borrng woman ridiculed the idea and
told the mother of tbe patient that the

The ease of Miles Summers, which
was set for tbie afternoon before Re
corder Dohertv, has been continued till
Friday morning. Bummers is accused
of committing an assault on John Dai
ry mple at the Floyd ranch. Summers,
while on tbe way bare from Spokane
and while camping on tbe roadside near
tbe Floyd school boose, turned bis
horses into tbe school house grounds.
When Ddlrymple remonstrated with
Summers tbe latter swore tbe grounds
were public property and he would keep
bis horses in tbe enclosure as long as
he damn pleased. On further remon
strance on the part of Dalrymple, Bum
mers assaulted him with an ax. Sum
mers was arrested here by Constable
Jackson, and Recorder Doberty bound
bim to appear for trial in tbe snm of
100.
Mr. George H. Cooper, of British Col
umbia, has invented a new system of
notation which be claims to be superior
in many respects to tbe decimal and
metric system now in general use. It is
a system of eights instead of tens, and is
designated as tbe "octimal system."
Tbe fundamental advantage of the sys
tem is that it eliminates fractions.
Eight may be subdivided to infinity and
you always get unite, never fractions or
pieces of units. Tbe very name ot the
decimal system shows its nature. It
runs to tractions so constantly that tbe
fractions is as math a natural part of
tbe term as tbe Greek "deka" meaning
ten. Mr. Cooper maintains that a sys
tem which eliminates fractions and does
not put any other bard thing in place of
it is worthy of tbe serious attention of
an intelligent world.
Mr. Obae. A. Taylor, whose "King of
the Ooium Ring" scored such a bit in
Tbe Dalles last season, will present his
latest effort entitled "Daughter of the
Diamond King" at tbe Vogt opera house

"The King of tbe Opium Ring," giving
excellent rendition of the author's idea.
"The town of Eaeton," says The Ken
nebec (Me.) Journal, "sends down tb
story of ninety-two potatoes which fill a
barrel and weigh 104 pounds. Jot to
get an idea of their si is, count an ordi
nary barrel of potatoes. Maple Grove
tells of a field of osje and three-fourths
acsna which yielded J26 barrels of pota
toes. Presque lajkt tells of a single po
tato, eleven i a taws long and weighing
tbsswand a hetf poands." We wonder
what these deadens of the efsete East
would saw if they saw ansa real pota
toes. Ninety-two potatoes wetffainc 164
poaetda k only a poned and three quar
ter tea, potato. These would be count
ed "scrata" in this country. We bad at
one time on exhibition in tbe office win
dow of The Chuonicle for months two
potatoes that weighed fourteen pounds,
one 1 and the other Q pounds. And
the remarkable thing about tbem was,
not that tbey were big for Oregon, but
tbat tbey were grown on what some peo
ple would call a "sand bank" on the
edge of the Columbia river.
In view of tbe fact tbat there are wild
and unfounded rumors about "twenty to
thirty" cases of diphtheria in the city,
The Ciinotucut this morning made It
its business to obtain the exact troth in
tbe case, and the following facta, ob
tained from Mayor Farley, Marshal
Cbamplln and tbe local physicians may
be relied on as tbe exact troth. There
have been eleven cases, all told, of diph
theria within the limits of the city. In
five of these oases tbe patients hare re
covered and the quarantine has been
raised. There are now six bouses quar
antined, and no metre, with one patient
in each bouse. There has been no fatal
case within the city limits, One case
outside tbe city limits, near Thompson's
Addition, ended fatally at 1 o'clock yes
terday morning. It as that of Claud
Millikio, a boy of 7 years. He was
buried privately yesterday forenoon.
The city authorities are doiog all in
their power to maintain a strict quaran
tlnd of all infected dwelling, and if tbe
iamates and others had co-operated with
them as tbey should tbe disease need
not have spread as it bas. Tbe authori
ties have determined to punish to tbe
full extent of tbe law all future viola
tions of tbe quarantine ordinance.
Meanwhile there is no real occasion for
alarm. Let tbe people unitedly co-operate
with the authorities in enforcing
strict quarantine and tb diss will be
stamped ont in a very short time.

hie for the watch, as he himself will
testify. As to the charge of drunken
ness, I will say I was confined at home
with a badly crippled shoulder for over
two week, and was unable to work, a
Drs. Doane and Eshelman will testify.
Mr. Liebe did not make this charge
from bis own knowledge, as he never
called upon me nor did we so each
other until I bad baan in the employ of
T. A. Van Nordeo for than two
weeks. Consequently be drew a poo hia
imagination or acted upon hearsay avi
donee. The truth of tb matter is tbat
Mr. Liebe, by his hasty actions, bat
made a vacant place in the mechanical
department of his establishment which
cannot be filled, as all food watchmakers
have employment. Mr. Liebe is now
mad at me because I did not go to him
and open beaded knees beg for re
instatement ; mad at Mr. Van Norden
because he (Van Nor den)' gave me em
ployment, and mad at himself because
of bis hasty actions. And now be seeks
revenge hy trying to place a stigma
upon myself and my innocent little
children, and by trying to injure the
business of T. A. Van Norden, who has
the entire confidence of the people far
and near, and whose business is placed
upon too firm a foundation to be shaken
by Mr. Liebe, or anyone else.
