For some time past James Kelly. a brake.
man on the East-side train. says the Sunday
Welcome, has been suffering with internal
pains that almost distracted him and have
defied the best doctors and all the drug
stores in town to cure. On Tuesday he
was taken with violent fit of vometing,
the vessel in front of him live lizard, fully
two inches long. How the reptile found its
way down Mr. Kelly's throat is mystery,
but it is supposed to have come from drink

Yaquina Bay Items.
{Pickings from tho Post }


The citizens expect to have an excellent
school under way before many weeks.
Vast focks of brants have filed the air in
and about the Bay with their melihuous
cries during the week.
Founders are very plentiful and large
this season. Oysterville seems to be the
favorite grounds for this excellent fish, and
many pounds are caught there every day.
The Bay is full of herring. Mr.. Bryant
caught long string of them on Tuesday
with no other aid than his bare hands, A
man with a scoop net can catch barrels of
them in short time. This is the boss place
for fish.
We are informed that new and convicting
evidence has been obtained, within the past
few days, in the Hutchinson-AicKee mur-
der case, and the fact was teleg. aphed to
the district attorney.

A Horrible Death,

Just as the steamer, State of California,
was leaving the wharf at Astoria, yesterday
morning, deck hand named Youman, on
the ting Gen Miles stood on the tug as the
State of California was backing to get out.
The steamship was moving stern on toward
the tug and came near collision with it.
Younan sprang on the rail of the tug with a
fender to prevent damage. The collision,
which was sudden, but not violent, Jared
him off, and he fell into the water right
where the great propeller of the steamship
was churning the water at fearful rate,
and the man disappeared. Dragging was
commenced immediately. Two hours after
the grappel hooked on to the body. 1t had
evidently been sucked under by and gone
through the States propeller. There were
several gasles in the head, the neck was
broken, one arm and one leg were broken.
and the other arm was torn from it's socket
Youmans was an Englishman aged 30. He
| was steady, industrious man and worked
long time for Brown & McCabe, steve

Col. Thomas Beale came up this week
from the Coquille country to attend to bus
mess here in Roseburg, says the Plaindealer.
He reports times lively in Coos. He says
that great preparations are being made for
extensive logging this season, and that
there will be no less than three railroads
built this summer in Coos one by Mr..

Fishing Wheel.

The fsh-wheel, we learn from An ex-
change, for scooping up salmon during the
high water of spring, which was SO success
full last year as fish destroyer, is to be
again used this season on the Columbia,
only Oh larger scale. Last year, in one
day and night, 1000 lbs. of salmon were
scooped up and thrown upon the shore
The wheels are built with l'lank paddles
on projecting rock. so that the water run
ming down and striking them sets the wheel
to revolving. Within the wheels are placed
two large net scoops which catch the cal
mon when coming up stream, whirl them
around aud then dump them into chute
boxes arranged for their reception on the
shore The wholesale destruction by this
method will soon depopalate this stream of
the noble salmon and to prevent this possi-
bility there should be some law. passed to
restrict or DO away with the wheel.
