!" Erminie,s " Revival.

"Erminie'' seems determined not to be
forgotten, and its hold upon the public
is as firm now as it was when the opera
was first produced. 1t is safe to say that
the majority of the New York Casino
patrons have witnessed its performance
at least twenty times, but the avidity
with which they buy seats, weeks in adj
vance, shows the success of the present
production. The houses on Thanksgiving
Day, at both the afternoon and evening
performances, were the largest holiday
houses ever in this theatre. Great crowds
of children attend the Saturday matt
nees. and appear to find much enjoyment
in watching the adventures of Caddy.
Mr. Rudolph Aronson is considering the
plan or giving mid-week matinees, in
order to accommodate those unable to
obtain seats on Saturdays.

"COCNEY THE FOX.
A Meeting After Many Xears.

The following from the Eugene Jour
nal is very romantic affair. The heroine
Is Mrs. Wheeler, the healer, and the
woman who located the drowned bodies
at the Siuslaw. During the war she
served as nurse in the Union service and
had many thrilling experiences, among
them being the following: She was
present at the battle of Spotsylvania. At
the commencement of the battle Union
officer rode up to her and handed her a
package of papers with the request that
she should keep them safe until the bat
tie was over. and then if he (the officer)
should not live to call for them, TO deliver
the package at headquarters.
In the course of the fight flank was
turned and Mrs. Wheeler and the rest of
the hospital nurses captured. Upon
searching her person, the papers were
found and proved to be the work of
Union spy, who had been inside the rebel
lines. She was at once arrsigned before
a court martial, and Notwithstanding her
statement of how she came by the papers
and repeated protestations of innocence,
she was formally convicted of being spy,
and sentenced to be haLged at sunrise
the next morning. She was then taken
by guard of three soldiers, and confined
in small guard house which had but one
small aperture admitting light and air,
aud through that aperature she saw the
erection of the galIows on which she was
to perish.
Inside the guard-house there was moth
ing but the bare floor of earth and two
dry goods boxes standing against wall.
That night one of the guards entered
the guard-house with piece of cornDread
and tin cup of water for her supper.
Mrs. Wheeler spoke. The guard stopped
He then retired and locked the door upon
her again. Later in the night she heard
a voice at the aperature say, Move the
small boxr' She moved the box and
discovered an aperature which proved to
be a tunnel. Through this tunnel she
worked her way, on her hands and knees,
for about cne fourth of mile, when she
emerged at it's mouth, and found a man
and two saddled horses standing there.
Mrs. Wheeler mounted one horse and Il
man, who was disguised. the other. For
SIX miles they rode op IN darkness with
out speaking, but at the end of that time
the man spoke and said: You are now
safe in the Union lines; ride right on"
and the man disappeared in the darkness
like shadow.
Mrs. Wheeler rode on until she came
across pilot who took her to Gen. Hent-
zelman's headquarters.
Last September, while taking little
outing at Anderscns on the Mckenzie
river, Mrs. Wheeler and her preserver
met, and recognized each other, after
lapse of twenty six years. Her preserver's
name i. the weil-known Dr. B. F. Russell,
now postmaster at Thurston. He was
one of three guards. He was the dis
guised horseman.

True EiOIuen ce.

There was most touching scene in an
Arizona courtroom q few days ago-that
OF a sob, lawyer, defending his father,
who was charged with the crime of
murder. The father of Assistant City
Attorney Callen, of San Diego, CAL,
recently shot and killed man, as he
claimed. in selt-detense. The son took
charge of his fathers case and went into
Arizona to defend him. He is known rs
one CT the most eloquent lawyers In
Southern California, and that in the de
fense of his father his eloquence did not
iorsake him, is well shown by this little
extract from his plea before the jury.

neminiscence or Pionecr Days.

In conversation with Capt. John M.
Marden, areporter of the TINES. MOUNTAIN
EER learned the following incident regard
ing the administration of justice in Wasco
county.
In 1858 the highest magistrate was o
justice of the peace, and Mr.. John d.
Woodward, nov of the Locks, occupied
that positson. A man was brought before
him for larceny, and the evidence being
clear he was fined Sl00 or fifty days in Jail.
The man had no money, and the nearest
calaboose was in Vancouver. After coDsid-
ering the matter, Justice Woodward came
to the conclusion that he must take the
prisoner to that point. Shouldering his
rifle he forced the culprit to lead, and SO
convey him to the destined place. When
he arrived at Vancouver he was informed
that that was military post, and the off,
GERS had no right to incarcerate the priso-
ner. Ordering his man to ''about lace" he
marched him back to the Cascades, and on
arriving at this place told the thief that,
seeing he had no money, he would take his
note for S200--fne and expenses-and costs.
The man willingly gave the amount and
was discharged. Nothing has been heard
of the fellow since, and on asking Mr..
Woodward about the promissory note few
daysTago he said it was still bearing inter-
est per cent a month-and that it was
still in his possession. When that note is
collected, Uncle Johnnie has promised the
reporter of the ThdEs MoUNTAINEER a
champagne supper and the knight o. the
quill does not expect the supper very soon.

we keep the best coffees and teas IN the
town. We haye customers who buy their

fact, for its the talk of the town that YOU
can buy the best coffees and teas at the Red
