The baccalaureate sermon last evening
at the Baptist church attracted a fair
audience of members of the Alumni of
Wasco Independent academy and friends
of the graduating class. . Mr. Wblsler
preached a very able discourse, which
was replete with good advice tc those who
were about to enter upon the active duties
of life. The sermon was listened to wi:h
marked attention by all present, and no
doubt left a good impresb'on on the minds
of the students.
A few days ago a man by the name ot
Leslie Wise, of Davidson county, South
Dakota, arrived here, says the Baker
Democrat, and his strange actions caused
his arrest by the sheriff on a charge of in

agines he is a deputy sheriff on the trail
of an embezzler; has several fraudulent
checks in his possession which he claims
were forged by the fellow he is after.

The nominations by the president of
Daniel J. Murphy, Thomas J. hlacR and
Henry C. Grady to the positions of U. 8.
district attorney, collector of customs aud
U. 8. marshal created considerable sur
prise among Democrats in this city, but
were generally approved. Murphy was
never considered on top, and the opinion
expressed by the correspondent of the
Oreqouian a few days ago of his downfall
- was considered about right by many local
politicians. Black and Grady were al
ways considered prominent candidates,
but Blackmail, of tfeppner, was thought
to be the favorite from Eastern Oregon.
But the plums have fallen in unexpected
direct. ons, and the inevitable will be
borne with becoming grace.
A I o'clock this afternoon a lunch wasr
spread in Keller's confectionery tor the
visiting physicians and invited guests.
There were about fifty chairs around the

were called upon and responded. They
all appreciated the manner in which they
had been entertained, and would kindly
remember The Dalles and its citizens.
As the time was limited there was no
toast master, but each appeared to enjoy
the occasion. At the hour of 2 o'clock
Dr. Hinehart announced that the train
would be in waiting at the Umatilla

tions for all who desired to go. Quite
a number of those present avai'ed them

J. H. Kolman s and gotta revolver that he
had left there. He took nothing with him

he has wandered off while suffering -from
temporary aberration. He is a ca penter
by trade and was a sober, industrious
fellow.
la a visit to Moody's warehouse to-day
our reporter found it crowded to the rafters
witb wool, and wagons being unloaded con
stantly; bnt notwithstanding the large re.
ceipts no sales are reported, and quotations
are not given There is a lack of confidence
in the present administration of national af
fairs, and a feeling of fear is manifested
that free trade will be a opted and the
financial policy changed. This has unset
tled values of all product', and causes our
raw materia to be a drag in the market.

There was great excitement at the East
End this forenoon, caused by a young man
riding a backing horse. The animal was
mild, meek appearing cayoae; but when folly
aroused to action could twist tx-rselt into
more contortions than any cirens tumbler
we ever saw. At times she would jump
several feet in the air, and then attempt the
doable somersault act without a vaulting
board. All this time the young man ap
peared as though he was glued to the sad
dle, and it was impossible for the cayuse to
unseat him. Once the animal made a rush
for a team standing near, and the rider only
missed being jammed aga nst the tongne of
a wagon by an inch. After it was all over
the young man said the horse would be gen
tle to ride after a little while; but any am
mated creature that can display such agility
seemiogly without any Drov cation is not to
be trusted.

Grant's Pass Courier; William Crow bas
taken pains to go clear to the snow line for
some specimens of "blood plant" to send to
the world's fair. These cariosities of nature
are about the size aud shape of a pineapple,
but delicately formed and are of a deep
cr maon in color. The entire plant when
held to the light looks like a delicate and
intricate piece of wax work. No matter
how great the fair may be, this plant will
excite considerable cariosity and astonish
ment. James Harrington, a desperate character
who prided himself on hi shooting qualities,
was shot by a cook named Cunningham, at
Wallace, Idaho, on Satur lay, and fatally

credit. The academy is in excellent condi
tion, and enjoys an excellent reputation
throughout Eastern Oregon. It is one of
the leading educational institutions east of

From Friday's Daily.
The Baptist church was thronged last
evening with parents and friends of the
graduating class of Wasco Independent
academy, and the aisles were even crowded.
A 8 o'clock the graduating class and the
faculty, consisting of Prof. J. S. Brown,
Miss Leora Slutz and Miss Bessie Holcomb,
took seats on the platform, and the princi
pal introduced the following programme:

