there is an abundmeu of laud in other locali

Dr. J. R. Nichols, in tho Boston Journnl of

100 pounds of bones iuto small fragments and
pack them iu a tight cask or box w ith 100
pounds of good wood ashes which hive been
previously mixed with 20 pounds of dry
watcr-shekeel lime, and 12 pounds of sal

In two or three weeks the boues will bo soft

The particulars of a murderous shooting af
fray, which occurred at Prinoville, Wasco
county, on Sunday last, between Henry
Vaughn and Charles Long, have been received
here. Tho two parties had been drinking and
gambling during tho fore part of the day and
had quaireled ovor their cards, but were sep
arated by friends. About 2 o'clock in the
afternoon they met in Tell Glazes' saloon.took
a drink together and commenced talking tho
matter over. Neither would acknowledge to
being in tho wrong, ami one word leading to
another the quarrel was renewed, till both
drew their pistols. This action caused a
speedy evacuation of tho Baloon by everybody
else present Tho two combatants shot away
till their pistols were emptied, when their
friends rushed in, nud it was found that both
men wcro seriously, if not fatally, wounded.
Vaughn received a serious wound, the ball
entiling the left breast above tho heart, and
tanging through the left lung; also, a scalp
wound over tho left templo bone. Long was
shot four tunes, one ball pacing through the
left breast and right arm, but not bieaking it;
ono through tho shoulder, breaking tho shoul
der blado under tho point of tho shoulder; one
iu tho forearm, tho ball ranging upward, making
an ugly wuiicil eirzlit or 111110 inches iu length,
and ono in the left side, tho ball stopping near
tho spine. Dig. WhiitaUcr and Gesnor took
tho wounded iiiph in charge and succeeded in
extracting all the balls from Long, but failed
to get the bullets froln Vaughn's body.
Henry Vaughn is well known in sporting cir
cles in this State and tho adjoining Territor
ies. Ho commenced his career in Wasco
couuty, where ho was born by, at the age of
15, riding off a horse belonging to another
man. He and a companion were followed by
SheiilT Mattock, of Umati'la, and thrco dep
uties, and surprised w bile asleep in camp. In
tho afiiay which en'ued his companion was
shot dead and Vaughn fatally woumlcd ono
of the deputies named Hart and also shot
Mattock in the jiw. Ho reciived several
wounds himself, but c-caped. Ho was finally
captiiied and was sentenced t tho neniteu
tiiryfor life. About five years after ho w. is
naiiloiicil out on petition. He has since fol
lowed gambling as a piofession, and lias been
engaged in sev u al despeiato affrays. About
three ears since ho shot and killed 0110 Pitt
Smith at Boise City, but was acquitted. A
little over a year ago ho married at Boise City
the widow of a man named Ruby, who was
killed in tho Ncz Perce outbreak. Sho was
wealthy and since his manimo Vauchn was
well supplied with coin. He spent several
wcek 111 this city a short timo since and is re
ported to have lost and squandered some
$S,000, a well known gambler hcie having
won over 2,000 from him at one sitting.
V.iusbn, w ho is known to his associates as
"Hank Vaughn" or "Bunch Grass," is said to
be a dating fellow, and when in funds free
hearted and generous, but when drinking a
qu urelsomo and b a-a-d man. He appeals to
have met bis match in this encounter, which
from all accounts is likely to TJrove his last.
Tell Glaze, in whoso ssloon the nuarrel oc
curred, will be remembered as a saloon keeper
at Dallas, Polk cuunty, who was implicated
in tho killing of Whitney somo years smco.

Jtulgo Stott delivered his charge to tho
jury in the case of tho Stato against T. V.
Aueltows ostorday morning. The jury was
out about three-quarters of an hour, when
they returned a verdict of " truilty as charged
in tho indictment." Tho indictment vi as for
arson in settiuc; liro to a dwelling, as the
rooms above the store occuiisd by Andrews
wcro occupied by Mr. Hummell as a resi
dence. This fact vv ill add considerably to the
length of the sentence, as the penalty in such
a caso is for not less than ten nor moro than
twenty ye.113. !uildinj:s are often burne.i
wheie it is the gencial impression that they are
eet on fire, but tho crime of aisjii is a eliihcult
one toprovo and convictions for it aio laie.
DisttictAttorncy Caplcs has devoted consid-
rable time to working up this case and is de
serving of much credit for his success 111 se
eming a conviction, as it was tho general
opinion tint as in nearly every similar case
the t'tiilty would escipu punishment. Aison
is a heliums cumo, very p.-opcrly ranked, next
in enormity to murder, ns. anyone guilty of it
not only dustnys property, but takes the
ehatieo of destiojing life as well, and as in
such a case cannot fail to hnvoa good elket

Mr. Caples Ins good reason to congratulate
him-olf that h:s untiring efforts have added
tho security 01 tho hies and property of our
citizens. Tho community is fortunate in pos
sessing so indefatigable an oflicial. w ho has
made his name a terror to ovibdncia. aa is
amply pioved by tlio number of culpiits
who have pleaded guilty rather than take
their chances, with tho boat counsel obtain
