Captain Henry Coej in this week's Hood River Glacier, gives an interesting bit of the history of the war with the Indians along the Columbia. It is .ex cellently written and deserves to pre served among the historical records of the pioneer society. ' The city recorder had one prisoner be fore him this morning, the charge being drunk and disorderly. Said prisoner was an inaian ; - a nne looxing lenow togged out in a new blanket and good clothes. He looked sorry, and the .re corder let him off with three days in the jail. ' Fremont Wade of Clem met with a terrible accident Tuesday, in which he almost lost his life. He was on his way to Arlington with a load of wheat when he either fell or was thrown from his wagon rendering him unconscious. His team ' came on, and it was- some time before George Welshhons came " along and found the poor fellow; still unconscious, and brought him to town; also his team. It is not yet known how badly he is hurt. Xesterday evening two boys, Connie Arvold-and Frank Henderson, arrived here, being sent -.' by the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society to Judge Blakeley, Connie has a borne with Mr. and . Mrs Thorbnrn of Wapinitia, and Frank with Mr. and Mrs. Freeman on 8-Mile. The boys are bright, intelligent looking little fellows and seemed pleased with the idea of getting permanent homes.

The last boat to arrive in Dawson City, August 17th last, had only hard ware and liquors on board, having been nable to get over the flats of the Yukon ith her entire cargo. It is easy to an- erstand why the liquors should have een given quick dispatch, instead of our or bacon; -, but why hardware? The lot of the frozen miner is hard enough anyway. No soft dtinks could be made from the kind of liquor he got, and to add hardware to his lot, except for fuel, seems, at this ' distance, inBult piled upon injury. Oregonian Commencing Monday, the 15th, Dalles, Portland & Astoria Navigation Co. will put another boat on the run be tween this point and Portland, having made arrangements to run the Maria in addition to tneir resnlajr boats.J Ihe Maria will leave Portland .Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at' 5 :30 a. m., and The Dalles Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 6 a. m. Mr. G. D. Snow den has accepted the position of purser, which is the best selection the company could have made. Captain J. Michell Martineau will have charge of the wheel. The steamer Homer arrived at Seattle yesterday afternoon from Juneau. Among her passengers were C. C. Burns, who left Dawson City September 23d. Burns poled up the Yukon and came out over the Chilcoot trail. He stated that when be left Dawson no one bad started down the Yukon for provisions. The people were daily expecting boats from St. Michaels. They thought that the boats were delayed by accident, and knew nothing of their inability to ascend the river. Burns said there would Jae no starvation at Dawson this winter, though rations would be limited. V Electric Itinera. Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more gener ally needed when the languid, exhausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and and alterative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and rhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medi- ine will act more snreiy counteracting nd freeing the system from : be malar ial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con stipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bit ters.' 50c and $1.00 per bottle at Blake ley & Houghton's drug store. . 1 Last evening Mr. Frank Button, who a member of the trrand iurv. went to the county jail for the purpose of seeing a friend of Jtiis from Hood River, whom he had assisted in indicting for assault and batterv. "Of course when he entered the jail" corridor the door was locked behind him. and Deoatv Sheriff Kelley being busy, soon forgot all about nun. Supper time coming on, Kelley walked off, taking the keys witli him, and when Button wanted out there were none to Leed his cries. Frank waited as pa tiently as possible, but discovered that an hour in jail when he wanted to get out was quite a different thing from the hour he had passed in conversation when he knew, or thought that he knew, he could get out when he desired Jailor Fitzgerald came around in an hour, but Kelley had the keys, so he could do nothing for him. Then the inmates of the jail caught On to the fact that they had a sucker, and proceeded to organize a kangaroo court and . try Button as a criminal kangaroo. He was fined what tobacco he had, and undoubtedly would have been compelled to disgorge a 'dol lar or two, but as the boys knew he was from Hood River, they didn't suspect him of having it. He was let out during the night, and this morning insisted on the grand jury visiting the jail in a body to see ho-; un comfortable it was.

Judge Bellinger made a final order Nov. 6th in favor of the defendants in the' case of the United States against The Dalles Military Wagon Road Com pany ' and fift-five others, involving 150,000 acres of land.. The suit was de cided for the defendants upon demurrer September 7th, and at that time the United States district attorney was al lowed sixty days' time to further move or plead. The case was called up Saturday morn ing by Attorney F. P. Mays and Chester V. Dolpfc, when United States Asssist ant Attorney Scbnabel stated that the government declined to further move or plead. The 'court thereupon made an order dismissing the bill. . Recently a law was passed requiring these suits brought by the United States, which means that the government pays the costs of settling the controversy. As Mr. Murphy is about to retire from the office of United States district at torney, he will leave any further action in the proceeding to be taken by his suc cessor, John Hall. The attorney-general at Washington directs the cases. This order virtually . closes the case and quiets the title to the land in con troversy. - It will no doubt be a source of great relief to all those interested. A Strike In the Pyx Mine. Theodore Durrant was not hanged to day, a petition for a writ of habeas corpus being filed in the United States circuit court yesterday, and this morning the petition was heard and the writ granted. A stay of proceedings was also granted pending the settlement of the habeas corpus matter. - Durrant now has the distinction of being the most sentenced and least . hanged man in the United States, and it is not at all improbable that he will yet get a new trial. Regardless of the fact that the trial would cost a large sum, the sentiment is growing that he should be tried over. There is another sentiment that the urder of : Minnie Williams should he laquired into. JNow tnat lie has gotten stay of proceedings, in spite of the de- sion of the supreme court of the United States he may well hope to save himself from the gallows. ' ' - PERSONA Li MENTION.
