in Kio
London, Nov. 10. But little fur
ther information has been received
here concerning the revolution in
Rio De Janeiro. Dispatches re
ceived this morning state that t!;e
minister of marine was not killed,
as reported vesteiday. but serious
ly wounded by the rebels Another
dispatch says the question as to
the nature of the future govern
ment will be submitted to the
plebiscite.
A later dispatch from Kio De
Janeiro reports that the republic
hasAlfieen proclaimed, with Kenhots
Da Fonseca as president. The
imperial minister is arrested and
placed in !closeconGnement. The
provisional government has guar
anteed protection to the members
of the imperial family. The em
peror is at his summer haciendo
at Petropolis, twentv-five miles
westofllioDc Janeiro. AH busi
ness in the city has been supend
ed, btit there is no danger to life or
property.
Londok, Nov. 17. Another dis
patch from Kio de Janeiro states
that a j rovisional government has
been formed, under the following
leaders: Constant, a journalist
named Qumtittobo Coouiva and
Jeneral da Fonoeca. The populace,
the latest dispatch says, are
holding aloof from the revolution
ary movement and believe the
government will be able to suppress
it.

be made, and if the purse is large
enough say $20,0001 will fight him
under the conditions imposed by the

iui:-- :p..:u K;:;ir.t y. iu in -c-.-
of a ci:ri Tiiv v.l;i-.-; a
uable relic of prehistoric times in
this part of the continent. Some
time ago while excavatiag for a
cave, he exhumed a large brown
stone weighing orer twenty pounds.
When the clay was removed from
it a large fossil, representing a
clenched human hand, was reveal
ed. The specimen had been broken
from a mammoth arm just above the
wrist, and the imprint of a coarse
cloth or some woven material was
plainly outlined on the back of the
hand. At the time of the discovery
nothing was said of it, as Mr. Mote
does not belong to the curious class
of people.
For several months the specimen
had lain about the house, and no
one who saw il had any idea of the
great aaiount of wealth held firmly
in the grasp of the stony fingers.
A small boy in the family whose
faculty tor Vui.ishing things is just
beginning to develop, conceived
the idea of opening the hand.
When broken, to his astonishment,
there rolled out eleven brilliant
transparent atones. The discovery
of these beauties was not made
public until yesterday, when Mr.
Mote showed them to a jeweler,
who pronounced them genine first
water diamonds, without a speck
or flaw to mar their beauty.
The jewels are uniform in size
and aie about the shape of Lima
beans. They havd the appearance
of beine water worn but are still
beautiful stones. The possessor of
this beautiful find will dispose of
the diamonds, and will at once be-
zin his search for the other hand
as well as the rest of the body of
this relic of an early ace.
The mvstery of the broken hand
is one of perplexing interest. How
lorn: has it been there? To what
race of giants did its owner belong?
Was the subject an ancient miser,
who died grasping his most
precious possions? Many other
like questions are raised by the
discovery, but to all of them the
modern historian can onlv answer
in remote and uncertain specula'
tion.

and has sent hither Kev. M. T.

has secured a hall in which to hold

A POPULAR ESTABLISHMENT.
Hov Julias Giadwohl'a GoldenJEsle Bazaar
Meets the Public Want.
One of the most extensive and
elegantly stocked establishments
in the Willamette valley is to be
found in the Golden Bule Bazaar
store of Julius Gradwohl in this
city. In order to accommodate his
many customers lie is in the field
early this vear, and has alreadv
commenced receiving his immense
line of beautiful eocds for the fall
and winter and for the holiday
ana lias one ol tne most gorgeous
and dazzling displays to be seen in
any Golden Kule Bazaar in Oregon,
The line carried comprises a be
wildering assortment of fine china,
queensware and glassware of the
latest st vies and most delicate de'
signs. The beautiful china and
glassware, together with the dec
orated and fancy wares, novelties,
elegant stand and hanging lamps,
toys, boys wagons and general
bazaar goods, present a scene well
worth on time to visit.
Here may be found a complete
line of table cutlery of the cele
orated makes, Roger Bros.' silver
and silver plated goods and
Bohemian wares of every variety,
while his stock of dolls, toys, toilet
and fancy goods, in plush and
silver, and novelties for the chil
dren will be larger than ever be
fore. Mr. Gradwohl has enlarged
his stock in such a replete manner
that his Golden liule Bazaar is not
only a credit to the city of Albany
but to the entire Willamette
valley, being one of the most ex
tensive establishments of the kind
in Oregon. The most important
feature to purchasers is in prices,
and when we assert that bis prices
are as low as any house in the state
and that his goods are sold at
figures that cannot be equaled in
the Northwest, it is but the recital
of an absolute fact. It will be to
the interests of the country mer
chants to purchase their holiday
goods from this establishment, and
orders should be sent in at once.
Mr. Gradwohl has long since
proven his adaptability to this
business, and it is taking no riss
to say that thisemporium of elegant
fane v and decoiatiye ware id the
rco complete in the Willamette
lie y. Those who deal at the
Golden Kule Bazaar, will find a

to deal with.

THE POSTAL SERVICE.
Some cf Postmaster Wannamak
er's Practical Ideas.
THIi REDUCTION F TOSTAH.
Eow BePiopotes to Irc:fas the ESSci'iicy
of fa Difaitxebt Over Which
He Piccide:.
Washington, Nov. 16. Post-mas-tor
General Wanamakcr at his recent
interview with the leading postmas
ters here is repoitcd to have said:
"I am not a mugwump in any sense
of the word, gentlemen, but a dyed-in-the-wool
Republican, and I propose
to benefit the postal service by every
means that lifcs in my power. Still
politics will have no effect in deter
mining ray course, bnt I want to ey
to yon, Democrats and Republicans
alike, that there is a necessity for a
radical reform in the .ail way mail
service, it ma:wrs not to ie u a
man can talk all day about cube ana
square root, meorems in geometry
and climatic effects in Africa or Asia,
so long as be doss not troroughly
know tho section of country through
which bis postal car is running. I
would sooner have a postal clerk who
knows every nook and corner in his
district than some theorist who could
tell all about zones and geographical
centers remote from his own country,
and I ahall recommend to Congress
that the civil service examinations be
modified to this extent."
At tho same conference it was pro
posed to reduce' the rate on merchan
dise from the fourth to third clas.
and that hereafter thera should be
only three classes of mail matter.
Borne of the Postmasters thought the
time inopportune for a reduction of
this sort and did not hesilato to say
so to the Postmaster-General. Ac
cording to his proposition there would
be a reduction of 50 per cent, on mer
chandise; that is, from 1 cent an ounce
to 2 cent an ounce. The postal rate
cn merchandise parcels in the United
States of 1 cent an ounce, or 1G cents
a pound, is the heaviest rate levied by
the Post-office Department on ite
customers.
The United States is behind every
country in Europe in this particular
branch o: the postal business. Iu ten
leading countries whose rates were
published in a report made by Sena
Chace a year ago, it was shown that
while the local letter rate averages
three times our rate, and the news
paper rate four and a half times, the
rate on samples, which are under the
same rate as fourth-class or mercha--diso
matter, is only threc-tigh'hs of
our rate. The parcel postage in
Europe is still lower. Postmaster
General Wanatnaker proposes to re
duce the rate on the poor mau's ex
press. CHLBtn SKBVJOS.
