A WRECKED TRAIN.
One Man Killed and a Number Serfousiv
Injured

CLEVELAND, January 17th.-The passen-
ger train on the Lake Erie and Western
Railroad was wrecked this morning near
Blutfton, Ohio, by broken rail. The To-
comotlve and baggage car ran over the
break all right, but the smoker and ladies'
car turned over on their sides, and were
dragged long distance before the train
was stopped. Albert Gilbert, a travelling
man from Costeria, Ohio, jumped from the
front platform of the smoker and was
crushed to death. Nine persons were more
or less injured, the most serious being Ed
win Nolod, of theatrical company, whose
left hand was SO badly crushed that it had
to be amputated.

NAVY DEPARTMENT,

Hon. ". W. AorTolC, House Of Representatives.: !:
The Department could not authorize repairs on

cent, the limitation by law. l carefully exam

that she can be repaired for SIZE, 600. Her live
oak frame is all sound and good. new vessel
like her would cost nearly 5000 900. She has a
claim upon the reverence of the who,e people
as Farragut's flag ship, and should be preserved
as Il monument to those whose blood was shed
upon her decks. T. ID. WILSON,

sity and patriotic sentiment in favor of the

Not Seriously III.

WASHINGTON, January 17th-At 8 O. clock
tonight DR.. Sewers SAID that Speaker Car
Isle was resting quietly, and on the whole
was considerably better than he was this
morning. He had, however, another chill
during the afternoon, to which the doct0r
seemed to attach but little importa &c.
"Chills," be said, were caused by int stinal
disturbances, which were primaril. the re-
suit of overwork and disordere digestion. !"
The question was asked, - he danger
ously or even seriously i'll p II do not re-
gard him as such" was the reply. He is
very weak, and as said, from overwork
and anxiety, and it may be some time be-
fore be is able to be about. But he sits in
bed, has never for moment lost conscious
ness, and has had several hours of refresh
ing sleep, and l think. without repeated
and violent recurrence of the chills, he will
get along without serious trouble. On the
whole. he is certainly improving"

Mr.. Lewelling weighed the fruit
from II lot of German prune trees,
eight years old, and they averaged
one hundred pounds per tree. This
was not an extraordinary yield.
One-siXty trees to the acre would
make return of Sl6O for the fruit
sold ut the canneries. If dried, the
returns would be more. The Ger
man prune is not SO profitable as
the Silver prune, or the italian and
its sub-variety, the Golden.
One man can cultivate twenty
acres planted to pears or prunes,
and viii require help only in har-
vesting. An average annual return
of 500 per acre is II modest estimate
based on prices for fruits in home
market. a heavy per cent. may be
added to this if the fruit is shipped.

What Cherries to Plant.

The sweet cherries, Hearts and
Bigarreans, having firm flesh, can
be shipped long distance and they
retain their flavor better than any
other fruit in drying. AS they can
not be grown in the prairie states
they will always be in demand at
the canneries. The following are
the best varieties: Black Tartarian,
Royal Ann, Black Republican and
Yellow Spanish. The latter perhaps
has no equal.
BY planting cherries of the differ
ent classes the season may be pro-
longed for two months in this valley.
May Duke, Early Purple, Goigne
and Knights Early Black are
among the earliest. Late Duke,
English Morello, Black Republican
and Windsor are the latest.

THAT sTLvERTOS DOG KILLING.
SILvERToN, Or, Dec. 26, '8S.

SILVERTON, VI, Oec' zoi 90
EDITOR JOURNAL ;-Will you al
low me few lines in your paper to
correct an article in a Salem morn
ing paper of the 18th inst, in regard
to the killing eff one Alonzo Browns
dog by Clyde Davenport. Thepaper
saws that Brown still insists on
CIyde's father paying for the dog.
Now the facts are that no demand
has ever been made for payment
for the dog, consequently Davenport
has never had an opportunity to
decline payment. That 1 take
Davenport's part or any ones part in
the muddle is not true that my
brother and had hot words about
the matter on the streets or any
where else is false nor did he strike
or attempt to strike me, as stated in
that paper; nor was L looking for an
officer to have him arrested.
Now the facts are simply these /:
Browns dog seized upon Clyde
Davenport on Saturday as he was
taking his COWS to pasture and the
Sunday following Clyde killed the
dog. Brown was angry about
the killing of his valuable shepherd
but did not do what he was charged
with doing.
The article in question must have
emanated from that papers or the
Siftings' reporter in this place or
from a member of the crowd to
which they belong, and the same
crowd that backs the whisky mill
here, bull dozes city elections and
tries to steal city governments.

A Cab system.

In March the Gurney system of
cabs is to be established in Salem.
Yesterday evening j. II. Gurney,
inventor of the system, left the city
for Albany, having arranged to in
troduce his cabs here. These cabs,
which are in use in the larger cities
of the East, and have recently been
put in use in Seattle, Tacoma and
Spokane Falls are elegant vehicles,
being built similar to ordinary cabs,
only they are One-half lighter and
made wholly of steel and will carry
four passengers. The carriage is
hung just one step from the ground,
so that, backed up to the sidewalk
the passenger steps at once into it,.
Inside, the cab is finished with en-
bossed French mohair plush, with
satin head lining. The steel body
Of the carriage is capable of high
polish and is painted handsome
wine color. 1t is equipped with
robes for winter and busters for sum-
mer. The drivers are arrayed in
livery and required to live up to
stringent rules. The charges are 25
cents per mile, or five coupon tickets
for dollar. When bought in large
numbers n much less rate is made.

The Only SMALLPOX.

In Marion county there are no
cases of smallpox, excepting in the
LaChappels near Gervais. They
are improving slowly and it is
thought now that Amadi LaCha-
pele will recover. He is a half
breed and has lived Il varied life,
but the nurses think he will come
through all right. OF the dozen
cases of smallpox in this county
there were but two deaths, and
they were children who were quar-
ter-breed Indians. This fact may
perhaps account for the disease
dealing so severly with this family.

Yesterdays staDDing affray at
Gervais may possibly result in the
death of Robert Krebs, one of the
participants. Itappears that krebs,
whose home is at Brooks, was drink
ing in a saloon at Gervais with
Charles Atwood, section boss on the
O. &C. road, when they commenced
disputing with each other over their
respective physical powers, each
claiming to be the "best man." At
last it was decided that they should
settle the matter by going outside
the city limits and fighting it out.
They went into a field a short dis
tance from town, being accompanied
by William Holtzclaw and a man
named Dickenson. The whole crowd
was drunk and they quarreled for
some time before the bloody fight
took place between Krebs and At
wood, from which Krebs came off
victor.
After giving Atwood a severe
beating Krebs started back to Gervais
but on reaching the road turned
around and returned to the field
where the other men had remained,
He says that three men then assault
ed him. He held them at bay for a
time by striking at them with his
pistol, but they finally overpowered
him and Atwood stabbed him in the
abdomen with a knife. He was
carried to Gervais and it was thought
for time he could not recover from
his wounds but this morning he was
doing nicely and will get well.
AT the preliminary examination
at Gervais yesterday
evening before ]. S. Purdom, JUS
tice of the Peace, Charles Atwood
and William Holtzclaw were bound
over, charged with assault with in
tent to kill, to await the action Of
Jhe grand jury. They were brought
to this city this afternoon and
placed in Jail. Dickinson was dis
charged, there being no evidence
hat he had hand in the quarrel.
