LOST IN THE WOODS.
The problem was how to catch the
excursion to The Dalles? That was
the great social event of the trip.
A champagne lunch was to be
served on the boat. The entire
Denham Thompson "Old Home
stead" company and a number of
Portland society people were TO be
aboard. 1t worried some of the
young members not little how we
were all to make connections be-
tween the wreck and that cham
payne lunch. A party of these
daring ones, including Secretary
Pentland, volunteered to go over
land through forest to motor line
and thus catch on at Albina. They
got there. Steamer gone ten min

cupid" seems to have struck this
place in the last few days, almost like
a cyclone. We had a wedding here
yesterday evening on what we would
call rather short notice. A Mr.. Tur-
ner, from near Morrison, drove to
this place, and alighting from his
cart, "waltzed" into the mill and
proceeded to business by going to the
loom of his beloved, who was q Miss
Reeder, and asking her if she was
ready to marry. This was certainly
a very surprising question to the
intended bride, but after some per-
suasion he gained her consent. The
happy young man, with heart as
light as feather, started for town
and soon returned with the necessary
papers, which he handed to ESQ.,
Cartwright, who proposed to perform
the ceremony, but after celebrating
on the subject the "sqire" told the
would-be groom that he had only
been in the county a short time and
guessed he could not legally "tie the
knot" A minister was soon secured
and the happy couple were join
ed together in the holy bonds of mat
rimony. We wish for the young
couple happy voyage over the sea-
of life.

A Strong Endorsement.

Chillicothe (0hio) Leader.
Now that this cholera question has
come up, the Leader will improve
this opportunity to remark, that the
cock fighting editor of the Leader has
personally witnessed the most re-
markable results from the use of this
Ganter's chicken cholera cure, he
ever saw in any remedy of that char
acter. Three separate times has a
single bottle of it, instantly and eff
fectually, checked for him an inva-
sion into his collection Of egg produc-
ers, that he has every reason to be-
lieve wouldn't have left half dozen
out of his hundred pullets, in 8
months time.
This is square fact, and the writer

ment, either.

s==zsstlillz<i anu horror stricken l con-
tinued to watch the face of Inez, that
was white and rigid as marble, the
wildly burning eyes, with their CLEANS
as of Goals of fire, and looks of the
most consuming hatred, the tightly
clinched teeth that shone with a bane-
full flash through the lips as those Of
some wild animal about to leap upon
its prey, and the white, jeweled hands
holding with such a vicelike grip the
cleaning dagger over the heart of the
fair woman over whom she was bend
ing.
The next moment, like one still in a
dream, heard the admiring murmurs
give way to awful screams of horror
as suddenly the jeweled dagger flashed
high in the air and the next instant
was buried up to the hilt in Madehne's
white breast, while a maniacal laugh
broke from Inez' lips, and she wildly
shrieked:
you love her, Cecil Vernon, but
she shall never be your bride, for that
other bridegroom, whom they call
death, has taken her from you and
will forever claim her as his own"
1t was indeed true, for when the ter
rible confusion that reigned for the
moment was over and tender hands
had raised the beautiful head of Made
line, they found the terrible wound in
the heart, from which the life blood
was ebbing, was fatal one, and in
few moments the heart was forever
stilled, never more to thrill at the
touch of the hand or tones of the voice
of Cecil Vernon, the handsome lover
whose bride she had hoped to be, and
she was folded instead in the cold en-
brace Of the pale bridegroom death,
which had como to claim her in all her
youth and beauty as his own
Soon after Madeline was borne to her

private asylum for the insane, for it
was discovered that sudden insanity
had prompted the terrible murder Of
