We are informed by a gentleman who has canvassed the subject thoroughly that nearly all our farmers have seed wheat and have it sown. The case on trial in the circuit court is Pea body vs. O. R & N. Co.. a suit for damages. It appears that Feabody was put on the tram and was injured thereby, for which be desires to recover damages. The Walla Walla Journal says: "The Dalles authorities stopped a thread-mil- l sawing machine on Thursday.'' New kind of a mill. Brother Besserer what is the color of it, and does it intoxicate if taken in large quantities. We received from Hon. F. A. McDonald, register of the land office in this city, new sectional map of Oregon. It is very complete in every particular, and the regis- ter informs us that he has a few for general distribution. W. W, Journal: Fiiday morning a little four-year-o- boy, by tne name ot lorn my Allen, while playing in a vacant lot near the Exchange Hotel, found a cartridge which he pounded with a rock, causing it to ex- plode which tore the boy's hand in a terri ble manner, but his little curiosity is now perfectly satisfied. Attorian: Last Friday night at Ilwaco, while a ball was in progress to celebiate the admission of the state of Washington, a young man named Ross fired a shot at Miss Ella Markham, a well known young lady of Ilwaco. The ball struck the floor,-whic- was waxed, vxd glanced, going into the wall. Ross was immediately arrested and handcuffs placed on him. An attempt was made to lynch Ross, but on account of the presence of sheriff Turner, who fought for his prisoner, it was frustrated, and the law will be allowed to take its course. The cause of the shooting was jealousy. Fossil Journal: The wedding of Miss Laura Clarno to Kennetb F. McDonald, mention of which was made last week, took place on the 6th of November as announced, except that the ceremony was had at the old farm mansion of Andrew Clarno, father of the bride, now occupied by Frank Ma- - lone, near Crown Rock. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. O. Benadom, pastor of the M. E. church of Fossil, in the pres- ence of the relatives of the parties and a number of invited guests, and is reported as being pleasant anair. Prineville Newt: Upon ihn boundaries of the Warm Spring reservation, Oregon, commissioner of Indian affairs. Morean. says that the question of the disputed lo- cation of the northern boundary of the reservation, to which reference was made in the last aDnusl report, was finally de termined Dytlie department July l, 1889, by the adoption of the line as surveyed by John A. McQuinn, in 1887, this being the line insisted upon by the Indians, as be ing in accordance with the provisions of their treaty. Directions have been eiven tor the survey of the western boundary of the reservation. The Baker City Reveille, In commenting on the article in this paper urging the sinking of an artesian well, says: "We would suggest that if The Dalles ever gets a supply of good water, she must do as Baker City did, get in and drill. Our water supply wss for years a vexed ques- tion, and it surprised us to see how easy it was settled after the first stroke was made with a pick. Like the rock-boun- d fountain that responded to the touch of the rod in the hand of Moses, the bills that overlook our city gave freely of their pent up store and forever settled, the cry of Baker City for pure drinking water." Astorian: James Thompson, a well known resident of this city, was drowned from off the steamer R. R. Thompson, this side of Westport. at 2:40 yesterday afternoon. The steamer had left IKeatport on her way down, and was near the month of the slough. Thompson was last seen on the lower deck, and was not seen to fall in the water. Suddenly Messrs. Smith, Anstin-se- n, and other Astoria passengers saw him as he rose to the surface, astern of the boat. The boat was immediately stopped, a small boat lowered, but when within about a hundred feet of the unfortunate man, who was miking desperate efforts to reach the boat, he sank, and was seen no more.

