Tho tourists to the Coquille and coast mountains are returning slowly, and various are the stories they tell ef the slaughter of tho trout. Frank was the first to get back filled to overflowing, while somewhat modest in his declarations, the stories that he told of the cool retreats and swarms of the finny tribe would cause one to wish an adieu to the dust and smoke of the valley and be off for the mountains, only if he could. The next to return was the Messrs. Sheridan's, refreshed by the sea breeze and ready for active business again, and the account they give of the catch of the speckled beauties by Mrs. Tolls, Chase and Sanctuary would lead one to expect a bigger fish story, when Sanctuary returns, than any recorded laths Apochrypha. Sheriff J. S. Purdom has gone to Portland to ba present on Friday at the execution of Anderson for the murder of bis brother. The evidence on which Anderson was convicted is circumstantial, there being no witnesses to the homicide. He, up to the present time firm'y maintains his innocence, while the ev- idence against him is strong it is possible that he is innocent of murder. Should it hereaf- ter transpLe that another, and not Anderson' did the killing, thero would be added an- other to the already long list of judicial murders, and fresh proof of the unreliability of circumstantial evidence. If he is guilty it is to be hoped that he will make a clean breast of the matter before the final moment.' To Criteser has purchased the saloon near the posteffice formerly occupied by L. Zigler, and has entirely refitted the Bame. He has a new first-clas- s billiard table and a cosy room where he sells ice cold beer by the quart. His liquors are said by experts to be f the best quality. A son of John Hoi man, of Salem, stole two horses from J. B. McClain, hitched them to his father's buggy and drove to Portland where he sold the outfit and took the steamer for" San Francisco. On his arrival at that place he was arrested and will be returned to Salem. There was made at Mrs. Ccmpton's dress- making establishment ia Roseburg during the ninety days preceding tho 4th of July, eighty fine dresses for womea arid young ladies. This is truly encouraging to mar- riageable voung men to know that the young ladies of the period lack the accomplishment of being able to make their own clothing, but have to resort to this popular establishment in order to get a perfect fit. Even the great and noted have their part of the foibles of mankind; here is the Queen of Spain returning to her pa because her royal hubby is too sweet on another woman, while Nellie Grant's fcartoris Las kicked up the biggest kind ef a fuss at Milwankeo be- cause of bis peculiar intimacy with a beauti. ful blonde English grass widow. If this thing keeps up, even his Royal Innocence, the Prince of Wales, may be the next victim of the scandal monger. The Dudo ha3 appeared in Roseburg. It is a specimen of the gehiua homo, peculiar unto itself; it is small of stat. ure, walks upright on a wide track with a colossal swell; it 3ucks the end of a cane, talks loud and swears inces- santly, and wears eye glasses which gives it an owlish expression f coun- tenance. Have you seen it? , The last joke of the season is con- tained in a 'Washington dispatch which 8tat?s that the Jong absence of General Crook is accounted for bv the fact that probate business JULY 1883.

