Fos9il Journal. This morning a serious accident oc ourred in front of the Umatilla House, in which Mrs. Glen Grater was con siderably bruised and her babe pretty seriously injured. Mr J and Mrs. Gra ter had arrived this morning from Des Moines, Iowa, and were preparing to take the stage to Antelope. The dri ver, Mr. 8oroggln, was loading the packages into the stage, and requested his passengers to keep out of the wagon until he was ready to start, but Mrs. Grater with the babe got into the back seat, and afterward a train going to the shops passed by. The horses broke away from the man who was holding them and. started to run, colliding with the rear end of the train at the comer of the Baldwin opera house, throwing Mrs. Garter out and catching the child between the wheels and the bed. Mrs. Garter was bruised somewhat about the bead, and the child, had one hip dislocated. The. stage was coosidera b y disabled davlng one wheel broken. The accident was one for which the stage people cannot be blamed, as the lady got into the stage in violation of their orders. For Hale.

Other sections of the state boast about producing big hogs, but they will all have to take off their hats to Wasco, for it has produced at least one hog that would make even Mark Han na blush with envy. It was raised by Wood Bros., at their slaughter bouse, and after being dressed, pulled down the scales to 810 pounds. This monster porker when butchered was only two years old, and had it been permitted to live to the age of the Ohio "states man" would probably have weighed well something , less than a million pounds. Wood Bros, also butchered three other shoats,tbat were 18 months old, and their combined weight was 1520 pounds. Now if any other county in the state can produce one hog that weighs dressed 810, or four that weighs 2330 pounds, the Timee-Mountrineer would like to hear from them. . A Splendid Publication. .

All acquaintances of Congressman Moody know of his fondness for dogs, and it is generally reputed that there is nothing which he more admires than a well trained hunter, but his friends here were not aware that a few days prior to his departure for Washington he attempted to deprive the editor of the Enterprise Bulletin of a highly treasured, lemon-colored cur. How ever the editor of that paper gives the coneressman away. He says: "Just before boarding the train . at Portland to come to Enterprise, we placed in the hands of the baggage master a thoroughbred lemon-colored pointer dog with instructions to glv him the best of care to La Grande, where we changed cars to Eigln. At the Dalles we were ruthlessly awak ened by one of the brakemen. who in formed us that a gentleman, accompan ied by some friends, was endeavoring to obtain our dog from the bageage master. We hurried forward and found the party te.lklng loudly and vehe meutly to the baggage-master and de manding that the dog be handed over to him. We endeavored to explain; but not until the dog recognized us as his master would the gentleman con sider the matter. At this point expla nation followed, and we learned that gentlemen had received information by telegram that a lemon-colored dog bad been sent to him that evening by Portland friends. We also learned that the gentleman was none other than Hon. Malcolm Moody, congress man from the second district; and right there it dawned upon us that our democratic friends In Portland, who had bid us adieu at the depot, had tele graphed the congressman that a dog of that description had been sent to him by his republican admirers of Mult nomah county.. The wine supper or dered by the congressman for nis friends, in honor of the occasion, was not relished as it would have been had the affair turned out differently. We are still wondering who the joke is on, the congressman, ourself or the dog." Do You Know Consumption is preventable? Science has proven that, and also that neglect is suicidal.

