Baker City Blade: There arrived in our

accompanied by the father-in-law of Mr.
Lawrence Kreen, direct from a small
town in Hungary. The children consist
of two girls, aged 17 and 19 respectively,

Once upon a Monday dreary she was
working weak and weary, down upon ber
marrows mopping, mopping up the
kitchen floor. While the mop went flip
ping, flapping, suddenly she heard a tap
ping, tapping at the kitchen door, " 'Tis
some visitor," she muttered, "tapping 'at
the kitchen door; gracious Peter, what a
bore." Up she jumped and nearly swear

it, grabbed a dolman np and hung it o'er

East Oregonian: R. N. Adams, while
rounding np cattle at tbe bead of McKay
ersek tbe other day, chanced to pass near a
shelve of rock and saw a human skull pro
truding. It grinned at him in a ghastly
and menacing manner, but Bob is not to be
frightened at fancies, and picked it up, tak
ing it to his camp for company.' The sknll
had evidently long remained in its rocky
resting place, for it bad all the appearances
of extreme age. There was an . opening at
tbe base and also in the forehead which
seemed to have been made by a bullet, and
perhaps some murder may have been com
mitted long years ago in tbe gloomy soli
tude of the mountains. But who the sknll
belonged to and bow he met his death will
always remain a mystery unless, perchance,
the spirit wanderer may apply to Bub for
tbe recovery of his property. It will be
cheerfully returned.
Several weeks ago there was trouble be
tween the faculty of the state university
at Seattle, Wash and a number ot stu
dents in regard to the rule requiring
pupils to drill. Among the students re
fusing to comply with this regulation
were Charles Kerns, of Portland, and F.
OHO Collins, of Vancouver. Twe.ve of
ihe students were suspended, and the re
sult of the trouble was that a mandamus
snit was brought by the students against
the faculty to compel it to allow them to
omit the military drill prescribed by the
rules of the university. The case came
before Judge Lichtenberger and tbe trial
lasted all day and up to midnight, arous
ing great interest. After hearing the tes
timony end the arguments, the court de
cided that the boys must drill or stay out
of school. The twelve students have
been suspended already for more than a
month. . ..
The spacious residence of Mr. J. O. Mack
was the scene of merriment last evening, a
surprise party being given to Miss Maybel
by a few of her friends. Tiddledywinks was
the principal feature of tbe evening, and as

more and more intense, and when the prizes
were awarded the wails rang with laughter.

of active existence a most estimable lady,
and her bereaved husband will receive the

The Oregon Pacific railroad has been
somewhat damaged by melting euows above
HaUtead. Near Henry Sussens, a large
tree was undermined, and slid down upon
the tra:k, carrying several rods of it into

deep at the end of the track. Settlers
anxiously hope to see the renewal of work
on the road this summer.

We understand that one day last week
tbe postoffice at Demons Springs was robbed
and an attempt made on the office at Monk
land. This is supposed to be the Work of
two tramps, who came to a neighbor's of
the postmaster and procured a meal of
victuals. A crowbar was being nsed to pry
open tbe window of the omce at Monkland,
when tbe appearance of a Winchester held
in the hands of the postmaster deterred the
robbers from fnrther operations.
There arrived in Pendleton early in Jan

a visitor says: "In the same house where

Brussels carpet, lace curtains, plush furni
ture, a picture of a priest and one of the
Virgin Mary, a Catholic epitome, a set of
Coopei's novels, a stuffed owl and a pea

Monday evening Kelling called at Heiertz
house to get the woman's trunk and was
met by the husband who ordered him to
leave. A blow, was given by Kelling in
Heiertz' face, which cut and bruised the
flesh badly, the striker at tbe time having
a koite in .bis hand. Kelling then ran. from
the bouse, but was arrested on complaint by
the injured man.
. Astoria Town Talk Fishermen and fish
dealers should bear in mind that the law is
now in full force and effect which prohibits
tbe catching and selling of salmon between
March 1st and April 10th. Last year the
commissioners did not enforce the law by
making arrest?, but merely advised all per
sons found fishing to desist. This season
the law will be carried out, end any person
who violates it will be puniehed. This law
is general in its application, aud includes
those who purchase, sell or transport fish,
as well as those who catch. Salmon caught
before March 1st and placed in tbe cold
storage can be sold without incurring liabil
ity. Any violation of this law will be
looked closely.after by the tiah commission
ers. Gen. Lish Applegate is a candidate for
circuit judge on the Republican ticket.
The Record, of Ashland, a Democratic
paper, says he would make a much better
judge than one wonld suppose from looking
at his overooat, his old straw hat and . his
Jacksonian home-made collar. Tbe Record
Bavs: There is only one danger abont hav
ing Lish on the bench. That would be to
the poor prisoners whom the district attor
ney wonld manage to send to the peniten
tiary. In passing sentence on these dumb
brutes the general would never get through
with his sentence. He would take them
back to the Roman Empire.the fall of Baby
lon, the mistakes of our first parents, and
if the prisoner's term was not gone by this
time he would bring him np to tbe time of
Henry the Eighth.

