Their prices are right and All Goods are Guaranteed 0 Methodist Episcopal Conference at Los Angeles, California. The reign of hoodlumism in Cor vallis culminated in a bloody shoot ing affray about 1 o'clock Sunday morning, in which Chester Keady, the la-year-old sou or George B. Keady, and James Dunn were :killed and Nightwatch D. A. Osburn was probably fatally wounded, while Sheriff Burnett escaped by a hair's oreacttn from meeting a similar fate. Young Keady has been tho acknowl edged leader of a band of hoodlums that have been responsible for a series or outrageous actions in Corvallisand which have aroused the indignation of that community. Bert Turner, who was with Keady when the shootintr occurred, was arrested as an accessory. The trouble began a few minutes be fore midnight, when some one fired a revolver near Broders' saloon. Officer Osburn, then a block away, hurried to the scene and found Keadv. Turner and others discussing the question of wnetnor or not Keadv could wMd Ren Guier. with whom Keady and other boys had trouble some months nn Osburn advised Keady to go home, and did what he could to pacify mat ters. After parleying awhile Keady and his companions passed to the First National Bark corner, where there was njore trouble. Keady passed out into the street. followed by Osburn. Here Keadv displayed his revolver for the first time, and notified Osburn not to approach, Osburn kept advancing, uigmg iveady meanwhile to do nothing rash. After passins thirty yards or more southward on the west sido of the street in these relative Dosi tions, Keady entered a crowd that had collected near Zierolf's store. Dunn tts among tile lot and he mowl rr i . . . . iveauy 10 give up the gun. Avuauy presented the revolver n,nrl holding the crowd at bay, began to oacK on across the street. Dunn n.nrl usburn emeraed from th Pi pl'mvH Tr. . ..... aeuuy Kept backing until almost directly in front of the postolYice and within four feet of the pavement. Bv this time, Osburn, still endeavoring to pacify Keady, and tellinir him to rlo nothing rash, was within tevi feet of .iveaay. "Don't come any further or I'll fire saiu .eaciy.Dut still Osburn advanced. A report of Keady's revolver followed, and usburn staggered into the arms of Dunn. Osburn was at once sup ported to the hotel and surgeons summoned. After presenting his revolver in a threatening manner to John Vineyard, Keady and Turner passed south on Main street and thence after a detour of several blocks came down College street and stood talking on the side walk, just south of James Taylor's residence. Sheriff Burnett meantime had been sent for, Dunn being one of cue nrst to notify him of the occur rence. Chief of Police Lane was also summoned, and half a dozen men began a search. While Keady and Turner stood talk ing Hermann Breyer approached. Keady levelled his revoiver at him and told him not to come nearer than 10 feet. Breyer made protestations of friendship, however, and was allowed to join the group, lit was while Keady was thus occupied that Sheriff Bur nett arrived. He was accompanied by Dunn. As the officers approached. to close with him, and a shot from Keady's revolver entered his abdomen ine weapon was held so close that Dunn's clothing was set on fire Then Sheriff Burnettflred.and Keady and iiunn fell together, Keady with a snot through Ins face.

Savage had been drinking with another Indian, whoso name is not known, when a quarrel ensued, during which Savage drew a revolver. Wa ehino interfering to prevent him using it, received a bullet through tho heart for his trouble. Details of the origin of the quarrel are lacking, but Wachino's part was merely concili atory, and Savage's act was entirely uncalled for, The murder took place about mid night Saturday, but was not reported to Dr. Kershaw, the Indian Agent, until Sunday morning.

As Savage has tho reputation of b.einj bad man, they are prepared for light. Ho is known to havo the revolver with which he committed tho murder still in his possession. Ho is believed to bo in hiding on a ranch a few miles from the agency, though he may havo taken to the mountains close behind the agency.- The country is rough and wild from that point to the coast. Savago served a term in the State Tenitentiary for robbing Ellis Bros.' store at Grand' Ronde. He is one of the bad characters of the agency, and capable of the most cold-blooded criminal acts.

Shortly after din ner, he heard hisdog barking vicious ly in the timber near the barn, and going out to investigate the cause, found tho dog and a pine marten en gaged in a lively scrap, with tho dog getting decidedly the worst of it. As Mr. Macomber approached the ani mals, the marten became frightened and ran up a tree, where he snapied and growled ferociously until a well aimed rifle shot brought him to the ground. The animal measured 23 in ones from tip to tip.and had a beauti ful coat of fur. Pine martens are be coming scarce in Oregon, and their skins are highly prized by fur dealers.

Nervous Prostration Faint Spells. Dr. Miles' Nervine Saved My Life. There is preat aanger in a run down con dition. Overwork, mental strain, the cares and worries of business and the home, all have a deleterious effect upon the nerves, which in their devitalized condition readily fall prey to the attacks of disease. Aside from the danger there Is no condition at tended by so many disagreeable symptoms; such as loss of appetite, indigestion or nenr ous dyspepsia, headache, tired feeling and loss of ambition together with the agony of sleepless nights spent in tossing restlessly about, only tu rise exhausted in the morning. Dr. Miles Nervine is a true nerve tonic which, by strengthening the nerves, restores health and appetite and brings sweet sleep. 'Tor six years I suffered almost constantly from a complication of troubles which culmi nated in complete nervous prostration. I had no anoetite. I could not sleen. I suffered from indigestion and nervousness. As is so often the case in nervous prostration f fre 'pently had weak, fainting spells. D octors did not help me. They said my blood was very poor, and I know mv face was alwavs very pale. The very first bottle of Dr. Miles' Nervine I took gave me noticeable relief and I felt stron.-er than I had in vears. Mv neighbors in Puyallup, Wash, where I then lived will testify to this. I alio used some of Dr. Miles' Restorative Tonic and Anti Pain fill. I believe the Dr. Miles Remedies saved my life." Mrs. J.
