Af lh present writing General SLerian's condition it again verj criticil, and bin death mar occur at anyfime. A few days ago tbere set Vl to be acme chance that the general might pull through and the sol-Lira were congratulating them selrti od memorial day that they werepared one melancholy duty wbicjS two days lwfore had aeemed an inevitable part of decoration day programme. General Sheridan has fared death many times and in manj aha pea during hia adrenturoue career, but probably nerer came in- destroyer as duting hia recent ill- ness. Notwithstanding the forbidding weather, which Incomes a theme of absorbing interest on memorial day, the graves of the soldiers who sleep on the hillshles of Arlington, Con gressional. Soldiers Home and oth er cemeteries around the capitol city were remembered, and the usual annual exercises were carried out. Tie District militia and the (. A. IL united in an unusually attractive parade iu spite of the prospects of a wetting. As usual the exercise consisted in decorating the graves with flowers, in orations, the read ing of poems, music and prayer. At the Soldiers Home ceremonies, while a prayer was being offered for (Jeneral Sheridan, every head was bowed. The orators of the day were Senators Palmer, of Michi gan, Manderson, rf Nebraska, Gen. eral Browne, of Indiana, and Kep rcseittnlive McKiuney, of New Hampshire. A long session of congress is pre dicted. It is the opinion of some prominent member of congress that the tariff bill cannot be brought to a final vote in the house before the middle of July, and then if the senate should conclude to consider it, it would le some time in August before the bill could be ret u rued to the house, and then a conference committee would have to consider it. So from this standpoint it will be September Itefore congress can ajoU.n. Since the Mills t iriff bill readied iUciisis, consideration by eections, on a final vote as it stands, the re publican., huvo caucused many time without being able to frame a sub stitute for the bill tbat would be Bitisfactory to the party. Theiefore I hey decided to proceed by way of obstructing and amending the bill. Two other things the3 decided upon was that they would have the IMair educational bill and all the general pension bills on the calendar brought up for cousideration as soon as possible. The end of the contest for secret executive sessions came on Monday Iast. when Dv a vole ol twenty-two; , . against twenty-two, a strict party vote, the republicans decided that the fisheries treaty should be dis cussed iu open session, with open doors and crowded galleries. The debate on this question bus been Lot through all the half-dozen fas hions behind closed doors which it has occupied, but on Monday it was hotter than ever. Senator Sher man's motive in turning around, after having voted and reported against the open session resolution, was very freely criticised. The .en- ate was plainly told that Mr. Sher man was at the bottom of the whole (pen session movement, and that his candidacy for the presidential nomination was the mainspring of bis action. The recent talk about nomiuating Judge Tbunaan for vice president recalls the fact that every occupant of that place who was more than sixty years old wheu elected has died in office. The list is limited to five, aud all the names are well known to readers of Auiewcitu his lory: Clinton, Uerry, King, Wilson and Hendricks. If elected, Judge Thurman would be eeveuty-Iive years old within a few days of his election, and, hence, as regards the nrobabilitea of his survival, would j naTe fifteen years on the wrong side j of the account. I Senator Sherman was very irate ! over the president's veto of the I Youngstown, hio, public building i. He drew a parallel lietweeu the president's veto power aud that ! of the czar of ltussia, and the sul tan of Turkey, and announced the fact that he would make an effort to pass the bill over his veto. Kiairsiar aad Plaral. The question is as to mumps. Should one say mumps t',nr mumps are whatever one pleases? The American Magazine for June con tains the answers of a dozen or more of eminent men of letters philolo gists, grammarians, professors and authors upon the disputed ques tion. Oliver Wendell Holmes is of the opinion that ''mumps is" i cor rect. Prof. Coldwell of Vassar Col lege coincide. J. O. Holland tbinka "mumps ar," should be spoken and written. George Wm. Curtis declares for the siugular number. Rev. Edward E. Hall of Boston straddles the question, and quotea Pope and Swift at variance. Richard Grant White couldn't distinctly say. Professor Barnard of Columbia col leg expresses his opinion for "is." With him agrees President Porter of Yale college. Professor Higgin son of Cambridge, quoting Webster and Worcester for "are," in hia fellow thought "are re the correct way. Mark Twain quotes Emerson in support of "is." Which is cor rect. The doctors differ. Who shall decide? No one need have mumps to determine. Any who have mumps do not borrow more pain or trouble in the determination. None will question that the thing, the main thing is, to be cured of it or tin-Hi. A mump on one cheek is an atHiction. To turn and receive auottier mump on the other side is implied according to scripture re ferring to the matter of cheeks. And this would not be at all singular. What to fiud out, according to tlie rule of grammar, is, whether a mump are mumps, or mumps i a mump. l)on't let either burst in ig norauce. Then again, should a phy sician charge as much for treating one mump as ho would for treating a case of two mumps, on the same person? The doctors of physic should ngice upon this last proposi tion. J.ct there be bgliL dollars "is" and dollars "aro" involved. Kx. Phrases the (ilrls Must Eschew. The list of words, phrases and ex pressions to bo avoided by young ladies of Wellcsly College includes the following: "I guess so," for I suppose so, or I think so.

