THREE ARE FREE.
But Must Behave or Leave Town
Corvallis Boys and Jails.

Three Of the Corvallis boys who
were serving out sentences in jail
have been released. Stewart Sc.
cured his freedom by payment OF
such portion Of his fine as was left
after serving out r3 days Of his
twenty days sentence. Cameron
and Lyons secured their freedom
in another way, Lyons on a prom
ise to leave town, and Cameron on
"a solemn pledge hereafter to behave
himself. In case Of each, judg-
ment is only suspended, and if
either fails to hew to the line of his
|. promises, he is to be again taken
into custody and made to serve
out his sentence. The officers be-
lieve, and apparently with very
good reason, that more can be &C
comp1ished in thus holding whip
hand over the boys, than could be
done by exacting full service Of
their sentences at this time. It is
also understood that some 1eniency
has been observed on account of
the fact that Cameron and Lyons
gave evidence in court and other
wise with reference to the late es-
cape from Jail. The action taken
by the officers had the full sanction
of the district attorney.
Of the FIVE lads, Ready and Day
are still III Jail. The. former is
confined in the county and the lat
ter in the city Jail.

There was a hot,time at the reg
ular meeting of the, fire department
Monday evening. The scene was
occasioned by a movement requir-
ing all members to pay delinquent
dues and fines. or otherwise be sus-
pended from the department. The
manifestations indicated that should
the matter be pressed jtosthe lin
it.. the city might be found without
a FIRE department. The final out
come was the proposal of an am
endment to the constitution to re-
duce dues to 10 cents, making the
amount conform to the regular poll
tax that should be collected in this
city. Further action was reso-
luton instructing the secretary to
hand a list of all fremen in good
standing, either active or exempt
to- the county assessor and at the
same time, to request the latter Off
Ger to collect poll tax from all others
liable, as provided by law. .9

The case of W. G. Emerysga
FL. d. Barber, for assault of his
son Cecil in the school room was
called in Justice Blaser's court at
Yaquina, on Saturday at 2:2o p m,
says the Newport News. AS soon
as-the case was called Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Swope addressed the
court stating that he had examined
all the Witnesses and that in his
opinion there was no sufficient
evidence for. conviction, and that
if the trial proceeded it would only
be another bill of expense to add to
Eour already heavy indebted eoun-
ty, with no chance of convictions
therefore he recommended that the
case be dismissed. @G
attorney w. e. Yates, of Cor
wallis, who came overIto assist in
the prosecution, then made a strong
plea that the bearing of the case
should be continued, that he had
interviewed several Of the parents
land children OF the cschool district
and from. what they had told him
he believed they had a good case.
He also severely criticized Deputy
District Attorney Swope for ex-.
Hamining the witnesses for both the
prosecution and defense before the
case was called. rs
/ AT thesclose of the arguments,
Justice Blaser announced the case
dismissed. 30

As the daughter, Miss Shirley
presented a beautiful character,
full Of fidelity to parents authority
and wishes, anxious to obey and
yet finally driven to the stage by
ambition and by desire to obtain

was of finished character, and there
is no wonder that wherever she
goes, Miss Shirley wins respect and
esteem, both on and off the stage.
AS the Deacon Mr. Lotus presen-
ted clever character work. Mr. Nc

pHILoMAFH=AND INGLE
There is Peace Now-The Dollar and
Six Bits Has Been Paid.

SO far as litigation is concerned,
the dove of peace has one of her
white wings over J. w. Ingle and
the 'otheraover the municipality Of
Philomath. They law mo -raore
now. Ing1e has been paid his dol
lar and six bits, and the new suit
that was to have been brought to
enforce its payment has been given
up. The money did, come from
the Philomath council, or any of
the municipal funetionaries. and
there is no official recognition of
Mr. IIng1es contention. 1t was
raised by subscription recently by
Philomath citizens who wearied
of the tiresome litigation and dug
up from their own pockets to avoid
the new case that Mr.. Ingle was
preparing for collection of the far
famed dollar and six bits. The
subscription paper and the signers
toit together with the amount OF
their contributions is as follows:
One of the signers was formerly a
member of the Philomath council:
"We, the undersigned taxpayers
of the City of Philonath, wishing
to end the expensive and unneces-
sary litigation between J. w. Ing1e
and the city council, hereby sub
scribe the amount set opposite our
names for the purpose of paying
J. W. Ing1e the sum of $I.75,
amount of debt of the city to the
firm of Nichols & Holm, according
to their books. Also interest to

On the ninth day Of their weary
march the freeboOters, from the lofty
height which is still known as lei
Cerro de los Buccaneers, they deserted
the shining steeples Of Panama and
the wide expanse Of the Pacific. The
gaunt crew. who during the march
had fed on leather In the absence Of
anything else to eat. danced, shouted,
embraced one another and finally lay
down to sleep. While they slept, the
people Of Panama were in panic.
The churches were filed with women
and children, who, huddled close to the
affairs and sacred images, wept and
prayed; while through the livelong
night the tramp Of feet, the rattle and
clang Of arms and armor, resOunded
mingled with the neighing Of horses
and the believing of the wild oxen
which were to be used against the ell
envy on the morrow. All too soon the
day dawned upon the city. The pi-
rates rose refreshed and, forming
themselves into companies. advanced
upon the town, sworn neither to give
nor receive quarter. The Spanish
forces, consisting Of 400 horse, 2.4OO
foot and 1900 wild oxen, advanced to
meet them. The oxen proved unruly
and did more injury to their allies
than to the enemy; the plain upon
which they Unanswered was soft and
full Of holes, which crippled the move

tie lasted but two hours, when the
Spaniards fed and Morgan led his
men through the gates OF Panama.
Then indeed 1t was woe to the van
quished Men and women were re-
morselessly tortured to force them to
reveal the whereabouts Of their and
their neighbors' treasure Even ten
der children were not spared. Late in
the afternoon of that dreadful day a
fire broke out, and despite every eff
fort to stay 1t the city was consumed.
The pirates forced their wretched pris-
oners into the smouldering ruins to res
cue the precious metals they might
contain, driving them back If they
came forth empty-handed, and greet
ing with rlbald jeers and laughter the
anguished cries of the scorched and
manned wretches.
For four weeks the buccaneers re-
manned encamped around what had
been Panama. At last, on February
"a. 1871, Morgan and his men depart
ed, carrying with them 175 pack ami
mails laden with spoils, and 600 pris.
Oners devoted to slavery or death in
default Of ransom. The Spaniards had
looked forward to the departure Of the
pirates as some alienation Of their
misery. thinking they might at least
die unmolested upon the ruins Of their
homes. When they learned that even
that poor consolation was denied them,
a wall Of agony arose, 70 piercing, so
heartbroken. that even the pirates were
moved to a semblance of pity; all but
their leader.
The pirates marched away, dragging
the wretched Spaniards with them. At
Cruces a number Of the captives We're
ransomed; the remainder were taken
to Portobello, where all ransom was
refused. Many of the unfortunates es-
capped eventually for trouble broke out
among their captors and Morgan, with
his English supporters, stole away with
the greater part Of the booty and set
sail in the dead of night, leaving his
Dutch and French companies to con-
sole one another.
