JAS. EGLIN DISAPPEARS.
Strangely Vanishes Saturday
Morning Doubtless a Vic-
tim of the Willamette.
Saturday iiiorniiig about 1:30
o'clock James Eglin drove into
Corvallis and has not been seen
since, lhere is a strangeness con
necteu with ins disappearance
and several sensational matters
surrounding the case have given
rise to t-.oiint less rumors more or
less wild, so ijiai the casu has re
ceived iiioiv than u-nal public at
tent ion. '
Pree horn surmises and unau
thenticated rumors, so far as is
absolutely Known, 1 lie si orv is as
follows:
Friday night James Eglin
who, with his father, owns an
operates a liverv stable here
drove to Albany in a buggy. lak
ing a drummer with him. Later
Win. William, an employe o
Hhe stable, drove to Albaiiy will
two Corvallis women. AImhiI
10 o'clock, Loth E'jrlin and Wil
lianis went lo Suhmeer s stable lor
their riiiirjries-and IhB-two women
arrived bitei. They arranged
for each buggy 'lo take one wo
man, but one of (he women ob
jected to Eglin's .driving, as lie
W8. h said, very intoxicated
SuhmeerJ assured her that "Eglin
was a -safe drtvei ami the two
conveyances started homeward
They reached Mona Smith's place
which is about one mile below the
big prune farm, at ten minutes
past eleven. Both buggies halted
here until live minutes past
twelve, lliey talked loudly and
passed around a bottle frequently,
Mr. and Mrs M. Smith heard them
talking, but most of the conversa
tion was of an obscene nature and
neither would repeat it. Mr. Smith
said that Egl in did not seem to
take any part in the conversation;
that a! hough ho was frequently
addressed bv the others, he m; de
no audible replv,
Leaving the Mona Smith place,
the party drove on towards home.
When the buggies reached Mr.
Hart's house, a short distance
below Corvallis, the woman
riding with Mr. Egliu became
alarmed at his driving, which
seemed recuiess, ana at ner re
quest, both vehicles came to a
stand. She then came to town in
Williams' rig, leaving
Eglin
to
follow after. It was then shortly
after one o'clock. Previous' to
this, it seems that Eglin's bug
had tipped over and Williams had
helped right it.
When Williams reached town.
he let the wi-iuen alight and drove
to the stable. Finding that Egliu
had hot arriVed 'he waited a lew
minutes aim men urove down in
search of him, accampanied by
Charley Smith, out ..failed .to find
him. Williams and Smith tkten
returned to the stable.
A , few minutes iUer, fiyKg
lin's team came ttlSibjJUvifli
out the driver ofcyiiiqS. with
three of the tugs tied up. Search
was then renewed and the bu .gy
was discovered on Water street
near the residence of A. Hodes.
The top had been torn, irom the
buggy and replaced, and from
tracks in and around a shed .con
nected with the electric light
works, it is evident that Eglin had
driven in there and doubtless tore
foff the top when entering.
From the horses' and a man's
track, it is thought that Eglin
unhitched the horses where the
buggy stands and drove them
up Water street to the Kisor res
idence, in front of which tracks
indicated that the horses had
stood or tramped around for some
time. From this place a. man's
footprints were traced leading to
the river bank, down over it and
into the water. .Eglin's pipe
was found near here and every
thing indicates that the unfortur
nate young man found death in
the Willamette.
OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES.
While rumors of foul play
were rife for awhile, there is
nothing to warrant such a the
ory. While the affair is certain
ly strange and . mysterious, it is
best explained by the assump
tion of stupor or temporary in
sanity. It is highly probable
that when the buggy was upset,
Mr. Eglin received some injury
in the head, unknown to his
companions. It is not impossi
ble that he, a stableman, should
retain enough reason to handle
the horses and yet lose all
knowledge of locality.
Mrs. Hodes and Mrs. Clark,
who live -near the place where
the buggy was found, heard
some one driving around the
block several times Saturday
morning between 4 and 5 o'clock.
One of the ladies, later, heard
some one staggering on the side
walk. This was probably after
Eglin unhitched the horses and
would indicate that he was not
around the Kisor place long,
but that most of his time after
Williams left him was spent
around the electric light works.
The river has been watched
and dragged every day," but the
body has not been recovered.
James Eglin was well known
in Benton county, having resided
in Corvallis nearly all his life.
