John Cradlebaugh claims that his pro

The experience of Mr. Harper Satar
day night will probably teach him that
a city policeman is safer in a Sunday
-school than in a saloon, and if be don't
want to be robbed and gagged be should
attend places where, the change is so
. small that it will furnish less incentive
for robbers.
The Oregonian is wrong in -stating
that The Dalles fire bell is cracked and

as fine a bell as any in Portland, weighs

of the party was probably robbery, as

CONCERNING LIONEL STAGGE.
Rev. Curtns'
Eloquent Flea
Young Man. , -
for the
W. C. Curtis, pastor of the Congrega
tional church, took for the subject of his
discourse yesterday morning "Falling
and rising." In the course of the ser
mon he referred to Lionel Stagge essen
tially as follows: -
The secular press baa given as the
past 'week a story of an individual fall
and rise, which has seemed to take from
the realm of fiction, and place among
the fact 8 of life that wondrous creation
of Victor Hugo Jean Valjean. We
have read with breathless sympathy the
story of a man who, for a crime small
enough compared with the sins of many
who are still honored among men, bat a
sin and crime for which he is neverthe
less sent to the state's prison. While
there expiating his crime he gives such
evidence of his true penitence and noble
purpose as to win the respect and affec
tion of his keepers, and comes out with
this one purpose to conceal his narre
and redeem his character.. ..He succeeded
in redeeming his character. It would
seem that he might have been allowed
to keep that terrible secret his name,
ana an ms naunung iears nave oeen
silenced at the last; bat no, someone
with a motive like hell mast pry his
secret up to the eyes of the world that
has grown to trust and honor him.
What the result will be we are waiting
to see. Meanwhile may we not rejoice
that so many are crying for fair play, are
declaring that there is forgiveness with
men as well as with God, that this man
has done better, it may be, than we all,
inasmuch as with everything . against
bim he did make for himself an honora
ble name and place did.' make himself
noble, and perhaps with a quality and
reach of nobleness which nothing but
his fall could have wrought for him.
If there is one fundamental article of
our creed it is this: "I believe in the
forgiveness of sins," for it is that which,
working with - human penitence and
effort makes as partakers of the' divine
nature. . But we who believe in the
divine forgiveness, and need it, have
this word to speak in God's name this
word of forgiveness. It is ours to say
the word of remission, and to "Bay it so
incerely and strongly that it shall be a
part of God's word of forgiveness to the
penitent. I do not wish to say a word
which will lessen, but rather to empha
size, the power of the warning which
comes even Irom tnis case, to anyone
who may be tempted to swerve from the
line of strictest rectitude and honor,
under the impression that society ' will
forgive upon repentance and reforma
tion. True repentance and reformation,
even if they come, find slow and partial
recognition ; and the sinner finds to his
lasting sorrow that "the way of the
transgressor is hard." Still it is pars,
while we deplore and deprecate the sin,
to forgive ; and I would to God that the
churches as well as the press of this re
gion would speak oat this word so
straightly that all shall know and most
ol all, this noble and Buttering man
that it is not ours to put down, but to
lift up; it is not oars to condemn but to
forgive ; it is not ours to be forever look
ing on the faults or the sins of men, but
the rather to be quick and keen to detect
the motions of penitance and the efforts
for a noble life. Arid if perchance a
man has attained it in spite of what
would have crashed as, or driven us
back to more or worse sin and hell, shall
we be so blind as not to see it, so Phari
saical and perverse, so much the children
of hell, that we shall only see the sin
that was, and have no power to see the
truth and right and nobleness when
they loom and shine in a noble man
hood, or, seeing them, will not allow
them, but will only call them evil still
mat is wnat l understand to be the "sin
against the Holy Ghost," which Jeans
tells us shall never be forgiven, neither
this world (age) nor in the world to
come.

