LOST ALMA MILLEE, .
A Party Will Institute A Search For
Her
Remains Sunday.
Most of our readers will remember
the case of Alma Miller, a 6-year-old
child, who was supposed to have been
stolen by gypsies from the home of her
parents in Grand Ronde Valley a few
years ago. Mr. Miller has never given
up hope of eventually finding his
child, but recent discoveries point to
her death, and that instead of being
stolen she wandered away from home,
got lost and starved to death or was
killed by wild animals. Last week a
farmer found the skull of a child a few
miles from the Miller home, the teeth
of which show that the age of the per
son to whom it belonged was six years.
No clothing, or other bonss have yet
been found, but a searching party will
explore the country thoroughly next
Sunday. It is expected that all the
men in the valley will take part, and
that fully 500 persons will be there.

The Town of Dnfor is Forging Ahead To.
ward the Dignity of a City.
There is no prettier or more favor
ably located little town in Eastern
Oregon than Dufur, no more hospitable
and congenial people anywhere than
those who compose her citizens. At
least this is the conclusion arrived at
by the representative of the TimeS
Mountaineer, who visited that place
last Saturday. The town is very
prettily situated on the north bank of
Fifteen-Mile, on an elevated piece of
ground, with just sufficient grade to
furnish good drainage. The streets
are broad and regular, and the build
ings all substantially constructed.
Altogether it has been only about
ten years since the town sprang into
existence, it has a population of some
200 or 250, and has a school employing
two teachers and an enrollment at
present of 105 pupils; two church build
ings, the Methodist and United Breth
ren, both of which have regular church
organizations, as also has the Chris
tian church, and three fraternal soci
etiesOdd Fellows, Workmen and
Woodmen.
Perhaps the existence and growth of
Dufur Is due more to the location of
the well-known Dufur flouring mills
and the S. B. Medicine company
there than any other agents. The
flouring mills, by producing a most
excellent quality of the staple of life,
have established a reputation not only
for themselves but for the town. And
the S. B. Medicine Co.. which manufac
tures thousands of cases of its popular
remedies and sends them abroad each
year, brings the town of Dufur into
prominence. .
The mercantile business of Dufur is
conducted by Johnson Bros., who carry
a complete stock of general merchan
dise, Mrs. Warren, dealer In notions,
candles, etc., C. P. Balch, druggist,
and Brown & Edmunson, butchers.
Another prominent interest of the
place is Ward & Son's lumber yard, of
which Mr. W. H. Moore is manager,
and who is conducting a general car
penter shop also, where all classes of
scroll and other fancy wood work are
neatly executed. There are also T,
Helfrich, the shoemaker, Mr. Dicken
son, harness dealer, the Grand Central
Hotel, presided over by Mr. David But
ler, and Bohna's feed stable, which go
to complete the business interests of
the town. But no place the size of
Dufur would be complete without
village blacksmith and village school
master. The former is Mr. M. J. An
derson, than whom no more congenial
spirit ever lived. -And the education
of the future population of Dufur is
under the supervision of Prof. A,
Frazier, to whom the high standard of
the Dufur school, which has been
great factor in the building up of the
place, is largely due. -
Within the past year Dufur has had
not exactly a building boom, but a very
material growth, eight new residences
have been erected, and at present Mr.
J. A. Gulllford Is constructing what,
when completed,' will be the handsom
est dwelling In the town.
In every respect Dufur is indeed a
prosperous town, and so long as her
population is made up of such hospi
table and congenial people it must re
main an attractlye spot.

An Awful 8nake Story from Ben Oppen-
helmer.
Ben Oppenhelmer, the well-known
commercial traveler, says the follow
ing is actually true. He was camping
in Yucatan some years ago, when one
afternoon, while walking over a desert.
thinking of little but the time when he
would arrive in camp, he heard
peculiar rattling sound that seemed to
come from a pile of rocks. He at once
made an investigation and was re
warded by the discovery of a mastodon
rattlesnake, which he was on the point
of dispatching so as to put it out of its
misery, as the rocks had so fallen that
a portion of the snake's body was badly
mangled and torn. In the matter of
taking the reptile's life he hesitated,
owing to the pathetic and pleading ex
pression in the " creature's eves. It
quite unnerved him to commit murder,
so he rolled the rocks off and awaited
results, which came in the shape of
very pronounced gratitude. , The de
lighted and thankful creature wriggled
over to him and rubbed his leg with
a grateful air that moved him. Hav
ing some cotton In his valise, he bound
up the wounded part and left the snake
as comfortable as possible. Five years
later he was there again, and, in the
same locality, found the same snake,
which recognized him and insisted on
following him. He finally got back
north and had for a traveling com
panion the snake, which was allowed
to wander at will. As a natural conse
quence, Hen and nis dumb companion
became the best of chums. - - The reptile
was kept in the house and one night
when Ben had retired and left the
snake down stairs in the dining room,
he was suddenly awakened by the crash
of gliss, followed by the falling of a
heavy body. He arose in his bed only
to hear a groan and the crashing of
bones. In a flash lie bounded out of
bed, into his dressing gown and re
paired to the room from whence came
the sound of strife. Imagine his hor
ror on striking a light to see his pet
snake coiled around a man's bleeding
body, which it had lashed to the stove
and was hugging violently. On the
floor was a burglar's dark lantern and
a kit of tools, while the snake in order
to display his presence of mind, had
his tail out of the window
"What for?" inquired a llstner in
breathless excitement.
"Rattling for a policeman."
The boys of the Hotel Pendleton
have quit telling snake stories. Ben

