The wind b from the north-eaiit, blowing fifty-two union sn hour and extend gen erally over the entire lake region. Half a doz-n Mdiooiiers and smaller crafts have foiiwk-rrd olf this city during the day: a score or more are dismantled and stove in, making an a I moat hopeless (Ik'lit agitimit the gale and thehuge waves that every few minutes sweep over them, nrutiiriiri.ririff IliA livjta nf flirtuA arliri .ra ! atlll ,n !,ar,t I r l.ua liA.n ,?atr rxi heroic efTort and great suffering for the lifo-aaviug crews scattered along the shore. At leant thirty vesaels anchored outaide the harbor wailing for the storm tonubeide. All are more or less damaged and the signals of dintrehs that have siH-ured among them from time to time during the day have kept life-savers bury. Twenty-five or thirty men have been brought in, all exhausted and suffering intensely from the ezKwure and cold. In several cases help arrived too late and a corpse waa tound among the half conscious sailors, who, lienumbed by the cold and unable to protect them selves, were almost beaten to death by the furious waves. At night the wavea bad not abated, and every hour increases the peril of llioce aboard of the numer ous vexsela outside the hsibor, pulling st their anchors and in imminent danger of being brought into collision with each other, or of being pounded to pieces on the bendies. bcenes of horror, that chilled the blood of thousands of spectators, were enacted in the harbor for two miles below the Illinois Central depot in the early evening. As the storm increased in violence during the afternoon, the waves grew mountains high, dashing over the breakwater, de luging the tracks and enveloping the passing Irakis w ith torrents of spray. Oeityltei B t ill 8uilUg Tralni. St. Paul, May 19- Two hundred Cox- ey ites from Washington captured a North ern Pacific train at Heron, near the Idnho-Watihington line, this morning, and were not intercepted nntil Arlee, a elation 145 miles cast, was reached. So soon as word was received at the com pany's headquarters, General Manager Keinlrick called Uon the war depart ment for asHistani e in regaining possess ion of the stolen train, and orders were issued at once to the troops stationed at Fort Missoula. At the same time, Mr. Kendricks ihsueil orders to the superin- tendants on all divisions affected to offer every obstruction possible to the passage of the train consistent with safety. The Heron mub was In chargo of Engineer Hoss. They proceeded eastward from Heron at something like forty miles an hour. Kails wete torn up at several places, and a slide of rock blocked the train at Paradise, but all obstacles were overcome, and the men ran the train as far as Arlee, where it was taken irto custody by United States Deputy Marshal lleally. The men will be held at Arlee tonight, and in the morning be taken to Helena for trial in the United States court. No one was hurt and no shots were fired. Btriker'i Fendliti Plot. Wii.KKsiiARRK, Pa. May 19. A plot for fiendishness which has never been equaled in the annals of crime ifl this section, was nipped in the bud today through the confession of one of the Keystone colliery rioters. He said the strikers bad secured nine kegs of giant powder, almost enough to destroy half the city, and secreted them near the house of foreman Heslops. This even ing, had it not been for the arrest of tha ringleaders of yesterduy's riot, it was the intention of the strikers to put the powder under the bouses of all the bosses of the mines and set it off. The result would have been semething terrible, taking into consideration the families of the bosses, who number nearly 100 persons. Despite this evi dence against the ringleaders of the riotous Hungarians, the six men who were taken into custody this morning were today admitted to bail. The nine kegs of powder were secured by the officers. Balem'i Grand Republican Bally. Salkm, Or., May 19. This has been red letter doy in the history of republi canism of Salem and Marion county. Notwithstanding that the rains of last night rendered the streets muddy and everything disagreeable, the republican demonstration tonight was an immense affair. The parade was the largest of the kind ever in the city, and the finest also. Thiaisdue to a ureal extent to the visiting clubs from Portland, Multor por and Greenleaf, with a large number from Independence and other towns. The Poitlanders arrived here about ft :.'j0, and their beautiful uniforms and their fine drills cantured the eeiof the crowd. Tha opera house being far too small to accommodate the people, speaking was held on the eaat portico of the conrt house, Charles Fulton spoke an hour and twenty-five minutes, and it was a masterly efTort. TEACHERS9 COLUMN Ail communications, rolls tf honor, and monthly school reports, should be sent to Mrs. II. 