M. Par- f he bill will doobtlesa be approved byf''" ' cspture of Ilo Ho by the INCEST HELD. The Coasting Party Partly Responsible for Ills Death. George Hoehn, a veteran of the civil war, died early Monday morning at the home of his daughter Mrs. Catharine Sumner, of this city, at the age ol 81 years and 2 months. Tbe old gentle man was thrown violently to the ground recently by a party of boys who ran into him while coasting down Seventh street. While he was not seriously in jured yet In his feeble condition the accident certainly hastened Lis death. Following is the verdict of the jury : "We, the jury in the aboye entitled Inquest, find after due investigation that the deceased's name was George Hoehn ; that he came to his death in Oregon City, Clackamas county, Or., February 13, 1899. That death was due to natural causes, accompanied with old age and injuries accidentally received from a coasting party on Seventh street, in Oregon City, February 2, 1SD9, and we, the jury, hold no one responsible for his death. "The jury would also recommend that coasting on city sidewalks be positively prohibited by the proper athonty. Sign ed, Hiram Straight, Amos Seaman, Frank Winslow, G. II. Young and R. D. Wilson." The funeral was held Tuesday from the German Evangelical church under the auspicious of Meade Post, G. A. U. Suicide. Coroner M. C.

On the morning of Friday, February 10, Miller sent an ultimatum to the com mander of the rebels on shore, notifying him that it waa hia intention to take Ilo llo by force if necessary. Xoncom batants and foreigners were warded to leave the town within 24 boura. Tbe rebels were also warned that they moat attempt no further beligerent oper ations.

This was done, and the rebela replied with a harmless fusillade Tbe Boston and Petrel then bombarded tha rebel tren- -ches, completely clearing them of their occupants. Within a very short time after the bombardment began flames broke out simultaneously in various parts of the town, whereupon the marines, acting aa infantry and artillery, were landed from the cruiser Boston, and a company was sent ashore from the gunboat Petrel.
