On Monday last as Col. Hawkins was
paying a visit to Mr. Hall, his horse,
which waa tied to a post near the
railroad track, became frightened at the
train and ran away, taking the post with
him and also tearing down five or six
panels of fence. When the horse reached
the store he made for the door whloh
was open, intending, no doubt, to enter,
but Mr. Bacon, who was standing in
front of his store, waa onto his job and
wun a yen one could near a mile away,
with one bound he reached the door and
closed it at the same time. The horse,
realizing that Mr. Baoon was in full pos
session, made for the well, but waa foiled

horse any, for with an upward move of

Young Stock In Demand.
We are reliably informed that a Tilla
mook farmer sold his young stock this
week to some of the numerous cattle
buyers in the county for tlO a bead.
This proves beyond a doubt that young
atock is hard to get noia oi una year to
send to Montana, , consequently toe cat
tle buyers are hustling pretty hard to
get hold ot young atock. We chronicle
these facta so that Tillamook farmers
may comprehend the aituation, and now
there is good demand for young stock
for them to take advantage of it and in
sist upon getting good offers before they

The biggest trust after all is the county

earth worked to the limit and the only

M. a. CHUHCH BURNED,
Origin of the Fire "Mil Shrouded
In Mystery.
What waa once one of the moat prom'
Inent landmarks on the Columbia river,
lie now in a heap of ashea and ruin, a a
result of either malicious intent or crim
inal carelessness. The church, which
for forty-six years has stood as a monu
ment to tiie loundinu of Ht. Helens, ai
well as a land mark to be observed with
pardonable admiration on account of
neatness of structure, although obsolete,
it age and the conspicous elevation
upon which it stood, bss succumbed to
the ravage oi tire, and there is not an
old-timer in this section of country who
does not deplore the tact and lament the
loss, equal almost to tbe demise of some
true and tried mend. At 4:10 last bat-
urday morning the fire bell in the tower,
Just underneath the blnff on which the
oia cnurcn lor so many years, stood,
rang out the sad message ot the circum
stances which not only theatoned, but
were absolutely certain to destroy the
structure. JN early every citizen ol the
town responded to tbe alarm, yet it was
impossible to render one particle of ser
vice that in the leastwise would save the
structure from its fate. The precon
ceived work of some ingrate, some
human not worthy the title, had so far
progressed as to render assistance use
less, and small crowds gathered here
and there about the scene lamenting
the loss and uttering words of sympa
thy as if a human friend were departing
wiia me. iiiv lacv vi me ewnuuu uu
which the structure stood being so high
and Inaccessible, rendered it impossible
to accomplish any good by use of the
ore apparatus at hand.
For forty-six year the people of St.
Helena have been accustomed to attend
religious services in that building, be
cause it waa the only bouse of worship
in the city until quite recently. And
for this reason, too, there existed a pe
culiar attachment for tbe quaint old
structure. Many of the younger persons
of this town, and not a few of the older
onea. attended school in the building,
for in tbe year 1877 smallpox broke out
in St. Helens and tne ouiiaing men
used ae a school bouse waa made use of
as a pest bouse, and after the malady
abated, the building was purposely de
stroyed by lire and the church building
used lor a school room irom iv to ieoi
inclusive.
The church was built in 1863 through
tbe instrumentality of Rev. Mr. Berry,'
Who bad charge of what waa then known
as the Yamhill circuit. Tbe first regu
lar pastor of the church waa Rev. Gus
tavus Hines. This waa in 1864, and in
1805 and 1866 Rev. J. W. Miller waa the
pastor. The carpenters who did the
principal part of the work on tbe build
ing were Col. Trip. Robert Germain and
Mr. Burroughs. Many persona who
now reside In this vicinity contributed
to the fund with which to erect the
building, and some are yet living here

The origin of the fire la very much
shrouded in mystery. Several theories
are advanced, yet nothing definite seems
obtainable. The fact Is patent to all
that it was set on fire, and by no means
by spontaneous combustion. No stran
gers were in tbe town during Friday
night, but considerable drunkenness
and disorder ia reported. Whoever and
whatever the cause, an earnest effort
should be made to ferret out the culprit
and prosecute him to the fullest extent
of the law. It is a fact certainly to be
regretted that the building remained
month after month unlocked, and was
subjected to nuisances of all sorts, sim
ply because it stooa tn a miner out-oi
the-way place. Person with- bad mo
tives and very low desires are aaid to
have frequented the old building. There
waa no insurance on the building, bow
ever tbe pastor, Rev. Mr. Haley,
had made application for insurance di
rect to a company in the East, the
Supers having been mailed but a few
aya before the building burned.
Already there la a movement in pro
gress to erect a monument or some suit
able memento upon the site of the old
church, which is an excellent idea and
a movement that should meet with gen
eral favor and support. Subscriptions
are being received for such a purpose,
and no doubt a sufficient sum can be
raised to erect a suitable monument,

That Mr. H. B. Borthwick, of Ooble,
