la the concluding of the trial, a paper
was read on behalf ol the queen, in which
she related that she had no knowledge,
either directly or mdirectly, of the in
tended revolt, nor had she any o forma
tion concerning arms, where or bv whom
procured. She ssjs she acted of her own
free will, and was actuated by the sole
aim of doing good to ber country. The
queen expressed htr regret that danger
to women and children at the hands of
Hawaiiaog bad been reported, which she
said bad no foundation whatever. She
appeals to the court to remember that
the govern meut of Hawaii is on trial
before the world, aud that it will be
judged by the outcome. She concludes

happiness of Hawaii are in her bands.

Apia, Samoa, Jan 30 (Correspondence
of tbe United Press) Tbe event of the
mouth bas been tbe importation and sale
to rebels at Atua of rifles and ammuni
tion. Although the matter has not as yet
been fairly sifted, enough in known to
convict a German commercial nrm in
Apia of importing 113 Snyder rifles and a
large quantity of ammunition, contrary
to tbe Berlin treaty and the local arms
ordinance.
These gnns and ammunition and some
cartridges were sold to A'uan rebels.
The puree I was imported into Apia in
hollow ware cask and paint tins, and re
packed in the store ot the merchants
mentioned. A portion was landed in
Saraii, and a small qnantity at Tagalna
bavin the Atua rebel district. Before
the whole puree! bad been diepoeed of tbe
news reached the authorities.
The imperial German consul, Herr
Biermann, took immediate steps in regard
to members of the firm of Flings it
Spatsy and Captain Liffiuga, who bad
been employed in tbe delivery ot tbe
arms, i rings, paaay ana LiSGlogs were
fined the maximum penalty of 150 marks,
and the partners were compelled to de
posit witb their consul the amount ot casn
they bad received, about $1300. In
addition to this, tbe gnns at Saraii were
secured, and later on were resbipped to
Sydney from whence they originally came.
Tbe three Samoan cbiets at Straii, who
seized tor the government a portion ol tbe
guns imported, have been arrested and
charged by the German consul witb in
timidating German residents in Saran,
and compelling them to give up tbe
arms. -

Crashed Ia tne 31 ad.
Ashland, Or., Feb". 15 Fred Welle,
the 13- year-old sou of James Wells, living
three miles north of Asbland, was killed
in an unusual and abocklng manner last
evening. Early in the afternoon be left
bis farm home on horseback to herd bis
father's sheep off a neighbor's pasture, as
be bad been in he habit of doing. Not
returning at the unual time, bis folks
became anxious, aud bis father, brother
and tbe neighbor's boy started nut alter
supper to look for him. Tbe animal was
found fast in ibe mud and half dead.
Directly under the horse -and almost
buried was the' lifeless body'of tbe boy,
bis body lying lengthwise witb tbe horse
the feet to tbe horse's bead, one leg only
being exposed lo view. How tbe acci
dent happened, of course, cn only be
snrmised, but it is supposed that the
animal stumbled and tbe boy, not looking
for it, was thrown suddenly out of tbe
saddle and tbe struggles of tbe heavy
12U0-pound borse in the miry clay
crushed tbe life out ot blm almost in
siamly, as be was buried in tbe mud.

stated in tbe commons today that the
British commUcioncr at Honolulu bad
asked tbe Hawaiian government to re
pneve Rtckards, to enable a commission
er to send to tbe home government tbe
recordaof Rickarda' trial. The sentence
imposed on Rickard has not yet been
confirmed by tbe president of Hawaii,
and the English commissioner has been
instructed to ask for delay of tbe execu
tion of tbe sentence. The English com
missioner is also ies'rocted that if
Rickards is condemned without having a
fair and open trial, all evidence must be
sent to tbe borne government. The
commission is alto instructed to act in
concert with the representative of the
United Statea at Honolulu, who had re
ceived iustroctions similar to those
directed to himself.

