Murder in Grant County.

The Fossil Journal reports brutal
murder committed last Sunday at
Buckhorn, in Grant county. the victim
qeing a sheepmaD named Artman, and
the murderer man named Ed. Muir
ply, alias George Mooney, who was en-
ployed by Artman as camp-tender.
Without any known provocation, Mnr
ply woke Artman up at midnight and
fred three shots into him, killing him
instantly. Herman Frost was sleeping
with Artman, and he crawled out under
the back of the tent and ran to Ben Ire
monger's for help. When they reached
the spot the murderer had gone, leaving
his gun, which he had broken over the
head of the murdered man. He had
also cut one of the dead mans legs in
two with an axe.
The murderer got clear away at the
time, but was afterwards run down and
killed, as will be seen by the following
account sent us by Justice Martin of Pop
lar: Constable w. B. Cowne of Day
vile got warrant and started in pur-
suit. They came up with him on the
John Day river on the 30th. The first
intimation they had of his whereabouts
was a couple of shots from Winchester
fred at them from the cover of a thicket.
Here Murphy kept posse OF 20 men at
bay until midnight on the night of July
| End, when he made break from cover,
and was killed. He had gone all this
time, nearly three days and nights, with
the thermometer registering over 100 in
the shade during the day, without food
or water, and had not spoken word,
though repeatedly called on to surrender.
An inquest was held, and verdict OF
justifable killing was brought in.''
1t is supposed that the murderer was
sane. A year and half ago, within a
few miles of where Artman was so
cruelty done to death, Jack Ham blet
murdered Ben Gammie. Hamblet also
fed to the river, and also fired on q
posse that was pursuing him, but after
lodging the onicers few days along the
river, he finally got clear away, notwith
standing there was and is large reward
offered for his capture.

Dufur have taken lively interest in the
matter and are trying to gain back the
trade at present diverted to Albany.
They are going soon to present the case
to The Dalles Commercial Club and the
county court, and should receive every
encouragement. n
All mail leaving The Dalles for Port
land is placed aboard the east-bound
train. It is transferred to the west
bound at Blalocks, or wherever the
meeting point of the two trains is. The
reason fer this change is to give the
mailing clerk on the train more time to
sort the mail, and causes no delay in
the delivery of mail.
The indianapolis Sentinel says OF the
lecturer who lectures at the Christian
church Monday night: "Mr. Davis is
one of the youngest lecturers on the
American platform. But there is one
thing particularly noticeable about him,
which older speakers might proitably
initiate, and that is the clearness of his
enunciation. He handled the subject
admirably, and pleased the audience
gathered to hear him."
Mrs. w. H. II. Dufur was stricken
down with nervous prostration at the
farm yesterday. She was in apparently
her usual health in the early morning.
About Z 80 she entered her milk house
and was discovered fifteen minutes later
lying PROSTATE on the floor. She was
picked up and placed in bed and DIR.
Slayback summoned. The doctor and
the family worked incessantly with her
until 8 o'clock in the evening, when she
became easier. Atone time her life was
despalred of. The trouble is attributed
to the heat and to an affection of the
spine and brain.

THE o. r. & N. SOLD.
P Purchased BY the Reorganization Conn
mittees for $9.437,25O.

The Oregon Railway & Navigation
Compauy's property was cold by Special
Master Commissioner Knapp at Fair
view yesterday at noon for 50, ,437 ,25o,
which was the bid offered by the pur-
chasing committee appointed by the
reorganization management to attend
the sale and buy the road.
The representatives of the bondhold-
ers were Messrs. Marcus, Fairchild and
tlemen constitute the purchasing COM
mittee which arrived Tuesday from
New York. Besides these there were
Charles s. Fairchild and Howard G.
Tracy of New York. Attorneys w. w.
Cotton, Joseph Simon, J. N. Dolph and
others of Portland attended the formal
ity of putting up the bid which was Sc
cured by certified check. The party
of New Yorkers will go to Island City
and Teko today, where they will bid for
the Washington and Idaho railway,
which is to be sold under the same con-
ditions.
Whether there is a likelihood of a
change in the present active manage
ment is merely conjecture. In a general
way it is stated that Receiver McNeill's
control has been satisfactory to the
bondholdsrs, and that he will very prob
ably continue as manager. The ques-
tion of change is agitating the o. r. &
N. employees to considerable extent,
but none of the officials is willing to
