SEVERANCE, ATTORNEY-AT LAW, TILLAMOOK, OREGON. The cougars have been taking John Hathaway’s sheep lately, and it seemed impossible to catch or kill the mutton loving beasts. The services of J. W Walling were secured, it being known that he was an expert cougar hunter, and had a dog that would drive then to bay Mr Walling and others stayed out until 2 o'clock, when the dog scented the trail. He followed the cougar until four o'clock in the morning when he brought him to bay. The cougar had a small trap on one foot, and this pre vented him from climbing a tree. Ernest Ginger took a shot at him, and the bullet went through the end of the cougar’s tail, and this enraged the beast until he began a savage onslaught on the dog. At this junction John Wilson ran up within a few feet of the cougar and shot him through It killed him dead, but in his death struggle he gave a vicious lunge, and swung his murder ous paw out towards Mr. Wilson, barely missing him. Wilson run as fHHt as lie could, and in hie excitement run over four men Wilson was on hand at the skinning and claimed the skin and claws, though II it is generally considered that the man who has the dogs is entitled to the tro phies of the chase. There is still another cougar with son,? kittens in the neighborhood, and Mr. Walling is going to try to catch them From La Grande. MISCELLANEOUS, DRUGS«* 'W William^ C. & E.

HADLEY, GRAND CENTRAL BILLIARD HALL. Fine Llouor* and Cl«are Tillamook, Oreion E d H eadlight :—As I cannot find time to write to each one of my friends personally in Tillamook, I will write you a brief description of my trip and the country I traveled through, for publication. I left Tillamook May 13, and arrived at I . a Grande on June 2nd . I had no serious trouble on the road ex cept while crossing the Coast Range, and that was caused by trying to run my broad gauge wagon on a narrow gagueroad. I finally got through all right by hiring two team* to help me to the summit. Crops of all kinds looked well between Yamhill and Portland, but "hard times and no money" was the cry all along the road. Arriving at Portland, I ship]>ed my outfit up the Columbia river on the steamer Dalles City to the Cascade Locks. There we were transferred to the steamer Regula tor end carried on up to The Dalles The scenery along the river is delight- ful. From The Dalles we Bailed in our prairie schooner for Pendleton. We traveled 150 miles through one of the most desolate, god-tor-saken countries I ever saw. Between Tlie Dalles and Umatilla river the grain is all dried up, and the grass eaten out by numerous Irands of horses. Water is hard to get and bad when you get it. A great many of the settlers have left the country and the rest of them would go if they could get away. I had to buy water for my team and family. One night I informed the man I bought it of that Dan Bowers of Tillamook could supply hint with water in any quantity and at prices to suit the times He said that owing to the stringency in money matters he was unable to invest just now, but if times got better he he would write to Dan tor catalogue etc. Crops are good on the Umatilla reser vation, also here in Grand Ronde valley. ! Fruita of all kinds will lie very plentiful here this year, eepet ially apples, pears, peaches and plums. 1 am very favor- ! ably impressed with Grand Rond* valley There ia plenty of every thing I.ere except money. There la no de mand for laborers or anything else here at present, and I would advise any one in Tillamook that enjoys good bsaltli to stay there, st least, until time* got better than they are at present. I am located 2!4 miles from I a Grande and am very busy making improve ment on my plac*. My family and my-, self are enjoying good health, and are well Mtiafiied with our new horn*. With good wish«« for Tillamook and her people I will close Yours Re spectfully, F.X. F aibhcbst early this morning. Baldwin having suspected his wife, said he was going into the country, but instead hid near the house He went in at 4 o’lock and found a young man named Youman and Mr». Balewin asleep. Baldwin called out, “Young man you are in the wrong room As Youman tried to escape the injured husband fired, killing him in stantly. Then be made hie wife go to the front door to exhibit herself to ths crowd that gathered. Baldwin then gave himself up. He has lived in Flori da 12 years. He is about 60 years old, his wife being younger, and comes of a good family. STATE NEWS AS TOLD BY THE STATE NEWSPAPERS.
