Ran iaiO Three peer.

From Mr.. Russell, Of Marion county, we
learn of peculiar incident which happened
to the Portland bound train Wednesday
morning. Mr. Russell being one of the four or
five passengers on the same. Three deer in
attempting to keep ahead of the train in Cow
Creek Canyon were ryn into. Two:of than
were thrown some distance, and ran off unin-
jured but the third had some of its legs
broken, and was easily captured. Being prob
ably fatally injured it was dispatched with q
knife, and an Indian on board skinned it for
the train hands, who will have an opportun-
ity to boast Of how they supped on venison
which they killed in Cow Creek Canyon.

many mixed up accounts Of the Albany
murder case, The following from an
Eastern Oregon paper Ii among the most
conglomerated: "W w Saunders, formerly
Of the "Bsnton Leader" shet and killed
Chas Campbell at Albany last week. The
trouble was brought about by q woman,
as usual. She went walking with Camp
bell on this particular evening, and led
him to secluded place near the Court
House, where Saunders laid Ia waiting for
his victim.n
The following On the subject Is taken
from the "West Side.' It explains itself
and VIII be news to many: I'VE learn
that Capt Saunders has determined TO
plead his own case before the Circuit
Court next March. Whether he will plead
the cause Of his confederate and accom-
plice or not is unknown. Saunders Is a
regular graduate OF o law school and has
beHn admitted TO the bar. A number OF
attorneys have rendered their services,
which ware declined by him. Saunders
has written TO friend In this city that he
committed tho act in self defense and In

Since 1880 Crook, Gillian, klamath and
Morrow have been formed from other
counties. This should be considered In
making comparisons,
twiD be noticed that the increase Is
about $4,000 in the last FIVE years, Ofthis
Western Oregon gets about 1900 and East
ern Oregon about 1000. OF the 1900
though more than half has to be placed to
the credit Of one connty, Multnomah.
Seven counties show q decrease, to wit I:
Benton, Curry, Douglas, Linn, Polk, Grant
and Wasco (and Crook), Douglas taking
the lead with 1900, The result shows
