The Degree of Honor entertainment, which will be held tonight, promises to be a most enjoyable event.' Members and their friends are invited. One of the large rock scows at Marsh field was swamped at the government " works last Tuesday with seventy-five tons of rock on board. A rock was be ing hoisted from the eeow to the wharf, when it slipped in some manner and fell upon the deck of the ecow. , L. C. Rogers of Butter creek, Umatilla county, is on the way to Kansas City to buy a trainload of thoroughbred Here ford cattle. He already has a large herd of fine stock, but he says he baa made money in the business, and that he in tends to pursue it more extensively. Last evening, at the residence of Mr. Hunsaker, Mr. Charles Douglass and Miss Minnie Markham, both of Dufur were made man and wife. Justice Fil loon omciating. lne parents and a number of friends ot the happy couple were (present, and a genuine good time was enjoyed. - ' Wheat seems to come in faster than ever, and the great drawback at present in this place and Portland seems to be lack of storage room. "As ships are not coming into the latter place fast enough to take it away, this seems to have some thing to do also in keeping the ."price down. December wheat rose two cents in Chicago yesterday, but it still stands the same here, seventy-five cents. At 6 -Ao ' o'clock Saturday . evening Charles Dobel, standing in the 'carriage house at his borne on Chestnut street in Walla Walla, placed the' muzzle of a Smith & Wesson revolver to his head and fired a 38-cahbre btll'et through his brain. Beyond a slight indisposition caused by a' cold, he was in good health, . mentally and physically J' and as far as known bis business was in good shape. Therefore his friends can ascribe no cause for the rash act. A few days since the T.-M. reporter spoke of seeing Professor Brown extract six corns from the pedal extremities of Mr. Kelsay, our genial county clerk. The reporter, however, did a great in justice to Professor Brown by not speak ing of how painlessly that gentleman extracted two large bunions and seven M corns offthereportorial feet.yve are sure that it was an oversight on John's part, but nevertheless the king of corn doc tors feels a little indignant about it. Secretary Alger has sent to Lieut. Col. Randall, commander of the United States troops at St, Michaels, an order ; directing him to make use of reindeer in Alaska for transportation of supplies and relief of sufferers. Secretary Alger's idea js to establish a regular line of rein deer communication under military' management. Meanwhile advices have reached the war department from pri- vate sources to the effect that there is more food along the Yukon than is gen-" erally supposed, and that no man need be hungry if he cares to travel for food. Altogether there are about 1200 tons of provisions within thirty miles of Daw son along-the Yukon. We understand that it is the inten tion of the Commercial Club to lower the membership fee from fifteen to ten dollars. This is a very wise move, for at present there are quite 9 number of young men who can scarcely afford to pay fifteen dollars, but at the same time are anxious to join and enjoy the bene fits and pleasures which' the club rooms afford ; and as this would enlarge the membership, it would also enlarge the amount coming in monthly.! ivery respectable young man in the city should join the club, and this will be the most opportune time, as the rooms ae being enlarged, remodeled and put in shape for a much larger number of members. 1 EVIL EFFECTS OF FIRE-WATER. Especially When Sold to Lo, the Hila rious Siwashe. The Kemalns Removed. Last Thursday afternoon Marcus 'hitman's grave, at Whitman mission, even miles west of Walla Walla, was opened, preparatory to the erection of a mausoleum of brick and granite thereon by the Whitman Memorial Association. President Penrose, of Whitman college, a few students and newspaper men only were present, besides the contractors. year the surface of the mound" in one corner, four skulls nearly intact were discovered.also a number of minor bones. rne skuii 01 vr. w nitman was recog nized by the gold filling in one of his teeth and a tomhawk wound at' the base of the skull. Dr. Whitman, his wife and eleven as sociates, massacred fifty, year's ago, are eu'p posed to be buried in the grave. The'bones were'taken to Walla Walla, to be classified by physicians. After" be ing placed in, 4 glass" case for inspection for a few days', they will be returned to their resting place, and a mausoleum of brick and granite erected oyer them. Monday