The Second Attempt Was Awaiting Trial for Kllfng T. U. Perry. Joseph It. Willard, conllncil in tho Marion county Jull on tho charge of shooting T. 1). Perry, hunt; himself this morning about 10 o'clock, nd when ho was discovered tlfo was firtinct. Willnrd had Just recovered from wound inflicted hy himself In the early morning of December 11), when he pushed himself in four placcM with n pocket knife and nearly bled to death before he was discovered. Since Unit time ho has said that he must have been temporarily Incaitn when ho made that attempt. For sever al days past, however, he has been in a voiy despondent framo of mind, which wbh noticed by Deputy Shorlff John Eidcs, who told Sheriff Durbiu that In his opinion Willard was contemplating a repetition of his attempt at suicide. A very close watch has therefore been kept on him, and whenever ho lias had a visitor either Fstes or Colbath has been immediately present throughout the interview, to guard against Willnrd'o getting anything with which to Injure himself. There nro half n doeu persons now confined in thu Jail, and they aro re leased from their cellH about seven o'clock each morning and allowed tho freedom of tho corridor through the day. This morning they weio nil in tho main corridor, as usual, some being en gaged in a game of cards. Willard wai pacing the door near them. ITnally lie walked around the turn of the corridor toward tho water closet. A few minutes afterwnrd. one of tho prisoners, Geo. Gray, went over that way and, discovered Willard banging high above tho Moor, ho Immediately raised the alarm which was heard by School Supt. Joih'h In Ills ofllco over head. He ran to the sheriff'! olllceand called Deputy Hhurlff Colbath, and thoy went down into the Jail. They found tho other occupants supporting the limp body, but unable to cut It down ni there wai no knife available. Mr. .loiies was lifted up on thu should ers of olliors and cut tho rope, hut it was too late. Physicians were summoned, hut found Willard'n neck broken anil life extinct. Willard bud taken a sash rord from oiio of the windows and climbed up the water plo In the northeast corner of the building, after tying one end of the cord around bis neck. Then he tied tho cord around the horizontal plK) next the celling. He must have then thrown himself downward with considerable force, enough to dislocate his neck, and death was probably Instantaneous. LAST WOIII) TO HIS Will!.

It will bo but a trifle but will servo to keen tho wolf from the door for a time." TUB KILLING OF ritimV. The charge under which Willard was held for trial at the February term of circuit court, was the killing (f T. D. Perry, which occurred on Oct. 24th liut. Willard had rented a small farm near Liberty, about 6 miles south of this city and had paid one year's rent, which had onotyet expired when Willard moved ff from tho place and into tills city. Ho had previously had some trouble with Perry who had tho reputation of being violent and quarrelsome, and who bad announced his Intention of taking K)-se9sion of the placo. On Oct. 23, Perry went to tho placo with n camping outfit. On Oct. 21, Willard went out to the place where ho still had a calf and 9onie chickens, being ucconipanled by Postmaster Steven"! of Llborty. There tho killing occurred. Tho testimony of Stevens, the only eyo-witness, ut the preliminary examination, Indicated that the shooting was In sclf-defenso, hut the act wan brought out that the pistol (with which it was done, had been pur chased by Willard that morning, before starting for tho farm, though it was not shown that ho knew of Perry's having gone out. Mainly through tho efforts of Hon. Til Ford, who assisted in tho pros ecution, Willard was Iraiind oyer.Jjy Justice Johnson before whom he was examined. CKOIUnt.R CAUHK. Since his confinement Willard has boon very despondent. In conversation with Deputy Sheriff Kstes, about the Minn of his previous attempt on his own life, he expressed himself as being much concerned for his family. His health was very poor at best, and now he could do doing for his family which consists of a wife and eight children. Ho thought It would bo letter for them Ifcho wore out of tho way. It Is prob able that considerations of this nature, magnified by brooding over Ills troubler, Induced Willard to carry out a fixed de termination to end his own life. Another fact which may have iullu enced him is that, being a member of Salem Camp No. 118, Woodmen of tho World, In which ho wai insured for f 1000, that amounted would upon his death go to his family. There scums to bo no doubt hut the money will be forth-coming. The ques tion was raised at thu time of Willards' former attempt, and Head Consul Faulk enberg, of tho Pacific Jurisdiction, who was here at tho time from Denver, Col., stated that suicide did not release the order from the olilegation to pay the Insurumv. The family of the unfortunate man have had the sympathy of this com munity, which will bo only declined by the tad ending of his life. COItONIUt'x INQUEST.

Uody Found at Koot of Spencer Butte This Morning, Four weeks ago yesterday August Fischer, n well-known farmer residing south of Kugeno, started out from his residence ostensibly for tho purpose of hunting. He carried a gun and a num ber of cartridges. Failing to return fears were entertnineil that Mr. Fischer had mndu way with hlniBclf. Searching parties went out nnd hunted Industrious ly over the foothills n number of differ ent times, but failed to find any trnco of thu missing man. Ono searching party of over ono hundred men from Kugcno went out nnd spent the day In going over the hills again, but this search ended as did tho others without results. Friday morning another party started out and about 10 o'clock on tho houtb eastorn side of Spenccr'u Initio about three and one-halt miles from Fischer's homo the body was found. It was lying on one sido in a slightly cramped posi tion with Ills gun across one nnn. From a hasty examination made by the fcearchers it was evident Hint Fischer was shot through the lower part of the chin, tho ball coming out ut the top of the bead about tho center, tearing a large bole. His hat hai been blown into tho tree nbovo him. The body was in good condition, being but slightly de coniosed. Tho former searching parties had been within probnblv (iO feet of whore the body was found, and it is simply by n strango chcuinstaiuo that they ailed in their work. The foot of the hills where tho kxly was found Is very rough ground, with rocks and thick underbrush. The FopullBts.

Tho Rentis-Santloy troupe had a pretty .air nudiouce at the opera house last night, mostly men, There seemed to ho an impression that thu show was a de cidedly warm number. Perhaps it is, whore it turns iUelf loose. Hut as given last night it was very lame. The cos litmus are ipiite rich, and brief enough to suit the leabt fastidious, and theie are a lot of big, fat, cow-liko women who gambol over tho stage witli nu elephan tine playfulne'.