Astoria is considering the proposition of an electric railway. Hon. it. Uuatiu, of Goldendalo, gave ns a pleasant call yesterday. Sam Zar, a fisherman in Astoria aged about 50 years, died suddenly Tuesday afternoon. The construction of the jetty has very materially improved the bar at the mouth of the Columbia river. The missing girl Bnrligfa, who left Pen dleton several days ago, was last heard from at romeroy. She was sent to Walla W alia. McMinnville has everything in readiness for the electric light system and new water works. ' The city will have an electros mo tor soon. .11:45 There are so many "best" papers pub lished in Eastern Oregon that it is a very difficult matter for readers to decide which is better than the other. Geese are reported very plentiful in the neighborhood of this city, and our local nimrods are such poor shots that wild game enjoy a perfect immunity from barm. ' Jared Musser, a young man who was out hunting Tuesday evening near Salem, acci dentally had the contents of bis gun dis- charged in his right hand, necessitating the amputation of three nmrers. The sidewalk, leading from the steps on Court street to residences on the bluff. shonld receive immediate attention. It is in a dilapidated condition, and an accident may occur at any time which will cost the city or property -- owners heavily. The citizens of La Grande have raised the subsidy asked by the O. R. N. Co. to secure the building of a railroad from that place to Elgin, and it now remains for the railroad company to carry out its contract and go to work in the next few days. The Albany Herald reports that Mormon missionaries are proselying in that section of Oregon and warns all immigrants to be- ware of them. The new colony the Mor- mons are seeking settlers for is said to be in Mexico. Friday was the thirty-eight- h anniversary of the founding of the city of Seattle. Ar- thur D.

Some time ago a man wanted to get a lot in Spokane Falls, to build a house to start a business in. The owner asked him 21,-00- 0. "Do yon want to freeze me out? to keep me from getting in here?" he asked Ibat s what it is worth, was the answer. He bought the lot, intending to build on it, later on. List week he sold it lor $65,000. Now be is looking for another lot. Pendleton Tribune: Two trains on the U. K. & N. railway remained side-track- a few miles apart for four hours the other day. The conductors did not understand the orders of the and a serious delay was the result. An investiga- tion of the affair, which occurred east of Huntington, resulted in both conductors beinar laid off for a time. The ladies of the Congregational church are preparing an entertainment tor those who enjoy songs, choruses, reading, tab- leaux, and "wax figgers" for Thanksgiving night. The proceeds of the evening are to be applied to the discharge of indebtedness for which the ladies are responsible in aid of their church work. They hope they will be cheered witn a lull bouse. The Swiss residents of Portland gave an entertainment and ball in Turner hall last Monday evening under the auspices of the Portland Grutliver, which was largely att- ended, the occasion being the 5S2J anni versary of the independence of Switzerland. The ball was densely crowded and the evening was passed in music, instrumental and vocal, and interesting addresses by members of the society. W. W. Union: On Monday afternoon, accidentally a block of wood, 6x8 inches in size, was dropped by one of the carpenters at work on the tower of the new Paine school building. The block fell to the ground, where it struck a stone mason on the head, cutting an ngly sash in the right side of the scalp above the ear The stone mason was knocked flat and when be got np with his head all bleeding, there was the maddest man ever seen in Walla Walla. We have received Vol. I . No. 1 of tl Pendleton Daily Tribune, a very able edited and neatly printed paper, tve wish it success in its enterprise. Pendle ton, with about half the population of "l'he Dalles and not nearly as many natural re- sources, displays a great deal more enter- prise in the generous support it gives two dailies than this city does in the meagre patronage it accords to one. And, by the way, Umatilla county lost fully $1,500,000 by the drouth this season. A free-tig- occurred in a saloon in El- - lensburgh last Sunday, which eventually "painted the town red." Men were stabbed, some had their ears bitten off, and others are badly bruised. The names of the in jured are Duncan McCormic. John McCor- - mic, Kd bmmerson and David Carrol. Ihe last named is confined to bis bed with nu merous cuts and bruises, and the others are badly stabbed in different places, while Duncan McCormic had the top of his ear bitten off by a belligerent negro.

A middle-age- d man, dark complexioned, was seen to totter and fall fiom the bridge leading to the company s shops this after noon soon after 3o clock. A few minutes before he was talking with a man in the Columbia Hotel and said he was tired of life and wanted to end his existence. He was brought to the marshal's office shortly after 4 o clock, and his heart fluttered i little and ceased beating. He was in toxicated wben talking to the man in the hotel, and is supposed to have been partially demented. Last night he beat his way in on a freight train from Wash ington, but no one knew his name.

