consequence the good old-fashioned,

' Circuit court is about over for the
term. There are a few writs of review
and sqme questions of law to be decided,
but these will probably be cleared up so
that court will adjourn for the term to
morrow. The funeral of Patrick Farrelltook
place today. Instead of allowing the
body of the old man to be laid away at
the expense of the county, Mr. Nicholas,
proprietor of the Columbia hotel, for
whom Farrell worked at times, bore the
expenses of the funeral.
Rusco & Swift's "Uncle Tom's Cabin
troupe showed last night to a well filled
house. The troupe ib a very good one
and the characters were well sustained.
The stage is not large enough to put the
piece on properly, for as a matter of fact
the play depends largely on its stage
settings, and requires extra stage room.
The part of little Eva was particularly
well taken, and Topsy was an incorrigi

times.

That he made no mistake is evident
from the way the business was begun.
The Sun says that five or six indict
ments were found the first day, and it is
pafe to say that that grand jury with the
Col. at its head will run through such a
grist of work as will make the record
and break all previous ones.

The Savage 'Verdict.
The jury in the Savage case, some
what contrary to expectations, after be
ing out so long, brought in a verdict last
night finding defendent guilty of larceny
only, and fixing the value of the stolen
property at $14,000. He was indicted
for larceny from an office, and had the
jury found him guilty as charged, the
maximum penalty for the offense would
have been seven years. Ttie penalty
under the verdict as given has a larger
time, being ten years. There is a gen
eral feeling of satisfaction with the ver
dict, the public being almost unani
mous in Savage's guilt. Besides, there
is a leeling that the fair reputation of
the city was in the hands of the jury
and that it has not suffered thereby.
A Too Short Evening.
The friends of the Misses Lay, who
were invited to spend last evening at
their home, on Liberty street, are in
doubt as to whether a more pleasant
evening will be spent during the winter
than that enjoyed on this occasion.
After a number of games of whist, lunch
came next in order, and then, the car
pet having been coyered with canvas,
dancing was indulged until the hour for
departing. The following were present :
Mr. and Mrs. Brigga, Dr. and Mrs.
Eshelman, Mr. and Mrs. Hobson, Mr.

Perpetually Happy.
Yesterday afternoon's downpour dis

Oregonians were afflicted with in conse

this fall, and the streets, even during the
heaviest rain, presented an animated
appearance, itain nas no terrors for a

year be feels uncomfortable without it
and the gentle (?) shower of yesterday
afternoon made everybody feel happy.

Decline of Polygamy in Utah.
Glen Miller, in the December Forum.
With the division of the Mormons on
National party-lines, the renunciation of
their obnoxious creed, and the inaugura
tion of "the era of good feeling" in Utah,
there has been a complete cessation of
prosecutions for polygamy : and numbers
of old-time offenders have resumed rela
tions with their "plural" wives, with
practical immunity from punishment.
But the prop of polygamy, its social res
pectability and exaltation as a religious
virtue, has been taken away. These old
polygamists visit their .younger wives
precisely as a married man in an Eastern
community might consort with a mis
tress quietly and stealthily, not openly
or boastfully as formerly. Their con
duct is under the ban of the Church,
and since it is no longer justified by a
religious principle, is regarded simply as
an affair of lust or of affection for former
associations too strong to withstand.
We find a close analogy to this condition
of things in the prohibition States
where, in spite of stringent laws, the old
toper undergoes any. humiliation to se
cure his favorite beverage. Human na
ture does not differ greatly in .New York,
Massachusetts, Kansas, or Utah. But,
with the passing away of the present
generation, the last vestige of polygamy
will disappear.. No edict of the Church
could restore it. An insurmountable
barrier in the way of its resumption is
arising in the eocial amalgamation of
Gentiles and Mormons. Intermarriages
between the two classes have rapidly in
creased under the new conditions. With
in a decade, the distinguishing character
istics of Mormonism will be no stronger
in Utah than the distinguishing charac
teristics of Catholicism, Presbyterianism
or Methodism.
At the Cascade Locks.
Work at the Cascades on the canal
and lock a is being pushed more rapidly
and successfully than ever. Between
400 and 500 men are at work constantly.
Above the upper bulkhead the outer
wall is now under "way ; the trench is
completed; a foundation of seven feet of
concrete has been laid, and on top of
this several courses of stone are in place.
The trench next the shore is about com
pleted, and the wall will soon be under
way there. The lower end-walls are
also being put in good shape, and in a
few weeks will be well along and in con
dition to be completed quickly. An im
mense derrick is being put in place for
handling the gates, one of which is on
the ground ready to be put together.
Sections of another of the gates arrived
with the past ' week. The upper bulk
head will not be touched until after the
next high water ; but it is believed the
work will be practically completed, ex
cept removing that and laying the walls
to connect, by next spring, if the wea
ther will permit the work to be carried
on.
The contract of the Days calls for the
completion of the work next June ; bat
this will be impossible. It is believed,
thongh, that ere this . time next year
boats, wilt pass through the canal.

The success that has attended the use
of Dr. J. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Lin
ament in the relief of pain and in curing
diseases which seemed beyond the reach
of medicine, has been truely remarkable.
Hundreds supposed - to be crippled for
life with arms and legs drawn up crook
ed or distorted, their muscles withered or
contracted by disease have been cured
through the use of this remedy. Price
25c, 50 and $1.00 per bottle. For sale by
the Snipes-Kinersly Drug Co.
We have made arrangements with the
San Francisco Examiner to furnish it in
connection with The Chronicle. Hav
ing a clubbing rate with the Oregonian
and N. Y. Tribune for our republican
patrons, we have made this arrangement
for the accommodation of the democratic
members of The Chronicle family.
Both papers, the Weekly Examiner and
Semi-Weekly Chronicle will be fur
nished for one year for $2.25, cash in ad
vance. For a pain in the side C chest there is
nothing so good as a piece of flannel
dampened with Chamberlain's Pain
Balm and bound on over the seat of pain.
It affords prompt and permanent relief
and if used in time will often prevent a
cold from resulting in pneumonia. This
same treatment is a sure cure for lame
pack. For sale by Blakeley & Hough
ton Druggists.
