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.

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.
