Entered Into Rest

At The Dalles, Oregon, on Thursday
morning, Dec. II, 1889, George Thomas
Brickell, senior warden Of St. Paups church,
The Dalles.
At meeting of the vestry Of st. Paul's
church committee was appointed which
drafted the following resolutions:
WHEREAS. 1t has pleased Almighty God
to take from among US our esteemed brother,
George Thomas Buckell, therefore be it
ResoLued, That in his death we, the rec.
tor, wardens and vestry of st. Paul's church,
have lost an earnest and faithful member, a
true and devoted friend, and the parish an
officer who was ever watchful OF its welfare.
This untiring zeal and fidelity to the church
together with his cheerful and unfaltering
faith always cheered and encouraged US.
His duties as senior warden were always
faithfully performed with an ability and
unseltishness that will not fade from our
memory. In the Sunday school, of which
he was superintendent, he was an eager and
earnest worker, guarding we'll his charge
and carrying 1t along, at times almost un-
aided. In his private life he was cheerful,
unostentations, charitable to a fault. always
ready to assist the poor and needy, a true
friend in the time or tronble, and tree from
all the prevailing vices Of his fellow man.
Be it further
Resoired, That while We bow submissively
to the Divine Viii, we desire to mingle our
sorrow with that of his many friends both
i'll the east and III the west, and that we eX-
tend our sincere sympathy to his immediate
relatives with the comforting reflection that
our loss is his eternal gain, as he has en-
tered into that rest prepared for the people
OF God.
Resoiced, That copy of these resolutions
be sent to the oereaved family, and that
they he published in the local and church
papers and be spread on the minutes.

A number of gentlemen met at the town
hall last Tuesday evening to talk over the
advisability of organizing land company,
the prime object of which would be to ad.
vertise the resources of Crook county with
view to induce a portion of the expected
immigration OF 1890 and succeeding years
to come to this county. But it Is TO lie re-
gretted that nothing was done, and from
the present outlook there seems to be little
hope that anything vii! be done in this di
rection in time to catch any of the immigra-
tion that will come west next year. The
people who are in business here and those
who have land for sale are certainly neglect
ing their interests by not taking hold of
movement that will induce those in search
OF homes to turu this way. Every person
who comes here to LOOK at the country
spends more or less money, of which every
business man must get his share; and every
newcomer who locates adds just that much
to the population and wealth of the country.
That immigration will finally come without
invitation and all the available land in the
county will be settled is evident, but this
may occur too late to be of any benefit to
the present generation, hence We say all of
US are neglecting golden opportunity when
we fail to take hold of AN enterprise that
will develop the country.

A Nan Shot and Killed at Subllmity

Word came to the city Sunday evening
that w. g. Riggs, married man about 40
years old, with wife and three children, who
resided on the Charles Eggert farm, one and
half miles eastward from Sub.imity, had
been shot and killed about noon that day
by Thomas Hammond, of Stayton, man
nearly the same age also married. The re-
rort proved true, as far as the death of Mr..
Riggs is concerned, but the manner of the
death is shrouded in mystery which will re-
quire the inquiry of the courts to solve.
The killing occurred on a farm belonging
to Hammond's father and which was occu-
pied by Hammond for time, but he left it
and has been living at Stayton. This farm
joins that occupied by Riggs and the latter
had some cattle on the Hammond place
grazing. At the time of the killing there
were present only Mr.. Riggs, Mr.. Hammond
and son of the latter ten or twelve year
old, so that the full facts may never be
known, although the tender age of the lad
may insure a straight story OF the sad occur
renee.
Hammond claims that the shooting was
accidental, while the gun was in the hands
of the boy and occurred in this wise: All
three were standing around the premises,
Hammond having a double barrel gun.
when some quals were seen flying around,
one of which Hammond shot, and then the
hoy begged to be allowed to shoot one.
The father handed him the gun. whereupon
1t was accidentally discharged by the boy,
tie charge lodging in Mr.. Riggs neck, kill
ing him almost instantly.
The Statesman s informant says that Ham,
mond has been telling some contradictory
stories about the matter, and the boy re-
fuses to talk, so there is not full faith placed
in the accidental theory in the neighborhood
of the tragedy. 1t is not known, nor does
he youchsafe to say, what MIR. Hammond's
business was from Stayton to the farm, some
four miles, that morning 1t is asserted
that he and Mr.. Riggs had some hot words
in relation to some matters connected with
the premises in the early part of the day.
1t is also said that the first man who arrived
upon the scene-some relative of Mrs. |
both barrels loaded of the
gun which it is claimed did the shooting |
and which is claimed to have been the only ]
frearm in the crowd.
Both Hammond and his son are under |
arrest, and there will be an examination of
the atray before magistrate.

Items Gathered From the Columns OF

Freighting from The Dalles to this place
is now worth % cents pound, aud no fat

The O. P. company has withdrawn most
of its force of laborers on the west side
mountain division. Early spring will see
them at work again in earnest. They ex-
pect to build to the Deschutes river before
the winter of 1890.
Deer are said to lie plentiful on the desert
southwest of Prinevilie, but they are very
wild, and make hunting more labor. than
fun. Although 1t IS unlawful for persons
to kill deer now, yet occasionally venison is
to be had here by purchasing on the sly.
Cattle can be bought in many places now
at ridIculously low figures. Of course the
cattlemen are not selling this way-tbey are
the ones who do the buying when this is
the case. The poor devils sell now, and
buy alter the raise comes. '"Twas ever
thus.
The drivers on The Dalles stage route say
that large accumulation of freight intended
for them to carry to this place has been
made at The Dalles. The roads will have
to dry. up, or become more easily navigated
before the stages can do better than carry
passengers and the y. s. mail.
