THE HALSEY SHOOTING.
During yesterday af'.er&oon at tlaleey
Owen Bond was taken before the justice
there on the charge of assault with in
tent to kill Ira Stroud. He waived ex
amination and was held under $1,000 to
await the action of the grand jury. J.
R. Pearl arrested for assault with intent
to kill Owen Bond waived examination
and was held under $800 bonds. Silas
and Elmer Pearl were also arrested tor
assault with intent to kill Owen Bond
and were to be examined today. They
claim to have only tried to separate John
Pearl and Bond. On account of the con
fusion and sixe of the crowd present there
is a doubt on this point. A young man
who was an eye witness to the affair
gives the following particulars:
Tuesday evening John Pearl and Bond
bad a quarrel over the matter of Bond's
intimacy with Pearl's daughter, Mrs.
Aliingham, which was pretty heafd,
and Bond declares that Pearl stated
Uiat he would be a dead man before
morning. Yesterday forenoon Pearl met
Bond and asked hun.tofco into Jas
1 earl s stable and talk over the matter.
Bond refused to do so. savin the Pearls
wanted to get him in there to whip bin;
but Pearl promised that nothing ot the
kind would occur, so they went to the
stable, which they had hardly entered
when l earl attacked Bond. It is also
claimed Silas and Elmer joined in the
contest against Bond; but they claim
they were only trying to separate them
A rough ana tumble hgbt followed. The
marshal and a bin crowd were present.
The marshal would stop them for a mo
ment when they would go at it again.
This was kept up for five minutes. Had
the marshal arretted the men as he
should have- done, the trouble would
have stopped.
l earl, or the 1 earls, were getting the
best of Bond, when hedrew his reviver.
Most of the crowd had dispersed by this
time. Mr. fctroud who had been in the
stable about twenty minutes and during
the whole quarrel as a spectator, remain
ed about six feet from the men. The
young man who was with Mr. Stroud
wisely said, "lets get away," and did.
but air. Mroud remarked, ".o, I in go
ing to see it out." When Bond, who had
fallen to his knees, drew his revolver bis
hand was knocked aside by Pearl and
the revolver, a 41 calibre weapon, was
discharged, the butlet hitting Mr. Stroud.
ibis en Jed the contest and all atleatton
was paid to the wounded man.
Upon the arrival of Or. Maston. as
sisted hy Dra Smith and Starr, an ex
aminatiun was made The bullet entered
the abdomen three inches below and two
to the right of the ambelicos, perforating
the intestine in ten places, embedding
i-self in the muscles of the back. About
twelve inches of intestine was removed
and the intestine united with a Murphy
button. A good deal.of hemorrhage oc
curred and the spermatic cord was. cut
Though Mr. Stroud is resting easy and
appears cheerful the injuries are such.
taken with the great loss of blood, that
Dr. Maston doubts if he can recover.
His only hope, though, was in the oper

chance of recovery.

'Miss Foley was a girl much beloved trv

Pague's Crop Report.
The rain prevented the continuation of
spring plowing and seeding. The low
landa are flooded with rain water, and
the rolling land is too wet to plow. A
few days of warm, dry weather will put
the soil in first-class condition to be
worked. The fall-sown grain has an ex-
eellent appearance, and while the growth
nas not oeen rapid it has been heaitbv.
In Curry county early-sown fall grain Is
sprouting, and in thiscoupty clover is

The correspondents have a more hope
ful view for the fruit crop. Man who
one week ago reported fruit badly in

not to greai as was at first supposed."
The frosts did some damage to peaches

crowd of farmers were sending milk

to the next room into a big vat, where it
will remain until tomorrow morning.
In the mean time the bodv of the milk

out of a lower tube into another vat and
thence through another pipe right back

NOT POISON AT ALL.
An Imitation to Frighten A New
Phaie Presented.
The charge against Oral Poindexter,
the 12-year-old boy accused of trying to
poison members of the Widow Smith's
family near Coburg, was dismissed this
morning by Justice Wheeler.
There was no evidence to convict the
boy, who proved a complete alibi at tbe
time the last supposed attempts of pois
oning were committed. About eight
witnesses were examined on each side
snd there was some conflicting testimony.
One of the little girls, a step granddaugh-
oi Mrs. brntiti, testifies that ehe saw tbe
boy. Oral Poindexter. enter the premises
at the time some of the supposed poison
and the l.it threatening notes were lett
at tne bouse, bat ber testimony wm not
accepted.
There was no evidence) introduced to
show that there had really been any
poisoo placed about tbe bouse, except
ing at one time when some vitrol was
found in the pomp. Tbe oilier stuff
scattered about the premises, which Mrs
Smi'h thought waa poison, was only an
imiUlion substance placed therm with an
evident intention of frightening her. In
fact the examination has tended to show
that thers was no intention to kill any
member of Uie Smith family, but instead
an effort was being made to frighten
Mrs. Smith so that she would leave the
ranch. This explains very clearly why
tbe family persecutor did not succeed in
poisoning any members of the family, as
wis at hrst aupposed be waa trying to do.
As for tbe little girl being struck on
the bead. ths part of the affair is be
lieved to be a hoax and the girl is believ
ed to have been prompted to tell this and
otli-r stones by Uie perron who u really
at the bottom of the whole affair.
Poller dr. Condon who prosecuted the
case joined with Dorris tt Stevens, who
had charge of the defense, in tbe effort
to ferret tbe matter oat and find oat who
the guilty party is. and tbey are confi
dent they now know to waotn to attach
the blame lor the whole anair namely
member of the persecuted family.
However it ia believed that the trouble
has come to a terminus and if such shall
prove to be the case the suspected party
will doulrie be allowed to go without
being prosecuted.
J be result of the examination has
shown that tbe boy. Oral Poindexter, a
bright young lad, had nothing whatever
to do with the enme. Eugene Guard.