Stood Use That Mar Be Hade of OU Bits of Velvet, Feathers and Tulle. Here are a few half-eason toques that, with a little ingenuity, odd bit of 'velvet, tulle and feathers, can be made at home, over well-shaped wire frames. A fascinating orrangemen't in mouse-colored velvet, all wrinkled hori zontally and resting against the hair. is crossed in front by a loosely drape knot in light gray satin. The height of the knot, which puffs up above the vel vet folds in front, holds down two stuffed guinea fowl feathers that circle flatly back over the smooth velvet crown. It is an- exceedingly pretty de I made jw,, - J ;g. aa mT beimainnesL . w " o very easily executed. Another coquettish little headdress ' is of pansy blue velvet, drawn- to the ! front in two sharp reveres. Over the ! flaring back reveres is a high-lifted, ir- ! pe6"nIar bow, knotted from a bias piece of lavender taffeta, the tenter of the knot being a twist of pansy blue velvet. Two fancy pearl hatpins, with filigree mounting, are stuck jauntily in- the front of the bow. The arrangement of the pins is nail-fashion, as though they served to tack the bow to the bonnet. An outline and twist about the small body of the toque are made of a fine ruching of lavender mousseline de sole. Matching a street gown, out of tie cloth of which it is made, is a poppy- red toque, artfully draped and raised at the left side with a knot of velvet pop pies, watn seedy black centers. Above the popples is an aggressive spreading of four lively red wings. An ornament of cut jet is allowed to show vaguely among the poppies. Black tulle is ef fectively combined on a toque frame with a rolling twist of black velvet The tulle has an added charm if it be first jet-spangled. The crown is filled In with loosely folded tulle, while a wide rope twist of velvet forms the rim. The roll is broken near the front by a subtly wound knot of tulle that forms a base for short jetted aigrettes. Behind the aigrettes are airy loops of tulle that are given a crisp appearance by being invisibly wired. ' Circular flats of soft felt are easily dTaped and twisted into artistic toques. Fine violet colored1 felt is effectively used in a prettily crushed toque, orna mented at the left side with an enor mous knot of very pale "Parma violet" velvet, into which two violet colored quills sprinkled with jet are stuck at angles. The center of the knot is a jeweled ornament.' At the back two round bunches of violets rest against the hair. . Strikingly odd is a toque mado en tirely of ostrich tips and plumes. The foundation is a little flat, covered with short, curly ostrich trimming. Around the crown are dozens of tiny curled1 tips. This roll of tips curves down in front and up high at the side over a cabbage rosette of turquoise blue vel vet, centered on a pearl ornament. Back from the rosette a single long black plume curves gracefully, resting half against the hair.

There' has already beeu one death from the disease in that town, and Mr. Gilmore said there were at least a half a dozen other cases reported. Wasco has been quarantined against Moro, and the authorities of the latter place have taken every possible precaution to prevent the spread of the disease, but it has taken such a start that it will be difficult to prevent a general con tagion. One of the county commis sioners of Sherman county telephoned toe Judge Bradshaw yesterday that there were 24 cases of smallpox in Moro, but Mr. Gilmore thinks he has overestimated the number.

