From Harlan.
Oregon, Nov. "a.

Married, Wednesday, November
IS, 1896, at the residence of the
brides parents, w. w. January
and Martha Davidson. The groom
is well known i'll Lincoln county,
having resided in this vicinity for
many years. He has secured a fair
and popular bride, and one that will
add lustre to his home. The groom
looked quite happy when he placed
the ring on her finger that bound
her to him for life, and we'll he
might.
Capt. James Grier and Lieuten-
ant Ben January took their we'll
drilled forces out last night for a lit.
tie skfrmish. When they arrived
at w. w. %January's they called a
halt and ordered the troops to fire.
When the artillery lulled the Big
Elk band discoursed some sweet
music; then they demanded to see
w. w. January and bride, but they
were far away peacefully slumber-
ing in a warm bed. Mrs. January
and the children thoroughly enjoyed
the entertainment, and when she
thought the serenaders were tired
she pounded a drum Gin PAM for
them to stop. Boys, that's all right
boys, but it is a cold day when Jan.
uary gets left.
If this correspondent gets ratified
on details lay the blame to bride
cake and other good things.
Rev. Tunison says he had a cold
job last Thursday.

The loss of the fruit crop this
season has been heavily felt in this
county. While it is true that the
fruit industry is not far advanced,
and that the volume of fruit raised
is not large, yet a good many of
our people realized a few dollars in
cash every fall from the sale of their
surplus fruit, and their larders re-
ceived substantial assistance from
the products of their orchards
What may now seem to be a severe
hardship may prove to be a blessing
i'll disguise, however. In the first
place the stocks of green, dried and
canned frnits on the coast will be
pretty well thinned out. This will
leave a bare market and a good de-
mand for next year. To meet this
demand the orchards of Oregon will
be in better condition than ever.
After a years rest orchards always
yield better. We predict that with
anything like a favorable spring
that the fruit crop next yeay will
be unusually large, ard that the
price will be remunerative.

Rock Greek Ripples.

The roar of the mighty waters
that flood Rock Creek in the storm
is unheard by n quiet sleeper
above the gorge, and a stranger
has passed alone to the unknown.
An old man came into the noun
tains about October 70, to prospect
for gold. This morning he was
found in bed, in that sleep that
knows no waking. Friday moru-
ing Alvin Brock left his cabin, &C.
cupied recently by himself and the
old miner, to work on the opposite
side of Rock creek. At noon the
miner called Alvin to dinner, but
the creek had risen and carried
away the foot-log so he went to
Henry Scott's, and on returning
Saturday morning found the man
in bed with every appearance OF
having passed away in his sleep.
The deceased was a large man with
gray hair and moustache. His
name was ]. R. Hessle, and it is
supposed that he came here from
McMinnville, and that he has rela-
tives in or neal Portland.
Our mail carrier, Andrew Porter,
reports this his worst trip. Many
of the bridges and some parts of the
road are washed out.
E. B. Fanno, our road supervis-
or, has placed danger notices on
one bridge between Rocca and
Chandler postofices, but men and
horses still climbs over the broken
bridge, though it hangs at an angle
equal to the Nortons mountain
grade.
Most of the small bridges between
Chandler and Sugarloat have sailed
for parts unknown.
The Rock Creek school ma'am
and her older girl pupils, have been
"baching" at the schoolhouse dur
ing the past two weeks, because
the stormy weather has made the
roads unfit to travel daily, the girls
living from two to four miles from
the school house.
Several strangers have been on
Rock creek lately. Some are hunt
ing and fishing, others passed on
busidess or pleasure.

also be the recipient Of a great deal
of mawkish, sickly sympathy from
many softminded persons. We
have been led to believe that Brit

in the Castle case do not seem to
justify that belief. 1t is interesting
to note that the poor laundress who
was convicted at the same session
for stealing a few napkins of small
value is still serving time in prison.

The average rainfall in Oregon
varies but little, one year with
another, the principal variation be-
ing in the part of the wet season in
which it falls. Last winter the
early part and middle of the winter
experienced a light rainfall, and the
result was that the shortage in the
total amount of rainfall was made
up by the rains extending far into
the summer. The indications are
that the greater part of the rain will
all this winter during the months
of November, December and Janu-
airy, and that the spring will be an
early and favorable one.
