mouth. After eating Strazini given an
exhibition of dancing, as wonderful as
what lias eone before. He does it w ith
bare feet in a box filled with debris and
shreds of champagne bottles, lamp
shades, wine glasses, eto. Into thin he
diqfs with bin feet, jumps alout in all
dire'tions, and ends by burying his head
in the broken g!a., The strange part of
it is that ho comes out w ithent a scratch.
His cuticl seems to be ax impervious to
such an onslaught as his ster.iru-h it to
sawdust and brick and burning coal oil.
Medical me.i from far and near have in

wonderful performances.

The three boys who ran away from
their bomes in Portland and were taken
in charge by the city marshal yesterday,
were no doubt much pleased last night
when the father of one of them arrived,
lie took the whole lot back with him
this morning. Marshal Blakeney gave
the boys a good lesson ; not treating
them harshly, but making them under
stand they were not attending picnic.
The boyf got mad when locked in the
corridor of the city jail, and destroyed
what provisions they had with them.
In consequence they got nothing to eat
until supper time, at which time their
appetites were handy. One of them was
heard to remark to the others yester
day that he "had all the tough life
he wanted, ".and the others tearfully
agreed with him. They will enjoy their
Thanksgiving dinner at home tomorrow,
und no doubt their respective mothers
will be more than thankful to know that
her bov is ?afe at home.

"And were you taking notes for future
literary work at this period?-'
"Not at all. I had not the least idea
at this time that any portion of literary
fame awaited me. 1 lived their life, un
thinking. I took my pick and shovel,
and asked where I might dig. They
said, 'Anywhere,' and it was true that
you could get 'color,' that is, a few
grains of gold, from any of the surface
earth with which you chose to fill your
pan. In an ordinary day's work you
get enough to live on, or, as it was
called, 'grub wages.' I was not a suc
cess as a gold digger, and it was con
ceived that I would answer for a Wells
Fargo messenger. A Wells Fargo mes
senger was a person who sat beside the
driver on tbe box-seat of a stage-coach,
in charge of the letters and 'treasure'
which the Weiis Fargo Express Coni
prny took from a mining camp to the
nearest town or city. Stage robbers
were plentiful. My predecessor in the
position had been shot through the arm,
and my successor was killed. I held
tbe post for some months, and then
gave it up to become the schoolmaster
near Sonora Sonora having by immi
gration attained the size and population
w hich called for a school. For several
years after this I wandered about Cali
fornia from city to camp, and camp to
city, without any sjiecial purpose. I
became an editor, and learned to set
type, the ability to earn my own living
as a printer Wing a source of great sat
isfaction to me, for, strange to say, I
had no confidence until long after that
period in literature as a means of liveli
hood. I have never in my life had an
article refused publication, and yet I
never had any of that confidence which,
in the case of many otheis, does not
seeia to have been impaiied by repeated
refusals. Nearly all my life I have held
some political or editorial post, upon
which I relied lor an income. This has,
no doubt, affected my work, since it
gave me more liberty to write as pleased
myself, instead of endeavoring to write
for a purpose, or in accordance with the
views of somebody else." Conversation
with Bret Harte in McClure's Magazine
for Iecember.
Congrmitraatt Ellla a 1'attnencer.
I Hon. W. It. Ellis of Heppner, one of
I Oregon's representatives in congress,
passed through this morning on his way
to WasLington, D. C, to attend the
short session of the Fifty-third congress.
Mr. Ellis, who is spoken of as being
among the youngest and most handsome
' of the law-makers of the United States,
looked every inch a congressman as he
stepped off the train and talked affably
during the few moments stop here with
a La Grande friend. He had of course
but little time to devote to a Chronicle
representative- who interviewed him,
but inioruisd the bcrihe that he thought
the Nicaragua canal project would be
the chief and most important subject
that will be considered this session. He
bad several measures himself to propose,
but did not have time to outline them.
Mr. Ellis was not accompanied by his
familv. La Grande Chronicle.

