N. Wiley in this city, suffered a stroke of
paralysis this morning. Dr. Holliskr
was called and applied the usual reme
dies On account of the age of tbe lady,
who has attained 87 years, this afflictiou
is quite serious, Jmt it is hoped she

There is plenty of money in tbe coun -

The medical board of examiners for the
branch insane asylum in Eastern Oregon

but it is doubtful it it will be chosen tor
reasons net necessary to be mentioned. ,
The ladies of St. Paul's Guild have ar
ranged a very pretty attraction for this

This is an excellent opportunity to obtain
nice Umsimas presents.

Glacier: "We suggest that the Hawaiian

man to take the queen and gate money,
the other fellow to be muzzled for life."
. The ringing of the fire bell iu Athena
by some practical joker, one night last
week, made a raving maniac of a lady of
that town, whose nerves had already be
come shattered by a long period of ill
health. She was taken to the asylum at
Salem for treatment, while the idiot who
rung the false alarm is enjoying perfect
freedom. The Athena fire company of
fers $50 tor the villian's capture.
The city will improve the squares at
the intersection of streets, and it would
be a great advantage to the traveling pub
lic if all these intersections should re-
- ceive a covering of crushed ruck. By
this means the municipality would set an
example for citizens to follow, and in
time it might be expected that the thor-
' ougbfares of The Dalles would be equal
if not superior to any interior town on the
coast.
Chairman E. L. E. White, of the execu-
' tive committee of the Oregon pres associa
tion, : has received a letter from John F.
Sheehan, of the midwinter fair committee
of the San Francisco press club, stating that

the fair. Mr. Sheehan advices the mcm-
here of the Oregon association to postpone

arrangements made for accommodations
for the visitors.

. the woods below Salem the other night

John Mount, of Portland, identified the
rig as belonging to a liveryman, 3ohnson
at East Portland, who has ordered it sent
down to him by the next boat. " It was
taken by a yc ung recruit of the regular
army from Vancouver, last summer. The
supposition is he took the team out and
-.sold them. He has never been heard of
since.
Water is being successfully brought to
the surface of the apparently dry streams
of Colorado, western Kansas and 'Neb
raska and applied to the purpose of irri
gation. A brief mention is made in one
of the Morgan county papers of the suc
cessful experiment of Mr. C. S. Owens, of
Byers, who has obtained a plentiful sup
ply of water from the west lork of the

and flows beneath its sandy -bed for more
than fifty miles.
At 11 o'clock yesterday forenoon an' ex
plosion occurred at the iron mine near Os
wego, says the Evening Telegram. A spark
from a candle igaitcd a dynamite cartridge,
causing an explosion. Two men who were
at ork were badly injured. Their names
are Burnhardt and Shuho'm. The :atter
was badly wounded in the thigh, and the
. former had his right band partly blown
away; ne alto had a hole torn in his side.
Neither will die. They were brought to
the Gocd Satuarition hospital. No others
were injured by the explosion.
A religious census is being taken of
Salem. The Statesman says: The per
cent, of church members and church go
ers is surprising, so much so, that it is es
timated were all those who gave the can
vassers to understand they attended
church, to go to church, Salem the city H
oi cnurcuca, wouiu not nave near enough
room to hold the congregations. It is
thought policy has been exercised some
what. The per cent, ot infidels and those
who are indifferent is encouragingly
' small to canvassers.
Oregon City eDjoys tbe distinction of
having the oldest man in the state, if in
deed, not on the entire Pacific coast. Mr.
Patrick Mooney is the venerable citizen
to whom reference is made. He first saw
the light of life away back in "ould"
Ireland on the 14th of December, 17b7,
and consequently was 10G years old last
Thursday. When a mere "broth of a
boy," Mr. Mooney came over to this land
of tbe free and borne of the brave, and in
the pioneer year of 1852 he came west to
grow up with the country and settled in
Oregon ( ity. He has made that place his
home continuously ever since.
The Kris Kringle party at Wmgnle's
hall last night attracted a very full audi
ence, the large room being densely
crowded. Mr. and Mrs. Kris Eringls
were the objects of considerable curios
ity, and tbeir Identity were not fully es
tablished until the programme had been
nearly rehearsed. Every number was ex-
ceptionably well rendered, and several
were loudly encored. All seemed to be
well pleased, and a more successful en
tertainmeut has not been given at The
Dalles for a long time. The articls on
the trees sold quite rapidly, and it is an
agreeab'e announcement that the ladies
of the Congregational church realized
very liberal amount.
There is considerable building going
on up the valley in spite ot hard times,
says the Hood liiver Glacier. Alvey Her
shey has just finished his house, and
a- pretty and substantial domicile
it is. Mr. Neileigh is putting up
neat honse on. his place just beyond the
I. O. O. K. cemetery. M. A. Cook seems
to be quite a carpenter, having put uu
barn, cold storage cellar and one dwelling
house, and another is under way. Mr,
Heals has put up a barn and Mr. Bans-
bury has made additions to both his
house and barn. Mr. II. F. Davidson is
building a cellar aud storage room large
enougli to contain all the apples from
several orchards.
This, from the coluu.ns ot our cotem-
porary, would be a good item for the sen
sational press, if it were true; but it is not,
and Clemens Wettle is the boy who acci
dentally shot another boy by the name of
line." and was lnmselr unharmed: "Wet
tle began by breaking his leg in three
places. Shortly afterward a horse stepped
ib bis foot, cutting off his big toe as
neatly as a biscuit cutter could hive done
u. lMai summer ne was badly powder
burned, while investigating its explosive
power, with other children. A few days
ago a mule kicked him in the abdomen
resierday morning at V o'clock tie was
shot in the stomach with a 32-caliber bul
let, and still lives. The bullet , went in
and came out again without lacerating
tne internal organs." The true report ol
the aflair was published in the Times
Mountaineer, and there was nothing
strange or sensational about the affair.