"Astoria is the most orderly and peaceable city on the Pacific coast." The fair to be given by the ladies of the Episcopal church will be held Dec. 4th aud 5th in the new armory. The number of articles to be sold on this occasion are really too numerous to be mentioned in these col- umns, and comprehends almost every use- ful article that is necessary to housekeeping. The Astorian says: "The Astorian has one thousand dollars that says it has the largest circulation of any newspaper pub- lished on the Columbia river. We will raise yon a couple of thousand. Vancouver Reqitser. We will increase tha pot three thousand, and dare any one to call the hand. Do yon pass? Mr. W. H. Staats, a son of the late John G. Staats, cf Dufur, gave ns a pleasant call this morning. He reports everything favor able for crops. The ground is in excellent condition for plowing, and farmers have been quite busy putting in all the grain possible. Seed wheat, he says, is scarce, and a large quantity is needed in his Baker Democrat: The west-boun- d Pacific Express ran off the track near the entrance of the tunnel two miles from Union Tues- day night and was not gotten oat of its predicament until late yesterday morning. Fortunately no one waa hurt. This was a poor starter for the fast mail train across the continent and gives room to the balief that some serious accident will yet oc nr. Concerning the reported killing of John Grab, at Weiser City a short time ago. the Leader aays: "Mr. John Grab is at present well, hearty and fat, and is able to tuke his three meals a day with perfct ease and com fort. There bas been no ro or trouble here of any kind since the soldiers visited the town, and we do not know a single gam- bler being here since that time.

ACCWEXTAL DEATH. An Unknown Han Under the lnfla- - enee or Uqnor Falla Frsn the Bailroad Bridge a Distance or Thirty Feet and is Killed Almost Instantly. From Friday's Dal J An inquest was held last evening on the remains of the man who waa killed yester- - day afternoon by falling from the railroad bridge. Several witnesses were examined, but no one was found who identified the deceased. R. B. Moore, an O. R. & N. brakeman, testified to haying seen the deceased Wednesday at Umatilla J unction, tand at The Dalles yesterday morning. He saw him crawl out of a box car at the freight depot, and last saw him under the influence of liquor on the corner of Second and Washington. M. O'Sbea testified to having seen him about a year ago, and was with him about two days off and on, but did not know bis Talked with him at the Columbia Hotel yesterday sbout religion. He said he believed there was a heaven and a hell, and said be thought he would go to hell. Said he was going to take a walk to cool off was going to walk down towards the bridge, and he was told not to walk down in that direction that he might get killed. Still he said he would go. In about 20 minutes O'Sbea was standing on the corner and saw him walking up the bridge and he was staggering, and he soon disappeared. He went down and was informed by others that there waa a On being questioned. O'Shea said the man told hiin he was from Michigan, and had been oat in this country about a month. Fen JaUy testified to naving seen me man at the Uolumbia notei, ana mat ne was talking on religion. Said his greatest trouble was, how to get out of this world. and that he did not expect to leave this town alive. He told him that he bad been twic- - out of this world and returned. In abou' half an hour Batty saw men running towards railroad bridge. He was under in fluence of liquor when talking to Batty. K T?. Hood, jr.. said the first time he say deceased was on the bridge leading to the company's shops. Happened to look di again aud saw bim fall from the bridge. He lell from 30 to 35 feet. te-- tr tl stopped nis nd looked down and saw bim lying There were two other gentlemen on ze when hesaw him, and he told them ,.