Seized tne THEY ARE CLAIMED BY SPAIN The Affair May Lead to Grave In ternational Difficulties as the Isl ands are Valuable. Madrid, April 11. Much excitement is caused here by a dispatch to the effect that Japan has seized the Bellew isl ands. This group of islands is in the North Pacific, and is claimed to belong to Spain. They are 450 miles east of the Phillipine islands, at the western ex tremity of the Caroline archipelago. The islands are claimed by the Span iards by right of discovery. The gover nor of the Phillipine islands has sent a cable dispatch asking for reinforcements, whether with the object of attacking the Japanese or not is not stated. The Pel lew islands have, about 10,000 inhabi tants, and are very fertile. Their situa tion is between the Phillipine islands and the Caroline islands, both Spanish colonies. This is regarded as a Bign that Japan intends to encroach on the Spanish possessions in the Pacific. The affair may lead to grave difficulties be tween the powers. Bellinger Appointed. The nomination of Hon. Charles B. Bellinger as United States district judge, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of the late Judge Matthew P. Deady, was sent to the senate by the president yesterday. The Telegram thus com ments upon his qualifications : "Judge Bellinger, during his occupancy of the bench, was noted for his courtesy, in dustry and acuteness, as well as for learning and firmness. Policy had little, if anything, to do with his decisions, his conclusions being reached by critical analysis presented with legal and logical force. His experience as judge served to increase his powers of advocacy, and largely adds to his equipments as a law yer. In advocacy before the court he is nearly always- severely logical, though when his case demands it, no one is better able than himself to substitute plausibility for logic to make the "worse appear the better reason." In his jury appeals his own intellectuality causes him to address the head rather than the heart, and hence his success in jury trials is greater with an intelligent than an ignorant panel. His wit is well known, and often has his antagonist at the bar winced under his incisiveness. His mind is noted for alertness; in all his actions moral sense is predominant ; he is a reader, student and thinker ; he possesses unusual powers aB a writer, and has talents in general that would make him conspicuous and bring him success in anv station. The Choctaw Troubles. Washington, April 11. Secretary Hoke Smith has received the following telegram from Agent Bennett at Musko gee, 1. T. : "Am reliably advised that both fac tions of the Choctaws are being strongly reinforced. The presence of the mili tary alone will prevent a conflict. Troops should be sent to Antlers as quickly as possible. Will go there when advised the troops have started. A telegram just received from Atoka says 100 men are going to the location of the trouble if the government does not interfere." As requests have already been made to the department to send troops, no furthur action will be taken. A Spiritual Siren. At Spokane the name of the Amazon who commands the Salvation Army is "Captain Bennett." Not only is she a champion of the church militant, but she is a breaker of men's hearts, as well. She is, in fact; as irrepressible as Chlo rinda, and her personal charms are as terrible to men as her spiritual powers are formidable to the prince of dark ness. There has been a scene about her at Spokane. One D. W. Hoskins began to attend the Salvation Army meetings. He straightway fell "desper ately in love," as he says in a letter to the newspapers, with "Captain Ben nett." But, "while he talked of love, she labored to induce him to come to Jesus," He persisted in his suit till a talk arose about it and the story got into the newspapers. Then the Salvation Army's defenders rushed to her support, in letters to the press, and he replied in self-justification, saying that he had lavished upon her all the wealth of his manly love and she had promised to marry him, but had proved false; and when he became convinced that it was her custom to break men's hearts in this way he had resolved to expose her. "It was not right," he thought, "for a woman who proposed to bring souls to Christ to have a new lover in every town she visited and leave bo many broken hearts behind her." But, he adds, "I shall never forget the many happy hours I spent at her home, or the long walks we so often took, even though I know she played with my heart for her own amusement." It seems to us that our legislatures have too long refused the protection necessary to men like Mr. Hoskins.

An effort is being made by Carlyle Harris' lawyer to save him from elec trocution. The governor of New York has not yet given his decision. RichanlEon has been bound over un der $6,000 bonds, on a charge of train wrecking. It is thought it will be a dif ficult matter to find a jury that would convict him, owing to the difficulty of securing evidence. ANOTHER VETERAN GONE. Death of Abram Dally, a Survivor of the War of 1812. It is long ago since the "Treaty of Peace and Amity between Great Brit ain and the United States of America" was signed at Ghent on December 24, 1814. And not until February 11 of the following; year did the "great and joy ful news" reach New York. Among those who rejoiced, says Harper's Weekly, was a young man of nineteen, a corporal in the Eleventh (New York) heavy artillery. He had been on duty at Port Gansevoort and upon the heights of Harlem, guarding McGow an's pass. After this he had been sta tioned at the blockhouse in Central park. A few days before the news of the treaty reached New York the young man had been honorably dis charged from service, and, following the -American example, he forthwith went into business. That wasseventy- ABRAM DALLY. eight years ago, and the ex-corporal, who was Abram Dally, has just died. To all New Yorkers the figure, or at least the name, of "Gen." Abram Dally is familiar. The advancing years gained for him the honorary title, and upon national holidays the old man, at tired in full uniform, would hoist the flag over the old blockhouse in Central park and also at the Battery. When ever the flag was raised by the veteran he was escorted by the Washington continental guards, and the occasions were always pleasing and something ipart from the busy life of the city. 3en. Dally lived of late years with his grandson in Brooklyn, where he died an February 16, nearly ninety-eight years of age. Tne United Btates gov ernment allowed him a pension of $8 per per month. A Ueyser Clock. A California man is engaged in per fecting a very ingenious device, which he expects to become one of the chief at tractions of his native town when it is completed. It is a great clock, the fig ures upon the face of which can be seen at some distance, and is worked not by means of the ordinary cog-wheels and other appliances, but by a geyser which spouts near by. The geyser has been studied carefully by this inventive genius, and he has discovered that it bubbles and rises every tnirty-eignt seconds as regularly as clock-work would require. Every time it rises, a lever so arranged that it is reached by the water is set in motion, and the clock hands are by it pushed forward just thirty-eight seconds. It will be when completed a most interesting ma chine, and will rejoice in the distinction of being the only one of its kind in the world. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S.

College Notes. Corvallis, Or. April 11, 1893. To the Editor ox Tub Chronicle. The cold, rainy weather still con tinues. On the evening of April 3d, the two societies of the preparatory department of the Agricultural college, gave a liter ary contest for a silver medal. The ex ercises were conducted by the president of the societies. The judges were Gov ernor Pennoyer, E. B. McElroy, super intendent of public instruction, and President Prince Campbell, of the State Normal school. The total number of points possible for either society to make was 1,900. The Athenian society made 1,753 points, while the Madisonians made 1,755. When the decision of the judges was made known, President Bloss stepped forward, and, with suitable re marks, handed the shining medal to Miss Addie Deavenport, the president of the vanquished Athenians, who placed it upon the bosom of Madieonian presi dent, Miss Jennie Thorn bury. The Cireronians and Websterians are preparing for a contest to take place sometime between now and June 15th". The Ciceronians are not willing to let the Websterians hold the gold medal in peace. A Young Woman's Christian Associa tion was organized at the college last Friday. On that same day, the Y. M. C. A. sent delegates to Albany to attend the fourth annual conference of district No. 3. This district includes all Western Oregon, and contains thirteen associa tions. While the convention was in session, the first Y. M. C. A building in Oregon, the one at Albany was dedicated. The building cost something over $3,000. and contains a good gymnasinm, a read ing room, parlors, bath rooms, etc. Our school is losing comparatively few students this spring. Students taking the agricultural course, will have to report at the farm or orchard for work today. BtJNCHGRASS.
