ANOTHER GOOD CITIZEN GONE.
Albert IIMtlngen Diet of i'neuinunla at
.Shu Franciaco Sunday.
A day or two ago it was our painful
duty to announce the death of one oi
our oldest and most highly respected
citizens, George Rowland. Today a like
duty again falls upon us of writing the
obituary of another of our city's honored
pioneers, Albeit Battiugen, who died at
the residence ol his niece, Mrs. Edward
Duffield, in San Franciso Sunday,
MarrhJfoh
Mr. Bettingen was born iu Luxem
bourg, Germany, on March 1, 1827, go
that he was 71 years and 27 days old.
When 24 years old he married Karline
Zinnen, and immediately alter his mar
riage he nnd his youcg bride came to
New York City, where he went into
business and remained several years.
Afterwaids they moved to Chicago, then
to San Francisco, and eventually, about
thirty-eight years ago, they arrived in
thiB city. Since that time The Dalles
has been their home.
For a number of years Mr. Bettingen
was engaged in ti.e hardware butduesp,
and by his upright and honest dealing
lie won in a n v friends and patrons.
Seven years ago he eold out his business
to Maier & Benton and settled down to
the enjoyment of his old aye. This en
joymeut was thort-livtd, however, for
ubout four years ago his faithful wile
was taken from him by death.
A few weeks ago he went on a visit
to California, and while iu Los Angeles
caught a severe cold. He wtnt to Sun
Francisco, and on Tuesday, the 22 A, his
cold turned Into pneumonia, und the
best medical practitioners of that city
were culled to his aid; but their united
efforts were of no avail, and three days
after he was taken tick his physicians
gave up hope of hie recovery. Until tho
last moment everything that friends
could do was done, but iu spite of all he

death came to his rcleiuc.
Besides two brothers, Charles and
Anton, of St. Paul, Minn., the deceased
leaves three daughters, Mrs, Matilda
Baldwin, Mr.9. J. P. Mclnerny and
Rosle Bettingen, who is at present in
the convent, at Ashland, and ono eon,
Albert Betthueu, Jr., of tills city.
His son, Albert, is at present in San
Francisco, and will have the remains

they will leave FrUco totno-row even

day evening. The grandson of the de
ceased, Bertie Baldwin, who ie at pres
ent at Mt. Angel college, will join litem
at Woodburn und be present at tho fun
eral, which will probably tako pluce
Friday.
Mr. Bettingen was a life-long member
of the Catholic church, ami beside being
a faithful christian and charitable man,
he was a good husband and father, and
it is Indeed sad to see such men taken
from our midst. He was an exception

one who saw him leave on a pleasure
trip a few weeks ago would have little
thought that death would claim him and

JUMPED TO HIS DEATH.
An Unknown Man Killed by the l'aiaen-get-
Train Last Night.
Last night, some time after the east
bound passenger train had arrived, a
man who gave his name as Edward Iin
non informed the night cierk ut the
Umatilla Houee that a man hud heen
killed on the west side of Mill croek by
the night train. Nightwatchman Wiley
immediately went down and found a
person about 45 years of age lying dead,
with a terrible gash in the top of his
head. His remains were brought to
Crandall & Burget's undertaking rooms,
and it was found out at the inquest from
Theodore Bennett and Edward Lennon,
two men who were riding on the blind
baggage witli the deceased, that he got
on at Hood River, and from his actions
he appeared to be not of sound mind.
When tho train whistled for Tho D.tllcs
he opened the door of the vestibule arid
was looking out, and when his compan
ions looked again ho had either jumped
or fallen from tho train. From the ap
pearance of his injuries he must have
struck his head on a sharp rock, which
caused death instantly.
Nothing wc.b found on Ills person that
would lend to his identity. When lie
hoarded the train he told Bennett, one
of his companion?, that ho was from
California: more than this could not bo
learned. The following iu the report of
the coroner's jury :
Wo tho jury empaneled by tho coro
ner, W. 11. Butts, to inquire into the
cauee of the death of an unknown man,
whose body is now beforo us, find from
the evidence produced, as follows :
That the deceased, whose name is un
known to us, came to his death at or
about 11 :40 by jumping or falling off t ho
overland passenger train, close to Tim
Dalles, Oregrn; that he was probably
under some mental aberration, and that
his description is as follows: About 40
years of ago, dark complexioneil, dark
moustache, about tix feet in height, nnd
his weight about 180 pounds; a dark
suit of clothe", pretty well worn ; black
J. B. Stetson hat, and u dark overcoat,
daik wooltn iloves' and a heavy woolen
shiit, blue socks, lace shoes. From the
evidonce wo find that ho camo to hla
death through his own act, and that no
fault or blame attitudes to anyone.
