DIED.
THOMPSON On Saturday, Dec. 30, 1882.
at East Portland, S. H. Thompson died
quite suddenly.
He was for many yeara engaged in the
general merchandise business at this place
and was an energetic and active man. Un
fortunately however a niece and daughter of
his deceased brother died a few years ago
from the effects of diptheria at which time
the subject of this sketch took her loss so
hard as to deprive him of his reason. Since
that time his mind has besa so badly effect
ed that it was necessary to confine hrra in
the assylura at East Portland. After his
death his remains were brought home to his
family in this place, and. on Tuesday las';
they were deported in the Union cemetry
about five miles west of town.
The Mew Years Ball.
Not for many a year has the lovers of the
ball room enjoyed themselves better than
on New-years night at the hop given under
the auspices of the Knights of Pithias, in
Hamilton hall. A new canvas, the -entire
size of the room, had been procured and
spread during the previous week which
added much- to the enjoyment of the gkldy
gliders. The attendance was large and
several parties from otr neighboring town
were in attendance whom we hope feel re
paid for their visit. An excellent supper
was Served at both the Occidental hotel and
Mrs. Hemphill's, at near midnight, after
which they again repaired to the hall and
mingled in mirth and music until the
hallelujahs of the roosters reminded them
that the "dawning of the morning" was
upon them. All m all the affair was a de
cided success and was not only creditable
to the managers but added handsomely to
the lodge's exchequer.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY.
Vigilantes Turned Loose Again One Man
Fired Upon wnlle Flaying a social
dame of Card?
Two" Others Hang to a Juniper, and After
ward i Shot Three Violent Deaths In
a Single Night!
We received a letter from our corres
pondent at Prineville Thursday night of
last week about the time of going to press
and too late to get the news in
our last issue. It cimply announced the
killing of A. C. Swart at that place on the
22nd of last month by a shot aimed at him
through the window of a ealoon, and the
hanging on the same night about two miles
from town of Luster and Huston by un
known men. The following is the account
given by an extra of the Prineville -Yen- on
the subject:
"On yesterday morning tne citizens Jof
Prineville wore thrown into a fever of ex
citement upon hearing of the shooting of
AI Swarts, a resident of Ochoco, and who
had been stopping in town for the past week.
A party of six were playing a social game
of cards at the Exchange saloon on Friday
night, when suddenly a loud report of a
shot gun was beard, and the glass from the
window near the card table was shattered,
and blown iu every direction. Mr. Swarts,
who sat next to the window said that, ' 'that
s-n of a b-h made a good shot," and then it
was discovered that he (Swarts) was shot
in the back and side of the neck, ten or
twelve shot taking effect. The wounded
man was taken to the Occidental hotel, and
died at about 10 o'clock, on yesterday morn
ing. To the law-abiding citizens this foul
murder was shocking enough, but feeling
was increased when parties tame in from the
country, and told of the discovery of two
men hanging by their necks to a juniper.
This last tragedy took place about three
miles east of town, near the Ochoco. Upon
hearing this the proper officers went to the
place, and an inquest was held, the Verdict
of the jury beiog that the bodies were those
of Syd Houston and Chas. Lu3ter, and that
they evidently came to their deaths by be
ing hung by the neck, and from gunshot
wounds in the head, all inflicted by un
known parties. The verdict of the jury at
the inquest upon the body ot Al Swarts was
that said Swarts came to his death by shot
gun wounds in the neck and head inflicted
by parties unknown.
Al Swarts has resided several years in the
valley of the Ochoco, being engaged in the
stock business.
Syd Houston has also resided in this sec
tion, following the business of horse raisin?.
Chas. Luster was a late arrival here, of
no particular occupation, but claimed to be a
practical jockey. Deceased came to this
place from California a short time ago. He
has no relatives here. .
Under the above caption we have no
comments to make now. The generally
accepted reason for such work is repeated
attempts, many of which have been success
ful, at spiriting horses out of this section."
Shooting Match.
A shooting match 'took place just south
of and adjoining town on New Years day.
Turkeys were put up for from one dollar
and fifty cents to two dollars each and the
contributors decided upon the manner in
which they would shoot for the game.
Chickens were tied three together and put
up for a dollar a bunch. There were a num
ber of persons present who were excellent
shots. A turkey was shot at with a revolver
about'seventy-five yards by Ruben Kiger
the shot taking effect iu the birds leg. Mr.
C. H. Whitney made another pistol shot at
the same bird the same distance striking
center in the body. Mr. Draper, Geo.
Wagoer, McLagan, and Frank Wright,
Stroud Long et al appeared to be among the
best rifle shots. All of them getting away
with a turkey.
Destta.
We received the sad intelligence last
Thursday too late after going to press an
nouncing that Thompson D. Hinton Sen.
living near Monroe died of erysipelas. He
sa an early pioneer of Oregon and was long
and favorably known in the history of this
state. He leaves a widow and large family
of children and large concourse of relatives
and friends who iriocrn his loss. His re-
maius were deposited in the burying ground
near Monroe on Christmas day. He must
have been about sixty years of age. He waa
a very young man when he first came to
Oregon. Peace to his ashes.
