SLEEPING HUNTER KILLED.
Falling Tree Strikes Dan Cox, Alash
lat off Top of Mis Head.
While sleeping in a tent on Union
creek, last night, at about 11-30, Dan
Cox was struck by a falling tree and
instantly killed. Fred Pilkington and
Herbert Leonard, who were sleeping in
the same bei with him, were uninjured,
pie place where tho accideat occurred
is about 15 miles from Nichols Station,
in the Cow creek canyon. The party of
three had been on a two weeks' hunting
trip and were expecting to return home
today.
Last night a very high wind rose in
the mountains, and trees were falling
on every hand. Without any warning,
a large fir tree crashed through the
hunters' camp, killing the unfortunate
boy instantly. A dog, which was sleep
ing near the tent, was killed. Debris of
tho tree also struck Fred Pilkington
across the breast, but he was not in
jured.
On discovery of what had occurred,
Pilkington immediately came to the
railroad, and arrived in Roseburg, this
morning, where he he notified Coroner
Twitchell. The coroner will not hold
an inquest, as the death was entirely
duo to accidental causes.
Dan Cox was aged about twenty-four
years, and leaves a lonely mother to
mourn his death. He formerly resided
at Cottage Grove.
Young Leonard remained with the
corpse in the mountains. It is thought
that tho remains willbe brought in on
tomorrow's local train. Interment will
bo made nt Wilbur.
