B aker C ity , Or , March 3.—Two him dred men made a determined attempt this morning to lynch Pleasant Arm strong, in the jail here, for the murder of Minnie Ensminger, at North Powder on December 24. » Most of the men were railroad em ployes. ranchers and miners from Nort i Powder, and who were friends and ac quaintances of the Ensminger family. They gathered at Baker City at mid. night and attacked the jail nt 2 o’clock this morning The Sheriff had warning of the ap- proach of the mob and, just in time, spirited Armstrong across the street to the Bowen Building, where he was kept under guard till daylight. The mob would not disperse until it had searched every nook and corner of the jail. The attempted lynching will be inves tigated by the court and the grand jurv and the leaders brought to trial, if possi ble. Armstrong and Minnie Ensminger were lovers. The girl’s parents objected to their union and thev made a compact to commit suicide together.

Dawson, because we did not give the veteran wea ther prophet the whole of the credit for getting the bar surveyed and obtaining the recent appropriations for the im provements in the bay.
