The same company owns a mill at Hood Kiver and another at Chenoweth, Wash. We have heard several persons ex press the opinion that the remains of F.mil Schutz should be brought here for interment.

Hood River ought to have quite a number of carloads of apples to ship this fall. Last year about thirty car loads were shipped and there should be two or three times as many this year. Next year thousands of young trees will yield their first crop and then that sec tion will begin to flourish. With $75,000 worth of strawberries and more than that amount of apples for shipment, the neonle down that way ought to be reasonably happy. Deputy U. 8. Marshal Murphy received a warrant from Portland yesterday com manding him to arrest F. M. Bean and Home, charged with opening mail belonging to another. This is a contin uation of the case tried here the other day before Commissioner Huntington It strikes us that Bean had better capitulate, the woman seems determined to have him and under the circumstances he had better marry than go to the pen itentiury though in this particular case we don't blame him for taking the latter alternative.

M. Bean, of which we spoke the othor day as being held be fore Commissioner Huntington, was dismissed after the evidence was all in. It seems that the whole matter is one of persecution instead of prosecution, and Mf . Bean is to be congratulated on com ing out on top. If the lady who put a notice in this family journal the other day stating that she wanted work in a small family and requesting those needing her services to call at llorrin's gallery, will call there heriflir hn will find several dozen chances to go to work awaiting her Mr. Herrin says she forgot to loave her address, and unless she can be found he fears bn will have to iro out as a hired girl to save his life.

Blind Tom In Town. Blind Tom, the old, original Blind Tom, who has been before the public for nearly 'orty years, and who is the musical wonder of the century, will give an exhibition of bis wonderful talent at the Baldwin opera house Monday even ing next. Blind Tom never had a mo ment's teaching, being Indeed almost an idiot, and incapable of tearing anything, but he has the most remarkable memory for music and anything con nected therewith. His talent was first discovered by his mistress hearing some one playing on the piano and discover ing that it was the little blind picka ninny, then 6 years of age. We append the following from the Cleveland Plain dealer : "The Star theater was filled last even ing, w here the famous negro wonder, Blind Tom, accomplished many surpris ing things in the way of piano playing. While Tom did many things that were remarkable, the most wonderful was hie playing of an air he could not have heBrd liefore. He invited any man in the audience to step on the stage and play any selection he chose and he would repeat it right after him. Mr. Wilson G. Smith, the composer, ac cepted the invitation and played one of his own compositions as yet un published, and of so recent a date that it has had no public performances any where. The blind negro sat down on the stool as soon as Mr. Smith had left it, and repeated it, every note being true and correct. He also plaved Gotts chalk's Last Hope, Rossini's Moses in Egypt, and several other numbers. A peculiar part of his program was his plaving two airs at the same time ana " . . l r . 1 singing a aitiereni song, jic mu - peated a speech he beard in ltu de livered by Stephen A. Douglas, after which be played a composition of his own'. Cleveland Plain Dealer, March 11,1880. Mom Ilrty Linen. MPricesjwUhin j-each of all.

I .area etotk of The following account of the killing of Hamilton by Barnard at Condon, is ; clipped from the Telegram, being its I correspondent's statement of the atlair : "Monday morning at 10:40 Myron Hamilton was shot and killed at this place by James Barnard. Both are res idents of the south end of this county. Barnard was tried and convicted here last spring for cattie stealing, and sen tenced to two years in the penitentiary. After being there a few days he was re leased by tl;-; supreme court for a new trial at Condon this month. Hamilton waa a witness against him, and was at sheriff wilcox house.

One shot went by and strnck the residence of G. W. Rine hart. Five shots were fired. Hamilton fell dead against Wilcox's gate. Barn-! ard then ran to the stable, mounted hit i horse and rode ont of town, waving his revolver at the citizens to frighten them back. A posse started in pursuit. "News came in late last night that Barnard was, at 2 o'clock p. m., twenty five miles from here, bis horse nearly fagged out, and the posse within a mile of him. Barnhard was within a mile of his brother Elmer s. Cant Zachary s and his brother-in-law, Brown's, beyond Butte creek and on West Fork. "The Barnhards and Zacharys are the same chaps tbst earned fame in connec tion with the Roslyn bank robbery. In dictments were out against two or three of them now in this county. "The coroner's jury leturned a ver dict of 'premeditated and deliberate murder,' and named James Barnard as the murderer." Order Groceries, Telephone No. 20. JOLES, COLLINS &IC0.

