NEEDS INVESTIGATION.
The reckless disregard of human life, in
large cities, is becoming alarming, and seems
to be spreading, like an epidemic, through
out this coast. You can scarcely, pick up a
newspaper that does not contain an aecount
of some blood-thirsty tragedy. The list of
horrid murders committed in this State,
during the past year, is enough to startle
every reader and arouse public indignation.
The heart sickens while reading the various
recitals of foul deeds. And now follows
another, which was recently enacted in
Portland, but which falls, with crushing
effect upon hearts in this county and in Linn.
Last Friday, Mr. J. S. Gray, of this city,
was summoned to attend the funeral of his
acd father, whose death occurred under
very painful and suspicious circumstances
in the city of Portland, last week.
The deceased, John Gray, a respected
fanner of Linn county, aged about 77 years,
had been visiting a son in Eastern Oregon,
and was returning to his home in Linn.
Arriving at Portland, on The Dalles boat on
Friday night, he stopped, we belive, at the
Oregon Hotel. Next morning he was found,
by the police, on the street in front of the
hotel, in an insensible condition, snpposed
to be under the influence of liquor, and was
conveyed to jail. He remained in an un
conscious state until Monday, when he re
vived, and sent for Frank Paxton, a rela
tive, who had him immediately conveyed
to the St. Vincent Hospital, where, despite
medical ctre and attention, he died on the
Wednesday following. He knew nothing
of how he came upon the street, but says
he was robbed of $15 all the money he had
upon his person. He was a man of the
strictest morals anil integrity, and never
touched strong drink, which clearly shows
that he had been drugged, as well as robbed.
We learn that the matter is being worked
up by detectives, and it is to be sincerely
hoped the guilt will be traced to its proper
source, and the perpetrators of the foul
deed visited with the severest penalty of
the law.
The remains were brought up to Albany
last Friday, and hurried on Saturday, fol
lowed by a very large concourse of sorrow
ing friends. v
BLUE RIBBON CLUB.
The meeting, at the Presbyterian church,
last Saturday, was quite interesting, but
not so largely attended as should have been
on a pleasant evening. The music, however,
was a complete failure. The committee on
music should look after this matter. The
address by Rev. W. T. Chapman, was able,
interesting and well received. His experi
ments, showing the effect of alcohol upon
the brain, will never be forgotten by the
juvenile portion of the audience. The speak
er closed by urging the necessity of educat
ing the public mind on the subject of tem
perance. The audience was then favored with a
well written essay, "A plea for temper
ance," by Miss Clem. Tuller. Mr. C. L.
Bennett was elected secretary, to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the resignation of
Rev. E. fiodfrey. The President announced
that he was in error as to the time for elec
tion of officers of the Club, which will not
occur until the first meeting in February.
Adjourned to meet next Saturday evening at
College chapel.
Narrow Escape. The Salem Statesman
of the 18th inst., pivus an account of a nar
row escape from a mad bull, recently made
by Messrs. Koehler, vice president of the
O. C. R. R., J. .Brandt, jr., Supt., and Mr.
J. O. Johnson, superintendent of railroad
bridges. A few days ago the party were
coming up the west side track, in front of
the train, when they came to a hiili bridge,
and concluded to cross the ravine below.
While down in the ravine, the party was
attacked by a mad bull ; at first Messrs.
Koehler and Brandt were chased, when the
animal turned from them, and- pursued Mr.
Johnson. Mr. J. finding that the infuriated
animal was gaining upon him, turned, and
with an ax, which he fortunately happened
to be carrying, dealt the bull a blow on the
head, which laid him dead at his feet. It
was, indeed, a close call, and a " lucky hit."
Mails Delayed. We learn from Mr.
