The wound was inflicted by the canine
whilst in a playful mood allii is not
serious; but as these are the 'dog-days
people owning pups cannot be 'too
careful with them. There are too many
dogs -about town any way, and" the
' sooner three-fourths of them are "col
onized" the better.
Not Many Fish. Fishing parties
'to Rogue River are all the go now. A
party consisting of Herman -Helmes,
E. Jacobs, T. 13. Kent, Ere1 iuy, W.
J. Plyinalu and J. H. Huner "drove to

ing with salmon 'running up from the

didn't break from the multitude of tish
caught on the occasion ulluded to.

Died, at his residence in Eden pre
cinct, Jackson count1, August 13th,
1880, after a brief illness, Samuel D.
Van Dyke, aged 71 years and 7 dayR.
The immediate.cause of the death of
tho deceased was an accident which be
fell him on the 31st day ef July, whilst
in charge of a two horse spring wagon
and whilst travelling wiffi his wife and
niece to Ashland. In going down a
"grade in the road the trace lecame un
fastened f roui ihe veh'cle and Air. Yan
Dyket hplding&nto the lines was jerk

ground. In "the fall he broke the cap
of the h'p and received such other bod
ily injuries the effects,of which hasten
ed his death. The horses running
away left the wagon standing and for
tunately no ono else was injured.
Air. Yan Dyke was born in Butler
county, Penu., Aug. 7, 1809. In 1845
lie left his native State and settled in
fowa. Leaving his family lis came to

homesteading the place where he lived
and died. He was thoroughly Identi-,
fied with tho country of his choice,
which he endeavored to build up ac
cording to his means. In character,
he was of a positive nature and deep
religious convictions. The record of
his christian life was bright and unsul
lied. Straightforward and true in his
dealings with His fellovy men, his influ
ence for good was felt wherever he
was known. Tho lamentable accident
which shortened his life did not find
him unprepared for the final summons.'
Although suffering great bodily pain,
his faith in Christ the Savior, whom
.he li'ad served for many years, bouyed
bun up and strengthened him 111 bis

from among us with, the assurance that
all was well and that a blissful immor
tality was awaiting him teyond this
valo of tears. For many years lie had
been a member of the Presbyterian
Churchy and his funeral obsequies'were
conducted by Rev. AI. A. Williams,
according to tho rites of that branch of
the Churcl) ot Christ, and. his remains
were buried at the cemetery hoar "Phoe

people. Air. Yan Dyke has been twice
married in his lifetime, his first wife
having preceded him to the better

and friends are with his present deeply
bereaved widow and only son.

That Other Route. Says the Cres
cent City "Courier" of August 11th:
Considerable enthusiasm seems to pre
vail at Smith River, upon tho subject
of their proposed new wagon road over
the mountains. .We like to seo inter
est shown in., a new enterprise, but
think it is useless for our SmitH River
friends to spend their money in survey
ing a route from there to Illinois val
ley. They certainly cannot do much
without the help of Jackson and Jose
phine counties, and it is not likely
that the people of these two
counties will bo willing, ,afer all the'
efforts tha't have been made and money
expended to sur.vey a route to Crescent
City by way of Gasquot's, to abandon
said route and spend as much time jn
looking for a route in a different direc
tion', a3 it has taken to wake up the
citizens. of Crescent City to the impor
tance of a .wagon road to Southern
Oregon. The character of tho road
proposed' to pass, jsj. pretty well known,
aud if a road can be, built with less ex
pense than can tho Crescent City
Wagon Road, we will venturo to
say tha thediffere'neo necessary for
construction, will not be worth talking
about