day. She was aged 87 years old, and was
the mother of Mrs. W. N. Wiley. . or
many years she has been a resident of this
city, and exemplified in the highest degree
tbe moat commendable Christian virtues.
Tb6 weather is too delightful to be appre
ciated at this season of the year. Only
three days intervene between now and the
Christmas tide, and the air is spring-iike.
This is something unusual, and it would be
more in harmony with the season if snow
covered the ground, and good sleighing was
enjoyed. .
A knot is a geographical mile, or two
minutes of the earth's surface, or 1 60th of
a degree of a preat circle: This is 1,153 a

John Crook and Jerry Collins came up
tbe Curry county beach road lust Saturday
on horseback. - When a fewl miles below
Gold Beach near Frauk Daniel's ranch,
they noticed two panthers in the bru-h
fighting. Having no weapons they dis
mounted, and, securing rocks, charged on
the "varmits." Tbe animals quit their
family quarrel and charged the intruders,
who were compelled to mount their horses
and fly, the panthers pursaing for some dis
tance. The ram poured down in torrents this
afternoon as thought it had not rained for
forty days aod nights, wtiile.on tbe contrary
for the past two months there has been au
abundance of moisture in this portion of the
northwest, and it appeared as though the
supply had been exhausted. Notwithstand
ing the amount of latnfall we have exper
ienced there may be four or tive feet of
snow yet before the spring opens, and still
this ia a barren region in comparison with
the Willamette valley.
Salem Democrat: Deputy State Treasurer
Horigkin is expectt d home to day from
"Roseburg, where he has been during the
past week to give testimony in the trial of
the county treasury for embezzling $23,000.
He hat also been subpoe. as i to testify in a
civil suit by the couutyagainst the bonds
men of the delinquent treasurer; but the
evidence in the criminal case may be used
in the civil action, thus doing away With
tbe necessity of Major Hodgkin's presenoe
at the latter trial. (
James Barnard, Clarence Ztchary and
Ehel Ciaruo were bnund over to answer the
charge of larceay of cattle before a justice
court in Fossil, Gilliam county, last Satur
day, the former two in $700 and the latter
$500. Clarno was also held as a witness in
the sum of $1000. Tbeie have been well
laid schemes of cattle-stealing carried on
fur years in that county, aud the next
grand jury will devote considerable atten
tion to this species of crimes, and undoubt
edly several arrests will be made.
East Oregonian: Report has reached
town of the death of William Rust, a prom
inent sheep man of Umatilla county, at his
home at Ridge. Mr. Rust's death, which
occurred very suddenly, is supposed to
have been tbe result of cancer of the stom
ach. The sad event is a sudden and severe
blow to his family and friend. Mr. Rust

the recpect and esteem of those who knew
him by his integrity ami sterliug manhood.
He leaves friends innuineral le to unite with

