lenntar Morgan and th Canal Project.
New Youk, Nov. 27. Senator John
r. Morgan, of Alabama, is quoted in a
tribune special from Washington as
hying in an interview about the
Nicaragua canal project:

Lis willing

pess and determination
ind I have no doubt that a large ma
jority of the senate will vote for the bill
then the time arrives. The trouble
us been, and is likely to be in securing
lermission to consider the bill. When
i vote is taken a great majority will vote
n its favor.
"I am in favor of the ratification of
he Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and I think
lids treaty will be disposed of favorably.
"The question of fortifications along
lie canal is one which has more interest
r the countries of Nicaragua, and Costa
Jtira than for the United States. Nica
pgua and Costa Rica own the ground
tnd ought to have a right to say just
hat they want in this direction. It they
nnt the riiiht to fortifv the canal then
here will bo some necessity for the dis
union of this subject, but so far as the
nterests of this country are concerned
he matter is of verv little consequence.
"Some of tho military authorities may
take the ground that in view of the on
certain character of the governments of
;South American republics a few fortifica
tions might be a good thing, as this is an
u,nni n mat uoes not bear on tiie canai
ptojert proper and is of no great conse
quence. Let the nations owning the
land have their say in this respect, and
let us not worry over it."

of the letter gave the name of the alleged
conspirator, whicli the police lefuse to
make public at this time. The letter,
which is illegibly signed, is as follows:
"Sir Having almost thoroughly as
sured myself of an anarchist plot against
his excellency. McKinley, I consider it
my dutv to advise von of the name of
one who is more than suspected of being
a leader, whose name is found in the en
closed slip. He is a fugitive from jus
tice, and a dangerous man, having been
convicted several times and on the last
occasion being sentenced to five years'
imprisonment for an anarchistic at
tempt.
"My statement can be verified on ap
pealing to the perfect of peace at Paris,
France. In the course of th1 past year
he has associated w ith him a man named
Francoise, the author of an anarchistic
attempt at Scranton, whore he mortally
wounded an agent of the police.
The writer of this letter, the police
say, has been located and his storv will
be investigated.

