The Ingram Case. The Statesman
publishes the decision in the Ingram
case as follows : The State of Oregon vs
Frank 8 Ingram. Linn county, R 1'
Boise, judge. Defendant appeals, aftirm
ed. George E Chainber'ain, attorney
general, and H H Hewitt,for respondent.
J K Weatherford and W R Hi lye o, for
appellant Per Curiam: The defendant
was indicted for murder in the first de
gree, tried and convicted of murder in the
second degree and sentenced to the pen
itentiary during his natural life. The
first error presented is as to the challen
ges of certain jurors for actual bias, which
were overruled by the trial eourt. The
objection is raised under sub-division 2,
section 185, Hill's code. The facts dis
close that in empanneling the jury at the
trial of the cause, the defendant by his
counsel challenged one George McHargue
touching his qualifications to act as a
juror upon the ground that he had
formed an opinion as to the guilt or inno
cence of the defendant from reading the
newspaper account of Lis first trial, and
that such opinion was a fixed one, but
upon examination by the court stated
that he should form his opinion from the
evidence, if he was taken as a juryman,
and that he had no opinion that would
affect his judgment, after hearing all the
testimony. Thete was no error State
v. Tom. 8 Or. 177 ; Kumli v. S P R R Co,
21 Or. 505. In this last case.thia subject
was thoroughly examined, and is decisive
of the point there involved. The next
objection is to the introduction of the
oapers in the contest over the will of the
father of the deceased, which shows that
the prisoner was disinherited while the
deceased was amply provided for. It
also shows that the evidence of the de
ceased was about to be taken shortly be
fore he was killed, but the taking of his
deposition was objected to by the defend
ant and the hear. he ; be! ore the referee
continued. The object o! this evidence
was to show the motive of the prisoner
Rnit til a raloh'na aviminn Kn I
parties. Under the circumstances, we I
mink, mere was no error, and that.as a
consequence, the judgment must be
affirmed.
Whaxs in Ir. Somebody is greatly
disturbed over Albany's new chemical
engine. An anonymous cot respondent
from San Francisco, probably a rival,
says: Taken from 8an Miguel, Cal.,
Times, of Dec. ist, 1S92. "He was fol
lowed by T C Slusrer. He had seen this
summer standing out on a street in
Bakersfield a chemical engine (Lindgren
Mahon make) which for some time past
had been out of order, or, as an Irate
citizen expressed himself. 'The damned
thing wouldn't work.' The Bakersfield
machine had been purchased less than five
months previous to the above. This is
same make ot engine as was just purchased
by Rescue H & L Co." And the Junction
City Times says : "Albany has purchased
a chemical engine. Chemical engines
are rank frauds and Albany will regret its
investment inside of a year.providlrig they
have occasion to use it. These engines
work to perfection when first charged,but
after that the action of the acids renders
them worthless when most needed."
This, though, is not the verdict of the
Tacoma Fire Department. The matter
though it a public one and the Democrat
is here to give the news.
A Birds Perch The arc lights serve
for a very nice purpose besides illumin
ating the streets. At the corner of First
and Ferry streets, up under the cover to
the light where it is warm and well pro
tected, every night seven or eight little
birds have been in the habit of rnnstinir
for several months, flying away when
day light comes. Some times one of
them falls down into the carbons, only
to be stunned. The electric light men
re posted and last night one was siten
to let down the light and again place the
dated bird on his perch among his com
panions. Something pretty about the
whole matter.
Til Korb's Economy. The Astoria n
tells the following on Marion countv-s
great rcgnomltt. They are having con
siderable, sport in Salem over Tillmon
Ford's alleged economy. While he was
savorting over the representative hall ves
terdav in the interest of the homy-handed
son of toil, he overturned three ink bottles,
deluging the new body Brutsells carpet
with the black liquid, and probably en
tailing more expense on the state than te
will be able to save with all his drastric
reform measures. Ford is nothing if not
Pennoyeresque, but doe not seem to be,
sdvancing his gubernatorial candlcacy.
Knocked Down and Robbed. The
Oregonian ol Thursday ay: "T A Gil
bert, a young men in the employ of
""Eggert, Young ic Co, was knocked down
at the corner ef Fifth and Yamhill meets,
about 9 o'clock last night and robbed ot
$5. The tnieves overlooked a goid watch
he had placed in an intide pocket. The
highwaymen evidently used a sandbang."
Irlr Gilbert at one time resided in Eugene,
and was a clerk in O E Kiausse's shoe
store, also in Salem, where he was
knocked down several months ago for rob
bery.
Those Cloth Machines. Mr H F
Hollenbeck, who recently obtained a
patent on a device for measuring cloth,
has received word that a number of the
machines have been manufactured and he
expects them here in a short lime. The
machine is a simple one, and one that no
dry goods merchant can afford to do with
out. By simply turning a crank the cloth
is measured and the price of the same is
recorded in fnll view. It will pay for
Itself In one invoice, and is a great lrbor
saver every day in the year. Eugene
Register. This is the machime Invented
by Mr Hollenbeck, Mr Geo Wilcox and
Mr Wandel, in this city . The former two
have charge of the invention and trill
endeavor to make it pay.
Pkkpetual Motion. A I'matilla coun
ty man named Jacob Mills is said to have
discovered perpetual motion. His device is
a three wheeled concern, each wheel being
et above the other, and is operated by
chains and balls. The latter are about the
size of a large marble, anj ate contained in
buckets. They drop in such a manner from
chain to chain that they keep the wheels con
tinually revolving. The speed Is regulated
by means of a spring, and the machine can
be stopped at will. The inventor has all
his life turned his attention to Invention,
which explains the fact that he is poor. He
has been at work on the perpetual motion
racket since he was twelve years old, snd his
sge is now tbres score and five, so it will be
teen that be has bad time enough to do con
siderable thinking.

