Seductive Stranger Led to the Altar By the Maiden He Had Deceived. An unusual mani igp,which could nut but grate harshly upon the sensibilities of those who witness ed if, was solemnized at the Revere Houe yesterday afternoon. O. B. Wilskey, who had been arrested at Lebanon and brought to this city by Deputy Marshal J. A. Lamberson on a charge of seduc ing Miss C. H. Arnett, of that puce, was married to the latter in presence of the officer who had him in custody and a'few others. The circumstances surrounding the affair exhibit a shocking lack of decency and morality. Wilskey had been at Lebanon but two or tnree days, having come up the vauey iu a hack in company with two other young men, who were camped near that place. The girl, who is 17 years of age, had met him, and on Thursday even ing afier returning from church in company with her parents, step ped out of the house and went away with her lover. Where they went, or where they spnt tiie night, unless at the camp of the man who is now her husband, is not known, but next morning their camp was gone, and the lath er, who had boarded the train for Albany in search A his daughter, found her standing on the platform at Tallman. He compelled her to walk back to Lebanon with him, a distance of four miles. The constable had by this time .. .....1 ii.'n i . l i anenieu. v iisKev. ami lie was brou.-h tins i-irv Ti. oirl m.w! Ium- mother also came down yesterday afternoon. Tlie girl used language more forcible than cultured and quite unbecoming a. bride. She went to the court house, and rind ing eherilf Smith standing in front, asked him, ''Who is the boss of court house?'' Sheriff smith replied that sever al of the officials having head quarters there claimed to be "boss," and the young woman made known her errand by asking if Wilskey had procured a marriage license. The sheriff replied in the affirmative, when she said that was all right. "He has been try ing to get away from me," she said, "and now I have got him ar res ed and he must marry me or die." "You want to marry, do you?" suggest d the offic r. "You bet your life I do," was the stunning reply. She went away satisfied, and a little later they were united in marriage by Justice R. L. Dorris. The deluded girl's only desire seem ed to be to cover up her shame by marriage, and she seemed quite content piter the ceremony was performed. The whole affair was so revolting that it is difficult to tell where the censure most belongs. The girl and her mother returned to Leb anon n last night's train. It is not known whether they were ac companied by the wretch who was forced to niakereparation or not. WASlll.MiTO.V NCHs I t ttl- Washington, March 29.

Chinese pheasants are said to be very numerous in Polk county about Dallas. A pool is being made of property owners at Monmouth to make an offer donating town lots to any person who will erect thereon at least a f300 dwelling house or other building. The state board ol agriculture has added a novelty race to its at tractions next summer at Salem. The race is to be one mile heats. First, walking; second, trotting; third, running. Crop notes from all the different parts of Oregon, state that spring seeding is drawing to a close. In some portions of the state, especi ally in Eastern Oregon, considera ble grain was frozen out and had to be resown. This however is something quite unusual in Oregon. There is a perfect epidemic of measles in Salem now, says a Salem journal of late date. A leading physician of Salem gave it as his opinion that there were at least 500 cases of measles in Salem at the present time. The blue flag is hung out at nearly every other door and it looks like all in tended to take a turn. Fortunately there have been but a few fatal cases. Curry county has sent but one person totlie penitentiary in twenty years, and that was a Chinaman, sentenced to one year's imprison ment for horse stealing, although it was generally believed that he was innocent ot anv intentional i . ,. tlleU sa'3 :l Pa!er, With the ex ception of two or three temporary confinements for trivial offenses, the county jail has been unoccu pied for over ten years. They have no poor house and no pau pers. We doubt if another county in the state can show as good a record. The captains and pilots plying on the Columbia and Willamette rivers are about, to organize a union for the advancement of their mutual interests and' for their pro tection in case any disagreement regarding wages or amount of work should arise between them and steamboat owners or corporations. They have already held one meet ing loosing toward this organiza tion and another will be held short ly to complete it. The caprains and pilots are now about the only class of employed men not .yet organized, and they do not propose to be behind the times. An 01:1 Claim. Portland papers of recent date state that a suit has been com menced by parties in Indiana, Illinois and Minnesota against the jstate of the late Greenbury Smith, of Benton county. The plaintiff's claim to be. relatives of Alex. Smith, a brother of Greenbury. who died about 1850 possessed of a large fortune, which passed into the hands of Greenbury without due process of law. The suit is therefore brought for a division of the estate. The plaintiffs number some thirty, and have engaged the best legal talent in Portland to conduct the case.

To thk Editoji ok xhk Heralu: . After the great democratic round up on last Saturday I think it will be safe to let your readers know that there are a few staunch repub licans alive and eager for the fight in June next. On last Friday evening a large number of solid re publicans met in the city hall and organized a republican club. The following members were chosen as permanent officers of the organiza tions: President , J. Wassom ; first vice-president, A. Churchill; second vice-president, D. Andrews ; secretary, J. A. Roberts ; reasur er, G. W. Smith. A most har monious meeting was had, some good speeches were made and every one went home determined on electing at least three or four of the coming nominees of the repub lican party in June. Republicans, wake up from your lethargy, or ganize clubs in every precinct, go to the primaries and county con vention with a determination to win. The democrats cannot and shall not have everything their own way ! J. A. L. to t iiliz:: viii. tut. A Stupendous Scheme, the I'et Hobby of an i:u-:lisU iVoblcimui. Scribner's Magazine. A somewhat startling proposi tion in connection with the general subject of the transmission of energy to a distance by electricity was advanced by that eminent en gineer, the late Chnrles W. Seimens of Loudon, who, in 1877, expressed his conviction that by this means tht; euonnous energy of t;ie failing water at Niagara might be' trans ferred to New York City and there utilized for mechanical purposes. In 1879, Sir William Thompson, the electrician, publicly asserted his belief in the possibility, by means of an insuiated copper wire, half an inch in d:aineter, of taking 20,000 horse-power from water wheels driven by the fails, inu of delivering 21,000 horse-power a a distance of 300 statute mifes. He estimated that the cost of eoppsr for the line wouid b.; less than .$15 per horse power of energy actually delivered at the remote station. While Sir William may I be regarded as somewhat of an enthusiast, and has occasion-illy manifested a tendency to prcstin matters of this kind in a sensa tionai light, yet it cannot be looked ution as especialiy improbable that the realization of this apparently chimerical project will be witness ed by persons now living. A series of extensive and costly experiments of this character have beeu zeale'isiy prosecuted within me last few years by M. Marcel Deprez, a French electrical en gineer, who was fortunate enough' to obtain the financial assistance ol the Rothschilds. The results at tained have been much criticis; d by tiie profession in other countries, but it seems indisputable that n at least one occasion more hau thirty-live horse-poAer was deliver ed at the terminal ot a COIMUCfor! seventy miles iu length, sixty two horse-power having been applied to drive tlie generator, snowing a total loss ot encr-ry approximating per cent, a result which cannot looked upon as unsatisfactory. 43 be 1HK.
