Qoroner,s Inauest,

A jury was summoned this morning over
the remains of the boy who was drowned in
Snipes' lake last Sunday afternoon. After
the jury was empanelled several witnesses
were sworn and testified. It appears that
the boys had been accustomed to swim the
horses over this slough in hunting the cows,
and last Sunday aohan W etzki and James
Nc own had been in bathing. Putting
their shirts on they got on the backs of two
horses, and while in swimming water the
Wetzki boy slipped off and was drowned.
McCown tried to grab him while he was IN
the water, but could not reach b m, and his
horse made for the shore. v hat caused
the boy to slip from the horse was reaching
for his shirt, which fell in the water. This
was near the farm of Nr. Henry Snipes, and
happened about 5 o'clock. Efforts were
made by Mr.. Henry Snipes and by. his
nephew to save the boy, but these were
futile of results.
The following is the verdict of the jury:
We the jury empanelled by the coroner
Of Wasco county to inquire into the cause
of the death of ohan Christian etzki find
that his death was caused by drowning in
Snipes' lake VIII lie trying to swim horse
across said lake, and that it was purely ac-
cidental. ION hclOY,

Ochoco Reuieao: On Monday, the 10th
inst, at about noon, the residence of the
Indian agent, J. g. Luckey, was totally
destroyed by fire, together with a large
portion of the contents The fire seems
to haye ORIGINATED in terra Gotta fue
connected with the kitchen stove. When
discovered 1t was too late to make sue
cessful fight against the flames. Those
present worked heroically and with self
forgetfulness worthy of all praise to save
both government and personal property.
Nearly all the furniture, bedding and
clothing were taken out, hut great mum
beI OF valuable books, quantity of
dishes, gla:s and silver ware aid all the
kitchen furniture aud utensils were lost.
A trunk and contents belonging to Miss
KATE Lister could not be reached and was
destroyed. At one time the Office seemed
to be doomed and the records were has
tily r-moved to a place of safelv. but
prompt and energetic measures 4verted
the danger. There was no insurance.
The loss has not yet been estimated.

An eastern exchange says:
little criticism mingled with the many
compliments bestowed op her from every
source. The criticism arises from a con-
splcuous illustration of what has long

by the Borden trial and consisted IN the
tact that scarcely one ki,d word was

degree of sympathy among some wo-

more sympathetic being than man and
one naturally expects a more lavish ex-

Two boys, the sons of Mr.. J. II. and
Mrs. Mary A. Thornton, of Cornwall,
Idaho, but formerly of awhile, Gillian
county, were drowned on the 4th of July in
the Potlatch river. We learn from the
Fossil Journql that Lee and Charlie Thorn
ton were fishing on that day, when the for
mer fell in the river and, in his efforts to
rescue him, Charlie was also engulfed in
the stream. boy of l3 years witnessed
the accident, but was powerless to render
any assistance. The bodies were recovered
by Indians, who dived and brought them
to the surface. In the vicinity of Fossil the
thorntons are well known and highly e.
spested, and the family has the sympathy
of the community in their sad bereavement.

REV. ". Il. WILSON.

The following are the remarks. in part,
of Rev. W. C. Curtis, in his funeral sermon
over the remains of Rev. W. II. Wilson:
Mr.. Wilson was the son of William and
Mary tWallace) Wilson, of Clinton, Allie
ghany county. Pa. One who knew his
father and mother says of them both that
they were remarkable for intelligence and
Christian character" can we'll believe it.
for such men do not often spring directly
from our common dust-they are generally
evolved from an intelligent and noble an
cestry. He was born on the 29rh of Janu-
airy, 1928. I can learn nothing of his boy
hood. and not much of his youth, but few
taken from an old college, class record.
brings him very vividly before me, and
makes me quite sure that / have not
guessed wrongly in some important respects.
The record describes him as tall, slim
young man of fair complexion, whose emo
tions betrayed themselves in the flush that
so quickly overspread his face. Gentle.
manly in manner, honorable and Christian
n his spirit, tender hearted, sensitive and
modest, and possessing the confidence and
esteem of all. might stop just there and
say that in all our knowledge and acquaint-
anoe he was only such an one fuller grown.
He was at that time member of the Asso.
ciate church, as / understand it, a branch
of the Scotch Seceders (Presbyterians)
He entered Jefferson college. Canonsbury,
Pa, in the year ls43. graduating four years
later. In college he ranked high as scholar,
and earned for himself an enyiable reputa.
tion as debater. After. graduation he.
pursued his theological studies at Canons-
burg. He was licensed to preach by the
Presbyterv of CHARTERS Oct. 18th, 1850. and
was ordained by the Presbytery of Miami
August, 1852. In 1869 he accepted the pasto.
rate of the first church Of Washington, Ia.

This what tine Astoria Herald says
about salmon in that locality: 1T is ex-
pecttd that there will be large run of
salmon commencing to morrow ana cam
merry men are making prepa rations for it.
Unless there is a good run, the salmon
pack on the rive will not exceed 200 900
cases, beIug the smallest pack on the
river. People are beginning t. realize
that they are depending upon the salmon
pack and when il is failure. dull times
is the result. Should the pack prove
failure. and Remington fail to secure
funds for a railroad, large majority Of
Asrorians will he forced To II saI salmon
and potato diet this winter The busl-
ness outlook al pres nj is not very fia,ter-
ing. A good run of salmon between now
and the close of the season, will revive
business, and a greatly to Astoria'S
future prosperity"

Enoouutar With Ed. Henderson.

