Mr. A. J. - Wall, the owner of the "spot
ted crow," is in Portland, and yesterday
very alarming telegrams were received here
regarding one of our citizens. But our peo
ple knew that Wall was np to one of his
jokes, and the alarm qnieted down.
. Astoria Pioneer: Mrs. Robert Morrison,
one of the oldest pioneer in this state, is
lying at the point of death in Clatsop. Tho
lady "came the plains over" in 1846 and is
now nearly 90 years of age. She is being
kindly cared for by friends and relatives.
Yaqnina Republican: The big tides are
cnttinp a channel through the eand spit on
South beach in front of the old government

there will be a good chaunel from the upper
to the lower bay in a short time on vtha
south side.
Frieman, the Portland restaurant man,
charged the Pasco Land Company $1,400 50
for the banquet given to newspaper scribes
a short time igo. This was considered an
exhorbitant figure and now the man of
steaks and stews has brought suit and is
keeping an eye on Pasco in the courts.
East Oregonian: A man named Brassfield,
living near Echo, passed through Pendleton
Fliilay cn the east-bound freight train in a

Lewiston Teller: P. Gose, of Uniontown,
was in -the city on Tuesday having been
over to Asotin in attendance on court. He
informed us that upwards of 150,000 bushels
of grain would be shipped from Uniontown
this fall, and taking into consideration the
failure of crops in all parts, we consider
this a good amount from that section.
W. W. Statesman: Mr. and Mrs. Royce
have been dismissed. The trial was heard
Thursday evening before Justice Taylor.
D. J. Crowley was the attorney for the O.
& W. T., G. T. Thompson, B. L. and J. L.
Sharpstein for Mr. and Mrs. Royue. The
bond given by the railroad was held by
Justice Taylor not to be of force, hence the
defendants were discharged.
Astorian: While digging a trench by his
. house, which is on the site of the old origi
nal or aboriginal Astor fort, yesterday, Rob
Carrnthera came across the lines of the old
magazine built in eighteen hundred and
ever so few, and nnearthed some ancient
spikes which once held the walls of the
uiagizino together, and which were quickly
seized upon as relics by those present.
While a respected minister was leaving
the honse of one of his parishoners he was
startled by the cry: "Oh, my Jesus has
gone." Turning to ascertain the meaning
of the irreverent expression, he saw a little
boy pass him on a run and grab a pet
kitten in his arms and take it into the
house. He explained the situation by in
forming the gentleman that in opening the
gate be had unconsciously let his pet cat,
which he called Jeans, escape.
Yakima Herala: Kelson Rich has secured
the contract to build a ten mile ditch in
Eastern Yakima, to extend from "the
Horn" to the Columbia. Joseph Baxter,
F. C. Sharkey, Nelson Rich and H. J.
Suively are the projectors of the enterprise.
The line of ditch has been surveyed and
cross-sectioned and active work was com
menced by the contractor Monday on the
Burning and rock cuts. The ditch will
have a width of twelve fee on the bottom
and the estimated cost is $20,000.
Teller: H. Sqnire presented us this week
with a copy of a Golden Age extra, published
in this city on January 1 1, 1SG3, giving a
fall account of the shooting of Henry J.
Talbotte alias "Cherokee Bob" and Wm.
Willoby by J. D. Williams and O. Bobbins,
at Florence, Idaho. The paper has been
well preserved and the printing is yet clear
and distinct. The parties were tried before
Jasper Rand, now of this city, who was at
that time a justice of the peace in that then
flourishing mining camp. The paper can
be seen at this office by those who wish.
Old Wallula is nearly extinct. In former
years, during steamboat days, three old
adobe buildings stood on the b-nka of the
river, and a hotel, and this coi stituted the
'town. The adobes constituted Ft. Walla
Walla, and the Walla Walla cf to-day was
the Wailatpa mission, where Rev. Marcus
W hitman was massacred by Indians. OM
Jaudmaiks are constantly being removed
and beinjr obliterated by time. New Wal
lula is a lively little town of considerable
pretentions to business and railroad impor
tance, with strong expectations for the fu
ture. John C. Fremont,- the first Republican
candidate for president, is now auout 65
years of age. His hair is snow white and
Jje seems to have paid great attention to the
cars of his locks and whiskers. Tne latter
are cut in the French style and bis hair is
parted in the middle. General Fremont's
adventuresome life has left but little im
pression upon him, and by his present ap-
earance no one would oe prompted to pick
out as the fathhnder of the Rock
ntains. His career is marked with
many interesting historic reminiscences, but
bin name is seldom mentioned in public
ire lei,
Uert On Thursday-last the pack train
neon returned from Warrens and
has now laid np for the winter. They
brought down with them two mule loads of
bullion and deposited in the Liwiston JNa
tional bank, to be shipped to the mint
San Francisco. It was taken out by Mr.
Reibold from different ledges in the camp
during the past six months and is estimated
to be of the value of seyeuty-five or eighty
thousand dollars. This is the largest shin
ment ever made from theie at one time and
will compare with any from any camp
Idaho or Washington. Give them an out
let and the opportunities of other places
and you will have the best mining camp of
any in the northwest and will produce more
valuable metals.
Port Townsend Argus: Saturday evening
Jast Joseph Lovely a little son of Henry
Lovely fell oyei board from Bartlett's wharf
and was drowned. Ho had been playing
around the wharf most of the afternoon
waiting for his father to return from Whid
by Island, and it is supposed that in the
darkness he missed his footing and went
into the water. When the little fellow did
not come home to his supper his father
went at once to the wharf to look for him
knowing that he usually waited for him
there to meet bim on his return from the
island. A search was at once institute!
and his body was found back of the Central
hotel, i he parents are almost distracted
with gruf and fears are entertained reiarJ

