news of George Harlow's death by suicide
swept throughout the community. Young

caused by remark of his father that the
young man had been too hasty in getting in

young Harlow struck his father blow in
the chest, and then bidding his sister good
bye took his shot gun loaded with charge of
buckshot, and turning to his father said he
had decided on what he would do. The
young man went to pasture near by and
shot himself through the body. His father

TIE STORM.
Some Heavy Electrical Displays Over
the Ciiy-NO treat Damage
Done.

Friday at five o'clock a heavy
thunderstorm burst over South and
East Salem, deluging the business
streets with water, but the heavier
part of the storm bearing away to
hills. 1t seldom strikes squarely
over our city, being mostly drawn
off by the hills east or west. The
damage to crops is not severe.
Rains comeIn the fore part of July
each year in this part of the valley,
and this storm is an exception only
in severeity of electrical discharge
and amount of water that fell.
The storm was local in its charaC
ter, as beyond the fair grounds at
John Savage's place soacrely any
rain fell. At Highland Park it was
very light.
1t was only local shower. No
electricity fell in balls or otherwise.
A COW belonging to n. r. Burke, in
South Salem is reported to have
been struck by lightning. Several
trees were struck but no one hurt.
IN THE COURT HOUSE.
the electrial displays were brilliant,
sparks flashed from the gas jets, and
filling the official atmosphere with
electric fluid. The county court re-
manned in session throughout the
storm, tho the lightning played
around it in dangerous proximity.
The special vengeance of the
heavens seemed to have vented it
self on the steel bridge and one flash
demoraIized part of the rail on the
Polk county approach.
BALLS OF LIGHTNING
were skipping around on the ground
in all directions in the brain of one
excited individual only. He was IA
chap slim enough of build to make
a good tip for a lightning rod and
should emigrate to a country whore
such storms are more frequent. He
would furnish fine, FURNISHED old
gold tip for lightning rod and has
q special attraction for electric
sparks, which flash from his cor
ruga ted brow upon the slightest
provocation.
MAN NEARLY HIT.
Frank Starbuck who lives in Polk
county was driving upon the west
approach of the big bridge as light
bolt struck the big cottonwood just
north of the roadway. He was
alarmed some but no damage, pieces
of bark flying all around.
A bolt of lightning split an inn
mence fir on f. r. Smiths land,
shatterjng it into kindling wood
At the electric car line power house
a bolt burned out an armature ofthe
dynamo, delaying trains for about
three hours.

DOUBLE MURDER AT MARION.
A Chinaman Opens a MOngOlian Shoot
ing Gallery-Wants to be
Hung.

AS the early Albany local came
through Marion, passengers saw on
one side aChinaman dressed in white
running away toward a washhouse.
Blood was spotted oil over his snowy
garments and he hastily cried "mur-
der" in the Mongolian language
which makes noise like boards
cracking when a house is falling
down. On the other side three pig
tails were struggling with fourth
who had 3s. calibre gun which was
going off at intervals with telling
effect. One of the arresters of the
murderer had two balls through
him, and the three dragged him
towards the train. The train men
speedily disarmed the man and bum
died him onto the train, and Mr..
Hunter Forsythe, who runs saw
mill at Marion, brought him down
to Salem. At the county Jail Sheriff
Croisan applied the interpreter,
found some cartridges and ten.
dollars in money on his person.
"You may hang me if you want
to-" was all Lee Yuen would say.
The district attorney went up to
Marion on the II a. IN. train to in
vestigate matters.
THE FIGHT
was to the finish, and all belong to a
new gang lately put on the Marion
section. The row began with a war
of word over a difference of SIG,
and at least two men are seriously
shot.
AN EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT.
Special telegram to the JoURNAL.)
MARION, Or, July l1.-This morn
ing about 5 o'clock a terrible noise
was heard in China house, and
soon after four shots were fired. A
Chinaman then came out and called
for help. The next that was seen or
heard, they all came out dragging a
man ward the depot. One man in
his night clothes YVES bloody from
head to foot. They were bringing
the man who did the numbering.
Looking at the man hurt worst, it
was found one ball had passed under
his queue aud struck his skull, pass
ing up to the top of his head; one
went through his shoulder and out,
and one through his thigh. The
other man was shot in the shoulder
and arm, but not seriously. DIR.
Hawk was called from Jefferson,
aud took the bullets out. One of
the most intelligent Cinnamon says
he got up and was getting break
fast, when he heard noise and soon
two shots were fired, then two more.
He went into the room and one
man was in his night clothes and
was up, but when the other one
shooting he put his
head under the covers and the bu'-
lets went into his back and head.
The other man had crawled under
the bed. He then shot through the
bed at him. He then turned around
to shoot at the cook. They then
caught him.
