DEALS AT PARNASSUS
Light Let in on a Subject That Has
Caused Considerable Talk.
HUNDREDS OF ACRES G0BBLED.
Pittsburgs Rapid Growth Not at the Ex-
pense Of Tributary Territory.
THE NEWS AND GOSSIP OF THE TOWN

From information furnished yesterday
evening BY Mr.. Thomas Liggett. through
whose instrumentality much OF the business
has been transacted, it can be said that
there has been considerable movement in
acreage property at Parnassus quite recent
lv, but whether in the interest of town, a
glue factory, hotel or theater is at present
unknown except to a few persons, who are
as voiceless and close as oysters.
The farms of Stephen Young, Alexander
Young and Mrs. Seltz, comprising about
$50 acres, have already changed hands. and
options have been secured on several other
properties-the whole amounting to probably
500 or 1000 acres. Prices range from $3.50 to
$500 an acre.
The land already secured gives the purchas-
ers over a mile of river front and the same on
each side of the railroad. 1t is at least rs feet
above high water mark. The Murraysville
natural gas field is only six miles distant and the
Pine Run field seven. The CHARTERS gas field
on the Pinhook anticlinal lies back of Parnas-
sus about two miles. There is also aseven-foot
vein of excellent coal
Bearing these facts in mind, 1t is not difficult
to reach the conclusion that the purchasers
have extensive manufacturing interests in
view, though of what nature they decline at
present to divulge. And it would not be sur
prising If a new town were to grow up around
these works. The entire deal is being put
through by Pittsburg capital and capitalists.

HELD FOR PoLYGAMY. - Justice
Goodell has been engaged a good
part of the day in the preliminary
examination Of Edwin d. Morrlss
and Miss Lena Guise, arrested near
Mehama a few days ago upon the
complaint of Mary A. Morriss, his
wife, the former on a charge of adul-
tery and the latter on a charge of
polygamy. Morriss came from Ia
coma not long since to visit his
mother near Mehama, and was ac-
companied by Miss Guise, whom he
introduced as his wife. telling those
who made inquiries that he was
divorced from his former wife, whom
he married some time ago in that
neighborhood. She was formerly
Mrs. Suooks and is old enough to be
his mother. This woman followed
him here and traced the pair to their
mountain retreat, their arrest follow
ing az quicklyl as she could get the
papers out and the officers on the
track. Morriss and the girl Guise
denied the relationship of husband
and wife between them, but his
mothers testimony, while it was as
evasive and shielding as possible
left no doubt in anybody's mind
on the subject. The defendant
Morriss made an effort to get his
mother out of the way of
bring found by the officers,
but little adroit work by Sheriff
Croisan found her and she was pro
duced. The court thought the evil
dence sufficient to bind Morriss over
under the statute defining polyg-
amy, and placed his bonds at $500,
which he will probably furnish this
evening. The Guise girl is past
twenty years OF age, but
is a somewhat unsophisticated
maiden Of German parentage, and
the sympathy Of the Mehama neigh
bors was all in her favor. In view
of the circumstances and that the
evidence could only tend to convict
her of a lesser offence, District At
torney Bingham moved for her dis
charge, which was granted by the
court, and she will now probably re-
turn to her home which is near
Seattle, wiser if not happier, girl.
Morriss is a comparatively young
man, but his reputation is not
of the sweetest; neither was
that Of the Snooks woman sat the
time he married her. The neigh
borhood considered itself lucky
when they left it, While it is no eX-
cuse for the crime he has commit
ted, the best defense Morrlss has is
the countenance of the woman
who is prosecuting him. John A.
Carson is attorney for the defendant.

FINE UNIFORMS AND HORNS
The Second Regiment band boys
will now sport beautiful new uni
forms, which will make them the
objects of admiration as much so as
their fine music already does. They
are of dark navy blue, the coats of
sack make, with gold braid cords
across the breasts and gold shoulder
knots. Pants same color, with a
golden stripe down the outside
of leg. They have also receiv-
ed four fine new brass silver
plated horns, an E-fiat bass and a
baritone costing $4,000, and cor
net and slide trombone, costing
about 5000. These are but the
start of a full net which will be
procured soou, and then the style
and appearance of the band
throughout will be in keeping with
the uneXcelled music produced.

