The handsome new residence of M. V.
Harrison of "Hood River came very
near being destroyed by fire Friday
mornfns. In order, to dry the
walls before moving into the
building a fire had been kindled

"There is not an acre of fruit land with
in five miles of The Dalles that has not
YtAv-n nhfinofHi in vfiTrie fn11vfive dol
lars an acre by reason of the Regulators'
being on the river. We can now ship a
box of grapes to Portland for seven ceets

one lived eight or ten miles from Port
land on land worth $100 an acre and had
to travel through the mud to get there.
Two farmers met in this- city the

"We aint going to have any more drouth
in Eastern Oregon. We're going to
have three raining stations next sum
mer, one on Three Mile, one on, Eight
Mile, and one on Fifteen Mile." "How
can you make it rain?'-' was asked.
"Oh," said the first Bpeaker, "we're
going to get a fellow from Omaha who
makes rain by going into a building and
sticking a pipe through the roof and
; then turning a crank." "Oh gracious,''
was the answer, "if cranks can bring rain
you fellows on Three Mile can deluge the i
whole country. ..-.'
A thief made the attempt to enter the
dwelling of H. C. Nielsen last Saturday
night but was balked in his effort,
chiefly through the means of . a faithful
watchdog which gave the alarm and
wakened Mr. Nielsen who saw the man
crouched in the corner - of his yard fence
and ordered him off on pain of being
shot. Fortunately for the thief Mr,
Nielsen's pistol was not loaded, a fact
that Mr. Nielsen did not discover till he
bad done his best to blow the intruder
out of the fence corner. This story
has two morals one for the thief that
admomshes him that he may not tgo.

A curious case of stabbing took place
Sunday night on First street near Sny
der's .restaurant. A man named Geo.
McAuley met another named Jim Davis.
McAuley widlv, asked some question of
Davis aboufa. dog. Davis answered that
hefc-fiew nothing of McAuley's dog when
wrthout farther provocation, it is said,
the latter made alash at Davis -with a
pocket knue cutting a gash in his fore
head that required three or four stitches
to close it up. Davis grasped his as
sailant by the arm and held him till
some one came to his aid. Aa soon as

slash at Davis cutting his coat in two
places in the back.-- No arrests have
been made at noon. Davis claims that

day in tha frame barn of H. H. Leonard
near the garrison, which destroyed one
valuable horse and badly burned another
and burned the whole building and its
coutents, consisting of hay, straw and
harness. The horse that was saved was
got out by a scratch, after a gocd deal of
the hair had been burned off his body
and possibly one of his eyes permanently
iniured. No one knows how the . fire
originated and the loss falls heavily on
Mr. Leonard as he was not insured.
Tom Powers the printer who com
mitted suicide the other day in Portland
was not exactly new to the business of
attempting his own life or at at least of
contemplating feUo de se. In the year
1884 while in this city he approached
Colonel Sinnott with a request for ten
dollars to take him to lakima city,
threatening, in case of refusal, to drown
himself in the Columbia river. The
Colonel quietly told him that if he did
drown himself he would never be
missed. At the same time the would be
suicide was furnished transportation to
Yakima citv for which he afterwards
settled in full.

As we'reported yesterday the jury in
the case of the state vs. William More
ton failed to agree after having been out
over twenty-one hours, it is now
known the jury stood five for acquittal
and seven were in favor 'of finding the
prisoner guilty as charged in the indict
ment. The five jurors in favor of ac
quittal took their stand from the first
and would make no concession. It was
acquittal or nothing. The seven offered
to concede so far as to be willing to find
a verdict of simple assault, but in vain
and it became evident to Judge Brad
shaw that the jury would not agree so
they were discharged.

i'lrcnlt Court Proceedings.
At the opening of the court this morn
ing R. L. Alexander who was found
guilty of larceny from a person was
brought before his honor to receive sen
tence.' The prisoner made a rambling
speech, reviewing the evidence by which
he was found guilty and claiming that
he was innocent. He handed aletter to
Judge Bradehaw, which contained the
names of the county officers of Linn
county. Missouri, to whom he referred
the court for a character, claiming that

