are pain
ed to have to give the particulars of
a serious accident which happened
to Hardin W. Estes, one of our coun
ty commissioners, and one of our
best farmers, which occasioned the
loss of one of his eyes. On last Fri
day he was dressing a sheep which
he had killed for mutton, when the
knife slipped and the point entered
his left cheek penetrating up into
the ball of the eye, and destroying
it. Dr. J. M. Boyd was called in,
but could do nothing in the matter
but dress the wound, which he did,
and at last accounts Mr. Estes was
doing well and will suffer no difigu
ration besides the loss of his left
eye, which is a serious loss to our
friend. He has the sympathies of
all his neighbors and acquaintances.
L o s t ! b u t F o u n d ! —On last Wed
nesday two of our lady friends start
ed on horseback for a short ride in
the country, on business for the Fes
tival which took place on last Thurs
day evening. They made two or
three calls, and a heavy rain shower
came upon them, and in the midst of
it they come to a house—a man was
standing in the door—but our ladies
were so wet that he did not ask them
in—it may be from fear of wetting
his floor—but told them they could
find shelter some miles further on
where there was a house with aporch
that they could get under and hold
their horses. Our ladies traveled on
and next come to a slough, and after
passing around it they did not know
where they were—were lost. When
they left town they expected to re
turn in two or three hours, but had
not returned and the parties who
owned the horses become uneasy.—
They started after the parties—in
fact, went to look for their horses—
but, before they returned, the hors
es had brought Miss C— and Mrs.
G — home safe, but mighty tired—
between eight and nine o’clock at
night. They say they will not go
into the country again by themsel
ves.
C hicken T hieves .—On last Friday
or Saturday night week some one
with malice and forethought, and a
hankering after chicken, entered our
chicken house and stole the last
chicken that we had that was fit to
eat. We did not mention the fact
because we thought it might be that
the thief had made a mistake, and
when he found out he had been into
an editor’s lien house that he would
place our chickens—four in number
—back where he found them, perch
ed upon their roost. We have wait
ed, but no chickens curne back. We
intend to get some more chickens
this week, und we intend to catch
the first infernal chicken thief that
enters our henery, even if we have
to do it with two charges of No 4
shot out of a double barreled Parker
shotgun, and we will let him pull
the triguers. It may have been a
Chinaman that stole our chickens,
but wado not believe it was. If it
was awhite man he is no better than
a Chinese chicken thief.

The following is the assessed value
of agricultural lands per acre, for
1873, in the different counties as
found by the State Board: Baker,
85,79; Curry, 84,54; Columbia. 83,13;
Clatsop, 83,94; Douglas, 85,48; Jack-
son, 82,27; Josephine, 84.83; Lane,

Umatilla, 86,48; Union, 84,62; Wash
ington, 85,21; Yamhill, 85.43.
It will be seen from the above that
Land in Umatilla county rates third

rates first and Marion second. In
Jackson county the land is at the
lowest rates.
P a t e n t O u t s i d e s . —The following

The paper is filled altogether with
articles and news pertaining to Ore

developed, discoveries will be made
in both placer and quartz, money
will be more plenty, and as time
rolls on, this section of Eastern Ore
gon as an agricultural, grazing aud
mining country will rank second to
none on the Coast. Day is already
breaking, and the dawn of a new era
is shadowing forth the full bright
ness that will burst forth in dazzling
brilliancy and prosperity on this
section of country aud its people.—
And where, not many years ago, the

