The Jacksonville Sentinel has moved

Arrested for Forgery.
Tbe Eugeue City Guard speaks of a 1
party arrested at that place . for for- j
gery. Two of the parties named are
well known here. The Guard says :
J. A.; Peak was arrested last week
charged with forgiugtwo note, one
on Mr. Geo. Egbert for $250 and an
other on C. W. Young for $300. After
hearing the - testimony, Recorder
Knox ordered the discharge of the de
fendant, as the testimony was uoi
sufficient to hold him. From whit
we can learn the following are the
facts in the case. About two months
ago a Mr. Johnson, who was a,'eiit for
the Little Joker washing machine,'
negotiated the uotes to Mr. H. C.
Humphrey, who refused to ; ad
vance the money on them until
he saw the above named parties. Mr.
Johuson told him that that would be
all right, as be was not Iu urgent need
of the money. Since that time Mr.
Humphrey has seen the parties and
found they had not chrned the pre
tended notes. A During the interim
Mr. Johnson' had gone to Eastern
Oregon and wrote to Mr. Humphrey
to forward the money to bim. The
reason of the arrest of J. A. Peak was
that the notes were drawn in his
favor and the name of ""J. A. Peak "
endorsed on the back of the note?.
Somebody is guilty of this crime and
we hope that the guilty parties will be
speedily brought to justice.
The Eleetioij.
The elections held in Ohio and Iowa
! Tuesday resuiteJ insweeplng
majorities to the Republicans. The
. .... . . . i n
Republicans in Ohio have elected
Foster by at least 20,000 majority, and
also have carried a majority of the
State Legislature, thus ending f bur
man's ho;es of being returned to the
United States Senate. In Iowa the
Republican majority is at least 15,000
over both the Democratic and Green
back tickets. 'Jhe extraordinary re-
Bult In both States Is very pleasing to
Kepublicans, and when you meet one
in the streets you can tell the particu
lars aoe or bis politics by the broad
grin, that illuminates bis countenane.
An Old Pioneer.
One day last week Mr. C. C Mo
Clendon, of Sam's valley, In Jackson

history of the country, and especially
so concerning tbe Indian troubles of
Southern Oregon. Mr. MoCIendon Is

; A little more than usual interest is

a doubt as to the title have but few
loving words for tbe contestant.
The saw mills and coal mines on

regular shipments of lumber and coal,

Accident at Patterson's Mill.
From a witness of the occurrence we
learn the following particulars of what
blight have beeu a fatal accident : It
seems that last Sunday morning Furd
Tipton, in company with James
Tipton and William Lively, was cross
ing the North Umpqua river at the
Trask ford. The river was very high
and run over the wagon box and in
the deepest part tbe wagon was cap
sized. It contained a four-horse loads
of dry goods, which were thrown out
into tbe water. James Tipton caught
hold of the near wheel horse and Furd
grabbed the front wheels and were
drawn to the shore. Lively had to
swim for his life. Our informant
says Lively caught a clock and was
swimming to the shore with It when
he saw floating away what bethought
was a bottle of whisky ; he let drop
the clock and made for the whisky,
but soon found it was only an apple.
Llveley came very near drowning be
fore be got ashore. When the alarm
was raised Wm. Tipton was near by
and. ran down the river about a quar
ter of a mile and went into the river
half way across, and saved a large lot
of things. He also saved a largo dry
goods box and a box of tobacco. The
total loss was about $23.
Horse Thieves Lynched.
The reported lynching of four horse
thieves in Big Valley, Modoc county,
Cal., noticed iu the Jacksonville Sen
tinel two weeks ago, proves to have
been correct. The particulars as near
as we have been able to leara are as
follows: A man named Jim Stow, a
Spaniard, and two other parties, names
unknown, were suspected of horse
stealing and watched by the stock
men of the section where they were
operating. The four meu were finally
found with a baud of about 200 hone.
A party attempted their capture when
Stowe and the Spaniard attempted to
escape aud wer- shot. The others
were then burg to a tree and left sus
pended until some days after tbe
tragedy. Gov. Irwin has offered a
reward of $500 for the apprehension
and conviction of the lynchers
Lake County 3Iurders.
Two murders were recently perpe
trated in Lake county, one on last
Tuesdav week aud another some days
previous. The fl ret was a sheep herder
who was attending a flock near Tule
Lake .for Ned Lamb. He was shot
dead and bis body thrown into a well.
It is supposed that the object of the
murder was to obtain a small sum of
money known to have been in possess
ion of the murdered man. Tbe kill
ing was done at a house belonging to
Jesse D. air. The other man killed
was known as " Uncle Jimmy." He
resided near the State line in Modoc
couuty, Cal., about fifteen miles from
Langeli valley in Lake couuty. He
was found dead in his cabin, bis head
having been split o pen with a hatchet.
Parties are suspected of being tbe per
petrators of the foul deeds and strict
watch is kept on their movements.
A Good Omen.''
Rev. Bell tells of a pleasing inci
dent onuuected with the wedding of
Mr. Jonathan Thomas aud Miss Ad-
die Ulam. The day bad been dark
and gloomy, and the doors of the
house were closed ; but just as the
minister joined " the. hands of the
happy couple, the clouds opened and
there came streaming through one of
the windows of tbe house a bright,
dazzling ray of sunlight, lighting up
in a remarkable way for tbe moment
the forms and features of the bride
and bridegroom. The effect of this
single ray of light, followed by clouds
which covered the sun, was electrical
unon those who witnessed the cerre-
mony; and one gentleman, was so Im
pressed that he could not help ex
claiming aloud, "That is a good
omen."
Odd Fellowship.
According to the report of the Grand
Secretary of the Grand Lodge of L O.
O. F. of tbe United States which met