8. Gibson, Oregon City, IJf THICOIKTV SCHOOL. The great business of our school is character building We meet this statement more and more frequently, which is evidence that more and more it is growing in the consciousness of the public that the highest purpose of our schools is not instruction, is not skill in action, is not to fit for citizenship, even. It is to make worthy men and women and these other aims, good as they sre, are really incidental to the main pur pose. Xow, what I want to say in this article is, that in no other school sre the conditions so favorable for the best suc cess in this work as in the country school where things are as they ought to be. In the country school the personality of the teacher counts for vastly more than in any other. There are several reasons for this. The teacher is a more important personage in the community, there ate fewer distracting influences to counteract his influence, and the pei sonal relation between teacher and pupil are or may be closer than else where. Of all the outside forces which tend to the formation of character, especially in the case of children, personalty is doubt less the most potent. Certainly in the country schools the teacher has vastly more power to adjust the environment of the child than in the city. Doubtless in the future, as in the past, a very large proportion of the men and women wbo shall move the world when thirty years have gone, will be found aa children in the country school . Oh 1 for teachers there, who have heart and head and sympathy, to train them right and who have insight to appreciate and to im prove their splendid opportunity. E.C. II. in The Public School Journal Mrs. Emma Storts, one of the best and most successful teachers in Oregon was in town last week, the guest of Mrs. H. S. Gibson. Mrs. StorU taught four years at Clackamas, and is now teach ing near Woodburn, Marion county. BCItOOL BKPOBTS.

TWO OF TIIE CIIH.DKE5 I'ERlMlf. fire Diseererrd About Midnight The Inmates Aroused But Too Late To Escape McMiNxviLLi , May J2. The residence of M. Shadden, one of the oldest and most respected citizens In the commun ity, was burned at midnight. Mrs. Shadden's 10-;ear old daughter perished in the flames, and Mr. ShaiMen's young est son, a boy of 9, received fatal injuries. Mrs. Ma'tba Shadden, 80 years of age, and a pioneer of 1842, and her blind son Riley were taken from the burning building naked. It is feared the aged woman will not survive the shock. Mr. and Mrs. Shadden barely escaped with their lives. It was the most horrible holocaust ever known in this section of the state, and the town is almoat in a frenzy of excitement. The burned build ing was a large frame structure, situated n tar the center oi the city, and was said lo be the first residence erected in Mc Minnville. It was burned to the ground. The residence of Judge Galloway, situ ated just across the street, was only saved after a bard fight, the fire was discovered a few minutes after midnight, by a passer-by, who at once aroused the sleeping family. Mr. Shadden was first aroused, and bv the time he had carried his wile into the open air, the building was in flames. Single-handed he fought them back while he secured his sged mother and blind brother. An effort was made to rescue the boy, who slept on the second floor. The poor little fellow was badiy burned, and in bis Agony jumped into the street. The par boiled fleh across his abdomen was burst open, and bis bowel') gushed forth. In his suffering and pain, he begged those about him to kill him . Skillful surgeons did all they could to relieve his awful sufferings. At a late hour he is still living, but the surgeons say bis death is a certainty. The l'ttle girl whose life was sacrificed had evidently attempted to make ber way out of Ihe building, but was lost in the awful roar of flames and smoke, and lay down to meet ber fate. She was not seen after the fire was discovered, and not nntil alter the smouldering ruins were cleared away were her charred re mains recovered. The lower limbs were burned entirely away, and the remain der of the body was burned beyond rec ognition. The frenzied parents of the children rushed about the burning build ing in awful agony. Friends and kind neighbors could scarcely restrain them from throwing themselves headlong into the flames. Later Howard Shadden, the 9-year- old boy burned in the Shadden residence this morning, died today . His abdomen was torn open by striking on a picket fence when he leaped from the window. Scores of cartridges were exploded in the fire, sending out bullets and scatter ing tbe firemen. Nettie Guild, a servant girl, sleeping with the little girl, jumed from the bed screaming for tbe tittle girl to run for her life. She ran down stairs, through the flames, alarming the other sleepers in time to escape.
