SUICIDE OF AN Ol.U MAN Frank Reid committed suicide yesterday at the Quimby house, by shooting himself through the heart with a ;5S calibre revolver. He came to the hotel on the 19th of this month, presumably from Fargo, Dakota, and registered. He was shown to room No. 10(, which he kept up to yesterday, when he paid his bill and went to his room. From 10 o'clock in the morning till 4 o'clock in the aiternoon the chambermaid, wishing to dust the room, tried the door repeatedly. Finally, thinking something was wrong, she looked over the transom and beheld the body of a gray bearded man lying on the bed. The coroner was called, and found the revolver still clasped in the old man's hand. In his pocket was found but o5 cents. On the table beside him lay a note which read as follows : "Nov. 2!), 1889. "Tin's is to certify that I have neither relatives nor friends that care for me, or me for them. Cause for this act, my business. Signed, Frank Reid. 1. yl course tins name is fictitious. STEAK Eli OF THE HOl'SE. Keeil Capture the Caucus Vote and Will Be Speaker. Washington, Nov. 30. At neon the republican caucus was called to order by Henderson, of Illinois, chairman. The roll call denoted the presence of lllli members, four less than the republican strength in the house. The first business was the adoption of the resolution that the balloting for speakership be open. On the lirst ballot Reed received 7S; McKiulev, 35; Can non, Rurrows, 10, and Hen derson, lti. On the second ballot Reed received 80 votes, thus re ceiving the nomination. The sec ond ballot was Reed, S(; McKin ley, :!(; Cannon, lit; Rurrows, 15; Henderson; !). The session was declared to have a reess for caucus nominations. Voting on a motion to make a re cess until evening, the caucus im mediately proceeded to Belect a nominee for clerk and the follow ing candidates were presented in short speeches. Tne result of the first ballot was the election of Mc pherson, of Pennsylvania, who re ceived IK! to 50 for Carson, of Pennsylvania. 11. J. Iloluiej, ex-representative from Iowa, and F. II. Reed, of Minnesota, were then nominated for K'igeant-at-arms. Holmes was elected. The sitrrngth of 1'acillc Fir. Not very many tests have been made and reported by engineers or, architects on the comparative strength of the yellow tir of the Pacific Coast. Rut from those made, it is evident that where fir is used to displace eastern pine or used in situations requiring equal strength, the sizes or numbers of fir timber can safely be reduced ne-third from the safe estimates on Eastern pine. This is a ques tion of much importance to those who buy large timbers for trusses, bridge and buildings, especially for the trade farthest away where the question of Ircight is the most important one. Although this reduction in sizes of timber would decease the consumption for any one structure, it would certainly permit shipping to mere remote markets and thus increase the de mand. When it is once thoroughly known that an 8x12 of fir will stand more than a 12x12 of Wis consin pine, architects and en gincers will not be alow in select mg the timber which by its stiength can be made lighter and hence more to be desired, not only from an architectural standpoint, but also an economical one.- The tests lately made in the engineer ing department ef the Northern Pacific Railway, proved that under equal conditiou9 yellow fir possess ed twice the btrengtit of Eastern pioe. Trautwioe's tests on fir, under the name of "Oregcu Pice,', practically substantiate the North ern Pacific Engineers.

MAKVKLH OF MODERN 8CIKXCE I'UoleJSraphiag a Flying liallet Electricity. Scribner. Photographs of he interior of the gan are even taken by means of the electric light, and the informa tion obtained by these means is most valuable and is manifestly more gaisfactery than that g:ven by the method of taking iinpres- sior.8 of the bore in soft rubber. Photography has also been made Ui.e of in studying the motion of the projectile. In the case of large guns, instantaneous views of the shot during its flight have been successfully taken by means of a camera provided with a quick act log shutter. Ihis method is not applicable, however, to small arms. A rifle bullet is a small object, and the camera must be set near its path in order to obtain a picture ef sufficient size to be of use; but the neater the instrument is placed to the moving object to be photo graphed, the mere rapid is the motion of the image over the plate, and no "instantaneous" or quick acting shutter could possibly be made to operate ith sufficient rapidity, or at the proper instant, to give a sharply defined picture. The desired end is accomplished, howover, by the aid of electricity. The camera is provided with an extremely sensitive plate and placed iu a dark room, through which the buliet is made to pass. The instant the bullet is in front of the camera it breaks an electric circuit, producing a spark which illuminates thr bullet tor an in stant, and its image is impressed upon the sensitive plate. The duration of the electric spark is almost infinitesimal, aud eince the plate is atiected only during the continuance of the spark, a well defined photograph of an object moving at a greater velocity tiiau that of sound is obtained. Such pictures show the condensation of the air iu front of the bullet, the vacuum left behind it and the eddies and currents produced in the surrounding atmosphere by its motion ; and they nflord informa tion which is of value in determin ing the best shape to be. given to the projectile in order to reduce to a minimum the resistance whicl the air opposes to its fiight, and so .l'crease its range and effect. FEOri.E AM) FACTS. William Sprague, war governor of Rhode Island, tmd alterwurd United States senator, is now living in poverty. He was once worth $10,000,000. Mine, Patti is said to be the only person in the world who can diaw a full house to Albert hall. Sho receives $3,500 a night, and the average receipts are $8,500. King Kalakua, of the Sandwich islands, proposes to visit Washing ton, D. C, this season, aud a house at tlm capital is being prepared tor him iu luxurious sty Ic. It is sur mised that Kalakua is desirions of conferring with Secretary Riaine regarding the future of Hawaii. General Grant was no admirer of statues of public men as he hud seen them in the United States. He ence said that when he thought of death, among the dread pictures conjured up was that of himself in b'on.e mounted upon one of those sorry steeds of which there are too many in the Washington parks. The Rev. John W. Sanborn, who was adopted by the Seneca nation and made a chief in that tribe, is of the opinion that the problem of educating aud improving the In dian can be solved most successful ly by elevating the Indian women, whom he believes to be capable of education and refinement. Australian Federation. Sydney, November 2C In his speech at the opening ofParlii ruent, the Governor, refering to the subject of colonial federation, said that while it was expected that there would be a difference of opinion regarding modes of pro cedure, all the colonies bad shown the friendliest disposition, and there was every likelihood that the cordial discussion now being car ried on would lead to a patriotic. agreement on the question.