That Many Couples Married Last Night
at the Exposition.
Hymen had his hands full -at the ex
position at Portland Monday evening,
says the Oregonian, presiding over the
nuptials of no less than four couples.
According to the best information ob
tainable, this number breaks the rec
ord of public weddings' in Portland.
Their names were: Mr. Charles F.
Bailey and Miss Lulu Meyers, both of
this county; Mr. Neil .Versteig and
Miss Lucy Zosel, of Wheatland, Yam
hill county; Mr. Charles R. Wilson
and Miss Mary E. Cabe, of Amity,
Yamhill county, and Mr. A. E. Cam
eron and Miss .uva a. .matt, oi Uor-alllB.-
; '
When the curtain rose to the music
of the wedding march from Mendels
sohn's "Summer Night's Dream," it
disclosed the four couples; seated In a
charming cottage on the seashore, for
there was a painted ocean with painted
ships, a lighthouse and a crescent moon
in the back ground.. The entrance to
the cottage was through an enormous
horseshoe of evergreens and flowers,
while directly over the front of the
stage was an enormous arch, with four
large wedding bells of roses and
chrysanthemums pendant. The fore
ground was strewn with autumn leaves,
trees, underbrush and potted plants.
artistically arranged. To make it
plain that it was a seashore scene a
large guide board to the right an
nounced that Gearhart Park was one
and one-half miles distant. Under
neath the guide-board a stiff-necked
cow browsed monotonously on a briar
bush, holding its tail the while rigidly
at an angle of precisely 45 degrees.
The cow added a delightful atmosphere
of rural simplicity to the scene.
Rev. Mr. Young used the two forms
of marriasre service of the ritual of
the Congregational church alternately.
At the conclusion of the services, Su
perintendent Hunt stepped forward
and announced that the newly married
people would receive congratulations
for a short time, and many friends
pressed up on the stage to shake hands
and offer their good wishes, after
which an avenue was made down the
center aisle, and one after another the
couples marched out, commencing
their respective bridal tours by an in
spection of the wonders of the exhibi
tion, under the guidance of Mr. Hunt
and Mr. L. L. Hawkins.

Who He Was.
When the solitary hobo was brought
before the city recorder this morning
he was asked what he had to say con
cerning the charge of being drunk and
a vagrant. The tramp rose to the oc

here last night your honor, under a
mistake., I belong in Helena, and was
on my way to the Sound in order to
get acquainted with my colleagues, but
at Spokane I got sidetracked through
the willful malice of a Northern Pacific
railroad official, and got on the wrong
train. I did not discover my mistake
until-too late and" "Who are you?"
interrupted the court, "Cut it short!"
"I am your honor -I am a mislaid
Northern Pacific railroad receiver from
Helena. I am" "Send him along"
said the court to the marshal, "His
punishment is greater now than any
can inflict," and the side-tracked re
ceiver was given a tie-pass to Portland.