by a rapid march of twenty-six miles,
got in front of General Dewet, placing
btwsolf helween the Boers and the
Orange liver. Dewet is now believed to
be gi..ng westward to join Hertzog at
Boomplaatze.
Colonel Pilcher bad a smart skirmish
Tuesday, November 27th, with part of
General Dewet command, which was
convoying loot captured at Dewetsdorp.
The Boers retreated, abandoning a por
tion of the loot and a large number of
horees. Formor President Steyn and
General Dewet were in close proximity
to the scene of the fighticg, but they
eluded the British.
London, Nov. 29. In connection with
the movements of General Knox report
ed in the dispatch from Cape Town,
Lord Roberts, in a message from Johan
nesburg dated Wednesday, November
2Sth, gays General Knox re-occupied
Dewetsdorp November 20tb. The Boers,
he added, had attacked the place No
vember 21st and the town had surren
dered November 24th. General Knoz,
at last accounts, was pursuing the Fed
eral commando.
Lord Roberts also reports that various
columns found the Boers holding Btrong
positions in the vicinity of Harrismith,
Phillipopoli (both in the Orange rivei
country) and other widely separated
points. The fighting, however, was of
little importance.
So far as known here President Steyn
is not wounded, although reports to the
contrary have been circulated.
THANKSGIVING.
Knsay ltead ly an Kljrhth Cirade Topll
of The Halle Public School.
Thanksgiving day next to Xuias, is to
Amorican children, the most important
event of the year. With glad hearts old
and young sit about the blazing family
fireside, and tell with song and jest of
the blessings, from a just and merciful
God.
The custom of keeping Thanksgiving
day, as handed down to us is a custom
of trreat antiquity ; and is supposed to
have originated from the law of Moses.
For the Jews had a custom and were ac
customed to celebrate a plenteous harvest
by public festivals. Because in that
country of sand and desert, rood harvests
did not make their appearance every
year, and droughts being of a freight oc
curance, therefore when they had a
harvest they had a very good reason for
rejoicing.
In England it was not introduced un
til the discovery of the Guy hawkes
plot, which was an attempt to blow up
the house of parliament.
It was probably introduced into this
country from Holland by the Pilgrlmt
ia 1021, the gathering of the first harvest
baing a time of great rejoicing among
the Pilgrims. Governor Bradford set
apart a day to give thanks to God for
the bounteous harvest and the blessing
which they had enjoyed during their
first year in the land where they had
come to seek religious freedom from the
restraints of the old world governments.
Thus from being practiced In their little
colony, it has become a national custom
and every year the president issues
his proclamation setting aside the laf-t
Thursday in November as a day of na
tional thanksgiving, and President Mc
Kinley in his proclamation stated "It
has pleased Almighty God to bring our
nation in safety and honor through an
other year. The works of religion and
charity have everywhere been manifest.
Our country, through all its extent, has
been blessed with abundant harvest.
Ltbor and the great industry of the peo
ple have prospered beyond all precedent.
Our commerce has spread over the world,
our power and influence In the cause of
freedom sn l enlightenment have ex
tenil.'d over distant SPii and lands. We
have been gei.erally exempt from pesti
lence and other great calamities, and
even the tragic visitation which over
whelmed the city of Galveston made
evident the sentiment of sympathy and
Christian charity hv virtue of which we
are one united people.'
On next Thursday, in accord with the
president' proclamation, all the people
of the United States (business being sus
pended) will meet at their homes and
praise God for the many blessings be
stowed upon them during the past year.
We have many things to be thank
ful fuT for the home, fur our many
fnen Is, for business prosperity ; far
more than tha Pilgrims had when they
landed and built their wretched huts
upon tha bleak and barren coast and
j dared to brave the dangers of New Eng
I land and of pioneer life in the new
' world, and with Whittier we might ex
claim :

It Happened In a lrag- Store.
"One day last winter a lady came to
my drug store and asked for a brand of
cough medicine that I did not have in
steck," says Mr. C. R. Grandin, the
Dopular druggist of Ontario, N. Y. "She
was disappointed and wanted to know
what cough preparation I could rec'im
ruend, I said to her that I could freely rec
ommend Chamberluin'e Cough Remedy
and that she could take a bottle of the
remedy and after giving it a fair trial if
she did not find it worth the money to
bring back the bottle and I would refund
the pricu paid, In the course of a day
or two the lady came back in company
with a friend in need of a cough medicine
and advised her to buy a bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Reaedy. I consider
that a very good recommendation for
the remedy." It is for sale by G. C
Blakeley, the druggist.
Mr, rickard Borrowed a Convict,
Chicago. Nov. 28. A special to the
Tribune from Columbus, O., Bays: In
order to immediately secure valuable pa
pera belonging to her dead husband, the
late Colonel F. J. Pickard, a civil engi
neer, who died a few days ago, an expert
eafe blower, now a convict in the state
penitentiary here, was loaned to Mrs.
Pickard by the Warden long enough for
him to open the Btrong box in which the
important papers were kept. The entire
affair was kept secret, and the prisoner
was conveyed through thecity in a closed
carriage to the safe, which he blew open
and was returned to his cell before day
light this morning.
All private papers were locked up in
Colonel Pickard's safe, the dead man
alone having known the combination.
The town was searched in vain for an
expert to open the eafe, and the novel
plan of securing the services of a burglar
was adopted. It took the convict 12
minutes to open tho safe.