John Wells, that the road to Alsea valley
is completely blocked with fallen timber, so
that the mail carrier is compelled to leave
his horse at his (Wells) place, and carry the
mail through on foot. This is great misfor
tune and inconvenience, as he cannot make
the trip, under this arrangement oftcner
than once a week. It will be almost an im
possibility for the people over thare to open
this road without help, ' which should be
liberally given from the county treasury.
The same is true, to a great degree, of the
road to Yaquina. Both roads should receive
liberal aid.
Firemen's Ball. Young America En
gine Company's Hosemen propose giving a
grand ball on Monday evening, Feb. 23d, at
Hamilton's Opera House. As the Westside
railroad is completed between this city and
Independence, a large delegation from the
Independence fire department is expected
The "boys" are making preparations for a
good time.
Steamship Columbia. The Portland Bee
says : ' ' The steamship Columbia, now build
ing at Philadelphia, is expected to sail from
that city direct to Portland on the 1st of
April, loaded with material for the O. R. &
N. Co. She is said to be of beautiful model,
staunch and will attain a high rate of speed. "
Mr. Geo. W. Sill gave us a call yesterday.
The Duncan is expected daily at New
port. Please renew your subscription to the
Gazette. '
Hotels crowded, and the streets filled with
railroad hands.

Halsey enjoys a first-class sensation, occa
sioned by the arrest of a person represent
ing himself as Dr. J. W. .Snyder, on charge
of incest. At last accounts the Doctor was
heading for Benton. The woman he. repre
sented to be his sister, is still in Halsey.
N. N. Osburn, of Wilmington, 111., is
stepping at the Occidental. Mr. O. came
to Orgon in 1843, and returned to the States
in 1850. Rendered valuable assistance to
the immigrants of 1847. He will return to
Illinois in a short time, but expects to come
to" Oregon again in the spring.
Last Friday Messrs. N. P. Briggs and
Wayman St. Clair invited ye editor of the
Gazette, and Mr. Milt. Connor, of Kings
V alley, to a take ride m their hack to the
"front." We gladly accepted, and at that
time found the track-layers of the Westside
road in Mr. Hainan Lewis' field, some two
miles below the city. Last Tuesday after
noon the first construction train reached our
city limits. Our citizens flocked in great
crowds to welcome the iron horse.
Grandma Wells, while standing in her
laughter's door, and seeing the train bearing
Messrs. Koehler and Brandt pass, remarked
that it was the first time the cars had ever
p issed her. Up to that time, for nearly 70
years, she has kept ahead of the railroad.
It was the first time she ever saw a train of
i's. The same is true of Uncle Jack
Grimsloy. Grandma Wells makes her home
with her son, at philomath, and we firmly
believe that if she lives until next fall that
she can ride between Corvallis and Philo
math on the Yaquina railroad.
That I have taken away this old man's
daughter it is most true true I have mar
ried her and I have no reason to regret it
for since that happy day we have always
kept a supply of Emil Frese's celebrated
Hamburg Tea in the house and consequent
ly wife and I, and all the dear little ones,
are in good health all the time.
We would call the attention of our read
ers to the advertisement of the "King of
the Blood," a remedy for disorders resulting
from impurity of the blood, said to be, by
those who have witnessed its remarkable
effects, unequalled for the purposes men
tioned. Ihe reputation borne by its pro
prietors, D. Hansom, Son & Co., of Buffalo,
f. Y., should be ample guaranty ot their
claims for this article, but it will be observed
that they not only warrant the genuineness
of the certificates of cures by an offered re
ward, but also, in proper cases, offer to dis
close its ingredients, thus demonstrating
their own good faith in the safety and ex
cellence of its composition offers said never
before to have been made by the proprietors
of any other Family Medicine in the world.
MOLLIE AND I.
BX H. D. MOOS CORVALLIS.
I am courting Mollie Brown,
The fairest lady in the town ;
On her face there's ne'er a frown ;
How could there be with soul so fijee !
Oft when the sun had sank below,
And the stars were all aglow,
Have I wandered singing low,
With lovers glee, my love to see.