A copy of the Idaho Tri-Weekly States
man, of August 2, 1804, more than twenty-
live years ago, tells us that beef was retail
ing at that time at 1G and 25 cents per
pouu.i; mutton, 20 and 25: chickens, $2
ami 2 50 each; batter, SI per pound; eggs,
$1.50 per dozen; potatoes, nev, 15 cents
per pound; oats, 12; Lay, S'io and $40 per
ton; onions, zo and 30 cents per pound;
cabbage, 15, and so on. The following
winter, however, the foregoing articles com
manded double the price, and many of them
could not be had at that, and green cotton
wood was scarce at $20 per cord. Iu the
same number of the Slutcsman the editor,
Jas. S. Reynolds, acknowledges from John
McClellan the receipt of specimens of yellow
flint corn, followed by a column setting
forth the productiveness of Hoise valley
soil. The law cards of Judge M. Kelley
and Eugene Semple, ex-governor of W ash-
mgton territory, also appear among the ad
vertisements. Semple had tnen just got in
from the plains, a sprig of a lawyer, full of
alkali, cussedness, devilment and Democ
racy; and after taking an active part in the
political campaign of that fall, came to Oi-
egon, where ho became one ot the leaders
of the party.
From Wednesday's Daily.
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Sherararein the city.

night.
Albina has a lady barber. She is said to
be an expert with the razor.
The seasons follow each other, spring,
summer, autumn and winter.
The rain has poured down very copiously
during the pact few days, and the streets
are muddy.
On the Clh of next month the citizensof
Idaho will vote on the adoption of the
new constitution.
Mr. Chas. Durbin arrived in the city last
night from Nebraska, where he had been
with a carload of sheep.
Mrs. Althouse arrived in Albany during
the week from Illinois. She is 90 years of
age, and is as lively and active as many
women much younger.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Sellers have been in
Portland for some days in attendance on
the exposition. Before they return they
will visit the sound and Victoria.
, We are not a weather prophet, but a man
told us the other day that he thought we
would have snow between the 1st of Novem
ber and 1st of March. . Strange, isn't it?
The place where the depot is being
erected is in a solid rock bed, and thin
hits to be removed by giant powder. This
is the cause of the continuous blasting in
i hat direction.
Capt. Aulauff has shown us a patent car
axle, which will revolutionize the railroad
car of the present day. The axle is in two
separate parts, and in turning curves the
strain is equalized.
Mis. F. P. Mays, of this city, took the
first prize for amateur photography at the
Exposition lately held in Portland. This
was a very fine display, and was most ex
cellent work for an amateur.
Wallowa Chieftain: We are informed that
the horses stolen from Mr. Caldwell on
Snake river were found hid away in the
monntaius near Salmon river. Our inform
ant did not know whether the thieves were
captured or not.
We have heard nothing about the survey
ing party between the headwaters of Hood
river and Mill creek for several days. The
report was in circulation a few days ago
that they had encountered a rocky bluff,
around which it was impossible to run a
ditch.
Frank Watson and William Goolsby,
from this county, the one lor seven and
Ihe other for one year, in conjunction with
a convict named Johu Ooughery, attempt
ed to escape from the penitentiary last
Friday. The scheme was found out be
fore carried out, and tlie prisoners simply
added to their terms of imprisonment.
Albina Courier: The 17-year-old daughter
of a well known citizen of Portland ran
away from home a week ago last Wednes