The Empire Stitte Flyer.
The largest engine ever built in the
Schenectady Locomotive Works was
completed on Monday. Its number is
893, and it has been constructed for the
purpose of hauling the fastest train in
world The Empire State Express
across the State New York to Buffalo
at speed about one mile per minute in
cluding stops. The drivers of the big
fellow are six feet and a half in diameter,
the biggest ever turned out of the shop.
The drivers on the ordinary locomotives
average about 0 feet ten inches. The
engineer and fireman wi'I be perched
upon seats in the cab eight feet and a
half from the rails. The boilef is what
is known as the "wagon top, ot spang
steel one half inch in thickness, and its
diameter is 58 inches. The boiler is
logged with asbestos cement instead of
wood, which is generally used. The fire
box is 9b 3-lu inches long, 40 7-8 inches
wide and 70 1-4 inches deep in front and
58 1-4 inches in the rear. The cylinders
are 19 by 24 inches. The wheels of the
tender will de 36 inches in diameter, and
will be the same as are used in drawing
room cars. The engine alone, it is esti
mated, will weigh about 125,000 pounds,
or 62 1-2 tons.
Master-Mechanic Buchanan, has de
vised an aerial plow, to be attached to
the engine of the State Express for the
purpose of lessening the resistance of
the air. The plows are to .be of steel and
V-shaped. Thev will be put on in front.
and will extend from a few inches above
the tracks to the top of the smokestacks,
the sharp point fronting. It is believed
that this device will relieve the engine
of many hundred pounds of resistance.

A Lively Time at a Danee.
Lexington, Ky., Nov. 22. A quarrel
which broke out among the attendants
of a dance given at the home of John
Thomas near Donerael last night, devel
oped into a fearful battle. Walter
Arnspiger, Ed Lawless and DavePorgan,
of Scott county, got into a difficulty with
Robert and John Sebree. Robert was
struct on the head with n pair of brass
knuckles by Arnspiger, whereupon he
drew a pistol and shot Arnspiger t hrough
the stomach, inflicting a probably fatal
wound. Robert continued the firing,
wounding Ed Clause, John Sebree,
who is but 14 years old, seeing that his
brother was likely to get the worst of
the fight drew his pistol and shot Law
less in the neck. While the lighting
and firing was going on, the guests be
came panic stricken and fled in alt' di
rections, but returned as soon as the fir
ing ceased, and began caring for the
wounded. Clause and Lawless are not
thought to be dangerously wounded.
Both the Sebrees are in ja.il. The par
ticipants are all white men, and had
borne good reputations up to this time.
Slain By Revengeful Mexicans.
Pittsburg, Nov. 22. The remains of
Daniel Yengling passed" through this
eveniug en route to Clarion, in charge
of his brother. Yengling "was superin
tendent of n mining company at
Monterey, Mexico, and was murdered
last week by three Mexicans whom he
had discharged. They entered his room
and after binding and gaging his room
mate, stabbed lenghng twentv-two
times. He died next morning. The
Mexican authorities are investigating
the matter and fourteen arrests have
been made.
TnWuii bliito i luiiitui Is now vacant, anil
Governor Pennover will toon make the
appointment to fill the vacancy. Brigadier-General
Siglin has resigned, aiid his
place will have to be filled by soinu one

