Can n Fence lit! Torn Down?
The case of the State va. Wm. Watson
for unlawfully tearing down a fence was
continued until Thursday, to enable de
fendant time enough to secure his wit
nesses and gather information relative
to the road involved. The facts are
that the fence in question has been re
peatedly torn down by some party or
parties, which has been the source o"
great annoyance to tho owner thereof,
Mr. J. II. Mosier, who has been com
pelled to hunt stock far into tho moun
tains which escaped from the field. An
interesting point to be decided is as to
whether such fence and road were
legally entitled to exist, and if eo or if
not whether anyone has the right to tear
it down. The case seems to partake
more of a neighborhood quarrel than
any actual criminal intent on the part
of defendant, whose good character
is above reproach.

SAYINGS AND DOINGS.
"I TKi.i. my boy," said n father, "that
I don't ea re' what culling' ho takes up,
but that he does want to bo uble to do
whatover ho undertakes to do better,
if possible, than anybody else."
"Tin: profit of books," says a wiso
man, "is accordiug to tho sensibility
of the reader. Tho profouudest
thought or passion sleeps us iu a mine,

publishes it."
Tiu: secret of keeping young Mr.
Jules Simon declares to bo intellectual
work, and in proof of this theory points
to the fact that the members of tho
French Institute are largely hearty and
healthy octogenarians.
It is said of "Sojer" Flynn that his

MARKET REPORT.
Confidence lining ltmtorcl -- Country
I'roclncr, I'onltry nml Grnln.
TnoitHDAY, September 19th. Busi
ness in the past few days has remained
quiet and not so satisfactory as expected.
There Is, however, a feeling of confi
dence among business men of an early
improvement and activity in trade.
General merchandise quotations are un
changed save in cofTees and rice, which
have experienced an advance recently.
Country produce continues to arrive
freely and prices are steady, with a
downward tendency in eomo kinds.
Fruits, euch as will suffer exporting, are
in fair inquiry at last quotations, ex
cepting peaches, which have declined
and are now quoted at 60 to 75 cents per
box.
The market supply of eggs is eome
what shorter and has an upward ten
dency, although present quotations are
unchanged.
Poultry is in fair demand for export,
and spring chickens are quoted at $2 to
$2.50 per dozen. Old fowls, $3 to $3.50
per dozen. Ducks and geese are out of
the market and no quotations are given.
Turkeys are in fair demand at 10 cents
per pound. Only a few have been
offered at that price.
The wheat market is quite unsettled,
and has a slight tendency to advance
above quotations of today, which are 47
to 48 cents per bushel.
In San Francisco a steady advance on
future deliveries continues, for Decem
ber delivery $1.19, and $1.30) per
cental. The Portland market is slug
gish and comparatively empty, although
some wheat is arriving daily from East
ern Oregon and Washington. The sur-.
plus of America, according to Brad
street, will become exhausted in seven
weeks, if the present export to the
United Kingdom continues unabated.
The great grain centers of the east, in
view of the present condition, are anti
cipating an advance in all cereals on
futures.
A Truly Pioneer Woman.
Mrs. Ezra Warren, accompanied by
her Bon and his wife, visited her sister,
Mrs. Wm. Wigle, and her daughter,
Mrs. Jos Crooks, this week. Mrs. War
ren came to Crook county with her hus
band, now deceased, in 1872, and re
sided here about three years. Her
present home is near Brownsville.
It was our good pleasure to meet and
converse with Mrs. Warren. The old
lady is remarkably intellectual, and an
excellent conversationalist. Her his
tory is no doubt familiar to nearly all
people in Oregon. She is now 57 years
of age. At the age of ten years she was
a member of the mission school at Walla
Walla, and was an eye witness to the
massacre that took place there on the
27th of November, 1847. In this Indian
butchery the great Dr. Whitman fell,
and his brave, heroic wife was also a
victim of the tomahawk. Mrs. Warren,
with 51 others, was taken prisoner, and
they were in captivity three weeks.
They were ransomed by Hudson Bay
Company officers, prominent among
whom wub Cajit. Ogden. After their
rescue they were taken down the Col
umbia river in small open boats in mid
winter, and their sufferings were neces
sarily terrible.
At that time the subject of these re
marks was Mies Spaulding. Her
mother and Mrs. Whitman were the
first white womon to tread upon the soil
of Oregon. These truly pioneer woman
crossed the plains in 1830. Mrs. War
ren is master of the native tongue of the
Nez Perces tribo of Indians. She was
born at Lapwai, Idaho, not far from the
present towti of Lewiston, and she is
now the oldest living white child born
on this side of the Rocky mountains.
