We received an interestingenmmuni- cutlou from Foster last week, too bite for publication, but owing to the writer not having signed his name it would not have been published anyway. We would very much like to have a corre spondent from Foster, Swept Home and several other places, and will send the correspondent the Express, paper and envelopes. The real name of the writer must accompany all communi cations, as well as the noni de plume, not for publication but that we may know who is the writer and to show good faith.

He didn't remain In any longer than necessary, We were under, the Impression that the Salvation Army did not consider Immersion necessary as a religious rite, but our goo I natured friend Goins had to take bis dip, he couldn't help It. Scio Press. Wanlftrl For llftpfn Brownsville lias u lieliulhe sensation, and tli lenple of that usually quiet town are enraged and threaten sum mary veageauee If the object of their anger isi arrested. From the Eugene Guarditve- learn the following particu lars: One-Dr. J. D. Spouogle ts charged with Hawing committed t le-autrageou crime ofT tape upon Mrs, ilif, Wyatt, in thud city lat Saturday morning while, under the Influence f chloro lorni, Sponogle having glswi the same under-the pretense of performing a eurgieal; oerutlon .' The tally claims that she was only pari laity under the influence of the ainesl lietlc and waa aware off Hut heinous crime Mug corei mitttdi but was unable to prevent It. She at once-iufnr tied friends aud they went into the country about four miles distant and summoned her husband,., who-watt working on bis farm. He armed' himself with a shotgun and im mediately went In scarab of the doc tor, but that' Individual before tbe -arrival of the maddened, husband had ; plaaed bis belongings into bis buggy,- and left for this city... Sponogle ar rived about 4 o'clock. Saturday after., noon and after placin&his team iu the livery stable, registered and engaged. a jooui in the Hoffman- House. Wyatb immediately left Brownsville in port suit of the man who .had so criminally wronged him, arriving here about H o'clock the same afternoon, aud waui to the hotel at once to search for the 'lector, who caught a glimpse of Wjtatt snd decamped trout .the hotel. Biace- Jtbat hour no tracahas beeu found! of the Individual, although Sheriff' No land and deputies.have been searching for him. If the man Wyatt huduaed good judgment and informed tbe sher, iff before proceeding to tbe hotel the wily doctor would have beeu easily captured.

Mr. Wyatt was security on a note given by the doctor for f 90, and had every confidence in bis probity. Sponogle had been a res ident of Brownsville for only a few months.. The Hep IndDltry. The bop Industry in this part of the country seems to be winning ground, says the Brownsville Times, especially near Brownsville. Not withstanding the fact that this city for several miles around Is a net-work of hop yards, during the week two tracts of five acres each have been leased for a term of five years, and will, next year, add figures to the number of bales of hops produced iu this commu nity. A number of our enterprising citizens are now contemplating tire. or ganization of a company to own and operate several large hop yards at this place.' They have already priced about IOC acres of land, but as yet done noth ing definite. Each day that goes by adds something that means dollars and cents to the future welfare of one of the most prosperous cities on the Pa cific coast. It signifies something, and if there is a cry of hard times next year In this part of Linn cnuuly, we predict that there will be something "Rotten In Denmark," Out r Debt. It has been reported t hut the city was in debt to a considerable amount. On investigating the matter we find that wheu the present council took charge the city was over fiiOO behind, and they have paid that oft, paid for all the light and water, kept everything up and now only owe something less than (40, and by the time their term is out will probably have paid that oil' and also leave some money in the treasury. The best part of it Is they will have done it all without having levied any tux. R. S. Applegate, an old pioneer who had been lost In (he mountains fot three days, was tound dead about eight miles from Drain, in tbe moun tains, last Thursday.
