McConnel, government Indian inspector, was in the city Sunday.

He has been over at the Siletz agency and Suds things in a state., far from, satisfactory At .the Grand Ronde agency, things have been running at very loose ends, accord ing to what the inspector saw and learned; and his report to the secretary of the in terior will probably make interesting reading to the people of this section when ready to be giveu to the public. Mr. McConnell's idea is that the whale Indian system needs a thorough revision and overhauling. His recommendations will be watched with interest. McMinu yille Transcript. . t . ... "J. W. Ingle Indicted. Yesterday moruing the grand jury re turned an indictment against J.. W. Ingle, of Philomath, charging him with forgery. The case will come up for trial at the April term of court. The indict ment is an outgrowth of -the action brought by Ingle against his sons-in-law, Nichols and Holm, sueing them for over $7,000 and closing their store under at tachment, precipitating an assignment. The firm, in buying out Ingle's stock of roods, gave him eight notes of $1,000 each, payable in different years", and one smaller note. Ingle "recently sued to collect tho whole amount, al though only one note Was supposed to be due if all conditions were complied with. But according to the complaint filed in each note but the one first due were the words, "interest payable annu ally, and if not so paid, then the whole note, principle and interest.s'iall become due and collectable." Nichols and Holm claim that the part , "and if not ..paid, etc," was put in after their signing the note,, and without their, knowledge or consent. . They say that only $1,000, ai.d the interest on the whole "amount iis really Idue. . , y The store of Nichols & Helm is now ill the charge of assignee, A. W.

This paper and other papers have been criticised for publishing certain happen ings that might be deemed to "reflect en the town." If anything unusual hap pens that is not creditable in all things to one or more of the participants, and the facts are printed in a paper, there are those who will train their features into a caricature of righteous indignation and make it their business to go about the streets damning the paper as being dan gerously sensational and unfairly partial. But ' ithey read the paper aud read first the articles they criticise." - ':; - . There was an occurrence on the street Wednesday morning that was really a sensation. This paper, being a news paper, ' will of course publish the facts, and in order that those who live in more saclified atuios. heie may not learu, un aware, of the exciting affair, this intro duction is made. It is hof ed that this Unusual effort to please everybody will be properly appreciated. - ; ! The incident was a' fistic difficulty I be tween Chief of Police Bird .Wells, Lee WehsVhis'swo', and jas. L. Skipton, who resigned his position as nightwatchman' Monday, night. It. occurred en Main street in front. of :Kline!s rstoie Wednts day morning. According to all witnesses Skigton and John Buchanan were talk ing over some business matters, when the chief stepped up and said, "John,-if you knew as much about that man as I do. you wouldn't, be seen talking to him." Hot words" 'followed between the twe men, and Mr. Buchanan tried to pacify them, hut ..without success. Wells and Skipton soon cam to blows, and later, Lee Wells joined issues with his father, and Skipton engaged alternately with each. Accounts' vary xlightly as to the first blow, etc., but the chief, doubtless, in 'a ring contest, wonld have been giveu the decision as to the retult. The fight caused considerable commo tion and is yet the subject of street con versation. Nigbtofficer Beach arrested Bird and Lee Wells, and they were fined $10 each. Machines Knocked Out The aickle-in-the-slot gambling ma chines can be played no more in Corval lis. Chief of Police Wells ordered them all withdrawn .last Monday, and the own ers quietly, and indeed rather gladly, sub mitted. The machines are fairly profita ble, but. the playing is not a legitimate business transaction and becomes .more or less of a nuisance. As lone af one house had theui, others felt compelled to do likewise; but it is safe to ?ay that all who owned them are glad that the ma chines are to be henceforth .prohibited.. The patrons of the machines certainly are benefited. Those combinations of iron and paper bave a fascination all their own', and often tempt their victims into losing more than can really be spared. President Gatch told the College beys the other day that it was beneath the dig nity of v college student, possessing life and intellect, to match himself against a mere machine, and espocially when the machine was . bound to be victorious. And in the long run the machines always, do win. They are built for that purpose; The action of the chief iscomnieoable and contrary to the usual result in such cases, seems to suit somebody. Later. The above seems to have been written under a misapprehension. The proprietors of the machines are not so fond of the order and say that the ma chines are not more, harmful than dice throwing for cigars. The legal aspect of the matter will soon be determined, the firms of Small & Son and Hodes & Hall having cases in the city court next Mon day, being charged with operating a gambling device:'; v Tonsorial Rhymes.

