Captain Tgnace, commonly called Eneas or Innlus, dead chief of the Yaklm.is, and his wife Christina, who were killed hy a railroad train at Parker, were burled with great hon or by their people, and according to tlie rites of the Catholic church, at Port Slmcoe Sunday, says the Takl- ma Republic. The attendance of Indians was bo large that the church could not con tain all who wished to show their es teem for the aged couple. Many white people from the fort also at tended, not as spectators, but as par ticipants In the last tribute to two people who have been held In high regard In their community for a great many years. The services was divided Into two parts, one In the morning and the other In the after noon and the full honors of the church, as contained In Its burial service, were accorded the deceased. Father Yrebosch was celebrant and go to work while the heat lasts. As to the amount of the force to be employed In this valley, I cannot say at the present time." Melon Crop Is Short. Because of the late and backward prlng, the melon crop of The Dalles and vicinity this year will not be "up to the standard as to quantity, though the quality is excellent. Wa termelons, a sample of which was brought In by C. L. Hazen of Dry Hollow, Monday, are said to yield not to exceed a half crop. Cantaloupes are yielding better, though they are not so prolific as last year, says a re port from The Dalles. Both products are from two to three weeks later than common. Or dinarily watermelons begin to appear In the iocai markets about August J, this year August 10 marked the first showing of the local product. Cantaloupes, which generally ripen from one to three weeks before wa termelons, are also late, and did not appear until about August 1 this year. I Now Breed of Chickens, What Burbank has done In the way of propogatlng plant life a Baker City lady may accomplish among fowls, if recent developments count for anything, says the Baker City Herald. Mrs. J. . Koehler of this city has a breed of chickens called the Barred Plymouth, but they seem to be a little extra. She has a number of hens and they have nearly all been laying double yelked eggs this season. Saturday Mrs. Koehler exhibited an egg to a representative of the Herald an egg laid by one of these hens and the egg weighed five ounces and measured nine Inches one way and five the other. Young Lack "Played Safe." After investigation It Is found that Arthur Lack, who Is detained In a Salt Lake prison on the charge of Impersonating Percy Olmsted of this city, has turned another smooth trick which will probably make him Im mune from successful prosecution, says a Baker City item. While on the way to Utah it Is charged that he represented himself to be Percy G. Olmsted, U. S. A. As a matter of fact people supposed that meant Per cy X. Olmsted of the navy, but Lack' did not say so, and thereby he may save himself from a lot of trouble over the matter. Resume Work on North Coast. President Robert E. Strahon of the North Coast railroad, arrived here early this morning, and after registering at the Takima and ob taining a few hours of needed rest, was on the street today busy with his several interests In this locality, says the Takima Republic "We expect to resume construction In this neighborhood Just as soon as the co..l weather begins." said he to day. "There would be no use in try ing to do anything before that be- Decr Are Plentiful. Good, deer hunting In the Cascade mountains of this part of the state will be later this year than usual, for the reason that the animals are slow er In coming down the mountain this season than is generally the case, says an item from Albany. The deer are as plenlful as usual. It Is believed, and when they come down the moun-' tains and reach accessible hunting grounds the hunting will be as good as usual. Real Gold Brick. Today P. J. Powers, manager of the Tom Paine mine, brought in a gold brick that weighed out $640, which he deposited in the First Na tional bank. The brick represents 80 hours' run of the Carpenter mill on ore from the dump at the Tom Paine, the main ore bodies in the tunnels not having been touched.

FAMOUS MINE RID IX BY ITS CREDITORS. Mine With a Rl-try Sold at Sheriff's Sale for $20,000 Bills tor Hard, ware and Machinery Accumulated Against the ProiMTty Once a Gold Producer, But Now Idle. Another chapter in the checkered romance of the Golconda mine has just been closed unceremoniously by Fheriff Rand of Baker county. That famous mine, whose history is filled with dazzling ups and downs, has Just been sold at sheriff's sale for 120,000. A Raker City dispatch says of the mine and Its history: The old Golconda mine In this coun ty has Just been sold at sheriff's sale for claims amounting to ?20.f'0ft, which claims were held by hardware firms and supply houses. The property was at onp time a great producer and the Golconda' richness was one of the strong props that held up the Sumpter boom for a long time. It was formerly managed by James A. Howard, now a member of the Oregon-Idaho Investment com pany, of this city. In recent years Editor C. S. Jackson of Portland, be. came interested in the Golconda, and U Is understood that he still retains much of the stock. Like most stock-selling proposition this mine has had Its ups and downs, and now closes Its first epoch,by sell ing under the hammer and being bid In by creditors through their attor ney, James Chinook of this city. O. D. Glover hag been caretaker of the mine for some time. It Is under, stood here that the property is filled with water, that is, the mine proper, and the expensive machinery placed on the ground- In prosperous days has been permitted to corrode to a great extent. It has a water power right and some electrical machinery. Nothing Is given out as to what the Walla Wnllii Man Suffering From Strange Accident. Bitten by a spider, hied by a leech and dosed Ijy a doctor. Moses Mas kelyne lies in a serious condition at his home. 210 North Fourth street, While his wound is not a3 serious as was feare.i last night, it is still very painful and may prove more trouble some thnn it now looks, says th Walla Walla Statesman. Mr. Maskelyne was sleeping In a tent on his lawn and early yesterday mornlnif an unfriendly spider crawled over his face, biting him on the left side of the upper lip. The bite was not painful at first but soon proved to be. The lip swelled to an enormous size and It soon became apparent that something would have to be done to relieve the situation. So they sent for a leech. The leech was applied yesterday evening and Im mediately began to such blood with a vengeance. In fact he sucked so vig orously that when he was pulled off the blood soon began to flow so rap Idly that It could not be checked. After trying In vain to stop the blood Maskelyne went down tflwn and Officer Allen took him to Dr. Stew art's office, where the flow was stop ped and the Injury properly dressed. According to the physician the wound Is a serious one but will probably, with proper care, heal with no mors difficulty. . Water Meters for Weston. All the water meters for the city have arrived and workmen are engag ed in putting them In, says an Item from Weston. When the work Is completed the entire water system will then be on the meter basis, which Is Intended to give greater satisfac tion to the consumer besides a sav ing of the water from useless wastetf which heretofore have been too com mon. , Kennedy's Laxative Couirh Ryrup Is especially recommended for children. It tastes nearly as good as maple su gar. Sold by Tallman A Co. Two full-blooded Italian queen queen bees, each accompanied by an escort of a couple of dozen males, ar rived In Walla Walla Saturday, ap parently In good health and spirits after their 5000 mile journey, says the Walla Walla Statesman. The bees came, by registered mall, to Ambrose Rypeznskl the well known bee fan cler, who runs an apiary on the Coyle ranch near the city. During their long journey the bees were fed from a supply of sugared honey placed In one end of the tiny cake in which they were mailed. But one bee of each set died on the trip, and according to Mr. Rypeznskl, it is probable tha these fatalities were due to Jealousy, rather than to had conditions surrounding the Journey. The Italian bees, which are said to be better producers of honey than the American bee, are of a bright color and extremely pretty. FOR 22 YEARS Excellent Health Advice. Mrs. M. M. Davidson, of No. 379 Gifford Ave., San Jose, Cal., says: "The worth of Electric Bitters as a general family remedy, for headache, billiousness and torpor of the liver and bowels Is so pronounced that I am prompted to say a word In Its fa vor, for the benefit of those seeking relief from such afflictions.