day. Last Tuesday evening she was found
in a box car in this city with the declared
intention of going to The Dalles. Chief
Curtin took her in charge and telephoned
for Officer Woods, of Portland, who took
her home.
A Mrs. McGinn, of Oakland, California,
at the risk of her life, grabbed the bit of a
runaway horse and stopped the animal,
thereby saving the life of a little babe.
After all was over the father of the child
patronizingly offered the woman 59 cents
in appreciation of her heroism. Eveu an
Oregon mossback wouldn't be guilty of such
an offense.
A tramp worked the town yesterday.
He claimed to have been wounded iu
both hips, and wanted money to get to
Portland to a well-to-do brother. Later in
the day he imbibed freely of benzine and
spent the evening in the city jail. The
next morning; he was ordered to leave,
and made no hesitancy in complying with
the request.
In a tew weeks there will be a general
change in the postage stamps used in the
United states aud the variety will suit even
an evening rainbow. Here is the list: Oue
cent, ultramarine blue; 4 cent, chocolate;
5 cent, light brown;' 6 cent,, vermiilion; 10
cent, melon green; 15 cent, steel blue; 30
cent, black; CO cent, orange. The old 2
cent stamp will be cut down about one-
fourth smaller, and be ot metallic red or
carmine color.
Last evening, as our daily forms were be
ing printed, the clang of the fire bell rang
loudly, aud there was hurrying to and fro.
After running two or three blocks it was
ascertained that some one came running
down street screaming "fire! fire" aud then
the bell tapped and the engine aud hose
cart were brought out. We learned that
the alarm was caused by Mr. J. B. Condon's
chimney burning. If The Dalles was not
so young we should advocate the feasibility
of an electric fire alarm ; but infants must
creep before they can walk.
Salem Journal: There was quite a
bloody fighting affair near Woodburn yes
terday. It seems that in coming up from
Ray's Landing yesterday morning a
coup'e of men engaged in a quarrel and
one struck the other on Ike side of the
head inflicting a deep and dangerous
wound. The affair grew out of an old
difficulty and may result in the death of
the assaulted victim. The affair took
place in a baggage or express car on the
train and no little excitement prevailed
for a short time. The party who did the
terrible deed has not been arrested as yet
learned.
Cfiieftain: In answer to a communication
addressed to him from the railroad com
mittee at Union G. W. Hunt states that he
will be over soon to make final arrangements
for the extension ot his road to Grande
Ronde. He will be at Uuion Thursday,
Oct. 31st; Summerville, Friday, Nov. 1st
and Elgin, Saturday, November 2 1, to meet
the people in mass convention. Mr. Hunt
expects to build his road to Grande Rour'e
via Elgin, provided the subsidy subscribers
will extend the line named in the contract
to December, 1891. It is thought there will
be no trouble in arranging the matter satis
factorily to all parties concerned.
There are striking characters iu the play,
and these are well sustained. Dollie Nobles
is a better actress than she was when her
last engagement was played here. She has
a pretty contralto voice, which is always
pleasant to hear. A Ritta, she acted with
discretion and intalligence.and managed an
Italian accent very well. The members of
the company see n to have been selected
with a special reference to their fitness for
the parts they fill and a remarkable smooth
performance is the result. It puts many
more pretention i companies, as Milton
Nobles pats othe more pietentious drama
tists, in the sh.de. .Son Francisco Daily
Examiner. Ar.nory Hall Monday, Novem