Yesterday Deputy sheriff Jackson ac-
compsnied a deputy from Douglas
county, Wash.-P. NJ. Corbley-to Tygh
valley % arrest Ed. Henderson. The dep
uty from Washington had warrant of
arrest for Henderson from Douglas county
for larceny, and the requisite papers to
bring him back with him. They met
HIM in front of the store at -Tygh, and
Mr.. Jackson called to him 10 stop. Hen
derson pulled up his horse and told Jack.
son that he would go with him jackson
then took the birdie Of the horse, and
asked the deputy to read the warrant. He
stepped out of the buggy with his war
rant in hand, began reading and laid his
revolver on the seat. At this junc.ure
Mr.. Jackson requested Henderson to get
off, when he leaned forward as though TO
take his feet out of the stirrups, but IN
making the m yement drew pistol out
OF his shirt bosom, levelled it on the dep
uty and told HIM in not very elegant Ian
guage to let go the bride. He let go the
horse and at the same time reached be-
hind into the pocket of his pantaioon5 to
procure his gun. The weapon was caught
in the lining of the pocket, and before he
could get II out, Henderson's pistol was
discharged, the ball striking the ground
by the side of Jackson. This was caused
by the horse making quick movement
when tie hand loosened the hold near the
mouth The pistol was pointed directly
in Jackson's face, and the nervous motion
of the animal is the only thing that
caused the gun to deyiate from its aim.
As soon as possible both deputies fired at
Henderson. who in the meantime had put
spurs to his animal and was riding rap
idly away. ~Corbley fired three shots,
one of them striking the horse and caus-
ing him to double up rs though about to
fall, when Henderson jerked him up with
the bride and renewed his squirting
deputy Jackson managed to fire two shots
at Henderson, and he retallated by firing
three times at the deputy sheriffs. Neither
of these eight balls took effect, except the
one that hit the horse. Henderson was
we'll mounte1 !. and it was impossible to
overtake him in the buggy, so pursuit
was not continued.
The cattle were sold to Mr.. Harry
Moran. who traced them up until he as
certained they we're stolen. A warrant
was sworn out and placed in the ha-ds OF
Special deputy ,'olbrey who Immediately
rode TO the railway station and came to
The Dalles. He was followed by Mr..
Moran and Deputy Sheriff Barnes, who
arrived in town yesterday. 1t is presumed
that Henderson received warning from
some friends up there, and that he was
placed on his guard. We learn that the |
evidence against him is very convincing,
and he will undoubtedly be convicted. |
There Is no question that he will be even
tually captured, although he Is thoroughly |
with every canyon in Wasco |
county and may elude pursuit for some
time.

Robbery Near Lie.

Mr. Jesse w. Blakeney, of this city, re-
ceived letter yesterday from his wife's
uncle, Mr.. M. Spencer. residing near Lyle.
WASH, containing the intelligence that Mr..
James Cummings, his son in. Law, had b EN-
robbed while coming home from the boat
landing of S270 by two armed men. Mr..
Cummings and wife reside near Vancouver,
WASH, but about month ago came on
visit to Mrs. Gunnlngs' parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Spencer. and had been stopping on the
farm since. A few days ago Mr.. Cummings
made trip to his home at Vancouver on
business, and had in his possession the
amount named. The boat was late
that night, and in going from the wharf to
MIR. Spencer's house, distance of about
three miles. he was attacked by two men who
relieved him of the money No information
is given in the letter of the appearance of
the robbers, but simply the bare fact of the
theft. The denominations were, two one
hundred dollar greenbacks. one fifty dollar
greenback, one twenty dollar grevnback al d
two dollars ID silver. Whoever took the
money must have possessed considerable
knowledge of Mr.. Cummings affairs, and
also have been acquainted with the locality.
Ii any descriptions of the men had been
given. a lookout could be kept for them;
but, as 1t is, it would puzzle the keen obser-
walton of Sherlock Holmes to furnish the
least clue regarding their identity. Lyle
has heretofore been considered a peaceable
neighborhood, but such acts as this viii. not
improve its reputation IN the minds of
honest men.

A Boy Drowned.

Yesterday afternoon about o'clock.
wh,le some boys were bathing in Snipes'
lake near Rnwena. one of them was
drowned. 1t seems that after swimming
around for awh le. the unfortunate. lad and
one of the Snipes' boys attempted to ride
two horses across the slough. and when
near the center he fell from the animal in
some way and before assistance could reach
HIM sank to the bottom. Young Snipes
says the first he knew that his companion
was in the water was when he heard him
and before he could reach him
he had sunk below the surface. Th. boy
was a German. and he had been working
for Mr. Hank Snipes tor two or three we Ks
past. He came there with his father. and
the old gentleman went to Walls Walla.
He was aged about sixteen years; but his
name could not be ascertained. At the
place where the accident occurred the
slough is about forty feet across, and
only deep IN the center. The body was
not recovered last night, and this morning
Mr. Geo. B. Snipes came 70 the city and
procured graphing hooks and dragged the
lake.
