SIRA W«EliRY Cl LITRE. c MITCHELL DONS HIS WAR PAINT RE A F oul M urder .—The Portland papers are filled with the details of a murder which occurred about four miles above that city on the 34. It seems that two men, well known in that city, named Douglass Thomas and Thomas I). Davis, were chopping cord-wood. About 2 o’clock Saturday morning the man Thomas came to Police headquar ters in the city and related that near midnight, while he and his companion were sleeping, some one rapped at the 4 door, awakening them. Thomas, sus pecting no danger, arose and opened the door, when two men, masked with gunny sacks over their heads, en tered the cabin. One of them pre sented a cocked pistol to Thomas’" head and ordered him to remain quiet on pain of instant death. The other picked up a hatchet lying on the cabin floor and approaching Davis, who was lying on the bed, and asked him : “1» your name Thomas D. Davis?” Davis replied, “Yes, and you have got the drop on me.” Without saying a word the man dealt Davis four or live heavy blows on the head with the murderous implement, literally chopping his skull to pieces. He then drew the lifeless liody partially out of tho bed and stabbed it several times. Not content with the ghastly and bloody work ho had already accomplished, tbe assassin cut Davis’ throat from ear to ear. During this time Thomas says be was compelled to stand by and witness this horrible piece of butchery. The other man stood by with a cocked pistol at his head, and to give the alarm, or make the least move, would have been his death signal. Thomas was then taken outside by his guard, while the other proceeded to lire the cabin. He was then released, when he started for the city. When Chief Lappeus arrived at the scene of the murder, he found the cabin almost entirely consumed and the remains of the murdered man all burned up except a very small portion of the flesh, and the bones crumbled to ashes as a »on as touched. The Coroner was notified and an inquest held, but no new facts were elicited. A thorough search failed to reveal any trace of the perpe trators of the deed or any clue by which they could be apprehended. The murdered man is said to have been an industrious and/peaceable citizen. He was about 15 years of age. Sever al years ago he resided in Canyon City, and prior to c nuiug to Portland was separate«! from his wife.
