Matthias Jancigaj, the .Austrian,
who on tho night of July 11, .1908,
shot aud killed Mary Schmrokar, the
sixteen-year-old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John Schuirekar paid the penal
ty for his crime, when he was hanged
at Saloin Friday. At 13 :30 o'clock, in
the presonce of only a few officials of
the Btato, medical Bfudeuts and repre
sentatives of the press, the trap was
sprung, and twelve minutes later,
Prison Physician 'Smith pronounoed
the Austrian deal
JancjRaj appeared to ba resigned to
his fate, aud made no signs of break
down, the only sign of nervousness
shown being the slight tivitchingof
his hands. He was administered the
last ritea of the Oatholio ohurch by
Rev. Father A. Hillebraud of this
city, aud until the time the trap was
sprung, launching his spirit into
eternity, his lips moved in prayer.
While Jancigaj remained calm,
James A. Finch and Harry Daly, two
Portland murderers, who are . to be
hanged on November HO, collapsed iu
their colls in the death row during
the preparations for Jauoigsj's hang
ing' Daly was greatly affocted, while
Finoli broke down completely and
sobbed in a pitiable manner.
Jancigaj, who was an Austrian, 23
years of age, had been a resident of
this city for about two years previous
to his crime, and was well known
throughout the AusUiau colony. Be
coming infatuated with pretty Mary

Year Old Girl Did Not
During Ordeal at i&y
Gallows
On the night of July 11, Jancigaj
talked to several oountrymen about
havii'g trouble over a girl, ; aud tested
a revolver by discharging it under tho
suspension bridge. Later in the even
ing, h ) went to the Schmrekar home
on Fif tenth street, and gained access
to the room of the girl, on the second"
floor, by means of a ladder which he
found leaning against a oherry tree.'
Mary's little sister, Anna, who was,
sleeping with her, was awakened by
the intruder, and she iu turn awak-,
ened her sister, to demand the reason
of the visit, calling Jancigaj by name.
Jancigaj admitted .. it was he, and
told the girls he would not hurt them,
whereupon Mary ordered - bim to
leave, threatening to call her father.
Ashe made no move to go, Mary
started to run out of the room to
alarm the family, when she was
caught by Janicgaj, who placed the
muzzle of the revolver against her
and tired two shots, killing her in
stantly. He ran down the stairs and
remained in hiding till the following
morning, when he was placed m the
county jail. intense feeling was
worked np as a result of the tragedy,
and had the Austrian been found by
the large number of men who were
looking tor him on the night of the
crime, he would undoubtedly have
been lynched.
Janoieai was sentenced to be hanged
by Judge McBride ou November 20,1
but appealed to the supreme' courtj
This court sustained the judgment of
the lower court, aud the condemned
man was brought back to this oity a
short time ago and re-sentenced by
Judge Eakin.

Charles Mills, a prominent farmer
and fruit raiser of Hubbard, was in
Oregon Oity Friday morning on his
way home from Hood River, where
he hits been looking over ttie differ
ent methods of cultivation in the
apple orohards. Mr. Mills had with
him ,a monster SVolfor apple that
measured 117 inches iu circumference
aud weighed over 27 ounces. He says
that the only advantage Hood River
has over Clackamas county for raisiug
fruit is the higher altitude, that
makes a firmer apple. Mr. Mills fur
ther states that if the growers of this
county woultt only cultivate their
fruit as they do in the Hood Eiver
and the Rogue river districts, they
would have fine fruits He claims
that, the ground needs more cultiva
tion because of the heaviar rains,
packing it down. Mr. Mills is an au
thority on all classes of farming in

with a capaoity of 85 gallons. While
it was decided at a recent meeting of

the cart will be housed with the

made for manning it. It is the gen

the Fountain cart would be moved to

Dies at. North Bend "
The many friends of the S. 3. Jen
nings family were shocked to learn of
the death of Mrs. Flo Jennings, whioh
ocourred at 1:30 o'oIock Wednesday
morning.
The lady had been ill less than a
week, aud death took her away befor
many realized the seriousness of her
illness. She had oleaned the rugs and
carpets of her home with a mixture
of bran wetjwith gasoline. The fumes
from the mixture were breathed into
her lungs and she was taken ill in
a few hours afterwards with a bad
case of congestion. This was followed
by an aggravatudf ase ot inflammation
ot the bowels, both being the direct
result of the poison inhaled. Though
she was given cc infant medical assis
tance, she gradually grew worse until
death relieved her of further suffer
ing. Mrs. Jennings was thirty-six years
