Three weeks ago last Saturday, Frank BehafTer and t wo other gentle men, citizens of McMlnuvlllc, Yamhill county, left for a prospecting tour through Southern and Eastern Oregon, the citizens of that town having sub scribed a eum of mony to assist them on their m's-iion. After spending some time in Harney valley they proceeded on their way back, via Upper Soda and Lebanon, arriving at Soda Springs on Thursday of last week. On Saturday SehalTer and his two companions left camp and went to hunt deer in the hills near the springs. It seems that SchafTer got separated and wandered off by himself, and was climbing a very steep hill when an other party consisting of J. P. Need ham, a man by the; name of Dcpew, and the former's little son were hunt ing in the same vicinity, and while stopping to rest were rolling stones down the hill side. The noise was heard by the other party who, mistak ing it for the stirring of game, began creeping toward them. Needham ob served SchafTer creeping through the dense tmdergrowth, and mistaking him for a bear, shot him. Still sup posing it. to be such, he and his com panions approached the spot, when they were shocked to find their sup posed game to be an old man who lay quite dead, the bullet having entered the unfortunate man's head just above The C.i'atct Industrial Kxlillilt of (lie l'aeine Northwest. The Mechanics' Fair, which opens in Portland on October 6, and closes Octoler 22, promises to le one of the most attractive exhibitionsever held' in that city. 'There will be many new features of an attractive character, and and m all railway lines have placed the transportation rates exceedingly low, it Is expected that the fair will be largely attended by people from all parts of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Northern California. The Second United States cavalry band, the finest on tiie const, will furnish music. The fare via the O. & C. H. It. from Leban on to Portland and return, during the Mechanics' fair will te $4.25. The tickets will also include ticket for ad mittance, once to the fair, and will lie good for six days from date of sale. Tickets for children between 5 and 12 years of age, half the above rates.

Soon after the trhil and sentenced Mul ler made his escape by climbing over j the jail wall at Pendleton, sixteen feet in height. lie started on a run up along Wild Horse creek and madethlr- ce at Seio. On Monday evening of last week we enjoyed a real treat In listening to a lecture fit in Prof. Rooi k, .of Michignn, ou the subject now uppermost in the minds of the people temperance. It Is perhaps a well worn theme, but It did not seem so from his original way of treating the topic. There wna a good audience present, although we had but one days notice before hand and our young people, who are only too glad to help on the cause all they can, were prepared with some very appropriate songs. The speaker could be with us but one evening, and therefore said ho would have to con dense four evenings In one, which made the address rather lengthy, but no one seemed weary. He evidently thought there might be Infidels present and gave them some hot shots; in, fact demolished them. On the subject of personal re sponsibility, Ills ideas were thoroughly practical and sensible, but hardly in accordance with much of the namhy pamby style of talking and preaching we often hear which really encoura ges vice by telling how wicked one may be and then reform and be as good as the lest without any trouble about past misdeeds, whose consequen ces might reach others through all eter nity. The Professor is evidently a le liever In backboue and In calling things by their right names, and does not encourage sentimentality. He used the blackboard to make clear bis views like a master, and the young people can hardlj' forget the object of life w hich he enforced upon' them so well, in a way to kindle ambition. He is evidently not a sympathizer with the old hardened toper; probably his ear ly exp; rlence as a drunkard's son, took away any sickly views, and taught hint bare facts, but he is intensely earnest In saving the young and to that end blotting the saloon out cf ex istence. He did not need to say he w as in full sympathy with us in our efforts in unions, it was very appan nt. Nature made him a maniac and ridi cule of the rum power is an effective weapon w ith hint. But I hope all our people Id Linn county will have a chance to hear him, for he will ur doubtedly win votes. In the m an time our vile saloon here Is turning out drunkards on the streets daily, to insult decent ieople. Fights are of al most daily occurrence, and our little city is prospering. (?) We are cursed with such prosperity; may the tid soon come, and our beautiful state tnke rank morally with Maine, Rhode Is land, Kansas and Iow a. Cor Sec. The Pay As You Go System.

Skeen after introducing him self to Bently, made himself conspicu ous around the seats occupied by the Sheriff Bently occasionally walked up and down ths cars for exer cise, and, taking advantage of this, Skeen who had a key that fit the shack le, unlocked those on Nuse's ankles; then those surrounding Haney and af terwards gave the key. to Muller to un lock himself.
