During the coming Bummer, Bishop Paddock will "perform the ceremony of uniting in marriage Miss Elizabeth P. Ferry, the eldest daughter of Gov. Elisha P. Ferry, and Hon. John Leary, of Seattle: -A tele gram first, announced the engagement, which Mr. Leary, who is in the city, readily confirmed when seen this after noon. "The arrangements for the wed ding are not yet made," said Mr. Leary in answer to a question." "However, it will take place sometime during the summer, probably in Trinity Episcopal church; Seattle, but possibly in Tacoma, if the bishop is unable to leave this city." The engagement is very recent, having been made but a few days ago. they have known each other ever nince Gov. Ferry removed to .Washington, twenty yearja ago, and Miss Ferry was a frequent visitor at Mr. Leary 's 'home during the life of his first wife, who died two years ago. She finished her educa tion on the coast, and has traveled ex tensively in this country, .tor many years her time has been largely -devoted to church service and . works of charity in both Seattle and Olympia. Hon. John Leary is 56 years, old, a reputed millionaire, and is connected with many of Seattle's leading business enterprises He came to Washington wnen a young lawyer, and by enterprise and thrift has gradually risen to the top round of the ladder of success in professional " and business life." In 1884 Mr. Leary was elected mayor of Seattle,, and served'one year. Last night he was again nomina ted by the republicans for mayor of that city, and his friends claim that his nom ination means his election at the March municipal election by a majority of at least 1000: " Society Life at the Capital.., Washington, Feb. 21T Mrs. Harrison gave a public reception this afternoon which attracted more people- to the White house than ever assembled there before on a similar occasion. ; Sixty-one hundred people entered the mansion and when the reception closed, hundreds awaited admission. Mrs. Henry Green of Portland, who has been the guest of Mrs. Senator Dolph for several weeks. has had an unusual amount of social at tention paid her, a number of luncheons and dinners having recently been given in her honor. Kecently Mrs. Dolph and Mrs. Green attended a luncheon given. by Mrs. Senator, fctanford, which was superb in all . Us appointments The night before the)' dined with Secretary Tracy and Mrs. Wilmerding, who are connections of Mrs. Green. Ex-Senator and Mrs. Kelly, of Oregon, gave a din ner last week in Mrs. Green's honor. Mrs. Richard Nixon, Senator Dolph's married daughter, assisted Mrs. Harri son.to receive at the White house recep- : tion yesterday, and looked charming in vellow brocade, with violets and amethyst ornaments; - o Huh on the Back of Salem. Salem, Feb. 22. Of the $10,000 capi tal stock necessary for the incorporation of a baseball association to back Salem in the Pacific Northwest league, $7000 has already been subscribed. The soliciting committee will make thorough and final canvass today, and to night the stockholders will meet to perfect an or ganization, prepare articles of incorpor ation and elect officers -and a manager. The citizens are taking hold of .the mat ter actively and there is no doubt that Salem now will heve a. league team. . . Verjv. Narrow Kucape. i Boston, Feb. 20.- Members of sixteen families, occupying a big block "on East Canton street had a narrow escape "from asphyxiation last - night. " Early this morning it was noticed that illu minating gas was eacaping.from the building. The occupants were aroused and it was found nearly 100 persons, more-or less, were under the influence of the noxious vapors.' The physicians had a difficult' work: to resuscitate several of the victims. As it is, a number are very ill. But for the timely discovery of the trouble, no doubt many deaths wouldbave resulted! ':' jjmanlliig Ckluit., , '' El Paso, Feb. -fcl.Late last, night Customs-.,; Inspector . Duval captured Thomas Machuca, a Mexican who . was attempting to smuggle a Chinaman from Ciudad Juarez to this side of the river. Both were arrested and . held to appear before United States Commissioner Gibbs today. Machuca acknowledged at the trial that - he had been paid to dress the Chinaman in Mexican fashion and conduct him past the guards at the river. He was bound over ' in the sum of $500, and the Celestial ordered to re turn to China. This border is so poorly guarded that Chinamen in . number are eported crossing into the United States at different points without trouble. The Rio Grande is scarcely -knee-deep nfost of the year, and affords no protec tion, and there are not a dozen guards between Nogales, Ariz., and Presidio del Norte, Tex., a distance of about 600 miles.

