system of railroads. Tbe limit is becoming
narrowed down year by year, and it is only
question of time when the Northern Pa
cific will make nearly all of Eastern Oregon
tributary to the Sound.

The tread-mill wood-sawing machine was
stopped to-day by Deputy-Sher.JT Gates,
and the owner informed without he used

ments ot the deputy are worthy of the
highest commendation.
Jiast Oregonian: Over 300 head of cattle
have been ronnded np on the reservation by
the Indian police. This week a grand
round-up of horses will take placo. Uncle
Sam's edict that the green grass on the
reservation a hail giosr for tbe Indian alone,
is being strictly enforced.
The two-horse tread-mill sawing machine
got in operation this morning on the corner
of Second and Court, after vainly trying

bnt an Apache Indian should be allowed to
work in such a machine.
Prineville News: Some three weeks ago
snow fell to the depth of several inches on

jn their bi other farmers of Wasco county
who were Is) it in straightened circumstances

Eli Perkins has a successful rival in the
editor of the Milton Eagle. Hear him:
"Col. Parker, of Walla Walla, while on the
road, recently, left the car at Pasco to get a
glimpse of the elephant. He was immedi
ately beset by a multitude of hobos, each
clamoring for what we all want most. The
colonel, finding there was no escape, threw
bandtul ot gold among tnem, ana tnen

The latest capture of Gibbs comes from
Baker City, and we quote the following
from the Democrat of the 10th mst: "Ke-
liable news was received in this city last
night that the negro, Gibbs, the murderer
of yonng McUevitt, in rortland, was cap-
tured yesterday about noon on tne road
leading from Big Creek to Lower Powder,
about 20 miles from this city, by Ed Turner,
a farmer of that section. Turner took his
charge to Union. It is said the description
of the man arrested tallies exactly with
that of Gibbs and there can be no question
of his identity."
News: Collet Biiyeu tells us of the dis
covery of a vein of coal in the mountains
some six or seven miles west of the Ouhoco
gold mines. While he and his brother were
hunting there last week, they accidentally
discovered traces of coal where a tree had
been norooted, and upon prospecting dis
covered a three-inch vein of the product.
Mr. Biiyeu brought samples to town which
were thoroughly tested by our blacksmiths,
and pronounced first-class for their pur
poses. How extensiye the find may prove
to be is not known, but Mr. Bilveu says he
intends to further develop the find, and if
need be, capital can readily be found to
assist him. An easily worked coal mine in
or near this place is a matter of no small
value, aB might at first appear. Of course
the local demand is all that could be sup
plied, but men, that would pay well for de
veloping ths mine.
There is an old rooster in McMinnville
who has got into the habit of proposing to
the girls of that town, and bas made an un
mitigated nuisance ot uimaeir, says tne
West Side. He called on a fair damsel one
day last week and poured his soul into her
unwilling ear, declaring that t'were better
be were dead than to live without her: he
then invited her, in a cracked voice, to be
come tbe companion of bis declining years;
the partner of his joys and sorrows, etc.,
etc. She wanted none ot bim. However,
and Bbe went out and got several of her
chums. Together they tied the aged swain
to a bed post and whaled him with a mop;
then they combed his hair with a rake, put
treacle and apple jack on his old bald head
and down his neck and played the hose on
him. He is now seeking tbe aid of the law
for protection against the ire of the festive
McMinnville girl.

The Chinamen must go. The steam saw
ing machine reduces the wages of Mongolian.
Yankee ingenuity can drive the Mongolian
out of the country without legislative
action, and this is the only way it can be
done.
In the progress of the city old landmarks
are being constantly removed, and a resi
dent of The Dalles a few years ago would
not recognize the place now. Very few of
the old buildings of twenty years ago re
main. The climate of The Dalles excels any in
Oregon. The summers are not warm, nor
the winters cold. W hi!e snow lays on the
ground in tho Grand Round valley, this
portion of the state is enjoying the most
delightful weather.
A novel race between one of our aborig

voted on at the coming Catholic fair.
A former speaker of the legislature of
New Jersey now drives a street car in New

frequent in this conntiy that it will he no
matter of surprise if some car-drivers will
not be in the future speakers of legislatures.
The steam sawing machine finished the
pile of wood to-day that the treadmill bad
to give up yesterday. The steam machiug
does not kill animals only of the humnn
specie, and as there is no law protecting
man they can work with no fear of inter
ference. The case of state vs. Geo. Williams et al
has been on trial two days. The affair oc

