A Falsi: IluroiiT. Wednesday
morning abmit 1 o'clock, Mr. f-uhon,
of Powder river, while coming to the
town of North Powder, anil when neat
Mr. Cole's place about w?ven miles
from town, saw a man whom ho pup
posed was in a demented condition,
run across this road in front of him.
He put spurs to his hone and came to
North Powder and reported the case:
Said the man was liari footed, had a
terrible wild appearance, and was run
ning like a streak of lightning, and lie
hud but little doubt it was Willis
Skiff, tho lost man. Dispatches wore
at once sent to this city, and a party
from North Powder immediately
started in pursuit. They repaired to
the place where the wild man wa
last seen, and found a man there,
herding horses, who proved to be the
indiMitica) tcareerow tli.it gave Ncls-on
such a fright, lief aid he camped in
the corner of the fence in order to
keep a watch on the horses, and when
Nelson came along the horsca started
off, and lit ran across the road to get
ahead of them, when Nelson lit out
like the devil was after him. He said
he wanted to converse but the gentle
man didn't give him lime. A medal,
made of food leather, should be award
ed to Nelson.
Sour. Ovkk it. The Baker City peo
pie who worked to hard to defeat the
building of the Pine creek road, now
put in the most of the time lying about
it, with the Sage Brush' ns mouthpiece.
We can aflord to laugh while they
squirm. Every bit of the western trav
el will hereafter pass through Union,
over this route, which is the nearest
and most pleasant road to travel in
summer, and will be the only praeti.
cable one in the winter. When the
road from Huntington is completed,
all the cubtcrn travel will go that way,
and Baker, so far as any benefits to be
derived fiom the vast, mineral region
east of here is concerned, might as
well be situated in the desert of Saha
ra. No amount of talk or mud sling
ing will change this matter in thuleast,
and our Baker City. neighbors had bet
ter cork themselves up and take their
dose with as good a grace as possible.
Lr.G Bkokkn. On Monday last a
man by the name of Lockwood, who
was working for A. B. C'onluy on the
Sand Pidge, met with a very painful
accident. He was unhitching a span
of horses from a wagon when they be
came frightened at something and ran
away, the wagon passing over his
body breaking one of his legs and
crushing it in a fearful manner. Next
evening lie was brought to this cily
and made a county charge. Ho is
now at Boot he's hotel, and under the
care of Dr. Biggers, who has the con
tract for taking care of the county
poor. We understand that he is a
poor man and has a family in the
Willamette valley. Only ft few days
ago he sent them all the money lit
had. This seems to bo a very poor
country for a man to get sick or crip
pled in if he has no money.
Kr.KP Youit Kvk on Him. The edi
tor of the La Grande Gazette proclaims
as follows: "The pen-on bringing w
the largest watermelon this reason
will receive one years' subscription to
the Gazette free." Now, that is the
most barefaced t-chcuits to swindle the
unsuspecting horny-listed ton of toil,
we ever heard tell of. Cronemiller ex
pects to get lifty or sixty melons on
that layout and after eating all the
way through the seat on, will give a
paltry subscription to the man bring
ing the largest niojon. Go to, thou
gourmand !
Ci.ouoh t Duncan's Mink. It has
been reported by the various newspa
pers of this section thut the Clough &
Duncan mine was told a week or two
ago to eastern capitalists. The report
is without foundation. From Mr.
Clias. Duncan, one of the proprietors,
who was in this city a few days ago,
we learn that oertuin parties wore, ne
gotiating for the mine, but it did not
result in a sale. Mr. Duncan was on
his way to Portland to purchase n
rock crusher und car far the mine,
which they are greatly in need of.
