The Eugene Guard publishes an ac count ( f u stabbing affray at that place, as follows: A. U. Mathews, a well known citizen am', one of the owners of the Eugene Boiler Mills, and J. D. Craig, a barber, engaged in a combat at the side door ' of Ihe Huffman house, on Ninth street, between 8 and 9 o'clock Monday night which resulted In Mathews being cut within an inch of his life. The fight grew out ol an old quarrel. Just one week ago Motiduy night Mathews entered Craig &, Vincent's shop to get a shave. Craig's chair was empty (lint and he offered to shaye Mathews, but the latter declined, say ing he would wait for Vincent and remarking that Craig hud shaved bitn ouce before and cut his face. Cruig denied the statement and a dispute ensued. Mathews called Craig a liar and the latter returned the compli ment with a liottle of hair oil, barely missing Mathews' head. The bottle sient its force against the wall and bystanders prevented the quarrel from terminating with more serious resultB. Buuday niht was the first time that the two men met after the quarrel of a week ago. An inteuse hatred must l1 cxl"t1 between mem aim ! ht'n tllev eame together trouble wus K eu9ul!. Craig was just ill the act of entering the side door ot the hotel when Mathews came along. Maddened by the sight of his enemy Mathews was seized with au uncoil troluble desire to get revenge. Lung ing forward he struck Craig a heavy blow with bis clinched fist. Both mea are large and powerful. Craig was staggered by the blow and the two men grappled. Craig was forced backward ofl the sidewalk and fell in the muddy street with Mathews on top of him. When first strnck, Craig had his hand in his pocket. When he withdrew it he must have drawn out a small penknife, and which lie open ed in some manner with bis right hand liegan slashing Mathews' left side. Mathews had on a heavy over coat, which protected him some and probably saved his life. The keen edge of the knife blade penetrated the 80 nluci) apiece to pay forone turkey, clothing of bis left arm in three dif- jad each will get one shot.

TENNESSEE HAPPENINGS. BY CVSAR. Nov. 7, 1896. There is talk of having a literary start here soon, James Blacklaw has finished his residence and will move into It soon. Oscar Davis went visiting last Sun day to the lower part of Tennessee. We wish you good success, Oscar. The election news was received with down-cast looks by the demo-popullst-o-erats at this place, who were looking for Bryan's election. In a recent issue of the Exi'RKSH I notice another person has appeared in politics. A "Stayer" he calls himself. This "Stayer" seems to be well ac quainted with my name and polities. As for my polities, I heg to inform ' Slayer" that, In the words of that great statesman, Duvld B. Hill, "I am a democrat," always was and always will he. I am on to Mr. "Stayer." We are informed at the very hour of this writing Ihat there will be a basket social held at Ihe school house Satur day, November, 21. Everyone should be present, for a fine time is expected. Ladies, bring your baskets filled with good tilings to eat, and gents, bring your pocket-books filled with gold to buy them with, for McKlnley is now elected and confidence is restored, you can spend money without any fear of losing it. See? Several loyal democrats and popu lists of this place, who are from the state of Tennessee, after seeing the bulletin which announced McKinley's majority in that state decided in a body to charige their birthplace from that state to Nebraska, or form a con federacy and go to Tennessee and kill all the "niggers" who voted for Mo Kinley, hut they were happily Inter rupted in their plpns when the news came that Bryan had carried their na tive stale.

Harmon reviewed aniJ pointed out the work of tlie Epworth League. He showed in a terse and lucid manner Its advantages to the church. He also spoke highly of the older members of the church, who have done so much to build up this sacred institution, but tried to impress it upon the miuds of the members of the league, that these christian heroes and heroines would soon pass away, and that the young members of the church would have to lake the places made vacant by these good men and women. With all, it was an interesting and profitable service, and was enjoyed by the large congregation present. Chicauo, Nov. 11.

Search for the Robbers Given Up, TheCorvallis Times says that Mr. A. H. Kroeschel was in that city to confer with the sheriff. He reported no trace at all of the robbers, who have undoubtedly made a successful escape. That paper says: Some people took the view that Kroeschcl's story was a fake, and that he had not been robbed, but Sheriff Rickard takes a diftereut view of tlie matter. Eighty yards from tlie spot where Kroeschel declares the robbery to have taken place, the morocco pock et book in which Kroeschel carried the gold was found, and leading to the spot tracks that tallied exactly with the description given of the size of those robbers were discovered. On tlie dilapidated rail fence, where Kroeschel says the men were sitting ub he ap proached, shavings were found where tlie men had whittled as they waited for their victim. All of which corrobo rates tlie story of robbery as Kroeschel told it shortly after it happened, both to the Times man and the sheriff, Sheriff liickard has given up the hunt for the robbers. The approach of the regular term of the circuit court and the manifold duties that the court business brings to the sheriffs office, together with the collection of delin quent taxes now In progress, makes It impossible for him to devote further time In the search for the men who so easily pocketed a thousand in gold that belonged to another.