The particulars as we learn them aie that
yesterday Mr. Bradley's boy aud a son of
George Houck, both about the tame age
went hunting. As the Bradley boy did
not return home in the evening the parent
went over to Mr. Houck 's place and found,
the latter's son at home, who informed Mr.
Bradley that they had separated at a small
pasture near the Honck house, and that
both had started for their respective homes;
Dut unto yen ine craaiey Doy bis not nut in
u Buucuraucr. tie UUUerstand that a
search lor the lost boy was kept np all
night and tc-day, but nothing has been
heard of him np to last accounts. It seems
strange that - be lost his way between the
Houck farm and where Mr. Bradley lives,
as the two places aie but a short distance
apart. It is feared that be met with a set
ions accident of sooie nature.
Mr. Wm. Synder, an old resident of The
Dalles, returned yesterday from a year s so
journ st Salem, where he has been nnder
tbe especial guardianship of fhe warden of
the penitentiary. It was proved in the U
S. district court that Mr. Snyder gave or
sold liquor to Indians to this vicinity, and
the ltidge very wisely considered that
twelve-months' sojourn at the penitentiary
might be benebcial to his shattered health
r or this length of time he has obeyed the
oehests ot those in control of the state in
stitution, and now, having fulfilled all obli
gat ion a he owe an a citizen of the common
wealth, he is agaan privileged to follow his
own inclnatioo as regards life, liberty and
tne pursuit ot happiue.ua.
Salem Independent: The soldiers' home
case will soou again come before the courts.
lit this case the prosecuting attorney re
fuses to apppeir before the courts iu behalf
of the people and so the case goes directly
to Judge Burnett, who, it is believed, will
entertain it. Tne law provides that while
it is impossible to mtndatr.us as a prosecnt
ing attorney or as attorney geueral, that
they can appeal directly, without which
the people would be al solutely at the mercy
ot the otbeers. la this case the complaint
will allege that the prosecuting attorney is
ao obstreperous cms, who, for some reason,
refuses to represent the people. If Judge
Burnett concludes there is merit in the case
it will go ahead and an id junction bt
granted.
Sunday mornings Examiner says: The
Oregou I'acifio Company's loug looked for
steamer Willamette Valley arrived late this

Swinerton, amounting to S23.209, mainly
for supplies the steamer took on at thiB
port. There were several otlur claims filed
so many, in tnc that the two oeputy mar
shals who ha-u been camoed on the dock
tor the past forty-eight hours hid the-.r
bnait pockets distended with papers. Tbe
steamer was included in the assets of the

employes at the Monumental mine. Tbey
tell the reporter that the Monumental has
developed into a very valuable propsrty,
and tbat the next clean np will be. the

blanket.
Union Republican: The shipment of
Union county's big red apples to eastern
points still continues. No previous season
has ever seen such activity in the shipment
of Grande Ronde fruit. - It is believed the
grand showing made at the world's fairhas
had something to djo with the demand for
our fruit, but the activity of our local
market is of course the more direct cause.
Two cars were loaded here Monday. These
were part of a shipment of five car loads to
the east. Tbe returns are said to be very
satisfactory.

cousisted of a part of a spool with a No. 22
cartridge sneu in it. in attempting io re
model tht "what not," Miss Vanderbeck
undertook to remove the spool and in doing
so au explosion occurred by which she was
shot through the left hand. It was sup

