About the middle of September. 1ED9,
Mrs. Christine Edson, a woman, over 70
years of age, who lived alone at Gold
Beach, was murdered, her house robbed
and b.er body cremated. On September
19, 1S99, the mallcarrler who passed the
place, discovered that the house had been
burned, and an investigation resulted In
finding the charred remains of Mrs. Ed
son lying across a bed. Circumstances
pointed id murder for robbery, and sus
picion at once rested -upon Coleman Gil
lespie, a wild andt reckless young fel
low about 21 years old, who lived In the
neighborhood. Soon after the murder,
Gillespie went to Myrtle Creek. While
there, Gillespie sold Mrs. Edson's pension
check for $75 to C O. White, and this
check when presented at a bank In Rose
burg gave the officers, who were trailing
Gillespie, their first posltve evidence of
ihls guilt. He was arrested at Cottage
Grove, September SO, less than two weeks
after the murder, and confessed to rob
bing the old lady of the pension check,
but denied that ho murdered her. His
trial occupied two days and the jury re
turned a -veralct of guilty after 20 mln
Tites deliberation. Gillespie's people are
well known and highly respected in the
community where they live.

OREGCKN CITY, Oct. E. A few of the
striking spinners, who walked out of the
woolen mills yesterday on account of ihe

700 feet to every twor and a half miles,
and all efforts of the driver to stop the
vehicle were unavailing. The horses kept
up their mad run for several minutes,
their speed accelerated by the snow and
slush on the road. One of the wheel
horses finally fell and was dragged a con
siderable distance. The leaders soon be
came unmanageable and made a wild leap
into the gulch below. The stage turned
a complete somersault and alighted on

Charge Preferred Against Mrs. Davy

PENDLETON, Or., Oct 5 Mrs. Davy
Crockett was arrested today on a charge
of murdering her husband at Milton Mori
day, and lodged In the County Jail here.
The arrest created no surprise. The offi
cers fully investigated the case, and the
first impression was that Mrs. Crockett
caused her husband's death.
Love for another is said to have prompt
ed the deed. When the District Attorney
and the Coroner visited Milton Tuesday,
they learned facts which caused the jury
to return a verdict of death by gunshot
wound, not stating whether by suicide or
murder. The chief elements in the case
against Mrs. Crokett are the discovery
that she bought a pistol In Walla Walla
last week. The weapon was found In the
hand of the dead man after the shooting.
Her 12-year-old son testified that she was
in the room with his -father when T the
shot was fired, although she stated she
was in an adjoining room, and did not
hear the report
The case goes ,to the grand jury at the