Every worker -at manufacturing in this

are reported. These cannot be traced to

publicity.
A gentle zephyr blew to-day, soft and
sweet ae the smile of spring. These breezes
stimulate the blood in one's yeins, and in
clinea one to think of fishing in mountain
streams or hunting game in the fastnesses
of the forest.
The prospecting fever is beginning to
show itself in some of our citizens, and tbe
lost cabin near Hood River and the rich
placers near tbe headwaters of Mosier creek
will be searched lor as soon as tne mouu
tains will admit of mining operations.
The manner in which buildings are being
erected in the burned district is indicative
of the snint of enterprise which still am
mates onr citizens. Notwithstanding the
fact that the city has suffered severely from
fires and floods dunng the past twenty
years she has always rebuilt better than be

Union-Journal: A shooting scrape occured
at Starbuck last Sunday in wbicb the lm
nese cook in the Pierson hotel and a white
waiter in the same house figured. The two
got into a dispute and the waiter in a fit of
anger struck the Chinaman a blow in the
face. The celestial, to retaliate, pulled his
pistol and shot at tbe waiter but missed his
aim. The wouid-be murderer was arrested
and bound over in the sum of $a00 to ap

Astorian: Fifty miles from Astoria, in the
upper Nehalem Valley, is an era ot 7000
acres, twelve sections ot land, T 4 N, R 4

for household purposes and steam. It can
be mined tor 75 cents a ton and carried
(were there a railroad from there here) at a
profit of $1 a ton; laid down it would cost
less than $1.75 here. We pay $7 and $S for
the same quality. Mature provided every,
thing but the railroad.
Several Portland hop men have a project
started for establishing very large hop yards
in Alaska. At present they are experiment
mg in growing hops in that far northern
clime, and if it is found that the plant will
properly mature the scheme is assured. Mr,
Bernheim, a local hop dealer, is.ut tho head
ot the company, and is confident that tbe
finest bops in tbe woild may be raised in
Southern Alaska. He has spent four yearB
in that conntry, and is perfectly acquainted
with its climate and soil. ay the last
steamer he sent np a number of fiesh plants.
and six varieties in all will be experimented
with to determine which is the hardiest.
An exchange says: A man went into the
postoffice .of a neighboring town recently
and told tbe postmaster that he desired
thirteen two cent stamps for a cent and a
quarter. The postmaster refused to give
them to him, stating that the cost would be
twenty-six cents. The man persisted in
getting his order, claiming that he could get
them at any office for that amount and even
threatened the government official if he
continued to refuse biui. Finally the post
master ordered him out, but the man, none
daunted, took a cent and a twenty-five cent
piece Iroui his pocket, and, laying tnem
down on the counter, he received his stamps
tor a cent and a quarter. The. postmaster
was a little discomfited fdr a while, but now
enjoys the joke as well as any one.
Two of the oldest residents of Tbe Dalles
were conversing abont old times in tne
Umatilla House this morning, and an in
terested crowd were listening to a rehearsal
of "auld laug syne" when flour in the Cari
boo mines was worth $1.50 a pound, etc.,
and when to wear a boiled shirt was certain
death and silk hats were unknown. These
two old-timers were Mr. Tim Stapleton and
Mr. P. Campbell, and both wished that
they could turo back time in her course,,
and that they were again mining on the bed

taking out three or four ounces a day. - Mr.

