Captain W. W, Saunder, tsyt the
Sunday Orcgnnlan, recently pardoned
from the penitentiary, t at Spokane,,
wheie he contemplates, locating. In
stead of going to Texas. After leav
ing the Oregon penitentiary, Sanndert'
went to Spokane, and immediately
hunted up George W. Belt, formerly
prosecuting attorney of the Third
district of Oregon, and now of that
city. The Spokane Chronicle Rives 'a
long story of the arrival of the pardon-'
ed convict, and ntrratet the story of
tile crime. The story concludes: "I
am not at all ashamed to have people
ki:ow I have served a term of im
prisonment for killing a man In de
fense of a woman's- honor,' said Saori
dert ' yesterday," drawing himself
proudly up to his full majestic height.
'I am still a young man and hope to
again become a useful and respected
Citizen.' Saunders is only 37 .years oi
age. His Imprisonment precluded the
possibility of J)ls marrying tho glrippntyi U..S, Commissioner, waved
of hie choice, who. It now said to be a
resident of Boise, Idaho. Police Ser;
Scant Charles Bartow knows Sau nders
well, having been a guard at the
Oregon penitentiary when Saunders
was admitted." The" Chronicle givee
to Mr: K, P. Hogan;of Spokane, form
erly of Roseburg, the entire credit of
the capture of Saunders after he had
escaped from jail. This it Incorrect.'
Sau riders' captors ' were D. B. Mon
teilh, of A lean y, and Mr. Hogan.
Mr. Monteith bad quite as much, If
not more to do with It at Mr. Hogan-
In speaking of the pardoned murd
erer, Captain Sounders, the Oregonlan
says: There were rumors in circula
tion at the time of the trial that he bad
a wife in Texas, and this appears to
bare been the case; but whether di
vorced or not Is not known here. A
short time before Saunders Was pard-
oned, Judge Bellinger received a letter
from lawyer Id Bonham, Texas,' whoB. Harris, ofthe secret service dlvi-
had once Tedded here, asking for .in-j
formation In regard to Sanndert' pros
pects for securing 'a pardon, and ex
pressing a bope that Judge BeHinger
would-use any influence be .might
possess toward securing Saunders' par
don. It was added that Saunders had
a wife, a tery worthy lady, and a
daughter sixteen years old. At to
whether there hat been any legal sepa
lation between Saunders and bis wife
is probably known to Saunders. ..' .' .

Mis, Mllllcan and others had a par

ing to Hale. There were lu the party
Oscar Busey and wife, Mrs- Millican
and lula Bradley. They had a team,
one horse of which had not. been
driven but little, aud was not shod.
In going up a grade where was an em
buiikmeut about fifty feet high this
horse slipped and plunged over. the
grade. The other horse braced him

Busey got around and cut the harness,

working down the creek some distance

Dwelling Burned, ;
Last , Wednesday morning about
nine o'clock, our little city was thrown
into a state of excitement by the fire
bell giving the warning of a fire. It
was soon discovered that it was the
Hart property,:, on Bridge avenue
which Is now owned by Thomas
Fwlng, apd occupied by Mr. Dell. : As
the property was out of the reaou of
water and the fire was under good
headway before the fire company got
there, the boys could only stand and
watch It burn. It it supposed the fire
started from a defective flue, but tye
don't see bow it Is probable, at the
building bad good new brick flues, but
cannot advance any other theory. Mr.
Dell got out the most of his things.
The building cost about $750 when
built, and was almost new. It was In
sured for $800 lu the fioyal lusurauos
company. . - "
