Crabb Uncovers a Rich Ledse at Diamond Peak. READS LIKE A ROMANCE Sixty Foot Vein of Free Gold Bear ing Quartz. V. S. tiralib arrived in Kngene a few days ago and relates a story with enough romance connected with it to satisfy the most skepticle that a new eldor.do has really i een discovered, one which will no di.wn in liistory with that same thrilling interest lingering aliont it. that has characterized many of the great gold discoveries of the pas. The story is as follows : Mr. Crabb. who is from Prairie City, in the Kastern Oregon goil district, made the discovery in August. He came all the w ay from Prairie City afoot and alone across the Kastern Oregon plains for the purpose of prospecting in the Cascade mountains. He prospected some time among the canyons and gulches, and one day ran across the ont croppings which indicated the presence of gold. He commenced digiag a- d was overjoyed to find gold-bearing rocks in great quantities, which, from out side apiearances. promises to rival either the llohemia or Blue River dis tricts. About this time t'rahb's provisions had given out and he was compelled to come down to the valley to secure more. After having lieen without anything to eat for about three days, he arrived at the Lowell ferry, where he secured the job of operating the ferry boat for a In days. While there he became acquaint ed with Levi Law and Tom Hunsaker. to whom he confided the secret of his find. The three proceeded together to the new discovery and set to work iney nave oeneo up anu uncovereti a vein of quartz H fee: wide and Mr. Crabb, who is an old and experienced miner, says it is the richest thing he has seen in many years. He brought to Eugene with him a few samples of the rock from the vein which he will have assaved In some of the reek par ticles of gold can tie seen with the naked eve. The location of the find is alwut 70 miles east to southeast of Eugene and can be reached by going up the Mili tary wagon road. Naturally Crabb i reticent about stating the exact location of the find untii he and his partners have staked off all theclaims thev want. The newlv discovered district is near Diamond Peak and is on the mineral , fourth story. The building will be belt between Blue River and Bohemia.

From the Rural Districts. The droughty condition tiiat lias pre vailed throughout the state during the last three months was partially relieved during the latter part of last week by Hod showers, which fell in 'nearly all , districts. While the rains were general ly insufficient to place the soil in condi tion for plowing, they cleared the at mosphere of smoke, started grass on the ranges and pastures and revived all veg etation. They came too Ir owever. to be of much btMl f jd jxita toes.

The various reports regarding the sit uation at the front from the Far Kast received unlay give no indication of any new movements. The most interesting information from St. Petersburg is the statement that MajoMieneral OriofT. upon whom was place! the blame for the step necessitating the abandonment of Liao Yang, will lie detached from the Manchurian army and given another command in Knropean Russia, or may be tetired.

The Greenback mine in this dfsfrict has lieen netting its owner, Wm'. 'Bre voort of New York, an average of 130,- 000 a month for several years, with lit crally acres of ore still in sight.

Alter sinning a twenty-foot sump an east drift will be started to determine whether the east ern end of the vein is cut off by a wall of serpentine, or not a condition which is known to extend as deep as the ninth level, but which there is every reason to believe has ceased to exist. Notwithstanding the rich output from such quartz mines as the Greenback, the Benton, the Gold Bug, and many others that have been worked profitably in true fissure veins for years, there are still at large a few cheap "ox-spurts" who in sist that "Southern Oregon mines are merely pooketi."

