M r. B. U. Darling, whose place is on
lite lull lust east of the i'Ulsburg saw
mill. Mr. Darling had set out a few small
fires about the place and guarded them
carefully lest disaster might result. He
was careful to kuow that no damage
might be done before he left home to
assit Mr. Powell with his threshing,
but the smouldering ombers were
fanned to life and in a few hours the
untire place was one mass of flames.
Tho house, which was a handsome
residence, was entirely consumed with
everything in it. The barn, whrch was
filled with hay, was burned, and the
fruit trees were all destroyed. Mr.
Darling had haulod manure into the
orchard to deposit about the trees, and
the fire soon spread and caught in the
plies, causing a terrible beat, which
killed nearly every,lrce,
Mr, Darling is an elderly gentleman,
and the loss renders him homeless and
destitute. He had lubored incessantly
for over twenty years to improve his
place that he might have a comforta

the result of his labors have bceu swept

day a transcript of a removal of a
5000 damage case- against the North
ern Pacific Railway Company com
menced in the circuit court of this
county. The plaintiff is Samuel A.
Crosby, as administrator of Edson
Crosby, deceased, and the claim for
damages is based upon the death of
the latter, alleged to be due to the
negligeuce of tho defendant corpora
tion. ,. -
Edson Crosby, according to the alle
gations of the complaint, was run over
and killed by a Northern Pacific train
at the Houlton crossing of the St. Hel
ens and Mehalom county road, June
20th, lust. The details of the tragedy
were printed in this paper at the tune.
Tho railroad company is charged witb
negligence in not having proper safe

Bept. 8, 1898. Wboreas, matters of vital
importance to the people of the stats of
Oregon seem to require the convening of
the legislative assembly In special session;
How, therefore, I, William P. lord, by
virtue of the authority In me vested as gov
ernor of Hie state of Oregon, do hereby
direct the convening of tiie two bouses ol
the legislative assembly of tho state of Ore
gon. In special session at the state capltot,
in Haleni. on Monday, September 26, J88,
at 10 o'clock a. iu., ol which all who shall,
at that Urns, be entitled to act as members
of said body, are hereby required to take

Wii.ua P. Loud, Governor.
Attest : H. R. Kmcaid, Secretary of State.
A copy of the proclamation was malic J
to each member-elect of the legislature.
The governor did not set out in ths proc
lamation, nor would ho state unofficially
bis reasons for calling the special sestlon,
preferring to follow ths precedent estab
lished by earlier governors la reserving
them to be Incorporated in a message to the
legislature when convened. It can be stated,
however, that the election or a senator to
fill Oregen's vacant seat In ths United
States snate when congress convenes m
December Is one of the prims objects of the
call. Another is ths passage of a general
approprlotion bill, to give the present ad

ness properly belonging to It In order to
turn the states affairs over to tbe next ad
ministration free from entanglements en
