Only meager particulars can yet be learned, as the track is not open and no one has come up who knows. It is known that a ' number of carloads of cattle were a part of the train, which were thrown from the track. It is believe'd, also, the Neckwear pease & mays: caboose followed the cattle cars, but whether anyone was injured or not and how bad is the wreck cannot yet be learned. . Indian desperadoes- two Warm Springs Indians Get Wine by Force. A few days ago two burly Indians went 'to the house of Mr. Becht, the California wine maker, living in Thomp son's addition, and finding only Mrs. Becht at home, commanded her to give them some "whisky." The lady replied that they could not have it, whereupon one of them drew out an ugly-looking knife. She became alarmed and" ran out the back door and did not return for some time. The Indians helped them selves to what they wanted and left. ' As it is .quite probable they will do the same thing again, Mr. Becht is alarmed, and does not know exactly the best thing to do. These Indians belong to the Warm Springs reservation and can be identified by Mr. Becht. He hesi tates to use force or endeavor to have them punished by law for fear of revenge.' The Indians really have no right off the reservation, unless permission is granted by the agent.' This law, how ever, has not been -enforced for years. A few such' events as the one related, may, however, direct attention to the beauties of the law,. resulting in its -enforcement. .... A Beautiful Spectacle. The heavens presented another beauti ful sight last evening to all those who were fortunate enough to observe them. The Northern lights brilliantly illumin ated the sky, and the atmosphere was eo surcharged with electricity that the tele graph instruments would not work be tween this point and Helena. An arc of magnificent proportions was described, with the horizon for the base, its outer extremes being in the northwestern and the northeastern sky. The top of this arc arose to about 45 degrees, and the entire segment shown with the electrical brilliancy of the arc light. Above the arc and serving as a back ground was a large expanse of lurid crimson. Streamers or banners of bright white arose from the outer' edge of this vast circle, reaching at times almost to the zenith, which alternately paled and glowed, producing grand effects. Lan guage is inadequate to properly describe the beauty of the scene, and is one of those rare sights which "beggars de scription." . r To the Public.

Circuit court convened at 9 o'clock this morning, and after the usual notices and motions by attorneys, the case of the state' against James Wetle, indicated jointly, with John Krier for the crime of larceny in a dwelling, was taken up. Eighteen jurors were called and examined before the panel was completed. The jury being then sworn to their duties as jurors, W. H. Wilson in a brief manner, outlined to the jury what the state expected to prove in the case, and A. S. Bennett in a carefully worded speech gave the jury an insight as to what the defense would be. Sev--eral witnesses for the state were called and examined" by District Attorney W. H. Wilson, and minutely cross examined by defendant's attorney. Court then took recess until 1 :30 p. ni. "Hearts." As a pleasant variation from the gen eral, rule of whist the Misses Williams entertained their friends with a heart party last evening, complimentry to their cousin, Miss Marshall. Not alone when diamonds were led were hearts captured, but in the endeavor to get rid of as many as possible, they were thrown alike on spades, and even in the face of clubs. A very novel way of keeDins score was introduced, by providing each guest with a wire girdle, on which was hung a tiny bell, of different shades, for every heart taken, making a pretty sou venir when the games were finished. Mr. Lonsdale and Miss FitzGerald were the champion heart gatherers, and took the second prizes, while Mr. Keid and Miss Besse Laiag succeeded in giv ing the largest number away and win ing the first prizes. The lunch v&b "delicious," "palatable," etc., and can not be described even in newspaper par lance. As is usual when these young ladies entertain, nothing was forgotten which' would add to the guests' pleasure. ' PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. W. A. Jones, the Portland marble man, is in the city. . .

If .the injunction holds it will hurtlr Umatilla county severely. It will kill the branch supreme court and remove the state support of her normal echool. - The state of Oregon, through their legislature, said it needed a branch asylum in Eastern Oregon. The Salem hog says it does not. Which is the big gest, the state or the hog? . . .While a man by the name of Taylor poses as the plaintiff in the case, it is generally believed to be only another in stance of Salem's hoggishness to secure the benefits of all state appropriations. The people of Eastern Oregon are justly indignant at the Salem people for en joining the location of the asylum. 'It seems to be well enough for the state to appropriate money, for public institu tions at Salem, Albany, Corvall is, ""Eu gene, Roseburg and. Portland, but when it comes to putting state money in East ern . Oregon it ' is unconstitutional. Wonder if Eastern Oregon isn't a part of the state anyway? The Arlington Record has decided views on the asylum question.: "An injunction has been brought to prevent the purchase . of land and the building of a branch insane asylum pro vided for by the last legislature as a plum for Eastern Oregon in lieu of an approp riation for building a portage road be tween The . Dalles and ... Celilo. The whole scheme was born in corruption and deserves a death that will make jt so dead that no trump will ever blow loud enough to resurrect it.

Mrs. Chaska, nee Cora Bell Fellow, who was married at the Cheyenne River agency three years ago to a San tee Sioux named Chaska, has found life with her dusky spouse unbear able and is now living apart from him in a small town in Southern Nebraska. Several months ago Chaska ' and bis family went to reside on the San tee reservation a short distance up the river from Yankton. Cheska ia a Santee In- dian and, in company with his children receieves a fat government subsidy every three months. After three months' life on - the reservation Chaska suddenly disappeared, and it was, discovered he had eloped with a young and buxom squaw. Mrs. Chaska, after waiting for his return for week, left the reserva tion with her iialf breed children, vow ing she would never live with Chaska again; and, two weeks after she left, Chaska returned to the agency and is living there with the woman who accom panied him in his elopement. He is happy and wants no more to do with his white wife. -NEWS OF THE STATE. fames going from l.a urande to a dance at Elgin by the branch road were compelled to return Dy team, on account of a snow blockade.
