W:, was iu town Wednesday making further investi gation relative to the deatli of John Murphy which occurred at the home of his parents October 12th lat. Jooii was ju.st pat 20 years of age and died quite audd'iily of uiyeUtiw Which is inrl tmiuatlon of Ihn apinal cord. The disea-u is unite nre be- ing caused by a sudden blow, ex treme exposure or Out ela-cls of some chronic ailment. The testlmouy was tn the effect that none of these i-auses induced the attack. The death le ing so soon after his friends io Port land had seen him in perfect health, only live diys. that careful inquiry was et on foot to discover if be had been criminally assaulted on his way home. He was sick only four days. Drs. Link later and Tamelslo were ti is physicians. They found no hurt nor chronic ailment and but alight exiiosure. but It seems to have been Hid primary; cause of the inflamma tion. Mr. Murphy started afoot from ilillsbnro station and walked eight miles when he got a ridu the balauc of the way, two miles, it is thought that he became warm while walking and ecoled too fast while riding. This was about the 8th of Oi-tolier. He was taken sick the same night or eirly the next day and died on the 12th, four days later. John was a' member of Upchurch lodge A. O. U. W. of Portland having Joined the order May 21, 1902. Ho had paid but $3.00 as assessments. His moth er will in a few days receive $1000, the full amount named iu his bene ficiary certificate. Grand Medical Examiner Walke is satisfied tht death resulted from one of those ob scure causes which could not be guard ed against. A distressing accident befell little Uichard, eldest sun of L. M. Hoyt. Richard is about -8 years old and likes to go with his grand father to the woods. Last Saturday he was down at the farm about one and a half miles from town where Mr. W. It, Hoyt was cutting underbrush. Uicherd stood on a log while Ills grandfather cut a small vine maple The little tree had fallen, but was yet attached to tne stump, unn stroke of the axe was required to cut the last sliver but' just as the stroke was delivering the boy slipped from the log and fell before the bright keen axe receiving the blow just below the kueeof the rieht leg. Tho outer bone of the leg was cut oil together with two arteries. Mr. Hoyt is a practic al man and when he saw the blood spurts he knew what to do. He li ghted the Mini) above tho knee ami started home, where in duo time he arrived. Hurgeona Tameisie and Woods wero called and the wound closed. There is one artery In the front leg that was not . injured, and on this depends the hop-1 of saving tl.o leg. At date circulation lias tieen maintained and Improved so that the surgeons arenot an" nervous as at first. There is yet danger of losing the leg, yet as the days pass with favorable syiuto.ns final recov ery Is looked lor-witu moro certainty. The P. U. fool ball team went to Eugi-nn last Thursday to play foot ball with the Cuiversity of Oregon team. Tho score was 7(1 to 0 against our boys. Looks at though they did not piny much. There is something wrong at Forest Grove. Tho foot Imlfiocn were selected from the same citizenship as the U. of O. men, aud physically ust as perfect, yet they coiiim homo defeat -d. So they did from Walla Wall and Idaho. There ought to bo a different recoid. It is due to the school they lepresent? A change, of athletic trainers ought to Im made. Equal to la-gin with, il niut Im the training lhat keeps the teams from being equal ut the end. O. A- C f;st ball team has finally got Albany College team to arrange a game for Saturday, IVc. Cth. The struggle Is on Albany grounds. Ad mission free, .each team to pay Its own expenses. It is a llttlo to be wondered at that Albany selected that proposition. O. A. C. submitted Ave schemes. The one selected leads to the belief that Albany nsen are harboring a bad spirit, and In the coming contest will nothesit.de about nffrtirinir In foul play, sometimes called slugging. .

One evening during the rain storm of last week a company of boys aged from ten to thirteen were at the cor ner of Main and Third streets howl ing and dancing like a bunch of Co manche Indians. The Isdki'KSOENT man enquired the reason of the hilar ty. "Put your hand on that iron ratchet wheel." He did so, and then himself commenced dancing.

The f-ueral ceienionioa occurad ou Sunday conducted by the F.istera Stur lodge of which order the deceased was a member. Mrs. Adkins was attacked with tuborculosis two or three years ago and something over a year ago went into the dry climate east of the Cascades hoping that the dry pine air would be beneficial. She had a welcome homo In several cities with her sous. Her last place was with ber son Ernest at Trail. B. C. Some months ago she told ber husband that If she found that she could not get welt she wanted to come home to die. Last week she tnougnt u wouiu be nice to be at home again and, though weak, determined to start. Earnest Stewart aud his wife were to come with her to Spokane where Frank and wife were to meet her and occompauy her to Portland. lU-r husband started up the road to meet them but at Portland the dreaded message was received. At Spokane Frank Stewart met his mother aud brother in the Puliiuau car. She re cognized him also her brother who was there. This meeting excited cir culation, and was bad for cardiac trouble which had been a couiplica tlon. Her sons big strong fellows that they are, tenderly carried her to their waiting carrirge and drove to the hotel. On the way one said to the other, "The exertion is too much for mother, she has fainted," "Let us then get to the room aa soon as possible and apply restoratives." But it was clay that was lain on the couch. Somewhere between the sta tion and the hotel, the spirit of good Mrs. Adkins went to her maker. There was present at the funeral Mrs. Adkins' father Geo. W. Miller, and her brothers Judge Miller of the Sup perior Court, Samuel and Wm. Miller of Vancouver, Washington and her sons with their families, Earnest Stewart aud wife, Frank and wife also Jesse.

During this service, matters of j tho greatest imjiortance to the city have been presented for consideration. The first was the purchase of the LiK'ht and Water plant, and afterward the formulating rules and regulations for its operation.

The large auditory was packed with friends who had assembled to show their love and esteem for the deceas ed. The remains were deposited In Masonic Cemetery. Work at the North Yamhill coal mine was rewarded last week by strikibg a 14 inch vein of solid coal at the end of the tunnel that is 700 feet frem the outlet, though double that lemrth and more has been run for the sake of ventilation. The per peodicular distance to the surface is about 400 feet. With this discovery the stocfc went up nearly 400 per cent, and the sale of development shares was declared off. The mine has been worked for about two years, and dur ing that time coal of an encouraging character was taken out of a stratifi cation constantly increasing in thick ness. but the vein unearthed Thurs day is of a distinctly purer kind and presents itself as a specific part of the formation which, If it pins out as ex pected, will provide the quantity and quality of coal for which the opera tors have been looking the past year. Some weeks ago the dump at the mouth of the tunnel caught fire and, as no great damage Is doing, it Is al lowed to burn.

' The machinery for Dr. Tamelsie's condcused milk plant has been re ceived at the Hitlsboro station and will be transferred to the farm at once. Tho skilled mechanic and op erator is to arrive this week. The work of putting the macblney In place will be rushed. Word comes from Mr. Gray don of the Portland-Hillsboro Electric Mo tor railroad to the effect that the syn dicate that Is to invest money in the project are exceedingly well pleased with the general conditions, and are crowding the engineers forward with all possible speed. They are anxious for work to begin to the extent of being Impatient. The delay is due to the engineering problems which are intricate and must be solved with great exactness. This has taken time, at least a mouth more than was at first estimated. However that work is nearly completed and the plans aud specifications will in a few days be ready for the inspection of the contractors. (ITV MASS tOXYE.VfTOX.
