ThsClafa Nkvada. The wreck of
the Clara Nevada has been investigated
recently . It is believed that there was
4300,000 in the safe but this cannot be
found and probably alioped through tbe
broken bottom to tbe bottom cf tbe sea.
Following is tbe theory as to the man
ner ia which tbe wreck occurred :
The steamer caught fire, and dnri- g
the frantic fight to keep tbe flames from
the place where was stored powder and
dynamite the officers lost their bearings
and, incidentally, control of the ship.
The fierce, blinding storm in a few min
utes drove tbe vessel on Eldrid rock,
broad-side on, and the Clara Nevada was
split wide open. From tbe position of
tbe wreck it is plain that the Nevada
was split open, and it ia believed that
the heavy safe, with its treasure, drop
ped through the ship into deeper water,
where it will in ail probability never be
recovered.
Tbe theory that the ship caught fire is
borne out b tne fact that along the deck
of the wreck is strewn the ship's fire
hose, attached to tbe hydrants and con
nected with pumps.
While tbe wreck rs have not recover
ed the treasnre, ther bare secured a
good deal of machinery, tbe anchor
chains, tbe donkey engine, brass fittings,
etc-, and even witbont tbe treasnre they
will be amply repaid for their trouble.

Savage's arrest and Night watch Bailess
arrested him but not until be had re

The farmers are all very busy hauling
off their grain to the warehouse and
some have not finished their earing
threshing yet ; about another aeek the
grain will all be harvested and pat into
the sack if the weather stays good. Tbe
weather bas been exceedingly nice for
saving tLe crops, most geuerally it rains
and catches the spriog grain threshed.
The crops did not near come to the aver
age of last year. One man had a small
field of Kinney wheat that averaged 25
bushels per acre. That is tbe highest
yield we have heard of so far.

purposes, the grain crop is oat of the

A 10,000 Suit.
From the Rosebarg Review:
J. Frank Watson .through his attorney.
A. M. Crawford, has sued ex-Sheriff B.
O. Agee lor $10,000 damages. It seems
that Watson secured on the Sth ot last
June a decree and judgment (by fore
closure of mechanics' nd laborers' lien)
against the Koonday Mining Co. cf Bo
Iiemia, lor isjj- oa, oesiues accrueu in
terest, attorney's lees and costs of the
action. An execution was issued and
date of sale of the mining property, ma
chinery, etc., set for Saturday, August
13, 1VJS. iielore the appointed time ar
rived, however, the Noonday Company,
through their attorney, F. W.Benson.
Bled a stay bond with Mr. Agee. and
took an appeal to the supreme court, the
sheriff (Mi. Agee) relying upon the say
bond and refusing to sell the property
upon tho execution aa advertised. As a
mine is regarded as personal property
and la not subject to redemption like real
estate, the sheriff's disregard of a stay
bond would probably have subjected him
to a damage suit Irom the detendants.m
stead of the plaintiff who is now suing
him because he did not sell the property
upon their execution.
