LOCAL RECQlvD. Rather Romantic. To-day CUranco 1'. Dixon stopped from the pjnitouti ary a free maa, Goy. l'ranoyeryostorday hiiviug com muted his sentence. Ho was sent up from Portland for a term of three yeara and besjan service in July, 1887. Ho was convicted of the embezzlement of $3000 fro n the C. 1". K., of which ocmpany he was the froight agent at Portland. When it was discovered I hat he was short in his accounts he fled to British Columbia and remained several months. During this time his young if secured a divorce. Remorse preyod upon the erring youog man to such an extent that be came to Portland and gave himself up and was sentenced as above. After his incarcera tion the wife came to this city to reside and immediately began working to secure his pardon. This she accomplished, snd they are now together. Ho sees the folly of his past life and starts again with good resolu tions, admitting that it is through the fidel ity and untiring energies of his divorced, though faithful, wife that the commutation was gi anted. The sequel is in a mwriage license being to-day issued by County Clerk Babcock to Clarence P Dixon and Miss Annie W Harbin. They are to be quietly married this evening and will leave hy to-morrow morning's trsiu for Nevada, where their fu ture lot will be cast. Salem Journal. Thanksgiving. All Thanksgiving days are quiet ones This is no exception. The rattle of knives and forks with turkey bones Is about all that breaks the stillness. To:iifght will be a socIjI at the W. C. T. U. Hall, which promises to be a fine affair. At the Opera House W. W. Crawford will give a ball( which will probably be well attended by people with fantastic toes. At the M. b. Church this morning interesting exercises were held. The follow ing was the pro gram : Anthem by choir. Heading of President and Governor's proclamation by Rev. Coinann. Hymn No. 8. Prayer by Rev. Trumbull. Reading(Scripturc lesson by Rev Condil: Sung by Male Quartet. Thanksgiving sermon by Rev Webb. Prayer by Rev Irvine. Collection for benefit of Ladies Aid Society. A Cool Woman-. Mrs. A. T. Hershner, of Corvallis, was In the stage recently rob bed nt Templcton, California. Besides herself and children were three gentlemen. Mrs. II. writes to her husband at Corvallis a graphic account of the exciting affair published in the Times. When the driver halted, on being ordered by the robber to io so, he told them there was a lady and her two children inside, to which the high wayman replied that he would not harm them but wanted the men to "pile out" and throw up their "props," which they very unhesitatingly did after making Mrs. Hershner the custodian of their watches and disposing of their money which was done In very short order. The robber then drew caps over their eyes and proceeded to 6carch them. He secured some loose change and then went to the coach door and suked Mrs. II. if she did not have their money, to which she replied "no sir." Mrs Hershner had about $30 in her purse, be sides the valuables entrusted to her by the other passengers and it was perhaps due to her courage and presence of mind that they cscahed the clutches of the tnief. The express boa" was about all that was gotten. Raymond McIlwaix. At the resi dence of Mr A B Mcllwain, at 10 o'clock this forenoon, Mr Walter H Raymond, as sistant secretary of the Albany Farmers' & Merchants' Insurance Company, and Miss Mamie Mcllwain, were united in marriage, Rev E R Prichard performing the cere mony. Though private it was a very nice and happy event. Mr and Mrs Raymond left on the noon train for a trip to Port land and the Sound country. The happy couple have the Democrat's best wishes for a long life of happiness and prosperity. Discontented. He was fresh from the Oregon Pacific front and had sold his time check for 15 per cent discount. In sten torian tones he advised a crowd of men near him to slip out of a country so blasted mean its to do things like that, and by this time he is probably on his way from the frying pan towards the fire. We know nothing about this case; but there are a great many men who spend their lives step ping out from under the influence of im position, and as a result they never have a cent ahead. Those who "stay with it" are the ones who don't I.ve to have time checks discounted for 15 per cent off. HUME AND ARHOAD. Turkey rules to day. Dates, figs, etc., at Pfciffer's.
