MARRIED. LEE RENNIE At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Durlingame, in Pomerov, W. T., Nov. 16, 1S87. by Kev. Mr. Wills, V. H. Lee, of Pomeroy, and Miss Nellie M. Kennie,-of Salem, Oregon. The groom is a son of Hon. KeuKen Lee, of the Waldo Hills, and the family of the bride resides in South Salem. A writer in the Popular Science News gives the following remedy for poison oak: "I have always been susceptible to ths poison of ivy and oak so as to give me great annoyance nnleos it is imme diately checked on its first appearance. This, common washing aoda accom plishes for me if properly applied. I make the application by saturating a idice of loaf-bread with water, then covering onesarface with soda and applvina to the eruption, the soda next to the flosh. When the bread is dried with the animal beat I drop the water on the outer side, so as to keep it thoroughly moistened, and dissolve the crystal xia in contact with the skin. This, yon will perceive, is merely a bread poultice the bread being a vehicle through whose moisture the soda reaches the humor. I find that washing or bathing with soda-water, even continuously, will not -suffice with me. r . i . i i . . mj nm requires ine neat ana moisture of the bread in order for the soda to act on ana neutralise the poison. I rarely nave neen to retain this aoda poultice or wore man tnirty minutes on any af fected part. No pain ensues. Formerly i suffered often for weeks, as the poison would spread all over my body. Now winy minute measure the duration of its exhibition." uotang Liniment EDES-SCANLOX In Salem, Or,, Wed nesday, rsov. 23, 1887, at 8 p m., at the parlors of St. Johns Catholic church, by Iiev. V. A. Capelle, MNs Louise B. Keanlon, of Oakland, Ca! , to Mr. Ed. N. Edes, of Salem. The j-eremony was berformed in the presence of immediate relatives only. An elegant wedding supper was partaken of at the residence of Mrs. Geo. A. Edes. on Gaiety Hill, and then the bride and groom were driven to their new home at 182 State street, recently fitted up for them. The announcement of the mar riage of two young people so favorably known as Miss Scanlon and Mr. Edes will be pleasant news to their legion of friends. The groom iseminently a Salem boy, and there is no one for whose happi ness a large circle of acquaintance in and out of Salem would" tender heartier wishes, while the bride, though a resident of the city but a vear or two, is not Ws esteemed.

This is a suit instituted by Keller to recover money from Bley on a contract for work performed in clearing a number of acres of land, lhe decision i tee It is oi no particular importance, bnt Judge Thayer denounces severely the conduct of two of respondent s attorneys, franc a. Jolly and E. Mendenball, in accompany ing without permission the jury, during the trial, to the scene of the performance of the contract. Their presence there would indicate an effort to prejudice the a . vwt i i mmas oi tne jury, ine juage atso re bukes the lower court for not allowing the motion of the appellant's counsel, made in the lower court, after the sup posed underhand proceeding on the part of the opposing counsel, to dismiss the lury and summon a new panel, now ever, be does not disturb the rinding ot the circuit court. I A. S. Kimball, resp., vs. John Moir et al.. apps.: judgment of the court be low modified : opinion by Strahan, J. fThis is an appeal from the judgment of the lower court, in which the plaintiff obtained judgment against the defendant for $5080, on a promissory note, with $508 additional as his attorneys' fees. The only question in this case is whether this court will enforce an agreement in a pro missory note to pay ten per cent on the amount due as attorney's fees. The de cision of the court is that it will not en force, in such cases, a contract lor a spe cif! amount, but only such as may be ad judged reasonable. Chas. Putnam, J. W. llamaker, J. 11.

Epps, appp., vs. J. II. Oatman, rosp.; appeal from Jackson; judgment of the court below affirmed ; opinion by Thayer, J. I lhis case is oi great importance as re gards legal practice. The court holds that in an action at law, when a crossbill has been filed and to which a demurrer has been sustained in the court below, an appeal from the judgment rendered in the original case does not bring before this court for review the ruling of the trial court on the demurrer to the cross bill. A party wishing to review the rul ing of the court on the demurrer to the cross bill must appeal from the decree rendered thereon. An appeal from a judgment at law does not bring up the ruling of the court on the demurrer to the cross bill. Held further, that if in such case it appear that persons other than the plaintiff in the cross bill have interests in the subject matter of the suit, the trial court should oider them to be made parties, so that a complete deter mination of the matters in controversy may be had. The court disproves of any narrow or technical rules as applied to parties in this connection, but thinks that all 'parties in interest should be brought before the court, so that a complete de termination of the matters in controversy may be had in this one suit. Charles Putnam et al., apps., vs. W. S. Webb, Sr., resp.; appeal from Klamath ; judgment of the court below affirmed ; opinion bv Mrahan, J. p ithoiit passing upon or considering the allgeged irregularities in the justice's and circuit courts, the court holds that plaintiff's complaint showed no equity upon which this court could act. It pre sented no sufficient reason why the prop erty adjudged to the present defendant had not been returned to him, and it looked like a plain attempt to take ad vantage of a legal technicality to perpe trate a wrong, lhis the court would not sanction or approve. The court applied the maxim, "lie who seeks equity must do equity."! W. J. Paul, app., vs. Louis and Martha Lamb, resps.; appeal from Klamath; argued and submitted. II. K.
