A MvsrniiY. An old settlor
tunned Louis Mar, who has lived
alone lor many years on his claim
about four miles below the Lower
('.if-eadcH, on the Washington side,
was found dead in a lield back ol
his house several days since. Jle
had been shot and was found with
his gun lying across his breast. One
barrel of the gun, which was an
old shot gun, was discharged, and
It had evidently been placed across
tho body to give the impression that
Mar had shot hiuibclf. Jt is sup
posed that the old man had some
money by him, and that he was
murdered on that account, as the
house was ransacked and everything
turned upside down. Two men
who have bt.cn camped near the
placo are (inspected of committing
tho murder, as they disappeared on
the day it was committed, tho boat
in which they crossed the river hav
ing been found where they left it.
Tho matter has been kept quiet in
hope of securing the murderers. It
in said that in addition to tho irun
Hhot wound there is a hole mado by
a rillu bullet through tho breast.

How a Young Tombstone Agent Charm
ed nn Olil Worn an nml lias Willed
to Him Untold Niches.
A gentleman in this city says the
Walla Waliu Statesman tells a story
that would do credit to many ilcti
tiotis talcs. "Truth is stranger than
fiction" has been quoted so often
that it is almost threadbare, but,
like "Jlomc. Sweet Jlome." It will
never hv-o Its significance or forfeit
its truth. Very applicable Is It to
the present wonderful stery:
Down in tlie Willamette valley
there resided an old farmer and Ins
wile, in every sense of the word
happy and contented and withal
well-to-do. JJut there came upon
that household a very great grief;
tlie death ani'el visited It and took
away Its stud; tho aged farmer went
to the Home ol his lathers. This
left the old lady destitute and alone.
Tho companion of her declining
years tione to his long rest, no chil
dren to make her poor heart glad,
sho longed for some one in whom
to confide, to whom she could look
for help and comfort in her old age
and her decrepitude.
A young tombstone agent travel
ing over that part of the country and
being in search of dead people,
heard of tlie death of her husband,
and, learning also of her well-filled
not'kethou.', decided to visit her at
Iter home and stay a few days and
recuperate, having been traveling
pretty faithfully for somo time. It
was Ids intention to make himself
as useful us possible to the sorrowing
lady and effectually work himself
into iter confidence and esteem,
when he naturally expeted to se
cure an order for a large and costly
monument. J Jo accordingly did as
lie had iilanned and was more suc
cessful than he had even dared to
picture to himself, so much to that
his hostess seemed to place the
greatest confidence in him. JJe
would carry in water, chop stove
wood, in fact do anything and
everything to please her.
lie had been there but a few days,
and was beginning to think of
broaching the subject of his fondest
hopes, when slieastonislied him ono
day at the dinner table in a way
that be had not even dreamed of.
She suddenly asked linn: "Do you
know what I'm going to do?" The
young man, of course, replied that
lie Hid not. blio then said slowlv
and distinctly: "I'm going to will
an my property and money to you.
I like you and believe you are an
honorable young man, and ono who
will take caro of mo in my old age."
The young man, of eour.se, tried to
reason with her, and urged the
peculiarity of such a move, but she
si ill persisted in her determination
to make him her heir. When lie
saw that sho was determined in tlie
matter, lie agreed to do it with the
exception that sho should deed it to
him for a consideration, so as to
avoid any complications with rela
tives. Tho consideration was 10.
Thus ended n most peculiar bargain.
Tho young man is living on tho
farm with the old lady, managing
tho farm and administering to her
wants with the tenderness of a son.
The property and money is estimat
ed at about 0,01)0. The names aro
not published because tlie parties do
not desire publicity.
They can bo found, however, at
their homo any day persons curi
ously inclined deslro to call.
This is indeed u most remarkably
good plot for a novel. For instance
tho old folks could have lost a boy
when very young, and this could
prove to ho tho long lost son, etc.,
etc., ad libitum, ad infinitum. Wo
merely suggest it; thoso who en
gage in weaving tales can fix it up
to suit themselves.
Tito above has went the round of
tho Sound papers and a day or so
ago tho .Iouhnai. was in receipt
of a letter from a well-known
publishing house, inquiring as
to whether tho parties were
known hero or not, and whether, it
would bo possible to obtain full and
complete particulars in tho matter.
The Joukxaij mado reply that no
such an occurranco happened near
Salem and that If tho abovo case
was so, then It must more than like
ly liavo Its headquarters near Hu
go no.
OlT.X l-'OU KNdAOIIMIINTS. A
good joke has eomu to light in which
allowed prairie farmer is tho suf
ferer. It teems that this fanner is
an old batchelor, and while in Sil
vertou some time ago told a prom
inent citizen there that ho had
decided to leave oil' this single bless
edness and take unto himself a
better half, provided suoli a person
could lie found among tho femalo
sex who would eonent to the agree
ment. Tho Sllverton gentleman
told the farmer that ho was well ac
quainted with a lady in Salem who
ho thought would consent to tho
match ami also informed tho
farmer that should he gain tho
hand of tho lady ho had in view

Thus it will be seen from the
above as tho Jouknai predicted
that it would not prove such a finan
cial success ns was first supposed.
There is no doubt but what an im
provement has been made in tho
scholar's writing, but should they
not have made this improvement
under the faithful teaching of their
teachers.
Tho matter is over now, and tho
JomtMAfj has made its standpoint1
plain In regard to sueli doing' in a I
public school. Its standpoint has j
been supported by, it would c-eui
irom the above statement, at It-.-ist
three-fourths of the people of Sa
lem. The proof is too
plain, (o get around. It is a
clear fact that it will take about
100 such doings at tho school before
enough net profit Is realized to pur
chase a bell larger than a good-sized
cow bell.
It Was a Success. Tho Chicago
Comedy Company made tho hit of
the season last evening by tlie rendi
tion of that great five act play en
titled "The Long Strike." Reed's
opera, hotiso never held a more pleas
ed audience. Tlie play was of such
ii nature that It was easily compre
hended by young as well as old, and
so real were tho scenes that tho largo
audience were held In enrapt sileuco
from one act to tho other. Val. E.
Love ns "Noah Learoyd," leader of
tho strike, carried a difficult role,
but so well did ho carry it out that
a number of times a ripple of ap
plause would burst forth from the
audience. .las. A. Devlin, as usual,
was tho favorite in his leading char
acter ns a lawyer; Wildbird lumaii
in the part of "John Rley," an
Irish sailor, completely carried
tho jest of laughter in his
clover acting. Mortimer Snow also
camo in for his partof glory as "Jem
Starkie." Tho most exciting sccno
of all and the ono that was of most
interest to tho audience was that of
tho telegraph station. Devlin in
this scene was enabled to play at
full force and if lie did not do so last
evening then his strength as an
actor has never been told. "Keep
cool Jane" will long be remembered
by those In attendance. To-night
tho company present "Colleen
Dawn" which will no doubt score as
great u success as "Tho Long Strike."
