Salem, Or.. Nov.' 20. Two pistol shots
" from the darkness' of a clump of brush
near - the Institute for feeble minded
startled Drv F. IS. Smith, superintend
eat, as he was starting for the city In
. an automobile about 8 o'clock: Satur-
day nlgh One bullet pierced his glove
and the. other mi wed entirely. Three
: rapid shots were returned in the dlcec
' tlon of the flash, and the doctor heard
a man' cry. out.- - - :..
Thinking he had killed his assailant
i he hastened to town. wher he got offl.
cers and returned to the scene of the
shootlsg. to find the nistol which he
had shot out bf the man's hand. ' The
v euuet naa struck the cynnaer or ins
; revolver, and shattered" the handle - of
the gun. tjo further trace has been
. Dr. Smith declares the affair a total
mystery. ; The coincidence of his hav-
-'ing m the past three weexs received
four threatening letters' probably bears
some connection. The - nrst tnree let-
; ters1' contained simple threats and abuse,
but the fourth demanded that money be
placed near a sign post on the railroad.
' - These letters may have been written
by an. inmate with a mania or a griev
ance bu t it would have been ' difficult
for the. patient to have got letters
; mailed In' town. .' V'"'V-".-.r'
It la entirely possible, says Dr. Smith,
that - the affair was a simple holdup
and that he failed to hear the command
of the thug. The auto was making a
noise and the path -was. dimmed by the
. inuri on tha hftadllffht. The man who

under charge of inexperienced herders,
were caught in a blinding storm week
before last arid allowed to 'drift half a
mile down the mountain from the reg
ular trall.
After a few Ineffectual efforts to
get them back to the trail, the herders
.left the sheep and walked . 18 miles to
the ranch for help, The following dsy
was stormy and the rescue party failed
to reach the sheep. The Mrd day the
-party reached the iheep at.'; six days'
efforts have prove., Ineffectual. i -
Latest report from the c.mp are that
the sheep are eating wool and that un
less the rescue is effected In a short
time the Ifese will be enormous. '
