Probably the mcst interested spectators of the Waite performance last night were E A Schiffler and Ed Blodgett. Looking down through the scuttle hole on the top . of the building with an umbrella over them they were free from observation; but lieing directly over the cabinet could see every movement of the medium. Bow Harry Waite operated will be of interest to our readers . Of course he had been ex mined, but the examination was very in complete. Immediately upon the curtui&Y eing closed before him he looked all round above him to see whether any .one as watching him. Then he deftly pulled me ropes from a secret place at his neck, d quickly tied himself in such a way at while every thing seemed firm at his nees and hands he had complete use of is riht hand su"h is the peculiar cora ination of the ronea. He does not bib.. the hand out ; but the entire rope at his wrist goes with the movement. Vhen com pletely tied, his accomplice, the loctor. hands in the bag of ropes, tied ami sealed. This is interesting. The Doctor had deft tv fastened one bac around annthrr an Arranged that the bai? sealed is thn omniv ! one. Upon its being handed over the cur tain the "medium" pnlls the bag of ropes from ont the bag in the Doctor's hand and bides it on his person ;the Doctor drops the bag. it is placed in young Waite's lap, his hands come together and the curtain flies open, fhe bell ringing is sample. The "medium" has complete us of his right hand and uses it at will. He is quicker than greased lightning in his movements. Dr layne's handkerchief dropped in was dettly tied oy young Waite with the full use of both hands. Th dark handkerchief on his head was simply a duplicate, the same as the one coming out twisted. The horn was blown by the "medium" with his mouth ful I of water by a separate piece in his mouth, hence was not wet, and the mouth organ was not payed at all, but the piece in his mouth lightly. Every cabinet trick done waa with the same simplicity. He had plenty of time to untie himself, it was an easy job, though appearing to be done rapid y. The slate writing waa done at first in the cabinet by Wite of course. The four big slates were prepared in the basement. He could be seen to take them mere, ine envelopes ROHM when ar ranged in the right light could be easily seen through and the writing read. The figures of Mr Crawford on the late were read by the motion of his hand by Dr Waite and communicated to the "medium" by secret signs . One bell thrown in the air went so high as to nearly reach the observers above. The wigwam act, though not seen very well was as simple. The "mi tiuiu, ' though tied to the stake absolut ii I id complete use of his arms, och is the ar rangemeat, his hands leaving the stake instantly on the curtains closing, and hence the ease with which the coat waa removed and a larger coat put on, as well as the other tricks. The arrangement of the rope is of course a secret. Before the handcuff act young Waite went behind the scenes and was observed to take out and examine Lis handcuff keys, one a peculiar arrangement evidently for different kinds of handcuffs. Sheriff MeFo-on. Marshal Lee and D B Monteith plac 1 five hand cuffs on two chairs Three of them Waite handled very easily; but the others he could not manipulate for the reason that the holes had been filled with sealing wax after being locked . A good joke on the spirits. The table moving needs no explanat ion . The whole thing is seen to be very simple and merely very clever work, en tirely devoid of any spirit except the spirit for making money The show is a good one; but for two men to pass themselves off as mediums who are simply sleight of hand performers, no comment is necessary It is pnabiy simply in the line of Mr Bamum and most other showmen . Most of the public understand it and readily accept it as a part of the business. Mrs Talt is lying eerionsly ill at he home in this city. - Mr Arthur Porter, deputy P M, is eriously ill with appendicitis. Mr Mart Miller, of Knox Butte, is re ported dangerously with pneumonia. Hon Til Ford and Geo Bingham, of Salem. District Attorney McCain and O H Irvine, of McMinnville. are attending court. Mrs Leinenger, mother of Dr II A Leinenger, who has been in Albany six weeks on a visit left this noon for her home in Illinois. The farewell concert of the Swedish quartet was another success and showed he great appreciation of out citizens for heir cultured singing. Mr George Bruckman went to New port today, where he has the contract for erecting a cottage for Mr J M Ralston of this city, which promises to b one of the prettiest there. Mr Louis Brack man and Ed R M Carter will also go over this week and assist Mr Brack man. Miss Addle Schiffler's eleventh birth day was celele'orated at the home o! her lather, E A Schiffler, Saturday afternoon in a very pleasant young people's party. Besides the usual children's p ays a de licious lunch was served, when each guett was also favorrd with a basket of candy and bag of popcorn. On the other hand the visitors had brought their re membrances to the yonng boat. Those present were Misses Edith Smick, Mary Stewart, Vida Mas ton. Lottie Layton, - Frankie and Grace Payne, ttav Toole, Inez and Nellie Miller. Flossie Kuecht, Lena Viereck, Ora Harknets.

Afters Dtmtcrat: Everybody has read, or it reading now adays, Mrs Humphrey Ward's "Marcella'' and most people pronounce it the best of her remarkable trio of books. One in which she has caught the "spirit in the air." Every one is more or less interested in social subjects, forced to be from the trend of events, every one is therefore pre pared to be interested in "Marcella. "' The heroine's sympathies with the poor, her grief at their sorrows, and her enthusias tic experiments for helping them are charming. One feels angry with her how ever for throwing over her lover, because his maturer judgment prevented bit see ing evervthinsr with her eyes, and thereby making a good man miserable There was much sense in what her little I matter-of-fact friend Mary said to her one j day after she had been unfolding her ; scuemes to ner : dm is me goou oi n all, my dear, if you don't prevent the peo- j p'e from wasting more than half their money at the public house?" j "Alary" would have occasion to make i the tame remark over here to our populist j friends.

Editors Democrat: ( The more one becomes acquainted here he is convinced that this country migh have remained the sporting ground of Indians had it not been for the immigra tion from Western Oregon; old Linn has her slate of representation covering the fertile soil of the Palouse. Whitman county raised this year eight million bushels of the finest quality of wheat. Last year this county lost by injury from unceasing rain between eight and ten million bushels of whet. This year the wheat is saved, but the market for it amounts to nothing. The price, 22 cents with sacks is below cost of production where everything done, is by hired labor. The great loss of 1893, could be easily made up in 1894 if wheat was 40 cents per bushel . I'mler this dark cloud there is a very strong and commendable spirit of determination to fight the battle until living prices are restored. This de pression cannot last another year. Some farmers have stacked their wheat and will not thresh it until prices are better; some will not sell at present who have threshod, while there are some who have to sell to meet pressing demands. Many are fatten ing hogs, claiming that wheat thus used is equal to forty cents per bushels. This will become a leading industiy for Palouse has no superior as a hog raising country. In dustries may be varied, and already atten tion is turned that way. It is a famous apple country. Tons of grapes have been in uiarKCt mis year, out. some varieties are superior to the same raised in California. fhs Muscat here is much lartrer and mure uniform in flavor Uuut the California Mus cat and sells for 40 rent for a larger box. ln,n , u tkn,. ni U-i regon. though the Bavor is good.
