The Healyites claim tcHiave discovered a well organized plot to murder 'leading anti Paroellities who may atteDd tbe funeral of tbe late states' man. This will be made the excuse fo; absence on the part of man y, arid it is be' lieved tffat they are rather glad of so good an excuse to stay away, thus avoid ins the disorders that teem inevitable, in case the factions meet at a grave of tbe man over whom they quarreled-so bitter ly in life. The better c asses of tbe Irish people deeply deplore the unseemly wrangle, which has broken at a moment when decencv would have dictated a ces nation of hostilities. Most of tbe 'ad spirit being manifested is due to ibe harsh attacks made on Far nell's personal charactt-r' almost before his body was cold, by -Archbishop Walsh in toe Irish Uatlwlir., ar,d toe nearlv as bitter response in United Ireland. Many refuse to believe that the archbishop is the author of the article iu question, though no denial to that announcement has been made. Most of the- McCar- thytiea prefer not to be interviewed, as they think there is too much talk goiogo n and too many things being Baid in tbe excitement of the moment wbicb will be regretted later on. Daring Kobbery of a Bank In al Iowa County. La Grande. Oct. 9. Word bas just reached here of a daring robbery wbicb was perpetrated upon tbe National bank of Enterprise, in Wallowa county.

Upon Mr. Holmes saying tbat no eucb man bad any money there, the visitor pulled out a pistol and sticking it in bis face, said : "You are a damned liar." By this time two confederates bad come up on horseback, and while one, sittiugon bis borse, with a pistol in each band, warned the people back, tbe other en tered the bank, and pushed all tbe money, on the counter, $3b00, into a sack. The three then e aped to tbe mountains in tbe direction of Cornucopia A posse was organized and sent in pursuit, but, as the country is sparsely ' settled, their capture is doubtful, Four thousand dol lars more was in the till under the count er and could have been bad as well as not bad the robbers taken tbe time.

Vic Beebe, a young man 24 years of age, and a son ol a well known mill man ot Woodlawn, was killed in cold blood by a man named Day. In the early part of the afternoon young Beebe had some difficulty with Day s son. about some cows that were destroying Beebe's corn, and slapped young Day's face. Tbat evening about twilight the elder Day, who is a rancb man called at Beebe's camp and asked him to walk down the road with him toward Woodlawn. Tbe two proceeded about half a mile along the road, talking over the difficulty that had occurred in the earlier part of the dav, when Day suddenly turned around, and, drawing bis gun, shot Beebe through the body, the ball entering the right side and coming out on tbe left, passing through both !ungs. A boy who bad joined the party saw the shooting. Day turned upon him and made an attempt to kill bini also, but the cartridge caught in tbe barrel of tbe gun and tailed to discbarge. Tbe boy took to bis heels and reached Woodlawn where he reported the killing of Beebe. lieebe s body was brougbt.to Woodlawn that night and an inquest held. ' Day had fled to tbe woods, but -was captured next morning by tbe constable.

It isn't tbe first time pap has done tbe like. ' Served him Right. Binohamton, N. Y., Oct. 12. Domes tic infelicitude between Mrs. Alvin De- long, of this city, and ber husband induced her to shoot him about midnight last night, killing him instantly. One of the bullets entered his left arm. and the otber bis heart. Some years ago Delong was employed on tbe Delaware and 11 ud eon. but lost bis position on account of bis Bacchanalian propensities. Then he took up painting and paper-banging for , vocation, lie was a bard worker, but pent a large portion of his earnings with other women and for liquor. His family includes three children two daughters, the eioeBt ot whom is 17 years, and a son about 14 years of age. On Saturday Delong attended a fair in this city, and when be returned to supper it was plainly evident tbat he had been drinking.

