TOOK HIS OWN IiIFB.
Peter Smith, of Caanan, Found Life
lees Last Monday.
Tbe usually quiet neighborhood of
Caanan, this county, was plunged into
a tumult of excitement last Monday
morning at about 0 o'clock, when Mr.
Sam Kinder went to the home of Peter
Smith and found that man's dead
body suspended by a small rope from
a beam in the barn,
Mr. Kinder immediately gave the
alarm to the neighbors, and be and
Charley Olaen, accompanied by Jus
lice Splawn, returned to the barn and
removed the deid body.
The corpse whs taken into tne bouse,
where, jn the window, was found a let
ter written by Smiih. and directed to
Sam Kinder, containing Instructions
aa to what be desired to have done
with his property, stock, etc.
The justice of the peace of that pre
cinot Immediately summoned a jury
and held an inquest, the verdict of
the jury being that Peter Smith came
to his death by banging, at bis own
hands.
The neighbors in that vicinity were
not murh surprised at the untimely
ending of Peler Smith, sinoe the fact
remains that on Sunday laat Charley
Olsen was st the house of Peter Smith
and the latter expressed himself as be
ing tired of life. Mr. Olaen advised
the unfortunate fellow lo go to the
hospital where he could receive proper
treatment, and not until this time did
Smith display any particular symp
toms of insanity, when he told Mr.
Olsen that he could not be cared for
at any place, and offered to wager a
large amount of money to that effect.
After the justice had finished bis
labors in regard lo the matter Measrs.
Kinder and Olsen came to this city
to arrange with the undertaker. The
casket and other articles necessary for
the burial weie ordered, and arrived
here by nighlboat, when Undertaker
Newell trimmed the coffin and deliv
ered it Tuesday morning, the burial
taking place that day in the cemetery
at Caanan.
The acting coroner, in his examina
tion and search of the premises and
remains, found upon the person of
the deceased $203.00 In cash and aev
eral notes for different amounts, tbe
total of the notes being about $500.
Deceased was unmarried, and bad
no relatives on Ibis coast, but the fact
was brought to light that bis mother,
sister and brother are living some
where in Missouri.
Deceased was 65 years of age, and
no doubt the terrible crime waa done
while in a fit of temporary insanity
brought on by continued aickness, old
age and general despondency.
The farm of the deceased is under a
very good state of cultivation, and the
general prospect for a prosperous ca
reer in farming were good for Smith,
who bad resided in the Caanan settle
ment for several years, and was pretty
well known throughout the county.
The premises are in the charge of
Mr. Kinder, as the letter left by bimtii
contained a request lor Mr. Kinder to
tske care of tbe stock and see lhat
everything about the place was well
cared for.
Conntjr Court Proceedings.

tax. Ordered lhat the sheriff omil

Sheriff Doan paid this neighborhood a

A Co., of Portland. .;
The Western Union Telegraph Company
is replacing their telegraph poles with new
ones and are using six-bracket cross-arms
instead of tbe four-arm ones now used.
Victor Dayet who (he claims) cut eleven
logs that scaled 21.040 feet in one-half day
in Brock's camp some five or six years ago
on a bet of 1 10, has been in this neighbor
hood for a few days. ,
A. A. Merrill was to Portland last Mon
day and now sports a one mowing machine,
this being the third new machine bought
by our neighbors this summer. This does
not speak vary favorable for hard times.
The Deer Island poultry yard is doing a
fine business, and ban 600 young chickens
not old enough for market. Mr. T. Sain
dan, the proprietor, understands bis busi
ness thoroughly, and is meeting with suc
cess. He can even tell what gender the
egg will hatch.
Edwin Merrill hat a fine field of oats
which he is harvesting. Muckle Brothers
started their binder last Monday. They
have quite an acreage to cut. Many others
will have considerable grain this fall to
harvest. There has been more grain grown
here this vear than for many years. Spring
grain haa done fairly well but winter grain
has not done very well.
Rst. M. Judy Intends to preach at the
school house here next Sunday at 2 p. m.
Tbe Sundsy school is well attended every
Sunday without any collection being taken
up, and tbe officers intend to run on this
plan without collection. If there are any
not feeling able to attend on account of the
collection, they do not have that excuse
now. There Is no one barred out of this
Sunday school for color or race or ''pre
vious condition of servitude."
Peter 8mlth, well known here, and a re
spectable citiaen, committed suicide last
Monday forenoon by hanging himself in
his barn. He was a well.to-do baohelor,
and held several minor public offices, being
the clerk of Caanan school district at the
time of hit death. Hia mind had been leavr
ing him for some time, and he finally dis
covered that he waa going oraiy and feared
that he would be taken to the asylum, and
It is believed this drove him to commit the
rash act.
The sawmill Is In much trouble again and
It looks as If it waa going to depart, but not
if Mr. Ri'imer can raie tbe necessary bond
to keep It. Every body stents to be like the
old woman whose husband and the hear
was fighting, "dulen't cure who whipped."
Keimer claims he hat paid for the mill in
full, while J. M. Arthur $ Compxny claim
there is still $300 unpaid on a f 750 plant,
and that for two yean they have not re
ceived any payment, and now they have
an opportunity to sell the property to an
other party and it appears very likely that
they will. , (

jority of those who attend a mechan
ical or agricultural school are students
whose purse are light, and a great
many have to earn their expenses
while attending the college. To those
the tuition fee is a considerable mat
ter. This will result in a greatly in

ihed, or all tuition made free. Over
13000 waa expended for student labor
on the college farm lost year, and-lhe
board has decided to increase the
amount in 1895-6. 8tudente who are
industrious and frugal can make their
way through college, though they
enter practically penniless. Several
bright young men walked from Coos
county to Corvallis last fall, arriving
with hardly a dollar in their pockets.
They entered the college and com
pleted the year, getting good gradea In
Ibeir studies. They went home by
Irsin, after commencement, with good
clothes on their backi and money in
their pockets. But tbey worked and
were not fastidious as to the quality of
work. Some of them waited on tables,
and one cooked and performed house
work in a private family. They were
not ashamed of honest labor, and their
fellow students were not ashan-ed of
them. They were among the most
popular young men in college. . In
such is the material of which men are
made.
