SURED FOR ALBANY
As Far as Managers Are Con

ANOTHER PROPOSITION
HAS BEEN AGREED TO
Women of Albany Are to Post
Up on Matters to be Voted
Upon Soon.

All That Stands in Way of Con
tract is Pledging of Nominal
Sum by Merchants.
Continued from Tuesday, October 21
As far as Graduate Manager Dean H.
Walker, of the University of Oregon
and Dr. E. J. Stewart, director of
athletics at the O. A. C. are concern
ed, the staging o fthc big foothr,'.l
game between those two schools is
assurec for Albany on November 8.
This became definitely known this
afternoon following a conference dur
ing this morning between the two
managers and Billy Eagles, 'he man
behind the project for Albany.
The result of that conference, is
the introduction of a slightly differ
ent proposition than has heretofore
been submitted. It has met with the
approval of both sides and all that
now stands in the way for the sides
to sign up a contract, is the positive
assurance that a nominal sum of mon
ey can be collected towards defray
ing expenses from local merchants.
The proposition as tentatively
agreed to this morning, which iia-s
bom vir us My accepted, is regarded
a-i rv . lr tc both sides. It :s tii-.t
the local people place the field in
order by erecting bleachers for TOO
seating capacity, and m ivv the field
a short distance south. The football
managers agree to pay a cash sum out
of the gate receipts instead of five
per cent and arrange a fixed train
schedule. The schedule as stated will
be for two excursion trains from Cor-
vallis and Eugene. One from each
city is to arrive at noon bearing the
students and the other two to arrive
just prior to the tim-j scheduled for
the gi'me to start. The game is not
to commence until 3 o'clock. By this
time all of the Port'anJ trains will
have arrived. The managers further
agree that the excursion trains will
not depart from the city until some
time between 10 and 10:30 o'clock
p. m.
. The only thing that now stands in
ihe way for the drawing up of a con
tract to this effect, is the assurance
to a nominal sum to dciray the ex
pellees oi vicing the field in the 'ie
sired onifr.

ERNEST HORNBACK TO
REMARRY FORMER WIFE
I To discuss the measures that are
i to be voted upon at the coming spe-
meet next Monday afternoon in the
Commercial club parlors. Lverv laclv
of the city is urged to attend the meet
ing and become posted on the mat
ters that will be at issue.
The meeting is the result of many
women not knowing as much relative
to the measures as they would desire
and it is to the end that all desire
to vote intelligently and towards the
betterment of the state. This action
on the part of the women is re-
arded as very commendable and dem
onstrates the fact that the women of
Albany are awake to the times and
that they are taking interest in their
recent enfranchisements
Attorney Carl E. Sox has been en
gaged to address the meeting on
various measures, especially the ref
erendums and in doing so will explain
what they mean in detail, depicting
their merits in a non-partisan light.

A suit involving property rights,
growing out of family troubles with
growingout of family troubles with
the father, a paraletic, on nne side,
and his wife and nine children o
the other, came to one of the most
dramatic endings yesterday attern xn
that has been witnessed here.
The case was tried before Circuit
Judge Galloway. The plaintiff and
father, Joseph R. Godwin, was car
ried into the court room in a chair
by four men. Present in the court
room during the trial, were th. wife
and all but two children, the defend
ants in the case. As the taking of
testimony progressed, they plainly
showed their a) -onistic feel'ngs to
wards the plai... , with sneers as
witnesses in behalf of Godwin testi
fied. The story of Judge Galloway s
own life, coupled with a splendid
eulogy on family troubles in which
he told the defendants that they had
not considered the cross nature of the
plaintiff, as the result of his illness,
brought the case to its dramatic close,
after the taking of testimony and
without argument by attorneys So
pathetic and pronounced was the judge
m his appeal to tnem, tnat several oi
the defendants wept. The wife cross
ed the court room and walking un
steadily to where her husband sat,
bent over and tenderly embraced him,
sobbing openly. His eldest son,
whom a moment before, was so an
tagonistic to his father, lifre J him
from the chair and carried the in
valid in his aims out of the court
room. The result is that ah ot the
parties have returned to their homes
and will settle the case out oi centre.
Judge Galloway immediately dismiss
ed it.
The case was a peculiar one. In
the complaint Godwin claimed that
prior to August iwy, nc was Miner
inn from a stroke of paralysis. Fear
ing death, he claims, and wishing to
provide home and care during the
time he should live and assurance of
a respectable burial, the defendants
agreed that if he would deed them
each a parcel of land from a large
tract belonging to him, they would
carry out his wishes. The land was
deeded in parcels to each of the de
fendants. Later, it is claimed, the
defendants resorted to a course of
cruel treatment. Meantime Godwin
had somewhat regained his health. He
sought a decree from the court declar
ing him to be the owner ot all the
land he deeded to his family.
The defendants in the case were:
Priscilla Godwin, his wife, W. L. and
George and Nettie Scott and Jenny
Junky. Attorneys in the case were
M. V. Weatherford and N. M. New
port, for the plaintiff and H. fl. Hew
itt and S. M. Garland, for the de
fendants. At the conclusion of the taking'of
testimony, Judge Galloway sprang his
surprise. He icave a splendid eulogy
of family troubles, cited how the de
fendants had ill treated the plaintiff
in many respects, and how they had
not taken into consideration that his
cross nature was the result of illness.
The judge told how his own father
had suffered a stroke of paralysis,
how lie was cared for at home, and
how he died peacefully. The judge
told of many instances that would
substantiate his statements and on a
whole resorted to an eloquent pica.
