While 3400 might be all that the building was really. wortb, the refusal ot the State In surance company to pay face of the pol icy, after . accepting premiums on the same, is a step detrimental in its effect.

Tompkins was violently insane, and Alter trying to get tbe best of every one connected with tbe jail attempted to drown himself in bis cell under the water ' lancet, by turning it on and holding his bead under it. He only succeeded, bow ever, in thoroughly saturating bis cloth ing. ' Tompkins became so violent that it was necessary to strap him down, and his insane strength was so great that, al though a man of ordinary size, it took three men to fasten-him. He will be taken to Medical Lake. ' Albany Herald: All day Sunday a fear ful wind and rain 1 storm prevailed . throughout this section, and generally in ' the valley as far as . beard - from. Fruit trees weie lashed about and many bios -soms whipped off, but not materially in jured as plenty were lett to insure all the f ruit tbe trees can stand under. Some fences and windmills were overturned, and other like mishaps transpired, but no ' material damage has yef come to light. The Allmoy steel bridge sticking out over the Willamette river 300 feet was given a severe test, but it was not injured particle. It is a magnificent structure, And tbe storm served to illustrate its effectiveness. Major G. W. Ingalls, yesterday, while riding to Mr. Splawn's residence, who lives a short distance beyond Rockland, was thrown from the horse and violently kicked in the right limb. He had dis mounted to open a gate, and in remount ing bad placed his left foot in the stirrup ' when the horse jumped to one side and finally threw Mr. Ingalls to the ground and kicked him. He was unconscious for some hours;- but managed to walk to a house and his injuries received atten tion. Last eyening he was brought to town, taken to his room in the Chapman block aod Dr. Logan dressed his wounds. On the midnight train his wife arrived ifrom "Portland, and, being a doctor of medicine, will take charge of him. . rom Thursday"! Dally. Spnng-like weather yesterday and to-day pool and rainy.

One solitary hobo found bis way into the city jail last eyening, and furnished a little business for the recoider this morning. He was ordered to leave the city, which he did for the benefit of the community. - Moody's Warehouse is well crowded with freight for points in Grant and Crook coun ties. With railroads from The Dalles to points in the interior this city would soon be the first in commercial importance in the inland .umpire. Bandon Recorder: Capn. J. Parker was in town Saturday. From him we gathered the information, what the detention of tbe schooner fleet at this place means, which is a less of about 15,000 to the Conmlle sec. tion of the county. Two months loss each year would keep wcrk going on the jetty till completed. We find on our exchange table to-day a copy of The Morning Emruirer, Vol. I. No. 1, printed at Baker City, Oregon. Its ob ject appears to be to furnish a good, live, local paper in that enterprising town, with the sole object of developing tue resources of that portion of the northwest. We bid it a hearty welcome to the field of journal ism, and hope financially it may realize its most sanguine expectations. Heppner Gazette: Messrs. Bucket an-1 Bsymer, of tbe Eight Mile section, were in to-day, and complain much of the backward spring, lboneh not cold, it?is decidedly chilly, winter overcoats being in season. On tho high ridges near the mountains, as well as on the Blues pioper, a mantle of snow is seen, which baa been tailing tor several days past, when the lower regions oi bunch grass were getting 'rain. The crop outlook was never better. A word in time saves nine. There is go ing to be tron ble and delay in the Austra lian voting. Every worker at the polls ought to have copies of the tickets and the names numbered' so that when a man, who don t know better, is going to vote, he can use the copy as a memoranda and make bis mark opposite the number according to copy otherwise there will be mJhy a ticket lust for-marking the wrong name. Chances at4 favorable for the establish ment of the proposed telephone line from Pendleton to Long Creek and Canyon City, and it is probable that work will begin yery soon tms spring. Aa soon as roads are easily passable, W. D. Fletcher, manager of the local exchange, and others interested, will go over the route and perfect arrange ments. The building of the line will be a great advantage to Pendleton and to places all along the route. Albany Herald: Saiuuel Mcllree, a resi dent of Linn county, Who was a delegate to the kite Republican convention at Portland, and in attendance there on tW first day, disappeared on the 6th of April in Portland. He had started from his sister's, tirs. Campbell, at 305 Sontb Front street, to go the . East side of the river, since which time no trace of him can be found. Any one learning of his whereabouts will confer a great favor by writing to Walter Mcllree, Peoria, Linn county. Oregon. He was a member of McPherson Post No. 5( G. A. R. in this city. Our energetic brethren of our sister State keep on tbe move and allow no grass to grow under their feet A legitimate, rail- ad enterprise was born in North Yakima Wednesday, known as the Yakima, Natchez & Eastern Railroad Company.

