A contest between railroad promoters la brewing at Tillamook, where the peo- rhave undertaken to furnish both E. Lytic and W. J. Wlteey the same water frontage and terminal grounds. It la aald Mr. Wllaejr waa first oh the scene, and nearly a year ago secured the promise of Tillamook eltlaene that the Oregon Coaat Eastern railroad should have the terminate. Home months ago tills promise was made good by an agreement with a clmmtttee of eltlaene appointed at a publlo meeting. Subse quently the Pacific Railway A Naviga tion company oame upon the scene. Promising the quickest action In con atruction of a railroad. It waa saanee ful In winning over noma of the influ ential men in the community, and they are rjew out working not only to fur nish the desired terminals and water front but to raise money to buy rights off way for the railroad company through t miles of timber.

The groom, Thomas Thompson, was being married for the second time, hie first wife being a alster of William Thompson, the es caped convict Just before the time fixed for the ceremony William ap peared In the church, and took a aeat In a pew near the altar. A few momenta later the wedding party, consisting of the bride and bride groom and attendanta, proceeded up the aisle. As the bridegroom passed the pew in which his brother-in-law waa sitting the latter, to everybody's horror, drew a revolver, and. presenting It within a few inches of the hapless groom, fired. The wounded man fell Into the anna of hla bride, hie blood coloring her wedding gown and forming a pool on the floor of the church. Al though every effort waa made to save hh life he died the following day. His last words ware words of forgiveness far his murderer. Thompson exhibited the most perfect composure during his trial for murder. Within a year after hla conviction he escaped from the asylum In which he waa confined, and moat exhaustive search disclosed no trace of hla where gbouts. until the past week. It years after the commission of hla crime, he strolled Into the police barracks and surrendered himself. He waa appar ently perfectly sane, and hla only expla nation of his long absence was that he had been In America.