MYfiTLE OSEEK. The refreshing showers have done much good for Southern Douglas. Mr. Lee has sold his farm to II. Dyers, our obliging salesman at the GVange store. Joseph Lane has gone out on tho line of railroad to work on the Blue Cut. J ohn Hall is the boss granger in this section, especially on corn. Hon. D. S. K. Buick speaks of sell- ing his hotel property. A good chance for some one to secure a bargain. Some of the fair ones of Myrtleville must be scarce of handkerchiefs from the way the white dresses wave at the railroad boys. Samp J ones can eat more sour gi-ape- s than tke next fellow and ho says his friends forsake him when the claret gives out. A. D. Guess, conductor from Rose- - burg to Glendale, on No. 9 and 10, is the same genial gentleman that you once met in the State of Georgia. He has many warm friends in Myrtle. The church building is now being ag- itated in such a manner as to secure its early construction. Lovely women have taken the lead in many glorious and grand undertakings, and she will be victorious in erecting a house for tho worship of God at Myrtle. A county road is much needed from this place to Day's Creek. It is seven or eight miles nearer to the railroad than any other point. Missllen Gabber fc, who has been in Portland for some time under the treat ment of Doctress Owens, has returned home. She is much improved in health and will soon be able to perform her many duties around vhe attractive home. Some of the young men are puzzled to know why the fascinating girls of tbis ville fancy the average stranger better than the home boys. It will re- - mam an ennrma. Last Monday, F. M. Gabbert, our energetic and liberal townsman, donat ed two acres toward the building of a new school room. It is a liberal gift, and the town will be somewhat im proved by the establishing of a first- - class school. When the citizens of this county fully realize the importance of educating the mental and moral facil ities of the children, crime will be less and prosperity will be permanent. DBAI9 ITEMS. Farmers are haying and hauling hay into town. Krewson & Co. appear to be doing a pretty good business. S. Beckley is running the hotel hero and gives good satisfaction. Drain & Co. are preparing to lay the tounuation ot their new brick store They are going to move the old one. Dr. J. W. Strange, the dentist, is down below on professional business. I believe he gives general satisfaction. Dr. Kuvkeadall seems to have all the professional business or at least his share of it; he . js - the favorite about Elkton. He has a bright future loom ing up ahead of him. ; r Libel Suit. Chas. A. F. Morris, chief engine! of the Oregon and Cali fornia railroad, began suit for $25,000 yesterday in tho state circuit court against Wallace Strublo and J. F. Mc intosh, publishers of the Polaris, and Sol. Abraham of Roseburg, for dam ages for defamation of character. The claim for damages is based on a ma hcioua attack which appeared in the Polaris & few months ago, charging Mr. Morris with dishonesty in the matter of awarding contracts on the railroad, An effort was made to secure criminal indictments against the publishers, but Editors Independent: Thinking that- - a few items from this county would be ndniissablrt and of interest to tho many readers of your valuable pa per, I send a few gleanings.

' Quite a rain storm visited these parts on last Sunday, the 8th;' also on - Men-da- y of same week, damaging hay that was down in fields. The sick horses belonging to' the O. & C. R. R. Co., under the care and treatment of N. J. Sullivan vf Canyon-vill- e, are improving very rapidly. The doctor is conceded to be, by those who have a right to know, the best veteri- nary surgeon the Company has had em- ployed for the past 12 months. There was quite a J celebration at Malony ville, on the line of railroad be- low this place on the 4th; only had three fights and a"dance at night. Dr. Sterling-- , we understand, has only 2 patients under his cliarge at the present writing; the smallest number in the hospital for a long while. The doctor is spoken of in very flattering terms by the railroad eihplyees. J. Fowler.

Harvesting has commenced in earn. st and from reports from many differ- ent parts of the county the gr?in is much better than was anticipated. A better yield is expected from present indication than was obtained last year in portions of the county. The various sums raised for the ben efit of the Fire Department of the city amounting to about $200 together with three hundred dollars voted by the Board of Trustes will be expended in the purchase ot a Hook and Ladder out- fit. Rev.JI. C. Miller, of the M. E. Church, who left here on account of the enfeebled condition of his health, is residing at present at Reialia, Washington Territory.

Mrs. Anna Fourqurean, of San Marco. Texas, wife of a well-know- n and influential citizen of that place, writing under date of May 23, 1881, says: -- "In the spring of 1S7& a deep cold settled on my lungs; I had a dreadful cough, accompanied by daily fevers, sleepless nights, indigestion, less of flesh and strength, mental depression, and hem or. rhages from the lungs. This state continued for eighteen months, notwithstanding I had the treatment of good physicians. By this time I had lost all vitality, spent most of the time in bed, coughed continually, raising a large quantity of deep yellow mucus, and after a little sleep in the latter part of the night, I would awaken drenched by night sweats, and so prostrated that I could not raise myself in bed nntil I had Uken a little brandy. I began to lose hopes of life. My husband and my neighbors thought I could not possibly live. About this time ynnr Compound Oxygen Treatment' was brought to our notice. My husband immediately sent for it; I stopped'the use of all modi dues and began the 'Treatment.' I was too we&k at first to tale it for as long a time ts two min- utes; but gradually the inhalations increased in leugtb and strength, and would leave such a delightful sense of relief to my lungs that loved to innate My fevers grew lighter each day until I had none. Two weeks from the beginning of the treatment I beua to feel like a new person; could take walks; found myself singing while at my work; in- deed I scarcely recognized my own self; my flesh increased, and I felt and looked youn- ger. I used the 'Treatment' four months faithfully; after that irregularly for severa1 months, and at the end of twelve months from the time I began it, J had no cough, no sign of lung disease; in other words I was well. It is more than a year since I left off taking the Oxygen, and I have had no re- turn of tho disease."

