Held without Bonds.

The examination of Indain Jack,
charged with killing another Indian
named Jack Williams, was concluded
in Justice Bayard's court last evening,
and the defendant was held without
bonds to answer before the next grand
jury The examina tion consumed the
entire day, large number of witnesses
having been examined. The first
witness who testified did not connect
Jack with the crime, but from the
testimony of those before the court in
the afternoon it was difficult to explain
how the Indian boy was killed unless
Jack was the murderer.
Indian Jack is quite a notorious
character, and is one whom all the In
dians about Cello fear. Some nine
Years ago he was run over by train
and tad his left leg cut off above tt Q
ankle and his right foot taken off just
in front of the instep. This, however.
did not make a good Indian of him.
but seemed to increase mis- bad dispo-
sition, and he Is known as a quarrel.
some and dangerous man. Il is be-
lieved by the Indians about Cello
that he killed an uncle of Jack Will
liams some years ago, though no direct
evidence Of his guilt could be had.

WEATHER. AND CROPS.

Weekly Bulletin For Eastern Oregon Is
sued by the Weather Bureau.
The temperature averaged 49o in
the Columbia River valley and
39o over the Plateau District for she
past seven days. TIE rainfall amounts
to from 0. II to 0. .25 of an inch. The
maximum temperatures ranged from
81 Q to 60o and the minimum from
36o to 49,; over the Plateau District
the maximum ranged from 42o to 4So
and the minimum from 2So to $40
In the Coluno oia River valley many
correspondents report unfavorable
grain conditions, the result of the
February freeze; where the snow COW
cred the ground there is no damage;
where the snow was blown off, the
grain was frozen out and re-seeding
will be necessary. Much of the re-
seeding has already been done, and
that sown in the latter part of Febru-
ary and fore part of March is making
good growth. In Union county the
reports indicate that in some fields
where the grain was supposed to be
frozen out, good stand is now shown.
Flowing and seeding are very active
throughout this valley. Over the
Plateau region it is yet too early for
any farm work to be done.
Apricots, peaches, cherries, and
plums are 10 bloom in portions of the
Columbia River valley, but general
bluom will not prevail, even in the
valley for a week or ten days more.
The fruit crop is not supposed to have
been materially injured by the winters
cold. Strawberries are beginning to
grow and large crop, as usual is ex-
pected.
Oyer the Plateau region snow is still !
on the ground: it is slowly melting
and the ground is becoming thorough |
ly soaked, thus making good indica-
tions for the years crops.
Horses and cattle wintered we'll. The |
loss is very small and con nfned to To-
calities. Sheep stood the winter very |
we'll until March 1st, since which time !
loss has occurred, hut not much, If
any, more than the average.
The outlook at present is for good |
wheat crop. about the usual fruit crop,
and satisfactory results from stock of |
all kinds.

". ID. Jones Killed.

The people of this city wei startled
Tuesday by a telephone message
from Grass Valley, stating that anoth-
er shooting scrape had occurred at
Antelope which resulted in the death
of W. D. Jones, one of the leading
citizens of that section.
1t seems that bad blood has existed
for some time between Mr. Jones and
F. N. Spicer. Spicer. we understand,
was ordered by Mr.. Jones to remain
off his premises.
Monday Spicer was hired by some
one to haul furniture to Jones house
and while there the trouble arose
which resulted in the. killing of Jones.
Both men were armed and although
little could be learned concerning the
matter, 1t is thought the shooting was
done in self defense. Mr.. Jones was
shot through the head and was killed
almost Instantly

that she had passed another mile
stone in the feet of time. and that the
