A meeting of the directors of Trinevllle school diHlrict was held Wednesday eve ning for the purpose of adopting rules for tho school, hut us therules were not com pletud, they cannot appear in this issue. J'.wry effort has been made to get tho school house in readiness for opening sciiool next Monday, but tho furniture not arriving as soon a was expected, it will be impossible to begin until a week later.

Almost one-half the flour that will be used iu Crook county the next year has been shipped iu from Wasco county and Walla Walla. Tbi does not speak well for the farming interest of Crook, but it should lie remembered we have had very roor crop year. Win.

He ha a lurge lot of cabbage, parsnip and beet which he 1 desirou of Willing. The town of Fossil seems to bo gaining a rather disagreeable reputation. ' Out- awerv run riot on tho street, and "painting the town red" is a favorite pastime. Charlie Vrenson shot and nearly killed one of tho "bad men" there lust week, which will probably have the good etfoct of quieting tiling down. Stock Inspector Webdoll has been rid ing over the county tho past few week in the discharge of hi duties, and informs as ha does not find near so much disease nmoug sheep as there was last spring. If the enforcement of tho new law has di uiinishcd the scab among sheep, it has certainly repaid the taxpayers for tho ex penso of enforcing it. Charlie Woods, who arrived hero yes terday, informs us of finding a man at lioi'k creek, Grant county, last Tuesday tuiiler a wagon that bad turned over on and scrioimly injured him. He wa Herman named I'eter Hows, who had been deserted by his wife ut Malheur, and with his little daughter was coming to Upier Ochoeo to hi friend. Crook county ha several ropresenta' lives in the insane asylum, the term of court just closed ha quulilled three of our citisiens to enter the penitentiary, at the next goneral election a representative to the legislature will bo elected from this county, and we already claim one member 11 the great colony of absconders sojourn- njj in Canada. A, verily, Crook county is coming to the front. Hneaking of Currin's conviction, the "ugone Ouard say : "Currin has been sworn into the penitentiary at last, and tho (ivo lawyers (probably referring to tho attorney who prosecuted him) have done their duty, wo are lead to inquire are there not soino more horse thieve in Crook county!" We aro not able to say if there are, but if Lane county ha any more sons to send over hero to engage in the business our court will dispose of them. We will bo better prepared to unswer the inquiry of the- Wuartf aftor next term of court. Circuit Court rroceoainys.

Statq vs L. A. Steffin, verdict of larceny, sontonced to five years' imprisonment. A Peculiar Case. The trial of L. A. Steffin, indict ed for horse stewling, which came up for hearing last Monday, was one of the most peculiar cases we have ever beard of, and has caused no small amount of comment. Tho prosecution was conducted by Judge Bennett and J. F. Moore, and Geo. W. Barnes was counsel for the defendant. Mr. Barnes conducted the examination of the jurors, and when the jury was em paneled .Steffin asked permission of tho court to conduct his own de fense, which was granted, and he discharged his attorney. In the trial of Currin Steflin.had been iden tified as the man Bachelor who made a bill of sale to Currin in Lane county on May 25th, 1885, for a horse belonging to J. 0. Taylor, and the same evidence was intro duced in the trial of Steffin. The only defense possible for Steffin was to prove by the bill of sale that he was not the vendor, or to prove his whereabouts at the time the bill of iale was givenl" Both these he failed to do, and refused to ask for'a eontinuance of the case until ChelM"'' sale couid be brought from fcugone. Steffin's actions dur ing the trial seemed to indicate in nocence, but the proof against him was overwhelming, and it is gener ally coneeeded that he got his just dues, though some claim they can show that he was in this county at tho time ho was proven to have been in Lane county with Currin. companied him as guards. What True Merit Will Do. The unprecedented sale of Bos chee'g German Syrup within a few years has astonished the world. It is without doubt the safest and best remedy ever dis covered for the speedy and eiTectual cure of Coughs, Colds and the se verest Lung troubles. It acts on an entirely different principle from the usual prescriptions given by physicians, as it does not dry up a cough and leave the disease "in the system, bat on the contrary re move the cauwot the trouble, heals the parts affected and leaves them in a purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in ;,hovr house. ' for use when the disease makes it? appear ance will save doctor's bills and a long spell of serious illness. A trial will convince you 'of these facts.

Arrested for Assault. , Tuesday evening Sheriff Wil iainson received a warrant from Linn county for tho arrest of Wil liam Fox, on a charge of committ ing an assault with a dangerous weapon. Deputy Sheriff Charlton arrested Fox at Joe Crooks' place on Willow creek Wednesday, and ho accompanied Sheriff Williamson below yesterday. The deod for which Mr. Fox was arrested was for striking a man with a knife at the Mountain House on Santiam ast September. Mr. Fox says ho acted in self-defense, and is quite willing to have tho matter investi gated. Attention, Property Owncrsl All property owners aro hereby notified that their premisos must be cleared of rubbish and inllam- ablo litter as provided by ordi nance. All premises not clearod of such rubbish within tendayswill no cleaned up by the authorities, and tho expense ot so doing taxed to tho owners. C. M Charlton, Marshal. November 3, 1887. Rather Mixed. The case of the Stato vs M. N. Gird, mention of which was made last week, in which Gird was held by tho justice in bonds of $300 to appear before the next grand jury, seems to be rather a mixed up af fair. 'We are informed by Mr. G's. attorney that tho matter was inves tigated by the last grand jury and no indictment was returned, and after ward an examination was held be fore the justice of the peace, result ing as mentioned above. Our knowledge of legal proceedings is too limited to justify or hazard an opinion as to tho regularity of this proceeding,-Jbut it does look rather queer. At all events Mr. Gird will have au opportunity of.elearing the matter up before the next grand jury. . , Sfl'enceJ to Seven Years. On Monday Judge Bird sentenced W. G. Todd to seven years' imprison ment for tho killing of J. N. Brack ett. While in this trouble Mr. Todd has tho sympathy of almost tho entire community, prior to this difficulty he having born? the rep utation of being a peaceable citizen and was well respected, his fate will stand as a terrible warning to others who practice carrying deadly weapons and are too ready to use them. We regret Mr. Todd having got into the trouble and being sub jected to so sever punishment, but it will undoubtedly have asalutory effect upon the morals of the com munity, and will to somo extent stop the indiscriminate use of fire arms in tho settlement of trival difficulties.
