m Witt gmljj twfem. ASTOBIA. OEEGON: ERIDAY. .NOVEMBER 22. 18S9. Miss Jennie Flood, the daughter of the bonanza king, is the richest Tin married woman in California. Here's a Flood -who, -wooed and won by some young man, would lead on to fortune. A clebgxman out in Manitoba ad vocates dancing as a healthy and in vigorating and wholly innocent exer cise. He declares, however, that the best time to engage in it is before breakfast. The commissioner of the Indian bu reau says that the reservation system must be broken up and the Indian become a citizen. It is feared that the Indian can never become anything better than a hard citizen. If the English syndicates are anxious to find something into 'which they can put capital without stint, they should not neglect the plant of Panama Canal company, which the liquidator of that concern is anxious to dispose of. In certain districts of Washington the street numbers are badly mixed up. It is said that when the colored people move, as they frequently do, they generally take the door number with them, and put it on their n( home. Senatob Squire, of "Washington has declared that he will work and vote for the improvement of the Co lumbia river. Good. In the senators of our sister state we shall have a powerful aid in this great and neces sary work. The Argentine Republic has issued a proclamation offering for sale 15, 360 acres of land at the rate of 80 cents an acre. It is intended to apply the proceeds of the sale to the redemp tion of a portion of the Republic's depreciated paper currency. OcOASiONAiiiiY, when the train ar rives at Bostwick, Fla., a nice looking young man jumps off and kisses the best looking girl at the depot, suppos ing her to be his sister. He apolo gizes so nicely that the girls are be ginning to look for him regularly. A Russian paper notes the termina tion recently of a lawsuit begun in 1490, or four centuries ago. The liti gation was over a forty-acre tract of uncultivated land, has been handed down through numberless generations, and, curiously enough, has been final ly settled by peaceful arbitration. A few months ago a London club advertised for a secretary. Six hun dred candidates applied. The lists in cluded graduates of Oxford and Cam bridge, barristers, doctors, schoolmas ters, solicitors, architects, and a whole regiment made up from all arms of her Majesty's military and naval forces. As an instance of the quick way in which some things are done nowa days, it is told that in a late divorce trial in Maine, at the moment when the judge was decreeing the divorce, the clerk held in his hand a telegram from the libelee asking to be informed as soon as her husband obtained his divorce, as she and another man were waiting to be married as soon as it could legally be done. Anthony Joseph, New Mexico's delegate to congress, in an interview says, that immediately upon the as sembling of congress in December he proposes to introduce an enabling act for the admission of New Mexico. He adds: "It has already been tacitly understood between the delegates in congress from the territories of "Wy oming, Idaho, Arizona and New Mex ico, hat an ominbus bill for these territories shall be earnestly pushed forward. The most prominent mem bers of congress are with us, and have pledged themselves. I think New Mexico's chances are exceedingly good. . There is no immediate danger of the United States becoming over crowded, for Joseph Nimmo, jr., shows in Frank Leslie's paper that since in dependence was achieved the United States government has been the larg est owner of arable land on the earth. The total area of the "public domain," sold and unsold, amounts to 1,819,072, 587 acres and constitutes 72 per cent of the total area of the United States, including Alaska. About 700,000,000 acres of land have been sold and do nated, about 1,150,000,000 acres re main unsold. As the area of Alaska is 369,530,000 acres, the area unsold ex elusive of that territory is about 780, 000,000 acres. The dangerous accident to the Am phion, the finest vessel in the large British squadron, seems to show one thine: verv conclusively, and that is that the rule3of the service compelling officers of war ships to pilot their own vessels in inland waters ought to be changed. Had there been a pilot on board thoroughly familiar with the winding "passages through the maze of islands, the violent tide rips or whirlpools, and the other things which render navigation between Victoria and Vancouver excessively dangerous in time of fog, the lives of the governor general, Lord Stanley, and his party would not have been endangered, and the commander of theAmpMon would not have been unhappy to-day.

