was committed at Fox Valley, six miles
from Long Creek IN Grant county, last
Friday night about II o'clock. 1t seems
that abou; that hour two men awakened
Mr.. James Allen, the storekeeper, who
sleeps in the building, and asked for
some tobacco. Af'er being served MIR.
Allen turned around as though he would
retire to bed again, when the men drew
their revolvers and levelled them on him
and told him to open the safe. He did so,
and they then tied and gagged him and
took from the safe about 20 or Sl0OO
and left. AS soon as he could free him
self he gave the alarm, and search began.
One was tracked to Long Creek and ar
rested, and the other was captured by the
side of the road, where he had changed
b 8 shoes and put on new pair. The
shoes that he had taken off had patch
on the sole, ard the impression OF this
could be easily distinguish in the road.
For some time the two men have been
close companions, and were together
nearly all the time. One of them has re-
sided there for number OF years, and is
named Ralph Rider The other is COM
paratively a stranger, and Mr.. Greenwell
could not give his name. They were
both recognized by MIR. Allen as the
men who tied and gagged bin, and there
is not much doubt of their guilt, although
there will be testimony produced 10 prove
that they were in Long Creek al half:.past
10. Mr. Greenwell left Saturday, and the
examination was to be held that day. 1t
is presumed that other parties were ac-
completes in the crime, and these have
not been arrested vet; but the officers are
making a thorough search, and rich de-
velopments may be eApected.

Oounterfeiters Arrested.

Justice Schultz was awakened last night
abont IL o'clock to hold an examination OF
parties who were arrested on the train for
passing and having in their possession
counterfeit coin. The complaint was sworn
to by Joshua J. Love. of Portland, who had
knowledge of their operations and had fol-
lowed them. 1t seems that the chief of
police of Portland had been ON their track
for some time, and Love, on whom counter
felt coin had been passed, was very I'M
portant witness SIme days ago they left
Portland, and Love Was sent to this citv
yesterday to see whether the men were
following their business here. Whep the
train stopped at Mosler last night he i'm
mediately recognized the counterfeiier ers in
two men who came on board Fortunately
MIR. r. Beattie, United States marshal
was on the train returning to Pendletou
from Portland, haying taken down two
prisoners the day previously. He was in
formed by Mr.. Love of the circumstances,
and imm diately placed the men under ar
rest. Ohe by the name OF Ed. Marshall re.
sisted, and the deputy was forced to knock
him down with his pistol before he would
submit to be handcuffed. When brought
before Justice Schultz. acting as U. s COM
missioner, they had a handkerch eff in which
were fifty counterfeit dollars and valise
containing eight or ten, also some pieces of
carbon and a silver plate. Love recognized
the two men as the two who had passed
counterfeit money on him in Portland, and
the testimony being very convincing Mr..
Schultz held them to appear at the U. s
district court for the crime, and they were
taken below this morning. One man.
Marshall, is an American, about 80 years of
age, desperate looking fellow, and the
other, Geo. Nordald, is a Dane, about 80
years old. The counterfeit dollars are very
cleverly executed, and could be easily
passed on unsuspectIng persons.

A Fruit Fair,

At the quarterly meeting recently held in
Society, it was unanimously agreed, IN or
der to properly bring before the public the
fruit industry of the state, that the fruit
growers should unite in making a great
fruit fair this fall to show what Oregon can
do in that line, and after exhibiting the col
lection here send it in body to the Cali.
forn,a Mldwinter Exposition to be held in
San Francisco. In order to make credit
able showing it was deemed best to make it
a distinctIveIy state affair. The plan de-
cided upon was to ask every city and
county. every fruit grover and every one
interested In Oregon's welfare to contribute,
no matter how small an amount, to a gen
eral fund t1 carry the idea into effect.
Large individual and county premiums will
be offered to induce fruit growers to put
forth their best efforts In making display
The fair will be held in the city Offering the
greatest inducements, place and date yet to
be self cted Only a small portion of the
money subscribed will be called for in the
beginuing-just sufficient TO defray ex-
penses for necessary printed matter, post
age, stationary. jars for plttIng up fruit,
ETC. A small admission fee will be charged,
and if there Is loss after the fair is over,
each subscriber will be asked to pay their
pro rata of the loss, or to provide for the
expense incurred in taking it to California.
If on the other hand there is balance in
the treasury, it will be turned over to the
state cietv for use in the Advancement of
the fruit industry. q l Sargent, Secre-
tary, Portland, Oregon, may be addressed
for Information on he subject.