He has kept close to his .busi
ness and was a young man with
few enemies. He leaves a young
wife and child. His father is
Thomas Eglin, a well-known
and esteemed citizen, and his
brother, Geo. F. -Eglin, and sis
ter, Mrs. Jas. Flett, are also re
spected members of the com
munity.
Prisoner for Debt
Recently there was tried a case
in the county court of Lincoln
county for malicious arrest and
false imprisonment, which resulted
in lavor of the imprisoned debtor
in the sum of $500. No court or
jury in this state will allow the
criminal side of the law to be used
or prostituted lor collecting debts
out of this liberty or body of an
unlortuiiate debtor. The case of
Murphy vs. Gorman will serve as
a land mark lo future Shylocks.
W. P. Murphy, one ol the pioneers
of 1852, settled in Polk county and
has been a citizen of Oregon for
the past 44 years. That this old
gray veteran should be crowded
into a felon's cell to satisfy the
spleen of a creditor seems strange.
In 1895 Murphy went over to Ya
quina and embarked in the fishing
business, and about the middle of
December he came out to Sa
1 in to dispose of some fish. While
there he received a letter from
California .-talin that -his daugnler
was seriously s'ck and requesting
that ho come at once. The old
mERi was short ot funds, and in or
dee to m ike the trip and pay cer
tain .-mall debts to his fishermen,
borrowed from h 8 sister ?75. He
purchased a through ticket to 'Fris
c(rver t!ie line f the 0.: O, & E.
R.:.R. for $12, and relurned to Ya
qurnaon December liJth. lie iriet
Gwrman at Toledo and informed
him fully of Ile sickness of his
daughter, borrowing ol the money,
etc., and that he 'would likely"'-be
gone three weeks. He then stated
to him that lie desired to settle up
all his mailers on the Bay, and re
quested Gorman to furnish him
with hi bill lor merchandise, this
was done and Murphy's note given
for same in tile sum of $37.10 on
December 20th, but by Gorman
dated back to September 1st. Mur
phy was assigned to ins Dirt.11 on
the F.-.ralon which was expected
to leave lor 'Frisco wiihin a -.lew
dajs. In the mean while he paid
every debt settling with Gorman
by note. ' Gorman concluded l hat
he must either have the money
or security about the 2th of De
cember, but was informed by
Murphy that it was impossible lor
him to pay the money, and pro
po ed to turn -over his fish dry
ing outfit as security for I he
note. This was refused, and then
came the tvreat, '-cash or county
jajl." Proceeding extraordinary,
signed by Gorman and the justice
were at once placed in the hand
ol the constable, commanding him
lo take custody of the old man 011
the "absconding debtor theory."
Then followed the shame of live
days imprisonment by the consta
ble, which failed lo produce , the
cash. "Gorman then took a firmer
grip on the body of the debtor and
joined the J. P. in a warrant to the
effect that Murphy be confined to
the jail until the debt was paid.
Under this strange mandate' the
doors of the"county jail of Lincoln
clanged in the ears of the old pio
neer on Jan. 3, 1S9G, and there he
remained for 15 days in that lone
ami dismal lock-up on the mud
flat. Sheriff Landis restored him
to liberty for the reason that Gor
man relused to pay for (he custody
of the prisoner, . Murphy, on be
ing liberated, instituted action for
the infamous outrage against Gor
man,jwith the result stated.
Taught a New Song.
-The Salvation army officers are
under obligations to Police Officer
William Skipton, for he has put a
new song in their lips. Theywere
wont to cry, "Oh, the children of
the Lord have a right lo shout and
sing," but its different now:
The army parades the streets
nightly with drum and tamborines.
These have long ceased to be at
tractive novelties, and of late some
ot the men have supplimented
their musical program with Co
manche-like yells.
Now it was but a week ago when
Officer Skipton arrested a Oorval-
is man, somewhat intoxicated, for
yelling on Main street, and an ex
amination of the statutes failed to
reveal that the law made any dis
tinction between those that dis
turbed the peace while under the
spirit of holiness and those that
acted similarly under the persua
sion of more material spirits. Mr.
Skipton, therefore, warned the
army men to cease shouting when
marching the sheets.. .Monday
night he marched behind them to
see. that they obeyed.
The army kept quiet, vocallv,
for a time, but when down by "the
hotel Corvallis, Lieut. Hooker con
cluded that the officer had left
them and he gave a yell that would
have been the prv e of any calli
ope bkipton was right on band
: t hooked Hooker, taking him
id casting him into prison. After
yuig 1:1 the miiigeon an Hour, lie
was released; Mr. u. V. Hurt go
ig his bail. ' - ,
Tuesday allernoon the case came
up before City Judge Porter and
liter consulting with City "Attorney
Wilson the case was dismissed
upon Hooker promising to indulge
no more in the prohibited pastime.
