Statesman: Saturday morning an aged woman named Welch arrived in Walla Walla from Nebraska looking for her son, Patrick Welch, aged 25 years, who came to this place about a year ago., Up on her arrival Mrs.- Welch was informed that her boy was in the-penitentiary serv ing a three years' term, but upon the lady going to the penitentiary she learned thai the report was false.. She states that he left home about four years ago and went to Yakima county when he herded sheep for a time. . .Afterwards he went to Alaska and the last time she heard of him he was in VV aria 'Walla. ; She had not re ceived a letter from him for a year and she concluded she would come to the state of Washington and see if she could flud him. ing down and making tbe air tremble with their screams and wing flappings.

East Oregonian: At the request of Judge Clifford Judge Fee has ordered a stay of execution in. the Zorn case, pending the decision of the supreme court-upon the appeal taken to that body. Zorn's neck is thus saved for a time at least, which is doubtless gratifying to tne prisoner, as the necktie party was on the programme for Friday, March 25tb. It the supreme court affirms the verdict in the lower cour: Zoru will be resentenced at the next term of the circuit court in Umatilla county, which convenes June 6th next. This will postpone the hanging' until sometime in July. If the supreme court decides the appeal to be well grounded, the case will come up at the June term for a new trial. - An exciting runaway occurred at the East End yesterday afternoon. One of the cayuses purchased from the Sharp estate was harnessed in a cart, and the owner mounted the seat in full confidence that the animal could easily be driven; but greatly to bis injury be was disap pointed, for the horse attempted to sit down on bis hindquarters, and then changed the programme hy trying a somersault, landing, the dnvir some dis tance from the cart, bruising bim some what, but not seriously injuring bim. The cay qs being freed trom the encum brance made a bee line for Sharp's iaim on Three Mile; but was overtaken about two miles distant and brought back to town. As expected, the defeated "boss" 'feels excessively sore over his defeat last Sat urday, and his hired lackey vents his master's venom in a low,; vulgar para graph in last evening's riug organ, which is only remarkable for the entire absence of truth and decent language, so essential to respectable journalism. The "boss" did not possess sufficient acumen and popularity to carry his own precinct, and bis benchman, who has been a standing candidate for any office in the gift of the people for the past feu years, suffering Iroiu the same defeat, howled like a wnipped dog in the issue of last night's ring organ. The fellow is such a renowned preyarictor,that it is nounecessary to con tradict his lalse accusations, no more iban it is to kick every dirty cur that barks at a gentleman on the streets.

' A new lodge of Knights of Pythias will be instituted at Wasco, Sherman county, this evening. A large delegation of mem hers of the order from this city, ilood Juver and Goldendale left on tbe noon train to take part in tbe exercises. . It would seem as though "the Bosse man from The Dalles has also been rebuked over in Sherman county. A private letter, re ceived in this city from there, says the Far ley ticket was badly defeated and that the little job to fix the state delegation died "anorum . Attention is directed to the new adver tisement of Miss Anna Peter & Co. regard ing the arrival. ot an entire new lot of milli nery novelties from the east. Those who are contemplative a new bonnet tor faster should call at the above place and see for themselves what is neatly stylish yet cheap. before making their purchases. Miss Gertrude L. Meyer baa received the appointment of teacher in one of the public schools of Portland and leaves in a few days to enter upon the discharge of. her duties. Tne young lady isvwell and favorably known in musical and social circles in this city and litr departure will be a source of sincere regret to many warm friends. , ' Mr. CharlesBascomb, an old resident of this city, who had the misfortune to suffer a severe paralytic stroke last fall,' left tor the east last uiht to visit his brother. Al though sorely .afflicted for many months Mr. Bascomb bore np bravely under his mi-fortunes and had many friends who stood by bim in bis hour of need and trouble. John L. Sullivan seems to be somewhat riled at the manner be is spoken of by the newspaper reporters and threatens venge ance.

' . W. D. Maddern, the owner of a timber claim id tbe Cascade mountains west of Mount Hood, has been missing for several days and -fears aro .entertained that he has become lost in the timber. The employes of tbe Columbia River Lumbering Compa ny have 'raised a fund to pay tbe expeuses of a searching party, and Joseph Bates has started out in the hope of finding the miss ing man. it is thought possible that Mad dern may have perished in tbe recent snow Btorm. Salem Journal: Word has been received that Mrs. L. E. Elgin, who resides about eight miles south of the city, was stricken with paralysis last Saturday about nocn, completely disabling her left side. Mrs. &!gin is 7iJ years ot age, naving uvea in Oregon 40 years, aud her friends do not look for her recovery, although she may liDger for some time. These facts have been ob tained from ber son, J. H. Elgin, of this city, who says she has not been conscious since the accident. The Democratic club in this city. has pre empted a section of the west end of the Cos mopolitan hotel building and figuratively speaking nailed its banner en the outer wall. - "Boss Schutz with tbe assistance ot a number of Jetfersonian patriots tried to swing the banner across the street but the emblem of Democracy refused to occupy so conspicuous a position and broke loose from its bonds. In its present position it will soon be bidden from sight when the sur rounding trees commence to leaf. . Harrison C.