As no one else seems inclined to send
you items from this Dlace I shall try to
send a few lines now and then to let
old friends know that Moro still lives.
We have been blessed with a fine ram
and farmers are happy. A large number
ot gang plows have been sold,, and no

Merchants and tradesmen are doing
lively business. Several new buildings
are to be erected soon.
C. P. R. and his best girl went to Wasco
on business. Under a Cloud, in stormy
weather, Leslie married the man and wo
man together; let none bnt He who rules
the thunder sever that man and woman
asunder. We offer best wishes for the
future happiness of the young couple.
uur educational interests is tbe main
subject of discussion at present, although
it has not yet been debated in our literary
and debating society.
Being fond of literary exercises we took
pains to attend the literary society on
Saturday last, and were pleased with the
exercises with the exception of the paper,
which was very disappointing. Now, if
there is anything more disgusting than
rotten eggs it is rotten literatuie, and as a
literary society should be so conducted as
to elevate and impjove the young people,
we hope no rude jokes or unpleasant per
sonalities will be indulged in by the edi
tors of our literary paper in future.
Hoping to have some more interesting
uems next time, we are, yours truly,

and did not apprehend any serious accident,
until she missed her mother's form passing
the window. Thinking her mother had
gone on a visit to one of the neighbors, she
put on her hat and went out to ascertain
tbe facts. After walking some distance and
receiving no answer to repeated calls, she
became alarmed and sent word to her father
and husband, who were some distance away
in the field. A thorough search was made,
and the lifeless form of Mrs. Watkins was
found in the creek, her head and shoulders
out of the water. This was near an old
ford in the creek, which Mr. Watkins had
partially fenced with barbed wire to ki
cattle out of his enclosure. The cause of
her death is not definitely known, but some
suppose that the distress she complained of
for several days past was a premonition of
a fatal stroke of apoplexy. Mrs. Watkins
was a very highly respected .lady, aged
about 60 years, and had resided on Fifteen
Mile creek for many years. She leaves a
husband and four children three sons and
one daughter all grown, the oldest of
whom is Hon. Geo. Watkins of this city,
The family will have the sincere and heart
felt sympathy of this community in their
sad bereavement.
McZinley Club Meeting.
A business meeting of the Young Men's
McKinley club was held at their head-
quarters last evening. The principal sub
ject under discussion was the proposition
of the president, Mr. Huntington, to ex
tend invitation to the Hood River and
Oufur clubs to meet the McKinley club
sometime before the approaching prima
ries. He explained that he considered
this wise as it was important that, har
mony prevail in the convention and that
this might be lacking unless an under
standing was first reached regarding cer
tain matters. Mr. Hudson said that he
would venture to name these "certain
matters" only alluded to by the president,
and showed that "they" were "county
division" pure and simple, aud that Hood
River demanded a representation on the
legislative ticket which would be in favor
of creating Cascade county it seemed
to be the general opinion that an early
conference on this subject would be ad
visable and the secretary was instructed
to issue invitations for Saturday. March
12th, at 8 F. M. This action was taken
despite the objection of Mr. Farley, who
characterized the county division topic as
one to be avoided and a dangerous one lo
discuss. He assured the members pres
ent, as a property-holder in Hood River
valley, that the division movement was
not generally favored, but was strenuous
ly opposed outside of the town of Hood
Riyer, aud that the club should extend it
no assistance.
East Oregonian: Parties who were driving
a band of about eighty head of Robert
Shaw's cattle to Pendleton for shipment by
Kirk & Courtney to Sound markets, en
camped Saturday night in the neighborhood
ot Yoakum station. The cattle were placed
in a pasture and got out in some manner.
There was a break in the railroad fence,
and through this the animals went, hud
dling together on the track, near a small
trestle. The band was struck by the night's
west-bound passenger train and frightful
carnage ensued. Nine bead were killed
outright and seven more so badly crippled
tbat they were rendered worthless. One
steei was rolled across the trestle and
ground completely to pieces. Those who
were at the scene after the occurrence are
at a loss to understand how- the train es
caped being derailed, in which event a dis
astrous accident would haye occurred.