- - U(i look after him. Then went and i r. iie marshal anil took him np to this He was nearly dead when we got to here was no locomotive or train him when he fell. . .tner saw the man at the Colombia Hotel yesterday. Was talking to Mr. O'Shea, and went down to tbe round bouse about 4 o'clock. Fifteen minutes after- wards saw bim at the turn-tabl- e, and then passed him about half way between the Columbia Hotel and round house. Met Chinaman on the bridge, talked to him about fifteen minutes. The man passed him then, and was ahead about 500 yards. He saw him stagger, catch bis loot on a plank and fall, and at the same" time he tried to catch the telegraph wire. He fell about 30 feet on a pile of rocks. Was not quite dead when he got to him. . Dij. Hollister said death was caused by concussion of the brain, brought on by the fall. T. F. Jones was at the Columbia Hotel on tbe side porch, looking down towards the bridge. Saw the man coming np from the company's shops, and as he walked along he looked over, and placed his hands on the railing and seemed to drop over. tell about 3U feet on a pile ot rocks, it was about 4 o'clock. The following is the verdict of the Jury: W e, the undersigned jurors, empanelled by Coroner Michell, of Wasco county, Ore gon, on Thursday, .November zlat, iscw, to investigate the cause of the death of an un known man wbo lell trom tbe bridge ot tne O. R. & N. Co., after hearing the evidence ot the case, we agree that deceased came to bis death by accidentally tailing on tne bridge while under the influence of liqner. D. Hekotix, W. R. Hansell, A. L. Websteh, J. N. Lac KB, Jorx Walker, H. L. Heezingkb. I tema from tbe Lock. Cascade Locks, Nov. 18, 1889. Editor A few items from this section may not be out of place, and I will try and furnish them. One of the most cruel murders ever per petrated was committed about nine miles below here some days ago. A man named Lewis Marr lived all alone in Washington about four miles below tbe Cascades. He was a man of some means, and somewhat o ld in bis manners, but one that every neighbor liked, and to whom the needy never appealed in yain. A few days ago some of the neighbors missed him and com menced a search, finally finding him in his pasture, shot through the body with a bullet, and in the arm and breast with buck shot. His head was badly cut and mangled with a heavy instrument, apparently an iron bar. What the object of the murder- ers waa no one can tell, as there did not appear to be anything disturbed about the house. There was tonnd on the body $69 and $60 in the house. Nothing is missed except a revolver and some cartridges, so far as known at present. Who committed tbe deed no one appears to. know, and the coroner's jury are trying to unravel the mystery at present. There are no items ot importance .except the one mentioned. H'ork on the locks will clone this month, and it is thought times will be very dull here. But I think it will not make much difference, as Reed, Peal, Hersey and the other Norwegians never' spend any money here, and the citizens can live just as well without them. I bear the wish expressed every day that the trio will never be 'owed to return. But that dees not make much difference, as if they did not come back, others just as bad wonld take their places. If we get an ap- propriation it is very strange that govern- ment will pet mi t such men to control the works. It is currently reported here that Reed gets $5 per month from all of those Norwegians who are employed on the works, and that Hersey furnishes his fam- ily with grub for running them into the mess house. I notice all those who board outside are the first to be discharged. Not one of those wbo are reported to pay Reed $5 a month have been discharged; yet I do not know the truth of these reports; but they look to be founded in fact. We are having a large increase in popula- tion. Mrs. Jordan bas a fine boy; also Mrs. Nelson. Mrs. McKinnon gave birth to a daughter. Last but not least, Alex OToole's dogs are still on deck, and Dannie and Barney will hold the fort for some time to come. Mr, Geo. Gardner has gone to Spokane Falls. Tbe fishermen held a jubilee last night, and were addressed by Judge Halt, Prof. McLnney, Hon. Alex. O'Toole sad others. Mr. Ash and his lady are enjoying the honey-moo- n in splendid style. Mr. P. Moron and wife Are happy as larks. Lark Russell, Bob. Aldndge and Charlie Zettick are all convalescent. Mrs. Andrews is still residing in Port- land. Mr. Stokes is operator on the telegraph. Walter Fraine is visiting his uncle. Agent Clark has a namesake. Dr. Candan is still iulAtnerica. Old Doc. and Geo. Gray look poorly. Reporter. Cii:d Ji 17 Ktptrt.