On the 11th of July three of the escaped conviela from the Oregon penitentiary, Beauchamp, Rineheart and Mansfield, were captured by a party consisting of D. N. Gibson, M. V. Kavs, Win. Price and Peter Heter, of Stay ton, and J. K. Baff, of Silveiton. Having discovered their trail at Aumsville, the volunteer party followed it to Woodburn and going about a mile beyond towards Silverton, awaited their coining. When thev came, about 9 o'clock at night, they were challenged and upon refusing to stop fire was opened upon them, which resulted in the killing of Beauchamp and wounding tho other two, Rhine- - hart probably fatally. This leaves but four at large who have since been dis- covered clad in citizens clothing and well armed, but there is no doubt that they will soon be accounted for as the whole country is in arms. Accident. Tuesday morning the team attacnea to a wagon containing the Chinese pay master and guard when going down the Grave Creek hill, be yond Glendale, took fright from the break of the wagon giving way and started to run. The tongue came loose from the neck yoke, when Mr. Crump, who was lidmg in the seat with the driver, Mr. Ray, caught the lines and succeeded in throwing one of the horses.

One thing is very certain, he biouht back with him what was left of the renegade Indians after he and the Mexican troops got through -- with thtm. At the last regular meeting of Res--r cue Hook and Ladder Company No. 1 eld Friday July 13th, 1S83, it was or-- lred that a vote of thanks be extended to the ladies of Roseburg for the gener- ous donation of $50.50, being one half the proceeds of the strawberry festival. Also to Umpqua Hose Company No. 1 fur the sum of $122, proceeds of the Fourth of July Ball; all of which will be applied towards purchasing a hook and ladder truck. Jacob Jones, son of John Jones, re-lin- g near Roseburg, in this ceunty had the painful misfortune to have his hand caught in a circular saw run by horse power while sawing wood, and two of his fingers taken off and received a severe cut between the thumb and four finders. Drs. "Woodruff and Mars. ters were called and dressed the wound ed hand. It is to be hoped that he may not loese the use of his hand. The Commissioner of the General Land Office, under a decision of the Secretary of the Interior has issued an order to the local land office at Roseburg withdrawing from market the odd sections within the 30-mi- le limit on either side of the O. & C. R. R., as far sonth as township 36, which is near the crossing of Rogue River. Hereafter the double minimum price of 2.50 per acre will be charged by the government for the even sectiens within the twenty mile limit. Per- sons haviriEj filed preemptions prior to th 16th of July, can make proof and payment at the single minimum price of $1.25 per acre. From the amount of smoke in the valley the last two -- weeks one would suppose the entirs mountains were n fire. We learn from the people of Cole's Valley that the first range of mountains beyond that settlement have been burning for the last three weeks. While the recent rain cleared the atmosphere to some extent the shower was insufficient to put out these iorest fires. Much valuable timber is consumed annually by these fires; many of which are started carelessly or by designing persons. They should be ferreted out and punished to the full extent of the law Best quality of note paper ten cents per quire and envelopes five cents per bunch of 25. at Hamilton's W. T. Wright, Treasurer and popular salesman at F. P. Hogan's new store, was married last Saturday to Miss Fanny A. Wright. The ceremony was performed at the jarlors of the St. Charles Hotel in Portland. The fair bride is a relative of the groom and a daughter of Rev." Mr. Wright of Illinois, from which State she recently came to Oregon, and while visitiag friends iu this county an attachment sprang up between her and her khmnaD, being loth to change her name they concluded to do right The young folks havo our best wi-ht- s for a long and prosperous journey over tke matrimonial sea.

SALISBURY, H AILY &CO., Pwpta.

Tho tourists to the Coquille and coastmountains are returning slowly, and variousare the stories they tell ef the slaughter oftho trout. Frank was the first to get backfilled to overflowing, while somewhat modestin his declarations, the stories that he toldof the cool retreats and swarms of the finnytribe would cause one to wish an adieu tothe dust and smoke of the valley and be offfor the mountains, only if he could. Thenext to return was the Messrs. Sheridan's,refreshed by the sea breeze and ready foractive business again, and the account theygive of the catch of the speckled beautiesby Mrs. Tolls, Chase and Sanctuary wouldlead one to expect a bigger fish story, when

Sanctuary returns, than any recorded lathsApochrypha.

