A gentleman by the name of

Mr. Rust, heard a couple of
shots about a week ago, so he
claims, and later saw Rust come
down near his place and wash
his hands at a small stream.
Later in the dav Mr. Sharp saw
Rust drive by his place with a
buggy, going in the direction in
which the shots had been fired.

From what is learned some of
khem had a very narrow escape
from drowning in Yaqfrina bay
while being towed ouabarpe to
Yaquina City. The News gives
the following account of the
affair: -
Last night 25 Chinamsn were
brought up to south beach, from
the Alsea cannery. They ar
rived out on the sand spit about
5 p. in. but had to wait there
until Capt. Simon Lindten came
down with the mail, when he
made fast to his small open

Dr. E. J. Thompson and J. W.

buggy tracks, The buggy had i ahead,
gone along an old road that was
sxldom used and led hina to the
partial remains of a cow. Going
on to Philomath Sharp got into
conversation with some of his
neighbors, and learned from one
that Mrs. Rust had presented his
wife with some beef. From
another that thera was a quarter
of beef
house.
About this time it developed
that a neighbor out there by the
name of A. Bennett, was minus
a cow. A little later Mr. Sham
again went up to the place where
he had discovered that a cow had
been killed, and this time found
the head of the animal. The
head had been thrown into a
pile of brush out of sight.
In talking the matter over
with Mr. Bennett, Mr. Sharp
and the owner of tho missing
cow came to the conclusion that
some of the meat and the hide
might have been brought to Cor
vallis. Pursuant of this idea Mr
Sharp and Mr Bennett's son carrfe
to town Saturday morning, and
by chance, the first place they
inquired was at the meat market
of J. C. Taylor. Mr. Taylor
stated thaft he had purchased a
hide of Mr. Rust, and that tho
skin was out at the slaughter
house. A trip was made out
there and when ho saw the hide,
young Mr. Bennett declared it
an exact fit for the cow his father
had lost. A warrant was issued
as above stated.
and it
the
seems that
most of the Chinamen got on
one side, and when Uhey ran into
a little choppy water the scow
was run under and filled with
water; some of the Ghinamen
went into the bay, while others
crawled, on the launch, but all
were picked up and safely landed
on south beach again. The bag
gage was lost and tha China
men spent the rest of the night
patroling the beach in quest of
their belongings. It is stated
that they had about $Soo worth
of baggage.
School Notes.

Judge Bellinger last week ren
dered an opinion in the case of i
the United States vs. Larkey L
Logan, an Indian of the Siletz j
Indian Reservation, indicted for
assault with intent to kill, upon
another Indian on the rcserva- 1
tion, mention of which was i
made in the Gazette at the
time. The defendant demurred
to the indictment on the grounds
that the facts alleged weve not
sufficient to constitute a crime,
and that the court had no juris
diction of the the crime charged.
In closing his decision, Judge
Bellinger said : "I am of the
opinion that the allotment of
lands to the defendant does not
take the case out of tha jurisdic
tion of this court. The Indians
effected by these allotments are
still dependent communities.
The lands alloted to them coa-
tiuue to be held by the .United
States, in trust for their benefit.
The allottees are still subject to
the regulations provided for the
government of Indian reserva
tions. Notwithstanding tha
mandate of the act of congress
declaring them citizens, they
are still minors in the eye of the
law, incapabla of disposing of
the lands held by them, or even
of leasing them without the con
sent of the reservation agent,
and their dependence is still so
complete that it is a crime to
sell or give them whisky Or oth
er intoxicants."
The complaint failed to set
forth thefact that Logaa is an
Indian, and for this reason Judge
Bellinger quashed the indict
ment. Attorney B. F. Jones, of
Toledo, and Judge M. L,. Pipes,
of Portland, appeared for the
defense.

is seeking safe investment. The
