THE GOVERNOR IS GETTING ANGRY
He Will -Send the Convicis Back to the
Mines A. Bishop Celebrates the
Fiftieth Tear of his Reign.
McMinnnville, Or., Nov. 30. J. H.
Stine, editor of the Whiteson Advance,
was shot last evening by H. C. Cook, a
section boss on the narrow gauge. Cook
then shot himself twice. Both men
were killed instantly.
Stine, 'Cook and a German section
hand had been to Amity on foot,' a dis
tance of three "miles from Whiteson
When about half way back on their re
turn, Stine walking about ten feet in ad
vance of the others, Cook, quickly and
without warning, drew a pistol and fired
at Stine, striking him in the back of the
neck breaking the spinal column. Then
turning the pistol on himself, he fired
one- shot into his breast, missing the
heart about two inches. He then placed
the pistol to his temple and fired a
second shot through his brain. The sec
tion hand, thinking his time was also
come started to ran at the first shot and
did not stop until he got to Whiteson
A squad of men returned and found both
men dead. ....
No cause is known for the deed except
it be sudden fit of mental aberration,
Cook has been acting singular for several
days.': The section hand with them said
that he had taken but two drinks of
whisky during the day and showed no
signs of intoxication. The men were
good friends and always on the best of
terms and were talking pleasantly at the
time of the shooting. They were both
about 48 years of age and veterans of the
civil war. -
Nothing is known of Cook's family re'
lations. He was brought here by the
corner last night and hundreds viewed
his remains today. .
Stine leaves a wife and one child. He
had been connected with papers at In
dependence, Grants Pass, . St.. Helens
and other points. He will be buried at
Independence. . .
The Right Kind of a Governor.
Nashnille, Nov. 30. "The convicts
shall be returned to the mines if it takes
every able bodied man in the state to do
it" said Governor Bnchanan last night.
The lessees have made a demand upon
the state for convicts, this demand was
answered promptly that when the con
victs were recaptured they would be re
turned if supplied with sufficient guard
and proper quarters will be built at
once and this will take about two weeks
The guard will hot be taken from the
existing militia companies of the state.
but men will be enlisted for the purpose,
About 300 of" the 672 released convicts
have been recaptured.
Fifty Years a Bishop.
St. Louis,' Nov. 30. Just fifty years
ago Peter Richard Kenerick" consecrated
bishop of the Roman '. Catholic Church
Today his golden jubilee was celebrated
with great pomp. Only once before has
the golden jubilee of a bishop been cele
brated, and that of John McHale arch
bishop of Tuam, Ireland, eleven years
ago. It is an event so rare that the
whole world is interested in it, and . in
this case, not simply because such cele
brat ions are so unfrequent, but because
the Archbishop Kenerick has filled these
fifty years with usefulness and good.

5 Affairs in China.,
Pekin, Nov. 30. The government is
fully' aware of the serious condition
which confronts it and . every possible
step is being taken to break the strength
of the rebels befort they get in striking
distance of the capitol. The latest ad
vices from the massacre of the Belgian
mission at Tokou state that three hun
dred Europeans and native Christians
were massacred. It is believed that
not a Single Christian in the -. district
escaped.. Consternation prevailed
among ' the protestant missionaries in
the district, through which it is expected
the rebels will have to pass. The local
officials in Tsusnaha declared they were
powerless to protect the, missionaries,
and if they desired to save their lives
they had better seek safety in flight.
The missionaries at Tsusnaha have,
therefore, abandoned their stations and
sought refuge in safer parts of the coun
try.". -: - ' ; - ,
Will Build the Road.
Portland? Nov.30.-r-'We .intend to
commence work on the railroad between
Goble and Astoria in January and push
it to a speedy conclusion," - said Walter
V. Smith, vice preeident of the company
today. Smith further expressed him
self as having little confidence that New
York parties represented by Dwyer,
would take hold of the road. He did
not intend to cast any . suspicion on
Dwyer's project but on the contrary was
anxious to have thtm build. The Gable
company is composed mostly of Astoria
peoble who take it upon themselves to
build the road when they conclude . that
the road would not be constructed until
they undertook it.

Valparaiso, Nov. 28. Advices state
that the American war vessel Yorktown
is an object of considerable curiosity,
and crowds from the vicinity of Val
paraiso are visiting the harbor to see
the new arrival. . The Baltimore men
are delighted to be relieved of the iso
lated condition,, and now feel, some of
them say, as if they were not afraid of
anything the Chilians might do. The
American uniform ashore is treated
with more respect than ever, and the
Chilian police are rather over officious
in seeing the American sailors are not
annoyed. The latter by special orders
from their omcers, are caretui to nave as
little contact as possible with the
Chilians. All appears to be in doubt as
to the future, and no formal verdict has
yet been rendered by the nidge ot the
court of crimes as to the killing of the
Baltimore's sailors. The Chilian war
vessels have been taking some firing
practice, and it is acknowledged on all
sides, although splendidly equipped,
they are utterly inemcient comparea
with American gunners.
CONDITION OF AFFAIRS IN CHINA.
The Troubles There riot alL Based Upon
the Anti-Foreign Feeling.
Lonon, Nov. 28. The Timet this morn
ing publishes a dispatch from a corres
pondent at Shanghai, which confirms the
report that the troubles in Chiha are not
all baaed on the anti-foreign feeling en
tertained by the natives. This is but a
phase of the situation. The underlying
reason for the discontent which prevades
many districts of China ia the fact that
the natives of the country believe the
time is ripe to overthrow the Manchun-
dynasty, which was overthrown in 1644.
The movement has in view the driving- -of
the present emperor from power, and; ,
placing a native Chinese ruler upon . the
throne. The Times correspondent says
the rebels have already captured Chay
sang in the province of Sea Jona and
Sbing King in .Mancbooria. They are
rapidly gaining accessions to their ranks,
and have quite a formidable army. They
are marching on the capital at Pekiru
The imperial forces are preparing to.
meet them, and it is believed a desperate- -battle
will soon be fought. The intelli
gence that the rebels are marching to an
attack of Pekin causes the greatest ex
citement in that city. " . '
WITH A STRONG HAND.
Piexotto Determined to Stop the Eero
Intion. Rio Janeiro, Nov. 28. President
Piexotto, through his minister of warr
has ordered the chief of the Brazilian, -army
force to return to Rio Grande do '
Sul. He has also issued a manifesto,,
demanding that the revolution in that
state be stopped at once. It is reported
that the insurgents in Rio Grande do
Sul are not inclined to' comply with
President Piexotto's demands. If the
revolt is continued Piexotto will use all
the power at his command to put it

turn to their posts. It is also said that

sition. ' Mobilization of the national

The Argentine Election.
Bcenos Ayres, Nov. 28. The conduct
of various governors of. states in the in- ,
terior of the republic in regard to the
elections Sunday last are said to have
been scandalous. Conflicts between the
troops and citizens are reported at differ
ent towns. The entire corps of firemen
were bribed so as to give aid to the pro
posed revolt against Mitre if he was
elected to succeed Pettingram. Police
officials are also implicated.
