THE JURY DISAGREED. Ia tke Cas of The State of Ore go vs. R. O. Loggos the Jury Stood 5 to 1 for Ac--: qnlttaf. , ',' -' Five for aequital, and one for conviction.. There iswhtre the jury stood on the Itst ballot in the case tried before Justice Hoi- gate last Saturday, wherein Dr. R. O. Lesson was bein tried for an alleged assault on John Ingle on the picnic grounds near Philomath, July 4th.. The six men chosen to determine tha guilt or inflocenca of tke defend ant were:- H. W. Hall, Alex Rennie, M. h. Hubler, Getf. Eg- lin, S. Chipman, T.J. Creighton. Attorneys Bryson and J. N. Mc Padden. apptared for the state. while Attorney E. L. Bryan rep resented Dr. Ivoggon. The trial occupied the greater part of Saturday, beingfcalled at 10 a. ra. and going to tha jury about 3 p. ra. The prosecution called but three witnesses,- M. Peister, L. Henkle .and Ed. Allen. The latter, however, when on the stand recalled cer tain material facts which he for got to tell the prosecuting Attor ney when being examined. pre vious to the swearing eat of the warrant, tnd he proved a better j witness for the defense than for the state. " - J. G. Becker, D. Walton, A. J M. Anstia and Marsh Allen tes tified in Dr. Loegaa's behalf, i i The case was a pectliar one, I and the circumstances surround-1 iag it, most unfortunate. The testimony on both sides wis con flicting and in some instances strong prejudice was much in evidence. "Everybody knows Ingle and Loggan are not on good terms," said Mr. Becker, while on the stand, and this seems to have been the keynote to the present difficulty. .- Mr. Ingle testified that he and I5g- gou had nan trouble in tne Woodman lodge aud relations between them had been strained, and Dr. Loggon gave testimony to the sama effect. So far as the difficulty on the Fourth leading up to the alleged assault is con cerned the facts seem to be these: : The Woodmen lodge of Philo math had rented the grove west of Philomath, for the purpose of holding exercises there on the Fourth of July. Dr. . IoggOu was appointed caiet marshal 01 the day by the lodge, and he se lected as his aids Ed and Marsh Allen.'.. A parade was given which completed its march at the picnio grounds and the literary and athletic program was tinder the auspices of the Woodmen. Among those who attended was Mr. John W. Ingle. Some years ago he was expelled lrom the Woodman lodge ef Philomath, but no passwords were taken up at the entrance to the picnio grounds and Mr. Ingle was ad mitted. Early in the morning he had pinned his Woodman badge upon the lapel of his coat, but while bona fide members of the order wore the regulation side out, Mr. Ingle displayed the mourning badge. ,. Aside from this unwonted ' breaon of eti quette his conduct was not of a nature to give offense. Nor was official notice taken of the mis use ef the badge , until Mr. Ingle appeared on the pienie grounds and numerous complaints had been entered. Then Dr. Loggan, in company with his aids, ap proached Mr. Ingle and said "Take that badge off; Urn it around; or leave the grounds." Thut far there is perfect harmony in the testimony ef principals and witnesses. Dr. Leggan sayt he spote these words calmly and delioerately. nr. Ingle tays they were spoken in the tone he uses when he is angry. Witnesses for the defense testifi ed that Mr. -Ingle immediately slapped his hand upon Dr. Log gan' s shoulder. That Dr. Log gan reached up and jerked the badge off of Mf. Ingle's Ooat, at the same time shoving Mr. Ingle back. The- latter again caught Dr. Loggan by the shoulder say ing, " V oa are under arrest sir. I am an officer of the Jaw; Gome ; and go with me." Mr. Ingle and witnesses for the prose cution claim that when first spoken to by Dr. Loggon, - Mr, Ingle waved the doctor back and said, 'Keep i your hands off; go away ana aliens . to your own business." Thereupon Dr.. Log gon jerked tae badge off. Ingle then slapped hit hand upon Leg. gotr s snonider and, being a dep uty shtriff, placed him under ar rest. . - Mr. Ingle charges Dr. Loggofl with assault; when he jerked the badge fly and under the laws of Oregon there is no question that an assault was committed. : . The unfortunate part of the whole thing is that the statutes of this state do not make it an . offense for a man to wear the badge of any order of whfc! he is not a member. The only order pro tected now in this way is the OrauJ Armv of the Republic. It is to.frai.. sgreed that the Woodmen had a ptxfict tight to eject any one from the pienic grounds on the day of their cele bration, and that anv one would uavc uct u inula iy jublillcu in abating the invitation for dis turbance held out by Mr. Ingle, but that in the eye of the law that gentleman had as. good a right to wear a Woodman badge in any shape he saw fit, as he had his hat or coat, and to divest him of it was as much a crime as forcibly to remove any portion of his apparel. Mother and Son. An occasion fraught with grief almost unbearable for the afflict ed ones, was the double funeral which occurred . from "the resi dence of S. N. Wilkins Sunday afternoon. The departed one's were Mrsi Rachel A. Moore and her son, Medford A. Moore, mother and brother of Mrs. Wil kins. Dr. E. J. "Thompson conduct ed the impressive service at the home, while the ceremonies at the grave of Mr. Moore were in charge of the "orders of Work men and Odd Fellows. Dr. Thompson pronounced a few fit ting words at the grave of the mother. A large number of friends attended the services at the the home and reverently followed two hearses" to the Odd Fellows cemetery where the interrment took place. - The death of Medford Moore was the result "of the accidental discharge of a rifle, and the shock due to the sudden death of her son stilled the loving heart of the mother. Her . death occurred at The Dalles, ; Oregon, Friday, July 12th. Rachel A. Moore was an early pioneer of Oregon. She was the daughter of John and Mary Rob inett and was born 'Dec. 1st, 1832, in Boon county, Mo. She crossed the plains in 1851 with her parents who settled in Linn county, Or She was married February 15, . 