Arrested on Serious Charge

ErossaRaalaf1n. s5aaet%-@4H
Ray Sidener Of Western Linn
county was arrested last Thursday
by Sheriff Anderson upon a COM
plant filed by Price Bowyer OF
jackson township, charging him
with having enticed the IA year
old daughter of the latter from her
home with evil intentions OF a
grave nature.
The preliminary hearing was
called in this city by Prosecuting
Attorney Burns for last Tuesday,
when the defendant waived trial
and his bond was fixed at 81, 900
to appear for trial at the October
term of circuit court in this city.
Failing to give bond, young Slden-
er was committed to Jail to await
trial.
Sidener claims to be twenty
years old and has been employed
by. Mr.. Bowyer to work upon his
farm. The good standing OF the
young girl in the case and OF the
family to which she belongs makes
the affair quite deplorable.

Some Evening Reveries.

/ Happy is the man whose hear
retains it's youth, even under tn,
pressure Of years; who, though
grave, can still be cheerful, whose
hopes are as strong as ever, though
the objects are changed; who has
lost nothing of the finer tastes and
sentiments of his earlier years, who
can still admire the beauties of ma
ture, In whose ear the voice of
youth sounds pleasantly, and the
laugh Of children is as music, who
can enter into their pleasures and
share in their enjoyments with a
keener relish, perhaps, because
they recall the memory of bygone
days, and VINO can Jrave1 the down
hill road of life with more hope for
the future than regret for the past.
For such a man even old age has it's
pleasures, for though at times the
shadows of the past may darken his
spirits, he has but to turn his
thoughts to the future to dispel
them. How vain and empty appear
to him all honors and distinctions
gained by traficing with truth, JUS
tice and religion; how worthless
that accumulation which, while it
corrupts~>and enervates the soul
cannot satisfy the heart, arru wnnor1
he who has wasted his life in gath
ering must leave behind; and how
idle and hollow that popular ap-
plause in which the weak fanatic
fancies he hears the voice of God.
d.
When a man has established a
home, has wife and children, the
most important duties of his life
have fairly begun. The errors OF
his youth may be obliterated, the
faults of his early days may be ov-
erlooked, but from the moment of
his marriage he commences to write
an inefable history;a notsaby pen
and ink, but by deeds, by which he
must ever, afterwards be reported
and Judged. His conduct at home,
his care for his family, the training
of his children, his attention tohis
wife, his devotion to the great in
terests of eternity; these are the
tests by which his character will
ever afterwards be estimated by all
who think or care about him.
These will determine his position
while living, and influence his
memory when the grave has closed
over him. And as he uses well or
i'll the brief space allotted to him
out of all eternity, to establish a
fame founded upon the most solid
of foundations-private worth-so
will God and man judge of him.
He holds in his hands the private
veal and woe of his wife and child
ron and if he abuSeS this most
holy, God given trust, he cannot
hope for mercy hereafter. Many a
child goes astray, simply because
home lacks sunshine. Many wife
esteems death her best friend, be-
cause he who swore before God to
love, honor and cherish" has for
gotten his VOWS.
