Kk kkdto Death. Wednesday even
ing John Hnrrer, known here for years ns
Jack Ccok, was found in the coral, at Mr
A Hncklcman's, in U12 eastern suburbs ol
the city .lying on the ground.wi'.h a fright
ful gash in liis head and Ills brains oozing
out. He had been breaking a young horse
in the coral and the indications were that
he was trying to lie the horse up when
kicked ; but no one was piesent and the
unfortunate man never spoke after found.
Urs Hill and Maslon were called, but it
was loo lale to do anything. He died at
9HS o'clock. The deceased had lived In
Oregon for nbout twenty years, and had
woikcd for Mr Hack Ionian eleyen yeais,
nl ihntlmii in his Prntik cuuntv
ranch, breaking horses. He was about
thirty-five years of age and was c, r.tcady,
reliable hand. He was buried in the city
cemetery.
An Example. The following from the
Salem Journal ihows what can be done in
this glorious Valley in the fruit line : "S
A Clark and son shipped two car loads of
dried fruits from this place to-day,one car
consigned to Helena, Montana, and the
other to Butte City, Montana, Mr Clark
has shipped in all five car loads of dried
fruits thus far this season.all secured from
fnrtv acres of fruit trees. Sixty thousand
' pounds have s far been dried from this
number of acres. Mr Clark could have
fnund a readv market for double the
mniint of fruit he will have for sale. His
fruit farm Is a success and its fame Is be
coming known far and near."
At Large. The darkey Gibbs, who
killed Jas McDevlit at Portland, has nol
been found. It seems a mighty easy thing
in this country for a mu-derer to escape.
