last, two bud men in embryo, who
reside near Ladd canyon, by name
Dyko Mutnford and Dirk Feebler,
oam into town and commenced at
tracting attention to thoimelve-! by
riding at a rapid gait through the
street?. During the p.is year several
persons luivo brun rrriously injured
bv reckless horsemen, and fast lining
Iihh ooon Mrietiy forbidden by our
city ordinances. .Maislial ;ates
cured a warrant for their airodt,
when coining down the strc.-t
fihcrifT Hamilton and reouested
pro
and met
him
to itKfirtt in the arrest. Meanwhile the
bad men had tied their horn's to the
rack near Levy's store, and repaired
to the Kentucky saloon to gin up.
While there home one told them that
the marshal was looking for them, and
they lit out at the back door, ran
down the alley and crossed the street
to their horses. The officers endeavor
ed to intercept them, commanding
them teviral times to stop, to which
no attention wan paid, the young men
mount iug and putting spurn to their
horses. The olhcerH drew their revol
ver and commenced tiring, one ball
striking Pcebler's left arm a few inch
es above the elbow, and fracturing the
bone. They rode out of town, how
over, without anyone knowing that
either of the shot had taken efleot,
and it was not until next morning
that the fact was ascertained. Haniil-
ton fays he wan not trying to hit them, j
and shot in the air. Gates says he
tired very low, his object being to
cripple the hordes and capture the
culprits if possible. Wo understand
that the affair ban engendered tome
bad feeling in the neighborhood of
Pecbler's home, his parents being good
and highly respected people, and that
they .severely censure the officers.
They are certainly wrong in this.
While it is to be regretted that the
young man has fallen in with evil
associates and made to Miller, it is but
the natural consequence of Mich a
course. Law and order must be sus
tained, and young men who conceive
it to be smart to set at defiance the
officers and laws, will eooner or later
come to grief. In this instance the
marshal has, so far as wo havo been
able to learn, the approval of the
community.
It ATI! Kit Ixco.wu.s'iKNT. The rec
ords of Paker county it seems an;
private property, owned by Wisdom it
Holman. It came about in this way:
At the burning of the court house last
Biimmer, the county records were
totally destroyed, and as Wisdom it
Holman had transcripts of them, the
same were adopted by thu county, and
legalized at the special session of the
legislature last, winter. Now Messrs.
W. and II. being on top have things
about their own way, which causes
the Sage Prusli to "vip" in this man
ner: "The county should purchase
the burnt records or rather transcripts
thereof, legalized by the special session
as the records now stand no one can
make an abstract or know how prop
erty stands, except tho owners of
the transcript. Of course it makes
their property valuable but no doubt
they would do the right thing with
the county." Such a slate of affairs
is rather inconvenient, to be sure, but
tho above named gentlemen will
doubtless be content to worry along as
heretofore.

rays that after tho Coroner had issued
his warrant for the a nest of Dr. E. M.
Clements last Wednesday evening at
Huntington, after the inquest, he
turned the papers over to Justice J.
W. Gray, who then took charge of (lie
caso as required by law, and set the
hearing for the preliminary examina
tion of the case for Thursduy morning.
"When the ease was called tip.' Doctor
uppeared with his attorney, Maj. An
derson, and waived an examination,
whereupon Justice (iray placed his
bail at $.1,000, and as the Doctor failed
to give bail, Constable Hannon
brought him to our city yesterday,
and turned him over to 'the Sheriif.

Si-'mikn Death. Mrs. Moa, who
has been living with her daughter,
Jlrs. Willis Skifi" of this city, died sud
denly last Monday morning. She was
u very aged lady, and had not been
well for some time. Monday morning
fho got out of bed und had partly
dressed herself, when she complained
of being sick and lay down again. A
doctor was sent for. but when he ar
rived it was too lato to render axbist
ance, and the died a few minutes
afterward. The immediate cause of
her death was heart disease. The re
mains were taken, Tuesday, to La
Grande for burial attended by a num
ber of friends and relatives, of this
city.

to extinguish them. He succeeded in
saving a portion of his household ef
fects but no provisions. A movement
is on foot, to help Mr. Scott replace
his house us the loss is quite severe on
his family.
t seems from the report that some
of the woulii-bo-Miiart young men of
the valley make a practice of riding
by the residence of a respectable citi
zen of this place, who has cxprcFsed
himself against such conduct, and
out of maliciousness indulging in
war-whoops, such as might be expeo
ted from a NY 7. Perce Indian, but cer
tainly not from any well behaved
young American gentleman. Such
conduct is deserving not only of the
contempt and censure of all respecta
ble people, but of the full extent of the
law, and wo certainly think the young
men would agree with us upon due
reflection. Yours for Truth,
