A COWARDLY INSULT TO
IRISH RACK.
THE
When our evening contemptible quotes
a paragraph from the East Oreqonian
which was part and parcel of an attack
on the Irish race In general and the edi
tor of the CnBOKiCLE in particular, the
Anglomaniacal Cornishman shows the
the spirit that is in him. The man who
will characterize the Irish people as a de
graded race, sunk in ignorance and bar
barism and the man who quotes part of
it is a lying, dirty dog, but
in the . latter case, is the same
man who could propose and drink,
and thereby insult American citizenship,
the toast "England, She rules the
world" and then prate ad nauseam about
the glory of his Anglo Saxon origin and
all the while it is a matter of grave
doubt in the minds of many if he can
boast of the honor of American citizen
ship. ,
HANGING. HIMSELF WITH HIS
OWN ROPE.
A short time ago the East Oregonian
commented, in its usual reckless and in
Butting manner, on a paragraph which it
had credited to the Chronicle-, hut of
which not a word ever appeared in this
journal. In fact the paragraph was
written by Mr. Morgan of the Sun and
as it wad first wrongfully credited by the
Portland Telegram, Mr. Morgan himself
called attention editorially to the error.
Last night the Times-Mountaineer dished
up to its readers the lying comment of
the Pendleton paper, when Mr. Michell
must hare. known, well that , the para
graph never appeared in this journal.
The statement is made . and copied, -of
course from the stock lies of the Times
Mountaineer, that this journal was
started to kill off the Times-Mountaineer.
Every body "here knows, of course, how
utterly false the charge is. There is no
need for any outside effort to kill the
paper. Its brainless and insane editor
is killing it off as fast as he can by filling
it with matter not fit to appear in any
sheet claiming to be respectable. Instead
of devoting its col u ins to giving the news,
it is filled, half the time, with in
sane raviusrs about the Chronicle.
as if any one cared to read the twaddle,
ami pulling the ChkonIclk down would
hull. I the 7'inies-MowUaiiicer up. The re
sult i." a might lie expected. Before
the (.'iiitoMCl.K was seven months old it
cauiu within 14 names of having as
m a ii v subfi-i i!TS iti the county as its
ttonlempornry that has seen im existence
of over thirty years and as hundreds of
new names have been added since, we
claim that our weekly circulation is the
largest of any paper in the county and
our uanv circulation is not lesa man
three times greater than that of our con
temporary. This result has been reached
by minding our own busings, and only
noticing the Times-Mountaineer when
necessity compels us to do so a course
we intend to continue to pursue.
Another Victim of the Fire.
Yesterday it was commonly noted that
Mike Dimond was missing and it was
feared he had sucenmed to the' flames.
Todav the worst fears of our citizens
were realized when all that was left of
him a few charred bones and a portion
of the viscera were found at the south
west corner of E. P. FitzGerald's store,
corner of Federal and Second streets.
The coroner was duly notified, the re
mains were gathered together and a jury
summoned which met at two o'clock.
There was little to tell beyond the fact
that Dimond was seen by L. S. Davis on
the roof of the building before it fell in.
The remains .were easily identified by
the human teeth, spectacle frame, pocket
knife, known to belong to the deceased,
the frame of a two foot rule which he
alwavs carried, portions of two trusses
which, it was known, he always wore,
and portions of charred clothes. A
verdict was rendered in accordance with
the facts.