Sheriff J. S. Purdom has gone to Portlandto ba present on Friday at the execution ofAnderson for the murder of bis brother. Theevidence on which Anderson was convictedis circumstantial, there being no witnessesto the homicide. He, up to the present time

firm'y maintains his innocence, while the ev-

idence against him is strong it is possible thathe is innocent of murder. Should it hereaf-ter transpLe that another, and not Anderson'did the killing, thero would be added an-

other to the already long list of judicialmurders, and fresh proof of the unreliabilityof circumstantial evidence. If he is guiltyit is to be hoped that he will make a cleanbreast of the matter before the final moment.'

To Criteser has purchased the saloon

near the posteffice formerly occupied by L.

Zigler, and has entirely refitted the Bame.

He has a new first-clas- s billiard table and acosy room where he sells ice cold beer by thequart. His liquors are said by experts to be

f the best quality.A son of John Hoi man, of Salem,

stole two horses from J. B. McClain,hitched them to his father's buggy anddrove to Portland where he sold theoutfit and took the steamer for" SanFrancisco. On his arrival at that placehe was arrested and will be returned toSalem.

There was made at Mrs. Ccmpton's dress-

making establishment ia Roseburg duringthe ninety days preceding tho 4th of July,eighty fine dresses for womea arid youngladies. This is truly encouraging to mar-

riageable voung men to know that the youngladies of the period lack the accomplishmentof being able to make their own clothing, buthave to resort to this popular establishmentin order to get a perfect fit.

Even the great and noted have their partof the foibles of mankind; here is the Queenof Spain returning to her pa because her

royal hubby is too sweet on another woman,while Nellie Grant's fcartoris Las kicked upthe biggest kind ef a fuss at Milwankeo be-

cause of bis peculiar intimacy with a beauti.ful blonde English grass widow. If thisthing keeps up, even his Royal Innocence,the Prince of Wales, may be the next victimof the scandal monger.

The Dudo ha3 appeared in Roseburg.It is a specimen of the gehiua homo,peculiar unto itself; it is small of stat.

ure, walks upright on a wide trackwith a colossal swell; it 3ucks the endof a cane, talks loud and swears inces-

santly, and wears eye glasses which

gives it an owlish expression f coun-

tenance. Have you seen it?

MYfiTLE OSEEK.

The refreshing showers have donemuch good for Southern Douglas.

Mr. Lee has sold his farm to II.Dyers, our obliging salesman at theGVange store.

Joseph Lane has gone out on tholine of railroad to work on the Blue Cut.

John Hall is the boss granger in thissection, especially on corn.

Hon. D. S. K. Buick speaks of sell-

ing his hotel property. A good chancefor some one to secure a bargain.

Some of the fair ones of Myrtlevillemust be scarce of handkerchiefs fromthe way the white dresses wave at therailroad boys.

Samp Jones can eat more sour gi-ape-s

than tke next fellow and ho says hisfriends forsake him when the claretgives out.

A. D. Guess, conductor from Rose--

burg to Glendale, on No. 9 and 10, isthe same genial gentleman that youonce met in the State of Georgia. Hehas many warm friends in Myrtle.

The church building is now being ag-itated in such a manner as to secure itsearly construction. Lovely womenhave taken the lead in many gloriousand grand undertakings, and she willbe victorious in erecting a house for thoworship of God at Myrtle.

A county road is much needed fromthis place to Day's Creek. It is sevenor eight miles nearer to the railroadthan any other point.

Missllen Gabber fc, who has been inPortland for some time under the treatment of Doctress Owens, has returnedhome. She is much improved in healthand will soon be able to perform hermany duties around vhe attractive home.

Some of the young men are puzzledto know why the fascinating girls oftbis ville fancy the average strangerbetter than the home boys. It will re- -

mam an ennrma.Last Monday, F. M. Gabbert, our

energetic and liberal townsman, donated two acres toward the building of anew school room. It is a liberal gift,and the town will be somewhat improved by the establishing of a first- -

class school. When the citizens of thiscounty fully realize the importance ofeducating the mental and moral facilities of the children, crime will be lessand prosperity will be permanent.

DBAI9 ITEMS.

Farmers are haying and hauling hayinto town.

Krewson & Co. appear to be doing apretty good business.

S. Beckley is running the hotel heroand gives good satisfaction.

Drain & Co. are preparing to lay thetounuation ot their new brick storeThey are going to move the old one.

