f future poet laure
ates. The “ sell” is ingeniously gotten up, and
reflects more credit on the humor of its author
than the sharpness of the editors who have
been gulled by its palpable impossibilities.
