A Tragedy at Eugene Child Found in i
. . - ' . Time to Save
5 Corvallis recently had its trage
dy that startled the state, and that
called out comment, sparing and
unsparing. In a tragedy that from
the standpoint of terrible condi
tions is far more tragical than the
Corvallis event, but which from the
..commonness of its occurrence never
challenges; so much comment, Eu
gene now comes to the front with
a sickening story of wrong doing.
It is an attempt at child murder, in
which a young girl, in order to hide
her shame, leaves her new-born
babe to die in the woods. f In it a
guilty scoundrel' is screened, the
whole s making- a story . beside
which, barring , the loss of life, the
flying bullets in the Corvallis affair
present conditions less melancholy
than are the details of the Eugene
story. , As told by the Register,
the Eugene affair is as follows:
With the salt tears gushing from
its pitiful eyes of blue and the sun
gleaming upon its pink little body.
L. M; Beebe found a new-born girl
baby about 7:30 last evening hid-!
den in a dense clamp of Underbrush
on the river bank a short distance
below- the Barker sawmill. Mr.
Beebe, who, resides ih the vicinity,
was looking for his cow at the time,
and was attracted to the spot by the
plaintive wailing of the wait, l he
unnatural mother in order to hide
her shame had placed the little one
in the thicket of tangled shrubbery
without' placing a garment about
it. and i its tender little . body was
scratched and torn with brambles
and bruised by; ;the rough earth.
When found, the child had proba
bly la n in its hiding , place three
hours, and had almost succumbed
to exposure. Tender matronly
arms bore the little pink bundle of
femininity to the home of Dr. Hen
ry Hopkins, e Restoratives were ap
plied and the good Samaritans were
rewarded by seeing the infant sub
side into the peaceful slumber of
babyhood. ' i.-'V .
Officers were detailed on the case.
and although they ; would give out
no statement, it is intimated that
tbey have a strong clue to the iden
tity of the girl who gave illegiti
mate birth to the babe and some
sensational disclosures will result
in the next 12 hours.

The funeral of Joseph Harlan oc
curred at 10 yesterday morning

Mr. Harlan died at 3-30 o'clock

not disease, but a gradual ebbing of
he vital powers. The funeral
service was conducted by Rev.
Handsaker, of the Christian de
nomination, in which the deceased
held membership. The interment
was in Odd Fellows cemetery. -

Corvallis R. F. D.No 1,
A sliver of fir, 14 inches long.
and an inch square at one end, was
removed from the udder of Punder
son Avery's milk cow Thursday
evening. The sharp point of the
wood entered the udder just above
a front teat, and passed entirely
through. To complicate matters,
the piece broke,; leaving both ends
of the larger portion inside. - The
animal had to be thrown, and an
incision had to be made in order to
remove the wood, which was final
ly drawn away with a pair of
pinchers. When the cow was
milked next morning, all the milk
in the affected portion of the udder
leaked out as soon as "let down."
