Though reported killed by an ex plosion near Bun', Idaho, while work ing in the Snake River mines, Charles Pkaggs is alive' and. working, today. Three weeks ago ' local members of the Eagles' lodge received news , that Skaggs had been instantly killed in a mine ,, explosion. TeBterday B. F. Wade . of this city, received a , letter from the dead, so to speak; but perus al of the eplstlo revealed the Jact that the writer waa still on earth. . . : ' , It appears, that when the explosion occurred, Skaggs received injuries that forced him to the hospital for. three weeks, but at no time was there any indication of fatality. , Skaggs is now working in the hotel at .Burt, ' and asks that his premature obituary be rptracted. , . His friends here will be delighted to know that the "untimely death", wrs not a fact. , ' Pendleton, Nov. 4. An echo of the Sciiber bank failure at La Grande was heard this morning In the supreme court when J. D. Slater, representing the defunct bank and Its cashier, and Leroy Lomax of Portland, representing the respondent, S.' 8. Booth of La Grande, argued the appeal from the district court of that district from a verdict given Booth on an action for an accounting brought by him a cou ple of years ago. ' " '.' Booth had deposited certain sums with Scrlber and his bank and ' al though a portion of the amount was returned to him the account was kept open and never fully satisfied. ' Ac cording to Mr. Lomax, in the original trial of the case, It developed that cer tain certificates of deposit left with the bank by Booth had been fraudu-1 lently endorsed by Scrlber, and ' the money used by him, but little attention was paid to the matter at the time.

Martin, president of the Oregon Valley Land company, owners of the Oregon military road grant, returned last night from a three weeks' trip through central Oregon, says the'Pen dleton Tribune. Mr. Nelson continued south from Lakevlew through the Pitt river valley In northern Callfornla.'and down the Sacramento valley to San Francisco. He was looking over the ground for the trunk line and found the route a feasible one, with' low grades and short r miles" even than the present Oregon . and ' California route of the ' .1 ... i. 3 C?lUlfl,-U CULIIIL.

Considerable excitement prevails In Ontario and vi cinity on account of the fact that; a scum of oil is contlnlially vlslbfo! on the water coming from the deep well now being drilled here.' Drilling was begun some three weeks ago, and the well Is now down about 400 feet, Some delay was experienced for 10 days or more by reason t a break in the casing when thewell was down about 130 feet. The nifflculty was overcome a few days . ago, however, and the drill is now progressing at the rate of about 75 feet a day. ; .' One thing has already been estab llRhed, and that Is that the shale here carries oil. That means that If a sand Is found below the shale oil will be found in great quantities, as a sand bed ia necessary to retain the oil which flows In the shale. ' It is now conld- . ered without question that there is oil ,in this vicinity; whether it is directly beneath the drill now In operation is of course, a matter of speculation, but the drillers, who are experienced men from the California and Pennsylvania field, feel very much encouraged. They say the shale is more, oily than any they ever worked in, and that the inr dications are very good. , A considerable pressure of gas has been encountered. The careless light ing of a match near the well a few days ago resulted i in an explosion which burned several bystanders, and demonstrates that the well may be ex pected to yield a strong to-fr of gas, even if the oil is not forthcoming. Postmaster Sprol was one of the men who suffered from the, explosion, his right ear being severely-buned. ' The presence of gas in this vicinity has long oeen a matter of certainty. A, F. Boyer has for seven years heated and lighted his dwelling with gas piped from a deep well drilled on his land. It will now be a matter of but a short time until some definite knowledge is gained concerning what lies beneath the oil shale now being pierced. , Three families have recently, moved Into Lafayette.