THE BOND ALL RIGHT.
Interest Felt in the Big Bridge
Throughout the Countryside
guards Are Ample.

The JOURNAL is in receipt of a
letter which is a good index to the
feeling of the farming population of
the county, and indeed of all the
Taxpayers everywhere. The letter
is written with stronger emphasis
all the way through than can be
indicated in type, so the reader can
imagine every word in large plea
capitals. Here it is:
"Now is THE TINE TO ATTEND
TO 1T.
EDITOR JOURNAL: Let Salem see
to it, that no just cause for complaint
may be found ION the part of those
who have TO foot the bills,) concern
ing the fulfillment of the contract
in the building of that bridge.
Yours as ever,
j. w. BATCHELLER,
From the north end of the county,"
Aug. 16, 1890. Butteville.
Mr.. Batcheller can rest assured
that the business men of Salem will
leave no watchfulness lacking to
see that the structure is built solidly
and honestly. This he must have
noticed by the promptness' and
earnestness of action the past week.
Assurance is now given that under
the supervision of County Judge
Waldo and Mr.. Mccoy the work
will be carried on faithfully,
There was some uneasiness as to
whether or not the changes made in
the plans would affect the validity
of the bond of the contractors, and
this paper has made an investigation
of that document to ascertain its
provisions. 1t was carefully drawn
up by George G. Bingham and it is
thought to cover all changes made.
Following is the wording of the
clause in relation thereto:
at is also expressly agreed by the
parties to this obligation that the
said counties of Marion and Polk, or
the engineer employed by said
counties, or such party or parties as
be may select, may make changes or
alterations in the said plans and
specifications in accordance with the
provisions OF said contract, and the
making of such changes or altera-
tions shall in no wise affect the
obligations of this bond and this
obligation shall stand as security for
the construction of said bridge ac-
cording to said plans and specifica-
tions as changed or altered"

CROP ITEMs.-A gentleman who
came to Salem from Nebraska last
winter received n letter from his old
home in Custer county that the
average yield of the wheat crop
was about four bushels to the acre.
Such returns as that must make the
farmers feel comfortable, if not
those in Nebraska, certainly
those who have left the land of cy-
clones and starvation and have TAX
en- up their abode in land of abun-
dance. The people back there don't
believe half the truth of crop re-
ports they hear Of Oregon. They
do not even accord TO their
friends who are here the verac-
ity they did when they were
among them. But the reason is
evident. They have become so ac-
customed to poor crops, and from
the fact that fifteen or. twenty
bushels TO the acre there is
a big crop and rarely to be realized,
So that 40 or 80 bushels to the acre
is simply an absurdity and they
think 1t only an advertising scheme
A few facts in comparison may not
be of much interest To a farmer who
must console himself with foul
bushels for his labor ON one acre
One farmer but few miles from
Salem has threshed $500 bushel,
from field of 100 acres, and only
thought it a fair yield. Others neal
by him realized 40 bushels from
every acre sown and did not boast
but thought he had Il good crop
This might be continued but It Il
not intended 10 discourage the Ne
braska friends.

TELEPHONE LINE COMING.-The
gang of men, some ten in number,
employed by the Sunset Telephone
company in constructing a line be-
tween Salem and Portland, had
yesterday reached three miles this
side of Gervais coming in this di-
rection and expect to arrive in Sa-
lem a week from to-day. They
will remain here about two weeks,
raising poles throughout the city
and then start back, stringing the
wires as they go, 1t is said the
Bell telephone patents, which have
made the business so costly, will eX-
pire in Octoberthis year. and the Sun
set company are preparing for this.
1t will be great convenience when
there is good telephone system
around the city and better still
when all the towns between here
and Portland are connected.