ABUT MANEUVERS.
The Alsatians, Do Not Like the German
t-.-!:. x if A Soldiers. .
London, Sept.'4. The German maneu
vers in Alsace-Lorraine are not on the
same large scale as those which the Ger
man kaiser is witnessing in Austria, but
they are exciting a good deal more inter
est across the frontier in France, where
the French are also going through the
evolutions ot mimic war. The German
military display does not attract the
same admiration and attention as the
French among the surrounding people.
The Alsatians ignore the parade just as
sullenly as they did twenty years ago,
when the Germans took possession. A
Paris correspondent who has visited Al
sace says there is no genuine ' change in
the attachment of the people to France,
and that the Germans are looked upon
as a foreign garrison. Beth Germans
and French are using smokeless powder,
and the old powder seems to have been
finally discarded, or- at least relegated to
use in fighting the savages of Africa,
where the noise is a potent factor in suc
cessful combat. The Germans have
stood the marching well, and it is, per
haps, of some interest, in view of the
troubled condition of European auairs,
that long marching has so far been the
the chief feature of the maneuvers.
BLAINE'S HEALTH.
The Secretary is Able to Ride Oat
Every Day.
Bab Habbob, Me., Sept. 4. rMr.
Blaine has been out every day this week.
Yesterday he drove out twice, He
drove into the village, left his carriage
and went into several of the shops and
dropped into Dr. Taylor's. . He walks
out with the doctor every day. Mr.
Dent attends to much of Secretary
Blaine's business outside as well as in.
When there is anybody to be seen that
the secretary don't want to tilk with, he
sends his private . secretary to transact
the bnsiness. Mr. Blaine's friends here
laugh at the latest current report that
President Harrison has ordered a mes
senger to come here and get Secretary
Blaine's yes or no in resrard to beinz a
candidate. They doubt Mr. Harrison's
great readiness to resign bis own pros
pects in Mr. Blaine's favor, and they
doubt even more Mr. Blaine's giving
any definite answer as to his future in
tentions. Everybody believes Mr.
Blaine quite eniovs the uncertainty re
garding his intentions that pervades the
public mind just now.
SIXTEEN MEN KILLED.
Blown Up by Dynamite and no Trace of
Them to be Found.
White Pigeon, Mich.; Sept. 4. The
dynamic factory of F. A. Reynolds &
Co., near this place, exploded last even
ing. Sixteen workmen, mostly Swedes
and Norwegians, were completely anni
hilated and not a trace of them can be
found. It is estimated twenty tons of
dynamite exploded. The concussion
here was terrbile, buildings being badly
damaged and people frightened.
The Story Was Utterly False.
London, Sept. 4. What turns out to
have been a cruel and ntterly unwar
ranted sensational story was circulated
by a news agency yesterdaA. The news
referred to in a dispatch dated Paris,
and was to the effect that a train loaded
with troops bound for the French army
maneuvers had run off the rails and over
an dmbankmant at Culment de Chal-
andry. and that 200 persons were killed.
This morning the report turns out to be
completely false.

The Eiffel the Cause.
Pabis: In the recent storm' terrible
damage to markets, gardens and vine
yards in envirions of this city was
caused. At Stains a farmer and laborer
were killed by , a thunder bolt. At
Clamart a peasant and his wife was
killed. Scientists assert the Eiffel Tower
caused electrical disturbances and the
climate here has been much worse since
the tower was built.

for the purpose of increasing the city's

500,000 gallons per day, or nearly double

the additional supply has been less than
$1,000, and the results are mort gratify