The musical renditions by Misses Lang
and Newman and Prof. Bircfeld were ex-
ceptionably good, and sustained tbe
excel
lent reputation tney enjoy in this comma
Lity. Miss Florence Lark, in her vocal
solo, showed rare cultiyation of voice, com
bined with harmony and sweetness of
sound. Mr. N. H. Gates and Mr. Wm. C.
Fredden evinced depth of thought and care
ful analyzation of the subjects of their ora
tions, although the premises of the former
were 'subject to criticism. Mr. Gates has a
forcible delivery and many of the elements
of the orator, and Mr. Fredden also gave
proof of good ability. The essay of Miss
Evelyn Newman was a well written paper,
containing gems of thought couched in
cho'ice language and abounding in beautiful
sentiments and noble aspirations. She need
never be ashamed of her effort at gradua
tion. Miss Maybel G. Mack gave evidence
of courage and excellent judgment in tb.6
discussion of the subject, and the essay was
very practical and sensible in its conclu
sions. It displayed careful analyzation and
grouping of ideas in such a rhetorical man
ner that it was evident her stndies bad not
been neglected. The story of Isabella of
Castile, and her interest in tbe great dis
coverer ot this continent, was told in a charm
ing manner by Miss Anna Taylor, and the
young lady is nndoubtedly possessed of
many of the inductive and deductive facul
ties of the historian. Miss Laura E. Thomp
son, in "It Might Have Been," was poetical
n expressions, and applied the lesson to
many of the failures of life. The young
lady evinced a good knowledge of language
and a clever use ot rhythmic sentences. It
is difficult to discriminate when all did so
well, and tbe class of '93 may well feel
proud of their commencement exercises.
The altar was handsomely decorated with
garlands of flowers, and the front was a
solid mass of floral display. Each cf the
graduates was a recipient of floral offerings
and other mementoes from friends. At the
close congratulations were extended, and
all appeared highly pleased at tbe success
ful manner in which the programme had
been carried out.
A Tour of the East
From a private letter from Dr. Hollister,
dated Baltimore, June 5, 1893, we make
the following extracts:
We are located at present on a beautiful
plantation about twenty-five miles from
Baltimore owned by my mother-in-law.
The famous Potomac river flows by our door
and the scenery, while not . so ragged as
the far west, is very peaoful and pictur
esque. I was especially pleased with the
yiewa in and around Harper's ferry. Oar
train halted there for a half hour and an old
negro took me to the exact spot where John
Brown's old fort used to stand. One other
place of interest to -me on oar trip from
Chicago to this place was the oil regions of
Pennsylvania and the miles uf great fur
naces in and about Pittsburg. We arrived
in tbat district in tbe evening, and the
illumination tor miles by the natural gas
wells was an inspiring sight indeed.
We expect to remain in tbe south two or
three weeks where my wife's . family will
have a reunion, then we will return to Chi
cago where my owu family will be united,
after which we intend to continue oar jour
ney toward the land of the Betting sun; for.
notwithstanding the fact that everything
that could contribute to our pleasure and
entertainment is being done by many con
genial friends and relatives who insist that
we shall never return to oar western borne.
I confess that I feel an unexpected and un
detinable longing to spend the rest of my
days in sunny Oregoo.
Before I conclude this wandering epistle
I will say a few words about Chicago and
the great fair. For eight days I visited the
hospitals in tbe forenoons and the fair from
1 to 10 P. M., and when you consider that
every foot of the 640 acre tract is covered
by an interesting exhibit, you can see how-1
impossible it would be tor any one to do it
justice in a few weeks. One of the most
remarkable features of the exhibition is a
street called tbe midway plaisance, where
nearly every nation in feurope and Asia is
represented by their villages. One can
study the habits and customs of all nations
here without the expense of a round-the-
world tour. Among other places of interest
On this wonderful street, 1 visited tbe Al
geria and Tunis display, Indian, Austrian,
Chinese, Dahomey, Dutch, Insh, Japanese,
Lapland, Moorish, Morocco, Hungarian and
Turkish villages, and a street in Cairo, be
side many foreign theaters and pano
ramas that I cannot at present recall. At
the Irish village I bad the pleasure of kiss
ing tbe only and original blarney stone, so
that if I am unusually effusive in my com
pliments on my return you will understand
the cause and take them cum yranum salts
My greatest pleasure' in Chicago, however,
was in hearing the finest musical artists of
all nations, morning, noon and night, until
1 admitted that my love of music was tem
porarily satiated.
Accidental Killing.
Bidgewat, June 13, 1893.
Editor Tuus-MonnTAniijgu
On Saturday, June 10th, at about noon.
Wm. Henry Perry was accidentally killed
oy being thrown trom a load ot lumoer
while bringing it to my place. Deceased
has been in my employ since March 13th,
aud on tbe day above named I had occasion
to send him about four miles for a load of
lumber. Not returning by noon I started
out to look for him, and abont halt way be
tween my place and where tbe lumber was
piled I found the team standing with the
lines under their feet. ' They bad started
borne and left the road at tbat place and got
stuck. J met Mr. Wm. fiyal, who bad
found the team some time before and bad
been back along tbe road lo king for the
man. tie told me my man was dead abont
