Deceased was born in Missouri in 1325, and came to Oregon and settled in Polk county, where he resided until his death. By occupation he was a farmer.

At Albany on Friday afternoon of last week a man named Charles Denny, of this city, attempted to shoot Mrs. Millie Smith, daughter of Mr. Adam Radir who resides a short distance across the river. The cir cumstances which led up to the attempted murder are as follows: Mrs. Smith lives with her parents and has so resided since her separation from her husband some years aso. Denny had been employed by Mr. Radir ou the farm until some months since, when he accepted a position iu the Corvallis flouring mills. For some time Mrs. S. received the attentions of Denny and subsequently refused to become his wife. Denny ; continued his visits, however, until it became necessary for her to renounce him altogether. He became engaged to, and married another lady who, soon afterward obtained a divorce from him. Denny then desired to renew his attentions to Mrs. Smith and for some time past has followed her footsteps insidiously, importuned her and subjected the unfortunate lady to much humiliation by his actions. Mrs. S. had repeatedly told Denny that did she desire to marry him her relations to Smith would prevent as she was not divorced. Ou Thursday night as Mrs. S. was finish ing work in the kitchen Denny appeared at a large open window and when sho ap proached to entreat him to leave he grasped ber-and drew her to the outside and carried her to the road. Meantime her screams at tracted her father, who had retired, and a farm Hand named Hansen. The family were unprepared for such a turn of affairs but Mr. Radir seized an unloaded shotgan for which there was uo ammunition, and with Mr. Hansen, went to the rescue. Mr. Ra dir drew up the gun and commanded Denny to loose his grasp on his daughter, but in stead of complying, the villain placed Mrs. Smith before him, drew a revolver himself and ordered the rescuers to stand back Denny appeared to have' the better of the situation, and after many fruitless en deavors to induce him to surrender his prize, the father started to this city for assistance, instructing the hired man to remain close to his daughter. It appeared to be the' purpose of Denny to bring Mrs. S. to this city, away from the influence and protection of her father, when he hoped that she, by threats or otherwise, could be induced to marry him. During the two hours succeeding the departure of Mr. Radir Mrs. S. was carried and dragged a distance of a ftfile in the direction of Cor vallis, she the while struggling to free her self and imploring Hansen not to leave her. Mr. Radir first endeavored to secure the assistance of Sheriff Mackay but that gen tleman did not regard the case H one in which he could legally take action, the' of fense being committed in Linn county. Mr. Radir at length1 obtaiued other assist ance. On the way to the scene it was" de cided rather than risk a tragedy, that tacit agreement be made that objections to a marriage be withdrawn in order to induce Denny to allow the lady to remain at home and that his arrest be made on' the morrow. In pursuance of the plan the release of Mrs. Smith was effected without difficulty, and quiet reigned for the tiire being. The next chapter appears in the Albany Herald thus: "Yesterday morning Mr. Radir canie to this city to procure Denny's arrest. In the meantime Denny had come to Albany and had secured a marriage license, James Mur ray being his witness. He engaged Justice Humphery to perform1 the ceremony, and agreed to meet him at Schmeer's livery sta ble to take him with team to Corvallis. Mr. Humphrey had gone to the stable, wheu Mr. Radir accompanied by his daugh ter, and the hired man Hansen, drove up in a buggy. He began talking about the case and they went into the office of the stable, While they were there Dennv came in. He ovhil.ifs.l his marriage license. . and told Mrs. Smith to go with him'. She refused to leave her father, when Denny seized her and attempted to take her out of the office. Mr. Humphrey and others prevented him from doing this, when he stepped backward, and drawing a revolver, fired at Mrs. bmith. As he did so' James Wheeler, an employe in the stable, seized his arm and the shot went wild and struck the wall. The ball nar rowly missed Justice Humphrey, as well as the lady for whom it was intended. Afteif a fierce tussle Denny was overpowered and led off to the jail by Marshal Hoffman, but iu the encounter he struck Hansen several severe blows over the head with his revol ver, which laid the scalp open to tire' skull. He also seized Mrs. Smith by the throat and choked her until she wa3 black in the face and kicked at her most viciously. "Denny was arraigned before Justice Humphrey. The court having full knoWl edge of the murderous assault, declined to hear any witnesses, and very properly plac ed his bonds at $5000, and was incarcerated in jarl to await the action of the grand jury."

S.-T-.HOT" The Aamold Concert. -r-Herr A, Aamold, the grett Norwegian violinist, appeared in the Presbyterian church in this city on Wednesday evening, under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society. The church was comfortably filled by persons, the majority of whom were qualified to appreciate the efforts of the musician. His selections wer entirely from the great composers and it is seldom that the people of any city have the opportunity of hearing these masterpieces so well executed. The wonderful powers of the violin could not better be exemplified than in the performances of Heir Aamold. The programme was interspersed with instrumental music by the Arion or chestra, a recitation by Miss Leon Louis, solo by Hhv. E. R. Prichard, selections by the Manerchor quartette, etc., all rendered with the usual suc cess of the performers. The concert was a great treat, especially for those who have given some attention to clas sical music:. Returned. Mr. C. Nicholson, who sailed for London and Channel Island for a visit Ust October, has returned. He was accompanied on his homeward journey by a number of relatives and friends, including Mr. and Mrs. A.
