One of the large rock scows at Marsh

" 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

buy a trainload of thoroughbred Here

of fine stock, but he says he baa made

tends to pursue it more extensively.
Last evening, at the residence of Mr.

were made man and wife. Justice Fil

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

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. '

water into the new section for the tur
bines. The work gave way and a flood of
water rushed in upon the workmen, fill
ing the section. At first it was supposed
that every man was drowned. 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 terrible accident happened at Ore
gon City at noon yesterday, causing the
death of two men and injuring five oth
ers. 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
