KDKXnownR LETTER. Mailers of I ii I e res I from that Rapid ly Growing District. The frame of the new butcher shop Is about completed, and the ousinesB Dy tne latter part -or xt week. The family covered wagons now passing through town come mostly from the north, evidently from .the Willamette valley. The number-from California has not been as large as heretofor during the past week. Mrs. John Botcher has been quite ill during the week, caused doubtless by .the late heated term. She Is de cidedly better at this writing. Wednesday night a searching party washout to a late hour hunting for a young lad named Oscar Nelson, The boy had before been devoting "all spare time at his disposal for sev eral days to swimming in the' South Umpqua jciver, and when he did not show up at home for ten hours his relatives became startled at his ab sence. The party looking for him got back home about 11:30, and had found no trace of him, but then they found him in bed and sound asleep. His story was that he had been playing with the "kids" and had forgotten to come homo sooner. It is hardly necessary to state that Oscar has not been forgetful about coming home since. Drs. Mouck, VIi.rU and Miller have been making repeated calls at this place and Winchester within the last few days, and every time they appeared to be In a hurry, and noth ing was learned from them. W. H. Morley's youngest daugh ter came near being fatally gored by an angry cow Monday. The cow was supposed to be very gentle, but on this occasion the child got before the animal and was butted over with com slderable force. Before the cow could use her horns, an older sister rushed to the rescue and drove the nngry i brute away. Outside the shock of the butting and the loss of one of her teeth, the child suffered no in jury, but she would have undoubt edly suffered a horrible death had it not been for this prompt action of her brave sister. ! Mrs. B. O. Roe. of Uoseburg. is j visiting her father and mother. Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Flmllny, in F.den bower. The house occupied by H. W. Pen key, who is caring for the young chickens and turkeys on Hannon & Pa'tton's place, was entered while he was away to the store Monday morn ing to procure feed for his broods and thoroughly ransacked. The parties must have known how long ( he would be absent, for thoy cooked and eat a meal, leaving all the dishes and cooking utenslle dirty, stole all of his tobacco and carried off a note for the last payment on some prop erly lately sold by Mr. Pankey. The note will be worthless to anyone but the owner, as he says he will never give a deed until he gets his mouey The German, who was reported to have committed suicide by drown ing is thought to have been In Kden- bower Friday morning. An indivi dual answering his description ap plied to the county home for indig ents for something to eat and a place to sleep, which was given hira by Superlnndent Flndlay. Atter he ate his supper he told several of the inmates he intended to apply to the county judgefor admission to the home next morning, which he did not do, and if he was refused he would drown himself In the river. If it was the man, the coroner who buried him can establish the fact be yond doubt, as the man had a very sore leg, one of his legs having a dis gusting sore between the ankle and the knee joint. The citizens of Edenbower think they are not being fairly treated In school matters. Many of their chil dren are compelled to tramp through all kinds of "weather two miles to school, when this could be avoided and but justice done to the children and their parents If the present school was enlarged and higher grades than are at present taught. Many believe that much of the con gestion reported In the public schools of Roseburg might be thus relieved and Justice be done everybody. Florence, the youngest daughter cl Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Flnlay Is quite sick with what Dr. Seely, who is attending, pronounces a severe at tack of Indigestion. JASPER. COLKS YALLKY XOXSKXKi:. .
