his name to be used next Monday as an
independent candidate for mayor, and
that he has adopted this course at the
repeated and urgent solicitation of a
large number of the taxpayers of tbie
city. The announcement is not a sur
prise, as it was well known that Mr.
Farley had been earnestly urged to per
mit bis name to go before the conven
tion, but refused. The only contest will
be over the mayorship. The other
nominees of last night's convention will
run without opposition.
Within the Bpace of about five hours
yesterday afternoon two fires were
started on the second floor of the McKay
building, which is occupied ou the first
floor by the New York restaurant. Both
fires would seem to be the work of an
incendiary. The first fire was discov
ered at 2:110 in the water closet after it
had burned a hole about nine inches in
diameter through the laths of the wall
just above the base board. The plaster
had probably been pulled ofl" to give the
fire a start. Wallace Wilson, the lessee
of the building, supposed at the moment
that the lire had probably started from
the lighted stump of a cigar. The fire
was easily extinguished with two or
three pitchers of water. About five
hours later somebody on tho south side
of the street opposite the building no
ticed a thick volume of smoke issuing
out of a bedroom window on the east
side of the building. A fire alarm was
rung in and the fire was soon extin
guished by the chemical engine, but not
before it bad burned the bedstead and
bedding, ruined the furniture and car
pet and burned a larue hole in tho wall.
Here again the work of the incendiary
was more clearly in evidence, for the
room had not been occupied for some
time and was awaiting a renter. The
loss, all told, amounts to something in
the neighborhood of $100 to $150 and is
fully covered by insurance.

The Shooting; of .lake I'ralil.
John McAlister, of Glenwood, while
in town today gave Tin: CuiiONicu: the
following version of the events leading
up to the ehootiug of Jake Prabl some
six inileB north of Glenwood last Sunday
morning. The shooting can be set down
to a dispute over sheep range. I'rahl
and McGrath, who did the shooting, are
both sheepmen. McGrath has a Hock
of GOO that he has been running on a
range that not long ago sufficed for five
or six ordinary flocks. It is all public
land and Prabl took his sheep to it and
pitched his tent abuut a mile from Mc
Grath'e camp. Next morning Prabl
found that McGratb's sheep had mixed
with bis at early dawn. A separation
was made, and on the morning following
Prahl discovered McGrath deliberately
driving his sheep towards the Prahl band
with the evident intention of mixing
them. Prahl ran between the two bands
to keep them from mixing, when Mc
Grath pointed his shot gun at Prahl and
swore be would fill him full of holes if he
did not desist. Prahl, who is anything
but a coward, drew his levolver and
said he was ready to do some Ehootiug
himself the moment McGrath dared to
fire.
The sheep were kept spparate, and
McGrath and a brother-in-law, who had
arrived at McGratb's camp the previous
night, retired behind a large rock where
they could not be seen by Prabl, and
McGrath deliberately fired at I'rahl, the
shot taking efl'eet in Prahl's hip and fell
ing him to the ground.
Coming to himself after a short time
he fired two shots in the direction of the
smoke of McGratb's gun and then
crawled back to the tent, where he
mounted a horse and rode to Glenwood,
where his wound was dressed by a local
physician named Spnnegal. On arriv
ing at Glenwood Prabl fainted from the
pain of the wound and loss of blood.
Monday morning John MoAlisterhitched
up his hack and took Prahl to Golden
dale, where his wound was probed by
Drs. Bonebrako and Stewart, but with
out being able to extract the bullet.
Prahl left his sheep in the hands of
two men who were, unknown to Mc
Grath, witnesses to tho shooting. Upon
information sent to the sheriff of Yaki
ma county that ollicer ami the sheriff of
Klickitat county started yesterday morn
ing for the scene of the shooting armed
with a warrant for the arrest of Mc
Grath, and probably another for. the
arrest of .McGratb's brother-in-law.

Johnston, who, Mr. Wilson said, had
served the city as councilman well and
faithfully for four years. The nomina

Councilman Harry Liobe, and there be

was declared the nominee for mayor by
acclamation.
The nomination, also by acclamation,

and of C. J. Crandall for

was taken while the citizens of tho dif

Mr. Wagnon, who presented tho Ilerst
proposition for a woolen mill at this
place, 10ft for Portland this morning
after a stay of eleven days. In answer
to inquiries made of President Whealdon
of the commercial club, we leant that
the Ilerst proposition may bo said to ba
abandoned for good. The answers given
to inquiries made of the references given
by Mr. Wagnon were too evasive to be
satisfactory. An effort, however, has
been started, and is receiving gratifying
encouragement, to raise tho sum in $'J5,
000 in tho farm of a subscription to
stock to any woolen mill company that
comes here with a satisfactory proposi
tion. President Whealdon has not a
doubt that a sntllcicnt sum can be raised
with little ell'ort eo as to make the bal
ance certain when the right kind of a
proposition is laid before the people,