Yakima Herald: Prosecuting Attorney
Snively reports that counterfeit five, tcu
and twenty dollar gold pieces are in circula
tion in Ellensburgh and over a thousand
dollars of this coin has been passed there
and a large amount at Spokane Falls. The
pieces are of good appearance and the right
ring, but are too iight in weight. The
coins are U3Ully passed during the rush of
business or at times when the attention of
the party on whom they are to be passed is
pre occupied. Yakima business men would
do well to be on their guard and closely
scan all gold tendered by strangers.

We learn from the Albany Democrat that
last Friday at Brownsville, Lyman Butts, a
man about 60 years of age, and Mrs. Clark,

rel over a fence, when Butts attaoked her,
striking her a heavy blow. A couple ot
men happened to see the act. M -s. Clark
rushed to Squire Hume's office, with blood
on her face and swore out a warrant against

Baker City Democrat: The daily stage
running between Canyon City aud -connecting
with the railroad at Heppner is doing a
good business with the people of Malheur
and Harney counties, owing no doubt, to
the danger attendant on the Baker City
route of being "held up." The Chinese

gold dust by this route to aynid being
robbed. -

The Palouse Gazette says: Hon. J. C. Tur
ner, while filling the olfice of county audi
tor, omitted a mortgage of d000 in making
out an abstract for Kuapp, Burreli & Co.,
by which that company became responsible.
The matter had to be made etraight, and
Mr. Turner last week gave a mortgage to
the full amount thereby becoming person
ally responsible. No intentional v.-fong was
perpetrated and thus an innocent person
suffers and pays the debts of someone else.

Those parties who are digging the ditch
for a water pipe on Third street, between
Langhlin and Federal, are liable to be called
up for heavy damages, if they do not use a
little care in leaving broken sidewalks.
Last night the walk was torn up and left so.
with a ditch dug under it, and nothing to
warn pedestrians, who were making their
way home after dark. Such carelessness is
not less than criminal, and onr city author
ities should see that care is used in sucb
work, and employees so grossly careless
should be discharged and competent men
put in their place.
Of the legal force recently played in Linn
county, where the two Rolfes, train wreck
ers, were acquitted and their compiuion, a
stranger, sent up for ten years, tbe Albany
Democrat says: "Three young men all to
gether in a common piece of deviltry. One
had a long tongue and went to j iil for a
multitude of years. The others went scott
free. That is a good illustration of the
ways aud history of life. There are two
men out of the penitentiary who deserve to
be thereto one who really looks from be
hind the bars. Not the worst boy in school
is always punished nor the meanest men in
the world who go to iail."
The Board of Trade, pnrsnnnt to a notice
to that tflect in yesterday's Times-Mountaineer,
met last night in the old court
house, to consider ways and means for sup
plying the possible needs of farmers in the
:routb-stricken district. A numlier of
tanners from the country were invited to
be present to g've their opinion as to the
possible amount of assistance required.
The farmers were there all right, and so
was our esteemed fellow citizen A. S. Mac-
allister, who kindled the tire and lit the
lamps. There would doubtless have been a
large and enthusiastic meeting if they had
come, but as usual they duln c, aud Mr,
Macollister and the farmers, after waiting
about an hour, folJed tbeir tents, like the
Arabs, and quietly stole away.
PLEASE TAKE IT BACK.
Wri.ten for the Times-Mountaineer,
The following poem is founded on real
life, and will be appreciated by very many
of our yoouir gatc-swingers and Lovers'
Nook boomers.
You kused me at the gate last night
And mother heard the "smack,"
She says 'tis naughty to do so,
So please, do take it back.
I cannot see what htrm thore is,
In such a thing, can you,
But mother seems so very wrath.
Please take it back now do.
It seems to be quite natural
For lips to meet that way,
But mother says 'tis very wrong,
So take it back, I pray.
An 1 come to thinkof it, I'm sure
That several times 'twas done,
So now to make it right, be sure
To tak-j back every one.
I would not have you think 'tis me,
I do not care a mite.
But mother's so particular,
" Please take them back to-night.

