} The ordinance passed some month
ago by the City Council requirin!
, feddlers to pay license, has brough
about a suit which Is likely to test th'
validity OF the ordinance. About /;
month ago sewing machine agen
WAS put under arrest for violation o
the ordinance and gave bonds to ap'
pear on the 18th inst, at which time
he put in an appearance and asked
for a continuance OF the case until
August 18th, which was granted. II
is the intention of the authorities to
make this a test case, as it has been
/ frequently stated that the act was
invalid.
Mrs. Sarah A. Waldron died in this
city early on Sunday morning, the
22d inst, aged 60 years and 10 months.
Deceased was born in the State Of
Louisiana and had been a resident Of
this city for about quarter of a CEN
tury. She was held in the highest
esteem by all who knew her as warm
friend, a devoted wife and mother
and earnest Christian. A husband
and three grown children survive her.
The funeral was held at the family
residence on Monday, at 2 o'clock, P.
NJ, Rev. r. II. Massey conducting the
services, and the remains we've de-
posted in the Masonic cemetery.
"A fishing party composed of S. NJ.
and J. c. Percival, w. J. Bryant, J. E.
Waterman and J. C. McFadden, went
up the Deschutes last Sunday. Two
OF the party took the team and drove
down the stream, while the three 9TH
ers waded the stream from Spurlock's
meadow to Wellman's, feat never be-
fore accomplished, it is believed. At
times they were neck deep in water,
and again in nettles as high rs their
heads, and at other times clambering
through the brush and tearing their
clothing nearly off from them. The
boys are still looking for Cal, who en-
gineered the expedition, and if found
before their anger has time to cool, no
knowing what will occur.
Patrons and friends of Collegiate
Institute will be glad to know that
President Follansbee has leased for
students boarding hall, the new build
ing lately erected by Mr.. William
Hlldebrand, corner Fourth and
Franklin streets. This building is to
be thoroughly furnished, conveniently
fitted up, and presided over by an
experienced matron. A better loca-
ton could not have been chosen. 1t
is within pleasant walking distance
OF the Institute grounds, in quiet
part of town, and sufficiently near the
various churches. Altogether it will
prove valuable adjunct to the
school while it reflects credit on the
educational enterprises of our city.
The first case, SO far as known, I'M
der the law regulating the practices OF
Justices of the Peace, in which it is
declared that Justice cannot appear
as an attorney in an action brought
before himself, occurred on Monday.
A certain Justice had an account left
in his hands for collection, and suit
was finally brought in his Court for
the collection of the bill. 1t was held
that the Justice could not have juris-
diction in the case under the law. 1t
was then sought to obtain a change of
venue and bring the case before an
other Justice, but it was held that the
Justice before whom the cause was
first brought, being without jurisdic-
ton, no change OF venue could be had.
