A Golden Wuuiiinu, "ProfessorT. II. Crawford will leave thU week for his home at Brownsville," says tlie Portland JVews, "as on Tuesday next the fiftieth anniversary or golden wedding of his father and inothen Dr. R. H. and Mrs. Crawford, will be held On this occasion there will be a family re union, at which the two sons and two daughters of this aged couple will be pres. cnt. The family has been in Oregon for twenty-six years. A curions fact In con nectlon with this wedding anniversary Is this: A short time since rrolessor L.raw ford learned that Rev. D. N. Stewart, the minister who had married his father and mother, was still alive, and wrote to him at Rushville, Rush county, Indiana, to learn if he was the same party. Rushville is the place where the wedding took place. A letter has been received by Mr. Craw ford, In which Rev. Stewart states that he remembers the circumstance quite well. I le also stated that in the little over fifty years he had been minister, he had married 963 couples. The Crawford wedding, there fore, must have been among the first per formed. Worse than in Albany. Mr. and Mrs. G. I. La Dow returned from the moun tains on last evening's train. They were not yet ready to leave the mountains, but were compelled to by the force of circum stances, which the East Oregonian will rise to explain. '1 here were camping out above Mikecha with A. D. SUM man and wife. Last Sunday night, while the whole party were wrapped in peaceful slumber, a stray ing bovine found their camp, and proceed ed at once to devour the flour, bacon and other provisions of the party, together with as much of their wardrobe as she could find, in a very affectionate manner. Mr. and Mrs. La Dow were the heaviest sufferers, and, being now possessed of nothing to eat and very little to wear, their immediate retreat from the mountains be came necessary." E. O. Public Peace. The case of the city against N. A. Blodgetttried yesterday was for disorderly conduct, which consisted in the abusive language used. The use of the abusive language was not questioned. Whether it was such as to disturb the pub lic peace was the question with the jury, and it seems thev thought it wasn't. It is pretty certain It has disturbed Prof. Reid's public peace considerably. In this connec tion It is humorous to hear the different plans different men would adopt to get even with a person who would call them "names" about every time he should meet them. A Runaway. About eleven o'clock to day a drummer and driver from Johnny Schmeer's livery stable were coming from Coryal'.is on the WcJt Side when the team became frightened at a hand car that ap peared an the railroad track as they turned a corner about two miles from here,and ran away. The buggy was turned towards China and both men thrown out. The driyer was dragged some distance and con siderably bruised ; but the traveling man . "was uninjured. The team ran until stop ped several hundred rods this side of the accident. The top of the buggy was ruined. Steam Laundry. J. C. Murray, lately from Minnesota, is in the city, looking out a locality In which to establish a steam laundry. Mr. Murray has been to South ern Oregon as well as to many points throughout the Willamette Valley and has arrived at the conclusion that Albany is the most desirable place in which to locate. He is Interviewing our citizens on the mat ter of locating a steam laundry here and is receiving mucn encouragement. Died. Charles Roth, at his residence one mile north of Harrisburg, on Tuesday, August 14th, 188S. Mr. Roth settled on nls farm near Harrisburg in a very early day, and has lived a very exemnlarv life. Very few men have so many friends and so zew enemies. Careless People. A Portland woman afrwunys ago while working In her yard left a purse containing about $25 on her front porch. On going for it, afterhaving been in the house it was gone. Careless people are nearly always seen near' the smaii ena ui ine norn. Sheep. Dr. J. L. Hill proposes to bring 1 500 sheep from Crook to Linn county and let them out on shares in such numbers as farmers can attend to. Probably In icato 200 lots. There will no doubt be plenty of farmers willing to 'take a few under such an arrangement. A Chinese Democrat. Not all the Chinese are for Harrison. One of the al mond-eyed race was observed on the streets to-dav wearing a conspicuous Cleveland and Thurman badge with evident satisfac tion and pride. He would not tell who paid him or how much. Pendleton E. O. Ice cold Lemonade atKentons this evening. Road to the Minus. ".Mr. Wulker, an engineer, has returned from an exploring expedition between the terminus of the graded but unrailcd portion of the Oregon Pacific railroad and the Bald Mountain mining distiict," says the Oregon City Courier. "He reports that the dUtancc be tween the railroad and the mines is 28 miles, and that a wagon road could be built over the route he picked out in three weeks' time. He used a one horse cart to haul the itn pedlmcnta on the journey, and but few