Death of an ola Pioneer.


Mr.. Edward Crate, sr., died this morn
idg at his residence in this city. He had
been poorly for some time, and last night
telt very sick. DR.. Rollister was called
early THIS morning, but when he arrived at
the bedside of Mr.. Crate be had passed to
the silent shore, having died. it is supposed.
from heart failure. Mr.. Crate was aged
about 81 years, and came to Oregon from
C NADIA in the employ of the Hudson's Bay
Company. He passed down. the Columbia
river in 1886 and stopped at Fort Wancou-
yer. In lS4s he settled on the old house.
stead three miles west of the city, where he
resided until few years ago. The old gen.
tleman enjoyed robust health until very re.

ceaces which were very interesting to any
one who had the least desire to learn the
early history OF the northwest. He leaves
an aged widow and family of sons and
daughters who are nearly all married and
reside in this vicinity. His death will re-
move one of the oldest landmarks in the
settlement Of the northwest. and there are
few alive who visited this region as early as

A Young Hun.er.

A correspondent from the North San.
tam writes: Arthur Berry, the 9-year-
old son of Lee Berry, who lives near De-
troit, heard the old dog barking across
the river last Saturday, SO he took his
fathers old rife and strolled out to the
bank to see what he might see. About
300 Yards up the river he saw the horns
and head of deer that was swimming
down stream. 4rtht} Immediately
opened fire on the animal and shot as
fast as he could, but the gun was a trife
heavy for the youngster, and kicked him
over few times, but he would pluckily
get up and bang away again, firing in
all seven shots, one of which struck the
deer in the spine, whereupon he swan
ashore and fsll in the shallow water at
the boys feSt BY that time he had be-
come SO excited he couldn't work the
gun 1t was fortunate that the one shot
that struck him. was fatal. The deer
vas very handsome specimen and
weighed ll5 pounds dressed, Arthur
will not speak to common boys now.

Railroad Accident.

An accident occurred to the west. bou nd
train this morning near the summit by
which the engine and baggage car were
ditched and badly wrecked, The spgiaeer,
Mr.. AergaH. was thFown fro@ the cab and
sustained fracture Of the arm; Fireman
Crofton was also injured and suffered frac-
ture of several rb,, and = man riding on
the blind baggage had his right arm
broken. We learn that the tramp had
several hundred dollars in his posessioL This
caused quite delay, aud the train did not
pass through the city until after 8 O'Clock.
The accident was caused, so we are IN
formed, by the rails spreading, and the
engine, tender aud baggage car were
thrown from the track without the least
warning.
tater ACCOUNTS from the wreck say the
engine, tender and baggage car were badly
demolished and are lying on each side of
the track. Engineer Morgsn did not have
his arm broken aud is injured but slightly.
Fireman Crofton was hurt seriously, but
it is hoped not fatally. The tramp had $llO
on his person and, as statei, his arm was
fractured. The wreck is raridIy being
cleared and the locomotive, tender and
baggage car will be taken to the shops in
Albina,

suear Beets tn RrIpiurn.

A foreign correspondent of american
Farmer and Farm Ne,os, ami other Ameri-
can papers, says that in Hainaut, Bel
GUM, where mixed agriculture has at
tained the highest degree of perfection,
sugar beets realize net profit of 450 to
600 francs (about 800 to $l20) per acre.
The average amount OF sugar in the
beets is 13 to IA per cent and 16 to lS
tons per acre is the average yield OF
beets. It has been found in France that
rich yields of sugar correspond to years
of great sunshine, and that beets are de-
ficient in sugar in wet seasons. The total
quantity of land in sugar beets this year
is 3,970,O00 acres, an increase of 100000
acres as compared with 1893. The ex-
pected output of sugar is 1851 900 tons,
or 433, 900 tons more than last wear. OF
this Germany expects to manufacture
1870, 900 tons; Austria, SAC. 900; Russia,
$4,000; France, $4,000; Belgium, 1885,
900; Holland, $1,000, and the rest OF the
world, 10000. The countries which are
increasing their output most rapidly are
Holland and Belgium.