were two of them, about the time they were
saddling, preparatory to leaving the ranch..
Both then rode the stallion to Castle Rock,
where he was turned loose, the men cross
ing over to tbe Washington side in a boat
which belonged to Mr. Teeters; This gen
tleman found his boat some miles below
Castle Rock, apd took away tbe oars, pre
venting them using it further. Although
the culprits were not in sight, it is supposed
that they were hidden in the hills, awaiting
the shades of night to proceed further. It
is presumed that they came back to tbe
boat and finding it oarless, struck ont on
foot. It is pretty certain that Mr. Swag
gart's stallion is on the range in northern
Morrow, and will be recovered at an early
date. However, Mr. Ghristenson mourns
the loss of a saddle, which is not likely to
be found.
Unfair Criticism.
The Dalles, March 2, 1892.
Editor TiMsa-MorNTAiKiHa:
I am not a member of ti e Mic-Mac club,
but I believe your criticism of the perform
ance Monday night wis- too seyere on ama
teurs. Knowing you - personally for many
years, I cannot believe ou entertain such
unkind opinion of our local talent.
. . A Feiekd.,.
We did not write any items for the paper
Tuesday, having only returned from . Port
land at noon of that day, and did not know
the item was published until the paper had
been printed and circulated. . Towards the
members of the club we entertain tbe most
kindly feelings, some of whom are personal
friends, and we are sorry the no kind criti
cism appeared in Tuesday's issue. Editor.
An Explanation.
The Dalles, Or., March 3, 1892.
Editor Tms-MouNTAiKEin:
Referring to the report of the meeting of
the McKinley club contained in yesterday's
issue, permit me to make a correction in
reference to the proposed conference with
the Hood River and Dufur clubs. Know
ing that you were not personally present, I
assume tbat the misunderstanding as to the
action of the clnb was due to the fact that
you relied upon information from others.
The facts as to the matter were as follows:
The president of tbe club suggested that he
was informed that a conference of the Re
publican clubs of Hood River and Dufur
with tbis club was desired and laid tbe
matter before the club. A motion was
made that those clubs be invited to a con
ference, and was nnanimously carried; there
was nothing said in opposition to extending
this invitation. Mr. Farley made a motion
that tbe band be employed and arrange
ments made to giye the visiting clubs a
hearty welcome, and the arrangements for
the meeting were referred t0 the executive
committee. Neither Mr. Farley nor any
one else discussed or opposed the motion to
extend this invitation. ' .
B.'S. Huntington,
" President.
Fatal Accidenti
The Scio Press gives the following ac
count of a fatal accident near that city.
Word was brought to this city on Monday
night of a -most distressing accident which
had occurred that evening at about 8 r. it.
on Crabtree near Cyrus & Pitchford's saw
mil). Branch Tucker, the unfortunate vic
tim, was clearing up a farm, and as a part
of it is heavily timbered he, as is frequently
done, was felling the trees by burning tbem
down. On Monday he had fired a large
number of trees, one of which was near his
barn. About 8 o'clock, feeling somewhat
anxious as to where this tree would fall,
Mr. Tucker and his little son, with lantern
in hand, went out to hasten its falling by
chopping. W'ben passing near it they
heard the preliminary cracking indicating
that the tree had commenced to fall. Both
father aud son attempted to run backwards
towards the barn, but the tree was so near
ly fallen that both were caught and crubhed
to the ground by the limbs, the father be
ing about six or eight feet from the body of
the tree, while the son was nearer, but,
strange to say, tbe latter was not injured
seriously, while tbe father was struck on
the back of tbe neck and shoulder by a
limb. Tbe unfortunatt man died Tuesday
eyening.
Serious but Humorous.
The Eugene Guard gets off tbe following
funny, but true incidents: Saturday even
ing, shortly before dark, Levi Levere left
Eugene for his borne on tbe river road three
miles below Eugene. After reaching the
road at the Blair place he took the path on
the inside of the fence where the walking
was better. Levere had gone but a short
distance after leaving the railroad when a
man with . a mask over bis lace, and coat
collar turned up, stepped ont from the
brush and. presenting a shot gun told him
to throw up his bands, as he wanted bis
money. Levere bad $25 on his person, but
did not lose his presence of mind, and re
plied that he could not get any money from
a "poor old tramp." He was then re
quested to yield his chewing tobacco, which
he quickly did, then was told to go on. The
same evening a Dree Methodist minister
was made to throw up his hands at the
same place, and bis money was demanded.
He informed the law breaker that he was a
minister and had none. The robber, from
his actions, an amateur, did not doubt the
word of the clergical gentleman and replied:
"Go cn. If you are a preacher you haven't
got any money.

