the lowest responsible bidder.

Frank Poindexter, who
returned last Sunday from silver Lake, re
ports quite an interesting feat being per
formed by a buccaro near Bly recently.

gar and gave it chase. Being mounted on a
fleet footed horse he forced the cougar np a
tree.andashe ascended the buccaro threw his
rope catching the animal around the coup

weighed several hundred pounds. .
The boom town of Ainslie has gone to the
bats.- It was started a short lime ago A
sp'endid townsite was laid out, electric
lights were put in, street improvements
were put in, sewers and water works were
projected, and one of the finest lumberipg
and manufacturing plants on the coast was
erected. A railroad, splendidly equipped,
was built out into the timber for logging
purposes. This it was given out was to be
completed to Astoria immediately. The
whole business has been sold by the siienff,
and wilt mot pay ten cents on the dollar to
creditors.
The ordinance against hitcbiug horses or
animals to trees or sidewalks was strictly
enforced this morning, and many old resi
dents found their horses removed from
their usual stopping places and impounded.
This worked a hard-hip on some, .who was
not aware that such a city law was in force.
If the ordinance is too stringent in its pro
visions it should be repealed, and the only
way to test its stringency is its strict en
forcement. We do not believe in inopera
tive laws, as they burden the 'statute
books, and educate the people to vielate
salutary measures.

Complaints are made that the road to the

Mr. Theodore Cartwright passed last
winter in the Methow miner, and he says
lor tour montns tne only person he saw was

severe. He bad an abundance of provis

himself. This fall and winter he will spend
in this city; bat as soon as spring opens h
will again make a trip to the mining camp,

heard comes from Klamath county, and is
perpetrated by the Star, which say that G

the acquaintance of Eli Perkins or Bill
Nye.

Penn., in conversation with a Stlem J rule
pendent reporter, said: "The town has now
iully recovered from the effects of the fliod,
the old buildings being replaced by new
and substmt al ones. As soon as it became
known that the Cimbna Iron Works would
rebuild, everyone commenced repairing the
damage. Th e works employ uo wards of
8000 men, aud is the main-stay of the
town. The dam which caused the damag ,
will never be rebuilt, for in the eveot ot an
attempt to do so the populace would rise en
masse aud destroy it.
A dispatch from Tacoma says arrange
ments are nearly completed for the impor
tation of a large number of hogs from the
east to fatten on damaged gram. The
Great Northern and Northern Pacific have
partly agreed to transport hogs over their
hues free, so that the whole cost in bri aging
the hogs would be the cost of delivering
them to the above named roads. The rail
roads will obibly give the people of East
ern Oregon the same privilege to ship pigs
in free, and if they do those who have dam
aged grain and no market fir it should take
advance of the opportunity here pre
sented.
Eastern Oregon Republican; A mineral
transaction took place a few days ago

Telegraph Operators' Mistakes.
Telegraph operators make mistakes as
well as compositors, as the following from
the Arlington Record will show: Dr. Ba
con lives at Lt Grande. A few days ago he
received a telegram from L. C Edwards,
our city drugist, which read as follows;
"Dr. Bacon, come quick; Jesse sick," Jesse
is the only son of Mr. Edwards, and a favor
ite of the doctor, so he left quite a number
of patients and took first train for Arling
ton. Imagine his surprise when he arrived
to find Jesse perfectly well and happy.
Upon investigation the doctor learned to
bis surprise that the telegram sent him
read: "Dr. Bacon, come quick; geese
thick." The doetor would not have cared
so much for the mistake if the geese had
stayed, bat the weather having cleared np
the geese had left for pastures anew, and
the doctor failed to bag any.

Is bad breath, and yet how many other
wise attractive, polite, and particular
people afflict their friends with the tool
odor ot their breath. If there was no
remedy for this, it might excite our sym
pathy, bnt as there Is no need of having
a foul breath, it is an unpardonable
breach of rood manners to obtrude such
an offense on good society.
Foul breath arises from disordered di
gestion which can be corrected by using
Sulphur Bitters, and the result will be a
pare, sweet breath. ;

