HASTINGS GETS
BEST OF BANDIT
John Hastings of Kahlotus, Wash
ington, who arrived at the home of
his parents in this city Thursday
was one of the victims of the hold
up which occurred near Roseburg
last Wednesday night and which was
conducted by a lone highwayman.
As the stage was ascending a steep
hill it was suddenly halted by the
bandit who stepped from behind
stump at the roadside, revolver in
band. He commanded the five male
passengers and the stage driver to
line up by the roadside with their
backs towards him while he .went
through their pockets. Harry Mc-
Chesney also of Kahlotus, was with
Mr. Hastings and "enjoyed" the sen
sation of being relieved of all his
wherewith, and an automatic revolv
er. Mr. Hastings showed unusual
tact in the extremity, cachelng away
$60 among the cushions of the stage,
however, giving up a solitary hog
dollar for his trouble to the bandit.
Is this all the money you have?"
qurled the bandit "My partner has
the swag," responded Mr. Hastings,
'and . you have already grafted my
part of It."
Mr. Hastings considers that he got

enjoyed many good laughs over it

The hop market at Independence
seems to be much stronger than any
where else. C. L. Fitchard of this
place has bought 220 bales of Walk
er Bros, at better than 10 cents and
has this week bought 250 bales from
W. W. Percival and 400 bales from
R. O. Brady at better than ten
Portland buyers and Klaber, Wolf &
Neiter claim to be paying top mar
ket price, but according to- the above
they are from 2c to 3c under the
market. Mr. Fitchard has two more
large deals on which he expects to
close this week at better than 10c.
He says: "Anybody who has choice
hops should come to Independence
and get the market price. The mar
ket on choice hops will go to 15c or
better, as there are very few choice
hops In the country."