The Uemocrat, of Biker City, is a free- wocl-and-a-yard-wide- Democratic organ, and is also in favor of free silver. As its Democratic allies in congress tabled the free' silver bill, we presume the following was published for their benefit: "Baker county for tree coinage of silver. It is a mining section and this great industry is not to be neglected. ' The silver mines of this section are extensive and the people do not propose to see them lay idle and -Jack development jnst because the eastern gold sharks so de sire if they can prevent it." . ,' ' Mr. Crossman, of La Crose, Wis., who is visiting Mr, A. Ullrich in this city, has found an uncle in Mr. I. N. Sargent. Sev eral years ago Mr. Sargent had a sister who went, to La Crosse from Mineral Point, where the family resided. She married in that city, and about ten years ago died, leaving a family of grown-up children. - Mr. Sargent had not heard of any members of the family until a few days ago, when, in conversation with Mr. Grossman, and mak ing inquiries about his sister's children,, as certained the fact that, Mr. Crossman was her son. ' ' , Tbe ladies of the Good Intent society were entertained at the cozy borne of Mrs. Randall yesterday afternoon, and the meet ing was one of the most enjoyable yet held. The ladies, as is usual with their sex, were all enthusiasm and busy in their efforts to devise the best means possible for the carry ing on of their ' noble work, but were none the less enthusiastic when Mrs. Randall an nounced that a lunch was the next thine on the programme, and still with good inteot ordered that the business before the meet ing be raid on the table till a more conveni ent season, and did as much justice to the matter under the head of "Good of the Or der," aa any of their weaker brothers in the church would have' done. The Demorest medal contest-in the court house last' evening attracted a large audi ence, and the exercises were of especial in terest. Those who contended for the prizo showed careful training, and a knowledge of the rules of elocution commendable in persons so young. The medal was awarded to Mies Georgia Sampson, who declaimed in good voice and with graceful gestures; but while we do not desire to criticise tbe deci sion of the judges, we believe the effort of Miss Daisy Allaway and others are worthy of espeoial mention. In the case of Miss Allaway her gestures were nearly perfect, articulation and modulation of voice very correct, and her conception of the piece dis played discrimination and careful study. Tbe singing by the quartette and by Charlie Heppner of Wearing the Bonnie Blue were very enjoyable, and were especial features awarded sixty days in the county jail, and the other two ordered to leave the country. E. O.: T. A. Benedict and C. A. Keys, who have been buying sheep for Mr. South. worth, of Nebraska, left town with their outfit this morning. They will gather up 8000 head- in the Heppner neighborhood and on Butter creek, and start east on their drive. Services will begin at the court house next Monday evening, and continue daily lor about two weeks. These services will be under charge of Elders J. W. Jenkins, of Rockland, Wash., and -T. T. Eshelman, of North Yakima. Wash., of the Christian denomination. All are cordially invited to attend. Umatilla shceo owners are reported as jubilant over the prosoects.

