one of tlie Knight Templars .who visited the
coast to take part in the triennial conclave,
visited Roseburg on his tour of inspection

Mrs. William Weekly of Gravely ford,
Coos county, formerly a resident of Ilapjy
valley, Douglas county, a few days ago re
ceived a serious injury by one of her grand
children pulling1 over a gun which had been
left standing in the corner of the room. The

the froat portion of her foot, cutting away
the toes, which necessitated the amputation
of a portion of her foot.
The stajre from Roseburg to Coos bay on

lie was a youth frem the country. More
than 20 summars had fanned his manly brow,
lie passed along the center of Maia street
with an anxious and downcast look, as if in
search of something. We made bold to in--juire
what he was looking for. lie replied:
"I lo3t my wheel, and can't go home." e
trust the young man found his tap aud
reached home in safety. Young men should
not drive too fast with a " dead axe " on a
rough road.
Will Q. Crown, Superintendent of the
Nitkle mine, near Riddle in this county, has
just returned from San Francisco, where he
ha3 had a quantity of the ore smelted and
reduced. lie exhibited to us a bar of the
metal, which is entirely pure and free from
any and alt conglomerates. The yield was
fully up to what was expected and the free
dom of oro from other metals render it more
easily reduced than the ore from most other
mines. The numerous uses to which this
metal is being put and the largo quantity of
ore at tho mine, make it one of the richest
mines on the Pacific coast.
Robert Leadbetter, who was indicted at
the May term of court for the larceny of a

Purdom in Portland and brought to Roso

is looking well. ,IIo has been engaged as
engineer on one of the river steamers since
he left Roseburg. It would have been fully
as well for all the parties concerned and a
gr at deal less expeusive to the county, to
have allowed him to continue at his employ
ment. A good part of the money put up for
his bail, which was forfaited, Was raised by
tho owner of tho stolen property, and per

A Bear Fidit
Friday of last week John Dixon dis
covered the track of a largo bear that
had been preying upon the sheep in
tho Door Creek settlement for some
time. James Short and Trn Hinkle
collected a lot of do3 and crave chase
to his bearshp, which they 'continued !
until late at night. The next morning
they renewed the chase, and late in the
lay on Saturday brought the tnons-.ter
to bey in a clump of young firs some
live miles distant from where ho was
first started. As Bruin was making
sad havoc with the dog, Mr. Short
rushad into the thicket and joined iu
the fight, and after firing many .shots
into its body succeeded in killing it.
It proved to be a large sized cinnamon
bear, weighing over five hundred
pounds. In the flight three of the
dogs got badiy hurt. Mr. Short exhib
ited some of the monster's claws as a
trophy of t lie chase which are danger
ous looking weapons.
Soldiers Mutixt. Hermosillo ad
vices of a recent date say: The soldiers
stationed at Urez, 45 miles northeast
or Jlcrraosillo, mutinied on tha 8th in
stant, killing tho captain and first lieu
tenant. Tha soldiers left for the
mountains, taking with them arms,
ammunition and provisions. Tho num
ber of soldiers is said to vary from 300
to 1 180. General Topeto left here last
night with 200 cavalry. Tho federal
officers know but little, and are not
willing to give information.
Died. A. J. Moody died Saturday
tho 11th day of August, 1S83, at
Florence, near the raouth of tho Sius
law, in Lane county; Tho deceased
was formerly a citizen of Coos and was
for one or two terms Sheriff of that
county. Ho was ono cf the first set
tlers on the lower Siuslaw and for some
years has been merchandising at Flor
ence. He was the nostmaster and only
merchant in that new settlement and
his loss will be severely felt by that
community.
Good Voh Game, Rough on Hunt
er. Our esteemed friend, than whom
none more urbane, George W. Jones
of mineral water fame, is a remarkab'c
nitnrod. Armed with his beautiful
$S0 gun and with teeth sharpened for
grouse and other delicious game, he
sallied forth recently in search thereof.
There wa3 murder in his eye, elasticity
in his step aud determination in his
mind. He went; he saw a large flock
of fine grouse and lo! he found ho vas
minus ammunition. Imagine how he
gazed upon that gun just as a prison
er does upon the rail he has been com
pelled to carry. Friend Conn (the
athlete) suggests the gun was only a
blind and that Jones only intended to
entice the birds to his famous spring,
and there bewitch them. May be.

A reading room Las leeri agitating
the mintU of some of the citizens of
Roseburg for some tiiLe. Last Sabbath
evening arrangments were completed
by which our people of 4t Irs town may
soon have access to a gootl selection of
papers and magazines ard we hope a
good collection of books. It depends
upon every citizen ot this town to help
forward this movement, for if you
would have your children seek" for pure

In eastern towns, where its inhabi
tants, (with few exceptions) wort in
mills, you find the people intelligent
and industrious eagerly grasping ev
ery opportunity for self improvement.
In such towns libraries and art galleries
are the chief attractions. Why cannot
the people of lloseburg imitate eastern
towns. in this respect! Some of our
best and 'wisest minds have labored
with hands and mind-and at last won
the prize. It has been said of all the
blessings it has pleased Providence to
allow us to cultivate, there is not one
which breathes a purer fragrance, or
bears a heavenlier aspect than educa
tion. It is a companion which no
mistortuno can depress, no crime de
stroy, no enemy alienate: at homo a
friend, abroad an introduction; in soli
tude a solace, in society an ornament;
it chastens vice, it guides virtue; it gives
at once a graco and government to
genius.
Wheat Yield. Tho encouraging
news comes from all parts of the county
that tho yield of tho wheat crop is
much better than was anticipated.
In nearly all part3 ef the county tho
crop is better than it was last year, and
in many places it is a full average
crop for an ordinary season. Had it
not been for last winters freeze this
would have beu an exceptionally
good year for tha wheat crop, not with
standing the l.nig dry spell.