Oft I've met her at the gate,
Where she loves to watch and wait,
Asa bird looks for its mate,
So sweetly shy ; with half shut eye,
I will not keep her waiting long.
For you know It would be wrong
I'll whisper words more sweet than song
Bye and bye the time is nigh.
She fovea me with a love divine,
And puts her little hand in mine.
And savs so sweetly, " I am thine,
What should I do, with faith so true?
Why then I clasp her in my arms.
And kiss away loves shy alarms,
And swear allegiance to her charms,
Life's journey through and so would you.
You say such true love cannot last,
That it will die with sorrow's blast.
Stop, my friend, don't judge so fast,
You cannot know ; dont grieve me so,
I've told her that I loved her well,
More than mortal tongue could tell.
Together we've agreed to dwell.
While here below, through woil or woe.
The Worst Fears Realized. Last week
we mentioned the probability that a young
man, Ami Bogue, whose parents reside
across the river in Linn county, had per
ished by cold, east of the mountains. La
ter intelligence confirmed the sad rumor.
His body was found, stiff in death. Doubt
less, overcome by the cold he had sunk
down, and perished. It is a great consola
tion, however, to his aged, grief -stricken
parents and mourning relatives to know
that he was prepared for the better life.
Previous to his departure he had professed
religion and joined the M. E. Church. Just
before leaving he requested Mr. W. J. Mil
hollen to allow his name to remain on the
class-book until he should hear from him,
remarking that he "thought he could live
religious up there as well as at home."
In Awful Peril. Ever since the late
terrible storm the suspense relative to the
fate of the party at work upon Tillamook
has been intense. Stores and provisions
known to have been washed from the rock,
and found along the beach, added to the
terrible suspense. The Corwin has at lost
reached the rock, and found the party all
alive. A letter from Mr. Ballantiue, the
contractor, and published in the Portland
papers, gives some idea of their peril. The
place where they were cramped, although
90 feet above the sea, was washed by the
angry waves, and some 600 worth of sup
plies lost. The men were saved by keeping
within their quarters, which were fearfully
pounded by the angry breakers. Mr. Bal
lantiue did not sleep for three nights. Their
escape seems almost miraculous.
For California. In consequence of
continued ill health, and thinking a change
of scenery, climate, etc. , and a brief respite
from labor and care might be beneficial, we
have conclnded to take a trip, to California,
accompanied by Mrs. C. We have been
greatly benefitted by the treatment of Dr.
F- A. Johnston, for a few weeks past, but
think rest and travel will do us more good
than medicine. We propose to make the
trial,, at any rate. We expect to leave Port
land on the Oregon to-morrow. Mr. W. P.
Keady will attend to the office business, and
Messrs. F. M. Johnson and James A. Yantis
will look after the editorial department dur
ing our absence. We leave the Gazette in
competent hands, and for a few weeks bid
our readers good-bye.
New Lodge. Laurel Lodge, I. O. G.T.,
was organized at Monroe, on the 17th inst.,
by J. E. Houston, State Deputy, with 23
charter members. F. Kittredge, W. C. T.
Mollie Bowen, W. V. T. ; Phineas Gilbert,
L. D. Monroe is looking up in temperance
matters. There is also a Blue Ribbon Club,
of one hundred members, with Mr. Wm.
Bowen, as President.
Brutally Murdered. An aged Ger
man, named Henry Stevens, an inoffensive
old miner, was beaten to death, in a drunk
en row, by a man named John Darby, at
Canyon City, recently. A correspondent
says the particulars of the crime are too
disgusting to bear reduction to writing.