this country, 60 Grand Lodges, 6975
subordinate Lodges ; 39 Grand En
campments and 1883 Subordinate En
campments. The total number of
affiliating members is stated at 442,281.
GRANT'S ARRIVAL.
' Grant has arrived in Portland, and
there was enthusiastically received by
fifteen thousand Oregouians. The
longest speech the General ever
made was made by him at Astoria,
and, perhaps, as he expresses it, be
there spoke longer because he was
talking to h me folks." As to the
General's speeches since he came to
Oregon, they are models in the way of
good, sensible utterances, free from
party rant, and short enough to make
them acceptable to alL Gen. Lane
was among those with whom Grant
seemed to wish a quiet and friendly
Converse, and his reception of Gen.
Lane was that of one great soldier re
ceiving the respects of another. Let
whatever else be . said of Grant's
visit, it must be told of him that in all
his acts and in all his speeches, be has
shown a desire to leave unspoken any
thing of the late war that would be
offensive to ears of any one, and in
every instance he has expressed the
simple, honest feeling of the patriot
who has served his country, and
glories in the fact that country is
united and its whole people ouce more
brethren. But his receptions have
been a spontaneous outburst of
public :' feeling, and we do not
wonder when be says the honors
showered upon bim by his own
countrymen are dearer to him than all
tendeerd him while away from home.
-Graut will leave Oregon not later
than to day.

O. SIMMONDS, Sole Proprietor. '
Lr.bratory and Office, No. 4 State street, Boston. Sept. 9, 1873 George SimmonJs,
Keq. Sir : The sancple marked "Nabob Whisky." received from Ton. has been ana.
l.T-d with the following results : It is of selected alcobolic strength and free from ad
ded flavoring oils, acids, metals, or any other deleterious substances. Respectfully.
S. DANA HAYES. State Assayerof Massachusetts.
St. Luis, Mo., Sept. 30. 1876 George Simmonds, Esq. I have bn uBing your
Nabob Whisky for some time, and have no hesitation in saying that it is. without
excej tion, the purest article that I have need medicinally, or for family purposes.
To many of my patients who hard been suffering with indigestion and nervous affoo,
tiono, I have prescribed your Nabob Whisky for their use, and I take pleasure ia sar
ing to you the eff.-ct has beeu satisfactory. Piease n od me by express six eases C. 6.
D., and oblige, yours truly. H. C. LOTJDERBACK, M. D.
.. So long as there are ills to which fleeh is hei r to, and the cares and tabors of life breed
dis-ate,8o long will it be necessary to use medicine to counteract the evils produced
and maintain the health of the human family, fiiany kinds of medicine are frequent -ly
uff.-red l the public for one special disease and another, and if the truth were.
known it would doubtlessly be found that in the majority of eases these nostrums
have dooe more harm than good. Indeed seme of the greatest evils of the present day
is the existence ot quack compounds, which contain ingredients inimitable to health,
and tbe greatest care. therefore, should be taken by invalids, ia using many unknown
drngs which cannot be taken with impunitv, no matter what may be alledjjed to the
contraiy. "
Now, experience has shown that Nabob Whisky is one of tbs beet medicinal prepa
rations known, and is highly recommeudd by the Faculty for all cases of nervousness,
weuknees, debility, dyspepsia, indigestion, etc. Its popularity throughout the East
era States baa been greet, and it comes to the Pacific Coast endorsed by tbe eertifi- v
catesof Dr. S. Dana Hayes, State Assayer of Massachusetts; and Dr. H. C. Loader,
back, of Louis, Mo. These certificates are most direct in their statements, aver
ring that the Nabob Whisky is, without exception, the purest article that can be
used either medicinally or for Indigestion and nervous affections, and can be used
with the utroust confidence. The analysis shows that this whisky is of standard al
coholic strength, and free from flavoring oils, acids, metais, or other deleterious sub
stances. Dr. Haves further says that it ia pure, of superior quality, sad suitable lor
dietic and medicinal purposes. Such recommendations are the strongest that can be
furnished, and as there are thousands of letters testifying to the merit! of the whisky
as a family remedy and tonic, no further proof of its excellence need be given.
