, Indian Chief Burled With romp.
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. Baker
cause we can't get men to come in j City Herald.
Intentions are relative to putting the
mine in working condition again.

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. .

tion to the consumer besides a sav
ing of the water from useless wastetf
which heretofore have been too com

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.