Mr. Remington, living in East Dalles, re ceived a severe iniurv this morning by tbe careless handling of a pistol by his grand- son. Ihe coy was close to the bouse at tempting to shoot a squirrel, and the grand. father was standing in the house looking at bim through a window. In trying to re. move a cap from the pistol, the boy acoi dentally discharged the firearm, the ball passing through an inch board and through Mr. Remington's thigh, inflicting a flesh wound, but causing no fracture of the bone, Dr. Eshelman was called, dressed the ioju ries, and the old gentleman is resting easily. W. W. Statesman: William Maskelyne was locked up in the couuty jail this after noon and will be examined as to his sanity in the superior court Thursday morning. He was released from the asylum at Medi cal lake last Friday week and returned home the Sunday following. For a few days he appeared to bo completely cured and was about the streets chatting with his friends. , Cm Monday of this week he began showing stuns of insanity again, and lui agined he had a large band of hue. race horses. Wednesday he became very violent and his wife sent for Sheriff McFarlaud to arrest him, which tbe oliicer did and locked him up in the county Jul. A progressive whist party was held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. S. Li xoung last eyening, and a very agreeable time was spent.

The colt, sired by Oneco, starved some time ago and the mare is reduced to skin and bones the hair is nearly all off her skin. Wheu put on the scales this morning she barely tipped the beam at 710 pounds. There Were five of these animals, three belonging to Mr. Hol- man, of Albany, who was paying $15 a month to have them pastured and put up each night and fed some grain. .People will watch the prosecutions in ' this case with great interest." , ODD FELLOW DAT.

Our reporter paid his usual visit to tbe clerk's office this morning, and found the gentlemanly deputies enjoying themselves in copying old documents; but not a deed had been filed, acd no licenses granted. Five Salem hoodlums went to the borne of Aunt Rachel Brooks, a colored woman living just below Salem, and confiscated some of her yellow-legged chickens. Being tracked down, one of them turned state's evidence. Result, two of them were A Pure Baking Powder. A baking powder that can be depended upon to be free from lime and alum is a de sideratum in these days of adulterated food. so lar as can be judged from tbe omciai re ports, the "Royal" seems to be the only one yet found by chemical analysis to be entire ly without one or the other of these sub stances, and absolutely pure. This, it is shown, results from the exclusive use by its manufacturers of cream of tartar specially renned and prepared by patent processes which totally remove the tartrate of lime and other impurities. - Tbe cost of this chemically pure cream of tartar is much greater toan any other, and it is used in no baking powder except tbe "Royal," the manufacturers of which control tbe patents under which it is refined. - Dr. Edward G. Love, formerly analytical chemist for the U. . S. government, who made the analyses for the New York state board of health iii their investigation of baking powder, and whose intimate knowl edge of the iugredients of- all those sold in this market enables him to speak authorit atively, says of the purity, wholesomeuess and superior quality of the "Royal:" "I find the Royal Baking Powder com posed of pure and- wholesome ingredients. It is a cream of tartar powder, and does not contain either alum or phosphates, or other injurious substance." . : Prof. Love's tests, and the recent official testa by both the United States and Cana dian governments, show the Royal Baking Powder' to be superior to all others in strength and leavening power. It is .not only the most economical in use, but makes the purest, finest flavored and most whole some food.