Scott plead guilty to the charge ol larceny of a horse and buggy, and Thurs day morning stood up in the court room to receive his sentence. Thin and pale trembling in limb,.haunted by the fear ef threatened insanity, a long term of dishonorable confinement before -.him; with an unhappy past and an unhappy future, he was a pitiable object. It seem-' ed to the spectators that in such cases, life is less merciful than death. When asked if he had anything to say before sentence was passed upon him, Scott replied: ''Itook th e rig, but did not intend to steal it I was going to visit a friend with another party and both of us were intoxicated. The other party was to bring back' the rig, but I wcht-fS sleep and when I awoke I was in the buggy alone. I did not want to get into anv more trouble, bat I hardly knew what I was doine." -' His'""attdrney,Rd:. L. Bryan, then briefly addressed the court, asking the conrt to temper. justice, with mercy. Judge Fullerton, in passing sentence, said tnal his personal and judicial knowl edge of the defendant's career precluded him from giving a light sentence.

Eugene defeated the Chemawa Indians last Saturday, the score being 10 to 6. The O. A. O. boys had. previously won from the redmeu . by a score of 34 t"? o, but it is not safe -to figur. from those eames that the farmers will have an easy time with the dudes on the 20th. - The Cheniawa's learned many points in .the Corvallis game and undoubtedly played better ball at Eugene. And then it can not be known, whether Or nnt Eugene ! played its best game throughout The dudes, perhaps, are not exposing laeir hand.. .. The farmers can count upon having to play football if they win one week front tomorrow. The dudes are drilling hard; and expect to show what team work can do. The O. A. C. team undoubtedly has the best individual players, but star playi ing cannot win against proper team work. Friends of the home team are pUased to learn that Gallagher is practicing with the boys. Gault is able to play again with co 1 fort aud the other members of the team, with the exception of Holgate, are on the field daily. Holgate will not be able to practice this weuk and will probably go as a sub. on the 20th. The football teams belonging to the intercollegiate ass-cialion pre variously named.

FOYDEn Akaalttteb Par ., m venc A NEW NIGHT-OFFICER. City- Council Holds an Interest l- - ins Session. ; Mayor Woodward presided over a full council Monday night the adjective applying-to the body itself, and not to the individual members. -Visitors, also, were plentiful. ' : The committee on fire and water, which bad been iiistiucte l to-inquire as to whether or not the electric light compa ny and the water company are .charging exorbitant rates, reported that the light company's charges are reasonable, but that the water company should make a general reduction ef 25 per cent on all rates, and if it refuses, the council should pass an ordinance, properly regulating the matter. ' Bills on general and street funds wer allowed. - Report ef chief of police read and filed, An item in the report, relative to the dis missal of two cases of violating the "bi cycle on sidewalks" ordinance aroused some debate, and the council finally vot ed that the police judge draft an ordi nance prohibiting cycle riding on any walk. ' Communication from Attorney Pipes relative to certain court fees in the Water case, read and matter went over. A strong resolution relative to Yaqui na bay improvement was adopted and copies ordered sent to each member ef the Oregon delegation. Petition for street lights at the new United Evangelical church and at the creamery, read and referred te the fire and water committee with power to act. Liquor bonds of J. Wuestefeldt, Thos. Whitehorn and B. Woldt read and ap proved. . The .resignation of Nightwatchman Jas. L. Skipton, in which he referred un pleasantly to the chief ef police, was read and accepted. There were two can didates for the position and the election resulted, Eph Beach, 6; W. J. Moore, 2; iblank,,i; : Uporf.request of Rev. Kelly, sidewalks were ordered laid near the United Evan 'gelical Church. The council cautioned the chief of po lice, against exceeding his authority in the naUer ef street and walk work, and .then adjourned.. . . , ; Flowing Wells. ' Monday night the resignation of Night watchnian Skipton was read to the city council.. In his letter, the retiring officer gave as the chief reason for his , action, the conduct of the head of the depart ment, whom the letter characterized as unfit for the position mentally , morally and otherwise." The chief was present and the chief replied. Unheeding the quiet remon strance of the mayor, the commander of the army of Corvallis stirred up the at mosphere, hurtling chunks of eloquence in vindication of bis "gentlemanhood." He transfixed Mr. Skipton with a few strokes and then unexpectedly attacked the Gazette, which has not resigned and which is not going to resign. He knocked the Gazette down, he speared it, he damned it, and then made faces at it. If this paper had any sense at all, it would retire from public gaze, wiped out, extinguished. The councilman sat in solemn silence, awed into speechlessness, while the visi tors swayed te and fro, responsive to the magnificent oratory that controlled their thoughts and feelings. It was a sublime scene. Aud when in the grand perora tion he asked in tones that frightened the goddess ef justice over the court house door, "Did any Councilman hear me complain of Skipton?" Geo. Smith and "Dad" Hall could stand the strain no losger. They waved their hands, shouted "No !" and saved the crowd. The Gazette hardly understands how it deserved to be so immortalized, nor rcan it comprehend the meaning of all the eloquent outpouring of last Monday night, but is surprised to learu that some people do not lika the paper.'