To the Eon. circuit court of said county and state: H'e the grand jury for said coun- ty and state, sworn and instructed on tbe Uth day of Noyember, 1SS9, would report that we have been in session for five days during which time we have investigated all cases reported to us where parties were held to answer by magistrates of the oounty, as well as complaints properly made to as, and as tbe result cf our investigations have found and returned into court three true bills of indictment and two not true bills. H'e bave examined the books and offices of tbe county clerk, treasurer and sheriff snd fiud them neatly kept and conveniently arranged and the accounts thereof to the best of our knowledge correct. ye recommend that a new cement floor be made in tbe vault of the clerk's office. We would also recommend that the jailer's room of the county jail be taken oat and a" steel cell pat in its place in order to make the iail safe and secure. And recommend specially that the jail sewer be ro paired and put into proper shape, and that the outside of the court house be finished with cement. We have examined the county poor farm and find everything in connection therewith neatly and properly kept, and found only two inmates, who were comfortably and properly cared for. Having no further business demanding our attention we therefore ask to be dis- charged- C. C. Hobakt. Foreman of the grand jury. Dated Nov. 15, 18S9. Hissing Two JHonths About two months sgo, so we are in- formed, a young man named Gordon, living a few miles from this city, left bis mother's farm driving a band of horses to the Wil- lamette valley over tbe Cascade mountains, the proceeds of which he intended to to a coarse of study at tne Business college in Portland. His mother packed his trunk, and sent it to his address in Portland. Nothing has been heard from him and the trunk has not been called for. The mother is wild with grief, and cannot conjecture what has become of her darling bov, whether he bas been murdered or per ished in the mountains. All inquiries she has made bas elicited no reply, and the un- certainty of his fate is worse than it she knew he was dead. Every effort hss been made to know whether be has arrived at his destination, bat the latest information she has is wben young Gordon left the last set- tlement before he entered the mountains. It may have been that after journeying in the mountains the horses strayed and he may haye perished in the canyons, or he may have reached the settlement, disposed of his animals, and was then murdered for the money in bis possession. Another Hissing Man. Astoria Pioneer. Another man has dropped oat of public sight suddenly and Chief- - of Police Barry and bis officers are trying to learn what bas become of him. This time it is an old man named J. Bennett, who arrived in this city a week ago last night, and pnt np at the Astor house. He appeared to have plenty of money and told Mr. Warren, the chief clerk, that he was a stock grower and had a large stock farm near Ellenaburgh, with some 500 head of cattle on it. He came to Astoria, he said for a visit only, and in tended putting in two or three weeks here. He left (200 in the hotel safe, and np to Sunday night, when he was last seen, he drew out ail except $86. On that night he took the $S5 and went out. Since then no trace of bim bas been found, and his bag- gage ia still at the hotel. From what can be learned, Bennett put in the whole of Saturday night in the lojrer end of tbe city, playing cards for money. He lost considerable, it would seem, as he made a remark to that effect to the night clerk of the hotel when he went there about 6 o'clock Sunday morning. Tbe missing man is described as heavy set, about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches in bight, ruddy complexion, black hair aud smooth shaven, with the exception of short, iron- - gray whiskers, growing under the chin. He is about 60 years of age and wore a dark blue suit. Tbe Htory of W. W. Journal This morning the court resumed the case of Tbe defendant's story of the killing of Ah Kow is substantially as fol- lows: "Ah Kow owed me 20, which about three days previous to the tragedy I asked him for, and he said, if I would come in three days, he would pay me. When I called on Ah Kow on the appointed day, be was chopping wood, and when I asked him for the money he was mad and aaid he would chop me with the axe; he said that he had the money, bnt that he would not pay me. Then I threatened to sue him, whereupon he drew a pistol from his pocket and taking from it a cloth in which it was wrapped he prepared to shoot me. I then grabbed Ah Kow's hand and the pistol fell to the ground going off as it fell. Picking up the pistol I ran 60 or 70 feet; Ah Kow following me with a knife in his hand. When Ah Kow came np I grabbed hold of his hand which held the knife and in hia endeavors to free himself he probably waa cut. Then breaking loose from him I ran around a brush heap; Ah Kow following and I fired three or four times at him, when he fell. Then I threw away the pistol and came down town and gave myself up.

