We will exhibit iii our Corner Window on SATURDAY,
February 24th a line of Neckwear, which we are now opening up.
The Silks are extremely handsome, and many, of the Ties
should have been marked to sell for 50 cents; but we have so far
successfully resisted the temptation to do so, and will place them on
sale at the uniform price of 25 cents.
. They are good enough for anybody, at. any "time, and at
any price. . '

A very pleasant afternoon whiSt party
was given at the home of Mrs. H. Glenn
yesterday. The score cards were -very

portrait of George Washington painted
by Mrs. Glenn herself and on the other a

by Mrs. Bradshaw and the second by
Mrs. Garretson. ' " ,
Freight No. 21 was wrecked last night
three miles this side of Troutdale. 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

The Wettle Case.
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.

: Tiie Union Republican contains the
following demurrers to the injunction
salt: -
The Saleni hog will keep at it till it
roots the capital to Portland.
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. 'Is it not
about time we were hearing of aspirants
for the legislature on the portage road
question?"

Another American girl seeking notori

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

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.
