Last K-enlng.
It would have been hard to conceive a
more active Ecene than was presented at
the armory yesterday alt'ornoou and last
night. Orders had been issued to the
boys by Governor Lord to come together
and make ready to; leave, and in com
pliance with this demand at least forty
of the soldier lads were on band. Others
volunteered their services, and bv (5
o'clock the number had greatly in
creased.
At 5 :20 Dr. Brosius, of Hood River,
assistant regimental surgeon, arrived,
and shortly afterwards began the exam
inations to ascertain the condition of the
boys physically and otderwise. As yet
li Is report has not been made, and we
cannot in this issuo give the result of
this examination.
Over the door of the armory was the
following inscription :
"REMEMBER THE MAINE" '
Enthusiasm ran high among the mem
bers of the company, as well as among
many who were anxious to enlist, but
are held back by family ties or business
interests. It is evident; however, that
In case of an urgent calljiotiiing will
keep them back, and Qregon will come
to tho front bravely.
The only thing tuay bothered tho boys
was when they would be likely to get
away. When the orders came that they
move to Portland Friday, they were re
ceived with pleasure.

men In Co. G at present :

the early morning train Friday for Port

to rendezvous.
BURGLARS AT WORK AGAIN.
Ihree Renldence Kntered and Burglar
Iced Monday Night.
Three daring burglaries took place in
our city some time Monday nigt or
Tuesday morning.
William MIchell's residence, on Fourth
street, was entered by the side door and
a suit of clothes which he had been
weiring taken, in tho pockolsot whicl.
were a bunch of keys and some small
change. Nothing else was taken. Upon
looking around the premises this morn
ing he found the p.iir of pants which
were stolen somo weeks ago, in the va
cant lot adjoining his residn ;e.
Truman Buttler's residence, on the
same street, was entered during 11.
night nnl his pantaloons lifted, in tho
pocket of which they found his pnr-u
and also his wife's, containing $5. How
ever they were kin 1 onough to leave the
garment on the porch, as well as the
purses, taking the monev.
Tne next place where they attempted
to make a haul wub the residence of
George Miller, near tho Christian
church. Here they made a better find
than at either of the other places, hav
ing secured about $15 in cash.
At Mr. Butler's they seemed to effect
their e ntrance.by means oi a nipper, with
which they caught the end of the key
and turned it.
There undoubtedly are some smooth
burglars in this city, who are perpetrat
ing these robberies, and people should
be very careful about locking their doors
and should not keep any great amount
of money on hand for fear they may be
relieved of it.
BEATEN TO DEATH.
A Itaker County Wuodlinuler Killed
a Kow.
James Reed, a wnod-hanler of Beaver
creek, seven miles south of Baker City,
was standing on a hill talking to W. T.
Russell, a rancher, Thursday, between
6 and 7 P. M; when Oliver and William
Marshall came along in a wood wagon.
The Marehalls stopped and got ou(.of
their wagon, William taking out the
wagon post and dropping it on the
ground. Oliver went up to Reed and
asked : "Is that true that you have been
saying?" Reed said: "You are looking
for trouble. Leave me alone. I don't
want to have anything to do with
you, Oliver." Oliver again asked
Reed whether he had used a certain
expression regarding his wife, and, with
out waiting for a reply, struck at him
twice with a slingshot. Reed dodged
and grebbed Oliver by the shoulder and
pushed him to the ground. While Reed
was standing over Oliver, holding him
down William Marshall picked up the
wagon post, come up behind Reed and
struck him three times on the back of
the head. Reed staggered against the
wagon, holding up his hands, and Will
iam etruck him again. At this juncture,
Russel, who is a one-legged man, inter
fere and stopped further blows. Will
iam Waldo, a 13-year-old boy, who was
an eye witness, with the aid of Russell,
putReed in a wagon and took him home.
He died Saturday at 8 p. m. At the
inquist, Sunday, the coroner's jury re
turned a verdict of unjustifiable killing
against the Marshalls, who were arrested
Friday night. They are now in jail,
charged with murder, awaiting prelim
inary xammation.
