Shooting Affray.
The Salem Statesmen of Suniay, Oct.
20th says. The quiet little town of Leb
anon was thrown into a fever ot excitement
occasioned by a fatal shooting affray which
occurred there about 3 o'clock in the after
noon. The facts as near as we can learn
are about as follows. Last summer two
men named respectively Col ton and Long
had a little difficulty during harvest. Long
threatened to slap Cohen in the face the
first opportunity which presented itself.
Sunday Long met Col ton in the streets of
Lebanon and struck him in the face with a
levolver, whereupon Colton drew his pistol
and shot his agressor, tbe ball entering the
body just below the left nipple. The ball
lodged in the body, producing,as every one.
supposes, a fatal Wound. Long, the wound
ed man, had a quarrelsome disposition and
was a dangerous man when excited. CpJ
ton gave himself up. U- to the time of
the stages leaving, no examination had
been made concerning the wounded man's
condition. Further . particulars given at
the earliest possible date. ;.
Railroad Accident. -Last
Friday a terrible railroad accident
occurred near East Portland which resulted
io the death of a man named George Tra
cy. The engine had left the round house
and movl g down the track at about nine
miles an hour, when a man appeared walk
ing towards tbe approaching train. He
showed no intention of leaving the track
although warned to do so. The engineer,
noticing tliif, endeavored to stop the locos
motive, but was unable to do so in time
to prevent striking tbe man. The man
was struck by the pilot and cruelly man
gled being rolled and crowded twenty
ties before the engine could be checked. He
died about an hour after receiving the Ins
juries. ......
Needles! Needles!
Last Monday night this cry rang out
startling the curiosity of our citizens. A
crowd gathered around a speaker who was
straining his voice with aphunny song. Af
ter he had tortured his growing audience
soineime he proceeded to business. He
sold a package of needles for one dollar.
He had a package of envelopes con, aining
numbers which represented money. If
a man purchased a package of needles and
drew envtlope containing $5 he was paid
this sum. It was observable, however,
that mow 25 cent pieces were drawn than
anything else. Of couee he did not lose;
at anv rate he paid his city license and
confo.-med to the law.
Supposed to be Drowned.
Last week Dr. J. C. Grubbs, a gradu ¬
ate of Willamette Un'veisity, and a forme;
resident ot Dallas, but of late yaars resid
ing in Corvallis, went up the Willamette
river above his late home, for a duck hunt;
not returning, search was made, and his
boat fonnd upset against a snaz : it is
thought tlat the boat must have capsized
and that the Dr. ws drowned. The river
has been dragged.but the body has not been
found. Dr. Grubbs was well and favorably
known throughout the State.

MINING NEWS.
The Jacksonville Sentinel of Oct
18th
contains the following mining news: ' -
The pipe put up at the Tolman mine, on
Middle Creek, Las been taken up and on
last Saturday it was removed to Willis &
Abraham's mine on Applegate. We learn
that ail the mining appaiatus. mcvable,
will be taken from Middle Creek, wh'ch
indicates that work has been permanently
suspended at that place.
About two weeks ago Billy Dorn, a well
known miner, sunk a shaft abaut ten feet
deep in the channel of Elliott creek, where
he siruck the bedrock. He proceeded to
prospect a pan of gravel and soft rock and
got two dollars in heavy gold. Still further
prospecting has established the fact that he
has struck a rich lead which is likely to
prove extensive. Other miners in tue sarre
vicinity are encouraged to prospect for the
the same streak in their claims, with good
reason to expect success.
Sheriff By bee came up from his quartz
ledge on Galice creek last T uesday. One
thousand pounds of ore from this ledge
was recently crushed and twenty dollars in
gold obtains 1. The sulphurets amounted
to $268 per ton and the ledge shows a fine
surface. Work will be commenced next
spring to red ace the ore by the most aprov
ed method, and the best judges of quartz
mines are confident of rich returns,
W. A. Owen and Charles Howard came
over from Applegate last Monday, where
they had bsea with a party of men survey
ing the ditch to bring water into Mgru
del, Owen, Ribinson nd Oo.'s mining
ground. The rain rendered further opera
tions at present anything but agreeable.
Nine and a half miles have been surveyed
and 160 feet fall obtained. The survey
will be completed in a short ; time, now
that the weather Las cleared up
Fine Stock.
Mr. Sam Dement, of Coos county, whom
we mentioned sometime ago as having
gone to the State Fair with the intention
of purchasing some fine stock, returned
last Saturday to this place on, his way to
Coos county. He did not succeed in se
curing all the stock he wanted, but he
brought with him the fiuest two years
old bull and heifer, short-horned Durham,
that were On the fair ground. The bull is
thorough-bred and poetesses the charac
teristics which go to make up a splendid
stock animal. Both of these animals took
the first premium at the State Fair, and
we do not hesitate to say Mr. Dement has
the finest two years old buU in Coos. The
same may be said of the heifer. She has
that benevolent loos; and dish face which
are c'aimud by stock men of experience as
indications unmistakable of superior qual
ities. Hr. Dement is enthusiastic iu his
admiration of fine stock, and in his recent
purchase we cannot do otherwise than
eimmend his judgment and his enterprise
in improving the stock of Coos county.
