| BILE, as usual, at this stage. During the
morning Mr.. Pickle drove into the upper
| ford, and when about half way across, his
horses lost their footing, the high water
having washed the ford out, and but for
timely assistance, summoned by his cries,
both man and horses would have been
drowned. As it was the horses were re-
leased from the wagon and gotten ashore
with difficulty, the wagon being left in the
stream. The same morning at the lower
ford w. S. Surratt drove his team into the
water and had a like experience, the horses
having to be lasooed and dragged ashore.
One of the horses was 60 badly injured that

Union: In the probate court Friday after
noon Mrs. Pitcher, an aged woman, and
grown daughter will be examined as to their
sanity. These are particularly sad cases.
1t will be remembered that last fall Ed.
Pitcher, young man and son of Mrs.
Pitcher, was brought before the probate
court in state of madness, foamiDg at the
mouth and acting like maniac. At the
time of the trial q brother OF the afflicted
man appeared and stated that his brother
had been subject to insane fits for several
years, but never SO severe as the one he was
then suffering from. He also stated that
the disease was probably hereditary, as his
mother and a sister were also thus afflicted.
In his great devotion as a son he did not
state that these other two unfortunate
members of the family were and had been
a helpless and at times dangerous charge
upon his hands for several years. Their
condition of late has been SO critical that 1t
was impossible to care for them, and after
long persuasion only has he permitted COM
plant to be made.

Editor TINES MCtNTAINEER:
AS it has been some time since this To-
cality has been heard from will try and
give you few items.
The snow is all gone and grass is green.
Stock enjoy themselves immensely. Some
of our farmers have already commenced
blowing; they seem to feel as if they
would reap some benefit for their labor
when fall comes. The acreage this year
will exceed that of last year by about
one-1lfth. 1t is rather pleasing to talk
with the farmers when they feel good-so
much different from last fall. Fall grain
looks first-class; it is about three inches
high and is of good color. / think
about four-fifths of all the grain in this
locality was sown last fall.
Our congenial road supervisor, Mr.. G..
w. Messenger, commenced work on the
grade today. 1t is at present in a bad
condition, but will soon be D. K. under
his supervision.
Messrs. Kagrodale and Hampton passed
through this town for Tygh Valley Sam
day.
Mr.. A. ]. Kellam and wife, of Mime
apolis, brother-in-law of A. G. Huff, is
visiting here with a calculation of settling.
There is plenty of room for all. Soil is
cheaper now than it will he in a year, and
now is the time to inyest in real estate.
We had quite a wind storm in Milbra
last Monday. The houses of D. J. Ry.
kers and Mi. Erskine were blown off the
foundations; the barn of Walter & Co.
was blown down with two horses III it,
but fortunately they were not hurt; also
blew off the chimney of the Erskineville
House. Damage in all about $4,000.
The explosion of lamp in Mr. Charles
TaYlor's house came near causing fire,
but through the efforts OF Mr.. Taylor the
flames were eXlinguished. The explosion
occurred same night of the wind storm.

heaviest rains occurring in the central
Mississippi valley, including Arkansas,

heavy rams were attended by destructive
floods in the rivers of the lower Ohio and
central Mississippi valleys. Excessive
rains have continued on the Pacific coast,
and damaging floods have also occurred
in California. The monthly rainfall at
San Francisco was 9.6 inches, and at Sac
ramento &c inches.

also less rain than usual in Minnesota and
at Rocky mountain stations.
At the close of the month snow was re-
ported on the ground in Maine, northern
Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Dakota, the depth over the greater portion
of this region being less than six inches,