New Yobk, Nov. 2L Fire was dis covered in the tower of the Western Union building, above tho associated press office at 3:40 and at 4 o'clock the flames were gaining headway and not a drop of water had been got on the flames. The fireman dragged a line of hose into the associated press windows on the ninth floor. Three times the hose broke while being hauled up. At 430 o'clock the fire men succeeded in getting a couple of streams turned upon the fire, but it was a stubborn one. At 530 the fire was gotten under control, and rushing streams of water supplemented the damage done by smoke and flame. The damage to the Western Union building by the fire will amount to only 5,000, and to stock, $1,000. PB0GBES3 OF THE OBONIN TBIAIi. Chicago, Nov. 21. In the Cronin case to-day Patrick Denan, owner of the white horse which drew Cronin to the Carlson cottage, testified. The horse is now in a dime museum. Louis Budenbender, of Hoboken, N. J., who lived in Chicago at the time of Cronin's death, testified that he saw Cronin go away from home on the night he was murdered. He said that the horse which drew tho buggy was not Denan's white horse, but a gray animal with white legs. Marshal D. Elwell, medical and microscopical expert, testified that there were no means known to science by which human hair could be cer tainly distinguished Trom any other hair. THE BBAZTTiTAN BEPUBMC. Washington, D. C. Nov. 21. Dr. Yalento, minister from Brazil, called on the state department to-day and informed secretary Blaine that his latest advices from Brazil were to the effect that peace reigned and the new government was receiving support of the people. Dr. Valento also re ceived this morning authority from the provincial government to instruct tho representatives of Brazil to the international American congress to continue to act for their country in the sessions of the congress. It is supposed that similar instruc tions have been sent to delegates to the international marine conference. NEWS FBOU AFB1CA. London, Nov. 21. Mackinnan, head of the Emin Pasha relief com mittee, has received a cable from Henry M. Stanley announcing his ar rival at Mywapa, and stating that he expected to reach Zanzibar in four or five days. Stanley's dispatches also state that he has made the important discovery that there is an extension of lake Nyassa. STIIiIi IN THE FAMILY. Washington, Nov. 21.

Starbuck, her master Capt. C. Curtis, first mate Gillon and second mate Herman to recover 2,500 damages, was begun this morning in the United states district court before Judge Deady. This is a suit for personal injuries sustained by maltreatment at the hands of officers of the ship. I.UBED AWAY BY FAITH HEALERS.

Vienna, Nov 2L The trial of sixty- five persons charged with swindling Austrian and Hungarian emigrants en route to America will begin at Wadowice, Austrian-Poland to-mor row. INDIANA'S ANTI-HABBISON BEVOLT. Jeffebsonville, Ind.,.NoY. 21. President Mayer, of the Lincoln league, who headed the party qfRe publicans who last night burned Pres ident Harrison in effigy, expresses no regret for his conduct. On the con trary, he declared his readiness to take a leading position in an anti Harrison club, and declared his be lief that 200 members of such an or ganization could be secured in a week. Among the young Republicans in this city and vicinity there is a strong movement for the establishment of such a club. The older heads among the party are trying to restrain the feeling, although agreeing with the more impetuous voters in lieartily condemning 'the presidents course in the matterof appointments. GONE WITH THE CHURCH FUND3. Omaha, Nov. 2L H. H Miller, a young man aotive in church circles, is among the missing. Miller was treas- - m::i,. iur--n x..