Minister Thurston's Trip-
San Francisco. Dec. 8 No one seems
to know the oHect of Minister Tbure-
ton's trio toward the coast from Wash
inton. Charle T. Wilder. tb Eawaiian
consul bere, said last night that he had
not been apprUed of his visit, and did
not know whether ht was only coming to
San Francisco or coins to Honolu u. 1 he
fact that Minister Thurston conferred
with Secretary of State Grrsham jsst be
fore he left s ened to give the trip some
significance. However, it is knswn that
Miois'er Tnnrston is interested here, s
he was at ChicEi. in me Hawaiian cy
clorama, which is to be exhioited at the
midwinter fair, ii'id it may be a mere
business trip He will lit due here nex

Dale Was Prepare
Washinoton. Dec. 8 Minister Thurs
ton, before leaving Honolulu, told some
friends of the pievisional government
thit a plan of action had been screed
upOD bv the government and woul-l be
carried out. The provisional government
has 1100 men under atras ready to res
pond at a signal of the bell. This force
ill not be permitted to fire on the
United States marines if landed; neither
will the pruvii-ional government lav down
its aims and leave the government build
iug upon the request "f Minister Willis,
even after the marines are landed. The
provisional government will remain until
ts menbers are arrested and taken rut.
It will res st any interference bv anv
other than an armed fnrce of the United
States with its military force at com
mand. It will not allow tbe supporter
of the queen to enter tbe palace or dis
turb the peace. That is the programme
as outlined bv Thurston to Ins friends
here before dep-irtlnr for Honolulu. It
is also uositively asserted that Thurston
is going to Honolulu, whatever mav have
been said regarding his visit to Unicago
and San Francisco to look after Hawaiian
affairs in those cities.
Tumbled Into the Sea.
Galveston, Tex., Dec. 8 The contin
ued erosion of tbe beach from Fiftieth
street as far east as. First street is iecom-
as a grave matter with the residents of
Gu I -side roads Property to tbe amount
of $i00.000 has been swept away. The
erosion is attributed to tne ez'ension ni
ne south jetty far out into the Golf by
the United States engineers, whxh has
verted tbe coast current from its for-
mer.coarse in front ot tbe beitcn Hotel
the land has been eaten away for more
than 50 yards inland, and at Talex at tbe
foot of Seventh street the waters hve
forced themselves more than 200 yards
lnlind, sweeping away svnd to tbe depth
of five teet, and threatening tbe dsBtrur
tion of the elee'ric car track on avenue
It is the opinion of experienced en
gineers that the erosion will not be rem
edied unless a seawall is constructed
from Fiftieth street to connect with tbe
Booth jetty at least a mile from shore.
So far twenty houses have been tumbled
nto the sea, and at least . fifteen blocks
valuable building property swept
away.
Cleveland's lstentions known.
Auckland, N. Z , Dec; 9 The Mono
wai has arrived here. She left Honolulu
November 24 All was quiet there. The
news that President Cleveland intended
to restore tbe queen caused great excite
ment. It was discussed by excited knots
of people on the streets and was gener
ally condemned. A rumor was pub
lished in tbe Honolulu papers that tbe
queen was not willing to accept tbe res
toration unless nssured of the armed tup
port of the United States. Tbe Hawaiian
Gazeette of November 24 sid:
"In the mean'ime the monarchy is not
restored, and will not be unless by tbe
armed ferces of the United State, whose
lorrea most then continue to snpport the
ex queen ' t here may bo email differ
ences in tbe ranks of tbe party of reform,
but we are today mere united and deter
mined on the main issae than ever be
fore. Let every reformer put aside all
otber and minor things, for as surely as
there is au Eternal Justice oveftuling the
aflatrs of men, so surely with tbe gross
outrage proposed to be done to Hawaii
tail ol its purpose. '
K' lied by an Indian.
Sheltoo, Wash ., Dec. 8 Tbe shoot-
ing of Joseph Nadir, the Seattle peddler,
near Hoodsport, is being carefully inves
tigated, and it is likelv tbat an arrest
ill be made in a few days. It is ru
mored that the shooting was deliberately
done by a ' bad" Indian. The testimony
of some of the Indians from the Skoko-
mish reservation has been reduced to
writing. It is reported there was. a wit
ness to the deed, an Indian who was in a
eanse on the water when tbe crime was
committed, but dire vengeance has been
threatened to any one who tells what is
nown. This is very likely the troth of
be mystery, but it appears to be difficult
to assure the Indians that tbey will he
protected.