Shooting ARRAY Mt Payette.
Ua,ear I a,Nor

Welser Leader
On Menday evening last Joseph Atchison,
commonly known as ''Sheepherd joe" shot
a noted character by the name of Ed Alb
bott, in Brown Bank Is saloon, at Payette.
From all that we have been able to learn,
the particulars OF the atfray are about as
followsi It appears that Joe and Abbott
were in Brown & Banks saloon engaged in
gambling, when dispute arose. Joe,
hearing of the desperate character of Alb.
bott before this, quit the game, and was
standing in the room, when Abbott got up
and commenced calling Joe a coward, tel
ling him he would not shoot, at same time
drawing his knife and advancing. When
about SIX feet apart Joe Atchison drew
bis 44-pistol and fred, the ball taking effect
in Abbott's breast. just above the left nip.
pile, ranging little down, passing clear
through his body and through the wall of
tine building; but, strange to ssy, the shot
failed to carse Abbott to fall, but he kept
after Joe with his knife. After the first
shot Joe lowered his pistol, as some one
called to him not to shoot any more as he
had killed Abbott. Joe Lit opt after the
shooting, but it is supposed he concluded
to give himself oyer to the authorities, as he
arrived here Wednesday evening late, and
the next morning surrendered himself to
Sheriff Pence, who lodged him in Jail and
notified the Ada county officials. On
Thursday evening Constable Edwards left
with Joe in charge for Payette where a pre-
liminary examination will be held. Joe
Atchison was, when sober, very peaceful
and quiet man, but when drinking
he was inclined to be quarrelsome.
Abbott is said te be a pretty hard character.
and is aotea for making gym and knife
plays. at last accounts the wounded man
was getting along very well, and it is
thought he will recover.

PLUCK AND ENDURANCE.
Ten Days ON Horse.Meat Straight.

MIR. Henry Egle, a large horse owner of
SILVER Lake, Lake county, Oregon, left
Sprague River on December Goth TO cross
the mountains to Cycane valley, on his
way to Silver Lake, the distance being
so miles. He had nine head of grown
horses and one colt, expecting to make
the trip of 80 miles easily in one day, and
taking only lunch for that day. After
making 2l miles storm caught him and
he lost the trail and had to camp. His
lunch lasted him two days; then he killed
the young colt, living on horse-veal for
eight days. The storm finally abating he
made pair of Indian snow-shoes by un-
braiding his raw-hide lassoo or "riatta,"
he climbed to the top of a bald butte got
sight of Mt. Hagar, and found out where
he was. Returning to camp lie was again
delayed by snow storm lasting "a hours.
Then taking three days rations of horse
veal he started for Cycane. leaving his
horses. He made the "a l." ranch in the
evening all right, but very tired and one
toe frozen. The snow was very light, and
was about 81 to 4 feet deep. During the
time he was i'll the mountains the tber- |

Several men are reported as missing on

WHY HE SWOHE.

With terrific cold in his head,
And his eyeballs heavy and sore,
The editor sat in broken chair,
And bitterly, earnestly swore.
A youth had dropped in with poem,
A man was there with dun.
And ! chap had entered to tell him,
How the paper ought to be run.
An irate subscriber had told him,
That his sheet wasn't nit to read,
While another had carefully promised
To punch the editors head.
The foreman was yelling for copy,
The wind whistled in at the door;
And this, with few more reasons,
Is why the editor swore.
But the angel who took it to heaven,
Recorded his verdict there:
"The jury find In the present case,
Twas just6able swear"

The high water on Crooked river the first
Of the week carried out the new bridge
across the river at the mouth of Newsone
creek. It is said that the pier In the Gen.
ter of the river, on which the bridge rested,
was filed with brush instead of rock as the
contract called for, and would not withstand
the force of the water and Ice that came
against it. The bridge cost the county
something over $500, though it had been re.
ceived by the county court, and the loss
will no doubt fall on the county. The wash
ing out Of this bridgesls a serious disadvan-
tage to the people of the easrern part of the
county, and it will:be necessary for another
to be built next seaaon. But if one is
erected it should be single span, resting
ON solid butments at each end, so it would
not be endangered by high waters and float
ing ice.
