The challenge waa sent In several days ago and yesterday a reply was received from Frank . E. Ford, chairman of the M. A- A. C. commit tee.

A sharp col loquy occurred In the senate today between Senators Teller and Hopkins, growing out of the reading by Teller of a letter written by the late General H. H. Thomas of Chicago, attacking the civil service administration of the treasury department Mr. Hopkins took exception to quoting the letter and de clared that the Colorado senator would be willing to accept "authority from the slums," whereupon Mr. Telle de cllned to yield further, declaring Mr. Hopkins' reference to slums to be in sulting.

KILLED ON CUTING. Chehalis Man 8truck by Train and Dies Instantly. Chehalis, Wash., April 12. At 5 o'clock yesterday afternon A. W. Stln cel, the well-known merchant tailor of Chehalis, was struck by the Northern Pacific freight train No. 58, en route from Portland to Tacoma, and killed Instantly. Just how the accident hap pened is hard to determine, but It is thought that Stlncel and his wife, who were walking on the track, did not hear the train in time to get off a trestle over Dillenbaugh creek, where they were caught. Mrs. Stlncel was knocked from the trestle and fell a distance of about 10 feet She was badly hurt but may re cover. It is thought she is Internally Injured. Stlncel, who was killed in stantly, had lived at Chehalis 13 years and was respected by all. He was a member of several beneficiary and fra ternal societies. His body was brought to Chahalls and is at Sticklln's under taking parlors. No blame attaches to the trainmen, as the track is clear for half a mile each way and is thought the accident might easily have been avoided by the victims. People in Valley Fear Repetition of Former Terrible Flood. Sumpter, Or., April 12. The Sumpter valley and the lower Powder river country la In the throes of a raging flood. For the last 10 days the sun has been shining brightly, and the warm rays are fast melting the deep snow that covers the highlands. Powder river Is repeating Its action of seven years ago, only the damage promises to be great'.? than at that time. Sunday that stream, as well as the Burnt river, began to rise rapidly, and the volume of water now pouring down upon the lowlands Is the great est that has been known for years in that section. While no damage has yet been done here, a considerable portion of - the Sumpter Valley railway is under water between here and Baker City. Mon day morning's train did not reach here on time, and the announcement was made that It was doubtful if train con nectlons between here and that city could be kept up until the floods sub' sided. About 50 men are at work along the railway fighting the encroachment of the waters, but It is not thought they or any force of men could effect any good If the present warm weather keeps up. Should It be Impossible to run trains. a line of stages will be put on con nectlng Baker and this city, thus keep Ing up with the passenger and mall traffic. Sumpter valley is pretty much covered with water, but no damage is looked for outside of considerable In convenience to the tesldents of that locality. No bridges have yet been washed out In this -upper country, but the prediction is made that many will disappear before the subsidence of the flood comes. PERSONAL MENTION.
