Mutual Recognition.

On last Friday curious thing
happened in our city. There
was a meeting of a brother and
sister who had not been together
since they were infants, some
twenty years ago. Their parents
died when the brother was three
and half years old and the sis
ter about eighteen months. The
waits were adopted by different
people, and at present bear the
names of their paBents by adop.
tien. After reaching their ma.
jorities a couple of yea1s ago
they made an effort to locate one
another. The young man was
located In the Willamette val
ley, while the sister was in the
Baker City district teaching
school. la some manner they
lost trace of each other.
In the course Of time the young
lady drifted to Benton county
and became teacher in our pub.
lie schools, and the young man
secured employment in log
ging camp a few miles above
Corvallis. Just recently they
learned that they were Lying
within a few miles of each other.
According to pre-arranged
plan, when the Yaquina train
pulled into Corvallis, last Fri
day forenoon, the sister alighted
from the train and was embraced
by her brother. Although they
were babies when separated, they
knew each ether at once on meet
ing.
To make The meeting more
interesting it was found TO be
the birthday Of both parties. 1t
was also George Washington's
birthday. The young lady was
22 years old, while her brother
was "a. Guy Mankin, the
brother, arrived here in Decem-
Der, from Turner. uis sister,
who bears the name OF Miss Ivy
Durkee, is teaching school at
Philofaath.

which note was purchased by
Messrs. Smith, King and White
horn just before the adjudication
