A Brutal Attack.
certain, one ascribing it to one thing
and one to another. That generally ac
cepted is an overdose of whisky and the
brutal instinct of the attacking party.
Brooks was beaten into insensability,
and at first it was thought be would die,
but all danger in that line Is past. When
Nightwatcbman Wiley and Sheriff
Driver reached tbe scene cf the row, be
ing hastily summoned, they made vigor
ous search, but found nothing but an old
brown hat. , Inquiring at Mrs. Alexan
der's bouse, the officers found they had
heard the noise of the conflict, and look
ing through the window they had seen
two men, whom they thought to be
Hawthorne and Heater, dragging the
body of a man Into the schoolhouse yard.
The officers at once arrested Hawthorne
and Heater, and this morning they were
taken before Justice Filloon, and each
pleaded guilty. The justice postponed
sentence waiting until Mr. Brooks could
be able to appear in court. According to
McNiel's Btory he and Brooks were going
on the hill to see a mau named Johnson.
Hawthorne and Heater were lying in
wait tor some one, and mistook Brooks
and McNiel for. the parties, so that there
was no cause at all for tbe row. These
outbreaks have grown decidedly monoto
nous, and the full limit of the law as re
gards punishment might act as a deterrent.
A Good City to Leave.
Mrs. E. M. Wilson received a few
days since, a letter from her sister, Mrs.
Grover, who is living at Lausanne, Swit
zerland, giving an account of the condi
tion of Constantinople. Stopping with
Mrs. Grover is Mrs. Marshal, an Eng
lish lady, one of the refugees from Con
stantinople. In speaking of conditions
there, the lady says, "They are simply
inaescriDaDie. ine sultan lives sur
rounded by five or six thousand fanatics,
and no one can approach him. The
Turks would gladly accept any kind of a
government if tbe Sultan could be de
posed and some semblance of law and or
der restored." Lausanne is filled with
refugees, as nearly everyone who could
get out of Constantinople baa left it.
A Weatner Item.
Saturday night Hawthorne and Frank
Heater attacked a man named Brooks,

A comparison between the rainfall for

IT WAS LADIES' DAY.
Dellehtrnl Evening: wltb tbe Ladies'
MoKlnley Clab.
Owing to a long and expensive cam
paign, followed eo closely by the ceie-
cration of the completion of the work at
Cascades, that gave us an open river,
and more than all the unpropitious
weather, the male members of the Re
publican party felt that a ratification of
the election of McKinley should be dis
pensed with. Thev were satisfied with
tbe grand victory, and willing to accept
it with all its grand possibilities quietly
and thankfully.
Not so with the ladies, their enthusi
asm would not down without some kind
a demonstration that would let the
surplus energy escape. Tbe Ladies Me-
Kinley clab took the matter a p, and de
cided to give a banquet. It was a suc
cess from the moment they thought of
it, the only' obstacle being to get a hall
large enough to hold all those whom
they desired to invite. While this was
m possible, the immense dining room at
the Umatilla was tendered bv Sinnott &
Fish, and quickly and thankfully ac
cepted. While regretting its inability
to invite everybody, the clnb went dili
gently to work to provide for the 300
whom it was possible to seat."" :
The Dalles band, which always does
the right thing at the right time, volun
teered its services, 3 hasty program was
made, a dozen toasts framed and as
many persons selected to respond to
them. All this was done Thursday. Fri
day invitations were issued and Satur
day night at 8 :45 nearly 300 ladies and
gentlemen assembled at Fraternity hall,
the proud guests of the Ladies McKinley
club. At 9:15 all proceeded to the -banquet
hall, where the long tables loaded
with good things and ornamented with
great masses of chrysanthemums, were
soon surrounded, and tbe first business
of the evening, the sampling of the eat
ables, was attended to.
After a half hour devoted to this ob
ect, Mr. F. W. Wilson, as toast-master,
in brief but eloquent language spoke
of the time-honored custom of celebrat
ing Victories, whether thoee of Peace or
War, of the magnitude and effect of the
recent political battle and tbe certain
fruits of that great Republican victory,
and concluded by calling upon the presi
dent of tbe Ladies McKinley club.
Mrs. M. E. Briggs responded by an
address of welcome that made all feel
glad to realize that they were present.
Then followed the toast, "Looking
Forward," responded to by our honored
county judge, Robert Mays. In many
respects, Mr. Mays' response' was tbe
most interesting of the evening, for as
he 'said, "It is well before looking for
ward, to take a glance backward, that
we may judge of what is to be by
what has been." He then spoke of the
growth of Wasco county and The Dalles
since he came here 44 .years ago, of the
wonderful changes that comparatively
brief time had wrought, and then al
luded to what the coming years had in
store for ns.
Tha response to "Our President Elect"
was made by Hon. A. A. Jayne. The
thread which ran through all his speech,
was the true Americanism of both the
president elect, and tbe circumstances
of his lite and election. It was the his
tory of many another great American
who lifted himself by the sheer force of
character from the lowliest walks in life,
to the highest position attainable by hu
manity; starting on the farm, and
crowning his' life work as the free choice
Of 70,000,000 people as their chief repre
sentative.
"The Flag"' was responded to by
Lieut.-Col. J. M. Patterson, who in the
course of his remarks, gave a history of
the making and adoption of the flag,
that was very interesting.
At this point the program was broken
into. The' toaet-master stated that
State Senator Fuller' tf Massachusetts
was present, and about to leave on the
train for home, and called upon him for
a contribntion to the good cause. Mr.
Fuller responded in a 5-minute speech
that was heartily applauded.
."Viewed From a Tree Top," was re
plied to by Mrs. J. T. Peters, ipho ex
plained just how ah election with its
bands and its speakers, its uniformed
clubs and torch light processions, march
ing through mod and rain, and all the
other seemingly crazy antics begotten of
elections and. indulged in by generally
staid and sober citicens, appeared to one
who being born on the wrong side ot the
house, was not allowed to vote.
Mr. G. W. Phelps told his feelings in
connection with casting "Jlv first
Vote," in a 5-minute speech, that was
brimming with Americanism, and that
was a surprise to even those who knew
his talents best.
M. T. Nolan created whole lots of
amusement in his telling about his
first political Speech, and it is quite cer
tain that if tbe speech was as thor
oughly appreciated as his description of
it, it was a good one.
"Woman's Share in the Future" fur
nished Mrs. VV. S. Myers a text that
produced a thoughtful discourse that
was thoroughly appreciated.
Hon. "W. H. Wilson made a fitting re
sponse to the selection from Bryant's
famous poem, "Where Rolls the Ore-
Coutinued on fourth page.