The old man, it seems, was addicted to
strong drink, and wheu on a spree, the
Portland Bee says, " his cabin was the re
sots of dead Tfeats and the lowest order of
sorts, and in a dfunken orgie he was inhu
manly dealt with and beat to death." The
populace were greatly excited, and talked
of lynch law. It is high time that some
decisive steps were taken to prevent the
cold-blcoded murder which now seems so
rife throughout the laud.
o
Confessed His Crime. Last week we
mentioned the brutal murder of an aged
German, Jacob Swanger, in Washington
ceunty. Harry Wintzingerode, of Portland,
has made confession of the crime, which, in
horrid details, is even more atrocious, if
could be, than the Hagar murder. He first
shot the old man, and then beat his head al
most to a jelly with an ax, after which he
dragged the body into the cabin aed locked
the door after him. He says he killed the
old man because he would not loan him
money. A little girl of the family in which
he was stopping saw him clandestinely
counting money, which led to his detection.
Preferred Suicide. Wong Fook, the
Chinaman sentenced to be hung in Portland,
last Tuesday, took Time by the forelock,
and shuffled off the mortal coil in his cell
by hanging himself with a silken scarf or
girdle. He donned a clean, white suit pre
pared for the execution and then climbed up
the iron door, fastened his girdle to the ceil
ing, slipped his head into a noose, and quiet
ly "passed in his checks." One neck-tie
party spoiled.
Schedule. The Otegonian of the 20th
inst. , gives the following as the schedule on
the Oregon Central railroad. ( Westside) to
go into effect on the 25th inst : The mail
train will leave Gorvaltis at 4 a. m., arnve
in Portland at 1 1 :30 A. M. Returning, will
leave Portland at 2 p. m., and arrive in Cor
vallis at 9:35 P. M. Freight trains will pass
over the road alternate days, leaving Port
land or Corvallis in the morning.'
Returned. Messrs. William and George
Bogue, of Linn county, upon receiving the
sad news of the loss of their brother Ami,
immediately started for Eastern Oregon.
They found the dead body of their brother,
after it had lain some four weeks, and gave
it decent burial. William returned last
Tuesday. George remained to settle up the
business.
Heavy Loss. We learn from Mrs. J. G.
Grubbs, of this city, some of the particu
lars of the heavy loss sustained bv her un
cle, Mr. J. L. Wakefield, of Polk county,
by the recent storm. Mr. W. resides about
midway between the Helmic bridge and
Monmouth. His large barn was blown
down, and one valuable horse killed, and
others severely injured. His loss, in grain,
agricultural implements, tot, was very
heavy.
Sailing Days. In consequence of delays
occasioned by the late unprecedented storm
along this coast, the steamers of O. S. S.
Co., missed one tri p. The sailing days for
this month and first trip in February, will
be as follows : Steamer Oregon, Saturday
Jan. 24 ; State of California, Thursday,
Jan. 29 ; Geo. W. Elder, Tuesday, Feb. 3.
The above announcement is by private note
from Geo. W. Weidler, agent of the Oregon
Steamship Co., Portland.

You might a well back a mule up
against a bee-hive and tell him not to
kick as to tell a woman about a wed
ding and expect silence.
Thirty persons in a small town in
Michigan were recently poisoned by
eating sausages. This comes from
leaving brass collars on dogs.
Health, Strength and vigor,
Will surely follow to any one using the
celebrated Oregon Kidney Tea. For sale
by all druggists. Don't be persuaded to use
any other preparation, as one trial of this
will convince you of its benefitting qualities.
Ihe Dcath-rale of
Our country is getting to be fearfully alarm
ing, the average of life being lessened every
year, without any reasonable cause, death
resulting generally from the most insignifi
cant origin. At this season of the year es
pecially, a cold is such a common thing that
in the hurry of every day life we are apt to
overlook the dangers attending it and often
find too late, that a Fever or Lung trouble
has already set in. Thousands lose their
lives in this way every winter, while had
Boicliee' iGerwan Syrup been taken, a cure
would have resulted, and a large bill from a
Doctor been avoided. For all diseases of
the Throat and Lungs, Boschee's German
Syrup has proven itself to be the greatest
discovery of its kind in medicine. Every