Springfield, Mo., Oct. 12. The news from Stone county respecting tbe search for tbe cave outlaws is still very exciting. Tbe cave where tbe outlaws and suspected robbers are concealed, if they bave not escaped through another- outlet known only to themselves, is in one of tbe wildest regions of tbe Ozark moun tains, nearly forty miles from a railroad telegraph omce. Tbe latest report states tbat Sheriff Bookout's force bas been largely increased by reinforcement of armed men, who rallied to the scene of the excitement from all parts of Stone countv. Growing impatient at the fruit less results ol tbe siege, the posse deter mined to enter the cavern and hunt for tbe outlaws and tbeir supposed treasures Tbe cave proved to be a great wonder world, containing numerous avenues and pits. Descending into one of these yawn ing chasms tbe party round otber rooms below tbe first'story of chambers. The possibility of finding one of tbe tradi tional lost silver mines of tbe Ozark mountains, once said to be known to tbe Spanish adventurers who explored the White river country, also stimulated tbe searching party. Room after room was entered, but nothing much was found. It is reported that tbe robbers when dis covered by tbe prospecting mineis a few days ago, told tbe latter tbat they bad plenty to eat and could escape, if neces sary, tbrougo an outlet Known only to themselves. Tbe sheriff and posse are still keeping op tbe search. A Romantic Story. Cincinnati, Oct. 12. The court at San Diego, Cal., has just given Mrs. Wbitewortb, of this city, and two cousins $20,000 worth of real estate in the heart tbat city. Mrs. Whitnworth is a daughter of James Robinson, a teacher, who, sixty three years ago, deserted fait wife and two children near this city and eloped with Sallie Snyder, a pupil. They went first to Canada. After two or three years tbe girl sought unsuccessfully a reconciliation with ber parents. At tbe same time, Robinson surreptitiously visited and, unknown to tbem, secured a glimpse of bis own family. The couple then went South, as we determined upon at tbe start. They settled in what it now Texas. Robinson prospered, and was elected lieu tenant-governor, and later became governor through tbe lm peach men c of governor Smith at tbe time of tbe war over Texas. He was captured by Mexicans and terribly abused, until be promised to use his influence to bave tbe state return to Mexico. .This mda bim unpopular, and he went to Califor nia to avoid lynching. There be became wealthy, and died in 1863. A son of tbe Snyder woman became a member of tbe California legislature, but died in early manhood. The Snyder woman, who all along had been supposed to be Robin son's wife, bad inherited all tbe property, but twenty years ago sold all the realty, and a few years ago returned to Cincin nati, ' Mrs. Whiteworth beard of it two years ago.hunted ber op, and learned her father's history, and began tbe suit which bas ended so well for her. . Mist Snyder it now 82 years old, but bright as a woman of 50. She rerides at Wyoming, a suburb, and though rich, still cherishes such a hatred toward ber family for re fusing to forgive ber that she allows ber only brother to reside in the count poor bouse.

Thursday evening two Indiana arrived at Rockland, Wash., from Yakima, a distance of oyer eighty miles, having rode it that day. This was a big ride for their little animals, and when the horses arrived at Rockland they were completely exhausted.

Hood River Glacier: Mr. George C- Jones, cf Appleton, Wisconsin, baa been here for some time examining into toe resources of this section principally with an eye to purchasing timber lands but incidentally is looking into otber of our resources. It is to ue nopea mat ne uiaj find encouragement in bis laudable in tentions, and we hope to be able to state tbat a mill will be built here through bis efforts. There is not a finer location in tbe northwest, and we incline to the opinion tbat Jar. jones agrees wuu tuw idea. t The state of Oregon it about to become plaintiff in a civil suit in wbicb Baker connty will bs defendant. It will be an action to recover money. xaer cuuuiy owes tbe state a considerable sum as taxes.

And it is for this the state it suing. During all of these years the state has carried tbe debt, but it bas been done coraplaimngly. Bills for it baye been sent to Baker county from tbe state treasurer's office but no remittances ba7e come in response. Several other counties owe different sums on the same account. Malheur county is charged with $407.78, Lake $693 82, Tillamook $437.87 and Umatilla and Union each a few dollars. Marion county is said to owe $830. - The Baker City Democrat says: Cyras Sbumwsy arrived in this citb yesterday afternoon on a saddleless borse, bringing sews of a fearful accident, and one that may prove fatal, wbicb occurred about one o'clock in tbe afternoon at tbe Baker City Lime and Marble Co.'s works en Marble creek, twelve miles west of this city.

There were two arrests for drunkenness last night, and both this morning, on being interviewed ny the recorder, paid tbe amount of their fines, and left happy men, The city jail appears very lonesome with out occupants, and reporters are not satis- tied when around these places not to find anything with which to point a moral or adorn a tale. We learn from Col. Lovell that the loco motive for the portage road has been re ceived, and is being planed on the track. in a short time it will be hauling freight across tne portage. A slight encounter between two belliger? ent individuals, occurred on front street to-day.

Last evening, about 6 o'clock, Mr. J. L. Knebel was stabbed in the breast by a young man named Morton in a saloon in this city. They had been quarrelling for some time in an inner room, and finally came into the bar room, Morton with a knife in his hand and stnking at Knebel, who was dodging around a pool table. Morton made several lungea at Knebel, but missed him every time except the last, when the knife entered Knebel't breast, piercing the lungs. Mr. Howe, the night policeman, immediately arrested Morton and placed him in jail, and Knebel was taken to the hotel. It seems tbe quarrel resulted from a dispute about s debt of one dollar, which Morton claimed Knebel owed bim. The yonng man it snout i years oi age, and it a brother of Mr. Knebel' de ceased wife. Dr. Hollister is attending to the wounded man, and we learn from him to-day tbat the injury is quite serious, al though not necessarily fatal. From Tuesday's Daily. Mr. L.

The crops have been more abundant In Crook connty this year than for ten years, and the effect it to make grain cheaper than ever before known throughout that region. Oats are now telling at 30 cents, rye 60, wheat 75, barley 50 and a dull market at tbat.

