met a couple of strangers who surrouud-

quired the way to some cheap lodging
house. Tlws Portland man wno is up io
all Ue highway man's tricks, buttoned
hisouat around Ids stomach and took
to heels. There was nothing left for The
Dalles man to do but to take to bis
beels too. Hence no tragedy aud 00
robbery. Parenthetically, it may be
proper to remark that a highwayman, j by request, touched the hearts of the
who would expect to get any money out j Celtic portion of her audience by her
of the pockets of men who had leen two
hours at the Catholic fair, is a fool.

The Shaniko Leader says: "Mr. E.
C. Fitzpatrick, of T,ygh Valley has been
appointed stock inspectot for Wasco
county. While the appointment does
not give the satisfaction U the sheepmen
in this section that the appointment of
Mr. H. W. Cook would have done, yet
they are satisfied conditions will be far
better tban before this appointment.
The county judge, writing to a citizen of
Shaniko, in regard to sheep and the
scab in particular, says the court will
see t hat a more rigid enforcement of the
law is practiced than heretofore. This
is something every citizen will endorse
and the county judge will receive every
assistance."
A dispatch from London says that
Portia Knight's breach of promise suit
against the newly married duke of Man
chester is to be tried this week. Portia
ia a Salem, Oregon, girl. Her father is
a prominent Oregon lawyer, long a
partner of Judge Ird. Portia's lawyer,
Sir Edward Clarke, has the duke's love
letters, written during the time she waa
in a convent to escape his attentions.
They show that he traced her with de
tectives and even gained admission to
the convent from which he was prompt
ly expelled -by the mother superior.
Portia's father is there to help his
daughter, and Eugene Zimmerman,
fathm-of the duchess. IS also there to
help bis daughter's husband.
rhere was a larger attendance

and in aosponse to a demand that brooked
no refusal, she touched the hearts of a
still larger auditory by the old but ever
new song of "Annie Laurie." "
Why was the American Hag raised
above the'eourt house today? w as asked
by many citizens. An old-tiitier in
formed all inquirers that it was on ac
count of the Catholic fair. Others said
it was because the D. P. & A. N. Co.,
and White Collar line had entered into
a temporary contract not to cut each
others throats till the holidays are over.
Others said it was on account Of the ad
journment of congress over the holidays.
Still others suggested that it was in
honor of Detective Joe Reiley who wrung
a confession from Addison Kidd at the
nuzzle of a Mbrse pistol. The truth is
the flag was raised by the patriotic Ihiss
of the county jail in honor of the hun
dreth anniversary of the Louisiana pur
chase. The next world's fair, concerning
whch comparatively little has been
heard in this country, will be held in
the city of Cork, Ireland, from May to
November, next year. This "interna
tional exhibition" will occupy a tract of
forty acres that is bisected by the river
Lee, that pleasant water that the bells
of Shandon sound so grand on. This is
to be the most important fair ever held
in Ireland. Among the announcements
in the prospectus is this : "The exhibi
tion baa already met with hearty and
widespread support among all clasaea,
and in the list of oflice-bearers will be
found many of the leading noblemen
and gentlemen of Ireland, as well as the
civic heads of the principal towns of the
country."