COMMITTEE'S ACTION DEFENDED
Tha r.lfi of :.(HI tu Lien nt Ih Annual
! ( the Kara Track by tha III
Irli'l fr'alr Aaaoi-latlou.
To Tux Eoixoit :
In last SatuVdav' edition of Thk
Chkomcm there appeared an article
bearing the title "A Misappropriation,"
and signed "J." The writer who thus
hides his identity seeks to cast reflection
npon the business men of The Dalles in
general. The mao who in any com
munity stiHipa to such work, and who
seeks to hide himself behind such a sub
terfuge, brands himself a coward and
should receive the treatment he so
richly deserves.
First, this correspondent "J" an
nounces that he has anxiously waited
and earnestly looked for a denial 6t a
puhlished statement in a certain issue of
tho Oieitonian concerning the donation
of $500 which the executive committee
of the Carnival Association made to The
Dalles Driving Association. "J" thus
plainly states his desire to have some
one of the citizens of The Dalles publicly
utter a falsehood. Why he should de
sire any man to lie thus to the public is
hard to understand. Why deny the
truth? The truth is, the executive com
mittees of tho Street Fair Association
and the Driving Association met in jiint
session and after interviewing the lead
ing contributors to the former fund
mutually agreed to the transfer of $500,
which amount was left over as a surplus
fund from the carnival. This amount
will enable the Driving Association to
finish and complete a half-mile track on
the ground selected by it committee.
In return for this favor the track and
inclosed grounds of the Driving As
sociation will be at the disposal of the
District Fair Association once a year, at
such time as the latter association may
choose, the track and grounds to be ttie
property and under the control of the
Driving Association the remaining por
tion of the year. These are the facts
connected with this affair and it is hard
to understand why "J" should wish any
one to deny them. It may be in place
to state that we believe, weie the truth
known, "J'" contribution to the carni
val fund was largely made up of advice,
freely and gratuitously given, since no
one of the large contributor to that
fund made any objection whatever to
the transfer as made.'
It is difficult to know just what "J"
would have a race track be. It is plain
that to race on the road is a much a
race as on a track built for that purpose.
Should the roads around The Dalle be
put in tho condition he suggests, there
would in all probability be more than
one race between "J" and his friends
as reel for a fiiendly brush. The road
would then he u race track and as such
"would be a matter of distress to the
best fiiends of the town," besides "J"
would be guilty of growing "horsey"
and thus be lost to all decency. He
says in his article: "Wo all enjoyed
the carnival, many of us much more
than the fairs of year past, because ol
the apparent absence of the 'horsey'
element. This adjective is not derived
from the noblo animal we all admire
and love, hut rather from the style of
men that hang around him, and many
of n were clad that something was at
lapt found which could be a source of
pure enjoyment to the multitude with
out lirintrinic this 'horsey' element into
prominence." Let n see. We are
glad "J" says that the element from
abroad during the carnivxl was not a
"horsey" element. The "Midway," for
ex unpin, was not a "horsey" element.
We lire more than willing to concede
him this point. The fakir which lined
our rtreet and robbed the unsuspecting
of ttieir loose change, these were not of
tho "horsey" element. We admit this,
an I as one who has lived around The
Dalles for the past ten y?ar, and who
appreciated the carnival and its success,
I can truthfully say that there never
ha- been as large a class of disreputable
an I of j-ct ionahle characters attending
any meeting of the district fairs of these
year pai as attended our street fair
durinit last month.
1 1. may bo well to remind "J" that
h -fi he speaks slightingly of the men
wil l are know n as "horsey" men, he is
refi-'ri-.tf m hi. iin"ii irs. We should
not foigei tnat such men as I.eland Stan
ford, who founded Stanford University,
the pride of the Pacific coast, was a
"horsey" man and pioprietor of the
Palo Alto stables and training ground.
Marcus Daly, Montana' copper king,
himself a philanthropist, wasa'"horsey"
man and developed and raced some of
the finest horses this country has known.
Robert J. Bonner was so "horsey" that
he paid $ 40,000 for Maud S, and no man,
where he was known, was more highly
resected than he. President U. S.
Grant was a "horsey" man and paid a
handsome amount for his famous Ara
bian stallion, which was his pride fur
years. Admiral S.iiiuson is alto
"horsey" man and thinks nothing of en
gagiriK in a friendly bmh on the speed
way a he drive a fast and lancy pair.
And last, but by no means least. Presi
dent McKinley drives a pair of race
horst , and a rival can have a race heo
ever condition are favorable. These are;
a few of the "horsey" meu, the kind "J"
refer to so slightingly in hi article.
Somehow or other the "horsey" eleiuent
have a way of boi-omlti1 prominent in
all circles of life, "J" to the contrary
notwithstanding.
If there is anything further to be said
upon this matter by Tin Ciikonhi.k
correspondent, I sugirest that he be mau
enough to sign his name.