Baldwin Passes to the Be yoid. - The death of Julius C. Baldwin oo cured at his home in this city at 11:45 Sunday night, after a brief illness of only a few days. In the death of Mr. Baldwin another of the men who were prominent in the history of Oregon. Born in Wayland, Mass., on May 21, 1830 , he acquired a business education in his native state, but being energetic to build for himself a fortune In the then almost unknown West, migrated to California in 1851. He found employment in a large mer cantile house In San Francisco, remain ing until '66, then went to Portland, where he worked fora year, removing from there to The Dalles In '57 and engaged in the mercantile business with his brother Frank, under the firm name of Balbwln -Bros., which firm soon become well known in business circles throughout the Northwest, they having, besides their store here, exten sive establishments at Walla Walla and Lewistoo. In all of these places their business flourished, and they were at one time one of the leading mercan tile firms in tne upper country. In 1874 Mr. Baldwin closed up most of bis business interests here and returned to bis birthplace where in June of that year "he was married to Miss Elen D mon. They came to California to reside, while Mr Baldwin continued his business at Lewistoo and Walla Walla until 1879. In 1883 with his family he again came to The Dalles and has made this his hooie ever since, a portion of the time being engaged in merchandising, but of late years has not been in any active business. To Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin were born five children, only two of whom are living Edward D. and Martha K. Besides his wife and two children, he eaves one brother and a nephew and niece residing in Walla Walla. During his business career Mr. Bald win was an energetic public spirited man, taking a deep interest in educa tional affairs, and though not a mem' ber of aoy church institutions, he gave them both his moral and financial sup port. He was a member of the Oregon Pioneer Association, and thouph his death another honored one is stricken from its roster. . The funeral waa conducted from the family residence at 2 o'clock this after noon, Rov. D. V. Poling reading the Congregational burial service and de livered a brief address. "FRONT" Hf WASHINGTON. Hotel Hall Boya with. Momwowfal : i Ctall Who Kxpeet the Omenta to Do Fart of Their wore i The colored "front" of the Washing ton hotel is like no other hotel hall boy, white or black, in the United States. He doesn't hesitate to ask the guests to do part of his work. Old stagers at these hotels do not appear to think it strange, but folks accustomed to hotels in other parts of the country are at first rather surprised at the requests made of them by tho colored "front" of the Washing ton hotels. This is the style of it: . "Goin to your room, sir?" ask "front" with card and tray as a guest is about to step into the elevator, "Yes." And then "front," handing the card, says "Will yon tap on Mr. Honeycomb's door and tell him this gemman is down stairs and wants to see him?" - Your room is 61, and "front" known it, and he also knows that Mr. Honey comb's room is 60, and to save himself a trip upstairs hell bother you to tap at a strange man's room and deliver the message. . Or it is: "D'ye know, sir, if Mr. Bul leyt on is in his room? You've just come down, sir, and there's a gemman here wants to see him." Sometimes it is: "Will yon, please, sir, drop this letter into Mr. Finnigan's room?" Andcit goes. The northerner at first is a bit taken aback, but he soon becomes accustomed to the situation and grins at the audaci ty of the request Others tell the col ored "front" to go to the devil, and so on. The colored "front" doesn't mean any disrespect. It is only his way of trying to shuffle his workn to others. ON A TOMBSTONE.

"It was years ago, when 'Boot Hill,' the cemetery where men who fell witb their boots aa were buried, was in the height of its glory and waa growing rapidly. We' I. to make a long story short, one of the wearers of long boots, revolvers, and bowie knives was killed one day, and as in all such cases he was promptly buried.

It waa a Brooklyn widow who, on be ing ehlded for adding her diamond solt taire earrings to the details of her sable traoninirs of woe, justified herself by aaying that they were the very conden sation of grief-crystallized tears. It bas been the fortune of another be reaved resident of the town of sepul chred popularity, saya the New York Sun, to attain an elegiac fame accom plished by few if any of her sex. Those in the vicinity who have recently bad the misfortune to have a death in thair familes have been made the recipients of the following circular mailed them with timely enterprise by a woman who owns a marble yard near one of Brook lyn's best-known cemeteries: "I beg leave to inform yon that If ytm Intend or have concluded to purchase a monument or tombstone for your plot, that I have a large assortment of tba same, of the finest and latest designs to suit ell tastes. Owing .to the death of my beloved husband, necessity compels me under the present circumstances to dispose of some of my stock at a sacrifice, thus offering you at the same time an opportunity which yon will seldom meet again In purcbaalnr a monument or tombstone at a very low figure. I therefore kindly Invite yon to favor me with a call and examine my stook, as It Is no trouble to show It. "Hoping you will give the matter else consideration, and realise my position, X remain, respectfully yours.

"I'm tired enough to go to bed by the time breakfast is over. Do you suppose I am catching laziness? It's in the air. By the supreme effort I mean my cabinet dinner, the last one of this season, and the first state affair to follow Lent and Easter. There is no set time nor rule governing these din ners. This year the cabinet ladies got together and decided , to divide the honor equally among them, half of our number entertaining each year, conse quently I will only give two cabinet dinners during the administration. Everything went off "smoothly owing to Lent and a good caterer. The truth is, Lyde, the servant make or mar an administration.