A Trip to the Warm Springs.
DUFUR. Ore., Aug. 10. 1893

DUFUR. Ore, Aug. 10. 1893.
Editor TINES -MoUNTAINBER:
On the morning of July Oath party
consisting of Mr.. and Mrs. F. NJ. Thomp'
son Mr.. and Mrs. J. johnson. Mr.. T.
Smith, Miss Nettie Hamilton, of Spokane,
and Mr.. W. II Stats departed from Dofur
on pleasure trip to the Warm Spring
agency. We were well equipped with all
that goes to make camp life enjoyable, for
we had planned a visit of two weeks. We
took dinner at Tygh, and after a drive OF
several hours arrived at Wapinit!a and as
old Sol was casting his last beams oyer the
surrounding hills we were reminded that
attention must now be given to supper. OF
course we did it justice, and no one had
cause to complain OF our delicacy. After a
nights rest we proceeded on our journey,
arriving at our destination at noon. 1t was
quite relier to rest here by the cool stream
after our long and tedious journey through
dust and heat. We next proceeded to try
orr luck at angling, and IN short time
fifty unfortunate trout were ready to visit
the fryiug-pan.
While here we visited the agency which
is eight miles distant We had the pleas
ure of meeting Miss S. K. Heisler. formerly
of Dufur, now a sesmstress at Sinemasho
The Deschutes river, seven miles from the
agency. was also visited. The ride thlther
took US over one of the toughest roads that
any Of our party had eyer traversed: For
distance of three hundred yards or SO the
trail was cut out of solid rock, and was
probably made by some tolling and perse-
vering people ages ago. Now it is as desc
late and forsaken as a desert, and we with
out doubt were the first for years who had
pursued that lonely route.
Although the Warm Springs Is not an
ideal summer resort for the romantic tour
ist, still it is not to be surpassed in health
fulness. Here was spent most delightful
week amusing ourselves in fishing, walking
or bathing in the springs. However, the
majority were not in the least sorry when
the time came to bid adieu to camping
grounds and return home, which we reached
Thursday afternoon. W. Ell. STATS.

B. s. PAGUE.
Local Forecast OhicIs

A numb.r of newspapers in Oregon
have carelessly published misleading
statements concerning the game laws OF
Oregon now IN force, especially as regards
the open season for quail, pheasant and
grouse.
The law as it stood before amendment
by the legislature at last session made the
open sea on for grouse, MOugOlian pheas-
ant, quail and partridge begin on the fst
of August and end on the 18th of Novem-
ber of each year. The last legislature
made NO change in this except as to
California or valley quail, which cannot
be lawfully killed now except between
the 18th of October and the 10Th of Feb
ruary. The law as amended now reads:
SEC 1913. Every person who shall,
within the state of Oregon, between the
fifteenth day OF November and the fif-
teenth day of August of the foil wing
year, take, kill, injure or destroy, or have

OREGON WEATHER SERVICE.

The following is the weather report for
the week ending Tuesday, August S. from
the central Office in Portland:
EASTERN OREGON.
Crops-Haryesting OF fall wheat, oats
and barley Is in progress IN the Columbia
river valley; east and sou.b of the Blue
mountains haying is being finished, while
grain harvest will not begin for two
weeks yet. The warm weather was Inju-
rious to the late sown oats and wheat; /;
but beneficial to the fall grain. There ap-
pears TO be prospect for general in
crease in the total grain product, due to
the increased acreage, though the yield
per acre will not be up to that of 1891
From special reports it is estimated that
wasco county will ship 100000 bushels
of wheat, an increase of l00,0 900 bushels.
The wheat is averaging Is bushels per
acre. Sherman county will ship about
again as much; the average Is Is to 22
bushels per acre. Gillian county will
ship about one-half million bushels. In
Morrow county the wheat is averaging
from to Is bushels per acre, and there
will be for shipment about SOO.OOO bush
els In Umalilla county the estimates
are variable; but it can be said that fall
wheat will average for the county p
bushels per acre and spring about one
half that much. The county shipped I'D
1891 100000 bushels, and this year Will
ship about two million bushels. No re-
liable estimates Can be made for Union,
Waliowa, haker and the interior counties.
Ihe grain IS not in such good condition
In Union and Baker counties as it was
two weeks ago; the latter two counties
will ship about 500, QUO bushels, possibly
more. The hay crop is good throughout
all the counties and the fruit prospects
continues TO be good.

Saturday evening about sundown Ansel
Hyland, son of A. D Hyland, of Butte
Disappointment, was drowned in the Bic
Fall creek at the county bridge across the
stream. The Young man and several com.
panIons had gone from Mr.. Hyand's resi-
dence on the Willamette to take bath in
Fall creek. At the time OF the drowning
only one of the boys, o. W. Humphrey,
was with Hyland, the others beng few
hundred feet farther down. He could swim
but little, although he had grown to man
hood on the banks of the river, but appar.
emily thought he could get across the deep
water. which was only very short distance.
He began to sink and his companion, Mr..
81 lmphrey, went to his assistance, but Hy-
land was thoroughly frightened and graaped
him when a struggle began between them
in which Humphrey barely escaped. only
loosenIng himself from the clasp when
nearly exhausted by vigorous kick.
HyIand sank and Humphrey at once
called the other young men and within ten
minutes the body had been taken from the
water, when every effort was made to re-
store life. But it was too late. The vital
spark bad flown. The remains were con.
yeyed to the home of his sorrowing parents,
the funeral taking plaee Monday forenoon
at ii o'clock. He was % years of age.