NOTED PIONEER INsANE.-All
old settlers hereabouts were grieved
and surprised to-day upon learning
that Capt. A. p. Ankeny had just
been brought to the asylum for in
sane by Sheriff Birdsey, of Jackson,
where he was adjudged demeHted
yesterday. Capt. Ankeny is a noted
man in Oregon history and once
had great wealth. He built and
owned the large block known as the
New Market theater block In Port
land, and it was he who started the
first line of independent steamboats,
on the Columbia in opposition to the
o. r.. 4 y. company. He purchased
four thousand acres of land ten miles
south of Salem, upon which his son
Henry resided several years, the
location being familiar TO all by the
name Ankeny. Some years ago he
became owner of some valuable
mining property in Jackson county,
known as the Sterling mines, which
are known to possess rich deposits
but the lack of water has prevented
their development. He and his SOD
have been engaged in those mines
and it is supposed the worry and
anxiety of the business at his time
of life wrecked his intellect. He has
been an active, powerful and ener-
getic mau, but is about so years old.

CHANGED HATS.-The Man About
Town of the Albany Democrat says:
A very funny thing happened ON

the Man About Town. 4 nicely
dressed nan after getting thourough-
ly ginned up sat down on n bee
keg with his head on his hands, and
his mind in II very comatose condi-
tion. A horribly dressed tramp
with a scare crow of a hat ON his head
came along, took in the situation,
stopped, lifted the mans nice hat
from his drunken head and put it
on his own head, and put his own
tattered and battered affair on the
drunken mans head and passed on
rs unconcerned as could be. 1t took
the well dressed man n long time to
find out who he was when he dis
covered the change that had been
made.

A NOTABLE VETERAN.
War Times Recalled MaiOr Thieman
Entertains the Old Soldiers Forty
two Years Service.

Major August Thieman, an olt
veteran of the Mexican war is in
the city today and was interviewed
at the Cook hotel this morning by q
JOURNAL representative.
Major Thieman will be 20 years old
the first day of next October, and
Notwithstanding the wound he re.
ceived he is yet bright mentally and
is an interesting talker, though his
speech is somewhat impeded from q
wound in the mouth which took
away part of his tongue.
He enlisted in the United States
army the first day Of May 1910 and
served four years in the First La
goons of Florida and in 1915 went tC
Mexico and served there until 1S47
ending his work there with the ia.
nous battle of Buena Vista. He
next went to Arizona and New
Mexico, where he took a prominent
part in the Indian troubles. On
May 1st, 40 he landed in Portland,
Oregon, and until 1861 he served in
the Indian wars of this state, Wash.
ington and Idaho. On the breaking
out of the rebellion lac enlisted in
the army of the Potomac, and
served il it until the end of the war.
He was during this service iuspec-
tor general Of the army corps To
which ID. c. Sherman, commander
of Sed ywick post, G.. a. r., this city,
then belonged and has full remem-
brance of the incidents and pers ons
Of those times. From 1865 to 1884,
Major Thieman was in different
parts of the Western frontier.
He has fought in 242 battles,
among some Of the most noted being
Bull Run, Stone Mountain, the four
days battle of Antietam, the famous
battles of Fredericksburg and Gettys-
burg, Cold Harbor, the Wilderness,
Spottsylvania court house, and
many others well known to every
school boy. This veteran soldier
has received thirteen commissions,
ranging from lieutenants, captain,
lieutenant colonel, colonel to major
general. He also has letters of high
accommodation from Presidents
Lincoln and Johnson, "Stonewall"
Jackson and from numerous gen.
erals of the Union army.
The old warrior lost nearly all his
property and his wife and only child
in a cyclone in Fargo, North Dakota,
last spring, and is now in poor pecu-
mary circumstances He lost four
brothers in the late war, and one in
the Custer massacre. He is a Ger
man by descent, and is highly edu-
Gated. He visited here with Sedg-
wick post, G.. y, r., last night and
all the old comrades were delighted
to meet him and will do everything
they can to make life pleasant for
him while he remains.
He has been somewhat neglected
by the political powers that have
ruled the nation, and has failed to
receive adequate recognition, that
his days might be ended in that
comfortable allluence which should
surround the defenders of a great
nation with such a record Of faith
ful service. The subject Of Great
Britain, for instance, with such Il
military record as Major Thieman
carries, would be the recipient of
honorable position and princely liv-
ing at the hands Of the government,
but here the old man is allowed to
glide down the abrupt hill Of life as
best he can, the sympathy of broth
ers in war and toll heing his only
grains of earthly pleasure.
