SCENE OF INDESCRIBABLE FURY. LIST OF TUB rillLDKKI .TIOMT SB ItlOl aLY II HIT. Geuvais, FeK 4. The storm of yes. terday struck the east Hide of Gervais at ahout 3 o'clock in the afternoon sweeping everything before it It came in a southeasterly direction, and was alout 200 yards in width. It was first seen about a mile from town, where it struck A. Woodington's place, demol ibhing outhouses iu a fearful manner, picking up the dwelling houso, setting it twenty feet from its foundation and pitching the inmates outiutothe storm, Some of them were badly bruised up, but nono seriously injured. The storm swept through tho fields at a terrific rate, picking up sheep and liko birds and hurling them into tho air twenty or thirty feet A number of sheep were killed As it neared town, it narrowed down to about fifty yards in width and came in a xigzag current, taking every thing before it, striking the school house on one corner. The children all ran out to save their lives and the scene that followed vus terrible. They werj lifted into the air from 20 to 30 feet among Hying timlt-rs, sidewalk planks and debris from barns and fi-n ces, and all fell to the ground senseless. Soino had their arms broken, some their heads fractured; and all nioro or Ies3 bruised, but fortunately nono were killed. Mr. Bradley's house was taken two feet from its foundation and shat tered almost to pieces. ' It so happened inai tne lamny were out vihiuiil' or a I. .11 ' t.t they would have been killed, as a num ber of neighboring outhouses and bams were thrown up against it The win. dows and doors of Mr. S. Seguires house was also broken in and the house niufo r loss damaged. From here the cyclone raised into tho ijir in the shape of a black cloud and was seen to fall again about three miles distant. It was reported that it struck near the nar row guage railroad, tearing it all to pieces, but we have no dcGuito news at this writing. It was very fortunate that it chang ed its course as it entered town, as it would have swept the whole city clean, the eastern part of the town not being so thickly settled. The damages aro not very heavy, probably $5,000 to property and stock. The injured chil dren have nearly all recovered consci ousness and are doing well, with the exception of Mr. Itock, a young man of 21 years of age, who has his arm broken in two places and is also inter nally injured. He m in a critical con dition. Ernest Brown is also very badly hurt and has his skull badly fractured. ' Following is a list of those most se riously hurt: Jay K. Barnej, seriouly; Bonnie Mitchell, slightly; Rosa Mitch ell, slightly; Tom Murphy, slightly; Felix Croly, slightly; Antoine egu re, slightly. Thirty or forty more were bruised. It was a terrible scene to behold and made the blood tun cold to see fathers and mothers picking up their prostrate children from the ditches and muddy holes and from among the debria The scene will never be forgotten by our citizens and can only be described by those that witessed it as a most terrible and heart rending calamity. A well was recently sunk in front of the hotel at Linkville, aud at the usual . depth an excellent spring of good cold wtor wm struck. It being thought advisable to go deeper, the workmen ' proceeded a few feet further and found a heavy stream of boiling water, suih as ! is frequently found in the Klamath 1 basin. As a Summer beverage this j water is undesirable, but for culinary purpose a it will be most convenient, j and when cooled is ve ry pleasant ai.d i healthfnL The expeuses of Government print-, ing for the currmt fiscal year are over' $2,000,000, the ComjrtMiouul Globe alono costing about $130,000; the Ag- nessof 1879, and that exceeded any i n ' ..:',..:... . w .l. ..r , ricultural Bureau's riiiuii ufnujjg It . a r. r. a. 1 -, 1 I a'wut ?2JJ,UW ana its ninograpuing .j .,,..;. .u tliOnon Th ought to be a great deal of agricultural knowledge disseminated at that pnoe. Ilie ftcffShftp Law. By tho provisions of the act to pre vent the spread of contagious diseases among sheep, now in force, it is the duty of the county court in each coun ty to appoint an inspector of sheep who shall have power to appoint deputies to the number of one for each precinct in the county, if he deem it necessary. It is the duty of Ihe inspector to ex amino the various hands of sheep iu his district, and whenever lie finds any af fected with scab to notify the owners or those having charge- of them to tepa rats the diseased sheep from tho others and take measures to cure them. If the owners or manager), refuse or nog lect to remove the diseased sheep from tho Imnd at ouce, or negloct for thirty days after such notice to treat the af fected sheep, such owners or managers shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction bo punished by a fine of not less than $25 or more than $250. At the end of fifty days after notifica tion, if the owners still neglect to treat the shot-p, it is tho duty of tho inspec tor to tako them in hand himself and euro thorn, charging the owners for his services and for all necessary expenses and M-lling the sheep to pay for the same if necessary. No person however shall be required to dip or treat a band of ewes with lamb at any timo from the 15th of March to the 1 5th of May of any year. iNo person snail bring sherp into any county of the state until lie has from tho inspector a certificate that said sheep are free from scab; any one desiring to drive sheep from one section to another must have a certificate of inspection and traveling permits from an inspector. Penalty for violation of this, samo as above. A I'urioni Case. Apocryphal stories have been . in times past told of persons having all the appearanco of death, who