Astoria' Spectre B atm-.nu
PUne;r.
Astoria, from upprr town to Aldercoye, is
excited oyer what is supposed to be ghostly
yisitations. Seyeral persons affirm that re
cently they hare, when going home late at
night, seen a spectre boat, with set sail and
lone oconpant, glide out on the bay and dis
appear down tbe river. The first man to
report the matter was a Russian Fin, and
when he told the story he was laughed at.
The next morning another fisherman named
Stevenson reported that he also bad seen
the strange boat that disappeared down the
river. With this corroborative testimony
the curiosity of tbe neighborhood was
aiouscd and the next night a watch was set
for the supposed phantom. After many
hours of waiting and watching tbe investi
gators were rewarded by sighting the ex
pected craft out in the channel. In the
boat sat a man who held the sheet and
guided the vessel. It was bright n-.ijiulight
and the boat and figure, surrounded by a
mist and halo, could be plainly seen. The
phantom boat glided swiftly seaward and
tbe men pulled away in chase, which wa
continued for more than a mile, when the
pursued came to a standstill, and the Steven
son party rapidly drew up lowaru iu
When their boits got within perhaps a
hundred yards of the spook the figure was
seen to arise and wave its nana, ana aiuiosc
simultaneously the boat tilted stern np-
wards as if eoing over a huge wave and dis
appeared. This thoroughly frightened the
party and without stopping to investigate
further they returned to the shelter of thtir
cabins.
COJIfi BACK.
Some love-sick girl sends the following to
the Times-Mountaineer for publication,
If she felt as she writes she would hide the
feeling from the inquisitive gaze of the pub
lie, aud treasure it in tbe temple of her
heart of hearts. As regards the fellow
after whom she pines, we have made some
inquiry, and find that between the hours of
10 P. M. and 3 A. M. be can be found iu
one of our most popular saloons playing
"siuch" or "solo." He will not "come
back" until he holds four aces or can beat a
"heart solo." Tnis much for the consola
tion of tbe forlorn maiden:
Where art thou straying,
Roaming, delaying, afar from my side,
Dear one of my heart, waking or sleeping,
Ever I in keeping sweet memories
of
moments e er we did part:
Why didst thou leave me
E'er thou didst grieve me?
Still pining dear one for thee,
I am so lonely;
Grant me this only
Stay thou no longer away from my heart.
Why did we sever? You to be ever
Robbing my life of sunshine and bliss.
Since we were parted I have been
hearted.
From loss of thy smiles and sweet, loving
kiss.
Every to-morrrow brings me sorrow,
Tnat I am as far as ever from thee.
Tenderly heeding, list to my pleading-
Stay thou no longer away from my heart.
Come hack to the heart that is pming for
thee,
Waiting to greet you, lingering to meet
you,
Oh, stay thou no longer!
Come back to the heart that ia true.

About 8 o'clock Tuesday, young Rorke
came in trom bis mothers farm, son tu oi
the city, aud informed Sheriff McFarland
that a crazy man had come to the farm early
that evening on foot, and built a big fire
near the barn. One of the ladies of the
household went out and asked him what he
wanted. The man answered by an inquiry
for the owner of the farm saying he wanted
to kill him. The lady then retreated and
informed young Rokeof the man's presence,
lie then went and coaxed the man to the
house and then to bed, after which he came
to the city after tho officers. Deputy Mac
kay accompanied by George Gutbride left
immediately tor the place, and returned
about 11 o'clock having the insane man in
clmr-fi. On the arrival of the officers at
the Rorke place, they awakened the mau
aud asked bim what he wanted. He said
that he owned a farm on Mud creek where
he intended going. He was coaxed out
doors, and handcuffed aud brought to the
citv. Durinir the drive in he talked con
stantly in a nighty way, but would not give
his name. JNo oue seemed to be able to
identify him. He is about 40 years old, of

