It is a singular fact that many of the wells and springs in Hose burg and vicinity have lately gone dry, which have never failed be fore. As this is the first week in Denemlier. 7 this seems an exceptional phenomenon. The court house is undergoing repairs. It is receiving a fresh coat of paint, which is v-jry much needed. For this reason the tem perance lecture which we advertised to be held at the court house on last Saturday, was he'd at the Piesbyttrian church. . Hon. James Chenowcth, merchant o Oakland, was in the city yesterday. Messrs. Chenoweth & Stearns rre doing a thriving business in the mercantil line, at the old stand of R. Smith & Co., in Oakland, Doug- Jas county, Oregon. Father Heinrich returned Thursday even ing from an extended trip to the coast couu- ties, where he has been looking after his charge. The Father is looking hearty and reports a pleaeane trip and fine weather for tkis season of the year. H. 0. Ls.ng, who is engaged in collecting information for Walling's History of South ern Oretron, has returned to Roseburg and will be found at his roms on Jackson street, by all persons who have any information to communicate concarning the early settlement of this section. The Goodtcmplars of Roseburg will give an exhibitian at the Grange hall, on Tuesday evening, the 11th of December. Judging from the program the entertainment will be a grand affair, consisting of recitations, dra mas, comiqucs, and music, aU by home tal ent, which should be encouraged. No one should lose the opportunity of hearing them. John Albert Norman, a lad of twelve years, left Anamosi, Iowa, on Weduesdayj November 28th, and arrived in Roseburg on Tuesday evening, being only six days on the way. Albert is a step-son of our Democratic friend John Farquar. is a bright and intelli gent lad and his trip furnishes proof that the Northern Pacitic takes good care of all those entrusted to their charge. At a meeting of Philetarian Lodge of I. 0. O. F., held at their hall in Roseburg, Decem ber , 1SS3, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: N. G., A. C. Marks; V. G.. W. N. Moore; Secretary, E. G. Hursh; Treasurer. L. Belfils. The newly elected officers will be installed at the meet ing of the lodge to be held on Saturday, January 5, 1S34. James McCart', section boss on the rail road, received severe injuries last Tuesday evening, when returning with the handcar, between Winchester and Roseburg they were running at a hign rate of speed, when the wheels came in contact with something which' caused the car to jump the track, throwing Mr. McCarty out and falling ajzainst him and iojuring him severely in the 6ide, Lack and leg. We sincerely hope that his iujunes may not prove serious and that he may soon recover. He is a sober, indus trious citizen and has been in the employ of the company for many years. Prof. Lconi gave the citizens f Roseburg an exhibition of his wonderful skill as a tight rope performer, Thursday afternoon. His rope is stretched across Jacksoa street, from the top of Hogan's and Morgan's stores where he will give an exhibition this (Fri day) afternoon. The Professor will on Sat urday afternoon perform the daring feat of walking across on the wire cable over the Umpqua river at Owens' ferry, a distance of COO feet, .

The Pirat Permanent Settlement of Oo- quilie Valley- Coquille City Herald. Twenty -five years ago Dr. Henry Hermann landed on the Coquille river with the first arrivals of the Baltimore - i - colony. Being at once enraptured with the dense and unbroken forests of splen did timber stretching from the head waters to the sea; with the placid and mirror-like tide water ebbins and flow- ing for fifty miles; and then with the Ttrfila Crtil anil nisliira nnntrir v, latter extending from upper tide water in luxuriant grassy prairies almost to Port Orford, he concluded to make per- manent settlement arid to end the rest of his davs in this beautiful valley. He returned to' Baltimore city in the followirg swing of 1S59. In a few weeks a large number of business men with their families prepared to return with him, and forsaking the comforts and gayeties of city life ta encounter the. privations and stern realities of forest life in Oregon. On the 10th dly of May, 1559, they all arrived in San Francisco on the steamer "Uncle Sam"j from New York and on May 23d landed at Port Orford' What follows we Rre permitted to ouote from an old letter written by Dr Hermann himself over 24 years ago, and bein- written by himself and in the midst of tUo scenes which it do- at meal time, received his lifeless re scribes, can be relied j on s authentic mains, and mourned their, untimely loss and to be valued as a part of our earli- at a moaient when h had selected a est history ! beautiful location for his future perma- "Youmav imagine when an emi- ent home.