Contrary to. Statute.
Comptroller Ecuels of the treasury de
partment has been notifying building and
loan associations, which have the word
national as a part of their name, to discon
tinue the use of the word "national," as it
is contrary to section 5243 of the revised
statutes, which says tbat "ail banks, except
national banks, and all persons or corpora
tions doing business as bankers, brokers or
saying institutions, are prohibited from
using the word 'national' as a portion of the
title of such bank, firm er corporation, and
any violation of this prohibition, committed
after the 3d day of September, 1893, shall
subject the offending party to a fii.e of $50
a day for each day during which it it re
peated." This edict will cause abont
seventy -five associations to change their
names.. National Building, Loan and Trust
Association of Walla .Wall, Wash., has
changed to Inter State Building, Loan and
Tiuit Association of Walla Walla, Wash.
Left Her Husband.
Arlington Record: Mrs. R. D. White,
who lived in Klickitat, Wash , a few miles
from Arlington, left her husband and family
of five children a few days ago, and went
oat into the world. She is a woman cf
prepossessing appearance ' and more than
ordinary intelligence, but seems to have be
come infatuated with the idea that she is
worthy of a higher or more pleasant lite
tbau staying at home with her husband and
attending to the duties incumbent on a
wife and mother. All good people will pity
her; and not one will say she did right.
Her own conscience will continually up
braid her. She cannot go down on her
knees and ask God to forgive and smile on
her. None but the vicions will tolerate
her, and they even wiU despise and scorn
her. There is nothing possible for her to do
but to return to her family, acknowledge
the great wrong she has done them, and by
a life devoted to their happiness, place her
self in a position that she can be forgiven.
A Correction.
Thb Dalles, Nov. 10, 1893.
Editor Times-Mount ah kxr:
Dkab Sis Sour reporter made an error
in yesterday's paper, when he spoke ot
"the aro light ou Third street in front of
the Sisters' academy, etc" This is not cor
rect, as the are light your reporter refers to
ia on the corner of Third and Lincoln
streets. It used to be in front of St. Mary's
academy, tut about three years ago the city
removed it with considerable expense to its
present location, where it seiids its rsys of
light into a radius of several blocks. Snch
would not be the case, if the city weie to
remove it again and place it in the center ot
the next block east, surrounded by mighty,
though beautiful shade trees. It was news
to mi and several others that complaint had
again been made of this particular aro
light. Taxpayer,

The Liebe Tragedy.
The Evening Telegram ot Portland pub
lishes the full particulars of the shooting
of Mr. Theodore H. Liebe by Mr. Chris
tian Hess yesterday lust before noon. It
appears tbat Mr. Liebe was going to his
home about the noon honr, when in cross
ing Pars street he was shot from behind
by Mr. Hess and fell forward on his face,
and he fired at him again while in the
prostrate condition. The man then turned
the weapon on himself, discharging the
pistol just above the right ear, causing
almost instant death. From a letter found
on Mr. Hess' person he claims that Mr.
Liebe had caused him the greatest an
noyance by his arrest for embezzlement,
and bad even made threats to his wife,
who was Mr. Liebe's niece, that he would
send her husband to the penitentiary.
This caused the greatest mental anxiety
to Mrs. Hess and so preyed npon her hus
band's mind that he was partially de
ranged, and he came to the determination
to revenge himself upon Lis persecutor.
Mr. Hess' story of the embezzlement is
that he loaned 870 to Carl, a son of Mr.
Theodore Liebe, and who is under age,
with the promise that he would not tell
bis father. The young man failing to re
pay him. and being in need of money,
Hess considered it no crime to pay him
self .out of the father's recepts. He was
caught in the act, arrested tor embezzle
ment, indicted, laid in jail two or three
weeks and finally furnished ball, and was
awaiting biatrial which was to take place
on the 22d. Mrs. Hess pleaded with her
uncle not to prosecute her hnsband ; but
all her entreaties were to no avail. The
interview with the widow substantiates!
her husband's statements, and she say
the family relations were always the most
agreeable and that Hess was an honest,
honorable man.
Mr. Theodore Liebe was well known at
The Dalles, and for many years was in
business with his brother Frederick
since deceased at the corner ot Wash
ington and Second streets. He remored
to Portland and engaged in the bakery
business, since which time he has accu
mulated considerable wealth. Jndre
Liebe, of this city, left for Portland last
night, and this morning his wite ieceived
a telegram stating that her brother-in-law
was much improved and there were
strong hopes of his recovery.
A Smuggler Shot.

name, waa shot in tbe leg and taken back
to iail. The wound is not dangerous, but
will prevent his removal for several days.
The man seems to be well educated, and is
said to belong to a good family.

Funny Stories of Indian Students.
European history and law appear
to offer sad stumbling blocks to the
native students in the Indian colleges
and schools. In one paper the ques
tion was to explain the sentence,
'She (Queen Mary) was not only his
wife, but his friend. " The translator
made the passage to run, "She was
not only his wife, but the wife f all
his friends 1" Another student de
fined Salic law as "a law in France
by which no man descended from the
female sex was to get the French
crown. Tne habeas corpus act was
described as a very important act
passed in 1628. It declared, said one
student, "that the bread and wine
taken at the Lord's supper is the real
blood and body of Christ."
Another imagined the act of uni
formity to be a law "that all soldiers
should dress alike." Asked to ex
plain the expression "a sponging
house" another ventured upon the
following wild guess, "In England
there are many people who live by
sponging on otners, so there are
houses in which some who are too
lazy to work depend on others." The
last example is that of an embryo
political economist who on being
asked to write a note on the poor
law said: "The poor laws in 1601
were passed in Elizabeth's reign.
They were that all fires in England
were to be put out at 8 o'clock."

Superstitions Abont Swallows.
So far as has been ascertained birds
return year after year to the same
haunts. Swallows marked by Frisch
returned to the same places, and this
has always been the case when ex
periments have been made. The
swallow has been and still continues
the object of many superstitions,
which, unlike most cases, have been
favorable to the birds. Farmers in
many places think that if the barn
swallows are killed their cows will
Buffer in consequence and give bloody
milk, and thus they have been pro
tected when other birds equally their
friend have been shot without mercy.