A Bitter Dose to Swallow.
. Baker City Democrat.
Is seems that the Salem Independent had
some reason for talking when it observed a
few days since "that the site for the branch
unatic asylum has already been selected by
Governor Pennoyer, Secretary McBride and
Treasurer Metsnhan and that those places
besides Pendleton that have put in au ap
plication may as well let their hopes 'mist
away.' That the board of consulting (phy
sicians are being sent to other places only as
a subterfuge in the interests of this board,
which wants no hornet's nest stirred np in
the bunchgrass conotry this close to elec
tion." When tbe Democranommented upon the
above clipping one day last week we stated
that it was oar opinion thatiocr cotemporary
was talking through its hat. but we are not
so sure about this now, siuce it has leaked
out, and from what the Democrat considers
a reliable sonrce, that while, the board ot
physicians was at Pendleton last week, ex
Indian Agent Crawford, of Umatilla county,
was asked if he would accept the superin
tendeccy of tbe branch asylum which was
to be located at Pendleton. -
The Democrat trusts that there is a mis
take somewhere We would deeply regret
to know that the board would be guilty ot
perpetrating such a ov aod contemptible
trick. , S

ONE ENGINEER'S EXPERIENCES.
He Has Killed Twenty-two Persons, bnt Is
Regarded as a. Safe Man.
"Lafayette Truman, engineer of tlie
Erie train that ran into tne eastern
Illinois train, has killed 22 men," said
C. R. McCullough, a brother engineer
of the Chicago and Erie road, at the
Clifton, "but," he continued, "in no
case was he to blame, and in every
case he has been exonerated by the
iurv. Most of these killings were at
railroad crossings and in other similar
accidents where the engineer could
not be held l-espousiule. He is only
a young man, but 1 want to relate
two experiences of his which show
him to be possessed of a marvelous
presence of mind.
"Da October, 1890, he was engineer
of a train that was dashing through
burning forests near Lima, O., at the
rate of 60 miles an hour. That night
the sky was concealed by black storm
clouds, and before the burning dis
trict was reached the darkness from
the window of the cars seemed im
penetrable. Then, as the train pro
ceeded, the horizon Decani naziiy
red. As the train sped on nearer, the
blood red clouds appeared to be tum
bling about tumultuously, as if it were
a sea of fire buffeted by angry wmds.
At length the train seemingly plunged
into the heart of this forest of fire.
"There was a straight stretch of
track continuing for seven miles. As
the train dashed along, the fire sprang
up in sheets from crackling, falling
trees on either side, and above was a
canopy of shifting, eddying red smoke,
Down the track, beyond the reach of
the headlight, there was only a red
blur. A bridge spanning a deep river
was ahead somewhere.. Suddenly,
immediately in front, Truman saw a
shower of big sparks fly upward. In
an instant he was reversing his en
gine, and the train was brought to a
standstill just on the edge of the
river, it naa nasnea over mm wnen
he saw the sparks that the bridge
was burning, and that a spar had
fallen, sending up as it went down a
show of light. He saved the train
and the lives of 300 passengers. There
is not one engineer in a thousand who
would have arrived at the conclusion
so quickly that the additional transi
tory light was from the bridge burn
ing. They would have supposed it
was an inconsequential part of the
phenomena and plunged on to de
struction. The other incident, while not sur
rounded by the popular herolike
aspect lent by the forest fire and the
run through it, was no less heroic
and showed a far greater presence of
mind. This was in Ohio, too, near
Hepburn. His train this time was
running at about the same rate, 60
miles an hour, when the rods on each
side of the engine broke, instantly
killing the fireman and wrecking
the cab. Truman, to save himself,
jumped into the tender. And there
te was isolated, as it were, the broken
rods flying madly and beating deaf en-
mgly, and it was impossible for him
to reach an airbrake with the train
going at that speed. He is only a
young man, but he did something
then that many old engineers have
since told me they would never have
thought of. He got out his pocket-
knife and cut the hose, thereby ap
plying the automatic brake, and suc
ceeded in stopping the train. I would
rather ride behind that man," con
cluded Mr. McCullough, "than any
engineer in the United States." Chi

Peculiarities of Growing; Trees.
A tree has many peculiar charac
teristics, and some of them puzzle
the scientists, as well as the chemist
who makes the analysis. When the
leaves drop off or a twig withers and
falls, they leave a small scar, which
never disappears. A sngnt excres
cence is left to record the existence
of the missing member just as a
man who loses a toe or finger never
gets rid of the scar. There is some
times a tendency in trees of the oak
and maple species to send out from
their young limbs more wood than
they can support, and this causes
contraction at the point of insertion
or from where the stem starts out,
and the fiber becomes sometimes
twisted, so that it obstructs the flow
of sap. The young limb in such in
stances withers and drops off, leaving
all along the bough small excres
cences sufficiently large to account
for the tapering of the portion or a
branch where the death occurred.