a mile up the road. We went on to see if
be was dead or unconscious. - We found the
man was dead, Iyinrf with his head in the
right band wagon track with his feet abont
the middle of the road, and we supposed,
from bis position and the apparent wounds,
that be had fallen from tbe wagon and the
Vfe?lV' PfU
wheels passed over the body. Mr. Lyal
went after some help and I came for a team
to remove the body. When I was returning
I met Mr. J. S. Linton and Mr. S. E. Lan
der. They, coming from a different direc
tion., knew nothing of the accident, but
went back and helped me place the body in
the wagon. Mr. Linton came home with
me and assisted to prepare the remains for
burial.
On examining the road and the body we
came to the conclusion that the brake had
given away, the wagon got oeyona control.
. . . i . i
and that he had started to raise up when
the wheel struck a large rock and threw him
off on his head, fracturing the skull. One
wheel passed partly over the chest, break
int) the collar bone and all the ribs on the
left side, also over the right leg below the
knee, breaking both bones.
Tbe burial took place Sunday afternoon
at 3 o'clock in the presence of about
dozen neighbors on my farm.
Mr. Perry was a native of Nova Scotia,
58 years of age, a citizen of the .United
States and a sober, honest, haid-working
man, respected by all who knew him.
Charles P. Uben.
A Card to the People.
To the Voters of Dalles City:
Having had the honor of the nomination
for mayor of Dalles City conferred upon me
unexpected and unsought, and having beard
my remarks made in accepting the nomina
tion criticized and misconstrued, I desire to
say in explanation thereof, that what I said
in reference to sewers was this: That
considered thalthe health and lives of our
families superceded all things else, and that
I attributed the appearance of typhoid
fever, diphtheria and many other diseases to
poor sewerage in many cases, and that I
should use my utmost endeavors, in case I
should be elected, in cases where necessary,
to correct the same as soon as possible. I
did not wish to convey the idea that I
would fayor the construction of sewers in
all streets and additions to the city or tbe
taking up of old sewers and putting down
new. 1 would not convey the idea tor a
moment that I would favor sudden or
sweeping changes m the sewer system, nor
dd I think that any one could have so con
strued the remarks I made. I should first
of all examine the city thoroughly and bunt
up all death traps, disease-breeding ponds,
alleys, back-yard sewerage, open cess pools,
etc., and have them corrected as speedily as
possible, and this could be done in roost
cases with but little expense to any one and
at no expense to the city. Connections
with sewers already laid could be recom
mended and enforced if necessary at the ex
pense of those benefitted thereby, ponds
might be drained and pools filled up at but
little expense, and the general health of the
city thereby greatly improved. This may
be done gradually and in a way not to be
felt or that would become burdensome to
any one. Poor water and bad sewerage
have filled more grayes in Dalles City than
from all other sources combined. We now
have good water, aud typhoid fever bas
fallen off fifty per cent, within the last two
years, and I belieye it with diphtheria
could almost be blotted oat here by careful
attention to tbe sewerage as bove sug
gested; and I further believe that nbhonest
citizen who bas the welfare of the-pWpIe of
the city at heart would oppose the changes
I have named or would begrudge a pittance
expended in that direction in urgent cases
wbero health and lives were endangered.
I believe you could elect no better man to
serve you than Hon. S. B. Adams, and if he
is elected I am sore economy will be his
watzh word as it certainly would be mine;
and as I am a tax payer and a little stingy
myself, I assure yon that I will i.ot, if
elected, favor expending one dollar of tbe
city's money unless it is actually necessary.
I also desire to state (as I am accused of
taking an active part io tbe Democratic
meetings and ticket) that I seriously ob
jected to it from the start, and that I re
fused a nomination for water commissioner
and also for council before the delegates
met in convention. I attended no meet
ings, except was present with other disin
terested parties when tbe fourteen delegates
met to nominate, and no one bad any say
except tbe delegates. Mr. Adams, in this
convention, strongly insisted on my running
for council; but I told him I woo d accept
no nomination, and gay him as a reason
that I did not uphold a purely Democratic
ticket for the city. I also told Mr. J. B.
Crossen the same in regard to water com
missioner on tbe noon of the some day. I
was finally appointed as one of three city
central committeemen, but declined it. So
I am willfully put in a false light when any
one says I took any kind of an interest in
the Democratic meetings, or supported or
upheld any of their actions. Some of their
nominees are good men and no doubt
ill
be elected; but once for all I had nothing
to do with this convention and took no part
whatever.
I desire in conclusion to express my sin
cere thanks to the citizens Tjf Dalles City
tor the great honor conferred on me in giv
ing me this nomination, and if elected I
shall endeaver to aerve the people honestly
and faithfully. W. E. Rinehart.
Man Silled at Sanger. - -
Baker City Democrat.
The news of a sad and fatal accident
occurring at Sanger, Union county, the
scene of operations of the C. T. Bradley
Mining Company, reached Baker City
last evening. On 8a turd ay afternoon
about 4:30 o'clock, Nick Milton, a Ger
