A ain gular condition of thinga ia aaid by the Corvallia Timea to exiat among numerous band of ahcep in Benton county. No Icaa than a doxeu aheep owner have recently discovered one or two ecabby sheep in a flock of healthy onea. The fact of finding one or two budly diseased aheep among othera perfectly healihy, and in ao many caaea haa led thoae familiar with the occurrence to believe that tbe thing ha not happened by chance, but the icabby aheep have been placed In healthy flocka by deeign. It ia, of oourae hard to believe that there are persons in the country who could do o dastardly an act, but it might be well for aheep growora to keep a weather eye on their band. Bebved Him Rioht.

He waa a still, tmall man and made no proteat, a the assistant's raxor bobhed around hia noae. By the time 6J minutes were over the boss barber was comb ing hia man' hair. Half a minute later the aasiatant waa done. The as istant'a man started out without paying. Tho aasiatant followed him. Wheie'a my pay?" he aaked. "What will you give me for 'my aore face!" returned the other "You'll never ahave me again," and then he hauled off and hit the barber on the atarbnard of the jaw. The barber didn't think it worth while to run alter him, but he said he would have him arrra ed.. The war rant haa not beeu a-ked for, however. PBIMONAL AND LOCAL.

Mr. Hltt re ported in the house this morning aa soon a It had been called to order, and asked unanimous cooseut, for tbe consideration of a bill to empower the president to appoint a commission to conamer the Venezuela . boundary qnestfon, and an appropriation of 9100,000 for the expense thereof. The text of the bill ia a follow: "Bo it enacted by the senate and house of representatives of the United Slates of America, In congreaa tassem bled, that the sum of $100,000 or so much thereof aa may be necessary, be and the same is hereby appropriated for the expense of a commission to be appointed by the president to in vestigate and report npon the true diviaional line between the republic of Venezuela and British Quiana." A scene of considerable excitement followed the requeat for unanimous consent to consider the bill, which had been loudly applauded when read by the clerk. Boutelle stated that he dialiked to object to the consideration of such bill, "but," aald he, "it aeema that thi subject is one of such aerioua import ance that the house of representative should proceed in a decorous manner to consider it. The president' mes sage waa read but yeaterday, and it aeema to me the gentlemen may not be ready to pas upon a bill of thia importance without deliberation." Crioa of "Ready, ready," from the republican aide interrupted Boutelle, but he proceeded, urging that the matter waa one which affected the relatione of the two great English speaking nations ot the world." Speaker JJocb the gentleman object? Boutelle aaid he had merely sue gested the hope that the bill would go to the committee. Hitt announced that ho had only desired to y a word concerning the bill and it purpose. He would do so, he said, ''Without mentioning thia side or that aide, for be hoped there would not be two sides when it came to a question like this. There waa a re quest made by the president for help from the bonae to enable him to exer cise hia executive functions. "The thing for ua to remember as patriots," said Hitt. "i that the auccesa of our country depend upon our maintain ing a united front, and that our gov ernment should apeak for all the peo ple of the United States." The sug gestion of the president was for judi cial investigation. He was sure it was made in the proper spirit, and the oc ca-ion required that the country should act a one man. We have had a long time to consider the Monroe doctrine; we may not agree with all the details outlined by the president and Secretary Olney, but any discus jiou here will prove a help to those acroaa the aea. 1 nope ine Din win pass." Hitt moved the previous question but Crisp aecured permission to eay a word. He began: "I apeak for all this side of the house, where there is no division aa to the propriety of passing the bill. This house respectfully invited Great Brit ain to arbitrate the boundary question between Venesuolaand British Guiana and sue bat declined, now wuat are we to do? If the American people have a fixed opinion on any question it is that no European country cau acquire territory on the American continent by force." Hilt entreated Crisp, in view of tbe magnitude of the iuteresta involved not to precipitate a hasty discussion. Crisp replied that the republicans bad introduced the bill be attempted to brine in yesterday, and continued, saying that if the boundary could not be ascertained by arbitration wiih the participation of Great Britain, the United Statea should ascertain it at onoe, "and when we have ascertained where it ia," he concluded, "we should have the courage and manhood to maintain it." McCreary and Boutelle were shout ing for recognition, but Hitt refused to yield tbe floor, and the previous quea tion waa carried with a ahout of "ayes' and no opposing voice. IN THE SENATE. The committee on foreign relation today decided to sit during holiday re cess for the consideration of the Ven ezuela queation in it entirety. It ia the intention to take it up in all its phases, and to that end they will have before them all the report and docu ment bearing upon the subject. The result of thia inquiry in all prob ability, will be a resolution defining the position of the United States on the Venezuelan dispute, coupled witb the declaration of the Monroe doctrine. The republicans will oontinue their efforts to have the committee filled before the adjournment for the holi days in order to give the proceedings full weight. There is no uouui ex pressed in any quarter that congress will grant the requeat of the president to be allowed to appoint a commission to consider the question, but the feol ing in congress appears to be that con great should conduot an inquiry of its own. It would not be necessary, it is eaid, at the senate, for the committee to leave the United Statea for all maps, surveys, treaty and other documents are said to be available in Washing ton. It is presumed that the Venez uela government would be willing to supply any papers in ita poaossion, which might be wanted. There is also talk of the necessity of completing the organization of tbe committee on naval affairs, with the view of baviDg it ait durinst recess. Chandler's bill to strengthen the military armament, which, wiih others, will require early consideration in case complications reach a more aoule sluge, reads as follows : "That the president be, and he is hereby authorized and direoted to strengthen the military armament by adding thereto equipment for the use of 1,000,000 rifle, 1000 guns for field artillery and not exceeding 6000 heavy gun for fortification; to be procured by manufacture in the arsenals or by contract for manufacture, or by di rect purchase in the country, or else where, according to the direction of tbe president, who ahall conform. when practicable and without unwise delay, to th method prescribed for making contracts and purchase by existing law. The sum of $1,000,000 is hereby approprlted to carry, into effect the provisions of this act." Grout today introduced in the bouse a bill for the appropriation of $100,000, 000 for defenae of the seaboard and Canadian frontier. Tbe bill proposes to raise the fund by 80-year 3 per cent coin bonda in several denomina tions, to be (old at the tdbtreasurie and postofflce. Lightning on a Tear. Tillamook, Or., Dee. 16. Friday there wa an unusual electric display In tbl vi cinity. There were sa veral vivid displays of sheet lighlniug across the heavens, seem ing to permeate all space with flashes of fire, acoompanled with tremendous crashes of thunder. Several trees and bouses were struck, though no serious damage was done. Tbe public school building was struck and balls of fire rolled around permlscuously In very room, causing a panic among the school children. Mors than half a dozen children were burned, causing blisters, and the clothing on several was burned more or less, and a number bad to be carried home. Tbe physicians were busy (or a while, but, strange to say, no serious con sequences resulted, except to Charles Peter son's little girl, who is still confined to her bed, suffering from several well defined burns and severe nervous prostration. The same phenomenon waa noticed in several dwelling houses, and aeveral cases of elec trical burns are reported. Lightning came into the telegraph office, but did little dam age there. Nothing like it wa ever seen before, so all say, and it seems tbe whole locality was pervaded with the peculiar el ectrical demonstration. The storm was fol lowed by a very low barometer.