Oregonian: The town of Rxeburg is
Stirred np over the marri ige on Monday
morning of Congressman Hermann's daugh
ter, without the consent of her parents,
Dr. Miller had been paying attentions to
the young lady, and on Sunday night asked
the congressman tor his daughters hand
Mr. Hermann declined to give his consent.
not because of personal objections to the
suitor, but because he bad outlined a course
of education in the east for the young lady,
and it was his desire that she should under
go it. The statement that Dr. Miller was
"removed from the house without cere
mony" is absurd. Miss Hermann overheard
the conversation between her father and the
doctor, and left her home and stayed that
night at a neighbor s. The next niornin
the marriage took place. When Congress
man Hermann heard of it be did not lie
come w rathy as some papas do, but kindly
otiered to tender the young couple a recep
tion, and is reported to have said that hail
he known that the young people were so
deeply in love he wonid not have denied his
content.
Exchange: Perhaps the smallest town
in the world in which a newspaper is pub
lished is Orondo, in the Big Bend country
the home of the Urondo Aetcs. ihe vu-
lage consuls of three not very imposing
builuiugs, one being used as a store, one
as a dwelling, aud oue for the printing
office. The present population comprises
eight souls tour adult males, three worn
en and a little girl. The town lies inline
diatety on the left bank of the Columbia,
where that grand river rushes between
steep mountains on the west and high,
abrupt blulls ou the east. 1 he compost
tor on Hie Jews "keeps batch" in the lit
tle room occupied by the tvpe.cases and
six-column army press. A kitchen table
is used for an "imposing; stone," aud the
cook stove serves to warm me oince and
try the bacon for both editor and printer.
But one other house can be seen from the
town" aud that is across the river at the
toot of an almost perpendicular mountain,
which towers aurupilv fully JUUO lect
above the river, leaving barely enough
level space at the river bank fur a house.
Wrbere the patronage of the News comes
from the spectator cau not see, as there
can not possibly be more than a dozen
persons living within a radius of three
miles from Orondo. It the News succeeds
there, it certainly would seem that a paper
ought to make a living anywhere.

Deputy Lounsbury left this afternoon
with the man arrested as Gay. He feels
pretty sure that he is the man, and will be
identified as such when he arrives in Port
land. Mrs. C. P. Ferry's satchel was robbed in
Portland, and she estimates ber loss at
from $10,000 to 13,000. This is one of the
glaring evils which hedge the path of the
rich.
The six prisoners in the Walla Walla city
jail prefer to liye-on bread aUd water than
work or the streets. The Union suggests
that a treadmill might bring them to their
senses.
Bro. Snyder, of the Dallas Observer, is
righting for sewerage for his city. We hope
he may be successful, as drainage is abso

East Oregonian: Sunday's ram and wind
storm occasioned some damage as well as
lots of benefit, if we may believe the farm
ers, who say that considerable grain just
seeded was blown from the soil by the wind.
Notwithstanding the partial failure of
crops in tiiis and adjoining counties we have
heard of no suffering. Not so with unfor
tunate Dakota. Many families are on the
point of starvation, the cold weather has
begun, and relief must come speedily.
The great distribution of prizes by Messrs.
Staver & Walker at the exposition last Sat
urday attracted a large audience. The
lucky holders of tickets were scattered all
over the northwest, from Idaho to Oregon,
and each was well satisfied with his prize.
The flag with forty-two stars will not be
legal until July 4th, 1890. The new states
will not be admitted until next winter.
The law says on this subject: On the ad

flag, and such addition shall take effect on
the 4th day of July then next succeeding
such admission.
Rev. A, Bronsgeest, rector of St. Peter's
church, has been very sick since last Fri
day. He feels a little better to-day, al
though very weak yet. Rev. J. Rauw, of