-u a utor ul j.luu,j jji. jju wuuuu ouu up- erintendent of the Sunday school A few days ago some of the brethren became suspicious, and there was talk of electing a new church treasurer. Miller has disappeared, and so have all the church funds. The church loses about oSl.000 and the Sunday school $50 of its penny collections. Miller is a son of Emily Huntington Miller, the noted writer, andajiephew of Paul Miller, the millionaire car riage dealer, of Cmcinnati, and one of the leaders in the great Chautauqua movement His relatives offered to make good all losses sustained. SHOOKINa BURIALS OF VETERAN& Detroit, Nov. 2L The state of Miohigan pays $40 for the interment of each veteran who dies in destitute circumstances, and the presumption has been that the old soldiers were ac corded a decent burial. Eecently George Colbert died in the county house, and instead of sending the bodyto the Ann Arbor pickling vat the authorities notified undertaker Blake, who took charge of the body and presented his bill for 40, setting forth that he had carried the body to the cemetery m a hearse. This was questioned, and it was discovered that Blake had carried the body in an old farm wagon. This excited the Grand Army men and Culbert's body was exhumed. It was buried in a rough pine box. The body was des titute of clothing, but was wrapped with several pieces of cheese cloth and some carpet. Two recently buried soldiers were disinterred, and it was found that they, too, had been buried without regard to the proprieties. The Grand Army posts have begun an investigation. SIX SOIiIiIOIf DOLLARS INVOLVED. Dexver, Nov."21. The second legal fight for the six million dollars' worth oforeBaidto be in sight on Aspen Mountain is in progress in the United States court before Judge Hallett. The best legal talent in the west is employed and all the mining experts in the mountains are on hand. The case is known as Durant vs. Bonny bell. It was tried before and won by BonybelL In the begin ning the owners of the Durant claimed to have the apex of the vine and consequently the right to follow the vein on its dip. In this way the Unrants gobbled up some of tho best mines on Aspen mountain. The de feated parties to the suit, known as "side-liners," then located the Bonny bell and followed the vein into the Durant side lines, thus playing the same game that had robbed them of much valuable property. The contest rests almost entirely upon the ques. tion as to whether the Bonnybell ore body is an ore vein in places. If so, the Bonnybell owners have a right to follow it upon its dip whether it may lead, but if, as the Du rant owners claim, it is but a broken mass of rock and ore which has be come detached and fallen down from the apex of their vein above, then the Bonnybell people are entitled to only so much of it as happened to lodge witlrin their lines at the spilling. Merit Wins. We desire to say to our citizens, that wo have been selling Dr. King's New Discoverv for Consumution. Dr. Kine'.s New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that se.ll. as well, or that have given such universal satisfac tion. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfac tory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their gieat popularity purely on their merits. ,1. W. Conn, Druggist. Pattins Up a Boy'n Lancli. A recent writer and she writes a3 one whom any boy would love tells how she saw a mother put up a luuch for her boy to take to school, and then she tells very prettily how daintily she would have put up that lunch, and I know she would have done just as she said, says Burdette. But sho didn't go far enough. Now, if I were going to put up a lunch for a boy thirteen years old, I wouldn't take a little tin pail nor yet a neat little cov ered basket; I- would just take the market basket, if the family wasn't going to use it that day, and I would cut up a loaf of bread and trim off every bit of the crust to keep the boy from lying about it and telling me that he ate it and didn't fire it over the fence when he came home. I would cut that loaf into slices and spread on the butter until it began to fall off. and then I would stack on the sugar-as long as it would hold. Then 1 would load in a couple of links of sausage and some slabs of ham, a dainty cluster of hard boiled eggs say half a dozen. all the cake there was in the house, and fill up the rest of the snace with pie, and then stuff iwo oi nis pocKeis run qt appies to eat during school hours, and then fill the rest of his pockets with nuts and givo him five cents to buy taffy. Then, if that boy came home at 4 o'clock and said that he didn't have enough lunch eon and couldn't he have a piece, I would give him the keys to the cellar, cupboard, pantry, cake chest and fruit closet, and yielding to dark despair go out to the barn and hang myself. We were a boy myself, once. . AUNTIE PERPLEXED. "For heaven's sake what does your mol'ici do to you children that makes you so Iikh jry?" 'Tlcasc, auntie, sho gives us Joy's Vest ta ble Sarsaparllla and its awful good." T. S.
