il LETTER FROM OREGON.
A MOST DEPLORABLE DEATH,
A Fifteen-Year-Cld Youth Almost Instantly
Killed by the Fall of a Piano.
Clarence Jones, aged aliout fifteen
years, son ol .Mr. ami Mrs. uuey jones,
of this city, wasalmost instantly killed
on Saturday afternoon about 4:;;o by
being crushed under a piano. The
unfortunate boy never regained con
sciousness and the body was horribly
disligured. The particulars of the sad
accident are about as follows:
Messrs. Saltier & Fassliender. the
furniture dealers, were engaged to furn
ish one of their pianos for the perform
ance of "The Crisis" at the l'armele
theatre the same night. It seems that
young J ones, Fat Kelley and a boy nam
ed (5 raves were on the wagon balancing
Instrument, which was being removed
from theirstoretotlie theatre. While
passing through the alley in the rear
of the Hotel liiley, one of the wheels
struck some obstruction in. the alley
way, which jostled the instrument
somewhat, and in attempting to hold
it to its place It fell from the wagon,
wilh young Jones underneath its heavy
weight. 1 helinipand apparently life
less form of the unfortunate boy was
carried Into the hotel and physicians
summoned. I'pon examination, it was
soon discovered that he was beyond
medical aid. and died a few moments
later.
Soon after the accident Coroner
Pioeck empaneled a jury, consisting of
Oliver Dovey, Jno. Halt, John Cory,
II. S. liarthold, Win. Kroehler and
Wm. McCauley. The inquest washeld
Sunday morning at lo o'clock. The ev
idence showed that young Jones came
to his death in accordance with the
facts stated above. And the testi
mony also showed that he was neither
employed by Saltier & Fassliender or
he proprietors of the I 'amide theatre
to assist in removing the. piano, but
had gone with his own free will and
accord, which releases the responsibil
ity of any one for his death.
No one regrets the sad affair more
so than Mr. John Fassliender, who was
driving the team, and no one could
possibly have taken the sad alTair to
heart, even had the unfortunate young
man been a near and dear friend, than
Mr. Fassliender. The piano, which
weighed in the neighborhood of one
thousand pounds, was badly damaged
by the accident and was returned to
the store.
At the time of the accident the
mother of the unfortunate young man
was visiting with a daughter near Os
ceola, Iowa, and assoonastho sad news
reached her, started for home, arriving
Sunday morning. Mr. George Alrupt
and wife (the latter a sister of the de
ceased) also arrived Sunday morning
from Falls City to attend the funeral
The funeral services were held Moii
day afternoon at 2 o'clock, from the
family residence, Kcv. II. 1!. P.urgess

three miles southeast of Murray, on
Tuesday evening, March 1.1, lihil, oc
curred the very pretty wedding of Miss
Nellie Allison and Mr. John II. (J.llas-
enyager.of Tecumseh, Neb. It was In
deed a most beautiful wedding, the
ring ceremony being used.
The home was elaborately decorated
with all the ornaments customary on
such occasions, and the large residence
of Mr. and Mrs. Allison was tilled brim
full and running over with friends and
well wishers of the bride and the fam
ily. The bride - a lady of natural
beauty and exquisite tastes - when clad
in her wedding gown, as she stood by
the man she had selected for a hus
band, was perfectly lovely. Miss Alii
sou counted lie r friends by the score,
and vvaV a young lady of worth and
spotless character, and happy must be
the lot of him who now calls her wife.
The groom Wore the conventional
black, lb; is not much known In the
community, being a resident of Tecum
seh, Neb., but it is not too much to say
that he has the appearance of a true
and noble manhood, worthy of the
prize he secured.
The happy couple were literally load
ed down with presents,, in endless pro
fussion, but we have not secured a list
of them, which, if wc had, would till
nearly a column of the Journal.
Mr. and Mrs. Allison departed on the
late train on the M. I'. the same night
for Teciimscli, near which they will
begin housekeeping on a farm.
While Mr. and Mrs. James Allison
regret the departure from the scenes
of her childhood, of t heir loving, hand
some and accomplished daughter, tho
sincere wishes of the entire community
In which she was reared attend her and
husband for their future prosperity
and happiness. And the Journal joins
the hosts of friends In so doing.
Right You Are, Brother.
Cass county has as good a class of
newspapers as will bo found in th
slate, not, a bad one in the whob?
hunch, yet the hoys are troubled with
what medical science would term soft
ness of the brain. Cass county Is one
of the richest counties In the state and
is able and willing to pay the news
papers for the legal printing it lias to
do. but in their goodness of heart or
lack of good, business judgment-the
newspaper publishers annually fall
over each other in their mad rush to
put In a bid to do the printing at
starvation prices. What brainy men,
and yet what d-m fools. Louisville

No Entertainments In Churches.
According to the holding of the
state board of equalization, and the
attorney general, there can be no more
entertainments held in the churches
whcni an admission fee is charged
without the property is taxed, for tho
aw says that all church property from
which there is a revenue derived shall
be taxed. This will cause the holding
of church soclalsand entertainments In
places other than the church.
Careless Driving.
hast Mlurday as an old lady was
crossing tho street from the Ililey Ho
tel to the Coats corner, she just barely
escaped being run over by a delivery
team. This was a piece of carelessness
on the part of the driver, and If he had
run over her she would probably have
been killed or crippled for life. There
Is no sense indrivingatasuch a belter
ski Iter speed through the principle
streets, especially when crowded like
they were Saturday afternoon. Pe
destilans have some rights which
these reckless drivers are Jiouud to
respect, ami I ho sooner they lln 1 this
out the better it will be for all con
corned, if there Is tin ordinance pro
hibit Ing such reck less and careless driv
ing it would be In Uiler to pass one.
And If there Is one it should be rigidly
vnrnrccd.

The Fate of Great Mid.
I "ope, the poet, who bc&lde himself
with sleeplessness said he would
prefer death to such misery. Lord
Hyron suffered horribly with It, and
was in nctual despair, lloorlmave, tlm
physician, after one of his studies, did
not close his eyes for six weeks. Tlw
nerves were tired out, and with tlirm,
the whole body in the first plaeo the
stomach. As si Kin as the stomach re
fuses to work, there is no new blood
made, and the whole body collapses.
Trlner's American Kllxlr of Hitter
Wine, will give to the stomach tha
luvessaiy strength to accept and di
gest all food, because It rogulatos the
Mow of the gast rle Juice. Fortify your
stomach and purify and enrich your
blood w ith this great natural remedy.
This season calls for It. At drug;
