BRIEF MENTION.
Lm From the Notebook of Chronicle
Reporters.
The jury in tbe Savage case returned
a verdict tonight of larceny, fixing tbe
value of the stolen goods at $14,000.
The ladies Guild" of the St. Paul's
Church will meet with Mrs. L. Clark,
tomorrow, Thursday afternoon at 2 :30.
The weather prognostications for to
morrow are warmer, rainy. Mr. Brooks
tells us that the barometer is lower to
day than be ever saw it and still falling.
At 3 :30 it stood at 29.16. This indicates
a heavy storm, not necessarily here, but
probably on the coast.
An alarm of fire about 4 :30 yesterday
afternoon was caused by a small blaze at
Jos. T. Peters planing mill. - Tbe en
gines were called out, but a couple of
buckets of water had effectually subdued
the flames even before the alarm was
fairly turned in.
The "Uncle Tom's Cabin" troupe
was to arrive here on the freight from
Pendleton this afternoon, but the en-'
gine broke down at Blalocka, delaying
- them so that they will not arrive before
6 o'clock.- The play will not be inter
fered with, and the curtain will rise
promptly on time. '
The case of the State against Savage
was given to the jury last evening at
about 4 :30. There seemed to be a gen
eral impression that the jury would fail
to agree, an impression that the action
of the jury is justifying, as at the hour
of going to press they were still out.
There is a rumor that the jury is pretty
evenly divided, standing seven for con-
miction and five for acquittal, but
.whether there is any foundation for the
rumor it is hard to say.
::" Yesterday' in letting a car down the
incline at the Cascade Locks the brakes
were iaicen on Deiore tne cable . was
fastened to the car and it sped down the
incline, which has a fall of about one
. foot in three at a mile-a-minute gait.
It struck the guard of tbe wharf boat near
the end cutting it off squarely. This
checked its force, somewhat, enough that
as it struck the pile at the foot jf the In
cane it resisted the blow and threw
the car back on the bank by the side of
tlie "river. '- . ' ' . '

Hood Blrer Incorporated.
Hood River held an election yesterday
to' decide if it should . be incorporated.
Eighty-four votes were cast of which 49
wer for and 35 against incorporation.
The following officers were elected : .
Mayor, C. M. Wolfard; councilmen,
S. E. Bartmess, F. H. Button, O. B.
Hartley, L. E. Morse, J.E. Rand and J.
F. Watt ; recorder, C. P. Heald ; treas
urer, M. H. Nickelaen : marshal. E. S.
dinger. ' '
We are pleased indeed to Bee the spirit
of progress evinced by our thrifty little
neighbor. In spite of a strong opposi
tion incorporation . was carried by a
handsome majority. The fears of. those
opposed to the measure, that there
would be great expense following incor
poration we believe are utterly ground
less. . There will be some expense, it is
true, but there will - be ast benefits.
Grades can' be established, so that he
who desires to build will know where to
place his building. The water supply of
the town can be acquired, and hundreds
of other things necessary to the growth
of the town can be accomplished'. Jlood
River will grow more rapidly than any
town in Oregon for the next ten years,
and she is incorporated none too soon.
May- she grow and prosper until the
whole beautiful slope whereon she rests
is a busy mart of trade, is tbe earnest
and honest wish of The Chronicle.
Scott and Borenson Arrested.
The Portland Sun this morning says :
"On complaint of I. R. Birt, formerly-
manager of the now defunct Cape Horn
Telegraph Company, Harvey W. Scott,
of the Oregoniah, and A. Sorenson, man
ager of the Telegram, were yesterday
arrested- on a "charge of criminal libel
and marched to the Mount Tabor justice
court as any ordinary prisoners. Upon
paying their respects to the court the
two prisoners were releasedjipon their
own recognizances to answer to charge
at 10 o'clock this morning.-
The article upon which the charge of
libel is predicted appeared in the Even
ing Telegram about a month.ago. In,
it, so .Birt alleges, appeared false and
malicious statements against him and
Mrs. Johnson, a telegraph operator for
merly in his employ, with whom he was
alleged tp haye eloped.
It is understood tha( Mr. Scott will
prove an "alibi" on the ground that he
is not connected with Tbe Telegram and
has no control over its management.
Mr. Sorenson's defense will be a lack
of intent, as he claims that the article
was received in good faith and, published
as a news item. ' .. ' '
The case will no doubt prove an in
teresting one" and may lead to some de
velopment not yet down on he pro'
gramme. ' - - " ' : . , -:

nothing so good as a piece of flannel

It affords prompt and permanent relief
