The body of JoK.n Prel. tha sheop herd er who was fourd dead i . the mountains 30 miles east of the Toll Gale, is still ly ing beside the og in exactly the same position as found by Martin McCumber on Saturday last. The oilicers of Union and Wallowa counties could not for s me time agree on whose cunty the body was in. but it has been finally decided that the case is with in the jurisdict.on of tne Waiiowa county officers and fiay have taken the necess ary step to investigate the esse. Dr. Seeley. coroner of Wa Iowa county, could not make tha trip into the mountains and he deputized Dr. Dotson of Milton, by telephone to act for him. Sher.fF Chiiders and Coroner Hall, of Union county, arrived at the Toll Gate yesterday morning but concluded that the country 50 miles east of there was not within their jurisdiction, and returned noma. The body will, in all probability be buried where it lies after the coroner's jury has rendered its verdict, owing to the inaccessibility of the country and the bad condition it nas already reached. If moved at all it would have to be done on horse back, and such a task would almost be I impossible. I It ts therefore practically certain that I by tonight a mound of rocks or a small I stake with a lead pencil inscription will mar the last resting place of John Prel. SHEEP STEALERS AT FOIL (4 ATE 1 It is reported by parties who returned i from the Toll Gate last niht that not oniy are there men in t.iat locality wno I wouid steal a boy hut that they also steal sheep. One of the sheepmen near I there missed some sheep and went to a j -amp near a sawmill and inquired for in- formation in regard to the.n and was in formed that no sheep had beon seen. 1 That night ne returned when no one was Ion watch and found about 150 sheep j with his brand on them safety put away in a corral. Ha immediately put in a ; claim for his property andas tha evidence ! was so strongly in his fav.r he had no , trouble in taking possession of the entire bunch. -Walla Walla Union. ; I(E (REAM SOCIAL Tie ladies of the Baptist church will ( give an ice cream social at the residence of Mr. Wines. cornerUand Depot Streets this evening.

Adams Avenue and Greanwood A (HEAP CASE In the case of State versus Robert Wilkeson yesterday afternoon, the defen dant was discharged for want of prose cution. He had been arraigned on a charge of disturbing the peace at Hilgard 1 and as no witnesses for the State appear ed at the hoar set, the case had to be discharged. By order of the court the costs of the arrest and incidentals, was collected from the prosecuting witness, consequently the case has cost ti e state of Oregon nothing. At this point District Attorney Ivanhoe asserted himself and plainly informed them that unless all costs were pud at once in full he would procaed and either have a judgment against the defendait for costs or know tne reason why such proceedings had been instituted. He does not propose to have cases commenced without his consent or dismissed without trial, at public expense. The costs were all paid and the parties went on their way rejoicing.
