busy catching onto it all. The
quietude was caused partly by the
absorption of time on the part OF
many society factors preparing for
larger events. Notable is the COM
ing chrysanthemum fair. Many
wonder what it will be like, while
the committees of the Kinder Sym
phony are holding almost daily
meetings to make it an affair
worthy of the fiowery kingdom
they represent.
There seems to be revival OF
dancing parties at the capital city
this winter. These events are not
carried on to late hour and sel-
dom last later than IL or O'Clock.
A growing interest in literary
lectures Is also noticeable, and
much to be encouraged for its de-
STABILITY in any community. The
air is full of hopeful promise of a
lively and rational season of enjoy
ment and culture. SO mote it al
ways be. sayeth THE JOURNAL 90

WEDDINGS.
The week has seen solemmized a
number of weddings of more than
passing social interest. Miss Bea-
trice Dennis was snatched away
by G. M. Whitehead to grace q
Portland home. Thomas Caufield
captured Miss Effie Young, of Eu-
gene, a former Sacred Heart stu
dent. Miss Elma Litchfield a
daughter of the Indian Agent. Geo.
HI. Litchfield, was united to Joseph
SCHNEIDER. While Salem gains two
bright new families from these we'd
locks, Portland gains but one.
Cards are out in which Mrs. M. j..
Dorrance, at Newberg, Or, invites
her friends and relatives to the nup-
tials of her daughter Ella M. Dor
rance to c. N. McIntire, Nov. s,

at Salem as bright student at Will
