An Explanation. .
1 noticed an item in last week's
Piaindealer headed "A Mean Ira posiT
tioii," tbat a certain doctor of this place
had imposed upon the integiity of that
paper. I did give to Mr. Hursh an
item of the accident that befell Miss
Mary Derming of Looking Glass, the
falling from a plum tree and that her
life was despaiied of. The item was
given verbal y "Mr. Hursh I have
an item, 3Iiss Mary Denning of Look
ing Glass this morning fell from a plum
tree and seriously hurt herself, and I
think Fhe ill not live till morning." I
said I had just come fiom Looking
Glass, which was a fact and I was just
going for my mail in a hurry, didn't
stop to explain anything more to Mr.
Hursh." He made up the item him
elf, I gave the item to him based upon
the report given to me by James Gieen
walt who lives wilhin half a mile of
Mr. Dennings where the accident oc
curred. Her brother also told me they
didn't think she could live. Now the
immaginary part of the publication of
this item was wholly on the pat t of the
editor. He thought to give favor by
mentioning the name of the attending
physician, vhich pi oved to 1 errone
ous, and in his great immagination
mentioned me as the attending physi
cian. Moral: ."Courage friend this world is wide
Life is all before thee
Out of darkness comcth light
Pain and thine the Glory.
The Doctor.
Memorial Service
The nien.orial services at this place
for Gen. U. 8. Giant were held last
Saturday under the auspices of the lie
no Post, G. A. K. at two o'clock the
procession foimed at the Grunge hall
and were bd by the 'Yankee Doodle
land playing funeral dirges to the
Presbyterian Church which was soon
filled. "The . selections of sonjjs were
choice and appropriate and the choir
sang with unusind impressiveness. The
fceruion of the llev. Mr. Smick was an
eloquent tribute to the memory of the
dead hero and a "rand enlo v to his
Christian faith aud fortitude. The
owning and closing prayers by Revs.
Webb and. Sharp w.re appropriate
and full of exalted faith and hope.
Many of the hous s in town were dra
ped and bushitfsa'wai entirely suspen
ded. .Thus, is patriotism ever renum
bered and the last s:d tokens of resin ct
jui'd to the honor rf one whose fame
is as eternal as t!ie Union and whose
memory will eer b kept green in the
hearts of a great, prosperous and uni

and had a delightful time. Tom proved

John Bobmson'B Circus.
John Robinson,s circus, the oldest
and best known in existence reached
Roseburg Tuesday morning. Three
mammoth tents were spread immedi
ately and at 10 o'clock the graud street
parade a very pageant of splendor,
took place. For the forty minutes
it was passing a given point it was a con
tinual novelty atter novelty and as the
eye feasted the ear was entertained by
the playing of bands and the Caliope.
At 1 o'clock the afternoon pei formance
took place, the vast amphitheater be
ing filled to its utmost. For three
hours were the people entertained by
tin daring feats of bareback riding,
tbe company possessing three of the
finest and leading specialists in this line
living; the transcendant performances
of the trapeze performers who literally
flew through the air; the amusing and
unsurpassed acting of the troup of ed
ucated dogs, the clown dog being the
cleverest animal in live world, the as
tounding feats of Fitz-William, the
Irish Hercules among other things
catching a 12 pound ball fired from a
cannon; the magnificent and startling
act of the lady bicyclist on a wire high
in the air without counterbalancing
weights. Besides the acting on the
elevated stage of unequalled skaters,
bicvclist3 and unicvclists. During the
er.itre time the audience, at every in
termission were kept in continual laugh
ter by the wit and wisdom of the fa
mous clown, Lolow, who is decidedly
the best who ever appeard lefore
Roseburg audience. Taken all in all
th?s grand combined and mammoth
show must be seen to be appreciated.
Every act as advertised. was faithfully
performed, including the throwing of a
man by Rome's mighty engine, the Cat
apult aud the thrilling headlong leap
for life. Of the museum of living
wonders including as it does, elephants,
lions, tigers, alligators, hyenas, the
only living giraffe in America, sacred
cattle, the three horned bull, tapirs,
yaks, the mammoth horse, whole troups
of monkeys, the blood-sucking vam
pires, antelopes from all nations, bears,
camels, ostriches, the South American
condor, the sloth beir, jaguar, and one
might say the rarest specimens of the
animal kingdom from all clime, too
much cannot be said. It is a most
valuable lesson in Natural History and
is a grand collection made possible only
by money, energy, and years of toil.
Do not fail to see John Robinson's
mammoth circus. It stands at the
head, peerless, unequalled, unrivalled
a monument to over sixty years of toil
and the grandest aggregation on earth.
In conclusion we would desire to state
that the management of the circus was
in able and competent hands. No fa
kirs are allowed with John Robinson's
shows, and all those unpleasant episodes
are avoided. This is a decided improve
ment on the character of the shows
that have hitherto visited Oregon and
was duly appreciated. This is con
trolled in a gentlemanly and business
like manner.