Suipes, Seattle, Wash. wky-ap23430 ' , Tuesday was very windy and unpleas ant: but notwithstanding this luct when the whistle of the Regulator blew at 7 o'clock the number of people who thronged on board gave unmistakable evidence that the Odd Fellows' picnic at Hood River wonld be extensively patron ized. The trip down the river, with the green hillsides of Oregon aod Washing ton hugging the magnificent stream, was very enjoyable, even if the wind blew a hurricane and the temperature was too cool to be agreeable. The boat made the landing at Hood River at about 9 o'clock, and carriages came to convey the people to the town. On the arrival of the west bound train at 11 o'clock, a large number of Odd Fellows from Cascade Locks and other points joined the crowd to partici pate in the ceremonies. At the hour named in the programme, the marshal of the day, Bro. E. Schutz, of Columbia Lodge, No. 5, assisted by Bro. E. C. Wiley, of Cascade Lodgef formed the procession in the following order: Members of Columbia Lodge, No. 5; Jiidgely Lodge. No. 71; Cascade Lodge, No. 101; Moro, No. 113; Idlewilde Lodge, No. 107, and a large concourse of citizens in carriages and on foot. The Odd Fellows were in full regalia, and made a very impressive appearance. They marched to the picnic ground preceded by The Dalles band, which rendered some of Jheir' best music, and received many compliments for their proficiency. Ar riving on the ground situated in Captain Coe's field in a beautiful grove of trees the band, speakers and some of the prom inent members of the order took their seat on the platform. Mr. M. P. Watson, the president of the day, called the vast assemblage to order, and alter announc ing the programme of exercises, dismissed the assembly until 1 o'clock. soon after the hour named, the presi dent qf the day called the meeting to or der, ana tne exercises were opened by a thrilling piece of music by The Dalles band. This was followed by prayer by Rev. C. W. Wells, of the M. E. church at Hood Riyer. A beautiful anthem was then sung by a local choir, and was well rendered. The Dalles band filled' in the next number, itev. F M, Aunks gave an eloquent Odd Fellows' toast, and the peo ple were gratified by a song by members of the Hood Riyer public school. Hon j. L. Smith followed in an able and elo quent fraternity toast, which was loudly applauded. More music followed, and Mr. John Michell was introduced, who delivered the address on Odd Fellowship. He treated of tbe occasion, the history of the order, its growth in the United Stales and Europe, its principles, and ended by a glowing tribute to its motto, Friend ship, Love and Truth. : This closed the exercises on. the grounds, and an adjournment was had to the place chosen for tbe field sports. - The base ball game was veiy interest ing and intensely watched by friends of the two contesting clubs. - Names of The Dalles nine were Byrne, Rowc, liouuey, Saundere, Crate, Montague, Phelps, Morse, Maloney, and bt tho Hood River Luckey, Marquam, Smith, W. Graham, Rand, Overbaugh, Shoemaker, B. Graham, Wat son. At the end of the ninth inning the score stood l7 to 3 in favor 'of The Dalles. Our citizens may well feel proud of the nine from this ..city, who are a match on the diamond field with any in Eastern Oregon, and after a little practice would carry off the honors in almost any contest Next came the sack race, and - The Dalles was again victorious, Fred. Ken nedy winning the race. This was yery amusing, and the people enjbyed the sport very much. , When this race ended, drops of rain be gan to fail, and a hurried departure was inade.for the boat, which was reported at the lauding. For this reason our reporter could give nothing further regarding the field sports. Ab:nt5 o'clock the Regulator left for The Dalles, and all feit satisfied with the manner of their entertainment by the citizens of Hood River. Especial praise is due Mr. Herbert, the proprietor of the hotel, for the bountiful dinner served, and the genial manner in which he 'waited on guests. Where courtesies are to be ex tended, George js to the manner born, and is the proper host on such occasions. he or dare he deny this? If he would the very walls in the buildings around Kingslcy would cry out and call him 1 . He should know by this time that his friend has been politically "weighed in the balance and found wanting." And now by way of revenge he threatens to vote the Democratic ticket, and would like the whole of Wasco county to think as he does and do tbe same. What an absurd, exaggerated idea th feudal baron has of himself. Will he state what objection he has to the ticket or an name on it? Is it not a good one from top to bottom? Notwithstanyiog he may carry this terrible threat of his into execution in June next. Kingslcy precinct all the same will give a decided majority to every name on it. .So mote it be. He suggests that the leaders in both tac tions at The Dalles "should emigrate to Jerusalem or some other holy place." It certainly must be the new Jerusalem he means, for it is over eighteen centnries since tbe old city of Jerusalem was called holy. Why didn't he advise them to come to King ley. Is if not and should it not be a holy place, for we have had the great advantage of the earnest evangelical labors of his bosom friend for six or eight years, and are known in The Dalles as "the Tygh Ridge holy boys" or "Kingsleyites indeed in whom there is no guile." It seems to me yery bad taste, if not showing a lack of good sense on the part of "Independent Voter" to refer to the "bad beer and demijohn of whisky," as said by him to have been used by the Dufur politicians. I have a very liyely recollection of beer given to his friend's voter in Uncle Sam's postoffice at Kingsley at the June election, 1890 "Those that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones." Libert?. TELEGRAPHIC HEWS. A Signal Hervice OmVcr'8 Suicide Port Angeles, Wash., April 28. E. T. Thomas, signal service officer at this place, committed suicide this morning at 9 :30 by snooting himself with a 40-caiU ber revolver. The bullet entered about the middle of the forehead and came out near the left ear. He lived about half an hour after the shooting. He had been unwell about three months, and had been sustaining himself on stimulants for some time. Domestic troubles also largely contributed to the tragedy. His wife ap plied for a divorce tbree or four days ago, and the case was called for 10 o'clock this morning. This preyed on bis mind, and in conversation be would continually re fer to it. It undoubtedly unbalanced his mind. There is no question but that be deliberately plaoned the deed. He left bis orb.ee workun perfect order, having taken an observation at 9 o'clock and prepared bis anometer and reports to tbe minutest details.' Thomas was born in Grafton, W. Va., thirty-eight years ago. He has been in tbe employ of tbe signal service for tbe past sixteen years. He was married in New York city eight years ago, and bad three children, of whom two boys are alive.