The case of which we spoke a week ago has filially gotten into the courts, making ite first appearance yesterday in i.i.tion Darin' court under the title of the State against F. M. Bean, who charaed with seduction, committed on the serial or to be continued plan, and extendina over period of th:ee years Justice Davis had insisted upon the pri vate prosecutor putting up the costs be fore he would entertain the action, so that when the district attorney moved to dismiss the action the court proeeed ,t m nnllert: the costs from her instead of making it a charge on the county Ijtst niitht the case took a new turn, being re-opened in the U. 8. commifl sioners court, Mr. Bean being again the defendant and charged with opening l letter belonging to another. This mat ter was tried belore womminmuuer Huntington last night, the court being in session until 11 o'clock, at which hour it adjourned until 4 o'clock this after mwin . The whole matter belongs to Multno mah county, If it belongs anywhere, which we very much doubt, and the whole dirty washing should be sent there for renovation. Hhe Will Pay Her pants. The election yesterday in Klickitat county, Washington, was held to decide the question of validating the county in debtedness. It seems the county has issued warrants in a sum greater than allowed by the constitution, it being necessary to make the issue in order to Monday being Labor day Messrs. J. C. Hostetler and Fred Wilson took advan tage of it to visit Tygh and settle a little matter of expertness in the lawn tennis line, between themselves and some of the players of the game at that place.

A letter from the secretary of Hobah lodge No. 32, I. O. O. F., to Columbia lodge of this city, received yesterday brought the sad news of the death of our old townsman and friend Eniil Schutz, at Canyon City, Monday morning at 2 o'clock. The funeral took place under the direction of the Odd Fellows, Tues day afternoon at 2 o'clock. Emil Schutx was one of God's own noblemen ; the most genial, the most generous, the most charitable and the most unselfish of men. He was a pioneer, coming to California in 1850 as a sailor. His first venture in California was in unloading ships at which he made money rapidly, but spending with both hands he saved but little then he drifted into the mines at Yreka, and in 1862 went to Canyon City. He operated a Etage line between that place and The Dalles, and finally located here. He was city marshal and so well did he fill the office that he was elected sheriff of Wasco county, at that time almost an empire in extent, filling the office two terms. A short time ago he went to vieit his Bon at Caleb being indisposed and believ ing the trip would be beneficial. About a week ago he wrote Dr. Logan that he was going to the hot springs and that if he was not better soon he would strike for home. Poor, senial, penerous Emil ! he has indeed, gone home. And at the glorious portals of the heavenly mansion, as he waits, unknown to him, the angels will see in both his rugged hands the evidence of generous deeds, ol kindly charities, of acts unselfish, of other's burdens lightened and other's sorrows ministered to; of love, and sympathy, and tenderness as pure and deep as ever flowed from out the human heart. And thece shall weiirh aaainet such frailties as he, being human, had, and will out weigh them full an hundred times. Uarnard Kill Illmaeir. Trobata Court.

Stockholder! Meeting. The killing of Hamilton by Barnhard at Condon caused intense excitement In that neighborhood, and a posse at once started in pursuit of the murderer. A telephone from Arlington this morning states that yesterday the posse had tracked Barnhard to his brother's house, that as they approached Barnhard placed a revolver against his forehead and ble his brains out. We had quite a long conversation with Judge Bennett last night concerning Barnhard. The judge had just returned from Portland and was at the Umatilla rapine fur the train, being bound for Heppner. He bail not heard of the kill ing of Hamilton, and was shocked at the news. He was Barnhard's attorney and describes bim as of a kindly nature, but disposed to be morbid. From him we learn that Barnhard's wife had grieved herself to death over his troubles, leav ing a haliv nf a few months old at her death. That he was devoted to his wife and Mr. Bennett is firmly of the opinion that brooding over his misfortunes had unsettled his mind. The dispatch in question states tha Barnhard said just before killing himself that there were seven other men he in tended to kill the dav he killed Hamil ton, but that he could not find them.