A Mother's Love.
When the late General Butler was
in command in New Orleans, a wom
an of that city applied to him for a
pass through the Union lines that
she might see her son, who was lying
wounded in a house in the suburbs.
The general told her she could have
one if she would take the oatn ot al
legiance. This she refused to do and
argued long and earnestly against it,
breaking into a flood of tears at
length and exclaiming, "xouaonoi
know how I love my son." "Ahl"
cried Butler, with scathing emphasis,
'but you love secession better.

A SENSATION IN CHURCH.
An Inquisitive Dog Created Consternation
In a Furltan Gathering.
"Some curious stories are told in
connection with old Puritan church
customs," said Mr. Hezekiah Butter-
worth. "Some of the old customs
seem very funny as we see them
now. "It was little less than
crime not to attend church in those
old days unless detained by sickness.
In fact, a person was thought very
little of who even came late to Sun
day worship.
"One Sunday morning in early au
tumn a Puritan woman, whose repu
tation for housekeeping, spinning
and church attendance was excel
lent, was belated in her morning
work. She took her long necked
pitcher and went to the pasture
where her cow was waiting to be
milked. This duty done, she found
for she could see people on the
road that she hadn't time even to
carry the milk back to the house and
get to church in season. So she took
her long necked pitcher along with
her and sat in the gallery right near
where the singers and bass viols
were displayed. After the singing
was over and the long sermon had be
gun sermons were an hour or two
long in those days she grew sleepy.
' 'Her long necked pitcher sat on the
floor near by and near the front of
the gallery. She was soon oblivious
of either milk, sermon or a dog that
came pitpatennsr up the eallerv
stairs. The milk soon attracted the
dog. He smelled and wagged his
tail, then smelled and wagged again.
wen looked inquiringly at the uncon
scious milkmaid.. He made up his
mina very soon, and into the long
near, went the dog's head, neck too.
He couldn t get much inilk and
wanted to pull back and try again.
rui necouiant. tus nead was
wedged fast in. He pulled and used
nis paws and tried to btick awav.
Blinded of course by the pitcher, his
steps were erratic, and suddenly to
the astonished people below there
appeared a sudden parting of the
Daicony curtain, an almost blood
curdling yell was heard, and there
was a flash and downpounng, straight
in among the four unconscious dea
cons in the deacons' pew beneath, of
snow white milk, long necked pitch
er ana a milk soaked, frightened dog.
x or once there was a great awak
ening in that church, but the poor
woman was frightened nearly out of
her wits, and the superstitious dea
cons were greatly scandalized. "Bos

The Tale of the Telephone.
The first telephone that was ever
used was not electrical, nor was it a
scientific instrument in any sense of
the term. A little more than 50 years
ago the employees of a large manu
factory beguiled their leisure hours
by kite flying. Sites large and small
went up daily, and the strife was to
see who could get the largest. The
twine which held them was the
thread spun and twisted by the la
dies of the village.
One day to the tale of the largest
kite was attached a kitten, sewed in
canvas bag, with a netting over
the mouth to give it air. When the
kite was at its greatest height 200
feet or more the mewing could be
distinctly heard by those holding the
string. To the clearness of the at
mosphere was attributed the hearing
of the kitten's voice. This is the first
account we remember of speaking
along a line. Sheffield Telegraph.
A Conflict of Authority.
The late Lord Chief Justice Cock-
burn was an inveterate enemy to
drafts, and on the opening day of the
Surrey assize several years ago gave
orders that all the windows should
be closed. Upon arriving at the
court the following morning he was
surprised to find that this injunction
had been neglected, and upon in
quiring was informed that the high
sheriff was the culprit. Addressing
Mr. Evelyn, the high sheriff, he in
quired the reason. "As the high
sheriff, your lordship," replied Mr.
Evelyn, "I consider it to be my duty
to superintend the ventilation of this
court, and I have therefore directed
that the windows shall not be closed."
'As lord chief justice I consider it to
be my duty, sir," thundered Cock
burn, "to fine you 500 for disobedi
ence." And the money was paid too.
