While on their 125 mile hike from Cottage Grove to Rosehurg via Steam­ boat River, Hugh Currin and Albert Anderson had many experiences that will he remembered for years, one be­ ing a rattle snake bite inflicted on Mr. Anderson. He brought the rattles home with him, there being eight of them. The snake onlv inflicted a mere scratch and no antidote was applied until he reached home five days later, when inflammation had set in. The young men went from here to the Bohemia District, following Steam­ boat River from there to the Umpqua. The entire trip took two weeks. From Roseburg Mr. Currin came home by train while Mr. Anderson shipped the luggage and rode the pack horse back, arriving Tuesday. One morning Anderson took a shot at a bear cub, wounding it, but at this juncture the mother appeared on the scene and Anderson, who only carried a small gun, thought it best to do the disappearing act. A wild cat was also shot at several times, but the big f e ­ line got away. Back in the woods 56 miles from Cot­ tage Grove and 65 miles from Rose- burg, the hikers ran across ‘ ‘ the Dutchman’ s cabin,” the occupant of which gets out $80 or $90 a year in gold and lives contented far from the madding crowd, going to Champion once in a while for supplies. Cruelty to Animals. The extreme cruelty to animals which is being practiced by some residents of Grants Pass is hard to believe. few days ago a fisherman on the river bank hard a puppy whining in distress, and after a short search be tound a little black puppy nailed up in a box and thrown out on the public dump and left to starve. Yesterday a cat was found in the brush on Rogue River avenue. The cat was in a gun­ ny sack with the opening securely wired to prevent the cat’ s escape. A few days ago two kittens were tightly tied in a sack and thrown out near the same place. One of the kittens had been horribly mutilated. Many instances are related by residents o f that section regarding the abandonment of kittens which should have been humanely put out of misery. There is work for a humane officer.— Rogue River Courier. MURDER MYSTERY IS NOT SOLVED Trades Pigs for Bear; Sells Bear for $100 STCJ ^ - bi""y wTmil" thc, I ' *y* r ' SLAYER OF MILDRED GREEN IS S TILL AT LARGE Suspicion Turns From Negro to De­ mented Resident of Eugene.— Rumor Takes Vicious I Turn in Affairs. i r > The murderer o f pretty and innocent Mildren Green o f Eugene has not yet been apprehended. The police are ap­ parently no nearer to a solution than on the morning the horrible crime was discovered. Suspicion seems, however, to have turned from a negro as the murderer to some demented person who is still prowling about the neighborhood. Several unsuccessful attempts have been made to enter other houses, but no trace has been secured o f the guilty person, although he was seen and shot at when he attempted to enter the D. M. Purkerson home. A vicious rumor was current up and down the Valley Sunday that the father o f the girl had been arrested and had confessed. There was not the slight­ est foundation for such a rumor and the father o f the girl is not held under the least suspicion by the authorities. Portland police have been given the description o f a man wanted. He is described as being about five feet four inches tall, about 40 years o f age, with red face and light curly hair, who had been working in Eugene for the Ore­ gon Electric company, and who de­ clared he was going to Portland to cash his pay check. The man is a painter. He has not been apprehended. % '■ißt i ^ * i - i ■ • 1 ” i l STOCK CO MAKES HIT IN THE GROVE Claman’s Aggregation Puts on Three Metropolitan Productions in Cottage Grove.