Pretty IMaqare That I an He Mad )f
riaater of I'aria and Colored
l'lt-tare.
A burst of ingeiMiity seems to have
centered it-elf in u new plaster of paris
plaque. It hi!- coiue as u welcome way
of preserving some of the exiiiisite col
ored heads and floral pictures which
we yearly have sent to us on calendars-.
A little gond taste and consider
able nimlileness of tinkers is all that
is reiiui.cd, in addition loan ngnteware
piephite, some p':itr of paris and
water, n knife, it hit of tape and a cur
tain ri.iy, with a pretty colored picture
which nils' been neatly cut out from
its background, and a bottle of gilt
paint. These various things ure then
handled in the fo;!owiii! way: At first
the plute should be tilitd with water,
which, however, is soon tossed out
again, the object bring" simply to have
a moist surface. The picture is then
taken up and placed fnce downward
in the center of the plate. As soon us
it is seen that it mihtres to it quite
closely the plaster of paris, which han
previously been niixnl w it h water untit
it is smooth ami of the consistency of
thic k criam. is pouinl in upon it. unit
in sullicicr.t quantity to fill the plate
up to the very top. Here, then, the
knife is useful in smoothing it over.
At this point, iilso. a contrivance is
an iintrcd for hiicjfir.g up the plaque
in the f -it ure. The piece cf tape with a
curtain ring on one end of it i pressed
down in the p'aster. w here it soon hard
ens into permanency. As soon as it is
found that the plaster is suOiciently
hard, the knife can be slipped around
the edges of the plate to facilitate the
whole turning out well. When this is
accomplished the picture will appear
as though it had been painted upon
the pure white surface of the paste.
Should, by any means, the plaster have
slipped under the picture, it can tie
readily willed eft' while it ia still fresh.
The gilt paint Is used to make a border
about the plaque. It appears well, eith
er as a stiff band or when it is stippled
u little.
In the making' of these plaques, says
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, much of
their success depends upon the choice
of the picture. Hy far the prettiest
one that has so far been seen was u
young girl's head, crowned with a
wreath of flaming; popples. All elsr
that was part icuia rly fit. t ici able alio.it
her were her filmy green draperies. To
further offset its beauty, the plaque
was hung upon a sage green back
ground. CIGAR STUBS OF CRIMINALS.
They Hits m Generic Similarity of
Valu as Clim lo Ih Do
tecllvc.
According to Prof. Han Gross, of
Berlin, valuable clews toward the de
tection of criminals may be obtained
through an examination of cigar tips.
Of course, this applies to those wln
smoke cigars the tips of which they
carelessly throw away in the street oi
elsevvherc, tay the London News.
"If you pick up any tip." he say?,
"and examine it closely the chances art
that you will be able to learn some
thing as to the personality and social
position of the man w ho threw it away.
In the case of criminals the first point
to be considered is t he manner in which
it was cut off from the cigar. If a
knife or any other Instrument wai
used for this purpose, then this instru
ment will doubtless be found on the
criminal. If, on the other hand, it was.
bit off with the teeth, a thorough ex
amination of the tip will show what
kind of teeth were used for this pur
pose. "A man with a row of even teeth will
bite off the end of his cigar squarely