A rumor has been pcrsif teutly circulated dur ing the last wecK that .lay Gould is trying to buy control of the Atchison stock. A decline ia the stock is said to have hcea engineered for that pur pose in the face, of the announcement of the success of the reorganization plan. A It has even been hinted that Gould is behind this movement, and is pick ing up stock in both New York and Boston. Yesterday special dispatch was received in Wall street which read as follows: "The manipulation of Msssoure Pacific, Atchison and St, Louis and San Francisco is attracting attention, and is generally credited to Gould, whose ho. dings of Atchison have been estimated as high as 200, 000 shares. Although no stook ap pears in his name, a large amount has been transferred to Grant fi Co. of New York." Jay Gould hae always been credited with a desire to obtain control of the Atchison and St. Louis and San Francisco roads. There is a great deal of gossip about the Friseo company iu Wad street.

IT WIM ASSEMBLE MOKDAT. oblia Buildings, Indians War Claims Lauds and Lighthouses -0tb-r Ooast lLtrStF. Washington, Nov. :0. As the time for the meeting tof Congress is near at hand , those interested are get ting into shape the measures of legis lation which will be brought forward for consideration. A good deal has already been said and written, princi pally by the Senators and representa tives who have been in the city, about matters of general legislation, and it may now be opportune to give some account of the work of special interest to the Pacific coast that will be pre sented to Congress for its action. It is generally understood here that Congress will be strongly urged to make the necessary provision for put ting the important sea coast cities in a condition of defense against foreign attack or invasion. '1 he proper defense of San Francisco will involve a larger expenditure than will be required At any other port. The total expense will bo $27,868,150. Portland, Or., must be defended by works of defense at the mouth of the Columbia river and above. The cost of putting this place in a condition of defence will be $2,919,000. In the way of public buildings sev eral local cities will urge claims for consideration. A measure of considerable impor auce which Congress will be asked to pass ujon favorably, is that authoriz ing Secretary of War to aseertain the amount of money which has been ex pended and the obligations assumed by the State, .Towing out of Indian hostilities, and not heretofore reim bursed by the United States. This information, when obtained by th Secretary of war, is to be submitted to Congress for its action. Of a similar import is a measure authorizing the War Department to ascertain what amount of money has been expended by the States of Cali fornia,Oregon and Nevada for military purposes in aid of the. Government of the United State9 during the war of the Rebellion. During the war, as is known, the Government called upon these States to assist iu guarding the overland mail and emigrant routes, aud to aid the United States in var ious other ways. It is unnecessary to say that these requests were met with a ready compliance. Large expendi tures resultod, and the object now in view is to have proper examinations made so that the accounts with the Government can be properly and ac curately stated. The measure docs not commit t'te Government to the payment of the claim, that being a matter for subsequent legislation. The effort will he made to place California on a similar footing with other public-land States so far as the grant of 5 per cent of the net proceeds of the cash sales of the public lands is coucerned. Farther up the coast the people of Oregon and Washington will have mauy matters to lay before Congress. The Lighthouse Board supports the proposition to establish a first-order coast light in Gray's harbor, Wash ington. Congress authorized the con struction of a harbor light at this place, but it is considered that the demands of commerce need atirst-class light. Harbor ' improvements at Yaqniua, the mouth of the Columbia, Siuslaw and Coos Bays, iu Oregon will also come in for liberal appropriations. The Oregon representatives will it is though make recommendations with out delay for the appointment of the principal federal oliicers in the state. Improve. ncnt of the mad facilities in Oregon wilt aiso be looked after. Congress wiil assemble mi Monday, and the members are all here. The session promises to be lie of special interest- to the country. President Harrison's first message is ready to be presented to Congress, and the docu ment will be looked for with much interest. Civil Service and Fostofflce Work. Touching the civil service, Wanna maker's report runs thus: "The postal department has an individual ity of its own. An ordinarily good clerk of the government might suit perfectly well in aoy other of the evil places, but for postoflice work ho mut almost learn a trade. There ought to be a kind of apprenticeship, with promotion. With 150,000 em ployes, rightly selected, who feel a proper pride in representing the gov ernment, and are alive every day to improvement, the postal service would oon become the best in the world." Sale of Snort Horns. J. B. Porter, of Clay county, Kansas, has at the farm of Hamil ton Bros, near Oakville, Linn county, Oregon, a fine lot of Short Horn cattle lrorn nis Willow irove herd, which he will offer at public auction on Wednesday, December 11, 1889, at the hour ot 10 o'clock a. m. The sale will include the Short Horn cow that took the grand sweepstakes and pitcher for two successive years at the Clay county fair, and a bull from a Renick Rose of Miaron cow that sold for $500 at the sale of J.
