frightful rate. Tbe Dsseoger ceased
their iking, and looked at each other
wi'h airaoKe tear depleted in their tacts.
Stesdi'y the momenura of tbe tram.
which was now swaying and bounding

After running a coosiderab e distance

Almost Worn Oat.
Minneapolis, March 1 The Hayward
murder trial proceeded todiy in spite of
the fact that C juoty " Attorney Nye was
confined to bis bed from nervous prostra
tion. It was remarked that tbe jury look
like ghosts after their sis weeks1 pull a
tbe case. The lawyers are worn out with
work and worry, and even the judge looks
weary and bore 4. Defendant Harry Hay
ard conies into court each morning as
fresh aod smiling as if it were a malioee

Tbe state knocked a few more props
from under tbe defence in rebuttal today.
Louis Bih m swore be was pretent at the

Washington, March 1 Whe.i the
bouse met today SO members with up
lifted srma were clamoring for ncog
nition, but all requests for unanimous
consent wete cut off by the presentation
of the conference report on fortifira'ions
appropr atioo bill, which was agreed to.
The senate amendments to the sundry
civil bill were disagreed to and it was
sent to conference tioder a suspension ot
the rules. The legislative, executive and
judical bills were also tent to conference.
Storr's bill amending toe interstate
commerce act, and which the Oppooen'a
ol the pooling bill claimed was a scheme
of the senate to tack on the pooling bill
in conference, was voted on in tbe bouse;
the vote standing 137 for to 80 against.
This looicatts tbe failure of tbe bill, a
33 less than tbe necessary two-thirds
voted for it.

Pendleton, Or., March 2 Affairs have
been interesting on tbe reservation for
some weeks ou acconot of the disagree

Ralston ia of the opinion that tbero it a
better prospect ahead for sheep in tbis Soo

bniinesa of sheep-raising except ' for those
who confine themselves to producing the
best. The growing scarcity will have a
tendency to imriovo the pnoe of mutton,
