Stabbing Affray at Eugene.
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

! 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

TENNESSEE HAPPENINGS.
BY CVSAR.
Nov. 7, 1896.
There is talk of having a literary
start here soon,
James Blacklaw has finished his

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.
On the 25th of November there will
be a shooting match at the residence of
"David B." Wood. The way the
mutch will be conducted is as follows;

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.

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.
M, F. MoCVmnell, defaulting K. of
I', keeper of records and seals, has gone

Tlie Telegram says: "McDonnell's
downfall, which was quite a sensation
in this city, was brought about by
whisky and curds. When arraigned
and asked if he bud anything to say,
McCounell said that he had no defense
to make of ills conduct. Sentence was
then pronounced. It is believed that
the Oregon K. of P. lodges iiave lost
altogether something like $:i,000
through McConneil's speculations."
