Editoii Entkrprisk : As I see notes oc
casionally in your valuable little paper
from all parts of the State except this
it might be of interest to some one to
know that there is such a place in the vi
cinity of the il unit Soda Springs. This
in a very healthy locality. Purest of
water, and freed io a great extent from
the fog that settles on the low lands which
we look down uiwn. and often presents
itielfas a vast ocan of water. This part of
inecoim rv east oi the noua springs, was
subjected to a very destructive tire
non.e twenty or thirty years itiro. and was
destroyed, or rather hardened, a irreater
portion of the timber, and a reat deal of
it litis fallen, and is decaying very last.
Feed for stock is splendid. The land pro
duces good wheat, oats, rye, etc., and the
bi'rry is larger and pluuier than
grows in many parts of the vulley. Veg
etables f all kinds do exceedingly well;
Tor quality and llavor, they are unsur
nasst.d" in Oreiron. Tune grasses of all
.kinds are excellent. The choice pieces of
the public domain are being taken by tln.se
who are entitled to a homestead, ami
uaiy of them are making quite a show ;
alwCthere is considerable good Iandtli.it
.belong to the Oregon tfc California Rail
road company that would make good
homes. Good ociety is found around
here upwards of forty scholars in the
district ; Sunday School in line progress;
preaching here'twice a month. You that

.Important Invention.
Wo were to-day shown the working
model of an invention of Mr. Theodore
Clark, foreman of the finishing room in
the factory, which we believe is destined
for tenerai introduction into all the
woolen mills in the country. It is ma
chinery designed to gaue ihe shrinkage
in goods so as to iudicau? to the operator
the exact operation of the fulling machine,
which never has been done beioiv. Tue
operator can, by means of the invention,
distribute the weight in duo proportion to
a given width, and thereby enable the
production of goods of equal and uni
form weight leaving nothing to guess
work as heretofore with the manipulation
of the fuller. We lielievu M r. Clark has
hit upon a very valuable invention, aod
we should be glad to see Theodore real
ize from the patent which he has applied
for. to iseeure him, in tho benefits to be
derived from the invention. Mr. F. C.
Miller constructed the model, and it
peaks highly of his workmanship, as it
as a very difficult machine to imitate In
tiie dimiautivo.

Heard From. The Corvallis Gazette of
last week has the following notice of a
former resident of this county, who fig
ured in our police court before his depart
ure: Hmrh McCauley, who nas neen in
Corvallis most of the time for the last six
months, a man of verv polite address,
and very particular to form no acquaint
ance except from the best of the society
of ovir citv, was arrested on Thursdav
evening on the complaint, of O P. Ja.v
cox, charged with the larceny of $2.50
from the drawer in the store of Sheppard
A Javcox, of this city. Ihe case was
tried before Mr. T. C. Alexander, Justice
of the Peace, of this city, and although the
offence could have been tried as a felonv,
yet the charge was for simple larceny, and
the defendant's counsel advised the trial
on that chanre instead of the more serious
one of larcenv from a store." The facts
brought out on the trial were that the
proecutor had missed money for several
weeks, and had suspected McCauley, and
on the evening of his arrest, had marked
several pieces of coin and placed them in
the till, and had officer Miller to watch
the drawer through a hole in the shelving
made for that purpose. Miller saw the
accused go to the drawer, pull it out
and put his hand in. On arresting him a
lew hours afterwards, two of the marked
coins A ere found in his possession. After
trial by jury, and the verdict of guilty
rendered, the defendant was sentenced to
thirty days' imprisonment in the county
jail. Mr. M. had taught school in this
county, and was at t'ie time out oi em
ployment. He has evidently been well
raised, and being, as we suppose, "broke,"
yielded to temptation.
' Married. Our young friend Jas. D.
McGowan,of Portland, was.mairied last
Thursday to Miss Lide H. Huntington, of
Cowlitz county, W. T. Jimmy was a resi
