The story OF So Me.
W w Torrnal

This morning the court resumed the case
of So-Ho.Me. The defendants story of the
killing of All Kow is substantially as fol.
lows: "Ah Kow owed me $40, which about
three days previous to the tragedy asked
him for, and he said, if I would come in
three days. he would pay me. When I
called on All Kow on the appointed day, he
was chopping wood, and when asked him
for the money he was mad and said he
would chop me with the axe; he said that
he had the money, but that he would not
pay me. Then I threatened to sue him,
whereupon he drew pistol from his pocket
and taking from it a cloth in which it was
wrapped he prepared to shoot me. then
grabbed All Kow's hand and the pistol fell
to the ground going off as it fell. Picking
up the pistol ran 60 or 20 feet; All Kow
following me with knife in his hand.
When Ah Kow came up grabbed hold Of
his hand which held the knife and in his
endeavors to free himself he probably was
cut. Then breaking loose from him I ran
around brush heap; All Kow following
and fred three or four times at him, when
he fell. Then threw away the pistol and
came down town and gave myself up.

Missing Two Months

About two months ago. SO we are in
formed, young man named Gordon, living
few miles from this city, left his mothers
farm driving band of horses to the Will
lamette valley over the Cascade mountains,
the proceeds of which he intended to de-
vote to course of study at tine Business
college IN Portland. His mother packed
his trunk, and sent it to his address in
Portland. Nothing has been heard from
him and the trunk has not been called for.
The mother is wild with grief, and cannot
conjecture what has become of her darling
boy, whether he has been murdered or per-
ished in the mountains. All inquiries she
has made has elected no reply, and the un-
certainty of his fate is worse than it she
knew he was dead. Every effort hos been
made to know whether he has arrived at his
destination, but the latest information she
has is when young Gordon left the last set
tlement before he entered the mountains.
1t may have been that after journeying in
the mountains the horses strayed and he
may haye persisted in the canyons, or he
may have reached the settlement, disposed
of his animals, and was then murdered for
the money in his possession.

Another Missing Man.

Another man has dropped out of public
sight suddenly and Chief of Police Barry
and his officers are trying to learn what has
become of him. This time it is an old man
named j. Bennett, who arrived in this city
a week ago last night, and put up at the
Astor house. He appeared to have plenty
of money and told Mr.. Warren, the chief
clerk, that he was a stock grower and had
large stock farm near Ellensburgh. with
some 500 head of cattle on it. He came to
Astoria, he said for visit only, and in.
tended putting in two or three weeks here.
He left 5000 in the hotel safe. and up to
Sunday night, when he was last seen, he
drew out all except $50. On that night he
took the $S5 and went out. Since then no
trace of him has been found. and his bag
gage is still at the hotel.
From what can be learned, Bennett put
in the whole of Saturday night in the 10 yer
end of the city, playing cards for money.
He lost considerable, it would seem, as he
made a remark to that effect to the night
CLERK of the hotel when he went there
about o'clock Sunday morning.
The missing man is described as heavy
set, about feet or 9 inches IN hight,
ruddy complexion, black hair and smooth
shaven, with the exception of short, IRON
gray whiskers, growing under the chin. He
is about 80 years of age and wore q dark
blue suit.

put into proper shape, and that the outside
of the court house be finished with cement.
We have examined the county poor farm
and find everything in connection Herewith

properly cared for.

items from the Locks.

CASCADE LOCKS, Nov. l8, 1889.
Editor TINES -MorKrANEER:
A few items from this section may not be
out of place, and I will try and furnish
them.
One of the most cruel murders ever per.
petrated was committed about nine miles
below here some days ago. A nah named
Lewis Mari lived all alone in Washington
about four miles below the Cascades. He
was a man of some means, and somewhat
old in his manners, but one that every
neighbor liked, and to whom the needy
never appealed in vain. A few days ago
some of the neighbors missed him and COM
menced search, finally finding him in his
pasture, shot through the body with
bullet, and in the arm and breast with buck
shot. His head was badly cut and mangled
with heavy instrument, apparently an
iron bar. What the object of the murder.
ers was no one can tell, as there did not
appear to be anything disturbed about the
house. There was found on the body $50
and $50 IN the house. Nothing is missed
except revolver and some cartridges, so
far as known at present. Who committed
the deed no one appears to know, and the
coroner's jury are trying to unravel the
mystery at present.
There are no items of Importance except
the one mentioned. Work on the locks will
close this month, and it is thought times
will be very dull here. But think it will
not make much difference, as Reed, Peal,
Hersey and the other Norwegians never
spend any money here, and the citizens can
live just as well without them. I hear the
wish expressed every day that the trio will
never be owed to return. But that
does not make much difference, as, if they
did not come back, others Just as bad
would take their places. If we get an ap.
preparation it is very strange that govern
ment will permit such men to control the
works. It is currently reported here that
Reed gets S. per month from all of those
Norwegisns who are employed on the
works, and that Hersey furnishes his fam
lily with grub for running them into the
mess house. notice all those who board
outside are the first to be discharged. Not
one of those who are reported to pay Reed
S. month have been discharged; yet
do not know the truth of these reports; but
they look to be founded IN fact.
We are having a large increase in popula-
tion. Mrs. Jordan has a fine boy; also
Mrs. Nelson. Mrs. McKinnon gave birth
to daughter. Last but not least, Alex
OToole's dogs are still on deck, and Dannie
aud Barney will hold the fort for some time