fountain that responded to the touch ofthe rod in the hand of Moses, the billsthat overlook our city gave freely of theirpent up store and forever settled, the cryof Baker City for pure drinking water."

I tema from tbe Lock.Cascade Locks, Nov. 18, 1889.

EditorA few items from this section may not be

out of place, and I will try and furnishthem.

One of the most cruel murders ever perpetrated was committed about nine milesbelow here some days ago. A man namedLewis Marr lived all alone in Washingtonabout four miles below tbe Cascades. Hewas a man of some means, and somewhato ld in bis manners, but one that everyneighbor liked, and to whom the needynever appealed in yain. A few days agosome of the neighbors missed him and com

menced a search, finally finding him in hispasture, shot through the body with abullet, and in the arm and breast with buckshot. His head was badly cut and mangledwith a heavy instrument, apparently aniron bar. What the object of the murder-

ers waa no one can tell, as there did notappear to be anything disturbed about thehouse. There was tonnd on the body $69and $60 in the house. Nothing is missedexcept a revolver and some cartridges, sofar as known at present. Who committedtbe deed no one appears to. know, and thecoroner's jury are trying to unravel themystery at present.

There are no items ot importance .exceptthe one mentioned. H'ork on the locks willclone this month, and it is thought timeswill be very dull here. But I think it willnot make much difference, as Reed, Peal,Hersey and the other Norwegians never'spend any money here, and the citizens canlive just as well without them. I bear thewish expressed every day that the trio willnever be 'owed to return. But thatdees not make much difference, as if theydid not come back, others just as badwonld take their places. If we get an ap-propriation it is very strange that govern-ment will pet mi t such men to control theworks. It is currently reported here thatReed gets $5 per month from all of thoseNorwegians who are employed on theworks, and that Hersey furnishes his fam-ily with grub for running them into themess house. I notice all those who boardoutside are the first to be discharged. Notone of those wbo are reported to pay Reed$5 a month have been discharged; yet Ido not know the truth of these reports; butthey look to be founded in fact.

We are having a large increase in popula-tion. Mrs. Jordan bas a fine boy; alsoMrs. Nelson. Mrs. McKinnon gave birthto a daughter. Last but not least, AlexOToole's dogs are still on deck, and Dannieand Barney will hold the fort for some timeto come.

To the Eon. circuit court of said countyand state: H'e the grand jury for said coun-

ty and state, sworn and instructed on tbeUth day of Noyember, 1SS9, would reportthat we have been in session for five daysduring which time we have investigated allcases reported to us where parties were heldto answer by magistrates of the oounty, aswell as complaints properly made to as,and as tbe result cf our investigations havefound and returned into court three truebills of indictment and two not true bills.

H'e bave examined the books and offices

of tbe county clerk, treasurer and sheriff

snd fiud them neatly kept and convenientlyarranged and the accounts thereof to thebest of our knowledge correct.

ye recommend that a new cement floorbe made in tbe vault of the clerk's office.We would also recommend that the jailer'sroom of the county jail be taken oat and a"steel cell pat in its place in order to makethe iail safe and secure. And recommend

specially that the jail sewer be ro paired andput into proper shape, and that the outsideof the court house be finished with cement.

We have examined the county poor farmand find everything in connection therewithneatly and properly kept, and found onlytwo inmates, who were comfortably andproperly cared for.

Having no further business demandingour attention we therefore ask to be dis-charged- C. C. Hobakt.

Hissing Two JHonthsAbout two months sgo, so we are in-

formed, a young man named Gordon, livinga few miles from this city, left bis mother'sfarm driving a band of horses to the Wil-

lamette valley over tbe Cascade mountains,the proceeds of which he intended to

to a coarse of study at tne Businesscollege in Portland. His mother packedhis trunk, and sent it to his address inPortland. Nothing has been heard fromhim and the trunk has not been called for.The mother is wild with grief, and cannotconjecture what has become of her darlingbov, whether he bas been murdered or perished in the mountains. All inquiries shehas made bas elicited no reply, and the un-

certainty of his fate is worse than it sheknew he was dead. Every effort hss beenmade to know whether be has arrived at hisdestination, bat the latest information shehas is wben young Gordon left the last set-tlement before he entered the mountains.It may have been that after journeying inthe mountains the horses strayed and hemay haye perished in the canyons, or hemay have reached the settlement, disposedof his animals, and was then murdered forthe money in bis possession.

Another Hissing Man.Astoria Pioneer.

Another man has dropped oat of publicsight suddenly and Chief- - of Police Barryand bis officers are trying to learn what basbecome of him. This time it is an old mannamed J.

Tbe Htory ofW. W. Journal

This morning the court resumed the caseof Tbe defendant's story of thekilling of Ah Kow is substantially as fol-

lows: "Ah Kow owed me 20, which aboutthree days previous to the tragedy I askedhim for, and he said, if I would come inthree days, he would pay me. When Icalled on Ah Kow on the appointed day, bewas chopping wood, and when I asked himfor the money he was mad and aaid hewould chop me with the axe; he said thathe had the money, bnt that he would notpay me. Then I threatened to sue him,whereupon he drew a pistol from his pocketand taking from it a cloth in which it waswrapped he prepared to shoot me. I thengrabbed Ah Kow's hand and the pistol fellto the ground going off as it fell. Pickingup the pistol I ran 60 or 70 feet; Ah Kowfollowing me with a knife in his hand.When Ah Kow came np I grabbed hold ofhis hand which held the knife and in hiaendeavors to free himself he probably waacut. Then breaking loose from him I ranaround a brush heap; Ah Kow followingand I fired three or four times at him, whenhe fell. Then I threw away the pistol andcame down town and gave myself up.