Mllver 1st UetntsT.
Berlin, Feb. 18. The silver question
m tbe United States and Europe has been
the subject on which the. political and
financial worlds in Berlin have been
chiefly occupied during the past week
The financial troubles in tbe United
States are followed bero with tbe closest
attention and the National Zeitung,
Ciiue's Journal, and other newspapers
bave commented at various lengths upon
tbe situation at Washington .
Wednesday night, durng- tbe subscrip
tion ball at tbe Royal opera bouse, tbe
emperor showed the interest be felt in the
matter by engaging in a lenglby conver
sation with Mr. Runyon, tbe American
Ambassador, on American financial af-
ffairs. The conversation touched on tbe
tariff and political questions, but bis
majesty asked to be informed more es
pecially about tbe financial crisis, the
coinage troubles and tbe tro.d reserve
in the national treasury. On reoeiving
the information sooght, he txnressed a
hope that financial matters in Mr Run
yon's couutry would be soon straightened
out again.' lie also took occasion to re
fer te the close commercial re'aiions be
tween Germany ana tbe United States.
An important phase of the silver ques
tion was reached todav, when the resch-
stag declared in favor of tbe resolution
submitted ytsterday by Count von Mir-
bach, an Bgrari-.n leader, summoning an
other international conference on tbe cur
rency question Mirbacb'a resolution in
structed the federal government to issue
invitations for an International monetary
congress, to take action for the rehabili
tation ot silver as a circulating medium.
Previous to its adoption, Count Von Posa-dowBby-
Wegner, secretary of state for
tbe imperial treasury, in behalf of tbe
government, declared its sympathy witb
tbe obi -xt aimed at by tbe resolution .
Tbe resolution, which was submitted to
tbe reichstag by Mirbach, bad received
tbe s'gna'ures of an unusually large
number oi the 310 members of that body,
comprising conservatives, national liber
als, ultra-montaines, and members of
other parties. Among tbe signers were
to be found not only the names of pro
fessed bimetalists, but other members
wbo bave heretofore maintained a more
or less neutral attitude on "be question
of biraetalism. One of tbe signers was
tbe son of Prince Hobenlohe, tbe im
perial chancellor.
. Tne Gold lepolted. .
New YonK, Feb. 10-Of the $32,000,000
gold deposited in New York and other
cities, $1,000 000 bas been deposited out
of town, at San Francisco and Baltimore.
The $10,000,000 deposited in tbe legal
depositories, tbe First, Park and City
National banks and the Bank cf Com
merce, todav reprt sent principally the
gold holdings of these banks, wbicb
were taken from the banks' accounts and
credited on the books to tbe government
account, subject to the disposition of tbe
treasury department, it was reported in
Wall street, although tbe managers of
tbe syndicate decline to confirm the re
port, that tbe syndicate has sold $30,000,
000 worth of bond at 111, leaving
only $2,500,000 more bonds to be placed
in this country. However, a member of
the syndicate stated today that only a
comparatively small portion of tbe bonds
would be offered for sale, as tbe banks
desire to retain their bonds to a large ex
tent as a basis for new circulation when
money begins to harden later in tbe year,
as is anticipated. Tbe savings banks
are also desirons of obtaining a propor
tion of tbe bonds for investment. Bids
at 115 were made today to members of
the svndicate. but were not considered.
The managers ot tbe syndicate intend to
offer tbe bonds at a price wdicd win in
sure a quick absorption of the amount to
be told, and will not base their judgment
on any sucb isolated bids as bave been
made for small scattered lots. RusBell
Sage, who withdrew $550,000 in gold
trom the subtreasury yesterday, is not
and will not be a member of tbe syndi
cate, and none of tbe syndicate members
will take any of tbis gold from him. All
tbe members of the last syndicate who
withdrew gold from the eubtreaauty
bave been carefully excluded from the
Belmont-Morgan syndicate.
Tbe Case or Reward.
Pittsburg, Feb. 17. According to
Judge J. P. Siegel, of tbe Allegheney
county bench, the United States govern
ment baa taken a band In the intended
execution of W. T. Seward, tbe American
implicated in tbe Hawaiian revolution.
Siegel and Seward are brothers-in law.
Tbe former returned from Washington
today, where be went to interest Secre
tar Greeham in tbe case. ' After hearing
Seigel, the secretary telegraphed a mes
sage to Vancouver to catch the steamer
leaving that place for Honolulu. Be then
informed Jndge Seigel that if Seward is
not executed before the steamer arrives
President Dole will order a stay ot ex
ecution nntil tbe case can be more fully
investigated. Judge Siegel says.
"In addi'ion to calling on Secretary
Gresbam and Minister Thurston, I saw
Senators Hawley, Allison, Pla'.t, Perkins
and Batter. Hawley was M jor
Seward's chief of-staff, and is glad to aid
him. An addrees to nrestdent Dole was
prepared and sigmd by tbe United States
.enatoia. I am satisfied it will bave con
siderable weight, as Jbe Hawaiian gov
ernment want the good-will of tbe
American people."

