A dispatch from Cincinnati say s the steamer Island Queen was fired upon Tuesday" evening during her trip up the Ohio river with Wm. H. Taft and the noti fication committee and guests on board. 4. lady standing near Mr. Taft was struck in the face and breast by a number of small shot but not seriously injured. The fact that the gun was loaded with only fine shot renders it un necessary for any one to get ex cited over the occurrence, or im agine that an assassination was attempted. Probably some fool fired the shot for fun. We wouldn't always recognize our own faults if we should stum ble over them, r" ; You can't always tell when a gun is loaded, but it is easy enough to tell when a man is, Keep your eye on the man who has : to make an extra effort to give you a hearty hand-shake.

Baker last week . has returned to Bellingham and reported that the mountain is now "a seething volcano, belch ing forth vapors and sulphurous fumes," with three craters act lvely engaged in business. It is probable, as suggested by old timers, that the big hill is merely taking its periodical "smoke," as do Mt. Hood and other extinct volcanoes in that region. The possibility of a sure enough act ive eruption, they say, is very remote. A fire in the north end of Port land, Tuesday afternoon, swept one full block off the map of the business district, burned' most of three other blocks, and threat ened the entire district. Proper ty worth approximately $225,000 was destroyed, $1,000,000 worth was actually scorched, and sev erai millions worth was placed in jeapordy: The cause of the fire is not yet clear. There are several theories incendiarism, spontaneous combustion in a loft of new hay, dropping of a match, sparks from a chimney, etc. Bryan was initiated, Monday night, in Omaha, into the mys teries of the Ak Sar Ben, an order composed of the .. business men of Omaha and the State of Nebraska.

The voters of the country may dismiss. their anxiety. Wm. H Taft was officially notified, Tues day, of his nomination for Presi dent, and has accepted. . An auto party with three buzz wagons arrived in Portland Mon day from Los Angeles, bound for Seattle. They had been on the road just two weeks, and ; had a delightful trip.