Oct. 2. Oregon .- sv- one gun was tired last night at the Armory, when Charles V. Fairbanks, the next Vice President of the I'nited Btatrt. oke to 4500 of the cHomm of Portlam. and by his masterly ar raijrnment of the fallacies of the I democratic platform and creed point ed out to an tne patn to eontinuei prosperity, peace and happiness. It was a great m-vting and a great audience, more people hv half crowi ng the hall than have before greeted Senator Fairbanks at anv plaice on his Western tour. It was a patriotic meeting and the hundreds of Hags that draped the hall floated and fluttered in the wave of patriotism that sho ik the building and punctuated the pauses in the speeches made by both Senator Fair banks and Senator D illiver. Long before the seakers had left their hotel for the meeting place, the Arniorv was crowded hv those who had come to hear the distinguished visitors present the claims of the Re- publican party for indorsement in November. By 8 o'clock seats were at a premium and hundreds lined the spaces around the walls. A few places had been reserved in front of the speaker's stand and. when these Representatives of the state in Con were thrown open to the public Krtss an,i eulogized Senator Mitchell, shortly before the entrance of the whm he described as one of the orators, there was a wild scramble for them. Men. women and boys strove to gain the vantage points from which they could hear the words to be spoken. At S o'clock. Frank l". Baker chair- man of the Republican State Central Committee, led the jiarty to the plat- form. He was accompanied by Sena- tor John H. Mitchell, the president of the evening: Senator Charles W. Ful- ton, Congressman Binger Hermann and J. N. Williamson. Mayor Ceorge H. Williams, who acted as the imme- diate escort of .Senator rairbanks and Senator iolliver. WAVE OF I'nKKKIW; MOTH OCT. As the party entered the hall the band was playing "America," but when the crowd caught sight of the j Of the tariff as the policy of the Ne man who is the choice of the Repub- publican party from the first. He licans of the Nation for the second spoke of the administration of Presi- highest office in its gift, cheer after cheer rent the air and shook the roof above until the strains of the band, lost in the wave of greeting, died away and were forgotten. The ova tion continued fur several minutes, men standing on their chairs and waving their canes and hats in their enthusiasm. It was a greeting that showed the spirit of the people and the presence of one of their standard bearers. When quiet was for a moment re stored, Mr. Raker, as the chairman of the State Central Committee, intro duced Senator Mitchell to preside over the meeting. His remarks were brief but decidedly pointed and ap propriate. When' Senator Fairbanks arose in answer to the introduction, pandemo nium was let loose in the hall.

Then he began his speech. Slowly and deliberately he sent his words out across the vast audience until they could be easily heard in the farthest corner, and the people who had a minute liefore been so tumultu ous hushed until the movement of a in. the shifting of a foot was aud- ible. Mr. Fairbanks spoke of the magni ficent reception accorded him and made known his gratitude, but he Mid that in it he saw nothing person- aif but simply the fact that the people were honoring him because he stood at this time as a representative of the glorious principles of Republican ism. OR.iN SIHKE FOR NATION. He paid a tribute to Oregon and to the stand taken bv the state. Ore- Klin was on the picket line and. when the state spoke for Republicanism in M uncertain tone, the people of the natjn breathed easier and knew that t was an index of the voice of the ;ati,n. The speaker then turned to the ,rr,.atest leaders of the Senate. To Senator Fulton he paid high compli- ment mrfmg that he had a bright ;ind promising future. Congressman Hermann and Williamson were com- ,,ijmented for their devoted and scon- St.i,ntious work for thepeopleof their state and for the interests of their Nation. j The i,ewis anj Qkrk Exposition was touched upon and the speaker , that Oregon paid high honor to ; herself bv the commemoration of so j ,,reat an achievement and one that ; u.M i,een of so irreat imnortance in 1 - - o the increasing greatness of the Na tion. The Senator then delved into the National issues of the day and spoke dent McKinley and paid a most elo quent and fervid tribute to that mar tyred hero of the American people. The questions arising from the war with Spain and the Philippine rebel lion were discussed and the attitude of the party made clear on those sub jects. The Democratic party, as it re lated to the history of the country, to its prosperity and development, was treated and the money question was discussed. Mr. Fairbanks paid tribute to The Oregonian and its edi tor for the help and succor they had given the cause of sound money in times of need. The speech was a masterly one, strong and clear in tone, and won the people, who punctuated it with apv plause time and time again. All through the hour occupied in its de livery there was not a moment when the interest flagged or the audience became restless. BIG CHIEF JOSEPH. His Late Death Recalls Memories of His Remarkable Career. TELLS HIS OWN STORY. Gen. Miles Declared Him Greatest Indian that Ever Lived. Chief Joseph, the famous leader of the Ha I'erces, who gave the I'nited states army one of the hardest campaigns it has ever conducted in the west, and who Oen. Miles declared was the greatest In dian that ever lived, has passed peace fully to the happy hunting giounds. A year ago an Oregon friend saw Chief I'isepb in bis tepee near Spjkane, and to him the old warrior told the story for the first time to a white man, it is said of his hard fight for w hat he con sidered his rights. A portion of his nar rative, just as he told it, is reproduced here : When Gov. LI. Stevens called the great Walla Walla council of 18K, the result of which was that all of the In dians in that section agreed to give up most of their landj and go on reserva tions, ail the tribes W'-re opposed to the treaty except the Nez Perces. Old Ka-mi-a-kin the lead t of the war of ls, got the Yakimas, the Cayuses all the tribes, in fact, but the Nex Perces to agree to massacre the governor's party. Joseph's father and the other chiefs of the Km I'erces pitched their tepees near -We-is' and thus saved the white from lieing killed. For this act of friendship the governor gave the Nez Perces a larger share of land than to the illier tribes. We had 2500 people at Walla Walla poawow,'" said Chief Joseph. "Yakima Cayuse, Cmatilla, Wallula, tribe have .' 00. Net Perces people keep Stevens from kill. Stevens people give Nez I Perces people Upwai, (.rand Konde. Wallowa.

