His Watch was Slow. The following is an account given us of a Pendleton young man's experience near Milton last Sun day. . The genial deputy Sheriff J. E. Beam and Miss Wilson a well known young lady of Pendleton were visiting last Sunday at the fruit farm of D. M. McDanald on Mud Creek. Another lady for whom the young official entertains the kindest regards, was also visit ing at the same place for a lew days. Having the duties of a county official on. ' hand, made it very necessary to "catch the even ing train at Milton. The blissful moments grew precions as the time of departure approached. With his heart in one hand and his time piece in the other, the young man counted the fleeting seconds. 40-35-30, 30 minutes he said ;is plenty. Another "good bye" an affectionate farewell which act alone marks the blessed boundary line be tween the leaves of hope and fear and we are off for the train. At-ft' point three miles from the deot, the time piece was consuJSecl and ' then for the first time hjs remem bered the watch was tell minutes slow, allowing only six? short min- utes to make the, tjLip Vscr 1 horses, how their weary feet must 4y-ever cobbles stones and ditches, but the train must be made. The young lady took a firm hold of the buggy seat. Mr. B. with the de termination of a desperate resolve urged the horses to their utmost speed, and a poor frightened pas senger, who was beating a ride, drew his breath in "short pants" while mud and gravel . flew like winter's withered leaVes. Well, to make a shlorl 'story; we arrived at the station to find that the train, in order to accommodate us, was just ten minutes late. Then, besides their other clothing, all hands wore a happy, smile. Cost Him S6000. W. Hi Fletcher, of Basket Mountain J was down to Pendleton Saturday. '. Mr, Fletcher is busy collecting evidence and preparing for tho trial of Peter Gaskell, who was jointly ' indicted .' with his son, FrtoFFteWner,"for the murolcr of Charles Petrie. Mr. Fletcher claims to be in possession of newly discovered evidence which bears on the case. ; He remarked that ho was a pretty good lawyer now him self, but that his experience thus far with the law in tho Fletcher Petrie case has cost him in cash f and loss of business about $6000, at least $4000 of this being actual cash expended directly for the ex penses ol the trial.