The Lost Is Found.

Louis Gault. the driver on the Pilot
Rock stage line, yesterday brought to
Pendleton the welcomed intelligence that
the child reported as lost in the Tribune
of Sunday morning had been found, and
is alive and well. A diligent search was
necessary to accomplish this happy re-
suit, and the little one had been out in
the hills alone for 26 hours when the
rescuipg party came upon her. She was
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. C. w.
Ellis. of Umatilla, whose mother was at
the home of her father, Mr.. Case, q ran
cher, IL miles south of Ukiah, from
whose house she disappeared on Friday
last. When discovered she was seated
at the trunk of large tree in the bottom
OF deep canyon, two miles and hall
from the house she left. Her feet and
limbs were badly scratched and torn,
her shoes, which were comparatively
new, were worn into shreds, and the
poor little wanderer was engaged in
picking brambles and twigs from her
bleeding feet and in rubbing her lacer-
ated legs. She was only three years Of
age, and the joy Of the parents upon her
safe restoration to their arms can be inn
agined, as it was feared that if she sur.
vived the chillness of the night air, il
would only be to fall the prey of wild
beasts, Over 80 persons were engaged
in the search, from the time the first
alarm was given until her recovery.

The Portland Murder.

"Bunco" Kelly, one of the first ar
rested for the brutal killing of old man
sayers in Portland, yesterday made an
entire confession to the authorities, but
the particulars have not yet been given
out. AS near as can be learned, how
ever, it appears that Bob Garthorne
struck the fatal blow, and was ;hen as
sisted by Kelly in throwing the body
into the willamette. Phe grand jury
began an examination late yesterday
afternoon, and with the evidence now in
hand will undoubtedly get at the bottom
of the cowardly affair. Several arrests
have been made for completely in the
murder, and these are being held with
out bail.

serious Aceiaent.

Mrs. Votaw, the wife of our day oper-
ator, met with serious and extremely
painful accident by fire last Friday. She
had been baking bread and had put pa
per over it to keep it from burning. The
paper caught fire and in removing it her
clothing caught from the paper unno-
ticed by her at the moment. Finding her
efforts to .extinguisb it unavailing, she
ran to near neighbor, Mrs. Farmer, for
assistance, and she succeeded in putting
it out, but pot before she was seriously
burned about her hands. arms, back
and shoulders, some Of the burns being
quite deep and causing her much suff-
ering.
Mrs. Farmers hands were also burned
in her efforts to extinguish it. Consider
able of the lower part of Mrs. Votaw's
hair was burnt off. but fortunately hel
head and face escaped uninjured. She
is getting along as well as could be ex-
pected, but will be confined to her house
for some time.

should he Contentea.

Oregonians should be contented after
reading about other places, Mr.. Hofer
of the Salem JoErnat, writing from North
Dakota says; "Between the drouth. the
cloud-burst and the Russian thistle pest
this section Of Dakota is nearly destitute
of farm crops. Liberal estimates here
put the average yield of wheat at three
and one-half bushels per acre, as against
II bushels in fair year. But there has
not been crop of that size since 1891.
In the Bed River valley. there was big
yield. but that is only agarden patch OF
these two prairie empires. There is not
bushel to the acre of fax. Barley and
oats yielded eight to ten bushels per
acre, but no great average of either.
Corn that got up was fair crop-a few
acres here and there"

ton, says: .tMaster Eddie returned with
his father, Hon. w. r. Ellis. from Wash
ington, and was so big that his old friends
scarcely recognized him. While at the
nations capital Master Eddie was every
body's friend and everybody was his
friend. He became SO notorious that
his bright sayings were quoted by New
York papers" But if Master Eddie's
father does not keep Master Eddie's
fame out of the newspapers and keep
the praise of his brilliaRey from Master
Eddie's ears, Master Eddie will not be
worth the powder that it would take to
