As stated by the Tunsus sometime

part of the valley will continue this
seasou without abatement, and the
acreage in orchards will lie greatly

another large orchard on tbs Devlin

fifty acres altogether, of peaches and

Burglary Again.
The tailor shop of F. E. Zoellner, of
this place, was entered uy a thief or
thieves last Tuesday night at.d throe
suits of fine clothes taken suits which
had just l>een made to order, and which
the gentlemen ordering them no doubt
expected to wear within a few days.
One suit was for S. B. Galey, ami be
had tried it on ami was well satisfied
with the tit. Tuesday eveniug. Mr.
Ziiellner wanted him to take the suit
home with him at that time, but Mr.
Galey said he was down town, horse
back. ami preferred to leave it till
next morning. One of the suits be
longed to Dave Ralph, or was made
for him. The three were ’ together
worth about $140. The thieves en
tered through a window at the back
of the shop, from which they removed
glass enough to permit them to crawl
through. No arrests yet, but certain
persons are suspected.
The butcher shop of Harris A Mur
phy Bros, was entered the same night,
and a little bit of small change that
had been left in the till was taken.

L .i'ish to-uight, about A* of a mile
from here, at 8 o’cl<x*k. The trihn
was making its regular trip, and just
as it was fairly on the trestle the
whi le tram went'urongb with a ter
rific crash. All the cars except the
Daggage and mail stixxl upright ou
th* track aud were lowered ah ut 1(5
feet, At this time there have been
recoveretl five dead bodies from the
wr* ck. Two of them are those of
engineer MeFadden and fireman

as yet. Il is estimated that t here are
forty or fifty persons who are serious

injuries. Relief trains have arrived,
ami all have lieeu provided for, phy

as sixin as messenger arrived there.
There was uo telegraphic communi

S alem . Or.. Nov. 13. Shortly liefore
8 o lock last night the heavily loaded
Southern Pacific express went down
with the bnig trestle across Lake
Labisb. half a mile north of the Che
mawa Indian school, iimi five miles
nor h of Salem. The engine wasover-
turned and almost half buried in the
mnd. Following this was the tender
of the engine, the mail, baggage and
express cars, twiste«! and broken en
tirely out of shape. Then follow.althe
first class day coach, which was saved
from going over by alighting with the
front eti«l on a pile. 'Ibe e«*ats in this
car were everywhere broken. Then
followed the smoker, lti which the seats
wen* nil broken. Next was the tour
ist sleeper, in which were 31) passen
gers, of whom only tlir«*e were un
injured. Next was a Pullman car with
seventeen passengers, ami only three
of them eecaped without injury. The
next and hiudmost car was the Pull
man sleeper, “Rojoburg,” with fifteen
pas- «•tigers, only four of whom got off
with but slight bruises’. In the smoker

disastrous at the front end.on account
of the mall, express und baggage cars
overt lining. Tiie only (lung that
k«*pt the traiu from burning, and the
li irr.T of the s.tuation thus b-ing vast
ly augmented, was the fact that the
trestle ami the track went down al
most perpeiniicnliirly and the tram
went, down without overturning the
most of the cars.
The niinilxT of wounded will reach,
if it <l«x*s not exce. <1, one hundred, but
of these the greater nnmlier are not
seriously hurt, while about a uozen
are badly hurt.
The list of killed fixits np five. The

standing on the platform between the

It is the opinion of the ehlef engi
neer of the division that the accident
was caused by the derailment of the
engine just as it was passing upon the
trestle. The engine rau along on the
ties for al amt 50 yards, and the ter
rific jar aud strain i-iuiged the whole
limb, red structure to collapse, letting
th«* train fall to the ground some lti
feet I h -I ow . All the cars except the
baggage and mail were left in their
usual position, that is with the wheels
down, but the jar waa so great that
the seats in the principal «lay coacii
were not only torn from their fasten-
lugs but were shattere«! into splinters,
aud the seats iu the other cars were
also nil toru from their fastenings. It
is a wouder that there were uot more
peoph* killed, or that any could have
eecap«*d wit bout serious injuries. A
reporter says that nearly every one ou
