Wltt 1JK1NO A COLONY
To Locate in the "Sreenltorn" Uottom
on the Santiain ltlver.
Bey. S. E. Davis, formerly pastor of
the Evangelical church in Albany,
stated to r Herald reporter that he
would leave for Pennsylvania In a few
days, for the purpose of bringing out a
colony to locate on the bottom, lands
along the Santlam river, in what is
known as the "Greenhorn" country
above Sweet Home.
Mr, Davis has been corresponding In
reference to the matter, and will go to
Elvira, Union county, Pennsylvania,
where he will remain during the win
ter, arranging for the departure of the
colony in April next. He expects forty
or fifty families to join the colony,
which numbel can readily rind, homes
and good laud in the district named.
The land is yet unsurveyed, and has
valuable timber upon it. Mr. Davis
states that it is their intention to erect
a furniture factory and a saw mill and
convert some of the timber into a mar
ketable product.
. Rich coal deposits have been discov
ered near the proposed location of the
colony, and it is expected when a set
tlement of these families is effected to
direct some attention toward the de
velopment of this coal.
This is but another step toward the
development of the resources of the
wild lauds in the eastern portion of
Linn county, which abound in wealth
for the stock-raiser, the lumberman
and the miner, and which are steadlly
being settled by home seekers from the
East and elsewhere.

Romance in Real Life.
Pome time since Mr. J. W. Wilson,
who lives about nine miles northeast
of Lebanon, made up his mind that it
was not good for man to be alone, so to
add the spice of a bit of romance, he
procured the address of au estimable
lady of Jackson, Michigan, Mrs. Adda
Sineswith whom he entered into cor
respondence. Thii eventually brought
a' proposal of marriage, which was ac-
j celled by the lady, the fulfillment of
(which necessitated a journey by the
, laJy to far-away Oregon. She arrived
on the Saturday evening train at Al
bany, where she was met by Mr. Wil
son. On Sunday they drove home,
sixteen miles, through a heavy "Ore
gon mist," but that failed to dampen
the ardor of their affection. They
drove to the residence of Rev. Wm.
Loufborougb, where they were duly
united in the holy bonds of matri
mony. The Express tenders its con
gratulations to the happy couple, and
wishes them a pleasant journey
through the pathway of life.
Serious Runaway at Sodaville.
Mr. S. - P. Haney, who keeps the
Sodaville hotel, last Tuesday hitched
his team to the wagon, and stood up
on the running gear while he drove
around to where the wagon bed was
lying on the ground. By chance he
drove too close, and the wagon catch
ing the bed, frightened the horses and
caused them to spring forward, throw
ing Mr. Haney to the ground in front
of the w heel, which struck him in the
side and broke a couple of ribs. The
horses ran and the wagon tongue
dropped from the neck yoke and ran
under the sidewalk and was broken
off. The wagon was broken in several
places and the horses' legs were con
siderably bruised.
A Delrab!e Winter.
The "oldest inhabitant," who has
been observing the weather of Oregon
for the past thirty years, says present
indications point to a desirable winter.
He says he has always noticed that
when it rains late in the spring and
there is considerable precipitation even
la June and July as was the case this
season that the following winter has
less rain than usual. There will be
plenty, however. He goes on to say
that the crops following such a winter
are unusually large. We trust for the
sake of his reputation and the country's
good the weather-wise old gejnlenian
is correct.
V ill Move to Prineville.
Mr. J. O. Roland has exchanged his
property in this place with Mr. Hind-
man for property in Prineville, and
will move his family over there next
week. He has not yet eold his stock of
harness and saddles, and says he may
stay here this winter and run his busi
ness. Mr. Roland came to this place
in 1856, thirty-two years ago, and says
he hates to leave, but thinks it is his
duty to go on account of the health of
his children. The Express joins
with his many friends in wishing him
success in his new field.
On Sunday evening at 7:30 o'clock
there will be a mectwig at the Cumber
land Presbyterian church under the
auspices of the W. C. T. U., it being
the anniversary appointed by Miss
Frances Willard, the president, for
prayer. The meeting will be conducted
by the pastor, assisted by Rev. Walton
Skipworth. Everybody invited.
Wm. Page, who killed Brown at
Burns, after being discharged by the

SPRING FARM ITEM 8.

seeing that you send out an invitation

There was an interesting spiritual
meeting at Spring Farm at the resi
dence of W. H. Cummlngs on Sunday,
Oct. 7th, at which nil audience of about
forty-two were present to witness a
grand time on that occasion. There
were seven persona under what Is called
Indian control from different Indian
tribes, and one of them had the slate
placed under a small table, and our
medium, Mrs. I. M. Bruce, held one
end nnd a small bit of pencil put on
top of said slate, nnd someone else held
the other end of the slate under the
table, to see what the result was when
the slate was removed from under the
table, there was found on it the given
characters by 'which each tribe was
known by their character, without any
persons holding this wee bit of pencil.
This was done in the presence of forty
two persons In broad day light. Now
we would like for Mr. F. M. P. to tell
us what compels this pencil to write
communications on the slate without
any persons holding the pencil, for
there ore too many eye witnesses to see
this independent spirit writing to say
It is a humbug. Now we have been
holding our little spiritual meetings all
summer in a nice maple grove on Mr.
John Read's farm, about three miles
southeast of Lebanon, which meetings
have leen held twice a month. As to
holding our spiritual circles In the
dark, as stated by mr opponent (F. M.
P.), is completely a falsehood. If he
wants to find the sure truth of spirit
ualism we ndvise him to be sure and
attend our meeting on next Sunday at
11 o'eloj-k A. M., and he may see what
true spiritualism is. Signed by
