Killed by a Horse. Our Monroe corres
pondent hus kiudly furnished us with a private
letter to Alex Lamb of that place from Lepp

who was born sud raised in Lane county foul

few years, a resident near Ileppner, while try
in; to hitch a span of horses to a hack on the
17th inst,, on of the horses, a large 1300 poun
der, becoming fractious, kicked Mr Ferguson
with both feat, on foot striking him on the
right groin, about even with the navel, and th
other stroke was about three or four inches to
th right. The letter above alluded to was
frem the attending physician, L F Shipley, M
D., who states that the kick which struck near
the navel was the fatal stroke. He died en
the morning of the 19th, after suffering very
severely, and was mortifying internally when
he died. Th deceased was well known to
the writer ever since boyhood. He was an
honorable, industrious and well respected citi
zen, and a brother-in-law to our fellow towns
man, the Hon John Burnett Gazette.

great deal of wheat was destroyed all through

The Eugene corr sspondent of th Oregon

Th bop vise in this coanty art now is

are iu the burr and promise fair yield,
in this crusty, however, there has sine last
year bees t decrease iu acreage of our bop
yards, consequently thr will not b as
many bale a that of last year. Grower
will know that this will not aflert the mar
ket price, as we do not raise enough to male
any impression as far as quantity is con
cerned. The report of last year showed
that Oregon hops a a whole were the best
picked and cured on the coast, aud if our
growers will only adhers to the rule of do
ing good work they will have us trouble iu
realiziug paying price for their hops. Some
times we bear growers complaining that "so
and so" did not pick as clean and cur as
good hi ps as themselves and yet realifed as
much iu the market. This we know has of
ten occurtd, but oue thing must be remem
bered, if bad picking and careless work in
drying and baling if followed for a year or
two our growers will soon lose their reputa
tion as bop growers ami will realize but lit

careful drying aud baling be the rule auioug

Death of Bishop Haven.
Salem, Aug 2. Rev. Krastns Otis Haven,
D 1), L L 1), bishop of the Methodist Epis
copal church, died her to day at 2 o'chvk
PJM, of u ramie poisoning, at the residence
of Rev J N Denuison, aged 10 years. His
wife and son were present. He made his
will on Saturday and requested to be buried
ia Lee Mission Cemetery near this city. He
was elected bishop last year.
Nearly four week ago, he left California
to attend conferences in this btato. He was
not well at the time, but came to Salem,
where he attended the commencement exer
cises sf Willamette University, and was im
mediately afterwards confined to bis bed,
with what was thought to be intermittent
fever. The case was not considered danger
ous until Saturday last, at which time Dr
W H Watkius, of Portland, was telegraphed
for. The patient was found to be in a pre
carious condition, and preseutcd symptoms
of congestive chill, with nausea and vomit
ing, which preveuted the use of customary
remedies. After the administration of stim
ulants hypodermicaliy, the bishop rallied,
and it was hoped, would soon recover. A
sudden relapse this morning carried him ail.

Gilked Again.
The people of Eugene are ever ready to
be imposed upon by nearly every traveling
humbug that puts in an appearance The
last was Wednesday night, when a good
house assembled at Lane Hall to be thor
oughly bilked by a company of darkeys styl
ing themselves Kentucky Jubilee Singers.
They numbered thirteen, but it has never
before bceu our lot to wituess a so utterly
miterable performance by a crowd that put
on so much stylo. With the exctptiou of a
few jubilee sougs our amateurs could do far
bettor. Tbo burnt cork artist is far super-1
ior to tho genuine article. There is one von
Halation, howevsr, that is they never iutfict
their presence upon a town but one niht.
Tho lower valley press should ventilate
thsee Africans, and savo thuir poople from

Work AT thb Bay. The Government
work at Yaquina Bay mid-ir tho manage
ment of Eugineer Polhemus, is now under
headway in earnest. Tin! p opped pl.m of
sinking cribs on the bar and then filling
them with stoua to keep them iu place has.
Ueu abandoned. Wo are informed that this
crib system was not the one proposed by Mr
Polhemus, as it was bis opinion that the
cribs could not be successfully fastened, and
his first attempt fully verified his former
prediction and tho plan suggested by him,
that of constructing a tramway and building
the jettiei from the shore out, has been
adopted iu detail, and the work will be con
tinued iu this way in future. The crib that
was attempted to be sunk, is uow being
used as oue of the shore abutments for the
present plan of work. From Mr Trice, from
the head olfice In Portland, we learn that
the plans are uow fully matured and will be
carried out without delay or hindrance. By
this plan the work can be prosecuted in all
kinds of weather even though the bar be ever
so rough. Gazette.
Nearly an Accident. A young man by
the name of Thompson, on Tuesday, drove
his team of four horses into the mill race to
water; he imprudently stepped out on the
tongue to let the check reins down, when
one of the leaders became friehtened and
kicked him on the back of the head, render
inir him fora short time sensulets. iueteam
then ran away breaking the tonguoand some
other gear of the wagon. The young mail
soon recovered from the kick, but got a good
duckiug.
Incendiary. A fire was disoovored,
Thursday night about 11 o'clock, in a barn
near the brewery. Fortunately it gained no
headway before the discovery or we should
have a disastrous conflagration to record. The
fire was plainly the work of an incendiary,
as an old sock was found afterwards near by
saturated with that oil, and th smell perva
ded the building. The city council should
offer a reward for the arrest of any one at
temptiag incendiary work.