All the arrangements for the exe*
cution had been admirably made by
Post Adjutant Kingsbury, and pre
cisely at 9 A . M. the troops were
formed on the parade ground, the
artillery and cavalry being mounted,
when they took up their line of march
to the guard house, where a wagon
drawn by four horses, aud contain
ing the prisoners, took its position
in the column. Arriving at the gal
lows, the military took up its posi
tion on three sides of the gallows,
leaving an open space, disposed of as
follows; Lieut. G. W. Kingsbury,
Post Adjutant, immediately in front
of the scaffold; about twenty feet
distant on his left the Interpreter.—
Directly iu the rear of the .Adjutant,
about twenty paces distant, was the
Commanding Officer, Gen. Frank
Wheaton, and one pace on his left,
Lient. Adams, A. A. G., of the Dis
trict of the Lakes, the three Medical
officers of the Post and the Post Chap
lain. On the right and rear of the
Commanding Officer, were several
officers casually at the Post, and a
number of citizens. The reporters
occupied a desk to the extreme left
of the Medical staff. Six mounted
patrols passed up and down the rear
of the line on each side to keep the
ever curious in position of the rais
ed platform. In the rear of the drop
were slationed the three enlisted men
immediately oharged with the execu
tion of the Modoc prisoners, under
the direction of the Officer of the
Day, who stood directly in the cen
ter of the platform.
Captain Jack stood on the extreme
right end of the scaffold, with Scon-
chin next to him, while Boston Char
ley occupied the extreme left with
Black Jim next to him. This left
two places in the center vacant—
Barncho and Sloluck having been
ordered returned to the stockade a
short time before the execution, an
order haying been received by the
Commanding Officer from the P res
ident comm uting their sentence to
imprisonment for life, and designat
ing Alcatraz, Cal., as the place of
their future confinement. Boston
Charley and Black Jim were led on
the scaffold first, andSconehin next.
They took their places' with appar
ent, indifference, evidently resolving
to die as brave as they had lived.—
Jack went easily up the stairway,but
looked wicked and miserable. Their
manacles had been removed, but
their arms were securely pinioned.
At 9:45 the interpreters, Capt. O
C. Applegate and D. Hill, explained
to the culprits the nature of the or
der to be read to them by the Adju
tant, and at 10 A. M. that officer
read the, order promulgating the sen
tence of tho Commission and the
President's order therein, with the
orders of the Secretary of War and
Department Commander in the prem
ises. The two reprieved prisoners,
Barncho and Slolux, were standing
on the ground in front of the scaffold,
and under guard- The reading oc-
enpied ten minutes. The order of
commutation evidently pleased Slo
lux aud Rarnchcx when explained to
them, and they stepped lightly on
their return to the stockade. The
Chaplain then offered a fervid and
earnest prayer, when at 10:15 the fa
tal nooses were placed around the
necks of the victims. It ivas found
necessary in this part of the ceremo
ny to cut off a little of Jack’s long
hair, it being iu the way of the rope.
Capt. Hays then bade farewell to the
prisoners and the black caps were
drawn over the heads of all the cul
prits. At 10:15 they stood on the
drop, when the rope was cut at a sig
nal made by Capt. Hayes’ handker
chief. The bodies swung round and
round several times, Jack and Jimap-
parently dying easily, while Boston
and Scncliin underwent terrible con
vulsions. The two former seemed
to die almost instantly, while the
latter drew up their legs aud let them
fall repeatedly. At 10:28 their pulses
were felt by Capt. Hayes, and as I
write this they were swinging lifeless
iu mid air. As the drop fell with a
terrible, deadly thug, four poor and
wretched human beings fell into eter
nity, and a half smothered cry of
horror went up from the crowd of
over 500 Klamath Indians who were
witnesses of the scene. Wails of
deep aud bitter anguish issued from
the direction of the stockade, from
which the wives and children of the
poor fellows had a fair view of the
shocking scene. The coffins, six in
number, had been placed directly iu
front of the gallows—two or three
destined to be unoccupied, as the
order commuting sentence of the
two returned to the stockade had on
ly been received at 10 o’clock last
evening—and provisions bad also
been made for their burial.
Application was made this morn
ing by the Sheriff of Jackson connty
for the custody of the Indians indict
ed bv the Grand Jury of that coun
ty, but the application was refused
by Gen. Wheaton.
The dead Indians were buried just
west of the stockade. An examina
tion showed that only the necks of
Jack and Black Jim were broken.
Hooka Jim and the remainder of the
Modoc tribe are to go to Wyoming
within ten days, in charge of gov
ernment troops. Sheriff McKenzy’s
demand for Hooka Jim and baud was
refused, as also the writ of haceas
corpus of Judge Prim.