1852 to John'W. Moore, a pioneer of 1849. After a continuous residence in the Willamette valley for 37 years, in 1886 they moved to Eastern Oregon, settling in Sherman county, where they lived until about two years ago, when on ac count of failing health they re moved to The Dalles. Her hus band and three children, John W. Moore of Shasta county, . Calif., Mrs; S. N. Wilkins of this city, and Mrs. V. C. Brock of Wasco, Ore., survive her. " Mrs. Moore was a loving wife and mother and was a devoted Christian from early womanhood. Medford A. Moore, son of John W. and Rachel A. Moore was bbrn near Lebanon, Ore., Sept. 23, 1854. "In 1873 he went to the Argentine Republic, and after a three years residence full of thrilling incidents similar to the experiences of the early pioneers of the west, returned to Corval- is, Ore., in 1876. - He was united in marriage with Miss Sadie Wilkins, Dec. 27,: 1881, and moved to Prineville, Oregon, in . J882. ; His wife and two children survive him. Mr. Moore was an honored and public spirit ed citizen and had held several positions of trust He was post master of Prineville, Oregon, during President Cleveland's sec ond term and was a most compe tent and obliging officer. At his death he was treasurer of Prine. ville. . He was an active member of Prineville Lodge I. O. O. F., and A; O. TJ. W. and was held in the hisrhest esteem by their members. ' John StaMbttscti. The death of John Stahlbusch occurred early Friday morning at his home oh'tha Island south of this citv. The funeral services wer conducted bv Rev. Mark Noble 'and the interment took place attthe Crystal Lake ceme tery, Saturday alternoon. The deceased was born in jjoi zir. Germany, xviarcn 4, 10x5, and was in his 77th year at the time of death. He arrived with his family in the United States in 1882 ana settled in K.acine, Wit. In 1886 he arrived in Cor vallis and the fellawing year es tablished himself on the Island south ef town where death over took him. Darine the past year or so he has - suffered paralytia strokes, and his death was the result of a stroke. His wife died seme time ago. The surviving child, ren art Mrs. Feuerstein, Mrs. B Woldt,. and ? John and Horman Stahlbuseb, all of whom reside in or near this city. The Mill ace Bridge. There is wide spread dissatisfac tion among farmers living along the road leading to Monroe concerning the bridge just' completed across the mill race south of town. In conversation . with the Gazette man regarding this matter Judge woodward raid yesterday: "The court and' commissioners are not satisfied with th& present form of the bridg. The old bridge was about 160 feet in leHgth. Plans submitted for the new structure de veloped the fact that by swinging the bridge directly across the race and placing the approaches' at a slight angle, the bridge could be shortened 50 Or 60 feet. This plan was adopted in the interest of econ omy. After work had been com menced on the bridge, it was dis covered that if drawn as closa to the fence as originally intended it would obstruct the entrance to the road used by H. F. Fischer across the fields. This and consequent al terations in the plans by the build er gave us quite a different bridge from what was contemplated. We are having earth placed at the ap proaches of the bridge which will correct the difficulty ia a measure, and the next term of court the com missioners will take some action to place the structure in a satisfactory condition." Threshed Rape.- The little 24-iach cylinder threshing machine of the O A O was in use part of last Thursday and Friday. At this time a quantity of rape was threshed. A year ago last June about a yi acres of rape wai - sown at the college for experimental .pur poses. It did well, and during last fall and winter furnished ex cellent pasture. The growth of rape is quite rank and it is eat after the manner of corn, with a knife. The seeds lie one -after another in a small pod that re sembles the pod of mustard. It is said that rape will grow On the most arid soil and that it will thrive on what is known as "white land." At the prices quoted for rape- seed it is esti mated that more than $2oo worth of rape was threshed at the O A C.last week. Here is a matter that is well worth the in vestigation of our farmers. Rape is a good thing if half that is claimed for it is true. Additional Local. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Small went to Newport yesterday for a month's outir.g. Professor and Mrs. J. B.

A false alarm of fire brought the department on a wild goose chase Friday morning, about 11 ocIook. No one seemed to. know where the firs was, but the impression prevail ed that it was looated somewhere in the northern part of town. After dragging the apparatus several blocks in that direction, it was dis covered that the ruins of the Cam eron house, which turned a month or so ago, had caught from sparks from a bonfire. No damage re sulted. ., . . , Postmaster Johnson informs us that hereafter domestic money or ders will bo drawn on all money or der offices on either Canada or Cuba, for which only domestic rates will be charged.
