Ellensburgh Localizer: Fred wyman who
escaped from the Jail July 9th was captured
In Seattle last week and was brought over
on Tuesday by Deputy Sheriff Tlllman.
Sheriff Brown has had men on the lookout
for him in both Tacoma and Seattle for
some time. Hearing that he was at the
latter place, Brown telegraphed for his ar
rest. Wyman was In for horse-stealing.
Locdlizer: Several riototisly inclined men
recently talked of making raid on two
Cinnamon who live on the Yakima, oppo-
site Cle-Elum. They threatened to tear
down the houses the Cinnamon lived In.
Walter Reed, the owner of the houses, told
them he would defend his property, il nec-
essary, with a shotgun. The mobbers con.
cluded it was not best to carry their threat
into execution.
La Grande Journal: Freight train No. 20,
which left this city Wednesday evening,
broke in two at Union, and with such force
as to throw Will Getchell, one--of the
brakemen, against the caboose stove, and
break several ribs for him. A number of
cars were also bunged up by the accident.
Mr.. Gctchell was brought to this city
shortly after, and to-day is resting as
quietly as could be expected.
W. W. Union: On Thursday afternoon,
the wheat warehouse at Hadley station, be-
longing to Fl. p. Isaacs, fell apart, the walls
falling outward and the roof falling in. The
warehouse was full of wheat at the time,
and it is supposed that the pressure of the
grain caused the accident. The walls in
falling struck three loaded freight cars,
which were thrown from the track. But a
few moments before the walls fell in the
warehouse man was at work in the house,
and being called away, returned in a few
minutes to find the house leveled to the
ground.

in from Granite yesterday and informs us
that it was generally understood there that

Harper who was there ready to receive him.
Williams is brother of Tom Williams, re-
Gently discharged from the penitentiary,
where he seryed his time for the attempted
killing of "Peter the Poet" editor Of the
Long Creek Eagle. We understand that a
very positive case has been made out against
Williams and his conviction is deemed GER
tain.
The dispatches from Astoria to-day says
that Pat O'Bren, who was shot by Phillip
Pierce at the Central hotel last Saturday
afternoon, died from the effects OF his
wounds at st. Mary's hospital yesterday
morning. His funeral took place to-day.
Public opinion sustains young Pierce in his
act. The coroner's jury held an inquest to-
nt ada oh ain ,lxr

from the effects of gunshot wounds received
on the 10th day Of November, 1889, by
pistol in the hands of one P. Pierce. Pierce
was brought before the coroner's jury, but

no ante-mortem statement.
Astoria Pioneer: The advantages of ad-
vertising may be realized when we look at
some OF these little obscure places which
have sprung into existence within the last
few months. Pasco-everybody knows
where it is-has disposed of half million
dollars worth of lots. The following from
q Gray's harbor paper is still another incl
dent: "Four thousand pounds of adyertis-
ing matter ordered by the Improvement
Co., will be furnished this week. among
which are 200, 600 fine lithograps of western
Washington. G. B. Douglas, who has been
engaged as advertising agent, will start
next week on tour of the state, in the in
terests of the company. and while absent
will visit and bill every town and city Of
any consequence in Washington, with mat
ter descriptive of the harbor in general and
Cosmopolis in particular" Cosmopolis is
but few years old and can boast of but
very little to invite capital and settlement

nerve to expend few dollars in the. shape
