The Harrisburg Review tells about il: Judge E. N. Tandy wob on his way into the city on last Monday morning with bis market wagon, when Mr. Holloway's children came driving up behind him wilh a buggy which frightened the judge's horses, and In their scare became unmanagble. In the melee the dnublt-tree broke free ing the horses from Ihe wagon, and carying Mr. Tandy bodily over the forward end gate of the wagon bed, and In being freed from the lines was left in front of the wagnn, which had gained a momentum sufficient to carry It forward, the fore wheel running over the Judge until the hind wheel rested on the buck of his head with his face downward in the mud. Only for the timely appearance of Willie Busey on the scene his doom would have been sealed for he could not have extricated himself without help. Willie got him from under the wheel and took him to Mr. D. 8 Busey's residence and relieved him of his muddy plight; they examined him closely for broken bones or dislocted joints hut found neither. He was fearfully bruised and lacerated, but left with indomnitable will and great vital foree he will speedily recover. Judge Tandy has been very unfortu nate; this being the iccoud narrow es cape with his life within the last year. An Old Landmark Gone, The oldest building In Jacksonville, and probably the most ancient in this part of the s ate, says the Jacksonville Times, was torn down during the week, having been weakened and rendered dangerous by the high wind of Tuesday. It stood on the corner of California aud Third streets, opposite the United States hotel, and was built by lllchard Dugan for Crain, Rogers & Co., who conducted an express busi ness in connection with Adams & Co. on this coant, in 1852. When Adams &Co. failed, in 1858, which will be remembered by all old settlers, the business and building fell into the hands of C. C, Beekmau, who contin ued to carry expres until 1803, when he was succeeded by Wells, Fargo & Co. This historical structure has since been successively occupied as a saloon, telegraph office, store and finally as a warehouse by J, Nuuau, who removed his goods from It a few mouths ago. It belonged at the time ot Its demoli tion to Mrs. J. M. McCully, The buildings erected at the time that it was have been destroyed iu one way or anniher For many years It hits stood the last relic of iiie eventful days of the settlement of Southern Oregon, a silent memento of tbe times and men that were and are now uo more.

FRISCO'S JACK THE RIPPER JEKYL AND HYDE CHARACTER, Dismissed from College in Disgrace and Charged With the Brutal Murder of the Two Girls, SAN FRANCISCO, April 15.-W. H. T, Durant, suspected of the mur der of Blanche Lamout and Marian Williams, iu the Emanuel Baptist church, has lost his former calmness of demeanor. He is excited and uerv ous, and whether iunoeent or guilty, realizes his, serious predicament., He was today formally charged with the murder of Marlon Williams. He was served with a warrant from the police court Bworn to by Detective Anthony, who arrested him at Mount Diablo yesterday. His name ' today was stricken from the roll of students at tbe Cooper medical college. The police have discovered uo new develop ments siuce last night. , V Tbe report was current this morning that Duraut had conlessed, and that a third body had been fouud in the church. The police say there is not the least truth in either rumor. Chief Crowley is satisfied that Dur ant is the man who outraged and murdered Blanche Lament and Mar ian Williams. That Blanch was mur dered and afterwards carried to the belfry is evident because the thick dust in tbe belfry shows only a man's footprints, and evidence of a struggle. It is urged iu Durant' behalf that a man so small aud slbjbt as he could n t alone have carried the body up the winding stairs of the belfry.' He is only five feet seven Inches tail, and not robust look ng. The shavings and wood which hud evidently lain on tlie floor since the church wits built had not been disturbed in the belfery. Tlie murderer had placed a block of wood under tbe victim's head aud also under each heel. Stories of Durant's Jekyl aud Hyde character are coming out. In Eman uel church ho was noted for his religit.s fervor. Other residents of the missiou district say be was a frequenter of sa loons, and played cards and billiards iu the wine rooms, nightly visiting, with other youths, saloous with side entrances for women. His classmates at the medical ce'lege suy Duraut was blasphemous aud flippant In conversa tion, and especially about women. A few days after Blanche Lamont dis appeared, Duraut spoke lightly of her reputation. i Again Over the Falls at Oregon City. OREGON CITY, April 14.