"Tbree and one-half per cent boi;ds are
a good invest menp, and will be eagerly
sought, but they will not end the crisis.
Gold will go to a paeniium. but the

The ReonomiM says it is absurd to pre
tend that the United States is under ob-
liga'ions to pay cold. Tbe case, the
paper says, is ideatiral witb that of India
which, if it electa a gold loan, can bor
row at a leas rate than three per cent, but
has to pay an additional 1 per cent, for a
rupee loan.

Minneapolis, Feb, 18 Tbe prosecu
tion sprung a surprise In the Hayward

tbe stenographer etBltxt's attorney, who
was to testify that Bitxt stated to his
attorney in ber presence that it was with
Adrian Hayward and not with Harry

will contiadict, and it ia also understood
that - tbe state has ascertained from a
confidant of Miss Wacbter tbe true in
wardness of ber evidence.

The folio ing is an essay resd at tbe
teachers' institute lately held at Dufur, and
is published by request:
Orrgon lies midway between tbe equator
aod the north pole, and is in the northwest
ern part ot the United States. It is 290 by
390 miles in extent, aod hs an area of 96,
030 rquse miles. Oregon waa organised as
a territory in 1848, aod admitted into the
Union as a state in 1859. Tbers are two
xtenaive mountain ranges, extending from
north to south, in which are found rioU
mines of gold, silver, quicksilver and coal.
There is Mt. Hood, the monarch of our
state, which rises over 11,000 feet above tha
level of the sea, and whose crystal mantle
glistens like diamonds in tha noon-day aun.
There are Washington. Jefferson aud Three
Sisters keeping silent watoh, like sentinels.
over tha picturesque valleys below.
Europe boasts of grand scenery, beautiful
Valleys snd lakes, cool, refreshing winds,
tbe grand Alpiae mountains, with . their
proud, cold heids lost to . view in flecoy
clouds. Oregon eao boast of grander and
mors beautiful soenerv. She has her spark
ling rivers flowing tbroogh fertile valleys
and rich, produotive plains, turning the
busy wheels of our mills and fsotories,
dashing down mighty precipices, then flow
ing on on to the deep bias ocean. There
ia the Columbia, the grandest river of ths
Psoitis coast. It ia 1400 miles loog, and
flows through deep canyons, between high'
walls of solid lava, which ia wora by the .
river. The Willamette, a limpid, placid
stream, sparkling like aiiver in the summer
sunshine, aod the Snake, a large, rapid
river, dashing nn at a very rapid rata and
sweeping away everything it oan. Oregon
bas aoch fertile vallevs. oovered with soft,
green grass and decked with fragrant flow
ers, with orystal streams, reflecting back
the flower and fall, stately tree which
itrow on it banks. Between tha Coast and
Cascade ranges lies tbe beautifnl Willam
ette valley, which is about 60 by 120 mile
in extent, with the Willamette river flowing
through it. Tber is a great variety of
lovely Hjwera, and plenty of trait of al
most eyery variety. The Willamette val
ley is noted for its tall, stately fir and
maple trees. Tuere are many beautiful
lakes in Oregon, witb their deep, blue wat
ers issuing forth in a crystal river. We
have a very delightful and healthful cli
mate, with cool, refreshing winds giving a
healthy oelor to the obeeks. This delight
ful elamate ia due to a warm current whioh
washes the western c jest' of Oregon, giving
it a much milder ohmate tLao that of tha
eastern states in the same latitude. Wh at
is the leadiog staple, of which Oregon yield
a better qaality and more per acre than
most ol the states. Hnw pleasant it ia to
stand and gaze at the ripened wheat fields,
swayed to and fro by the gentle breeze.
The Willamette- valley wheat took the
prize at the World's fair, a did Oregon'
(rait also. Oregoo has a great many streams,
which are adapted to water-power machin
ery, enabling it lo become a great manufae
tonng state. The fisheries ,o Oregon an
among the beat in the world. - We. have
many varieties ot valuable timber, includ
ing pine, fir, cedar and ash. In summer w
have many beautiful flowers; our skies are
blue and sonay. We have no evelones or
earthquakes to destroy the peace and
qnietude of our minds; bat Oregon is a
place where all may dwell in peace aod
need not fear,
Where are snoh counties blessing a
here in Orrgon? Where seasons come and
go, bringing suob bountiful harvest of
fruit and grain? Where doe such perfec
tion coma to light as in fsir Oregon? God's
imile of lov are all over onr laod. Tbe
rioh and the poor, tbe great aod tb small
should all be thankful to Him for his many
gifts of love. Aua Bxu..
