Not Scicidal. By request we publish
the following, which appeared in the Ore-
goniau of the 21st : "We learn from friends
.of the late John Davis Crawford, of Clack
amas county, who was found dead 111 his
orchard on the 4Ui inst., that there was
not the slightest ground for the supposi
tion that the deceased came to his death
by any suicidal intent. 111s latiuiy was
residing in this city, and he had gone to
his place near Butleville for the purpose
of bringing back a cow, some chickens
and other articles. On the morning of his
death, having tied the cow conveniently
to the landing, and placed the chickens 11
a box near the same place, he was waitim
for the steamboat to come along and take
them all to Portland. While waiting he
said he would go round the tield with his
gun and look tor so e bints, knowini
that he could easily reach the boat after
hearing the whistle. After some time
elapsed the whistle blew, and immediately
alter the report ot a gun was heard. Isotli
ing was thought of all this, and no imeasi
ness felt until lie failed to return 111 tune
for the boat. Search was then made, but
not until the next evening was the liody
found. There was no physicrin to exai
ine the range ot the hall; but all the cir
cumstances s'Cin to indicate that the dc
ceased on hearing the whistle of the boat
started suddenly to return, when, by some
accident, the gun was discharged, sending
the contents into his side and thence
through the heart, causing instant death.
It gives great pain to his surviving friends
that reports are in circulation that the de
ceased came to his death otherwise than
bv accident."
A Nice Uncle. From the Bee of Mon
day we clip the following account of the
trials of a young man from t his county
while on his wedding tour: "About noon
yesterday, a man excited and hat less, and
with a snFall gash in his forehead, pa-setl
down First street asking the way to the
police station of almost every man lie met.
His appearance was wilt in the extreme,
and by the time he arrived at the jail, a
crowd of nearly two hundred p rsons were
following him. According to his story he
hat! just come from Clackamas countv
with his wife of a day or two to visit an
uncle of Ivr's, who resides in this city.
Yesterday afternoon the uncle got drunk,
and without anv provocation proc eded to
"put a head on" his iiew-m:ule relative. A
police otlicer went with hiiti to the house,
but the door was locked, and their appli
cation for admittance did not meet with
favor from the occupants. The otlicer had
no right to 'storm the castle,' and con
cluded to let the bridegroom engineer his
own family rows."
Captured. Andy Long, who was in
dicted by the last grand jury for larceny,
ommitted in Cascade precinct, and who
eft for parts unknown before the officers
f the law got their hands on him, was
arrested near Koseburg last Monday by
Sherilf Apperson. The sheriff lias been oh
the look out tor Andy tor some time past,
and -last week he learned of his being on a
ranch near Koseburg, and he left on the
rain Monday morning to make the arrest.
The sheriff, accompanied by the deputy
slieritl'of Douglas county, found the mail
Monday night sleeping in a hay stack
nhout ten miles from Koseburg. Thev
iptured him without any difficulty, hut
shortly after making his arrest he tried to
make his escape, aim gave tne otneers a
ivelv race for about half a mile before
thev overhauled him. He was brought
lown on the train Tuesday afternoon and
occupies quarters in the county jail.
Notorious. An Albany exchange gives
a recent inmate ot our tail the following
recommend : "Andy Dwyer, a hotel waiter
who worked several ir onths in this citv.
has come to grief. One day last week he
stole ins room-m-Ue s clothes in Oregon
City, and the Recorder sent him to jail for
twelve days. When he stopped in this
citv he was a nice voung man: wore a
patent shirt front, paste diamond breast
pin, and was n object of considerable
attention to the night watchman and
marshal. He would make a ri rat-class
brick maker, and we think it very likely
he will learn that trade j-et at the State's
exjiense."
Fish Propagation Movements. Prof.
Stone, U. S. Fish Commissioner, is busily
engaged in getting things ready to com
mence operations in the propagation of
salmon tor the Columbia river. The orig
inal plan of building a dam across Clear
creek and running the water through a
flume to the breeding house lias been
abandoned on a count of loose gravel in
the creek and the lateness of the season,
and it is now proposed to have a water
wheel and an elevator to bring the water
for breeding purposes from the Clacka
mas. Aliout twenty-five workmen were
discharged last Monday on account of the
change in plans. The Ham will be placed
in Clear creek next vear.
Wavkrlt Excursion. The Waverly
excursion to this city last Thursday even
ing was a pleasant affair, and was highly
enjoved by the visitors from Portland and
the young people of this citv. The excur
sionists arrived here aliout half ast nine
o'clock and immediately wended their
way to Pope's HU. where Prof. Brav fur
nished music for the devotees of Terpsi-VV?-
1:n,-n was kept up until aliout
12 o clock, after which the wants of the
hungry were supplied on board the City
or Salem, and then thev steamed away for
home, all seeming well pleased with the
trip.
Further Particulars. The Bee of
last Monday has the following concerning
the drowning or Jacob Toner, on the 12th
inst.: "Two vounc mon n- r.,l A.,l.n
rwere out sailing at the time the Ohio nass-
ed.anrt soon after heard cries for help
coming from almnt midwav the river The'
cries came from a person swimming in the
river, who seemed to be making for the
eastern shore. He soon turned and swam
toward the water works, but sank before
the boys could reach him."

A Ketult of Obstructed Digestion.
Among the hurtful consequences of obstruct- t
ed digestion, is the Impoverishment of the
blood, and since a detertatlve condition of the
vital fluid not only produces dangerous organic
weakness, but. according to the best medical
authorities, sometimes causes asphyxia, it is
apparent that to improve the quality of the
blood by promoting digestion and assimila
tion, is a wise, precaution. Hostetter's Stom
ach Bitters is precisely the remedy for ibis
purpose, since it stimulates the gastric Juices,
conquers those bilious and evacuative irregu
larities which interfere with the digestive pro
cesses, promotes assimilation of the food by
the blood, and purifies as well as enriches it.
The signs of improvement in health in conse
quence of using the Bitters are speedily ap
parent in an accession of vigor, a gain in
bodily substance, and a regular and active
performance of every physical function.

"I have been troubled from my boyhood
with chronic or hereditary lung complaint.
Some years since, early in the winter, I took
cold, which as usual settled into a severe
cough, which continued to increase as the
season advanced, although I made use of all
the cough remedies I had knowledge of. My
family physician also prescribed for me, hut
I experienced no relief. During all this time
I was gradually running down, losing flesh
and strength, until my friends as well as my
self, became very much alarmed, thinking I
should waste away in consumption. While
iu Hoston. during the spring following, I was
induced to try Wistar's Halsam ok Wild
