Goods Drouth There now
but Lights Still Shine.

For the past "a hours, there has
been a drouth at "the club" A
raid by the authorities at noon yes
terday stripped the place of all its
"wetness'' What makes the case
more interesting is the unusual fact
that the county Jail, that whi1om
place of prominent sobriety has
become a storage room for barrels
and kegs of booze. The stimu1ants
were confscated by the authorities
under the law of search warrants
which provides that when goods
are used as a means of committing
or concealing, violations of law, or
words to that effect, they may be
taken in charge by the officers.
The ~confscated effects include
two kegs of beer, a keg of whiskey
and nine empty beer kegs. After
~con6scation, they were put on a
truck and carted over to the coun:
ty Jail, and stored there, behind
doors that "the club keys wont
open.
The raid was made by Sheriff
Burnett, District Attorney Bryson,
Chief Lane and James Horning,
A number OF people were about the
place, when the officers arrived.
Mike Kline among them. No re-
sistance was offered, and the booze
was gathered up without trouble.
A cupboard contained glasses and
a faucet for delivery of beer. The
keg from which the beer came was
down in the cellar, being connected

IN FIGHT WITH COUGAR
John Go1dson Ki11ed-Has
Brother and Other Re1a-
tives in Corvallis.

In a fight with a cougar, John
Goldson, a cousin of Henry Worth
am. of this city. was accidentally
killed Sunday. The accident took
place in the woods near the we'll
known Goldson saw mill. seventeen
miles southwest of Monroe, and on
the road leading to Lake Creek.
William Go1dson, a brother of the
unfortunate victim, who has been
at work at the carpenter trade in
Corvallis for several months past,
left Sunday night for the scene,
and was followed yesterday by his
wife. On account of illness, Henry
Workman was unable to go.
A bullet from his own gun killed
Goldson. The story of the accid'
ent was secured by the TIMES cor.
respondent at Monroe, and from
one who was a member of the
hunting party, and one of the first
to Goldson's side after the shooting.
The account runs thus: With foul
others. Goldson was out after coug.
ars. They had already killed two:
when the dogs started another
Goldson followed it, being a con-
siderable distance ahead of the 9TH

denly came upon the cougar,
which had taken refuge in a tree
from the dogs. Goldson stood or
a huge log, and from that vantage
point fred twice at the animal far
up in the branches of the tree.
Both shots took effect, as was af'
terward discovered, the second
bringing the cougar to the ground.
Goldson, apparently started to run
along the log, but as guessed by
footmarks on the slippery tree
trunk, seemed to have slipped and

was apparently discharged. The
ball entered Goldson's shoulder
two inches from the point, ane
ranging downward perforated
both lungs.
His comrades heard the tw,
shots first, and then the third shot
After the latter, they heard Gold
son shout. They hurried to tn
scene and found first the cougar il

quick, daring blow and because
he could be silent. After receiv
ing notice of the appointment
and instructions from the Minister
of the navy, he packed small

assume command, without telling
his family where or why he went.
The night before war was de-
clared he summoned the captain
of his fleet to his ship, they found
him seated at table, and before
him on a cushion was the gleam-
ing dagger with which the Sa-
muria commit harakiri or suicide
rather than bear defeat. Point
ing to the dagger he said, To
morrow we go to meet the enemv,

FIELD MARSHAL oYAMA.

Among the military leaders OF
Japan Marquis Oyama ranks with
the foremost as a great general
and strategist.
He, as we'll as all the other
conspicuous leaders of the late
war, was born in the Satsuma pro-
vince. His military education
began in Japan, but was finished
in Germany, where he was sent by
his government for that purpose,
in 1872.
In 1882 he became Japanese
minister of war and two years
later. chief of the general staff of
the army.
On July q. 1904 he left Toxic to
take chief command Of the Japa-
ncse army in Manchuria and we
remember how he met and van
quished Kuropatkin and how the
expectations of the Japanese for
final victory were fully realized.
Oyama won great distinction IN
the Japan China war as we'll.
The Marchioness Oyama is a
lady of charming appearance and
much ability. she was educated in
America. for she is graduate of
Vassar and speaks our language
fuently. The daughter, Lady
Hisako Oyama is 10 years of age
and said TO be one of the most
beautiful girls in the Empire.
There are two sons. the older a
naval cadet, the younger a cadet
in the army.
Marquis Oyama is big, power
iul man with large heavy head
and smooth shaven face, badly
pitted with small poN. He often
speaks of himself as an ugly old

career as naval apprentice, and
continued there six or seven
years as midshipman, but he
seems to have been determined
to complete his naval education
in England, and began the study
of the English language when 81
years old, and two years later,
was sent with eleven other young
men to England to learn naval
science. While cadet on a train
ing ship there he was distinguished
for bravery and for his quiet ways
and for wishing to learn every
thing, but no one gave him credit
for possessing any great talent or
ability, but his reserve hid from
them the strong character and
great ability that won such
victory in the late war. AT the
age of 30 he returned to Japan
brave, thoughtful, resolute man.
He rose steadily in his profession
and SO distinguished himself in
the China Japan war, that at its
close the Emperor mac him Com
mander in Chief of the Standing
Squadron"
Togo has been identified with
the navy of Japan from its very
beginning, and contributed most
toward making it success. 1t
was he who gave to the little yell
low men of the navy, the training
that made them SO efficient. AL
though he is much beloved by his
men, he is called the Demon
Togo" by them because of the
iron dicipline he enforces.
When the Naval board sought
a Commander in Chief, Togo was

fine character. His father was a
trusted Samurai.
AT the age OF twelve Togo be-
came the pupil of Saigo, a Samu-
raj, of pure and upright character
and true patriot. Under his
direction Togo entered all the
branches of knowledge and ac-
complishments taught in Japan at
that time. He is said to have
been very diligent student with
modest quiet ways and very Sc
rious, although apparently having
no more than ordinary ability.
But the strong personality and
noble character of his tutor evil

sion on his mind, for one of the
precepts taught by him seems to
have influenced Togo throughout
his career. when you see faults
take the blame of them yourself,
where there is merit attribute it
to others. Act resolutely and the
very gods and devils will flee be-
fore you"
After four years with Saigo,

the Korean straits by his chival
rous treatment of his foes when
captured.
When at home he lives a very
unostentatious life in the out
skirts of Tokyo. He is very fond
of flowers and may often be seen
in the garden digging among the
chrysanthemums which are his
favorites. He is also very fond
of music.
His family consists of his wife,
two daughters and two sons.
Both sons are naval cadets. The
Admiral and his family are chris
tians.
So great is the self denial and
sacrifice of the Japanese character
that Togo refused to write to his
family or to receive any com
munication from them, for he said
they must not distract his mind
with news from home and they
only heard from him through Of
fetal reports.
Such is the man Togo, who

Among the prominent Japanese
of to-day, there is one who is not

has won the admiration of all the
civilized world, by achieving the
greatest naval victory of modern
times.
Admiral Togo was born on the
22d of Dec. 1S47, in Kagoshema,
in the Setsuma province and grew
up there by the sea which he
loved.
But little is known of his early