were in reality only in a trance. But a cu rious circumstance has just occurred at I'altinioro that needs to be accouuted for. The daughter of a , wealthy Ger man apparently died, and was to have x en buried threo duys thereafter, but the faco of the supposed corpse as sumed a life-like hue, and seemed to lave partly turned on its side. The uce continued to grow rosy, and the imbs were no longer cold or stilF. In a few days there was another change; the body became rigid and cold, and several physicians declared that tho girl was really dead. The funeral then took place, but the relatives wero so uneasy- that they visited the vault next dny, and were startled to find that the warmth and color had returned to the dy. The coffin is left open at the cemetery, and the question whether the girl is dead or sleeping is exercising the J community. If it should turn out that she is really dead the extraordinary phenomena presented by tho body will puzzlo the scientists. If she is only sleeping, that will be a no less difficult matter to intelligently account for. In either event the case presents a curious study. Some weeks since, Wm. Black, who was, working a mining claim on Rogue river with a man by the name of Shaw turned up missing, and it was given out that he had been drowned. Now comes tho Fort Orford Post which says that a body wa found near there, evi- dently from the river, and there is a knife- wound in the neck. The body has not yet leea identified yet but tin-re can hardly be a doubt of its idon tity with the unfortunate Black. This M eek Sheriff Hogan received from JJuntsville, North Carolina, a letter from j;nck'M brother that it was their jM.i,.f tl,at jie hftd fouy d?alt with We understand that Shaw has l,.ft the claim and gone to one below.

Jackson, of Hillsboro, From the Hillsboro Independent of a recent dato we take the following ac count of a mysterious attempt at mur der; "The town was startled Tuesday morning to hear that W. R. Jackson, an old and wealthy citizen of this place, had been shot during the night while asleen in bed in his house. As many different reports of tho afTuir have gone out we sought an interview with the wounded man and present to our read er Mr. Jackson's account of this singu lar attempt to assassinate him. Mr. Jackson says that he and his wife went to bed late Monday night He . slept )cfore and Ins wife In-hind, as was the custom. He went to sleep, lying with his face and body inclined somewhat to the right sido fronting the room. About 7 o'clock in tho morning a shot RANG IN IIIS EARS, When ho awoke and found he was shot in the head, aud turned to his wife and said, "Ellen, I am shot; go for the doc tor; tell Dr. Bailey to come and bring his instruments." Mrs. Jackson ran out, and then Mr. Jackson went out to the yard gate a few steps from th front of the house to see if he could Gnd any tracks, but the blood streamed out of tho wound so that it blinded lim. Then ho hallooed to awaken Mr. Dailey, who lives in Dr. Boyte's old residence, but receiving no' response, returned to his bed and lay down to await the arrival of the doctor. He knows ho was perfectly sensible all the time, for while he lay there he I1KARP THE CLOCK BTR1KE Seven and counted the strokes. Dr. Bailey then cam and made an exami nation of the wound by probing it. The doctor says the wound was made with a pistol ball, and that it struck the frontal Inane of the head over and just above tlio right eye, crushing the skull in its course, and came out on the samo side, near the outer angle' of the same eye. The wound was powder burnt where the ball entered. The brain was not injured nor the mem brane covering it, but the Dr. says the eight of an inch more would have cost tho man his life, It is a little lingu lar that no place can lie found iu the room where the ball lodged. . UK. JACK80X'S THEORY. Mr Juukson says that he is supposed to havo money about him, and that ha has heard men prowling about bis house of nights at various times. II gives out the impression that this deed was an attempt at robbery, but that tho failure to kill him at the first shot and the danger of awaking the neigh bors from a prolonged struggle, fright ened the assailants away. He says that he had received $500 by express -the day before, and that there were one or two persons not connected with the office that knew it In support of this theory, he says that his wife said that when she went after the doctor she found the outsido door open. Ho thinks that he may not have locked the door when he went to bed, as the door does not close easily, and the bolt may not have entered the guard. He- says he has a DOUBLE-BARRELED 8HOTOCN' In his bedroom which is always loaded. And ho has a derringer, which is a Smith i Wesson seven-shooter, but which he says he never carries, and which he left unloaded, but it was kept in the bedroom, and on examina tion after ho was shot he says every chamber was empty. A gentleman who examined it informed us that one cham ber of this derringer had fresh signs of having been fired recently. Mr. Jack son said he had shot a rat with it a few days previously, having only loaded and discharged one chamber. THE WARXIXO. Strange it is that warnings ofteni eome to men when their doom is im- ending. Mr. Jackson had been strange- . y nervous for several days previous to this dreadful attack on his life. His bed formerly stood with the head tow ard the west, opposite an east window, but he changed it about with the ' head toward the east for he said to his wife, "A man could shoot me in the head from the window." And he has had some horrible dreams. Just the other night he dreamed that he was butcher ing cattle and that his face was all oot e red with warm blood.