some Yakima Indians, who t present live at Tumwater, on the ashington side, came to this place and ucceeded in purchasing Borne whiskey. hey then started on their return trip. but before reaching home they became thoroughly soaked and seemed bent on taking some scalps. . The first person they met was another Siwashe, and he was left badly beaten and in an uncon scious condition. Another Indian fell into their path and received the same treatment. By this time they reached the Indian village, and the squaws and children were the objects upon which they showered tteir cruelty. One of them tied a rope to the stake of a wiginan in which ware a number of women and children, and then ran his horse around the same at full speed, tearing it down and severely injuring some of the inmates. While he was thus enjoying himself his companion was throwing rocks into a neighboring shanty, and succeeded in striking a squaw a terrible blow on the side of the head, rendering her unconscious. They then turned their attention to ane of the larger houses, in which a wake was being teld over a dead pap- pvuse, auu in a remaisaoiy snore time he inmates were forced to take up the Bead child and go elsewhere to wake it. The two brayes continued their ca- oursing nntil the effects of the Gre ater died out, and then they were as ocile as any other siwashe. Some . white men, who were fishing near the place, were called, and found the two Indians who had been first at tacked, in a critical condition, -their head 8 being beat up terribly with a weapon which might have been a dull hatchet, and if they pull through they will be lucky men. The white men inquired as to where the whiskey had been bought, and ound out that a certain saloon in this ity frequently furnishes Indians with hiskey, and if the proprietor does not ar more from this, he had better con sider mmselt luckier than most men. this case it is a saloon, not some poor obo, that furnished the liquor, and hose are just the people whom the au thorities want.

An alarm was given and the water was drawn from the canal as soon as possible, as it was found that the work of ' removing the broken timbers and recovering the bodies of the drowned men would be fa cilitated by floating the mass of debris. After this was done a count of the men in the gang was made, and it was found that two men, George Stouch and Ja cob Macomb, were missing. These two men were evidently drowned and are no doubt beneath the pile of broken timbers, which a large number of workmen are now engaged in remov ing. Stouch is an unmarried man and Macomb leaves a wife and children. Among the five injured men, the most seriously hurt are Carl Newburg, whose head was severely cut and bruised, and Harvey Little whose left arm was bruised and whose head and face was badly cut. The three men who escaped uninjured were: Jacob Weidick, Alvin Richard son and Jacob Keane. Thomas Smith had bis spine hurt and William W. Smith had one bone of his right leg broken." The accident was owing either to a miscalculation of the weight of the water behind the men or the strength of the bolts and timbers. Upon the giving way of the wall the water rushed into the lower section with terrific force carry ing the timbers and all before it. The men who escaped fought their way through the floating timbars and finally reached a point where they received as sistance.

A gang of men bad been working night and day for a week to remove a bulkhead, expecting to finish the work this afternoon. The bulkhead was sixty feet long, and extended from the power station on the east to the east wall of the boat canal on the west. At the lower end of the new extension of the power-house another bulkhead had been constructed, and it was the intention to take out the old one, in order to let the Food, undigested, is poison. Digested, it is life and strength. Millions of us suffer from indigestion, but we often don t know it. We think it is some thing else. 'Even doctors often mistake the symptoms. Pale, thin people, who are overworked, who need strength, who seem in want of proper food, should take Shaker Digest ive Cordial. It is astonishing what food will do, when properly digested. It will make you strong, revive you, refresh you, sustain you, make you fat, restore your color, make muscle, , brain fibre courage, endurance, energy ; .. in crease your power to throw off. disease and keep you healthy and happy. Indigestion does just the opposite, but indigestion can be cured and prevented with Shaker Digestive Cordial. Sold by druggists. Trial bottle lOcts. Cash lta Your Check.