Eagene Campbell Disappears.
. Eugene Campbell, aged 33 years,
brother of the publishers of the Eugene
Guard, and for several years "past a com
positor" in that office, mysteriously dis
appeared from his case Wednesday
morning about 9:30 o'clock. A careful
search failed to find any trace of him.
News reached there Saturday morning
from ' thirty-five miles up the Middle
Fork river that a man was found dying
there, bis clothes soaking wet, and a
bloody knife with a broken blade lying
near by. He died before relieved.
From his description it is almost certain
he is Campbell. The affair is wrapped
in mystery. "
THEY OBEYED-
Ben Wilson and J. Harper Asked
to
Hold Up Their Hands.
About 12 o'clock Saturday night two
masked men entered Ben Wilson's sa
loon from a rear door and advanced
with drawn revolvers to the front of the
saloon. They wore Diamond Mills flour
sacks over their heads, with large holes
cut is them to see through, and their
weapons were old fashioned cap and ball
revolvers. J.' Harper, night watchman
at the East End, and Ben Wilson, owner
of the saloon, were the only occupants
at the time. Harper was ordered to
throw np his hands. ' He laughed good
naturedly, supposing it was a practical
joke, and that the majesty of the law
would never be insulted in this manner
by anyone really contemplating robbery.
He playfully reached for his own revol
ver, but was quickly undeceived when
the spokesman said sternly: -
This is no joke, sir ; throw np your
hands, or I will bore your liver." Up
went Harper's bands ; and as he glanced
at Wilson he saw that his were already
np.
'Now face yourself to the wall, hands
high," was the next order to Harper.
Wilson was then ordered to open the
till, and then march across the room to
Harper, and stand behind him in the
same manner. The robbers secured $35
from the till, and relieved Harper of bis
revolver and billy. They tried to take
his star, but it would not come off
easily and they let it remain. r They
were ordered to stand just In that posi
tion until the robbers left the room,
which they did oat of the. same door
that they entered. When a few seconds
had elapsed after they were gone. Har
per broke the silence by cautiously turn
ing around and saying :
"Ben, ain't this hell?"
No trace can be found of the robbers,
though Mr. Bert Tharston believes he
saw them pass his house just after he
returned from a society installation of
officers Saturday night. One was short
and one tall, but this is about the only
description that can be furnished by the
men who were robbed. . .
W. R. C. and G. A. XI. Installations.
One of the most pleasant evenings of
the winter was enjoyed Satarday even
ing by those who attended the inslalla
tion of the officers of the Women's Be
lief Corps and of the Grand Army post
at Fraternity hall.- The hall was very
prettily decorated and arranged for the
occasion, the ceremonies being public
and they are quite imposing and very
pretty. It was a very eager audience
that assembled to witness them. The
installing officer, Mrs. Alice Varney was
assisted by Miss Anne Lang, who fur
nished excellent music, the relief corps
installation ceremonies being done to
music; and never in the history of The
Dalles corps was a prettier ceremony
performed. The officers installed were
Mrs. Mary S. Myers, president : JUrs
Blanche Pattterson, sen. vice; Mrs
Elizabeth Joles, iun. vice; Mrs. Mary
Nichols, secretary ; Mrs. Belle Berger,
treasurer ; Mrs Mamie Briggs, chaplain
Mrs. Annie Urquhart, conductor ; Mrs.
Mary Kelsay, guard ; Miss Mary Frazer,
asst. con. ; Mrs. Mary Learned, asst,
guard.
After the ladies had completed their
work, the officers of J. W. Nesmith Post
of the G. A. R. were installed by Post
Commander W. S. Myers. It was very
nice, but the popular verdict was that
the ladies were entitled to the honors
The officers installed were : CH Brown
C. ; H. H. Learned, Sen. V. C. ; L. H,
Nichols, Jr. V. C. ; J. Lemison, Sec. ; F.
T. Esping, Chaplain E. N. Chandler
Q. M. ; J. M. Patterson, Adjt. ; J. W
Lewis, Q. M. S. : B. L. Aiken, O. D.
W. S. Myers, O. G.
After tbe installation ceremonies were
completed, all repaired to Keller's re
iresnment parlors, wnere a very nice
collation was served, after which the
evening passed in social amusements of
varied nature. '
After the officers of the Belief Corpi
were iormaiiy inducted into tneir re
spective offices, President Mrs. Myers
in a very neat and pointed address, pre
sented the retiring president, Mrs. Var
ney, on behalf of the Corps, with an ele
gam gold recognition pin. it was ac
knowledged ,by Mrs. Varney, "who
thanked the ladies very much for the
unexpected gift, stating that she now
knew that it was possible for a woman
to keep a secret, as it bad been preserved
so well that she had heard nothing of it

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Gustavo Bartell Thrown from a- Dorse
- and Instantly Killed.
Gastave Bartell, a harness maker well
known in The Dalles, was instantly
killed at 3 :30 o'clock yesterday afternoon
by being thrown from a horse near his
residence in Thompson's addition, -j? He
started out to drive a calf to the farm of
his son-in-law, Charles Koehler ot 15-
Mile. The calf was refractory and two
of bis boys were helping him to make
the start. They were on foot a little dis
tance behind. One of the boys shouted
to his father to untie a rope which was
around the horse's neck and use it to
lash the calf with. The father did so,
leaning forward upon the horse.. . It is
probable that one of his spurs touched
the horse in the flank when he plunged,
throwing Mr. Bartell headlong to tbe
ground, and in such a manner as to dis
locate his neck. The spinal cord was
severed. . The only movement made by
the dying man was to raise himself up
on one elbow.- He eaid "Oh, my," and
fell back dead.
The boys carried their father, with
other assistance to the bouse, and Dr.
Hollister was sent for. - But his services
were not required. The vital 'spark had
fled before tbe summons was given. No
inquest will be held, as the cause of
death is apparent.
Mr. Bartell ' is the father of thirteen
children, most of whom are grown, and
he - has been living with his wife and
live or six of the children for: several
years in Thompson's addition. . For the
last six years he has been working in
the harness shop of Farley & Frank,
quitting work about a month ago on
account of the depression in trade. He
has worked only a dayor two since.
Mr. Farley was seen by a reporter this
morning, who said the deceased was a
skilled workman, and steady in his
habits, never having lost a day while in
their employ. -
The family have the sympathy of all
in their sad misfortune. -
