A party advertising in the OOaJD) says he
bclievea his Clydesdale horses to be tho only
puro bred in Eugene, his authority being
the Americau Clydesdale Stud Hook. He
t .ink. be knows this Ivcanse his are regis
tered and mine are not; till- does uot make
his auy purer bred than miue, for the reason
that the ari nt stock of mv horses waa
brought from Scotland in 1871, 7 yra. laifore

claim that the two Clydesdales, ltrutus aud
Hector, aro as pine bred as any iu Oregon.
The sire of Brutus was bought iu Scotland
by S. G- Heed of Portland in 171, waa bred
by Mr. In II of Woodbouse, aud sold as a
pure bred Clydesdale. He also bought
Kittle l'istier a mare that was winner of tour
Itist premiums in Scotland with other full
blood in .res at the MM time and h bred
from them ever since. Old Emperor, the
nist full blot.d Clyde brought lo Oregon,
and the eipial of any ever brought here was
not registered. Glctnlg, another pure bred,
bought by Major brace of lleutoti at the
Ceuicuuial, aud many others were uot reg
istered because it waa before the day of leg
istertug. I will stand by thu merits of
llruliia aa a pure bred by hia breeding that
he will breed aa uniform colts as auy Clydes
dale horse in Oregon. Mr. I.add says he
will show live mares of Ilia get, against any
five iu the state. His sou, King Fergus,
was awarded the lirst preuiaim at tbo Port
laud fat stock show over all draft horses uml
live of them were just imported from the
States. 1 will exhibit Uve of his sucking

William S. I.tuld.
A correspondent of the East Oregonian
has the following interesting description of
Mr. W. S. Ladd:
Speaking of Ladd, reminds mc of passing
that gentleman's residouco the other evening
ist as the old man waa entering. His Car
riage hailed iu the rear of his residence. A
body servant, who sits bosido the driver,
alighlod, assisted his charge to the ground
aud placed a pair of crutches uuder his arms.
Slowly the old cripple dragged himself
arouud to the front slops of his mansion.
Kvery move seemed to cause him pain. Hit
(ace gave uumistakable signs of suffering.
When bo Dually reached tho loot of the steps
leading to tho front doors, the servant
brought him a wooden Irame resomhliog a
coutrivance sometimes used to teach babies
to walk. This was put over hia bead and
the ascent was made by placing the frame
on the stopa and crawling up while his body
was supported by the arms, tho frame being
raised as esch step was reached. When at
the top his crutches wore again handed to
him, the great double doors swuug upon
their hinges, and the old millionaire disap
peared. 1 stood there iu front of that beau
tiful place aud commenced to think and say
to myself: "That man is worth millions of
mouev and I am n poor aou-of-a-gnn.
There's mv faithlul, hard-working little wife
toasting herself over the kitchen stove pre
paring our frugal meal; there are three chub-
iiy Utile urcliius wltn tier, ami we aru an
poor. For their sakes, how I would like) to
tie rich How I wnuld dress them; bow I
would feeil tin in, how happy I would make
them' ' Thou 1 thought in another direc

great acres ami herds; yon may nave your
notes aud nioilgagea ami alocka ami ooiias;

A TtlTtble Accident.
Mouday, April 15th, word was brought to
this city from Jones A Co. 's mill, that a
young man by thu name of Ivcu Powell had
been killed while oiling the machinery pre
paratory lo the day's work. Mr. Powell waa
a young man alamt years ol age, nts
pareuts liviug near l'eudleton, this state.
Ho has been iu the employ of Jones k Co.
siuce last October. It seems that Powell's
btisiuess iu the motuiug was to oil tbo ma
lum, rv before starttug, but being a little
late the engine had been started aud the
saws were goiug at thu rale of fifty revolu
tions a minute and he, without aloppiug the
saw attempted to oil the beaiings by crawl
ing between the saw anil frame WDlcn were
separated bv alamt twenty inches. The saw
caught his coat near the shoulder aud drag
id tbe arm to tbo saw snipping it clean ol
iesh; this brought his body dowu and the
saw caught bun oil thu neck, cutting the
jugular vein aud throwing him across the
curriage. I he only words u spoke were
My t ....I. Iwo men attempted to lioiii
the jugular vein together with their fingers,
but be bled to deuth iu tweuty miuutes. He
was unconscious sll the time. The mill waa
hut dowu and a messenger despatched to
this city. His folks (fata teh graphed and
everything uecosaary attended to. Ills death
was caused by bis owu carelessuess it ap
pears, as last Friday he oiled the uiacbiuery
in the sunn, manner and 1,1s pain s leg was
caught iu the saw, hut before any serious
accident happened bis leg was pulled away
oy a fellow laborer.
Only three teeth of the suw showed signs
of being in coutaet with llosb, aud they are
about equally distributed urouiid the eir
oumfereucu ol the saw.- McMiuuvillu Tele