'After landing at Port Orford May 28. aS59 we en-ased the teams to bring the families, baggage and pro- berry shrubbery and vines I had ship visions alonK the beach of the PaciEc ped from Sacramento nurseries, but the ocean to the mouth of the Coquille riv- er. while I started iimmedilv ovr the mountains, 45 miles distant, to the river and sent back horses to Port Or- ford to pack in part of my coods for im- immediate use; then procured two boats on tide water, five miles below my place; went down the river 56 miles to the mouth and arrived at midni-ht be- fore the families had arrived from Port tu: :. v, i,i J.UI3 t-ii uuituua luuro u y liiuu t " 1 and water I made in three days. I found the whole nartv in tho best of spirits, though some of the ladies and children had their faces blistered and sunburnt, the effects both of northwest wind and the sun jby traveling on the beach. "When wo got all the families, bag gage and indLsperisable3 in the boats we rowed up the beautiful Coquille river, favored with the finest of weath er, the evergreen trees, the grassy banks, the placid waters, all combining " i , ii , , i ; K 1 to create in us the most iovous entliu 1 siasm. with this our introduction to our pioneer home. The first ninht we landed at Myrtle Grove farm, then but O recently settled by "Doc" Lowe, who was then encamped in company with his brother "Pate." Here we were cor dially welcomed by the kind families of the Messrs. Lowe, and hospitably en tertained at their forest camp. Start- ing tho following day we should have react ed our destination, and arrived in ' the best of humor, had it not been by death from drowning of one of Mi- Schroeder's son, (William). This mar- red all future enjoyment of the trip, now so near its ending, and cast a gloom and grief over the whole partyf all showing deep-felt sympathy. ilhm . i i i i "1 he two boats had become -sepa- rated, and the one from which the acci. , . , , ., , , . . ,TT dent happened, was a mile behind. We ' ' ' had landed to take dinner at Cunning- ham's cabin, and were awaiting the ar , t, rival of the other boat I was stand. ing on the lookout, uneasy with fore- bodinffthat some sad accident mieht have caused the long delay, for I knew that none of the party managing the boat had any experience in boating. "You may imagine my feelings when I saw the boat nearing the shore and my son Binger lying apparently lifeless and stretched out iu the boat. I soon heard the whole sad story. The boat was loaded with baggage and provis ions; William Schroeder was sitting en a pile of carpet bags and in a drowsy condition fell overboard. Schroeder and Pagels, not experienced in boating. their minds in a state of consternation and distressed excitement, instead .of rowing towards the drowning boy and reaching him an oar, pulled off. In this dilemma Binger jumped over board and swam to the rescue of the boy; but unacquainted how to approach a drowning person in the' last death struggle, was caught in the death grip around his neck, pulled down and stink at once to the bottom of the river. He remain cd near three unnute3 under. wa ter, before he succeeded in freeing him self from Willie's death embrace, ard then exhausted reached the surface of the water and saved himselt ba a snag' from which he was taken in the boat I carried hiua in my arms into Cun ningham's long cabin at the landing, and exhausted and almost lifeless as he appealed, by applying the proper re- storatives in course of six Hours 1- tiaa the pleasure of knowing him out of danger. After an unsuccessful search f0r tne drowned boy, (who was tound seventeen days after and buried on his father's claim) we pursued our sad journey the following day and reached our destination on the south fork, "While still mourning with our re- Upected friend Schroeder and his be waved family, it was not over one week after, that we had to deplore another unexpected loss in one of the wo-thiest meu of our Party a Sir.

