Mr. and Mrs. Peter Faurie, late of Il

a costly nature.
During the past two years there have
been 757 commitments to the state pen

in which Wasco county has been
exempt. There are none charged up

tution. Multnomah heads the list with
309; Umatilla is next highest, having

Douglas thirty-two; . Union twenty-
eight. Thirty counties are in the list.
The annual masquerade ball of Jjfck-
on Engine Co. should receive liberal
patronage, as this is the pioneer fire
company of The Dalles, having been or-
ganized in 1S63. During the many
devastating conflagrations that have
visited the city, this company has always
done its duty towards saving property.
Nearly all of vhe original members havel
passed away to the "silent shore," an

Clifton D. Stevens', a young man about
20 years old, a student of the university
of Oregon, at Eugene, was killed about
midnight Sunday night by a shock from
the electric light wire. He was with a
Jpart7 of friends returning from a watch
party, and playfully jumped and swung
his weight on the cable which suspends
the arc light. His' weight raised the
lamp so as to turn the current into the
cable which he was holding, and when
he touched the ground he was immedi
ately killed. His death should be a
warning to others, not to fool with elec-

The Salem Organization.
Salem .reports say no ooe appears to
have arisen yet to contest the presi
dency of the senate with Hirsch or the
speakership of the house with Keady.
For chief clerk of the 6enate, the natural
selection would be O. P. Miller, both on
account of his admirable work in the
same capacity two years ago and the
unwritten law in the party which re
turns a man to a place he has once filled
well. Whether as secretary of the race
course at the state fair, or as United
States deputy marshal, or in the coun
cils of his party, Mr. Miller's tireless
industry and accommodating ways en
dear, him to all he comes in contact
with. He appears to have no formida
ble opposition. For the corresponding
place in the house John Michell, editor
of The Dalles Tinies-Mountaineer, will
have a strong following, and if he makes
an effort for it will probably succeed.
A. C. Jennings, ex-repreeentative
from Lane county, is also a candidate,
and R. P. Hays, who voted for Harrison
at Minneapolis.. Whether "Bob" can
make his peace with the faithful remains
to be seen. M. C. Starr, of Salem, has
announced himseli as a candidate for
reading clerk of the house. J. B. Eddy
will probably be reading r.lerk of the
se'nate. He comes with two or three
terms to his credit; and the added pres
tige of his "native son" speech, in nom
inating J. C. Leasure for congress at the
last state convention. The position of
sergeant-at-arms of the senate, it seems
to be conceded, M. Pomeroy, of Colum
bia county, an ex-representative, can
have if he will allow his name to be
used. J. C. Blundell, of Donglas county,
will most likely capture the correspond
ing place in the house.
e A. F. O. T. B. O. U. bovs last

A WAIF'S ADVENTl'KK.
A IO-Yer-Md Hoy I'.onrdu the Pilot of
. the Niglit Paseiier.
One of the touching incidents of life
that "makes the world akin," occurred
in the eariy part of the week. An east
bound passenger engineer, while walk
ing around his engine during the cus
tomary stop at Hood River, observed a
little ball of humanity curled up on the
pilot of his enginewho was shivering
with cold and obviously very miserable.
As is frequently the case in some na
tures, the b'g fellow sought to check the
big lump rising in his throat by doing
something harsh ; so he shouted: "What
in are you doing here?'. The mock
menace completely overcame the already
straining nerves of the little fellow, and
breaking into a wail, he sought to es
cape from his position. Ere he could
do so the engineer gathered him in his
arms, and, as tenderly as an infant,
carried him to his cab, and warmed
him, and then the story was told. '
He was 10 years old, had lost his par
ents, and was living with strangers at
Fairview, a short distance this side of
Portland. His life, for some reason,
was,unhappy and. he thought he would
escape by getting aboard the engine of
the night train, where he would prob
ably be unobserved. He had a married
sister living a mile and a half from Pen
dleton, and thither he was bound.
His story waa told with the sincerity
of childhood, and the engineer was sat
isfied he was speaking truly.' Arriving
at The Dalles he made arrangments the
following day for the continuance of his
journey to its destination.
Had the engine have struck any ob
ject whatever the boy must have been
killed during . his miserable journey
from Fairview to Hood River. The re
porter regrets that it is not bis province
to further follow the fortunes of the
little waif and tell of his reception by his
sister, but, unlike the novelist, that
pleasure is denied. But in all likeli
hood he will be well cared for. -