have been made to the governor, but he
will wait a few days before taking action.
It is learned that Colonel Charles E.
Morgan, late commandant of the Third
regiment, O. X. G., is most prominently
spoken of in connection with this office.
He is a practical militiaman, and has
been residing in this city for some time.
Colonel T. A. Houghton", who recently
resigned as commandant of the Third
regiment, is also a candidate for the
office. Oregouian.
The San Francisco Bulletin has this to
say in regard to shipments of flour from
this coast: It is noticed that Oregon
has recently been shipping more flour to
Europe than California. It was at one
time supposed that we should be able to
send a considerable quantity of Califor
nia flour to Europe, and to this end it
was proposed to put up one of the
largest mills on this coast. The build
ing, a very large and substantial struc
ture, was erected, but the mill machin
ery has never been put up, and has
probably never been ordered. Oregon
has an advantage of cheaper mill power
than California, but California flour, has !
been much appreciated in England. j
The first of the new whaleback steam
el s to ply on Pacific coast waters will
soon reach the sound. These steamers
are expected to revolutionize the carry
ing trade on large bodies of water, and
some idea of their freight capacity may
be gained from the statement that the
one en route carries 2000 tons ofjfreight
besides enough coal to last on the
journey from New York to the sound.

Bin; Potatoes.
Collins- Landing, Not. 18,1891.
Edilor of the Chronicle: ,
Dear Sib : I ship yon potatoes as per
agreement. Yon will find five Peerless
and three . Bonrbank seedlings. The
latter and three of the Peerless are
nothing extra for size, as I have hun
dreds of bushels of them, but they are a
little above the average. The' largest
one weighed eight ponnds and the next
largest, six and one-half pounds when
taken from the gronnd.
Yours Respectfully,
' Robert Cabb.
The above explains itself. The pota
toes have arrived and the largest was
found to weigh exactly seven and a half
pounds, the next size six pounds and two
ounces, Ihev nave doubtless shrunk
the difference since being dug. - Mr.
Carr's place is opposite Shell Rock on
the Washington side of the river. The
potatoes are now on exhibition at this
office and if any one can beat them any
where the Chronicle would like to hear
from Jiim. In this connection, however,
we may mention that in the year '84 six
potatoes were raised on the Theodore
Mesplie place, four miles from town,
whose weight aggregated fifty-two
pounds. ;

Tried to Destroy tlie Proberty.
Paeis, Nov. 22. A dastardly attempt
to destrov valuable property was made
today at Decaseville, a village nineteen
miles northwest of Village Frenche. In
the neighborhood there are situated sil
ver and lead mines, worked by a syndi
cate of English capitalists. Had the ex
plosion occurred while the-men were at
work, it is doubtful if one would have
escaped alive. So great is the damage
in will take a month to put the mine in
a workable condition. There is no clue
to the perpetrators of the deed and no
reason is known for the act.

It is a curious fact in our political his
tory that independent movements take
place at regular intervals of four years,
and they always manifest themselves in
the congressional election held in those
years in which no president is tobe
chosen. The protest they present is al
ways against the party in ' national
power, and was, for example, against
the republicans in 1874, 1878, 1882, 1890,

pimples.
The old Idea of 40 years ago was that facial
eruptions were due to a "blood humor," for
which they gave potash. Thus all the old Earaa-
parlllas contain potash, a most objectionable and
drastic mineral, . that instead ot decreasing,
actually creates more eruptions. Tou have no
ticed this when taking other Barsaparfllas than
Joy's. It is however now known that the stom
ach, tho blood creating power, is the seat of all
vltialing or cleansing operations. A stomach
clogged by Indigestion or constipation, vitiates
tho blood, result pimples. A clean stomach and
healthful digestion purifies it and they disappear.
Thus Joy's Vegetable Sarsanariila is compounded
after the modern Idea to regulate the bowels and
stimulate the digestion. The efTect is immediate
and most fatisiactory. A tliort testimonial to
contrast the n?lio:i of tho potash Sarsaparillas
aad Joy' moucrn vegrtable preparation. Mrs.
C. D. Stuart, c f 400 IIa.-c3 St., S. F., writes: " I
haro for years l:ad ir.dicsii-Vu, I tried a popular
Sarsapurilia but it nclii::!.. c atie! more pimples
to bream out 0:1 my face.. Hearing that Joy's was
a later prepa-t::I::t au,l ucte.l diCereutly, I tried
It and the pimiUei immediately dixnipearcd."
