A dispatch from Baker City ' says: Just before 12 o'clock Saturday Carl Carnes, who was shot by Jim Lclghton at Huntington Friday even ing, died from his injuries. This complicates the position In which Jim Lclghton Is placed. Before Carnes died the charge no doubt rest ed on "assault with deadly weapon,' but now that his victim Is dead Carnes will probably have to face the charge of murder. Reports from the scene of the crime state that Leighton had in mind to shoot another man, but met Carnes In a saloon and an old troublo over a solo game was revived. Leighton was hound to shoot someone so he began picking a tiuarrel out of Carnes. The latter was a one-legged man and as he was known In Baker, not at all a quarrelsome fellow. When Leighton had passed the endurance line, how ever, in his remarks to Carnes, his talk was resented and finally Carnes struck Leighton Willi his cane. This seemed vt pica.-e Leighton' and gave him an excuse to opon fire which he did. Four bullets hit Carnes, and but for his rumaWiable constitution his death would have followed in a very short time. He was brought to linker where an operation was periormeu . and soon after this he died. ' ; His statement to officers pl aces j A Statement to the Public. Our $15 suit and overcoat sale this ' season has been the best of any that we have ever had and we sold more suits on the opening days than any other store In Pendleton has ever sold In the same length of time. It has been so good that It has caused some of our competitors to come out with prices that may seem lower to prospective buyers, but we want to say that there is not one store in Peudleton or Umatlla county thnt carries the same high grade mer chandise and we do not consider that by selling cheaper goods for a trifle less Is giving any better bargains. When a store sells such high grade clothing ns Sturm & Mayer, Alfred Benjamin & Co.'s and Society Brand for $15 it Is absolutely the best bar gain that can poss'bly be given. Another thing wo wish tho public to know Is that every suit and over coat in our store Is In this sale, and nothing is reserved or moved from the store. Remember, we are not a credit store, and this sale Is positively cash. r.laiii liel Wins Shoot. E. Blanchet catured Jast week's f'rsf prize at the Indoor Itifln Range, winning In a tie shoot with C.