A fctad Incident. '
Spanirle Record.
The many friends and acquaintances of
Mrs. H. W. Hiuton, who lives about one
and a half miles west of town, were sur
prised and shocked to learn that on yester
day morning without the least premonitory
symptons, the lady suddenly became insane.
In one of tbe paroxysms she endeavored to
seize a butcher-knite which ner daughter,
Susie, was using, and it was only after a
desperate struggle tbat tbe girl succeeded in
freeing herself from her mother's grasp and
throwing the dangerous implement into the
stove. It required the services of three or
four persons to control the unfortunate lady
until the arrival of Dr. Hoxsey, who found
it necessary to administer strong sedatives
in order to allay the excitement and to re
main constantly beside her for several
hours. The cause ot this surprising affair
is a mystery at present. After ten days of
intense suffering the lady regained her
senses.

wood.
Forrest, for the defense, demanded that
tbe chips be put in also, aud that tbe hair
be left in the custody of the clerk. This
led to a bitter dispute between opposing
counsel, which was finally dropped, and
salesman Hatfield, who sold the furnl
ture to J. B. Simonds, was called to tbe
witness chair. He po.-itively identified
the frame of the satchel found in the
sewer Friday, as corresponding in size

tbe handle were tbe same. The frame
was nduiitted in evidence.

that the evidence as to the trial and ex
pulsion of Dr. Cronin from the Clan-na
Gael in 18S5 was not admissible.

the s'ate's attorney said the case for tbe
people was closed except the testimony
of Clancy, of the New York Herald, who
would be here to morrow. On applica

Helena. Nov. 14. The election
in Silver Bow county is growing worse
daily. Tuesday Judge DeWolf retired
from office and Mi Hatton, democrat,
who is elected by counting Tunnel pre
cinct, took his chair. He also recognized
as sheriff of the county Sullivan, the
democratic candidate, wbose case was
analogous to his own.' L'oyd, who was
the old sheriff, and who was the republi
can candidate at the last election, claims
that lie was elected by tbe throwing
out of Tunnel precinct, and refuses to
surrender the keys of bis office and of
the jail to Sullivan. To-day the baoeas
corpus cases of tbe two men under indict
n.ent for dynamiting were called up by
Judge McIIatton, but Lloyd refused to
surrender tbe prisoners to Sullivan, who
wag directed to produce them in court.
Hamilton, the contesting judge, opened
another court, and L'oyd bioaght tbe
prisoners before him.

Oregonian, Oct. 17.
It was learned on tbe streets yesterday
evening tbat Mrs. C. P. Ferry, accom
panied by ber little son and a female
traveling companion, was in tbo city on
ber way to San Francisco. A reporter at
once made f e rounds of tbe hotels, bat,
after a long, dilligent search, failed to
find her name registered at tbe leading
bostleries.
A gentleman who saw tbe parting of
tbe pair at Tacoma. states that while
waiting for tbe train Mr. and Mrs. Ferry,
to while away the time, walked back and
forth on tbe depot platform, with their
arms locked, chatting pleasantly and ap
parently as loving as it is possible for a
newly married couple in the first stages of

tbe bli-isful honeymoon to be. "When the
train pulled out Mr. Ferry assisted his
late bosom companion and their little
son into the car, and then sat down with
them until the tram was ready to start,
ft., j . ... .
ineir conduct lowaru eiicli other was
very affectionate, and those who were not
acquainted with the sensational circum
stauces leading to their separation could
ever know tbe barrier between them.
The Salem Statesman says that Daniel
Webster, some half century ago, declared
tbat Oregon Territory was -so far off that
It could never be governed by the United
Slates, and a delegate in congress would
not reach - Wadhiogton until a year after
the expiration of bis term." Tbis puts us
in mind of the account given of the ridi
cule heaped upon the firnt proposition for
a railroad. "Why," remarked our revered
forefathers, "tbo bare idea is preposter
ous. O0I7 think of the difficulty of keep
ing those steam wagons on the track,
while-running at the remarkable speed of
ten miles an hour."

The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.:
Gentlemen Seven years ago I contracted
an exceedingly bad case of blood poison. I
tried a physician, the best at command, but
secured no benefit. My throat bejjan to
get sore, and my body covered with sores
and ulcers. Going from bad to worse, I
felt that my grave must be reached in the
near future. I gave up the doctors' treat
ment, and with a despairing hope I com
menced taking your medicine. I began to
Improve from the first bottle, and in a short
time the ulcers healed, and my skin cleared
oS and was entirely well.
One year ago a case of catarrh developed
in my system. The physician did his best,
but could not cure me ; but two bottles of
Swift's Specific gave me permanent relief.
