AT JEFFERSON".
Salem, Oct. 23. A terrible tragudy
occurred today at tho town of Jefiei aoa
as a result of which the life of Mlfs
Lulu Jones, aged 1(1 years, is despair) dt
of.
Clyde Vaughn, a young man aged 18,
a pupil In the public school, and janitor
of the building, appeared at the door
of the school and told the teacher that
a man wished to speak with Miss Jones
whereupon tbe teacher gave ber per
mission to retire for that purpose.
After she had been out a quarter of an)
hour, the teacher sent a little girl to
ri nd out where she was and the cause
of the delay. A short search resulted
in the finding of Miss Jones lying la
tbe basement unconscious and almost
dead, ber frontal bone crushed In, as
from a blow t.lth an ax. Two dootorsr
have been engaged in trepanning tho
at. ill Ra.n f -fl A . U
entertained. ; ...
Clyde Vaughn, the supposed perpe
trator of the awful crime, is not to ber
found, but a large posse lsscourng the
woods hunting for htm.
. Miss Jones is a sister of Professor
George and Charles H. Jones, editors
of tbe Oregon School Journal. Great
excitement prevails in Jefferson.
bALEM, Oct. 24. Clyde Vaughn was
captured last evening about two miles
from Jefferson, in the direction of
Marlon, by Frank LIbby, a farmer,
who saw the fellow and headed him off.
He confessed to tbe crime, but gave no
motive for it.
He says when she came out of the
school bouse he tried to persuade her
to go Into the basement with him,
which she refused, whereupon be struck
ber a blow with his fist, stunning her.
He then made up bis mind to kill ber,
so be dragged her Into the basement
and struck her with the poll of the ax.
