Y0NCALLA MARSHAL
KILLS CHARACTER
" " 4
Fives One Shot, Which Proves Fatal
Companions Held on Sus
picion. Roseburg, Or., Nov. 12. Ono of
tho most sensational events to bo re
corded In this section of tho state for
many months past occurred about
12:30 o'clock this morning at Yon
calla, 35 miles north of hero, when
Marshal Lundy, chief of police of
that city, shot and killed ono daring
desperado who was in tho act of
making a break for liberty and cap-
tured two others, presumably pals
of tho dead man.
Marshal Lundy stated that he was
about tho streets as usual during tho
evening, and In making his rounds
noticed these threo men acting as if
they were disposed to cause trouble.
Ho ordered them to leave town at
once. At first they seemed disposed
to obey tho order, but later again
made their appearanco upon tho
streets. This time tho marshal
thought best to take them in and
therefore started In pursuit of tho
trio. Ho overtook them after a short
chase and started for tho City Jail
to keep them out of mischief until
this morning.
When near the jail one of the men
suddenly showed fight and succeeded
in getting away from tho officer. He
ran to tho middle of tho street and
placed his hand upon his hip pocket
as if to draw his gun. Mr. Lundy,
not liking this move, brought forth
his own gun and with ono shot
wounded tho man to such an extent
that ho died a few minutes later.
Tho remains wero taken to tho
City Jail, where they are awaiting
disposition.
Tho two companions of the dead
man will bo held until Sheriff Mc
Clallen can make arrangements to
remove them to this city. When
questioned as to their whereabouts
of lato tho men stated that they
wero on the road looking for a po
sition. They aro hard-looking char
acters and little credence is given
their story, tho officers believing
that they are yegg men traveling
through the country with an idea of
robbing.
Sheriff McClallen was notified of
the occurrence at an early hour this
morning and leaves today for tho
scene. It is quite probable that the
pals of the dead man will be detained
until their records can bo looked up.
Tho townspeople at Yoncalla wero
much excited this morning when
they learned of the tragedy, many
expressing themselves as pleased
with the work of tho officer.
Yoncalla, like other towns
throughout the state, has been over
run of late with hoboes. The local
justice of the peace at Yoncalla was
ordered by Coroner Hammltte to
make an investigation, which he did,
and no blame has been attached to
the officer who shot tho man. Tho
victim has as yet not been identified.
A. H. Eddy has been busy since
coming to town. New cottage de
signs. DRAM BLOOD OF
ALLEGED WITCH
Shocking Case of Superstition That
Occurred Recently in
Poland.
London, Nov. 13. Incredible
though It may seem, the power of
witchcraft still holds sway among
Polish peasants, and those within an
hour's jo.irney of Warsaw and eleven
hours of Et-rlin. Tho following :n-
cldent, worthy of the middle ages, oc
curred at tho village of WIellszew, 'n
tho government of Warsaw. A peas
ant named Jan Zbroh had a grudge
against a 1 eighbor, Jftephlne 7Aoi-
kow, and Cetermined to vent his an-t.t-r
upon ter. Ho took his daughter
Mnrya In 0 l.'.f confidence. One mon.
ing Marvi Oh', no: appear In t'iu
fields as usual. Her father said, !n
answer to '.nqu!i-es, that she was I'.i.
Tho neighbors went to visit the
girl, who told them that while sUe
was milking the cows on the preced
ing evening Josephine had bewitched
her in such a way that she had not
the leasL strength left, and could not
raise from her bed. "But," sin
added, ".' it el that I shall bo we'l
If I drink some of tho witch's
blood."
The news had spread through tho
village like wildfire, and a crowd of
angry peasants now gathered around
tho unhappy Josephine and beat her
till she lost consciousness, and taking
tho blood that ran from her nose
and ears and gavo It to Marya to
drink. Tho girl, as soon as she had
swallowed it, declared that she ,-is
cured, got up, and went to work.
Tho victim, more dead than alive,
sent for the priest, who communicat
ed with tho police. Tho two chlol
offenders have been arrested, but
nono of tho peasants who beat tho
woman can bo persuaded that ho has
not dono tho village a good turn by
punishing tho witch.
