yuitni1td in Air
Ami Andntaun, who resides near
I'roKrexii, wait foiitiil at the house ol
a man by the nan. e of l evy, on the
Portland mountain, Halurday
morning, with his In-ad suinded
from Itia wagon, hi feet having
caiiRht in the rark planks, and hi
Ixidy lurching ovir the wheel. The
tram, which Anderson had driven
out (rnm I'orlUnd, passed .ion
town early in the evening, Friday,
and he had evidently, after tiara
ing Ziontown, started back to Port
land on another road. It la nip
powd that be wa intmicatad at
'the time. The tam waa found
near th lvy barn, Saturday
mnrning, and hal doubtless re
in aitied them a large part of the
night Atibrftiii wait removed
from bin ril ua position, and wan
vet breathing. He waa iut in the
'barn and covered tip and later
taken to the limine of Hen Pattnn.,
here he wa vicited by lr. K. M.
Itobinmui, who at once said that
the matt waa too far gone to lie re
uacitaUd Kwtoratives wera niven
but too 10 avail, and Anderson
oon panned away.
Anderson was a hardworking
young fellow, but too fond of li
ijuor. He haaavnunif, wife, and
with the family the father resides.
The father waa takn to the asylum
some months ac,o, but waa dis
charged ua cured, The father wa
in the habit of becoming drunk
and when intoxicated would light
the daughter in law, an) it ii Raid
that he struck her the lint of the
week, while the son waa in Port
land. t'uroner K. U. llrown went to
Progress, Monday, nnil held id
investigation.
It waa at tirt tlmuitht I tint there
might bavt) been Hume foul play,
and for thia reaaon ('owner llrown
waa called. Ho citib-d no jury,
however, aa there wis no evidence
that viol nee had b en done, ex
cepting that on the man's chest
there waa a discoloration thiit look
ed aa though he luiahl have been
struck by soma bhu.t instrument.;
On the other hand he could have
atiHtained the wound by tailing on
the bolster stake, prior to his fall
ing and gettinu in the popition
from which, under bin drunken
condition, Iih wan tumble torxtri
rate hi met If.
Saturday morning ti e futher of
Axel, who in very unruly, and a
terjifio drinker, went in starch of
the ron, as did the wifu. The
father found the team and brought
it home, leaving Axel laying in tho
ham. The wife met him aa he re
turned with the d mil, but lie would
tell her nothing tif Ami's where
a bou la. Many id the neighbor
tlown there think the old man, who
iters at drunk, might havnttsnip
ed Axel when he waa in the barn,
but thia in all mere lainjeulura.

WANTED- A FRUIT INSPECTOR
Sherwood, March 23
To the Editor: Have we a fruit
inspector in Washington County?
If so, it appears that be is not look
ing after the trees down in the
Middletoo and Sherwood sections.
Soma of the psople down here
have set out young trees, and are
trying to take care of them, but
many or the old orchards have not
been sprayed or trimmed for years,
and they are regular crusts of scale,
and will soon ruin the young or
chards. These old orchards should
be looked after. If the fruit in
spector would but make one trip
in here and notify the people what
to expect in case the law was not
followed, it would bs a great help
to ua all. 1 ours lntly,

FAMILY TROUBLE ALLEGED CAUSE
Lives About Six Milea Above Baok,
io Timber
Mrs. Etta Beard, wife of Wm.
Beard, swallowed carbolic acid,
which she bad borrowed from a
neighbor, on the pretext of getting
it for a disinfectant, Monday after
noon, and for some time her life
was despaired of. The woman has
been having some trouble in the
family circle and the rath act is
attributed to thia fact. Dr. Bur
gess, of Bank', says that he thinks
very little entered the stomach,
and that probably the acid con
tracted the throat and caused her
to emit it before it reached the vital
organ.