Moral: If you wish to break
the law, don't get drunk, but join
the Salvation army. It's cheaper.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS.
Dr. R. O. Loggan, of Philomath,
was
in town yesterday.
A. W. Cauthorn, connected with the
Oregonian's " business office, and wife
were in Corvallis this week visiting rel
atives. Hon. J. B. Irvine returned from Alsea
Wednesday. While at Waldport, he or
ganized a lodge of Maccabees with 27
charter members. J. 3. looks.as though
clam and crab diet agreed with him.
Several Corvallis people are being
treated by a California specialist, for
impediment of speech. As part of the
course requires temporary rest of the vo
cal organs, these gentlemen must not be
charged with coldness when they refuse
to speak to acquaintances.
Cards announcing the marriage of Oli
ver B. Gates and Miss Lena Waggoner,
both of Hillsboro, OFegon,; have been re-4
ceived in Corvallis. Mr. Gates resided
here several years ago, and two, years was
a ctudent at the Agricultural college. He
has many friends here who extend con
gratulations. "Si Perkins" attracted a large crowd
to the opera house, last night and while
the company is much stronger than
when seen here before, the music of both
band and orchestra was a great disap
pointment.' The audience seeuied to
heartily enjoy ther: performance. The
"hayseed" parade in the afternoon drew
many people dowi. town.
In today's Gazrttb i Messrs. Nolan
& Callahan make their annual clearance
sale, announcement. It has been the
custom of this well-known house to
make sundry reductions iu prices on their
goods the first of each year, and their
announcement this week is only in
compliance with a long-established
practice. Messrs. Nolan and Callahan's
clearance sales are boua fide.
James Stewart had a runaway Wednes
day. His buggy was hitched near Hersh
ner's store, aud the old gentleman, un
tying the hoH;, started to climb into the
buggy, when the. Si Perkins band struck
up, frightening the animal. It started to
run, tlirowiug Mr. Stewart down and the
buccv struck him in passing, but, for-
tu a'e'y, inflicting no sericu? injury. The
horse was stopped after a brief spin.
Chief of Police Wells has some new
acquaintance cards. They are orna
mented with pictures of sk -.ll and cross
bones, and have this . laconic legend;
"Tramps, bummers, hobos and beggars
are not wanted in Corvallis. So git C.
B. Wells, Chief of Police."" When the
chief hands this card to a new comer, he
might as well obey. How the chief will
manage with blind beggars is yet a mys
tery. Mrs. Martha Hoffman has retnmeiHo"
Oregon; and is now visiting the family of
D. P. Mason in Albany. Mrs. Hoffman
expresses herself as delighted'to find her
self again in Webfoot. She encountered
severe storms on the trip home, but is en
joying splendid health. , Her daughter,
Maud, is yet with Daly's company, but
has signed to play with E. 3. Willard,
the English actor, next year, as leading
lady,

A sort of boycott against the Oregon
nian has been instituted in Corvallis this
week. A representative arrived Sunday,
and notified Con Gerhard, the accomo
dating stationery and niws depot man,
that he was do longer agent of the paper
and that two small boys would hereafter
have charge of the route. Mr. Gerhard
was surprised and, inquiring the reason,
was given some trivial answer. The bus
iness men of Corvallis resented this
treatment of a brother business man aad
a number have already stopped the pa
per. They hava no complaint against
the Oregonian itself, but do protest
against its business management &s con
cerns Corvallis. Mr. Gerhard had given
satisfaction as agent and there was no
complaint against him from subscribers.

Ralph Terrell, the well-known Q. A.

Saturday night It was not only ua-pleasant-r-it
was costly also.
r, Walking.. toward Cauthorn Hall, he
met tvroiimen in the lane leading to the
Col. Hogg house. He thought they were
"Sehool boys until they met. One cried,
'Hand-fcvei1 your purse !" Looking
lr.oundy Ralph saw a pistol in the hands
of bis temporary acquaintances, and an
expectant air in the attitude of the other.
Ralph had a purse containing $18. He
did not- enjoy losing the money, but
neither did he like the looks of the re
volver. He handed over his purse with
out a word and when the robbers told
him to move on) he moved.