Vancouver Register: In the burnt district
of EUensburgh, there are 4500 feet of brick
frout buildings completed; this means al
most a mile. Of all these buildings there
are not two hundred feet of one-story work
the majority being two and three stories
high. This is certainly a remarkable show
ing when it is considered that the entire
business portion of that city, with the ex
ception of one or two brick buildings, was
swept away by fire on the 4th of July, leJ-s
than four months ago.
Cor vail is Times: One day last week six
Chinamen, who were emploved as section
hands on the O. P. R. 11., had a rather mir
aculous escape. They were crossing a
bridge near the Summit with their hand car
at a good rate of speed when it jumped the
track and carried the six unfortunate celes
tials some thirty feet to the bottom of the
ravine. Strange to say, none of them were
killed, although two were considerably in
jured. It remains a conundrum just what
made the car leave the track at that partic
ular spot.
The Shoshone and Ba nnock Indians at
Pocatello have been holding a great pow
wow and rain dance, and the next day after
the ceremonies began the rain began to ap
pear. This dance brought together a large
number of the remnants of these and other
tribes from Nevada and Idaho, and a geuer
al time of rejoicing and dancing has lasted
for the past week. Grotesque and fanciful
costumes and decorations were seen, and
all the braves were painted np in great
shape, "hand painted" for the occasion, re
gardless of expense.

Dunn, a boy of 16 years, was on the way
from Independence with a load of sand,
when nar the residence of Mr. Coolcdge,
about 2J miles east of this place, he fell
from his load and was severely injured by a
wheel of the wagon passing over the lower
portion of the right leg. He was brought
to town and Dr. Stanley was called to attend
the sufferer. He found the little bone on
the outside of the leg aud the big bone on
the inside badly broken and the ankle
severely sprained.
Our city was honored last evening by the
presence of as jolly lot of boys as exist on
the face of the earth. There were over a
hundred conductors gathered troni all points
of the United States and Canada. One of
oar reporters obtained tbe following facts
from Dick Hargis, passenger conductor on
W. & V. R. R. at Atlanta, Ga. The party
left St. Louis on the 13th of this month
and came over the U. P. R. R. as far as
Salt Lake city, stopping one day at that
nlace thev then proceeded direct to San
Francisco, where they held a grand conclave
lasting six days. Tbey visited the Yose
mite valley and numerous watering places
on the coast, and now they are bound back
to their respective pests of duty. It took
nine cars to accommodate the crowd.

their money where they have accumulated
it. We wish we had a few more such

ten times the number of its population,
and our resources would not lack devel
opment. Aside from these inimmo.li
structures of Messrs. Vogtand Curtis, Mr.

ed there is an increasing demand for
houses, and very many fa miles are tenting

equally brisk in this line, and already
seven large bricks arc contracted for and

Petition.
The following petition was numerously
signed by many of our old, citizens, and
will explain itself:
To the Honorable, the Mayor, akd
City Council of Dalles City, Oregon.
Gentlemen: We the undersigned ancient
citizens of Dalles City, Wasco county,
Oregon, and vicinity, viewing with deep
regret the hardships imposed by a late
city ordinance, which we learn seriously
nects the long established practice ot
JNaggs being bitched at convenient places
of business or public resort, and demands
nat alter dark said JNaggs be hitched out
side of the city.
Now therefor we the undersigned very
esrectfully pray that said ordinance be
so qualified as to allow said Naggs during
his natural life to visit and hitch at all
his ancient hitching posts, whether of
amp. telegraph, street or corner posts, at
any and all times of day and night, and
we as in duty bound wib always pray.

