A Panther Story.

The Review is not anxious to get up
reputation for telling big hunt
ing yarns, but it is willing 10. give
the following true panther story.
Elmer Weekly, who herds sheep for
Frank Waite, Just over tbe Coast range
back Of Callahan's sawmill, came
across three panthers one day about
three weeks ago and quickly dis
patched them. Last Sunday before
breakfast he met three more on the
trail, and going home, got his gun and
Mr. Ensley's dog, and in very short
time had three more panther hides.
The average length of these animals
was about eight feet, all of them fully
grown. 1t is unnecessary TO add that
panthers are thick in the Coast noun
tains, and that sheepmen are hept
busy projecting tiocks. --Roseburg Re.

between Roseburg and Coos bay In
August last. 1t will be remembered
that note was found nailed upon q
tree near the scene Of the robbery,
signed Elda Wood, and threatening
death to any one who dared to persue

knew Wood well, accidentally ran
across him working on the Cooper
Mine trail, forty miles west from here,
nearly two weeks ago, and spoke to
him. Reeser came to this city and
wired Sheriff Carthcart, at Roseburg,
who came up here and deputized

he told parties that he robbed a
Chinese camp between here and Rose

An Old Game.

HEPPNER, Or, Sept. 27.--An old
way of raising money by the hobo
tribe was successfully put into irac-
tice here yesterday. Two men and a
youth of eighteen came up the Hep
pner branch. The two men stopped
on the outskirts of town and sent the
boy into town to "make the play.n
He bad his arm In sling, and 30 fixed
that II looked as if 1t might be very
bad arm. He represented that he had
relatives in Ashland, and he had no
means by which he could get to them.
Our city marshal at once became in
terested and took up collection Of $40
in about as many minutes and gave IL
to the boy, who, in place Of going to
Ashland. met bis pals and "whacked
up" His arm was burned and fixed
up olook as bad as possible. Their
custom was, whenever they struck a
new town, to reburn the old sore. To-
day the marshal arrested the trio, and
will probably put them to work on the
streets tomorrow.

Wednesday night the south bound
train met with quite catastrophe
near Rowland. The morning train
had dropped few fats to be loaded
with steel rails during the day and the
evening train was to take them up.
In loading the cars one Of them had
been moved north some distance, and
as consequence the engineer was
mistaken as to the location, and Ier-
mitted his train to dash into the car at
a lively rate. The fat was sent half
mile down the track, the rails were
scattered promiscuouely, the engine
was badly disabled, the passengers
were severely shaken, and the train
men almost frightened to death. A
messenger was sent to Harrisburg to
telegraph for another engine, which
arrived from Albany about midnight.
The wrecked engine was taken
through Brownsville Thursday morn
ing enroute to the shops. A new COW
catcher, new boiler head, and numer-
Gus other repairs will be necessary.
Mr.. Mcclure passed up the road last
evening, for the purpose Of investigat-
ing the matter, and ascertain, fpossi-

probably lose his position, but who we

Mrs. Lottie Hannah is Under Arrest
for Shooting at Mrs. Emma Hi
att. Jealousy the Cause.
In Mans Attire.

Last Thursday night woman by
the name Of Mrs. Lottie Hiatt-a d.
vorced woman--was shot at her
mothers home, near the Jordan valley
store, In this county. Mrs. Emma
Hannah, wife Of John Hannah, who
has lived In that vicinity for twenty
five years, is charged with the crime.
Below Is the facts in the case as pub
lshed in the Albany Herald.
When Sheriff McFeron reached Scio
on his way to the scene Of the crime,
he took with him Deputy Sheriff Will
liam Brenner, Of that place. They
reached Mrs. Hiatt's house early Ia
the forenoon and found her unconsci-
GUS, with two bullet holds in her head.
On questioning the family, the little
girl said that the assassin wore long
hair done up in coil on the hack Of
the head, and suspicion at once point
ed to the fact that the assailant was q
woman, and was their neighbor, Mrs.
Hinpah. A woman's tracks were
found going to and coming from the
house. The ofiicers drove to the Ham
nah farm mile distant aud question
ed members of the fan lily separately.
From all the information obtained 1t
was learned that the shooting was
done by Mrs. Hannah, and that she
was goaded into committing the rash
act through jealousy caused by the at
tentions paid by her husband TO the
Hiatt woman.
7 On Thursday evening Hannah and
shis sons worked until late in q field
near the house. A Aiittle before dark,
Mrs. Hannah sent the email children
out TO them, then donned a mans at
tire, walked to the house Of Mrs.
Hiatt. She appeared at the door rep
resenting herself as book agent, but
Immediately drew revolver and be.
gan shooting at Mrs. Hiatt. Five
shots were fired, two of which took
effect producing fatal wounds. The
stricken wonlan's aged mother seized.
q stick Of stoyewood and struck her In
the face. Her false mustache, hat and
spectacles fell off and she beat q hasty
retreat.
AT her house the officers found the
coat she wore with blood marks on it,
and the revolver with which she did
the shooting. The hat left at the
scene Of the shooting was recognized
as belonging to Mrs. Hannah's son.
The accused bad been heard to
threaten the life Of the Hiatt woman,
because of alleged undue intimacy
with her husband, and she admitted
enough to show that she did the shoot
ing, but she and her husband now
deny that she was away from home
that evening at all.
Her examination was postponed un-
III Monday. The physicians who
were summoned say that Mrs. Hiatt
cannot possibly live. 1oth are middle
aged women. Mrs. Hiatt has been
divorced from two husbands. One Of
them, William II. Hiatt, is engineer
in.the sawmill at Niagara. Mrs. Han
nah bears on her face the marks Of the
blow from the stick Of wood IN the
hands of Mrs; Hiatt's mother, Mrs.
Holman.

Fate OF Lii Hung Changes AssaiIant
a Severe One

Fate OF Lii Hung Changes Assailant
a Severe One.
WASHINGTON, April LIT is ex-
pected at the Japanese legation, that
the young Japanese who shot Ii Hung
Chang probably will be sent to the
mines of Northern Japan to serve his
life sentence. The locality is much
like Siberia, and g. sentence there is
dreaded by the Japanese as a little
short of death. The unofficial re-
ports of the sentence make no refer
ence to the trial or conviction. 1t is
understood to be a civil trial, as a
military trial would have resulted in
death. When the Japanese summarily
punish those who attempted the lifu
of the Russian crown prince, it raised
an agitation. in the Japanese parlia-
ment, as the government was accused
of cfowding the trial and not accord
Ing the usual rights of defense, in the
desire to make amends to Russia. In
the present case the speedy trial is
accounted for by the fact that the Of
tense is regarded as one against the
government of Japan, and therefore
reasonable. DR.. Schriba's report on
Ii Hung Chang's wound is regarded
by the Japanese legation as assuring
his recovery. Schriba is one of Ger
many's most distinguished surgeons,
who have entered into the service OF
Japan.