Stealing Electricity Vnlon Pacific Rev olution Threatened Bad State of Afi'alrM. " ' Worse than Expected. Chicago, Feb. 21. The Times says there may be another revolution in the Union Pacific at the nextjregular annual meeting. It is generally understood that the affairs of the road. are in much worse condition than Gould supposed they were, when he led the special attack on the adnjiriistration of Charles Frances Adams.- Gould's investment is princi pally in . oonds., and there-are many stockholders who think this connection with the road is a detriment instead of a benefit. These stockholders are endeav oring to work upa movement which will result in a change. A committee, repre senting the foreign interest in the road. is now endeavoring to effect an arrange ment by which tne Union 1'acinc con solidated trust notes will be taken and the company relieved of Mr. Gould's influence. . Wolf Hunt in Kanm. Kansas City, Feb. 21. At 9 o'clock yesterday morning an .enormous wolf hunt started over Crawford and Bourbon counties in Kansas. As a result over 300 wolves lie dead tonight. Both counties and others adjoining were scoured bv over 5000 men, women and children armed in all conceivable ways, Two thousand jack rabbits were also captured in the general round-tip. Ow ing to an error in signalling there was one break in the line, which reduced the number of .captures but another hunt will take place next Saturday to finally wind up the wolves and foxes of southeastern Kansas." " There was but one accident. Thomas Perkins being bitten by a couple of wolves. He will not recover as he was fearfully torn. Balinaceda Members Arrested. New Yokk, Feb. 21. A Valparaiso special says that scarcely a night passes in Santiago without a street fight be tween the dictatorials, as the Balmace- dists are called, and the adherents of the victorious party. Army officers are continually subjected to ifisult in the most public ' thoroughfares. Matters have reached such a stage that the San tiago judge of crimes yesterday ordered the "arrest ot six .members of Balmace da's congress; It is rumored that the government is about ' to adopt' .active measures to. repress in the ..future these exhibitions of discontent for which, it is saiii, no good reason exists. , ' ... - Charge of Stealing Electricity. St. Louis,' Feb. fl. In a1 criminal case here brought by the Munical Electric Light and Power company, electricity was alleged to have been stolen by bridg ing the wires entering a store before the wires entered the meter. The point was raised that electricity cannot be stolen, inasmuch as to steal, there must be ah absorption, -which is impossible in the case of electricity, as it is' not anywise under control, and therefore not the goods,, property or effects of anyone. Judge Claiborne abruptly adjourned the case until he could thoroughly investi gate the matter, . - '.. Doable Tax Question. Boise City, Feb. 20. A case of pecul iar interest to stockmen ot Oregon and Washington is that of E. P. Janer vs. Owyhee county, now being heard here. Janer paid taxes on sheep in Malhuer coontv. Or., and soon after drove the animals across the line into Idahe, where he waa again compelled to pay taxes un der section 1426 of the laws of the Idaho legislature of 1890-91. Juner's attorney holds that the section is void and that Juner having paid taxes on the sheep in Oregon cannot be reassessed in Idaho. ' Temporarily Suspended. - St. Petersburg, Feb. 21. The im perial nrohibition of the exportation of grain is about to be suspended in favor of the owners of the 10,000,000 poods of oats now lying at the Baltic ports await ing shipment. Rochestek, Feb. 21. The shooting of an express messenger on a JNew York Central train, the rifling of a safe, the flight of the robber on the engine of another train from which he had driven - the crew at the point of a revolver, a running fight from the engine for miles, followed by another, engine filled with. railway men, and the final capture of the desperado by a sheriff's posse in a swamp, after a wild pursuit across the countrv, are some of the sensational features of. the most desperate attempt at train robbery in the history of the Central railway, and which cast in shade, as au exhibition of coolness and nerve the famous exploits of the Jesse James band or the other outlaws of Western fame. The train left Syracuse at 5 this morning in charge of Conductor Emil Laas, with Caleb Cherry as engi neer. The coach was on the rear of the train and the money car just ahead. When the train was near Westport the conductor thought he beard the air whistle sound very faintly. It aroused him to the belief that something was wrong on the express car. Going out on , the platform he climbed Into the car, and looking through the hole which the bell cord comes through he saw the up per part of a man, whose face below was concealed by a red flannel mask. -The " messenger he could not see.. He went back and set the air brake and called his two trainmen. Suddenly the man's form appeared at the side door of the express car. Revolver bullets whistled past their ears, and a voice was heard commanding them to signal the engineer to go ahead or take the consequences. The trainmen were unarmed. The con ductor told one of his men to jump off" and run back to Jordan, and telegraph along the line to Rochester that thejr had a train robber on board. An excit ing chase followed his discovery, in "which he attempted to get away on a stolen locomotive, ' and afterwards on horseback, but he was finally captured and has admitted he was the man who at tempted the robbery. He is believed to be the much-wanted Oliver Curtis Perry, who robbed Express Messenger Moore near Utica last fall. The car showed signs of a desperate Struggle. Money packages and jewelry were lying sratr tered about, and everything was stained with blood. Messenger Mclnery was lying bleeding from several wounds and almost unconscious. . Pennoyer Talked Of. Washington-, Feb. 21. Since Senator Hill is liable to be the democratic candi date the friends of Gov. Pennoyer are beginning to think of him as a vice-presidential ' candidate. Legislative clerk Gilfrey, of the senate, who is a demo crat and an Oregon man, has.been asked about Pennoyer and has spoken rather flattering terms of him. . 'Negotiations are being 'conducted between Hill's friends and the people of the various states, and Oregon is o-e of these, which is to be looked after. Hill's idea, is to have the few votes which Oregon will cast at the Chicago convention, taken away from- Cleveland in any event, and placed to his credit, and in return Pen noyer is to receive some vice-presidential votes from some states controlled by Hill.- The purpose in bringing out Pen noyer is to get the votes not only from Oregon but from the other Pacific coast states, and consequently break the Cleveland combination. Hill has said some very flattering things about Pen noyer, and remarked upon bis "vote getting power, and that the party might do a great deal worse than to have him the vice-presidential candidate. Gil frey speaks ot Pennoyer as ja. man with erratic ideas, which make, him popular among a certain class of people in Ore gon, and indicates that he would be apt to pull at least one if not more, Pacific states into the democratic column, if he were, the vice-presidential nominee, ; with Hill At the head of the ticket, and free silver as a cardinal principle of .the democratic platform. .
