It was not generally known bat The
Dalles had a genuine sham battle on the
4th. The militia companies got into it
while the exercises were going on at the
grand stand. One thousand rounds of
ammunition were shot away.
The loss of the Wamic saw mill, on
4th, by fire, is not only a heavy loss to
the owner, Mr. A. E. Lake, but "it is a
great loss to the people. Mr. Lake
loses about $6,000. He was doing a fine
business up to the day of the fire.
It is unsafe to go fishing, hunting or

There has not yet been anything of. a
certain convincing character published

Here is the record of the free silver
coinage men to date. They ' have been'
repulsed by the republicans at Minne
apolis, by the democrats at Chicago and
by the prohibitionists at ; Cincinnati.
But the convention at Omaha gave them
a chance to vary the monotony of falling
outside the breastworks. It is a good
thing that the people are to have a
chance to tell by their votes in Novem
ber what they think of the theories of
the free coinage advocates. The people
know their business.
Teamsters from Grant county state
that the entire wool clip of that county
and Harney "will seek a railroad outlet
at Baker City this year. The reason for
this is that better inducements are
offered the producer, and it is money in
their pockets to go to Baker city with
their shipments. Another thing that
tends to Baker city's advantage is that
the road to Hoppner is in such a bad
condition that heavily loaded wagons
cannot travel over it.
If you want an outing go to the Blue

A Washington dispatch says the dem
ocrats of the house are desperate. They
have determined to pass the free-silver
bill, and a rule will be brought in to re
fer the bill to the committee on coinage,
weights and measures, without allowing
any further filibustering. Another rule
will be brought in making Friday sus
pension day, in which all bills may bo
passed under suspension of the rules by
a two-thirds vote, without an . opportu
nity to filibuster. This is to take the
place of a regular suspension day of last
Monday, which was lost on account of
being the Fourth of July. The com
mittee on rules will also give a day
next week for the consideration of the
free-coinage bill, and if there is a disposi
tion to filibuster and not allow a vote to
be taken after it is reported; the com
mittee on rules will bring in a rule aur
thorizing the suspension of the rules by
a majority of the house. This is a most
unheard-of thing, and will allow a ma
jority of 'the house, if in favor of free
silver, to pass the free-coinage bill, but
it is also the intention that the free-lum
ber and the free tin-plate bills, and all
other tariff bills npon which the repub
licans have been filibustering, shall be
passed nnder this majority suspension
rule. The idea of including the various
free-trade bills reported by the ways and
means committee is intended for a eort
of sop to be thrown out to the free
traders, who are all anti-silver men, aud
to heal the wounds which tlie passing of
the silver bill will make.
How Tunnrl Kali a Kunl.
As showing how rails rust in tunnels,
one has but to look at a lot piled up in
the U. P. E. yard,' which calls to mind
a statement concerning observations in
the Altenberk tunnel, which is about
1230 feet long and located on a curve of
2950 feet radius. The rails have been
been doww for eleven years, and, at the
end of that time, were covered to a
depth of .16 to .24 inch by hard scales,
which could only . lje removed by a
knife. They were composed mainly of
iron sulphide, and were found princi
pally on the web. 'While the weight of
tho rail was much reduced in this man
ner, its sectional area was found to have
increased, owing to the flakey character
of the rust. The new rails have been
covered" with a mixture consisting largely
of tar, which . is renewed every six
months. -' The gravel ballast has also re
ceived a partial covering of broken lime
stone, and by this means it is hoped
that the ' formation of rust will be re
tarded. In the Brandleite .tunnel in
Thuringten it was found that rails and
metal ties were destroyed by rust as
fast as by the passing trains. The ties
lost about 5.0 pounds each in 6ix years
This tunnel is nearly 10,000 feet long,
and is on a tangent, having a one per
cent grade.

