The weather moderated somewhat
during the night, and this morning a
slight sprinkling of snow covered the
ground and acted as a sort of a pall over
tho spirits of the skaters. However not
enough of the beautiful fell to spoil this
favorate sport. Observer Pague, whose
weather eye is always peeled, be it warm

aying that when it does start ho fears
t will not know when to stop.
Mrs. Frank Forrester left tor--hr
home in Mitchell today, and expects to
return in the course of two weeks and
remain until her husband's trial. It has
been a pathetic sight each day to wit
ness the wife and little boy standing at
the prison bars conversing with the
prisoner, ihis morning she was allowed
to
bid him good bye, the doors being
unbarred. If only tha guilty had to
(bear the consequences of crimes com-
mitted it would seem but justice; but
the innocent are of necessity compelled
to suffer alike with the criminal.
Colonel R. AV. Mitchell's life has been
saved again. This time it was a collar
button that saved it, and this is how it
happened: Colonel Mitchell was a pas
senger on the eastbound passenger train
that had a rear-end collision on the line
of the O. R. & N. Co., about eight miles
east of Pendleton, Sunday morning.
Mitchell was in a washroom justbe
fore the collision took plaoe, and the
loss of his collar-button was the occasion
of his leaving the washroom. When
the crash came the washroom got the
worst of it. Mitchell was safe in the
in -dale of the cur, thanking his stars

some of the physicians give it as their
opinion that it is diphtheria. It resem
bles that malady, being accompanied by
tore throat, and, in one case, death has
resulted. Perhaps it is tonsiletis in
the same form that has visited this city,
which the physicians in Portland as well
The Dalles, pronounce, as an unusual
type of the disease, and not to be gene

check with them ; but yesterday morn

number was wrong and that Mr. Alla

Later in the day, being under the in
fluence of liquor, he missed the evening
train, which he evidently expected to
take and etcape; and in the evening
again showed up at Fouts' saloon, where
be was questioned in regard to the check.

Allaway's hands, the bartender, becom

wrong they at once sent for Marshal
