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.