A Very Bold Burglary occurred yes
terday afternoon in the residence ot Mr
Conrad Meyer, at the corner of Fifth and
Calapooia streets. Mrs Meyer and the
children had gone out, and Mary Hkelley,
after doing up the work, locked all the
doors and went to visit a friend. Some
one evidently watching proceedings
pried open a rear window, entered the
house and stole $76 in money, consisting
of two $20 pieces, two f 10 pieces and 16
in nickels and dimes, belonging to the
two Meyer boys, these were taken from
a toy bank, which was afterwards screwed
together and lift, as at first, 5 in silver
and a gold medal belonging to Miss
Skelley, received in graduating from the
Sisters school. Some gold watches and
jewelry were taken from their cases, but
left in the house. A revolver belonging
to Mr Meyer, with his name engraved
on it, and a gold charm, were also taken.
Every drawer in the house was opened.
No clue was obtained to the robbery.
The next door neighbor even was away
from home. The burglary was discovered
in the evening too late to get an v track
of the very bold thief, or probably thieves,
who did the deed. Three men ho left
on the night freight for the north acted
suspiciously and may have been the men.
Rossbcros B. & L. A, The mortgages
outstanding January 1st, 1892 were $10,
400 snd at the close of the year about
$27,000. There are abort 392 shares of
stock t-.ken of the par value ot $200 each,
the amount paid in for monthlv dues
during last year was $4,951 and interest
to the amount of $2,365 accrued. Fines
imposed on delinquent $77- Expense
fee, $194. Secretary Arrington is ceitain
that the stock will reach par value
within three years at wbich time it will
be necessary to wind up the affairs of the
asosciation as it was organised as a single
issue company. If Mr Arrington is cor
rect and he generally is.it will mean that
the stockholders will draw down $200 in
three year- more as the result of having
invested one dollar per month for seven
years or a total of $84. As most of the
stockholders have five shares, this will
mean that each so fortunate will have
$1000 in return for a nionthlj saving of
five dollars. This practical result will
demonstrate more than any words can
the benefit of these associations. Re

after going s short distance from the

claim that title until some one wrested
it from him " Whereupon Edmonds
stated that "the present wss ss good
tims ss sny for him to provs his right to
retain that title," be at once placing
himself in a defiant attitude. After the
fight commenced and had been in dura
tion a short time, the combatants
clinched, Wheeler turoi.e his adver

Edmonds wss in thst posture, Wheeler
struck him several times with a knife.

Many second-class brands of baking powder
are urged upon consumers at the price of the
high-cost, first-class Royal.
These powders, because of the inferior quality
of their ingredients, cost much less than the
Royal, besides being of 27 per cent less strength.
If they are forced upon you, see that you are

One cannot help bat wonder mbf it ia
that " U Dele Tom 's Cabin" always proves
a drawing card, and yet there ia nothing
very wonderful about it when once the
plot and presentation of this realistic
drama ia taken into consideration. We
have read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" as
many as twenty times and always with
absorbing interest, and so, too, we have
seen it presented on the stage forty limes,
and it seems aa it we enjoy tha last
better than any previous rendition.
There aie some plays like "Uncle Tom's
tlabin" and -Rip Van Winkle" that will
never wear oat. There is that aboot the
plot of -Uncle Tom's Cabin eombina