ob structions of any account, such as fallen trees, were encountered the first 17 miles from the Oregon Pucilic. along the banks of the BrightcuhUHh. Thereafter the cart was abandoned. Mr. Walker, who has had experience In railroad building, be lieves that a branch could be built from the Oregon Pacific with a grade of not more man two Hundred tect to the mile. It Is a matter of importance that whereas the sur face rock hereabouts is uniformly of igne ous formation, in the Bald Mountain dis trict the igneous disappears, and more prim itive formations appear, in which super ficial ore veins are much more liable to prove true tissue veins. Tramps. They are here in large num bers, the pestiverous leeches, dirty, ragged, rough looking fellows. Last night three or four of them jumped on to the overland train while the occupants were taking their suppci, helped themselves to three valises and ran away with them. Acoupleyoung men who saw them started In pursuit, when they dropped two; but kept the otner winch proved to be the property ot Mr. R. D. Sanford, of Grant's Pass, and contained a few traveling articles. Speak ing of tramps, it is doing society a big in- justice to feed them at all. Don't give a crust. Begging is their business, and it is time it was broken up. Albany can set an example that will rid the city of this scrubby element. As soon as they display the least sign of vagrancy they should be arrested and put to work with ball and chain. One or two cases might cost a lit tle ; but In a few months we wouldn't have any cases. Let's experiment. Sii.etz Agency Jo Ben Lane has been rcmov ed from the Siletz Agency and Mr D Gather, who has been Clerk there for two years appointed In his place. The Leader puts it as follows : "The removal of Mr Lane was caused by the trouble in the spring with the Indians. A govern ment surveyor ran away with a half-breed girl employed at the agency and the In dians blamed the agent for it. The trouble was fomented by persons outside of the agency under threats of personal harm by the Indians. Theclrl was sent to the school atChemawa. Mr Lane secured an Ivestl- tion of the matter br a special agent of tne government, ine result ot tne investi gation was a request for Mr Lane's resig nation. He went to Washington to vindicate himself but with no enect. Mr. uraay brother of the famous Georgia editor, is In dustrial teacher at the reservation." Married. On Aug. 15th, at St. Law rence Catholic Church, in Portland, by Rev. B. Orth, Mr. Daniel McAllen and Mis Anna Irene Hazlett, both of Portland The Eroom Is the senior member of the large dry goods house of McAllen & MC' Donald, cor. 3rd and Morrison St., and Is a popular young man. The bride has been for rears one of the most expert compos. ltors In Portland, recently working on the JVewi. one learned the art presen atlve tn the Democrat office In ltSSi-j, and the Democrat claps its hands at her good for tune. Anna is a young lady of pure char acter and ot a bright mind and Mr. mcai len Is to be congratulated on securing such a wite. Fiery Steed. On Wednesday, W. B. Scott obtained Custar's cart and horse Ui drive down to the lower end of the city. Arriving at his place of destination he drove the cart into a coral where he hitch ed the horse. There happened to be a nest of yellow-jackett where the horse was tied and they were not disposed to be disturbed so they made war upon the horse. The horse reared, plunged, broke loose, scamp' ered around the coral two or three times. finally broke away from the cart, jumped out of the enclosure, ran Into river in his fiery career, swam down ft a half mile. when he swam into tne nana wnicn was so steeo that the horse could not get out. Shovels and picks were obtained and the bank dug down and the horse taken out in fiery flight. Jealous. Eugene City is even jealous of our uncertain chance of getting a wool en mill. One of the papers talks in the following boyish style: "We understand that there Is talk of the Brownsville woolen mills be enlarged and removed to Albany, Whvnotto Eucene? We have many ad. vnntacres over any other point In the valley, and it only requires that a proper bonus be raised fh secure their location. The super intendent Is reported as saying thev would remove to Albany for $i;,oeo. We have no doubt but a small advance from this city would secure Its location here. Those Sharks. The following from the Yaquina Post shows how the Demo. cr at was fooled on Its shark story : "The fishermen, put in their big net Wednesday night at the docks, and they dln't run 300 feet before the net was full. In fact, too full. and the boys had to haul It in, when they discoved they had secured an Immense catch. The net contained no less than nine crreat usrlv sharks as wide-mouthed, live lV jodandles as one could desire." The Democrat said twelve, which was pretty close, for a newspaper on a nsh story. Boar di no. Mrs. Houck is now located just west of Cherry & Parkes foundry, where sne is prepared to tax weekly day boarders.