. A SAD AFFAIR.
William Hef&on, James Snyder and Wife
and Child and George Hansan Drowned
in the Columbia Eire.
On Saturday morning Wm. Heffron
accompanied by George Hansen Jas.
Snyder, wife and child undertook to
cross the Columbia river about one-half
mile above the Cascades in a sail-boit.
The wind died down to a calm and as
the occupants bad failed to provide
themselves with oarshaving nothing
but a paddle, the boat drifted down to
the fearful falls and the entire party
was drowned. The boat was found
four miles below the falls but none of
the bodies have been recovered.
Win. Heffron was well known
throughout the entire state, having at
different times "engaged in various pur
suits at the most important points.
For years he has been a resident of
Roseburg where he married Miss Jen
nie Snyder, who is now left among us
with two bright little boys to mourn
the loss of the husband and father.
Wm. Heffron was a man of marked
character, generous and charitable, and
poscessing in a high degree the noble
attribute of standing by his friends.
He had seen much of the world and for
te ne had been fickle with him, smiling
on him only to give a rougher knock.
But through all the time whether of
prospei ity or adversity he was the same
energetic and genial man. He was
born in New York and was 34 years
old. His mother is still living in Lon
don but unfortunately her address is
not known. Every effort will be made
to discover it. .
J as. Snyder was a brother of Mrs.
Heffron, was raised in our town, where
his motherland family now resides.
Last January he moved to the Cascades
and was prospering. He possessed
many friends in this county among
whom he had passed his life and the sad
affair cast a gloom over the entire com
munity. He was married in this place
to Miss Sarah Morris and several years
they had passed together in love and
harmony and hand in hand, clasping
their little daughter they obeyed the
Divine summons and appeared before
he great white throne. He was 29
years old, his wife .22, anf the little
child 4.
George Hansen was not very well

ited it once or twice. In the restless,
seething waters of the dark and gloomy
Columbia they rest out of the help of
humanity tbat would feign pay the last
tributes of respect to their memory by
Christian buriaL But the rushing
waters, the high rocky cliffs, th forests
in native grandeur that surround their
resting j lace and speak with an impres

the power of God anil that the human
soul is born for an eternal life.

Eegle Point, August 10, 1885.
Ed. Review: It becomes my painful
duty as a reporter of the events passing
iu our county to report another list of
accidents. . . A lady named Griffin
while riding in a wagon with her hus
band was thrown out and the fall
broke her-back and otherwise injured
her so that she died in the course of
ten or twelve hours after suffering the
most intense pain. She leaves a hus
band and four little children in desti
tute circumstances, to mourn her loss.
.... Dr. Brown of Brownsborough was
thrown from his carriag near Chavner
bi idge on Rogue river and instantly
killed. ....A lady near PLoonix ws
thrown from a buggy and had her arm
brok; n .... A Miss Waters of Jack: ou
ville had her clothes take fire and al
though her brother saw her and as soon
as possible wrapped her in a blanket,
still she was badly burned. .... And
while I am writing up the mysterious
workings of D. V. I must add that
there is now a vast amount of sickness
in this neighborhood our physician is
kept busy all the time and the reports
from other parts of the county are no
better and now we hear of many cases
of diphtheria in different parts of the
valley We are having very warm
and smoky weather now and un-ess
there is a change I fear the worst has
not come yet.