Leipzig has a sensation just now in
the person of Strazini, w ho has kept the
medical profession iu a state of excite
ment ever since he made his appearance
there, says the New York Press. Stra
zini astonishes his audiences by first
eating a soup which consists of sawdust,
plentifully mixed with coal oil. The
mess is set afire, and after the flames
have been extinguished Stra.ine eats
the peculiar mixture, ladling it out with
a spoon. He follows this up with bit
ing piece after piece from the lamp
chimney, crushing the glass between his
teeth and swallowing it. He washes it
down with a little water. For desert
he munches pieces of hard coal, peat,
washing soda, tallow candles, pieces of
plaster cast and bricks, boots, clay
pipes, and seeuis to enjoy the conglom
eration. All Ibis is eaten at one meal
and In quick succession. A little water
is the only leverage in w hich he indulges
during that meal. Strazini asserts that
he does not feel the slightest discomfo.t
from this unusual diet and certainly
looks it. When he has finished bis din
ner of ceramics, he pours dow n two cups
of coal oil, throws his head back ami
holds lighted match to his mouth.

A goodly number of Knights of Pythias
went to the Cascade Locks yesterday
afternoon in a special car, for the pur
pose of assisting in conferring the ranks
and for a fraternal visit to Pythagoras

Glass restaurant owned and managed by

The tri.il of Savage, begun Wednesday
afternoon, occupies the attention of the
circuit court today, and has drawn quite
a full house. This morning we noticed
a number of ladies in the courthouse,
As the trial progresses the interest will
become greater, especially when the de
fense opens its case. The publication of
the testimony iu the preliminary exam
ination gave pretty full information as
to the case for the prosecution. How
ever there will be some additional testi
mony. Walter Rowe was brought here
Tuesday, and his testimony will be
taken. The cross-examination of the
witnesses is thorough and the case is
dragging along slowly.
There was an amusing feature of the
suit of Klamath county against Howe's
bondsmen. Charlie Moore was one of
the sureties, and consequently a defend
ant. As county judge, he had the suit
instituted against himself, and was,
therefore, plaintiff. He was, in fact, a
client of counsel on both sides. When a
verdict for the county w as given, Judge
Moore laughingly gave his hand to Dis
trict Attorney Benson and said : "Well,
we knocked 'em out," the judge himself
being knocked out to the tune of several
thousand dollars.
Much solicitude is felt for James
Peters, tha veteran roadmaster who now
has charge of the track department for
the entire Oregon Railway & Navigation
system, who is reported ill at his home
iu Umatilla. Mr. Peters, commonly
known as "Young Peters," is between
60 and 65 years of age, and is the oldest,
employe of the U. R. A N. His years
have had no effect on his activity, unless
it be that he has each year become more
active, and devotes more time to his
duties than when he was younger.
Through the work of the Lane county
court in going over the assessment rolls
and bringing to time those who neg
lected to properly report their poses
sions in the form of notes and mort
gages, the taxable property in the
county has been raised ,52,tiX2. Over
1W) persons were summoned to a linear
before the court, and of this uumber the
assessment of forty-six were raised.
One man's assessment was raised $10,
000, and on several a raise of from $1,000
to $2,000 was made.
We have been unable to chase down a
rumor concerning some new improve
ments that are to be made, and some
new industries to be started hero in the
near future. We did run them down far
enough that one who pretends to know
says the arrangements are not yet com
pleted sufficiently to give them publi
city, but that there is good foundation
for the rumor. The prowsed industries
reuri elevator, w ith 100-burrel mill, mid
a scouring mill, all to be built within
the next few months.
The Oregonian today contains a half
column article concerning the sale of
the Regulator and Dalles City, to the
O. R. A N. Co. There is absolutely
nothing in the rumor, which is simply
one of a hundred others started concern
ing the D. P. A A. N. Cos. boats. When
this boat line is sold it will Ixi time
enough lor the Portland papers to make
a note of the fact. As it is these notices
seem to be intended for no other purpose
than to injuie the business of the boats.