ELOQUENTLY SENTENCED.
Judge Wound I'p His Hlg-h-Falutln
Speech with a Brilliant Hit.
North Dakota's Col. Plummer was in
St. Paul the other day telling stories.
He tells one about a judge, says the
Pioneer Press, that was shaken "from
NorthiDdkota to Mexico, and the peo
ple flown there, who tired of conduct
ing their own hangings, gave him a
welcome and filled him up seven times
a week. One night, after playing
poker all night on the losing side of the
table, he walked into the court with
his hair pulling. He made up his mind
to surprise the Mexico boys. There
was a poor greaser to sentence for
murder, and he let him have all he
knew right and left for an hour, and
wound up by saying:
"Hut hope is not for you. For you
the zephyrs will not successfuly combat
the ice king; the prairie will not endue
its carpet of glory, and the little brook
will never go singing and bounding on
its way to the sea for the delectation of
your soul; never again will the moun
tains assume their green crowns, and
blossom for you, Jose Marie Jararo,
for"
He looked about him and saw the
crowd in court was staring at him wild
eyed; they had never heard him in that
strain before. Most of them thought he
had gone mad.
"This won't do." he thought to him
self. "These people will think I am
crazy. Ill let 'em down easy." He
fixed bis eye again on the prisoner.
'These things are not for you, I
say; for, Jose Marie Jararo, you will
not be in it. It is the sentence of this
court that on next Friday you be hanged
by the neck until j-ou're dead cuss
your Mexican hide!"
There was a sigh of relief from the
crowd. The judge had saved himself
by a timely return to the vernacular.
AndCol. Plnmmers auditors were so
wrapt up in the story that they didn't
hear the .suggestion for an extra ses
sion. A NEW HACE IN OLD EGYPT.
Recent Discovery of Graves Bodies
Which Were Not Mummified.
What i6 absolutely novel to Egyptol
ogists is -a recent discovery made by
Mr. Quibell and Trot. Flinders Petrie
of a new race inhabiting a large por
tion of the country, over an extent of
one hundred miles, between Abydos
and Ncgada, says Harper's Weekly.
Over two thousand graves have been
opened so far and the mortal remains
found, with the various objects, open
an entirely new field of research.
Side by side with the graves of this
new race are the well-known vestiges
of Egyptian towns, with the pottery,
heads, scarabs of the fourth, twelfth,
eighteenth and nineteenth dynasties,
"exactly," as Prof. Flinders Petrie
writes, "like those found similarly
dated in northern Egypt." Here, how
ever, is the strange anomaly. There is
. o object found in these graves which
is like anything manufactured by the
Egyptians. There is not a sign of a
scarab nor has here been found on
curious illustration of Herodotus' ac
curacy in unsuspected details that
Pliny describes the same rose as found
principally in much the same district,
in the neighborhood of Philippi, the
people of which, he says, get it from
the neighboring Mount Pangaeus, and
greatly improve it by transplantation.
In the long history of roses the Pro
vence or hundred-leaved rose seems
chiefly to have formed the backbone of
continuity.
LOST FOR AGES.
Discovery of a Buried City in Turkestan
by a Party of Prussians.
In Turkestan, on the right bank of
the Amou Diara, in a chain of rocky
hills, near the Bokharan town of
Karki, are a number of large caves
which, upon examination, were found
to lead to an underground city, built
apparently long before the Christian
era. According to effigies, says In
formation, inscriptions' and designs
upon the gold and silver money un
earthed from among the ruins the ex
istence of the town dates back to some
two centuries before the birth of
Christ.
The underground Bokharan city is
about two versts long and is composed
of an enormous labyrinth of corridors,
streets and squares, surrounded by
houses and other buildings two or three
stories high. The edifices contain all
kinds of domestic utensils, pots, urns,
vases and so forth. In some of the
streets falls of earth and rock have ob
structed the passages, but generally
the visitor can walk about freely with
out lowering -his head. The high de
gree of civilization attained by the in
habitants of the city is shown by the
fact that they built in several stories,
by the symmetry of the streets and
square, and by the beauty of the clay
and metal utensils and of the orna
ments and coins.
WOMEN SAILING SHIPS. .'
Striking Illustrations of Their Capabili
ties In the Seafaring- Una. -It
is not often that a ship has been in
charge of a woman. The wife of the
captain of the Jefferson Borden took
her husband's watch occasionally when
the vessel was short handed after the
mutiny and murder of the officers. In
18(59 thp ship Denmark was brought
into port oy tne captain's wife, the cap
tain himself being laid up and in
capable of doing anything except give
advice. . Another striking illustration
of woman's capabilities in the seafar
ing line is afforded by the case of the
Dam Kebecca.Crowell, which left New
York for Buenos Ay res, but became
aisaoiea during a severe gale three
days after leaving. Several of the
spars and sails were carried away, and
the captain and first mate -were injured
to such an. extent that they were con-
nnea to tneir berths the rest of the
voyage and rendered unfit to manage
me vessel.
There was no other person on board
who understood navigation except the
captain's wife, and she undertook the
task of conducting the bark to the
point of destination.- The second mate
was a younor man twentv vears old
able to take the helm, but ignorant of
tne process or making observations.
a. nc uuuuim s wiie, tuerefore. as
sumed the command of the vessel, took
observations, calculated the latitude
ana longitude regularly, maintained
ner place on the poop, and directed the
course of the vessel. After exercisintr
control for fifty-eight days, during
wnicn uie vessel encountered violent
gales and shipped heavy seas, she con-
auetea tne vessel, -with its valuable
cargo, safely into the port of Buenos
Ayres. In this actual impersonation of
tne sweet little angel that sits un
aioit io Keep waicn lor the life of iwir
jacK, v.t- captain of the Rebecca
Crowell was indeed fortunate in his
matrimonial venture.
The Cases Similar.
Prompted by the feeling that it was
his duty," the bishop remonstrated with
one of his clergy for attending a local
hunt. "Well, your lordship," replied
the offender, "I really do not see there
is any more harm in hunting' than in
going to a ball." VI presume," an
swered hia lordship, "that you refer to
having seen my name down among
those who attended Lady Somerville's
ball, but I assure . you throughout the
whole evening I was never once in the
same room as the dancers." "That,
my lord, is exactly how I stand I was
never in the same field as the hounds."
Then the bishop sat down and silence
reigned. - -