Miss Mollie E. Church,7, who has been
at the head of the German" department
of the colored high school of Washing
ton. D. C, for several years, has been
offered the position of - registrar of
Oberlin College. Miss Church graduated
from Oberlin in 1S84 with distinguished
honors, . being specially mentioned . for
her excellent; record in Greek. She
traveled and studied abroad for three
years, spending much of her time .in
Paris, Berlin . and Florence. If she
accepts the offer from Oberlin, she will
be the first colored graduate, it is said,
of the older universities to become " a
member of the faculty of her college.
The Bridegroom Was Flustered.
On Wednesday evening a young "man
with a pretty woman on his arm, entered
the Hotel Boyer.
' At the- door they parted, she remain
ing in the vestibule, ; where her rustic
beauty caused a sensation, while he went
up to the desk and registered. He was
evidently nervous, for he nearly put the
wrong end . of the pen in the ink, and
finally wrote: Mr. and Mrs. Blank and
wife, and forgot to set . down .the place
he came from. The clerk, howeverrwas
used to such vagaries, and assigned the
newly married couple to a room.
The bridegroom taking the key, still
in a state of fiusterment, forgot all about
the bride he had left upon the threshold
and hurried off up stairs. When he
reached the room of course he remem
bered his life partner, and returned
headlong to the office to find her. But
in the meanwhile the clerk had observed
Mrs. Blank's plight and sent a bellboy
to take her to her room. So when the
bridegroom landed in the lobby he found
no trace of his better half, and his con
sternation was indescribable.
By this time a good many people about
the lobby had got wind of the singular
comedy that was being played, and bets
were being, offered as to whether the
bridegroom would throw himself into
the Allegheny or call for the police.
Before any - such tragic ending, to the
drama could take place, however, the
clerk informed the husband where his
wife was, and a reunion of a most affect
ing nature was soon brought about in
the corridor above. Pittsburg Dispatch.
Precocious Infanta.
Professor Henry L. Chapman's speech
at the Bowdoin commencement dinner
was a model for after dinner orators. In
telling of the deeds of the class of '66
he spoke of the remarkable precocity of
one member, George William Kelley, of
Portland, of whom the following is re
corded in Cleveland and Packard's His
tory of Bowdoin college: "George Wil
liam Kelley was born in Portland, No
vember, 1844. He at once entered on a
theological course of study in Bangor
seminary etc. The only case of pre
cocity approaching this, he said, was in
the class of - '53, one member of which
was Ephraim C. Cummings, of whom
the same history records: "Ephraim
Chamberlain Cummings was bora in
Albany, 1825. His first year was spent
in teaching in the academy at Bucks
port, etc. Of the two cases Professor
Chapman held that the class of '66 led,
as it was evidently a more precocious
thing to study theology in Bangor than
to teach in Backsport. Lewis ton .Jour

Voting Talleyrand's Engagement.
The engagement of the youthful Comte
de Talleyrand Perigord to Mile, de Ro
han Chabot, daughter of the Prince and
Princess de Leon, has raised the ques
tion in aristocratic Paris as to the most
fitting age at which young men and
maidens should enter the holy state of
matrimony. The French aristocracy, it
appears, is divided on the matter. -
The Due de Broglie was twenty-four
when he married, the Due de Fezensao
only twenty-two, but Prince Alphonse
was thirty-seven and Prince Ludovio
forty-seven when they quitted the ranks
of the bachelors. On the whole, how
ever, it seems that the average age at
which the inhabitants of the Faubourg
Saint Germain marry is tffcjnty-six;
that of the ladies of the same quarter is
not given, probably on the principle that
"a woman on her wedding is exactly the
age she looks," Pall Mall Gazette. ...
Sheep Frozen In the Month of Jane.
A .kowhegan (Me.) Reporter corre
sponcent, in speaking of the year 1816,
says it was so cold on the night of June
6 that sheep that had just been sheared
suffered severely. -We took fifteen or
twenty of the worst cases, be says,
"laid them down in rows and covered
their bodies with straw. They were so
chilled that they lay so still that some
of them never stirred again. ' I think we
found seven dead in the morning.
"The neighbors lost so many that they
loaded them into an oxcart and drove
down the ferry road that ran through
our field to the river and dumped them
in. About 8 or 9 o'clock that morning a
few flakes of snow were seen in the air.
A number of little birds of a gosling
green color were picked up dead, chilled
to death." -
Another Smoke Consumer.
Mr. Edson J. Hadlock, of Big Springs,
Tex., has just patented an invention for
arresting all sparks on locomotives and
consuming all smoke that well informed
railroad men say must undoubtedly soon
come into general use. It entirely does
away with the ordinary smokestack of
the locomotive. The smoke and sparks,
after arising in a pipe a few. feet above
the boiler, curve downward through
double pipes and pass back into the fur
nace, where everything is reconsumed.
There can be no danger of fire from a
locomotive thus arranged, and it is
claimed that this reconsumption makes
a great saving of fuel. ' It also largely
improves the draft on the furnace. r

' His Nose Cat Off by a Barber.
Letter Carrier Ov W., Yost went into a
Western Addition barber shop to get
shaved. His face was lathered and the
barber was strapping the razor on a strap
affixed to the chair in which Mr. Yost
reclined. Suddenly, by some unaccount
able slip of the barber's arm, the razor
flashed by Yost's face and severed his
nose completely. The poor young man
will be disfigured for life, and when he
saw his nose lying on the floor he first
wept and then fainted from loss of
blood. Of course the barber apologized.
