HUET BY EXPLODING CARTRIDGE la Kovr Recoveriasr From. ia ZZIzress "Waicla. at One Time Threat ' ened Erin Life. Tlctim of a painful accident suffered while enduring the horseplay of an initia tion ceremony, William W. Gordon, traveling agent of Fisher, Thorsen & Co., has lain on a sick bed for three weeks, and passed through an Illness which made trained physicians and nurses despair of keeping the vital spark aglow. Gordon's sudden sickness, when hale and strong the day before, and the peculiar circumstances surrounding it, have all con spired to create a large-sized neighbor hood mystery on the East Side, encircling his home on East Seventh and Ash etreets, but baffling In solution when the Gordon residence was approached. On the evening of September 14, Gordon was being Initiated Into the Travelers I on Friday, October 12, to The Dalles, leav Protective Association, a fraternal and In- I ing Union Depot at 9 A. M. and returning 6urance order. All that went on that nignt leaving The Dalles about 7:80 P. M., thus Is hidden by the shroud of mystery that veils the ritual of any secret organiza tion from the view of the crowd. Tneso facts stand out: In the midst of the Ini tiation ceremonies perhaps beautiful in their symbolism, impressive in their rev elations, or uproarious in their mtrth- creatlng Qualities Gordon, In the regular course of the initiation, was struck with a stuffed club. There was an explosion startling, net to the lodge members who had all passed through the mill, but to Gordon, who did net expect it. When he uttered a cry of pain and gave unmistakable signs of being seriously Injured, the lodge cere monies were stopped at once. Physi cians were sent for, and the air was .full of cries of surprise at the unexpected termination of the Initiation rites. The stuffed club was loaded, and the explosion was the natural result of the fblow struck. Stuffed clubs used in initia tions are loaded on one side .with a cartridge charged with powder. The vic tim is struck; the club explodes; sur prise and chagrin of the victim arouse mirth and laughter of the onlookers. But Gordon had been struck with the wrong side of the club. The force or the blow drove the cartridge through his flesh like a punch, and the mechanism of the clxib at the same time exploded the powder charge Internally, tearing open a wound three Inches in "depth to. the region of the lower spine, making a .painful and dangerous wound. When the physicians arrived they Imme diately administered to his comtort, cleansing the wound, and having him as sisted home. All concerned- were pledged to Tseep the unfortunate affair a secret. For a week Gordon's progress was rapid. Everything seemed to be progressing fa vorably, and the -wound seemed to be healing well. Then, as the physicians feared, an attack of lockjaw set In, due to the poison introduced Into the system through the tissues affected by tne In ternal explosion. A piece of his trousers had Teen blown into the wound at tne time of the explosion. In this way the tetanic bacillus was introduced into the system with almost fatal results. The physicians .fought this lockjaw attack with all their skill, using the serum of the antl-tetanlc bacillus. At times all hope was given up. Gordon seemed to i be burning up with fever and his vitality was very low. Yesterday he seemed to he improving, and he was pronounced out of danger, and the assertion positively made that he "would recover. When Gordon was auestloned as to the accident, he refused to commit himself on Important details, though Interposing no objection to their publication. His wife said yesterday: "Yes, Mr. Gordon lias been very 111, and at .times, very low. However, the fever Is now broken and he Is getting on nicely. The' accident happened Friday venJnir. Seotrmbpr 14. At first he was able to be about, 'but he grew worse (Jwhen 4he fever came. As to the circumstances of the accident, Mr. Gordon has oot even related the details to me." HOW BEAS0K WAS SLAIN. Detective Slxifmons Tells of So nth Bend Murder. Detective Sam Simmons returned yester day from South Bend, Was"h., where he has been four weeks working up the evi dence In the Beason murder case. "The case is very interesting." said De tective Simmons. ""Captain William Bea con, of P. J. McGowan's steam launch that was running,. on Willapa Harbor, was murdered the night of August 29. it was very dark, and he was running the launch alone. Between 9 and 10 he Tan into a net belonging to two fishermen, Manuel Gates, a Spaniard, and Laurits Olsen, a Norwegian. ""There is quite a blftr feeling between the fishermen and the teamboatmen, and these two had sworn at the next man to run over their nets would be the last. They attacked him, besbhfm with hoat oars, cut his throat, anq, threw the body overboard. They found belr net was. so ehtahgled with the launch that they could apt set It adrift. So they" were compelled to beach It to get it Xree,and brought it J In Rough Effects Cheviots from 50e to $2.60 yard. Pianther Cloths, from $L(B to $3.K yard. Unfinished Worsted, from JL60 to $2U yard. Zibelines. from $L0Q to 53.00 yard. Weaves to South Bend, where they claimed sal vage, saying they had found the launch adrift, and supposed Beason was drowned. They were arrested on suspicion, but re leaped the next day, because of no ,evl dence Jo hold them. Meantime they were preparing to leave. Gates for Chill, and Olsen for San ITranclsco. Before they got away the body was found, with Its evi dences of murder. The men were re arrested and held to the Circuit Court without bonds. We have the strongest kind of a circumstantial case against the men, and the state will call at least 40 witnesses, when the trial Is held, Novem ber 12."

SIerdxtLns Too Bar With, the Fall Trade for a Trip to Lewiston. The Chamber of Commerce has re ceived invitations to The IJalles Harvest Carnival and Fair, October 12, and the ILewiston, Idaho, Interstate Fair, Octc ber 14 to 20. As The Dalles is a near-by town, it is probable hat a number of Portland business men will go. Lewiaton, is almost too far away, and besides the Fall trade opens big, and merchants can not neglect their affairs for so long a trip.

Benton Killin In The Oresonlan, October 3, 1890. "When the intelligence and character of the country are beaten and in subjection, and Mr. Bryan placed in power, he and his plat form clearly say to his followers: 'You can loot, you can burn, you can Tape, you can murder, and there will be no troops called out to interfere.' With these facts and conditions undisputed and openly put forward for the purpose of securing the votes of the idle, crim inal and disloyal, it is plainly the duty of every well-wisher of our country to stand actively and firmly together against Bryan and the forces behind him." For many years Mr. Killin was prominent in the councils of the Democratic party of Oregon. The Chicago platform drove him out of the party in 1896, and "imperialism" has not drawn him back. He is-for McKlnley. ooooooooooo0O0O000000ae9 vitation. President Taylor, of the Cham ber of Commerce, wrote as follows yes terday to President Kettenbach, of ,the interstate fair: "While fully realizing the great Im portance of your section of country and that it would be greatly to our interest to visit you, thereby cultivating closer ?siness relations, we must decline, ow lngr t0 the fact that our business- men nitvc uvea, away a gooo. aeai lately ana cannot at present spare" the time, which, please be assured, is our only reason for not accepting your kind "invitation."

Eddie, Foy, with his company, playing "A Night In Town," did not appear last night at the Marquam Theater, as ad vertised, on account of an annoying de lay er route. , The train from the south upon which the company was journeying was so late last night that the management of the theater decided it would not be fair to keep its patrons waiting, so decided with regret to cancel last night's engagement. However. Mr. Helllg takes pleasure In be ing able to keep Foy and his comedy here, even for one day. "A "Night in Town" will be played here but once, as tonlght3 attraction.

Blnger Hermann writes Secretary Dunl way, of the Republican State Commit tee, that he met with cordial receptions In his canvass of Washington and Idaho for 'McKlnley.

After four years of Republican Administration, Mr. Fenton sees no reason ' why he should change his views , upon National Issues. The fact that he has consented to deliver the address of the evening Insures a strong, forcible presentation of the issues that are confronting the American -people in this campaign.
