The inquirer wanted to know if in a household where the family consisted r.i" a parent, two sons over 25 and a d lighter !10, all of them earning scp- irate incomes, they could not indi i.ltmlly secure liquor. In holding lint they could not, Mr. Itrown yester . ty quoted a definition of a family, as f 'Hows: "In its ordinary and primary sense 1 ie term aignifios the collective body i persons living in one house, or un i :r one head or manager, or one do lestic government, the relations be Veen such persons necessarily being i 1 a pernianunt or domestic character not that of persons abiding temporar ily together as strangers a household, liioso who live under the same roof with the pater familias, who form his fireside." The law says it shall he unlawful for any person or family to receive u hhipmeut of more than two quarts of whiskey or two dozen bottles of beer during four consecutive weeks. Mrs. L. Knapp and Mrs. Win. Gil lings made a visit to Handon Saturday returning the following day. We would Vol vouch for tlio trutli oi me state ment, but its reported that the pre sence of the ladies so rattled "Horn that ho tried running his jitney wrong side up. Continued from last week.

Hedden pulled out the shaft leaving a three inch piece to which the arrow head is attached. Hedden had escaped without a wound but bruised by the blows of clubs. They escaped to the brush holding the Indi an at the bay with their rifleo. While so doing, they both hail made good work in their fight leaving mourners in the Indian camp. It was not long before the fatal arrow shaft and head began their terrible work, causing most acute pains and intense suffering The following day his bowels com menced swelling. He could only with the greatest difficulty put one foot before the other. His faithful com rade would gather Sallal berries for him to eat, aid him to advance, he beg ging to be permitted to lie down and die. His comrade knew his where abouts, he having been one of the nine who had escaped from Battle Koek on June 22nd and encouraged him, car rying water in his dilapidated cap for long distances, and upon the nineth day after the massacre reached the mouth of the Umpqua river where for tuately they found the Brig Fawn. Captain Wood who sent his boat con vvinir them seven miles up the river x'.tn ulml. is now Gardiner, at which place, the Sea Gull on her previous voyage had carried Col. Wilson of I'onsylvania, the first collector of the port, being then the Donation Claim of lix-Governor Gibus of Oregon. Wil liams was terribly and fearfully swol len, his bowels ready to burst, and on the night of the landing at Gardner, the wound opened and discharged which relieved him greatly from the intense pain, C. Hedden, his comrade never deserted him, labored to earn means for his support, bandaged and washed his wounds for him for nearly three years. In thes pring of 185G at RoseJiurg, Douglas county, Oregon, thu shaft and arrow head were ertract id. All who knew him esteemed him for his worth. Of the two we will have occasion to speak of again and will now return to the scene of the dis aster. Hero five of the party were literaly cut to pieces so that the remains' or portions of them could not be indenti f.ed.

When convinced, how ever, he shelled out. Pop Corn was said to have opposed the marriage, but when appealed to said, "Shucks!" and headed the list for the husking.

The winter storms had now set in; the night after the landing a heavy gale from the southeast together with a heavy sec, coming up.The steamer kept her machinery going sufficiently to keep her up to her anchor to avoid parting her chains. When the gale subsided, Col. Casey vho hail arrived a day or two before the Sea Gull, chartered her to convey the troops, or a portion of them, to the mouth of the Coquille river, while Lieutenant Stan ton hauled one whale boat up to that place ready to ascend the river a pur suit of the savages who remained hos tile. The murderous disipsition of the savages required an exhibition of the power of the white man that could only be done by the rifle. The ship conveying the troops arrived at the mouth of the Coquille river (the Indi an name for that stream was Ness cutt) at early down, and preparations were made immediately for the debar cation of the troops. The Captain took charge of the boat in passing through the surf. The first and se cond were landed all right, but the third boat pitchpoled and it was with difficulty the soldiers were rescued The crew gained the land, but the Cap tain remained with the boat to keep it from being stoven on the rocks. The heavy sea running from the west, and increasing every moment made it im possible to make another landing. The swamped boat made several efforts to regain the open sea outside the breakers before succeeding. One more effort was made to land, Lieutenant Stoneman being one of the number, he being anxious to join the men already landed there not being enough to re sist an attack of the Indians but the effort, was fruitless as the sea had in creased so greatly that the boat had to return to the ship. The ship remain ed nt anchor until dawn of the follow ing tiny with the hope that the sea might calm down, which was not the case, as it was then running at a fear ful rate. The vessel could not take up her anchor and was compelled to slip thirty fathom of chain, the sea breaking under her counters, and when just clear of thei rformer position breaking at the point her head just vacated, which had one of them gone at the stern of the ship, would have caused every person on her to have been lost as the sea was breaking for a half mile, through which it would have been impossible for anyone to reach shore.