When Mrs. Mastermao went to the barn to sec why Sevier had not tried to stop the horses, she was horrified to find bim hanging by. the neck to a joist of the barn. She gave the alarm, and when Ssvier was cut down life was extinct. It is thought tbe cause of his suicide was the trouble he had with, bis sweetheart, a German girl to whom he recently sent money to come here, wirh the understanding thut they would be married when she arrived. Oa ber ar rival she refused to marry him. and be has been veiy despondent ever since. He was an industrious young man and well liked in tne community. fftj A Dttin lit Negro KaviHher Lynched.

The occasion of tbe event being the near departure of one of their loved members, Mrs. Drew. It was planned as a oomplete surprise to ber, and after spending an hour or so in the agreeable way, which the ladies of the Aid Society know so well, Mrs. Drew was invited by Mrs. Curtis to visit the dining-room, where, before her as tonished eyes, appeared two long tables, very artistically arranged by Mrs. K. F. Gibons, extending the whole length of the large dining-room. Before each guest was a lovely buttonhole boquet, supplied by Mrs. Marden. Just before the guests were seated, one of the members stepped forward and presented" Mrs. Drew with a beautiful decorated souvenir album, on the pages of which were written words of love and re membrance by. the members, and if any one had peered in the window at that time he would bave seen more . than one pair of moist eyes, moistened by the thought of tbe breaking of tbe ties which severed one loved member from the rest.

Editor Tnua-ItoosTAixixa: , Weather keeping cool with frost every knight. Early sown spring grain looking well. Some warm weather would be very acceptable just now. ' -- My attention bas been called to a letter in the Chronicle of the 15th of April and signed "Independent Voter," in which he refers to my letter of April 2d, and says it was "devoid of truth." This statement, to speak emphatically, is A falsehood, and he knows it. Since onr primary be has evi dently got a very bad attack of the sore head. Tbe big bead we know he has been afBioted with for years, low why didn't "Independent Yoter" this little Czar, who would like to exercise an autocratic control over the voters of Kingsley precinct come out honestly and say why be feels so very bad. ; I believe I can tell him tbe reason; It ia simply this, because the Kingsley peo ple didn't elect delegates to support "bis, own familiar friend" tor office. Why be persists in wanting to pat this fellow into office is a mystery to. cue and a good, many people around here, for is it not no toriously true tbat be was the fust nun iq the precinct to make indecent, scurillous and slanderous remarks about him; in fact, be looks on him aa the very quintessence of meanness and all that is low in a man. Can Tis to vqu, mothers and daughters, that I wish to talk: . And to the children that are just learning to walk; And all who msy need anything in my line .
