THE SILETZ
TRAGEDY.
The recent tragedy at Siletz, which
resulted in the death of three people,
including the murderer, is being in
vestigated It transpires that whiskey
was at the botun of the whole affair,
and Gus Olseh, of Toledo, is accused of
being the man who sold the stulf.
The story is that he sold three bottles
of whlBkey to Spencer, who took it
home and he and his wife got drunk,
and it is said attacked Felix, who shoti
and killed Spencer and Mrs. Metcalf.
The latter had gone with Felix to the
Spneers after some furniture and the
trouble is said to have occurred by
Spencer trying to have Mrs. Metcalf
drink, objected toby Felix.. and that the
whole three fought him and he had to
shoot in self-deferse. After he had
killed Spencer and Mrs. Metcalf he'
then took his own life. Mrs. Spencer
says positively that the whiskey was
gotten of Gus Olsen of Toledo. The,
government proposes to push the in
vestigation to the bottom. The man
who is low enough to sell liquor to an
Indian should be given more than the
common bootlegging punishment.

Chairman J. S. Van Winkle, of the
Chautauqua grounds committee spent a
sleepless night figuring on a much
needed tabernacle for next year's Chau

for higher seats, o be built on about
25 foot piles, with a curtain arrange
ment, for removal during the winter,
roofed for the high water record. The
probable cost will be learned. There is
a good place fur a ball ground at the
site of the tent.