Drive Whist.
The Penipt whist club held their meeting
Wednesday evening at the .residence of
Mrs. G. C. Blakeley, and a very interesting
time was spent. Partners (were chosen by
matching quotations. At a seasonable hour
a bountiful refection, consisting of ice
cream and cike, was served, of which ail
partook with a relish. The score cards
were very unique, and on the last page of
the four-page folder was the following acros
tic poem by a member of the clnb:
Progressive whist fa the rule of the clnb;
Each must plav well er else fret a slud.
Not girl whist," a the gentlemen say;
It's scientific the way we play.
Points without number we're all sure to make
Tricks "out ot BiKht," without a mistake.
When at the table our places we take.
Hark, what sounds tbe silence break:
"In it this time, partner," is beard;
"Such a hand, upon my word!" . '
"Trumped attain, I say it's absurd!"
Countinir the points when the playing is over,
'Lef', is the verdict, and but twe are in clover.
Unsurpassed are the oysters at Cram's;
Better they taste when we go down in jams.
Panic Threatened.
London, March 3. The action of the
miners in announcing that tbey would go
on a strike on the 12th inst., and tbe rapid
rise in tbe price ot coal following that
announcement, is leading' to a panic.
Ibe cold weather, wbicb bas led to tbe
consumption of a larger quantity of coal
than usual, continues to prevail, and tbis
fact bas caused tbe alarm to become
greater than otherwise would have been
the case. No one knows where the
advancing prices will stop, and conse
quently everybody is anxious to lay
in enough coal now to carry them oyer
a two weeks' strike. Merchants declare.
if the present demand continues, stock
will last only for two days. The news
papers all publish articles in reference to i
the situation, and urge the public not to
become panic-stricken, as tne prices can
not make much further advance, owing
to foreign competition.

A TERRIBLE FALL.
Leonard (Tombs, an Albany youth, went
to the Pacific wire factory in that city the
other morning and built a fire under the
boiler as was his custom. It did not burn
fast enough, however, so he picked np a
five-gallon can full of benzine and punching
a bole in the end of the can opened tbe
furnace door and gave the benzine a splash
on the fire. The burning oil dashed back
into his face and on tbe floor. In an instant
all was on fire. Fortunately his brother
Frank was standing near, who hurriedly
secured a wool mattress and wrapping it
around the burning boy extinguished the
flames. He then threw the mattress on the
floor and pnt ont the fire, which by tbis
time was getting quite a start. Leonard
wasjbadly burned abont his face, neck and
hands.and had he been alone he wonld have
undoubtedly been bnrned to death and the
building destroyed.
East Oregonian: Patrick Boland, Union
Pacific section boss at Barnhart's, boarded
train No. 7 at Pendleton Snnday to go down
to that station. He failed to tell the con
ductor, however, and the train didn't stop.
At a point abont seven miles below he was
ont on the car platform, "seeing the conn
try," be says, when a sudden jerk threw
him off. The train was running at a speed
of about thirty miles an hour, and when
Boland strnck ground be thonght he had
been thrown by a Kansas cyclone. He had
bad hold of the railing with his right hand,
and bis shoulder was badly wrenched. His
left knee was also severely hurt. He laid
near the track until seen by the engineer of
a passing freight, who picked him np and
brought him to Pendleton. Boland feels
very sore, bnt will recover in due time from
the effects of his accideut.
The Indians on the Umatilla reservation
will be allowed to assume the privileges of
citizenship, including suffrage, immediately
upon approval by the department of the
allotment of their lands. Politicians of
both parties in tbat section are very anxious
that 'this approval shall come before the
Jnne election, bnt the all important ques
tion, "How are tbey going to vote?" is not
yet answered.' Some seem to think that
money will bny the Indian vote, but the
Umatillas have some reputation for mde
p endence, and it wonld not be surprising to
see them maintain it when
izenship
elevated to citi-
Sentinel: Several hacks left Goldendale
Tuesday loaded with prospectors and pro
visions for the Orofino mines. Several locat
ors have returned from the mines and report
the indications for placer mining good and
in case the test which will be made by the
party now there proves satisfactory we can
expect a city there next week. We have
seen specimens of gold separated by use of
a rocker. The yield was abont one dollar
for a onbio yard of diit at the surface. Ow
ing to the loose light character of the dirt
the yield will likely be very much greater
at bed rock. That there is gold in this min
iug belt there can be no donbt, bnt whether
in quantities sufficient to pay for working
remains to be seen.
'Tis to yeu, mothers and daughters,
