AND SAFELY LODGEDJN JAIL, An Iowa Postmaster Falls By the Wayside, Oiiant's Pass, Sept.2. The alleged slayer or Charlie Perry was arrested by Sheriff Fred Ferguson, or Del Norte county, Cut., mid lodged in Jail. Ills name Is Mclson, not, Nenlson, as at llrst reported. An Inquest was licld at Payne, near Waldo, Or., and the coioner's Jury brought Inn verdict or willful murder against lilui. When Perry quit work at the Waldo copper mines, Mclson followed him to Grant's Pass, and after Perry received his wages from the olllco of the cop per compnny, Mclscn then induced him to go back to Waldo saying that he (Melson) would give him tin Inter est In a rich placer claim. When II. II. Wood, who in charge of the smelter, was getting on the train at this placo to go home to Portland, Perry went to the station to him faro well, and Mclson was then with Perry. That was tho last Mr. Wood saw of him. Two months ago, Mr. Wood went to Crescent City to exam I no soino copper claims for parties in the cast, and on passing Waldo ho nindo inquiries about Perry, and found that Melson had sold Perry's watch, as re portod. .When Wood reached Crescent City ho reported, tho matter to the shcr!ff,who Immediately mado Inquiry about tho murdered man's watch and found It in Humboldt county, Cal. Sheriff Ferguson had searched for tho missing man, but failed to find him. About threo weeks ngo Mr. Wood was ordered to go and examine tho copper mines again, and on this occasion he again made inquiry after Perry. Wood talked the matter over with tho prosecuting attorney of Del Norto county and tho sheriff, who caino to tho conclusion that Perry had bcou murdered and that Mclson was his slayer, and that robbery was the motive. Somo two weeks ago Frank Gay, who did tho toamlng at tho copper mines, was ordered by Ferguson to take as many men as ho required and go to Payne, on tho Oregon line, and look for the body of Perry. Gay and his party tramped tho mountains from daylight till dark, and, tired out'ln the heat of tho sun, they headed for an old well to get a drink. When they got to tho well one of tho party saw an empty rltlo shell on the ground and ho'sald. "Hoys, let us examine tho well." Thoy discovered tho shoes of a man Just covered by tho water, and closer examination rovcaled tho body, head downwards. Gay reported Im mediately to tho sheriff, who lost no time In arresting Melson for the mur der of Perry. When Perry's body was taken from tho well by the sheriff and coroner It was found loaded down wlthrocks.and a bullet wound was found under the shoulder, passing through tho body and shattering tho right arm.sliowlng that ho was shot from behind. Ills watch was mlsslng,and his money and purse gone. When Perry was work ing at tho copper mines on Illinois river he got his watch repairing at Grant's Pass.so tho number cannot bo found, but Mr.. Wood and others can swear positively to tho watch. Tho body of the murdered man was In no way decomposed, so identification was easy. It is tho hope and wish of ono and all In this part of Southern Oregon that speedy Justice be meeted to tho murdercr.as murder and robbery have been more frequent In this part of Oregon and Northern California dur-, the past live yearn than In the eaily '50s, when tho native redman roamed nt largo over tho region.

Several weeks ago John Backudder, u next-door neighbor, had his atten tion called to tho child's presenco In the small, gloomy room overlooking tho court, and attempted to talk with her. Onco sho was caught talking with tho neighbor and that night her window was nailed down. Slnco then other neighbors statcj thoy havo plainly heard tho sound of lashes, fol lowed by the plalntlvo cries of the child.
