Details of the Death of Mr. Lash . baugh Bear Supposed to Have Caused Tragedy. , Farther particulars have been learned by the Gazette relative to the tragic death near Blodgett. a few days ago, of Fr M. Lashbaugh. The sons of the dead man. G.' H. and C."E. Lashbaugh, ' reside in Corvallis, tbe. ," latter being, the driver of the, Fischer mill wsgon. From the; former pf the .tw the details are given, , of the sudden and, shocking .death oljhe father.. , It seems that in ' searching on horseback for the cdws, the 'eldier ly , gentleman rode , a;. spirited bcrse. . Riding along through the timber be approached a tlarge log,: behind which 4 was the. nest, of a bear or other large, wild animal, and as the animal sprang np the horse reared, .falling over back ward onto the rider. The horse's bead was caught between two yonng vine maples 'and was so wedged in that the animal, appar ently strangled to death, its blackened tongue protrnding from, its mouth when found by tbe searching party. The nest of the bear or other animal was still warm when the searching party reached the spot, showing that after frightening the horse and causing the tragedy, the beast had slipped back again to its abode beside the log, being fright ened away again by the searchers in the early dawn of the next day. One of the terrible features of the accident was the vigil kept by the half distracted wife, wbo paced the floor of ber mountain home through all the weary hours of that fateful night, believing that her husband had met with some mishap, , tearful of leaving to go in search ot help lest he call or rag himself home and she be absent and not ready . to render assistance. No one will ever realize tbe horror of those hours save she who suffered the agony. The funeral of Mr. Lashbaugh was held at the Blodgett cemetery last Tuesday, the services being conducted by Rev. Peoples. Deceased was a native of Mich' igan and was 66 years of age, The suryivois are the widow, two sons, G. H. ano C. K. Lashbaugh of Corvallis, and three daughters, Mrs. Herbert . Hanks, Corvallis; Mrs. Charles Simms, Portland, and Mrs. Charles Palmer of Blod gett. The sympathy of many friends is extended the bereaved. OREGON PIONEER DEAD. Close of Loor, Active, Useful Ca- rctT.t-Judce Win. Vawter Saccuinbs to an Attack of Pneumonia. In the passing of earlypioners, another has recently been called at San Jacinto, California. '- In the spring of 1805 ; (wo ydting men who had crossed. , the plains together, married., sisters at Brownsville, Linn county. ' One was William . Vawter the other Joseph Yates of this city. Each took an active part in 'the early history of Linn county and of Ore gon. Ot the life of tbe former the San Tacinto Register of Dec. 5th, says : Judge Wm. Vawter, whose set -ious illness was announced last week, was claimed by death on Snnday night, about midnight. His sickness lasted only a little more than one week, as he was down town on Saturday Novem ber 23. An old acquaintance and friend of the deceased furnisbef tbe Register. with the following biographical sketch of him: William Vawter was born ii Oldham county, Kentucky, Jul iiy 1831 ; went with Philomel Vawter Crawford and family in 1851, to Oregon. In 1852 there was a great excitement in Portr land, Oregon, and San Francisco about gold in Qneen Charlotte's Island, and in Alaska. A com. paay of 60 was rganized at Tort- land, among whom was Win. Vawter. j They bought a vessel and fitted it out for a six months' trip. .: . . ' From Portland . thej went to Queen Charlotte's island and an chored in Gold Harbor,' aDd pros pected for a time without success. Then they went to the mainland, where they found little gold and the expedition Jailed. The Indians appeared to nave gold in small quaiitities, but rer lused to tell where. : they get it., Wm. .Vawter then went into the r i !JJ: - 3 L' . saw mm ousmess, ana was post master ai Walla Walla, Washing ton, from 1877 to, 88iv ' He, re signed and came to .California on account of his wife's healtli. s He was married in Linn county Oregon, s tannary,.' 29, 855, - to Racbael ' Robinett He came tp San Jacinto 32 years ago and em bark rd in the general mercliaa dise businec. .1. ... .. No history of San jfacinto and Riverside county particularly can be accurate or complete which does hot ascribe an important part ot its progress to the efforts of Judge Wm Vawter. For nearly a quarter o.' a century he was one of the acknowledged leaders in the business and political world. Judge Vawter was a strong re publican and always took an ac tive interest in public affairs. He is survived by his wife and two daughters, . Mrs. Emma J. Varean and Mrs. Ima A. Griffith aDd three sons, Wm. C, Ed. J. and Jesse P. Vawter. A noble life has gone out. The life of one who believed in right and justice ; one to whom no one in trouble ever appealed in vain ; one whose life was sn open book to be read of all, the motto of which, in actions, if not in words was "charity towards all and mal ice towards none;" one who de rived hie chief happiness in life in making others happy. Stilled forever now is the voice. The luster of his eye has departed. The great .heart has ceased to throb its sympathy for those in trouble, and only a pleasant mem oiy is left now of him, whom to know was to love. The funeral took place on Tues day afternoon at 2 30 o'clock from the family residence, and it was the largest ever held in the San Jacinto Valley. All of tbe business houses clos ed from 2 till 4 o'clock, and nearly all tbe population of the town as well as that of the sur rounding country turned out to pay their respects to the memory ot a departed mend. Rev. Spring, of the Methodist church conducted the services, which were very impressive, and Jje delivered an jeloqnent eulogy on the lite ot tbe deceased. . Oregon News Notes. The statement of the National banks of Portland on December 3rd proved that they had ample cash r-more than , the ; most ; en thusiastic had anticipated. The same is true of banks throughout the State. "Eighty chances to win you can't lose" is the slogan ot the Portland Commercial-Club in its final work connected with the $5000 prize contest closing Dec 31st. f eopie in general seem engrossed with the financial con ditions, and their neglect makes tbe chances of those who do com pete even more pronounced.

Theatre patrons will have in creased interest in the remarkable performances now being given' of last season's incomparable sue- cess, "The Hoiy City.'', In se lecting for this .beautiful drama the thrilling narrative of St. John tbe Baptist, the author chose the most dramatic . story ever told, The epoch covering the birth of Christianity . provides scenes of vivid comparison; the arrogant and sensual splendor of the Ro man, shown with the greater spiritual beauty ot the humble followers of the Master, present striking contrasts.

The substantial character of the gath ering was shown when the Chair requested those actually milking' cows commercially to stand 75 per cent of tbe audience rose, and when a vote was asked to show what proportion of these were testing milk with tbe idea of keeping their herds up to the highest standard, at least three fourths oi the milkers rose a sec ond time, a striking evidence ot modern dairy methods.