Mr. Coioni was 78 years of age at the time of hi3 death and comes from a long-lived family having brother still living six years bis senior, and his only son is hale aod hearty at 54. Tbe body arrived at Hood Riyer this after noon by the steamboat Regulator. For some time past the leading . members of the Presbyterian church have been seek ing for a suitable location on tbe Pacific coast for the establishment oi a Boys High School, and it now seems probable that Hood River, in this county, win oe tne favored place. Negotiations are now well under way with such end in view and cer tainly no more advantageous locality could be chosen. It ia understood that the people of that town have agreed to giye the neces sary grounds for the use ot such a school and that parties who have visited tbe place are highly.gratified with the many advan tages that can be secured by the establish ment of the proposed institution of learning at Hood River. untqiia'Itd in Eistern Oregon as w ol and in u it. d producers c.nnbiufd. .

Eistern Oregon Republican: Martin Mur ray, who has been in Union for several months, was found near the railroad track north of the depot Friday morning in a dy ing condition. Murray was a gambler aud had been drinking very bard for a long time. It seems that he had started for La Grande on foot taking a bottle ot whisky with him and, becoming intoxicated, had laid down by the roaa wbere he remained all night, and as it was quite cold he bad b come severely chilled. He was taken to the depot hotel but died a few minutes after wards. Gract County News: A short time ago a young man named JNewton came into pos session ot a check lor S3, and soon after wards the same check called for $80. Royal baking powder was not to blame tor the raise, and a warrant was sworn out in Jus. tice Snow's court at Dayville for the arrest of .Newton, who. on the strength of possess ing this check, had been able to borrow some money and skip. Abe Brown, dep. uty sheriff, started out after him, aud Tues day night be arrived in town with his prisoner, whom he captured at Granite. The preliminary examination will be held at 1 Uayyille. it seems to be the general impression among the steamboat men that there will be no great high water in the Columbia this year. Tbe warm weather for the past few days has caused tbe snow in the mountains to commence melting gradually, and by the time the real warm weather sets in there will be but little snow left. Portland Dis patch. The highest water in the Columbia river always occurs in the latter part of June, and the "freshet," as it is commonly called, cannot be expected for some weeks. There is plenty snow in the mountains to produce high water at the proper time. Mr. Farley has been on an extended tour through tbe VVamic, Uak Urove and Wapm itia country, aud Mr. Hudson has been vis iting other precincts tioth, presumably, in search of proxies. As these parties were defeated on last Saturday, the delegates elected will refuse them their proxies, as tbe people. would have voted to return them for tbe convention it they bad been consid ered suitable candidates. Every delegate will make it a point to be in personal at' tendance at the convention as it is tho: onghly understood that anti-bossism votes elected them. . The delegates from the country as they arriye seem to be of the same stripe as those elected in this city, and will brook no interference with their determination to nominate what they con aider a strong ticket and one that will be elected from top to bottom. W. W. Statesman: Early Sunday morn ing a row occurred in Oakesdale, which ter minated fatally for one of the parties. Tbe trouble arose iu McClure's saloon between Skook" Lloyd and Alva Stout, two well known characters, which eLded ill Lloyd shooting at Stout. The city marshal ar rested Lloyd, but just as he was being put in lail, Alexander loung, who had followed from tbe saloon, opened tire on the marshal with two revolvers. A general fusilade eu sued, resulting in Young being shot three times, twice in tne breast and once in tbe arm. Young then tried to run, but fell on the railroad tra?k, where he was found later. He was taken to a physician s office and one ball extracted, bat the others could not be found. Ia order to release Lloyd, he was taken in the afternoon to the county jail at .Colfax. .

