LI HUNG -CHANG.
IJfeeraZitx f tne Views -of the tChlneae
Statesman.
It is claimed that .notwithstanding
LI Hung Chang has -shown some liber
ality of views toward modern improve
ments end education, he is at heart t
hater of foreigners, and has an abiding
. faith ia Chinese institutions and meth
ods of government. He is, it is true,
a great admirer of -Confucian philos
ophy, and remembering' the enduring:
history et his people we can hardly
wonder at his devotion to the institu
tions -which have made that history
possible. When we call to mind th
experience China has had with certain
western nations, it might not De con
sidered strange if his attachment to
foreigners was not very ardent; but
in all his public life, says John W. Fos
ter in Century, his conduct shows
that he feels the need of foreign aid,
and is disposed to give it proper wel
come, and of all Chinese statesmen he
is the most liberal-minded and free
from prejudice. He is far from claim
ing that the present system of govern
ment is perfect. He has, in fact, urged
upon the authorities at Feking two im
portant changes which look to a reform
of the most serious defects in the sys
tem; to wit, the withdrawal from the
viceroys of provinces of powers which
should be exercised only by the imperial
fTOvernment, and such a change in the
method of admission to the public serv
ice as will liberalize the examinations,
and make fitness rather than scholar
ship the test. There are other changes
which he would gladly bring about if
he had the power; but, as he confessed
to Marquis I to, "China is hampered by
antiquated customs which prevent de
sirable reforms."

' Slight Kraptlon of Mt. Hood.
The Hood River Glacier beet tells the
story of the eruption of Mt. Hood on
Wednesday of last week. William Kil
lingsworth "and party; consisting of
twenty-one persons, had made a suc
cessful ascent and were on their way
down and had reached a crevasse some
400 feet below the summit. This crev
asse is of unknown depth for the greater
part of its length, but was nearly filled
at the place where the party crossed it.
When aboat half tbe party bad crossed
a rambling -sound, resembling tbe roar
of distant thunder or artillery, was
heard. Tbe next instant the mountain
trembled, and on looking up, smoke and
steam were seen issuing from a tower
ing cliff directly above them. The air
seemed to he filled with flying rocks,
and an avalanche of boulders came tear
ing down tbe mountain side directly
toward the point where the helpless
little knot of mountain climbers were
standing. There was no time to think,
no way of escape, and no power on
earth could stop the downward flight of
the leaping boulders.. In an instant al
most the stream of boulders was upon
them. One of the largest struck near
Miss Fay Killingsworth. She was lifted
some fifteen feet into tbe air, her body
being twisted into a circle, so that her
hands and feet touched, and then thrown
into a crevasse some ten feet deep, where
she was picked np unconscious. The
boulder cleared this crevasse and then
continued down the mountain side.
The guide who accompanied the party
at once went to the young lady's rescue.
Upon getting down into the crevasse he
saw only a piece of the girl's dress. By
dint of hard work, however, he soon had
tbe body uncovered and managed to get
her out. Her face and hands were
bruised and bleeding and she was un
conscious. A small flask ot brandy was
the only restorative at. band, and this
was applied with the desired result.
She had to be carried down the moun
tain, and then Dr. Raffety was sum
moned by telephone from Portland, as it
was feared she was seriously and per
haps fatally injured. But no bones
were broken. Her bruises were bad,
however, and it wiil take some time to
recover from the shock. Several others
in tbe party were also struck by rocks,
but none of them were seriously in
jured. Tbe eruption lasted but a few minutes.
After the rocks and ashes that were
thrdwn up had fallen and the boulders
reached tbeir destination' at the foot of
tbe mountain, all was serene again.
Mr. Peterson Will Leave Ua.
Business continuing dull in the cigar
trade, Mr. O. A. Peterson recently ad
vervised in the New York Clipper for a
professional engagement. Several days
ago in response to the advertisement he
received an offer to lead Schilling's Min
strels band, and play first violin. He
replied that he was no violinist, and to
day received a second telegram asking
him to come at once to lead the band,
wardrobe furnished.. The eeason opens
in Denver next Monday, and Mr. Peter
son will leave tomorrow night. The ef
fect of Mr. Peterson's withdrawal will
prove disastrous to our band, who have
been so kindly furnishing free Sunday
afternoon concerts during the summer.
The burden of the lead cornet will now
fall to Mr. Benton, who, though an effi
cient and thorough cornetist, cannot
perform the impossible and sustain the
B flat unassisted. The band has, how
ever, made a heroic struggle to retain
Mr. Peterson. The people of town fail
ing to purchase "Regulator" cigars
which by the way are actually made out
of the best tobacco possible to obtain.
Mr. Peterson could not sustain himself
by the limited sales, asd the band then
voted him a salary of 420 a month for
three months, hoping that by that time
his business would improve. But
smokers continued to buy other and
often inferior cigars, or dealers failed to
push them. The business failed to even
keep tbe manager busy as his own fac
tory hand, and he was compelled to seek
other avenues of employment. The
town thus loses, besides a email manu
factory, a moBt efficient band leader
whose place will be hard to duplicate.
The hundreds who have assembled on
Sunday afternoons to listen to the
choicest music will remember the past
pleasures of the summer and regret Mr.
Peterson's departure. He leaves to
morrow nigbt for his engagement with
ttcnilling's Minstrels.
Where Bard Times Do Not Finch.
Six . cars of fruit were shipped last
week from The Dalles. Another will
leave tonight and, two more Wednesday.
Prices so far have been very satisfactory,
even the local market ruling high. - IJ
a very lunuuBie uur luiereBiH are so di
versified, as a continual stream of money
from the East is converted to as the
year round. Beginning with strawber
ries, the fruit , shipping season does not
close till nearly strawberries again, for
winter apples and pears are shipped
until the middle of April. Other im
mense interests which attract capital are

