Caynses In the South.
Messrs. Jacobs and Allen, two Crook
county horsemen, recently shipped a
few carloads of horBes to South Carolina.
Owing to a dispute about freight money
the railroad company sold the horses for
the bill, while the owners brought suit
against them for damages. The sheriff
sold the horses, but the men in charge
of them refused to deliver them, and
then the seance commenced. The Ore
gon cayuses were on their mettle and
disposed to show the people of the
south what they were capable of. . The

Most people - are familiar with thei
amusing incidents of "old hoss sales,"
as they are called. Greenville has just
had a novel experience in a"young hoss"
sale. Sheriff Gilreath sold on last
Thursday at auction 176 wild horses,
from an Oregon stock farm, which had
been attached for freight by a railroad
company. The ranchmen in charge of
the droves refused to deliver the goods.
The sheriff undertook to deliver them
himself. . The News reporter says:
"The horses plunged, reared, kicked,
fell down and got np, tangled them
selves in all kinds of queer ways, and
jerked the arms of the people who en
deavored to bold them almost out of
their sockets. By hard work, lasting
the whole afternoon, 13 were 'cutout,'
haltered and delivered. Most, of them
disappeared on various roads leading
out of the city with a whoop and a cloud
of dust, and with from two to six
citizens trailing along behind them at
high rates of speed. It was the most
fun there has been here in yearp."

She Did It With Her Hatchet.
Saturday evening, Caroline, the stal
wart princess of the Wasco tribe, was
arrested on a charge of assault and bat
tery committed upon another squaw, at
the palatial residence of the latter, on
Mill creek. She was tried this morning
before Recorder Dufur, and found guilty.
It was the old, old case with a woman
in it. It might be eaid that there were
"two women in it," but one of them the
evidence showed was not "in it," but
that one.was not Caroline: The deed
was not caused by the jealous promptings
of a love denied, but sustained and up
borne by a pint of the pale faces whisky
tucked safely beneath her corset, she
felt it her bounden duty to reduce the
number of the tribe, so she took an ax
belonging to her quondam friend and
struck her over . the right eye with the
edge thereof. The wound was not ser
ious, but the court after duly consider
ing the circumstances of the case, sen
tenced her to pay a fine of $50, in default
of which Caroline will board at the
county's expense for 25 days.
True to Name.
The "Jolly Chums" gave a very
creditable performance here Saturday
night, to a good house. ' Some of the
songs were good, and "catchy," but the
third act was rather rocky. The local
gage were clever though Jim Crate may
not think so. At Portland the troop
were to show last night at theOrpheum,
but as "A Turkish Bath" had the
theater for that night, the manager put
on both plays, the "Turkish Bath" com
ing first. When the curtain raised on
the "Jolly Chums" those jolly indi
viduals were found to be true to name,
and both were jolly drunk. In conse
quence the curtain was rung down in
the second act, and the "Jolly Chums"
went on to Olympia where they will
play tonight.