Dufur, March 24, 1892. Editor Times-Mol'Ntainkrr: Will you be so kind as to allow me to in sert a few lines in your valuable paper in reference to an article I was reading in your issue of March 12th, in regard to free trade by those men who are "know-it-alls." As I lived in England for fifty years before coming to this country I know a little about it myself. I have seen the working of it and the results of it ever since the begin ning, which has been tbe means ot mean ing up thousands of respectable homes and taking the bread oat of the mouths of thousands of families, and likewise tilling the poorbouses to overflowing with paupers, so that in many instances they had to be sent to other county poorbouses as they could not make room for them in their own. A ereat many were sent to the town where I lived, which was Banbury, Oxfordshire, England, and bad to be paid for by othel counties. Inow these "know-alla try to make out that the riches of England are ac cumulated bv free trade, which lets them out that they know nothing about it. Iu a short time I shall be in The Dalles when I will deliver an address on the free. trade question and other political matters, and then I shall be open to discuss the question with any one that -wishes to do so; but, in tbe meantime, I will adyise the peo pie of Tbe Dalles to beware of wolves prowling about in sheep's clothing, as they may be as unscrupulous in their actions as they are in the false statements they have been making. The Shooting at Antelope. Last Saturday evening a shooting affray occurred at Antelope, in which Ed. Glisan was shot through the body by W. F. Kel- say, producing a very serious, if not fatal wound. Glisan has been refused Iiqnor by the saloons by reason of his habits of intox ication, but manages to procure a supply by procuring friends to purchase whisky by the bottle. On this occasion meeting with Kalsay he offered bim bis bottle, and in drinking Kelsay accidentally blew some in Glisan face, which caused bim to become . angry. Load words followed and Gheao appeared as though he was drawing bis pistol when Kelsay shot him. The char acter of Kelsay, as far as we can learn, is excellent, he being a peaceable, industrious citizen, and not quarrelsome except when Buffering great provocation. Glisan is the in n who shot and killed Pratt at Antelope a few years ago aud was acquitted by a trial jury in this city. Since that time he has led a wayward life, and bis wife has warned all saloons against furnishing him 'liquor. It is not known whether the wound will prove fatal or not; bat hopes are entertained of his recovery. Ou Tuesday Kelsay had a preliminary ex amination before the justice of the peace and was released from custody on giving bonds in the earn or $500. The wounded man at last account was improving and ia expected to recover. Aurora Lodge, Bo. 54, K. From Friday's Daily. This lodge of the Knights of Pythias was organized at Wasco in Sbermsn county last night and this morning, consisting of the best citizens of the town, and among them were the clerk, sheriff, attorney, Methodist minister, editor of the News, the physician, drugeist and other leading men in the com munity twenty-three in all. There were present from Tbe Dalles Knights C. L. Phillips, D. D. G. C, instituting officer. Past Chancellors T. A. Hudson, W. Butler, John Michell, W. H. Wilson, C. E. Haight, Jos. Berger; D. W. Vause and Brothers L. Rorden, H. Patterson, S. G. Campbell, W. Barnett, G. Easterbrook, R. R. Hinton, W. S. Cram. L. E. Crow.F. Falkner, Frank Menefee, W Griffin and Henry Kuck, of Friendship, No. 9, of this city. Past Chan cellors Cradlebaugh and Coe, of Waucoma, at Hood River, and fourteen members, whose names we could not learn, of Friend ship, No. 37, of Goldendale, Wash. After the two rauks of Page and Esquire, those present sat down to one of the most sumpt uous refections ever furnished guests in the state of Oregon. Everything that could temp: the appetite in the shape of chicken, ham and cold meats, together with fruits and pastry, were on the table, aud these were furnished the visiting Knights by the ladies of Wasco. The walls of the dining room were properly embellished by Pythian motoes, and at each plate was a souvenir in the form of a battle-axe, tastefully tied in different colored ' ribbons, and on one side printed in bronze, "Aurora Lodge, K. of P., March 21, 1892." After the Knights bad satisfied the inner man, cigars were passed by th ladies, and tbasts received responses. These were given in pleasant aud apprecative language, by Knights Michell, Brooks, Wilson, Cradlebaugh, But ler, Phillips, Brock and Esquire D?nntson One declared that it he were not a married man he would pursue the lady who made tbe lemon pie with the same ardor that the prince did Cindrella of the glass slipper; an other that the souvenir would be treasured by him for years, while still another stated that he was not speaking from the fullness of tbe heart but of the stomach, and "some day he'd wander back again," and Bro. Cradlebaugh's only regret was that he wasn't twins so that he could fill up again. Tbe most agreeable feelings prevailed, and all seemed to enjoy themselves. Aurora, No. 54, starts in its Pythian career with tbe brightest prospects, and this ins titation will soon be the pride of the flourishing town of Wasco. We extend a cordial invitation to all to examine our stock th and get prices before purchasing elsewhere. , . MISS ANNA PETER & CO., THE US Second St., THE DALLES, OH.

". - ' .' Sentinel: A lively ghost story has of late been going the rounds of our quiet little city. It seems some one departed from tbe troubles of this life has failed to find rest, and of late haa been taking nocturnal walks through the streets of Goldendale. It was seen about a week ago by some boys, but the boys did not pursue it to find out what it wanted. A short time after it pursued one of our doctors along the street about a block, but when the doctor turned round tbe apparition fled to the old adobe build ing, wbich has been nnoccupied for a long time. . The doctor not thinking the matter of much importance went on home. The next time it was seen was by a young man who saw it across an allev. but the crhont passed out of sight. The ghost succeeded A lWaVS trlkfiS R I AtfiriTllTI fiH StflTlrt in f riirhf uninrr turn InrliAa nn lnafr Kafiiri'AV I night.