Their names are Archibald Clemens, aged

he is on the track of them. Last night our
police authorities arrested a man whom
they believe to be Gay, and he is now in
jail aud will be taken to Portland. We

Cutting Affray.
Davenport Times.
Last Tuesday morning the town was con
siderably worked np by a cutting affray, in
which a man named Samuel B. Wright was
stabbed by one Thos. Sullivan. There was
none of the usual noisy demonstrations pre
facing the assault, and few people on the
street was attracted to the spot until after
the cu tting. From what can be learned of
the case the two men had had some words
prior to the murderous assault. They were
standing on the sidewalk on Harker street
in front of Judge Small's office, when the
quarrel was renewed am) Sullivan- made a
lunge at V right witn a pocket unite, xne
blade entered tbe abdoman. As soon as be
was cnt Wright kicked his assailant, who
started south on Hal ker street. He ran in
to the brush on the creek, when a few min
utes afterwards be was arrested by Officer
Boyes. The wounded man was examined
by Drs. Whitney and Avers, ami after the
cut was dressed he was temoyed to the Oc
cidental hotel. This moruii g the wounded
man shows no signs of improvement and tne
physicians fear peritonitis may result. It
is yet difficult to determine what may be
the termination of the wound. Both men
have been employed on the railroad.
Wright has been cooking for tbe railroad
graders here. Sullivan waived an examina
tion before Judge Robinson Tuesday, who
bound him over in the sum of' $2500. Not
being able to procure the necessary bad
Sullivan was taken to Spragae Wednesday.

SECRETARY BLATNE's HEALTH.
Washington, Oct. 29. 'Walker Blaine
says: "We have for some time been so
tired of denying such tales that we Lave
concluded not to dignify this last one of
why my fathet wrote the Florence letter
with any notice whatever. Fatner, im
mediately after his return from Europe,
went into the campaign and delivered no
less than seventy-five speeches. To day
he is in as good health as be ever enjoyed,
though constantly at work at the state
department or at his home. You can
draw your own inferences, therefore, as
to tbe truth or falsity of tbe tale."
Joseph Man ley, postmaster ot Agustua,
Me., is probably as near to Mr. Biaine as
any man living. He says: ''I have not
much to say, for I consider tbe story
about Blane's Florence letter too ridicu
lous, I probably know as well as any
man can know who was not present, that

anxiety is felt regarding tbe reported
drowning of some persons near bteila-

there was a.woman child in the boat. As
the current runs very rapid in tbat vicin
ity, the bodies may not be recovered for

VIGOROUS KICK.
A Merchant's Wife the) Bone of Contention.
A Denunciation.
a ii known merchant who has been greatly
Benefitted by Joy's Vegetable Samaparilla, desired
to give it to his wile, who was very delicate, but
rot of caatiou first consulted his physician. Dr.
W. H. Grlawold of 850 Market street The doctor,
who la one of our leading practitioners objected,
my ing he had never seen a sarsaparilla that did
not contain potash, which thinned tho blood;
that hia natient did not have any vitality to lose,
and that what delicate people need is not de
creased vitality, but more blood. He consented
when assured that Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla
was directly opposed to the old mistaken blood
thinning idea of other sarsapariUaK, and that on
the contrary by specific vegetable alteratives it
stimulated the excretory organs, promoted diges
tion, and repaired nutrition, hence created new
blood and was the very thing for feeble people.
The above explains the hundreds ot cases In
which aged, enfeebled, delicate and run down
people, have been built op by Joy's Vegetable
Barsaparilla after the potash sanaparuias lauea.
Its effects are creating sensation. & f. E

Tate Springs, Ten., July 4, i8S3.
The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.:
During the spring of 1871, while working
In the field at my home in Morgan county,
Ga I pulled off my shoes to give my feet a
rest. Unfortunately, I walked into a clump
of poison oak, and in few days my feet
were in a teriible condition, and I could not
put on a shoe because of the soreness and
swelling-. I was treated as poison oak cases
usually are, and everything- was healed up.
About the same time- the following spring-,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,
and every succeeding- spring for five years
brought back the same condition of the dis
ease, only each time it became more dis
tressing, because I began to think it was a
lifetime trouble. Finally, I was induced to
try Swift's Specific. I took six bottles, and
to-day am entirely well. My improvement
was gradual from the first, and no evidence
of tbe disease remains. I shall take picas
ore in testifying as to its curative proper,
ties. It is the greatest blood purifier in CA
istence. Yours truly, J. L. Morgan.
The forejrointr certificate Is taken at
random from thousands of letters in posses

simply as a sample. It is a voluntary
statement, giving facts and results of the
case. Its accuracy and genuineness see