Eod7 Found;
Arthur Brassfield who recently came out
from Newport brought the news that the
body of Simpson, one of the men who was
drowned in the Yaquina bay recently, was
found on of last week near
Cipe Foulweather. The head was entirely
severed from the body and gone. All of
the clothing was also gone except his boots
and socks. By the boots and socks they
were enabled to identify the body.

Dramatic Entertainment.'
Owing to the extended report of the late
teachers' institute of this- county our apace
was too limited to admit of giving in ac
count of the entertainment at the .City Hall
held on Wednesday evening of last week.
The spacious hall was well filled and tne
entertainment Was a success. The music
by various parties, "Fireman" recited by Sol
Stock, "Deathbed Scene," by Miss Bertha
Neugass, Duette by Mrs. B. L. Arnold and
Miss Jielia White, "Daughter Arise," by
Wm. Emery and "Bernado Del Carpio,"
recited by Miss Lizzie Hamilton, were all
performed quite well. To cap the whole
affair the next was a drama entitled "Bread
Upon the Waters," performed by eight
characters and was performed in the very
best manner entirely by Corvallis tallent.
Dr. Harlem an elderly gentleman a teach
er and proprietor of a private school who
stood well in life and whose mind was ser
iously affected by false accusations of for
gery having Been made against his wayward
son, was well represented by Mr. N. .L.
Raber. Harry Harlem the Doctor's son,
who was falsely aocused by his schoolmate
and false friend and pupil of his father, was
well performed by David Osburo. Fred
Hastings who falsely accused young Harlem
and whose habits of dissipation had partially
led the Dr's. son est ray was well repre
sented by W. H. Lesh. Bob Winders,
schoolmate of young Harlem and Hastings
and who was a fast friend of young Harry,
sticking by him under all circumstances,
was acted in the best manner by Leo Stock
Jonathan Wild Butts the town constable
who represented the magesty of the law and
who endeavored to make himself particu
larly obnoxious to all evil doers and es
pecially those who came under his observa
tion waa well done by Frank Irvine. Lucy
Harlem the Dr.'s daughter and sister to
Harry whose charms had Captivated Fred
Hastings and Bob Winders was handsomely
performed by Miss Bertha Neugass. Mre.
Loring house keeper for Dr. Harlem whose
househjld all looked upon as a firm friend
was well done by Miss Ida Burnett. Dilly
who while an infant was picked from the
streets and brought home by Harry and
who afterwards proved to be the grand
daughter of constable Butts and a lover of
Harry, was well represented by Miss Eda
Jacobs. These parts were certainly all
performed far better than any of the the
atrical professionals who so often come here
from abroad and the characters were per
formed entirely by home tallent which
should be encouraged more than it has here
tofore been.
A Sorss Back Ride to the Country A Eaily
Worn Saddle.
It was on a still cold morning, the day
after New Years, in the Webfoot land, in
the small town of Corvallis, that a dashing
youth of at least forty summers, who had
seen much of the why's and wherefore's of
this world. On that eventful morning he
concluded to take a horse back ride into the
country for his blooming health and pleas
ure. He' had once been editor of the Ben
ton Democrat and also the Siver Side, and
while thus engaged he had not only read
but had no doubt wrote long epistles on the
suoject of horse back exercise and riding in
general, as well for health as pleasure.
When he had fully made up his mind to
start, in Order that it might be the means of
recuperating his emaciated form, he straight
way applied to Liveryman Eglin for a sad
dle horse which Was gentle, kind and easy.
He was soon supplied with an animal and
started south. He had rode much less than
half a day when an uneasiness . was experi
enced which Was much more unpleasant
than healthful. It however troubled the
subject of this sketch but little. It hiirt
the place very much which was occupied by
the seat of the saddle. And the further he
went the more it seemed to him as if that
sad. ile would surely wear entirely out which
he feared might cause him to have to pur
chase another with which to replace the old
one. The unpleasant condition of the sad
dle and as the horse was not a pacer, under
any condition of circumstances not even for
accommodations, our friend concluded to re
trace his stcpe and he therefore returned to
town the same day mneh improved in ex
perience but not in body or in mind. Since
his return, after taking a rest, he finds him
self much improved but as a rule he prefers
to stand up for his health rather than sit
down. When he becomes tired of walking
around rather than occupy a chair he pre
fers the mofe comfortable manner of lying
down to rest. He has seldom been seen oc
cupying a chair of late but when he does he
generaly sits on the extreme corner or on
ona of the front posts. His victuals go
down well because he generaly stands up to
eat them. A few more day3 of "grief and
woe" willj however, place our esteemed
friend in a much more comfortable condition

My interpretation of the game laws is to
the effect that from the 1st of January to
the 1st of July, no deer of any kind what
soever may be killed for food or Otherwise.
Is this correct ! If so hunting with hounds
is of course prohibited. Hounds do more
damage to the game than all the still hunt
ers in existence. Our legislature should
have made war on hounds instead of on still
hunters. A tax on dogs would have been
in the right direction.
Ed. : Our understanding is that killing
deer is prohibited during the time above
named in Mr. Nash's letter. Yet we are
unable to say positively because we have
not yet been able to get an authentic copy
of the late game law, the same not yet hav
ing been published.
