Roy McClallen, the Roseburg
young man, who shot lien A. Mahan
at Roseburg last week, is well known
in Bandon having been here camping
several times and has been in the
town at other limes. A report un
der c’ate of March'17th from Rose-
butg, says: “A warrant charging
Roy McClallen with murder in the
second degree was sworn out on di
rection of Prosecuting Attorney Geo.
M. Brown. His bonds were fixed at
$7.500. The coroner’s jury’s verdict
was non-committal. McClallen, who
is a prominent young Roseburg man,
shot and killed Ben A. Mahan,”
Taking the witness stand in his own
behalf at the coroner's inquest, Roy
McClallen told the story of his killing
of Ben A. Mahan last Monday night
and of events that led up to the
tragedy. It was the story of a man
who claimed fear for his own life as
the justification for raking the life of
another, and of preceding thieats
and actions on part ol the dead man
that made the slayer even afraid to
walk the stieets alone during the day
or night.
For three quarters of an hour
McClallen kept the stand. Though
his face bespoke a heavy mental
strain, he talked with a clear, firm
voice and his answers to the ques
tions of District Attorney Brown
catne without any hesitation. When
he had finished, two other men, Ellis
J Neal and F. B McCord, the latter
a brother-in-law of Mahan, were
called to testify, after which the case
was placed in the hands of the jury.
That Mahan attempted to draw a
gun on him before he shot him was
the first important statement made
by McClallen. Reciting that he was
en route home from the Elks’Min
strel performance with Miss Lillian
Speicher, of whom the rejected Ma
han was insanely jealous. McClallen
then testified as follows:
“Mahan catne directly toward me
on the sidewalk and I told him to
stop. He didn’t say anything, but
I knew he was after me, He kept
right on coming and when he was
within a lew feet of me he tried to
pull a gun and I filed at him with a
pistol which I drew from my vest
pocket. One of Mahan’s hands was
al his hip pocket when he'advanced
toward me. Alter he quit coming I
stopped shooting. He was lacing me
at all times unless it was when he
turned slightly in trying to draw his
gun. I do not remember just how-
many times I fired; I was naturally
excited at the time; I think 1 fired
three times, though 1 have been told
since that J fired four times. I was
not acquainted with Mahan and
never conversed with him. I have
been carrying a pistol for the protec
tion of mv life ever since the first of
the year, when Miss Speicher warned
me in a note that Mahan has threat
ened to kill me.”
The report ot the Bandon public
school for the sixth school month
ending march 10th shows a prosper
ous condition of that institution.
The report is as follows.
Do you know that of all the minor
ailments colds are by tar the most
dangerous? It is not the cold itself
that you need to fear, but the serious
diseases that it often leads to. Most
of these are known as germ diseases
Pneumonia and consumption are
among them. Why not take Cham

The report that the man who is
suspected of killing little Barbara
Holtzinen at Portland recently had
sailed from Bandon on the Elizabeth
as a stow a-way, is unfounded, and
in fact Marshal Holman never re
ported anything of the kind. Mr.
Holman said he saw a nt m loitering
about the dock when the Elizabeth
was in, and that he answered quite
well the description of the man as
sent out from Portland.
Report comes from San Francisco
that no such man was on board when
the Elizabeth arrived
It is now thought that the man
tnay be in some of the logging
camps of the vicinity, or that he may
have passed on down the coast

There is now over $2,000 reward
offered for his capture, Gov. West