J. O. BOOTH. Yoncalla, Nov. 20, 1883. FE02I OAKLAND. Sunshire and shower. Christmas is near at hand. Stephens amateurs are progrersing. City election is over and all are pleased. No sickness of any consequence to report. : The mazic lantern fiend has not made his appearance. Ben Manning, who has been in the employ of the N. P. R. R, is now vis iting friends and relatives at this place. The'alarm of fi e was bounded here on Monday ' evening, but the flames were soon subdued and no damage of any consequence resulted. The winter term of the Oakland acad emy has a large attendance, and the school is in a prosperous condition. Many of the Pioneers have returned from their, eastern tour, satisfied that the country west of the mountains is far superior to the land of their childhood. Our nocturnal artist and bill sticker has made a few reports lately, but news in his line are scarce and he is unable to ffive us much information. The entertainment given last week jfor the benefit of the Baptist church was a complete success, and those who participated in the exercises performed their parts well. Our singing school has a good attend ance, and our efficient t9acher. Prof. Young is endeavoring to improve the vocal stamina of those attending. We hope his efforts may be attended with success Divine services were held in the M, E. church last Sabbath by Rev. Suiick, of Roseburg. The attendance was large and many were reminded that their career in this world had been reck less and immoral. Our city election passed off quietly last Monday and the whisky tick at, so called was elected by a handsome major ity. Our newly elected officers are, Re corder, J. H. Shupe; Marshal, Jno. Beckley; Trustees, A, C. Young, J. C. Hutchinson, G. A. Taylor, Garry Young and George Bair. Treasurer, Z. Dim mick. The parties elected are substan tial men and will give general satisfac tion. . We are infected by two or three par ties who imagine that nature has favored them dy implanting in their" sickly minds an overplus of knowledge, and they are continually endeav oring to impart their knowledge to par ties who may have ben accidentally thrown in their society. Owing to their ignorant condition they, like others in a demented state cannot be taught to stav in their proper element, but are continually, by their idiotic in timacy annoyiny those who are far su perior to them in every respect 51. 51. J. Commissioner TVIcFarland, of the gen. eral land office, being interviewed in Washington on the subject of land frauds, said: The principal operators aie persons largely engaged in the timber business, "settler" being a convenient myth. A class organized to secure timber lands in California, Oregon, Nevada and Washington Territory. That class discloses a combination of large capitalists, English as well as American, to obtain a title to immense tracts o timber lands by obtaining men, women and children to swear to false affidavits. But they have made their entries as required by law for their use and benefit, not for speculation. The price paid for. sets of false entry papers range, according to report, from $50 to SI 00. The gov ernment gels $2.50 per acre for land perhaps worth ten times its cost to spec ulation The Forty-seventh Congress prided itself upon having accomplished two great public enterprises: one was the tariff bill and the other the settlement of the Mormon question. Both are now declared to be flat failures. Judge Kelley is dissatisfied with the one, and Judffe Edmunds disgusted with the other. The Requblican genius for states manship has departed and it is time to et the democracy try its hpnd. Will C. King delivered a lecture on tem perance last Saturday and Sunday night at the Pre8hyterian church. The andience was not eo large on Saturday night as it should have been, owing to the fact that there were other entertainment which attracted many of the young people, Sunday night the church was well filled, with an attentive and highly appreciative audience. Mr. King is an earnest and eloquent speaker and vividly portrayed the evils of . the liquor traffic, in a calm and dispassionate manner, which made his argument all the more forcible. Mr, King took the ground of absolute prohibition and yet admitted its impracticability until public sentiment was educated up to that standard. He claimed that the time would soon come when the causo of temperance would triumph. The railroad company have an undoubted right to give any name they choose to their stations, but soma regard should be paid to the nomenclature that has existed for forty yean. In going through southern Oregon the officers ssem to believe they are pas8in through an undiscovered country aud are giving new names to the places which are already fixed in the hutory of the country. For instance, Wolf creek has ben changed to Altnadeu. If one of the old settlers on Wolf ereek, who saw the Indians hung at the Six-bit house, was aboard the train, the brakeman's cry of Almaden would convey no meaning and he would probably stay on board until put off by the conductor. At newpointJtnew names are permissible, but we do pretest against giving n w names to the old landmarks. .Railroad Notes. On last Saturday, December 1st, the pas. senger train of the Oregon and Transconti nental railroad made the first trip to Grant's Pass, which will be the terminal point unto1 the road is completed, to Ashland. The oc casion was one of considerable interest to the citizens of Glendale, who lost the pecuniary benefit of the terminus, and those of Grant's Pass who were about to receive it for a few months. We learn that quite a concourse of people were collected to receive the train. many of whom had never seen a railroad. Under the present arrangment the evening train from Roseburg arrires at Grant's Pass at 20 a. M., and leaves on the return trip at 10 e'clock v. M. Passengers for the south go by rail to the new terminus, where they take the stage, but the mail is still conveyed from Glendale by the stage company, in or der to supply way postoffices for which no arrangement has "yet been made with the railroad company. Wells, Fargo '& Co. have discontinued their offices at Glendale and Wolf creek, but have an office at Grant's Pass. The new terminus has quite a boom at present, business and dwelling houses be; ing constructed in every direction. The town is so situated with reference to Jose, phine county and the surrounding country that it is likely to become an important station, after the road is completed to Ash land.
