ed to be a colossal mining enterprise,
In Jackson county, this state. Mr.
Durphy represented that his comnanv
owned and controled mining property
worth $4,000,000, when the facts were
that he (Mr. Durphy), had only a
verbal option on the land, and It had
already expired. The ground has
dever been worked, but It is undoubt
edly of great value. Chicago Investors
am not take hold very eagerly, and It
Is probable that very few people have

early Tuesday night of last week. The

the Roseburg Review. It seems that
Wm. Callahan aud Lee Minard had
some trouble aud the former was or
dered out of the bouse, a command
that he obeyed. Tbe quarrel did not
stop then, however, Callahan calling
Minard outside, an invitation which
he aocepted. Minard Is said to have
struck Callahan, and the latter stabbed
him with a pocket knife iu return on
the left side, making a long wound,
but not deep enough to be serious.
Then Minard knocked Callahan down
and before the two men could be pulled
apart, Minard received a long, deep
gash In the fleshy nart of each lev
above the knee. It is said that tbe
length of the three cuts aggregate
three feet. Callahan was arrested and
arraigned before Justice Hamlin, and
neia in the sum or (1500.

saying that Goldsmith told him he
was selling five Bryan to one McKin

man said that when the procession
escorted Mitchell and Hermann up
Willamette street from the depot, there
was not a cheer from the crowded side-,