A Long SlVep In Silesia
A most peculiar case of prolonged sleep
is at present occupying the attention of
medical circles' in Germany. A miner
named Johann Latus is an inmate of the
hospital at Myslowitz, in Silesia, where
he- was admitted four months and. a half
ago, and since then all efforts, to wake
him have been fruitless. Dr. Albera,
the doctor attending him, is of the opin
ion that the apparent sleep is really a
state of catalepsy, though medical-science
has on record no previous case of such a
prolonged nature. He has arrived at
this conclusion on account of all the
limbs ' being absolutely rigid. - The ap
pearance of the man, however, betrays
no signs of this. The . body lies quite
still, the breathing is regular, and there
is a healthy color in the cheeks. In the
last few days the body has become much
less rigid, and the patient has even made
some slight movement, withqut, how
ever, the eyes opening or the condition
of apparent sleep being" in any way dis
turbed. In the four months and a half
that tho sleep has lasted the hair has in
creased in length, but tjie beard has re
mained stationary. Nourishment to th:
extent of two or .three liters of milk is
administered daily by a tnbo inserted
into tho throat. Vienna Letter. .

of brown ash was used in the construc
tion of the wheel, as well as lS.OOOJs by
8-inch screws, a lot of iron rods, tons
of iron and quarts of glue. Tho small
wooden sections are fastened together
by glue and tho screws, and to strengthen
the whole there are stout iron rods pass
ing through the sections in addition to
this. The screws are driven by steam
power. To make, the -whole mass as
compact as possible narrow openings
were left between some of the sections,
and into these were tightly driven well
fitting wedges soak.d in boiling hot
glue.

Coolness tn at Mixed College.
There is a coolness between the boys
and the girls of the Stanford university.
It all came about from a question of pro
priety. The boys gave a ball in their
dormitory hall on Monday night, to
which they invited all the girl students,
as well as the - professors. Elaborate
preparations were made, and the young
men anticipated an evening of enjoy
ment. They hired a band, and had the
.dormitory beautifully decorated.
One or two of the more modest and re
tiring of the maidens in the girls' dormi
tory were shocked at the- avowed .inten
tion of some of the girls? to attend the
ball, and called a meeting of the girls, at
which there wits a long discussion of the
affair.
Many of the fair students said they
could see no harm in going to the ball as
long as the professors were willing, but
the more prudish damsels read a strong
lecture on the evils of such doings, and,
on a vote, there was a majority in favor
of not attending the ball. So none of
them went.
The boys waited long for the coming
of the fair ones, but they came not. At
first the collegians were very angry.
Then they took the dancing floor them
selves and made a "stag" party of it.
They say, however, that for . future fes
tivities they will send no invitations to
the girl students. . This suits the ultra
modest among the latter, but the sociable
girls ' feel crushed. San ' Francisco
Chronicle. "
Visitors And th Chinese Kn pciror.
Until the present generation oar min
isters have never been received by the
emperor in person. The Chinese have
; fought against such receptions as sacri-I
iegious. in 1BV, nowever, tne roreign
ministers forced the emperor to receive
them, and in 1891 the new emperor gave
his first reception to the foreign diplo
mats. . He prooably will have to do this
many times in the future. I have re
ceived a letter from China describing
this reception and saying that it had a
great influence on the Chinese at Peking.
It allows the people that these so called
"tribute bearers" are worthy of notice
and makes them respect oar ministers.
The last emperor 'wanted .the diplo
mats to go down on their knees and
bump their heads against the floor nine
times in front of the emperor, as the
Chinese do, but they refused to do this,
and no attempt was made' to demand
this on the . present occasion. . The Chi
nese idea is to make the foreign minis
ters, as far as possible, contemptible in
the eyes of the' people, and it was fpur
months before the audience of 1873 could
be arranged. Frank G. Carpenter to

Women Lnnchoai.
It is noticeable that at tho. luncheon
rooms of the' -several woman's ex
changes, as well as .at several of the res
taurants in the shopping districts, broken
orders are possible. This is especially
true of tho menus of the exchanges,
which are managed by- women solely
for women. It is a concession to on ac
cepted f;ict that women ordering and
eating alone greatly dislike to pay for a
mouthful' more than can be consumed.