-Captaln Paul Webb and his barrel went over the falls again today, aud as large a crowd was here to see him as wit nessed his performance two weeks ago, The trip this time occupied ten min utes. After the barrel had been towed out Into the stream and turned adrift, the brisk southwest breeze bore it into the bieak water, which It touched just before taking tile first tumble over the electrio company's dam. The wind and the turbulent water held tbe barrel spinning half a minute at the foot of the dam, where it fell. Then it slid slowly down tbe stream, hugging the dam closely, and it was a full minute longer before the barrel was released from its perilous situation and went tumbling down the rocks to its final plunge. The re mainder of the trip was not note worthy. The craft was towed ashore as before, and the navigator released iu sound condition, exeept a fraoture of the left wrist. Wbeu the barrel fell over the dam and was held there so long, the inside gearing broke and "Webb" pnt up bis left arm to protect his head, fracturing it Instead of his skull. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report C7 ILLINOIS' CAPITOL. The Building Was Fireproof. SPRINGFIELD, III,, April 13 Illinois' magnificent $5,003,000 state, bouse caught fire iu the senate wing shortly after neon today, and in a few moments it looked as If that portion was doomed. 'The fire spred rapidly, and soon tlie whole immense build ing was filled with smoke, so that it was with great difficulty that the lire men found their way through Ihe labyrinth ot hallways in the upper parts of the capltol. The senate chamber was speedily gutted, and all the expensive fresco ing ruined. Captain William Sands, the custodian of the capltol, said thore were heavy fire walls between the north wing and doom, so there was no possible danger of the fire reaching the dome. He also said there was no pos sible chance for the fire to reach the south wiug. At 1:45 the fire was un der control. The estimated damage to the state will amount to from (75,000 to 10O,00O. Most of tho damage will, result from smoke and water. . The Indian as a Citizen. The advent of the Indian into citi zenship, especially at Pendleton np. pears to have its comical as well as dis gusting features, as this story from Ihe Tribune testifies: "A rather thrilling equestrian chase riveted the attention of the town yesterday afternoon about five o'clock, and recalled tbe old dar ing days of Indian warfare. Two redmen of pronounced dipsjmaiiiacal characteristics, having satisfied their present wants and provided for tbe future with a couple of pint flasks sf alcohol, mounted a horse in the-vicin-ity of Railroad and Garden streets, aud started off at full speed toward Main street aud up the schoolhouse hill. One of them dressed -in the usual Indian toggery, held fast to his companion, who had lost his blanket, and rode along exposing his bare brown legs to the April sun. Marshal Means scnted game, mounted a horse, galloped after them, drew his revolver and fired. The report Interrupted tlie Indians' flight, and they were soon overtaken and lodged in jail.,' Ex, A Horrible Discovery, SAN FRANCISCO, April 13 This morning several young ladles went to tlie Emanual Baptist church, on Bart lett street, between Twenty-second and Twenty-third, for the purpose of decor ating it for Easter. They found that the study of Dr. Glbsou, the pustor, had beeu broken open, and upon enter ing it they were hoi rilled by the dis covery of the body of a young girl all oovered with blaod and slashes and cut Iu many places. It was found that the unfortunate girl was Minnie Will lams, of Alameda, who bad been in the habit of visiting the church. Her clothing was In tatters, malting It plainly evident that the fiend who had taken her life had first outraged his young victim. The police are working on the case, but as yet have not ttie slightest clew to the murderer. Hale and Hearty at log. KANSAS CITY, April 14,-Uude Dayid Rains, who resides iu tho Chick asaw nation, celebrated his 108th birthday yesterday, The most re markable fact connected with the incident was the presence of bis wife, who will soon be 103 years old. For six mouths she has beeu 111 ut borne with her son, who is 75 years old, but against the protests of hor physicians she left her bed to honor her husband. Rains has lived tu the Indian oonutry for 30 years, and Is hale and hearty. Nellie Uly, Married, NEW YORK, April 13.
