Chief Joseph wants to be sent liack to hi old reservation and tko his In bo with him. A Viixaixocs Outrage. We are In formed, sa3s a Portland paper, of a very cruel and criminal act which was commit ted near Milwaukee last Monday morning liet ween 8 and 9 o'clock. As the little son of Mr.S.II.Dyer, who lives in the suburbs of the town, was on his way to school and when crossing the creek "just alxjve the town he met a man who wore heavy black whiskers, a long brown overcoat and had l'.is face partially covered by a mask. The lad, who is only twelve years of age, was frightened at the appearance of the man, and started to run. The man pursued the sirnrod Ijov and overtook? him. tied his hands and dragged him about 2U yards in to the timlx r. Here the villain iVgan ty ing the boy to a tree in tho meantime hav ing choked him so that ho was unable to make much of an outcry. However, as the boy was being tied he managed to scieani pretty loudly, and his jierseoutor becoming afraid ierhajs that some one might be in hearing, left him and lied lje fore tho boy was securely tied. The lad by some means loosed himself and ran home, falling insensible from terror and exhaustion at his father's door. His tongue was swollen so that it protruded from his mouth, the lacerations on his Imdy and his general appearance indicated tho sutfer ings, mental and physical, which he had undergone. 1'y use of restoratives, how ever, ho recovered consciousness and was able to give an imperfect description of his tormentor, which is furnished above. What the motive for such a deed was, or by whom committed, the parents of the lad and the eitizen.s of Milwaukie are utterly unable to tell. There is a good deal of just indignation felt in regard to the out rage, and could the villainous perpetrator have been discovered, his treatment would doubtless have been severe, but could hardly bavf been more so than the wretch deserves. Efforts will b3 made to ferret the matter out and bring the guilty dastard to justice. Site for Court IIous-b. Last Tuesday, Mr. S. Huelat'inade out'at deed to tho county for tho four lots south of Mrs. M. M. Charman's residence. Tho considera tion was S2.750. This is one of tho finest sites in the city for a court house, and is conveniently located.

She was an affec tionate wife, a devoted mother, and n hard working, happy tioK-ful erson.