Dr. J. W. Strange, the dentist, isdown below on professional business.I believe he gives general satisfaction.

Dr. Kuvkeadall seems to have allthe professional business or at least hisshare of it; he . js - the favorite aboutElkton. He has a bright future looming up ahead of him. ; r

Libel Suit. Chas. A. F. Morris,chief engine! of the Oregon and California railroad, began suit for $25,000yesterday in tho state circuit courtagainst Wallace Strublo and J. F. Mcintosh, publishers of the Polaris, andSol. Abraham of Roseburg, for damages for defamation of character. Theclaim for damages is based on a mahcioua attack which appeared in thePolaris & few months ago, charging Mr.Morris with dishonesty in the matterof awarding contracts on the railroad,An effort was made to secure criminalindictments against the publishers, but

Quite a rain storm visited these partson last Sunday, the 8th;' also on - Men-da- y

of same week, damaging hay thatwas down in fields.

The sick horses belonging to' the O.& C. R. R. Co., under the care andtreatment of N. J. Sullivan vf Canyon-vill- e,

are improving very rapidly. Thedoctor is conceded to be, by those whohave a right to know, the best veteri-

nary surgeon the Company has had em-

ployed for the past 12 months.There was quite a J celebration at

Malony ville, on the line of railroad be-

low this place on the 4th; only hadthree fights and a"dance at night.

Dr. Sterling--, we understand, has

only 2 patients under his cliarge at thepresent writing; the smallest numberin the hospital for a long while. Thedoctor is spoken of in very flatteringterms by the railroad eihplyees.

Mrs. Anna Fourqurean, of San Marco.

Texas, wife of a well-know- n and influentialcitizen of that place, writing under date of

May 23, 1881, says: --"In the spring of 1S7&

a deep cold settled on my lungs; I had adreadful cough, accompanied by daily fevers,sleepless nights, indigestion, less of flesh and

strength, mental depression, and hem or.rhages from the lungs. This state continuedfor eighteen months, notwithstanding I hadthe treatment of good physicians. By thistime I had lost all vitality, spent most of thetime in bed, coughed continually, raising alarge quantity of deep yellow mucus, andafter a little sleep in the latter part of thenight, I would awaken drenched by nightsweats, and so prostrated that I could notraise myself in bed nntil I had Uken a littlebrandy. I began to lose hopes of life. Myhusband and my neighbors thought I couldnot possibly live. About this time ynnrCompound Oxygen Treatment' was brought

to our notice. My husband immediately sentfor it; I stopped'the use of all modi dues andbegan the 'Treatment.' I was too we&k atfirst to tale it for as long a time ts two min-

utes; but gradually the inhalations increasedin leugtb and strength, and would leave sucha delightful sense of relief to my lungs that

loved to innate My fevers grew lightereach day until I had none. Two weeks fromthe beginning of the treatment I beua tofeel like a new person; could take walks;found myself singing while at my work; in-

deed I scarcely recognized my own self; myflesh increased, and I felt and looked youn-

ger. I used the 'Treatment' four monthsfaithfully; after that irregularly for severa1

months, and at the end of twelve monthsfrom the time I began it, J had no cough, no

sign of lung disease; in other words I waswell. It is more than a year since I left off

taking the Oxygen, and I have had no re-

turn of tho disease." Our Treatise on Com-

pound Oxygen, its nature, action, aud resultswith reports of cases, and full informationsontfree. Drs. Starkey & Palen, 1109 &

Escaped Convicts. On the 11th of

July three of the escaped conviela fromthe Oregon penitentiary, Beauchamp,Rineheart and Mansfield, were capturedby a party consisting of D. N. Gibson,M. V. Kavs, Win. Price and PeterHeter, of Stay ton, and J. K. Baff, ofSilveiton. Having discovered theirtrail at Aumsville, the volunteer partyfollowed it to Woodburn and goingabout a mile beyond towards Silverton,awaited their coining. When thevcame, about 9 o'clock at night, theywere challenged and upon refusing tostop fire was opened upon them, whichresulted in the killing of Beauchampand wounding tho other two, Rhine- -

hart probably fatally. This leaves butfour at large who have since been dis-

covered clad in citizens clothing andwell armed, but there is no doubt thatthey will soon be accounted for as thewhole country is in arms.