Tbe Work of Tramps.
Sah Francisco, Dec. 9 News was re
ceived at tbe office of tbe Southern Pa
cific this afternoon tbat a train, wbiob
left El Paso yesterday morning, touting

woman whose nwireB arelmkn'owb.'" Tbe
woman bad her right arm broken, and
tbe man bad bis left arm badly crushed.
Tbe remainder of the passeogere were
more or less scratched and bruised. It is
supposed tbe wreck was tbe work of tbe

The Carlin Party Denounced.
Sp-'Kane. Wash., Dec. 9 The people
of Post Fails. Idaho, held an indignation
meeting and passed resolutions severely
condemning the action of young Carlin
and party in deserting George Colgate,
who perished in Clearwater valley. Col
gate 'was a resident of Port Fal's, and his
wife ad children are in destitute cir
cumstancea. Ben Keeler, a trapper, wbe
returned with the party, had a conversa
tion with the widow, and unfeelingly re
lated enough on which to base tbe state
ments made at tbe indignation meeting.
Tbe claim is made that if tbe Carlin
party started in time, instead of hunting
after they knew Colgate needed medical
assistance, the man : would have been
alive today instead of lying dead in a
bleak and deserted region . There is talk
of organizing a searching party to look
for tbe remains with tbe hope ot finding
some scrap of writing telling of tbe facts
in the case.

'all right,' and requested Geo. Rice to read
the platform. Mr. Rice, who is a Populist,
instead of reading the Democratic platform,
read the Republican declaration. Mr. Bil

saying, 'that's right,' 'that's good doctrine,'

that he waa approving, he hadn't another

Oregon Observ-r: During October and
November fllty-flve carloads of lumber
were shipped from Grants Pass to most
every part of the Pacific coast. A large
amount of this was box stuff' and also
great deal of finished lumber for large
buildings being erected. This is a fair
average of the regular shipments during
tbe past year and would amount to about
400 car loads per year, or about 23 trains
of 25 cars per train to transport tbe year's
output of lumber produced in Josephine
county.

East Oregonian: . Stock Inspector Gil
liam came down Friday evening from .
me Aiuion country where he examined
Beveral bands ot sheep and found them
free from disease. He left on the night
train for Umatilla. Mr. Gilliam slates
that the bad times bays not prevented '
sheep from increasing in number. He
thinks that the county now contains about
250,000 head, as against 809,000 last
spring. Not a few bands bave lately been
driven in and made up for tbe loss by
shipments. A good crop of lambs were
raised, also. Sheep everywhere are in tbe
best of shape. . '
The Immigration Issue of the La
Grande Chronicle says: "In Union county
mere are several hot sarings. the largest
of which are situated along the base of
tne mountains eight miles east ot La
Grande. Tbe spring here forms a lake
covering an area of two or three acres,
and is fed by a large supply of hot water
wnicn varies in temperature from 178 to
192 degrees. Tbe water lust above the
opening of tbe spring is hot enough to
scald a person's hand and will boil an
egg in eleyen minutes. The water derives
its intense heat from chemical action and
is largely charged with sulphur, the same
being combined with other mineral sub
stances. An analysis of tbe water from
Hot Lake have revealed about the same
chemical properties as those of tbe cele-
oraiea Arkansas not springs." .
