Crushed to Death.

EUGENE, Feb. 8.-Stanley Brewster, a
single man, about thirty years of age,
was killed last evening about mile
northeast of Eugene, while hauling
wood. He left home in the afternoon
to get load of wood, and when night
came and he did not return a searching
party was sent out. He was found in
the woods under the left front wheel of
his wagon. Appearances indicate that
he had been thrown from his load of
wood while crossing rut, and pitched
headforemost between the singletree and
the horse on the left side. He was
caught under the wheel, and when
found about midnight, was lying face
down with the wheel of the loaded
wagon resting on his back. He had
held to the lines, which were bound
under him, preventing the horses from
going further, and being unable to back
the wagon out of the rut they had stood
there for seven or eight hours. Coroner
Cheshire went to the scene of the acci-
dent, but did not consider an inquest
necessary. He says death must have
been almost instantaneous.