Sold by Gra SALT rat A Chicago Girl's View. Miss Cora Elizabeth Campbell, of Chicajjo, who recoutljr was in Corvallis on a visit to her ancle, Alex Campbell, has written a let ter de-cubing her western trip that appears in the Ogle County Republican, published ia Oregon, Illinois. The letter is too long to be reprinted, but Miss Campbell's impressions of Yaquina bay, are given below: "After resting several weeks we took a trip to the seashore, to the C6ast. And the journey there, over and through the Coast range, with its little rivers and tiny cas cades and its huge forests of ever green was long to be remembered. Because the way was sacred to us on account of the attachment to it ol cue whose memory ia prec ious, and because we were with such dear friends and lastly, be cause of the iiia.nilicrht - sixnery upon all sides the rutue trip. At l he end ol the railroad journey we took the bout lor the little yil lajr across I he bay. I was very i-a-;r for (he lirl glimpse ol the sea. you may b stiie, and iltitreju ' ed :i long journey ol 20 minute heloiv we turned I ho" arm ol the bay. When one has wailed lor years for anything, the last, twen ty ininuU's one waits is almost 1111 iiulurable. But at last out there a mile away beyond the. harbor hi r the I'acilic rolled and tumbled with silver crest under the bril liant sunshine. Standing quite atone ana sun in me uuw 01 me bout I had this quiet coutrmpla lion all to mvself. Giity and i.tujrliter and the brightest sid ot !ifc was what I leli the first mo ment I looked al the ocean. But 1 saw it in many moods during my stay. Sometimes m a towcrin rage, sometimes sullenly angry, sometimes tenderly solemn, but alwaps restl.i!?, always hungry for victim?, ever ready to engulf a pebble or a ship. Ot the delight of this bit of coast 1 could write long pages. But we will only look up northward along the shore to Yaquina head, where I he Cape Foul weather Light stands; across 1 he bay al the jellys which a be iK'ficient government begun to build aud never finished; south ward along the shore to the U. b. lil: aving station. Take a peep into the Devil's punch howl, a huge cave which the persistent wave hare hollowed out of the ba-allic rock. Look up at the bluffs back of the beach covered with acres of rhododendrons which make a garden worthy the envy of royalty. In the 1'rince l Wales's London house there are eight rhododendrons Jn boxes, in the Porte Cochere here at Ya quina bay we may gather . bushels ol the blossoms at our own sweet will. Then the agates on the beach to be had for the hunting. But all these are minor attractions. The two prime delights are the smell of the sea and the sound of the surf."