Into the millions annually in Wasco
and surrounding counties of which The
Dalles is tbe outlet. Fishing, mining,
lumbering and ' general farming add
tbeir quota to the business of a common
wealth, prosperous even in these pinched
and panicky times, by sheer virtue of
our raising and possessing bo much
natural basic wealth. This leads us" to
again observe that our fruit is the best
in tbe United States, proving it by two
cotemporaneous facts. At the world's
fair of 1893 Oregon took first premium
and at the Oregon state fair the same
year Wasco county also took, first pre
mium for the state.

Employment Office
: The Dalles is to have an employment
agency or intelligence office. In an en
terprising town such as this there should
be a medium of this kind between em
ployer and employe, and we' wish the
new "venture permanent success. We
understand Tbe Dalles Employment
Agency, as it will be known, will be lo
cated over Mclnerny's store, and that it
is a branch of tbe Portland house of tbe
same name, working in connection with
tbe Portland office. Tbe Dalles branch
will bo prepared to furnish male and
female help on demand.
'' A Temperance Deed.
In looking over the records In Crook
county tbe editor of tbe Prineville Re
view found the following conditions in a
deed to a piece of land deeded to the
First Baptist church of Mitchell : "the
condition upon which the said premises
are granted are such that if the above
named Baptiet church shall sell or per
mit to be sold upon said premises any
malt, or intoxicating liquors, then this
deed shall be null and void, and tbe pre
mises herein described then and imme
diately revert to the above-named
grantor, his heirs and as&igns." A deed
of such wording is no curiosity' in" the
Wasco county court house. ' Many of
the registries of real estate transfers
from varies parts of the connty are simi
larly worded.

The officers of the city have had a ter-
r l Die tale ot woe pourea into tbeir cars
today by a woman calling herself Mrs.
Martha Brown, who is anxious to swear
out a complaint charging her husband
with "failing to support her.',' She hails
from New Haven, Conn., and while the
charge may be legal and punishable by
a fine or imprisonment, or both, in Yan
keedom, it doth not appear as a crime
on tbe Oregon statute. There are many
men in Oregon who not only fail to sup
port their wives, but are often supported
by them. The sheriff upon listening to
Mrs. Biown's troubles secured a hearing
for her before the recorder, but he un
feelingly , would not . issue the desired
warrant of arrest, and she was eent to
Justice Filloon. Soon afterwards she
tried to get Attorney Story to do some
thing for her, but she must have failed,
for shortly again, she was around at the
place of beginning, and nothing bad
been accomplished toward punishing
her recreant husband.
Her story is that Mr. Brown had been
persuaded to came to Oregon through
the letters of some women living near
the city on a farm, he claiming to her
they were his sisters ; that shortly after
arriving hn became strangely familiar
with them, considering the alleged sis
terly relation, and that his affections for
her correspondingly decreased. He had
not been the most faithful of husbands
even in New Haven, where he pursued
tbe trade of a shoemaker, but Bbe would
have lived with him here if he had be
haved himself. Now she wants him ar
rested for non-support, and to prove it,
she asserts that he was a burglar in Con
necticut, has served a sentence of eigh
years in states prison, and has another
wife in - Kentucky, and is therefore a
