The Corvallis Times says John McOalb, recently mur- uerea iy joim Aicuoweu, in uncoin county, was shot down from an ambush in a cold blooded manner. Charles Hyde, the iourteen-year-old eon of County Treasurer Hvde, of Lincoln county, and a nephew of 'McDowell, was one of the witnesses, and he has made a statement that throws an evil glare over the shoot ing. McCalb, about 7 o'clock in the evening rode up to the fence in front of McDowell's house. Young Hyde, to gether with a young son of Jolin Mc Dowell stood in the yard, and to the former McCalb called and asked if Mrs. MeOttlb and the children were in the house. Hyde answered to the effect that they were, and shortly after Mrs. McCalb came to the door, but not out side, and talked to her husband through her brother Charles McDowell. McCalb asked her to go home with him, but she declined to do so. McCalb then said that he would come after her and the children the following morning. It was at this moment that the first shot was tired. McDowell's ambush was a honey suckle bush that stands in the yard, and young Hyde asserts that he had no idea that McDowell was behind it until he saw the flash of the gun. He is also positive that McCalb did not know that McDowell was there until after the shot was tired. Hyde saw the first shot, and saw McCalb fall from his horse. Then ho ran around the house to go to the barn, when he heard another shot. On the road to the barn he heard another shot, and at the barn still another. He then got his hcrse and rode to the home of his brother, Frank Hyde. According to Charles Hyde's story there were no words at all between McDowell and Mc Calb. A LiriLE Hero. The Aumsville cor respondent of the Journal tells of a very interesting case : Aumsville proposes to take a front seat on the hero business. Last Sunday little Martin and Jimmie Mover, two" sturdy little fellows ageu 7 amf 2 years, went to take a walk, but contrary to mother's orders went to the mill race, when by a misstep Jimmie fell into the water, and went nut of sight as the water was considerable ovsr his head. Without a moment's hesitation Martin jumped in and caught Jimmie as he waa going down the second time. The water was deep and the bank steep but fortu nately Martin caught hold of a root and held on with one hand and to Jimmie with the other, keeping his head above water. The timely help of another boy saved the lives of both children. To use Martin's own language, "I just didn't care about my new shoes at all. I just umped in to get Jimmie, and 1 tell you t made bit arm ache to hold on and to hold Jimmie." What Lord Says. The railroad com mission business is cettine Tenr mixed. One dav it is said the old commissioners will hold over, another day that Govern or Lord will appoint a new board, and another dav that no one will be appoint ed. Here ia what Governor Lord says according to the Journal: "Attorney General Idleman has neither filed nor xpressed to me an opinion on the sub- ject, but I have called upon him lor an opinion. Nothing will lie done in the matter ot appointments until he has furnished his opinions as the basis for my action, and it is useless for appli cants to urge their claims at the present time. Jly own opinion will be lonned from an examination of his opinion and authorities presented upon the subject, and if then I am of the opinion that I have the authority to make the appoint ments I shall do so. Applicants are numerous and well recommended, and I pprehend the on!v dirncultv will be in making selections from so many excel lent men." School Repokt.

Will Beat the Seasom. G. W. Mar in, who conducts a carden adioinins this city, is intending to get ahead of the season this year if possible in the rais ing of certain vegetables. As is known the season here is so slow that tomatoes and melons and such things do not ripen until after the market has been supplied from localities where there is a warmer climate. Mr. Martin will endeavor to overcome the trouble of getting into the market alter some one else has supplied it and will start his melons under a glass and will give them a good start in that way. He will start his tomatoes in small boxes in a hot house, and trans plant them when the weather will per mit. e believe a little enterprise in this way will be found profitable. Reg' ister. A Tocgh Tike op it. Theatrical t roups are having a tough time of it. The Grants Pass Courier says: A company of fourteen stranded play-actors under tue name oi me iwmusis siruca tuc town last week and had quite a time zettincr out of here. They played to thin houses lor three nights, and the lour ladv memliers of the trouoe noddled tickets around town the last day in utter desperation. They finally got away by the north-bound freight rriday mxht. There was some dramatic talent in the crowd, but not enough to carry its load ot deadweight in the rather dolelul plays they had placed on the boards. A good many unpaid bills are lelt as memen toes.

Something of in terest to every cyclist ib the recently pat ented invention of Mr. Unruh, of Mc- Minnville, whereby the cranks on the pedals of a wheel may be adjusted by an automatic arrangement o a greater length. The great advantage of a long crank shaft in driving up a hill Is in stantly apparent to every wheelman. It ia claimed for Mr. Knrui's invention that it is going to start a revolution in ideas about how to ride a wheel uphill. Bv the simple device of a spring; and an elbow lock in the crank, a six-inch crank can, at the rider's will, be automatically adjusted to nine inches by merely put- timr the increased pressure on the ned- als. In going up a hill, for example, the . Bix-iucii craua. iktuiuiitb mm mciies lu leneth on the '"over and down stroke" of the pedal, and than, after passing the center, the spring is so arranged that without any difficulty or hindrance to the rider's feet, the crank again becomes six inches long. .