Yesterday one of them took from hit ton a new riding whip and would not give it np until threatened that the sheriff would be called. He gives notice in another column that he it getting tired of Lo't sociability. We are informed by a resident of Dufur that oar lively correspondent "Keno" hat ohanged his versatile quill for a deadlier weapon and is now out in the mountains hunting bear. Our informant claimed to be very solicitous for hit welfare because his prowess hat not yet become esUblished, aod a doubt is generally experienced by the Dufur-a eople (so he tells as) whether Keno will get tbe bear or the bear get Keno. The lilacs and tome of the apple trees in Geo. Liebe't yard were in bloom last week. The intense heat of the big fire was in ver ity an artificial season for these trees, that accounting for the queer phenomenon. There it the remotest chance that they will die, for if the winter should be premature or unusually cold, tbe tap which it op will render the trees subject to the chilling change and kill them. The Bast Oregonian says: H. R, Sibley, ex-agent for the Union Pacific at Pendleton, eft Monday on No. 7 for The Dalles. Mr. ' Sibley was tendered a position immediately after hit retirement here as general agent, with headquarters at The Dallet, for the D. A. & P. Navigation Co.. a new carrvino- enterprise which- will operate boats on the -' Columbia river. He has gone dowo for an interview with the coin Dan v management. and will accept the position if it is vet vacant. .. D. W. Aldridge, of the Prineville Newt. returned home on the stage this morning.. Mr. Aldridge is a pioneer in journalism in ' tbat town, and has witnessed some pretty tongh usage in that field. At one time he was ordered by a select committee to leave town for publishing an adverse criticism on the action of a mob who hung two alleged horse-thieve, but the editor is still there and making the same spicy, readable paper a oi oia. xuere it an element of fact in M. Quad's creation of fancv the Anuma Kicker. Says an exchange: A judge in Hungarv gave a decision the otber day of which Solo mon himself might be proud. A Nazarine sect requested his honor to be allowed to crucify one of their number who had been called by heaven to save men. "I do not wish to interefere with your religions prac tices," said the judge, "but if your Messiah wishes to be crucified, let bim nrenare him. self for death. Bat remember if he does not rise again in three days I shall cause every one of you to be hanged." It ' is needless to add that tbe Messiah was ner. mitted to live. - It it very disappointing to be ditan- pointed. -So thinks a resident of fiiggt who came down to employ a Chinese cook and loft on the train without him lost night. Just before train time last night a China man armed with an injunction caused tbe arrest of another Celestial who had bor rowed from him $200. and just as he was preparing to depart for Biggs with his be fore-mentioned employer. "How are you going to get tbe money from him now?" was asked. "Keep him in lail till he pays me my money," be said. It it evident that Chinamen cannot grasn the intricacies of our law, bat being a peaceable class ot peo ple they seldom baye occasion to employ it. Payors the Washington Bide. The Portland chamber of commeroe bas decided to adopt the portage road from tbe dalles to a point opposite Celilo on the Washington side of the river. This route was adopted by a vote of 20 to 7. Portland it to take $300,000 in bonds. Lengthy reports- were made on all possible routes.' The following contains tbe fist of the re- , port of the committee, .at relates to the ob jections of the Norton -route: We do not consider the to-called Norton route, on the Oregon tide fessible, nor in view of the probable legal complication over the rights of way now controlled by the Union Pacific and the Columbia Rail way and Navigation Company, do we con sider the route paralleling tbe Union Pacific on the other tide, or the route suggested by Mr. Bogue in hit report, from a point near Three Mile Rapidt to Celilo, on the Wash ington side, as being proper for favorable recommendations. We find that by Mr. Bogne's estimate the lowest cost of this route would be $347,000, exclusive of ware houses,' wharf boa ta and steamboats. This estimate is made on a basis of $18,000 per mile, cost of construction, while tbe same engineer for a piece of road on the Oregon side which, we are informed, it not muoh, if any, more difficult of construction, etti- ' mates the cost at $25,000. Referring to the possible line on the Oregon side, suggested by Mr. Bogus, par alleling the Union Pacific, we find the esti mated cost by bit report it $400,000, exclu sive of boats and wharf boats, and in this estimate apparently the necessary tunnel at Cape Horn, referred ta in Mr. Bog a t re port, is omitted, which tannel would cost conservative engineer's estimate from $65,000 to $75,000, and again, while tbit line it estimated to coat $25,000 per mile. we find on investigation that the Union Pa- 60 line in the tame district cost from $50, 000 to $60,000 per mile. Do Animals Season? Many instances haye been cited to show that horses, dogs, cats or other animals are endowed with reasoning faculties, though it a generally accepted fact that they ave instinct in place of reason. It is not oar province to decide the question, but to record another singular happening wbicb would show that if brutes have not the power of pursuing a train ol tnougnt to a logical conclusion, their instinct stands them in at good stead and they attain the same object. In the early part of tbe summer an iron- gray cayuse was noticed by the ferryman. Mr. Johnson, loitering about the beach for three days, eating tbe garbage and all times watching the boat and looking at it intent ly aa it crossed and reorotsed the river, with its loads of other horses and wagons. One misty morning, just as the boat was about to start, the horse came running at fall speed and oleared the chain at a jump, and, running to the other end, stood with its nose over the opposite chain, pointed toward the Washington shore. Before the boat had fairly made good it landing the horse jumped the chain again and ran np the steep embankment and was never again seen by any of the boatmen. Whether the borse bad formerly bved in Washington aod had crossed in this manner before, or whether it had learned from ob servation, cannot be told, but the bora -crossed the river and paid no fare, and doubtless reached it destination in safety.