'' Chief Joseph described the prelimi naries of the war how the whites killed in Indian and lie held his men in check until they taunted him with being a coward and an old woman. Then hr j aid he would tight. "First fight White Bird creek ", went j on Joseph. "Month JaM my tillicums ' kill some white men close Mount Idaho. I Lieut.

The Portland Telegram says of this very popular company : Its very title suggests clear, healthy, country air, does "Sweet Clover," which was presented to a pleased audience at the Marquam Grand Friday night. "Sweet Clover" is a pastoral drama, but does not drag iu a black alpaca heroine, a city villain, a pump, a church choir or a mortgage. True, the mother of the heroine, did run away from her home and husband with the traditional gentle man from the city, and, it is feared, at times, that the girl will follow in the footsteps of her wayward maternal pa rent, but she does not. The comedy Is supplied by Clara Taps field and Robert Robson, as an old maid and a bashful bachelor, who have been sparking for 30 years, and l eo B. Mor daunt and J. M. Moss, as youthful lov ers. Otis B. Thayer, as father of the hero ine, gives a fine tharacter portrayal. He is homespun and life-like, and, after the first act, appears to notable advan tage. W hen on the stage Mr. inayer is never motionleea, but fills his part with endless trifles of "business" which go far to make his creation close to nature. His Jerome Holoombe is one of the few stage farmers that can stand the test. There is an abscence of "be-gosh-ing" and "I-Bwan-ing" about Thayer's im- personation w hich is refreshing, and his action would make the role attention compelling anywhere. iertrude Kon lhill, co-star with Mr. Thayer, is a small woman with an ex ceptionally pretty and likeable face She plays her part well John Maurice Sul livan, formerly the Horatio Drake in (laker's "Christian" company, did his part of the husband full justice, and the role could scarcely have been improved upon.

A telegram from Tien Tsin says a junk which arrived from Port ArUiur reports that the garrison is in terrible straits, and that they are suf fering from lack of the commonest neces sities of life. There is intense suffering among ad classes and particularly so at the hjspitais. where the wounded are in a wretched condition. The most 8e- rious factor is the lessening of the water supply. The opinion is growing i the town people that the time has come when a surrender could be made with- ' out a loss of honor. This was suggested to Gen. Stoessel, who became frantic, raved like a maniac and declared he would continue fighting as long as a grain ot powjier remained. . .