It gives numerous items of interest to our people among which is the fact that the U. S. Fi.h Commissioner will send tho first lot of lobsters for Tuget Sound to le planted in Port Townsend bay; that lie is hopeful of lieing able to sccuio reduced transportation rates ovtr the railroads for our fishermen's freights, so that they an get their fish to the markets of the cast with out having the profits all eaten up by freight charges; that Charlee Francis Adams, the great Union Pacific railroad king, will visit Port Townsend this suiiiiuc; that east. rn fishermen are getting up a regular stampede for our waters; nnd many other matters which g to show that tho judge is alive to all our interests. Ho will go to Gloucester, where he will furnish all needed information to fishermen who intend coming here. Argus. Napoleon Hat Is Katillc in Illinois. McLr.vxsisor.o, 111., June 10. The largest ratification meeting ever held in this county was held at tlie court house last night to ratify the nomina tion of Cleveland and Thurman. Hon. Napoleon Puvis, an Oregon delegate to the national convention and who is visiting relatives and friends in this his native county, was waited ujn by the central com mittee and invited to address the meeting. Mr. Davis, on beinjfj trodaced by the chairman of the meeting, made a happy and telling speech that received the applause and cheers of the vast audience. The bird of Lefty Fllfflit. Darwin while watching long the lofty flight of the Lammergsier's American cousin, the condor, in its great circling sweep at enormous altitude above the Chilean plaint, wondered at the bird'e power of thus ailing, hour after hour, io those great, sweeping circles, without any apparent motion of the out-ftpread winga. He arrived at the probably correct solution of the puzzlea puzzle which has bothered a good many other observers iu watching the spiral flight of the eagle and the red-tailed hawk. The extended winga gave not a single flap, but aeemed to form the fulcrum on which. the movement of the rt of tailacted. "If the bird wished Io descend, tho wings were, for n moment collapsed ; and when again expanded, with on altered inclina tion, the momentum gained by tho descent seemed to urge the bird up ward with the even and steady movement of a paper kite." There is something attractive in such a spectacle. The condor is known to soar far nbove tho loftiest peaks of tho Andes, which lift tlteir snowy tops to elevations four miles above the sea; indeed, it is known to rise six miles in vertical height far above all ordinary clouds and there, in that rarefied region, in which human life could not exist, his eagle eye surveys tho world be low in search of his prey, and finds in those silent spaces of the sky his native air. That a company of three or four condors can, and actually have, more than once run down ami killed one of tlio wild cattle of the Pampas, first blinding tho nnimal by destroying his sight, before kill ing him aud dining oil' his carcass, isi fact which is said to have Wen witnessed by those who have related the story. Hartford Times. The Klamath Salmon FUheries Legal and Open to All. Sam Fiuxcisco, June 8. Tho liability of persons trading with Indians of the Klamath reservation has been decided in the I'niled States circuit court in an elaborate -optcm-1 ti led -in a - auit -brought-Uy the government to condemn it lot of merchandise' seized from It. 1). Hume, at the mouth of the Klamath rivf r, last fall. Hume hired Indians to fish for him, paying them for the labor in goods. Claimant contended that no liability was involved in bartering with tho redskins, hh the reservation had been abandoned, und tlie land was not "Indian country" within the meaning of the statute tinder which tlie forfeiture proceedings wero legun. An appeal was taken to the circuit cuit. TIih decixion (.tales that bv an act of 1 Ml four Indian reservations were estab lished in California, The Klamath reservation was not included in any of these, but was set apart Io be dis Msed of under specific acts of con gress, but not under th general laud laws. The judge held that K. I. Hume, owner ci the seized mer chandise, did not violate the law forbidding trading with Indians living iu Indian country. Ho em ployed Indians iu fishing, nnd paid them iu clothing and other useful merchandise, and tho cessation of this trade is not demanded by tho claims of policy, morals or humanity, Tlie Klamath salmon fisheries thus become legalized aud open to all. A Hcxpcrate Prize Flithl for a Yoiuijc l4id) Heart. S.n Fiusrisco, Juno H. Last night two lightweight pugilists of this city fought four of the hardest rounds witnessed since the memor able contest . between nmateura Cbynoaki and Kencaly. The names of the contestants were Haines aud Bowers; the trophy to the win tier being a lady's heart. They were both in love with a j'ouug lady. She loved both of them, but couldn't decide which she loved best, so she determined to let them decide the matter in the pugilistic ring. Three bard rounds were fought, but the fourth round ended the contest. Such slugging had not been seen nt the City Front club for many months. Finally Baines got home a chance blow on Bower's chin, aud the latter's head was the first to strike the hard boards. His seconds rushed to pick him up before the ten seconds expired, but when he came to his senses he looked around for a moment and then threw up his hands and said: "Baines, old boy, you can have her; I am too weak to fight any longer." . Governor Pennoyer has received from the government a check for f ?3,?07.L1, the balance due on the state's claim against the United States for public land tales. (iENEKALKEVTK.

Field, mid it is thought that he was try ing to climb up the ladder from the steamer's deck to the dock when the lad h r fi ll, throwing him into the river, and us no one was about at the time, hu sank to rise no more. The un fortunate man was an Englishman, aged 4S years, und whs well known hy all our river men, Mrs. W. P. Locke, of Huntington, met with a horrible death last Friday evening. Shu was out riding in a dog curt and a dog cumo running out after the vehicle und hit the horse on the heels.
