DIED.

MITCHELL-IA this city, on this rncrRing Of the
2Ist inst, Louvisa, dad Sef of s. u. All Hercy \.
Carl, and wife Of James X. Mitchell, aged 30 years
and two months.
Mrs. Mitchell was born in Marshall county,
Iowa, Oct. cd, 1886, she was the mother Of
four children, three living and one dead. The
family came TO Oregon October, 1883, living
for time in Looking Glass, Douglas county,
Oregon, and then removing to Roseburg,
where, on Monday last, she departed from
earth for her home in Heaven.
Sister Carl professed faith in Christ when
she was twelve years old, her father being
preacher in charge and as natural result a
whole life was spent in the service OF God.
She fell asleep in Jesus in great peace.
Mrs. Mitchell was an amiabia cultured lady,
respected by all for her many generous in-
pulses, she was kind devoted wife, care
full painstaking mother and warm hearted
devoted christian. Her sufforings were long
and lingering, until the morning OF the 2Ist,
when she was released from suffering and sc
renely went home to the 'ssweet bye and bye.
She died of tumor. A large concourse fol-
lowed her to her grave, and not soul was
present in the audience when Rev. Howard
preached her funeral sermon but what believed
she was at rest in Heaven. A christian life
is the only guarantee Of happy home in the
sun blight cline.

1t is not an exaggeration to say that Rose
lecture than it was last Tuesday night. Every
seat in the Grange hall was crowded, chairs
were placed in the aisle, and many eager list
cncrs were compelled to stand. Hon. w. F.
Owens, the lecturer of the evening, has APP
pearcd before the public here before, but on
this occasion he made an impression SO fsvora-
bic that an address from him will always be
welcomed. In his remarks, referring to the
different laws enacted to suppress crime, he
made strong impression. In answer to the
speakers who opposed prohibition he com
pletely annihilated all their arguments. Quick
in manner, never at a loss for words, and
speaking as rapidly as a steRographcr could
write, he crowded into his hour and "a quarter
address an immense amount of valuable matter.
His ideas were clothed in choicest words, and
most graceful rhetorical figures. In his clos
ing remarks, including an appeal to the law
makers ofthe land, was gifted effort, and
most finished conclusion to an admirable lee
ture. Character song, ''The drinkards child''
by Miss Sallie Tibbets, deserves special men
ton. Il was very pathetic piece, and reflects
much credit upon the little songstress and actor.
The play Testimony" was indeed very clev-

A SPECIMEN LETTER.


| We print below a lett@ from Samuel C.
Bixler Of Ohio, which sssAks for itself. We
receive letters every week which speak in the
same way. OF course we send the REVIEW
to him feeling that it viii give the desired in
formation. Butjust how our paper had gotten
there is more than We can tell.
| Sterling, Ohio Dec. 8th 1885,
Mr.. /. r. N. Bell,
| Dear Slr:-I chance TO get copy Of your
paper, and as would like to learn some more
about the country of Southern Oregon, OF its
capabilities, OF productions, its advantages of
| climate, cheap homes, etc. So find enclosed
twenty FIVE cents in stamps for which, please
send me three or four Of your weekly papers,
each week for three or iour weeks as paid for
sample trial. l may subscribe for six
months or year to some good paper from
Southren Oregon, as feel anxious TO learn
something more definite or accurately, what
kind of country Oregon is especially the
Southern part, as | learn that in the more
northern part, the nights are too cold for corn.
The climate is most important of all; / would
like to migrate to a healthy country where
the Climate is little more milder than in
northern Ohio. Where corn and peaches can
be raised. The winters are too severe for
peaches in northern Ohio; we have trees but
they feeze during the cold winters and
late killing frosts in the spring-we generally
have killing frosts till way in May, often till
the goth OF May, that kills tender fruits. corn
and vegetables, and in the fall t%o years ago
we had killing frosts on the 9th, 10th, and
nth OF September which killed nearly all the
corn while it was yetin roasting-e ears and last
winter the mercury went down to Is and as
low as IS degrees below zero and continued so
for FIVE weeks. In summer we often have it
90 to fo5 in the shade for a day or two.
Sunstrokes very common and then it will
change very suddenly, perhaps will fall from
los to SO or IS the same week, in July and
August, and in the latter part of May and the
first of June there may be frost on the goth
and in two days from that time the thermom-
eter Will be up to 90. We had about six
inches OF snow nearly two weeks ago and
mercury down 10 I6 and on the 9Th and 9th
inst. it stormed showing mercury at 10 TO z2
and yesterday it was down to Ia and at
P. M. 10 Zero. Now would like to learn
through the columns of your paper how the
weather is in your parts during winter and
summer how high and low the thermometer
rises and falls, what kinds Of cereals and fruits
are adapted to your soil, climate etc., prices
OF land and as to timber, water. game, fish etc.
Address, Sterling, Wayne Co., Ohio
Box 90.
Yours Very Truly.
