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

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.

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,

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

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.

DURRANT NOT HANGED.
He Gets a Stay of Proceed In ks From the
U. 8. Circuit Court.
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. ' ' -
