ne.nre the Register of Marriages in
Bnston sort of Sam Slick looking
party apparently about sixty five
wears old. who bashfully approached
the deputy clerk, and after much cir
cumlncution, announced that he
wanted 10 publish his intention oil
marriage. The clerk recorded the
names If the contracting parties, and
he psid the fee.
HAS that got to GO into the news

=" Yes, sir" said the clerk"
"Cant you keep it out"

"Well. l guees you'll have to see

very red, appeared in the Journal Of

Il got my intentions of marriage
published in Auburn this murnin',
but don't put 'em in, tor I've backed

An inquiry at the cler's office. re-
vealed that the old gentleman had
cancelled the intention and returned
the certificate. rs he stated. Wheth-

backed out is not so easily ascer-
tanned. Perhaps the venerable beau
WAS tine victim of heartless flrt.

Az English nan ntmed TIM
ner is in difficulties with Swindon
and Marlborough Railway Company,
not because of fast, but because at
feast. The Company had made
use of piece of land belonging to
him and Tanner made legal claim
against the Company for compensa-
ton. The Sheriff issued II writ t."
empanel jury, and il order fairly
to assess the compensation the jury
were driven in carriages to the
ground in question, and when they
reached it found that Tanner had
prepared for them champagne
breakfast, to which, notwithstanding
the protests of the Cnmpany's solici-
tor, they pnid instant aud close Mt
tention. Returning from the view,
the jury gave the ciaimant not only
the $4,000 compensation he had
asked tor, but $3.50 additional. The
Company thereupon moved for a
writ Of certiorari, and the Court
granted rule nisi for writ to bring
up the inquisition, there being nat
urally some doubt in regard to the
effect which the champagne break
fast may have had on the Jurors.

Gently purchased q pill mandatory.
The pills were already largely ad-

ihe doctor, evidently thinking that

lciivity for pills, thought it would be
p happy idea TO have certain scrip

beneath the pill advertisements up
on the fences throughout the couu-

piety worked beautifully together,

one day, to his great horror, he OBJ

yAoulNA BAY ITEMS.

From VIM. Grant, who returned from the
Bay last Sunday, we obtained the following
items:
The weather is still bad and the road OBJ
structed in many places with fallen timber.
The Logging camps have been started for
the Oneatte mills, and the mill will soon be
manufacturing lumber.
. Mr.. L. E. Davis is preparing to build a
new steam ferry boat to run across the bay
at Newport.
The leap year ball at Oneatta was deci-
ded success. Mrs. Parker and Mrs P. NJ. Alb
bey were floor managers: the supper prepar-
ed by Mrs. Parker and her daughters, was
excellent, and the music good.

POST moRrEM EXAMINATION.

Mr. Wilson Henderson, who has been in
1 hopeless condition for several months past,
died on Tuesday morning last, at his home,
about three and one-half miles west of Cor
wallis. For six months preceding his death,
Mr.. Henderson had been suffering from a
tumor of the abdomen, of gradually increas-
ing size, the exact nature of which was very
obscure, though it had been examined by
several of our resident physicians. Permis-
sion for post mortem examination having
been obtained, Drs Lee, Bayley, Farra and
Cauthorn, of Corvallis, and DIR. Whitney,
of Philomath, performed the same, and with
the following results: A large sarcomatous
tumor, commonly spoken of as cancer.
had developed in the attachment of the
intestines to the posterior wall of the abdo-
men, This was of considerable size, and in
an advanced stage Of disintegration. Conse-
cutively with this, smaller tumors, varying
in size from walnut to a hens egg, had de-
veloped in the mesenteric glands, so as to
make the intestines and their attachments
or mesenteries appear almost as one large
tumor. The right lobe of the liver was
also very much enlarged and involved the
whole surface being studded with sarcoma-
tous nodules. The kidneys and spleen
were not affected. A smaller tumor of, no
doubt, the same nature as the original one,
had begun to manifest itself in the deep
structures of the neck. The contents of the
chest were not examined /; had they been,
no doubt, from certain symptoms presented,
the lungs would have been found to have
been extensively invaded. The scene at the
post-mortem proved conclusively that all
had been done that could have been done,
and that Nature had acted wisely in with
drawing from the unequal contest.

PRICE oE REAL ESTATE.

ED. GAZETTE: 1 am disposed to take
issue with you as regards your views as to
the price of real estate, expressed in an edito-
rial in your last issue. I think that if you
will make careful personal examination of
the matter you will find that the prices
asked for town lots either on the main, or
the back streets, are not at all unreasonable.
Without going into particulars at present,
L request you to confer with DIR. Bayley,
Mr.. Woodcock and others and give your
readers the result of your interviews. Your
article was calculated to retard progress and
keep intending purchasers away. Men who
have momeg to invest in town property can
be accommodated on reasonable and advan-
tageous terms. Give this matter fair look
ing into and you will find that am right.
AS for people who come here expecting to
buy business sites or whole blocks of home
stead property for few hundred dollars, /
am afraid they will be disappointed.

hours, licentiousness, etc., etc., and undoubt-

occasion requires either with or without

A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

EDITOR GAZETTE-DEAR SIR: In your
item concerning the pastor and people of
the M. E. Church, in this city, you give cur
rency to certain idle rumors which are void
of truth, but full of injustice
Immediately after our arrival here some
one or more of our neighbors found time to
conceive ana circulate series of falsehoods
and misleading insinuation,s to the effect that
our temporal necessities were nearly or quite
ignored by the officers and members of our
charge The SANDER soon reached our ears !;
but, though somewhat annoyed by it, we
tried to tleat it with the silent contempt
which its very meanness deserved. But
since our excellent GAZETTE has been betray-
ed into propagating the falsehood, even be-
yond the limits of the charge, it is time to
speak.
The facts are simply these: Our temporal
wants have been carefully anticipated and
the wherewith to supply the same cheerfully
furnished Since our appointment to this
charge no proper kindness or attention has
been withheld from us by our people. The
officers of the church, finding themselves
backed up by an unusually large appropria-
tion from the conference, are saved from un-
due anxiety, yet they have not relaxed their
efforts nor neglected their duty.
Let the skeptical call and examine our
cash book. Let our gossiping neighbors OBJ
serve the black preachers Eleventh COM
mandment," which was, ''Let every one
mind his own business"

ALsEA ROAD MATTERs.-Mr. G. n. Rye
craft, of Alsea valley, was in the city this
week, looking after the matter of getting
county assistance to remove Instructions
from the road leading from Huffman's mill
to Alsea, which is at present impossible ex-
cept for footmen. We hope the county
court will cheerfully appropriate the neces-
sary money to open it to travel, as it
works a hardship upon the citizens of that
valley to have their communication with
the outside world cut off. Mr.. Ryecraft is
also energetically working to stir the people
up in the matter Of building the twenty
miles of road necessary to connect the Alsea
valley with salt water. This road is greatly
needed, and would be of much benefit to
the people of that section, and to the whole
county. All who are interested in the
progress and development of our county
should lend helping hand to this enter
prise,
