The past few days an all-around
fake, who gires his name as Fredrick
El wood. : has ,been making himself
quite conspicuous in the city, pretend
ing to be an all-around mesmerist and
phrenologist. ' Last night he became
"messmerized" himself, from indulg
ing too freely, and was gathered into
the fold. After spending the night in
jail he was given an invitation to pass
on this morning.
Yew Year's eve Lloyd Montgomery
and Harry Pool, at the jail in Albany,
blackened and reddened their 'faces,
and, with blankets around them, did
the Indian act in such a lively manner
as to draw a crowd, and Anally had to
be stopped by the sheriff. Montgom
ery then had just one month in which
to live, and was evidently celebrating
the fact. Though hilarious, young
Montgomery is undoubtedly thinking
of the end. Ihere is little doubt,
though, that he will die game, says the
Albany Democrat.

LOST HIS BALANCE.
A Janitor In the Dekum Buildinc
nnrlcd
to Dentil.
A frightful accident happened at
the Deuum building in Portland Mor-
day, resulting in" the death of Fiur.k
Balcar, a janitor. He was engaged in
cloininir the outside of tuo windows
leading ijto the court on the fifth
floor, when he lost his equilibrium and
fell a distance of about 80 feet into
Liproan, Wolfe & Co's. store.
The poor fellow's coming was her
alded by the smashing of skylightglass
during his terrible descent, and for a
moment or two almost created a panic
among tho lady clerks in the estab
lishment, who imagined the shivering
of glass to be caused by an earthquake
When Baker landed on the floor of
the store, an exclamation
wont up from those nearest the scene,
In a second, though, the majority of
the small artnv of clerks were near the
prostrate form of the unfortunate man.
Dr. Andrew C. Smith was close hy
when the accident occurred, and he
volunteered his services. A super
flcial examination of Baker showed no
etterior iniurv bevond a cut in the
bin, fro ti which tho blood flowed
quite profusely a short time. But even
the unprofessional evo count detect at
i glance that Baker was suffering in
onsely. and that his struggle with
death would bp a hard one.
He never uttered a word during all
the time he was lying in the store, and
even while being removed to the hos
pital. Dr. Smith stated the man had
sustained what in all probability would
prove a fatal concussion of the brain.
Dr. Smith's diagnosis of Eaker's
ca9e was a correct one, for he died at
11 o'clock without having regained
consciousness.
Baker was a young man of very good
habits, and well thought of by those
knowing him. Ho had been employed
in the Dekum building for the past six
months, and also lodged there. He
was a single man, and a brother-in-
1 iw of Dr. L. M. Davis, of Albina. The
body wa3 takon ia charge by Fialey &
Rieger.
THIS DIMOX ALSO CAME BACK.
Indian Imitators of the b'yracasan
and
rythlas. His Friend.
One of these acts of ne,rativa virtue
which have lon beo.i regarded as
heroic was discovered in Athena by
District Attorney Lawrey, who fathers
the story of it, which he to'd to tha
Pendletou Tribune. i
Uniput aud William George, both
Indians, .are respectively the Damon !
and Pythias of the narrative. Uniput
is not a good red man, he being a little
too much iaclinel to gratify a desire
for intoxicants. A few- clays ago he(
over-indulged in liquor, and was ar
rested by Marshal Gillis and put to !
work on the streets for a pariod of ten
day?. The second day he was seen by
William George, who, iastsad of derid
ing him as is the custom of free In
dians in such events, sympathized with
him.
'Why don't you let him go and got
enough money to pay his fine?" asked
George of the marshal, turi.ing ab
ruptly from his friend.
"Can't do it Bill," was the response.,
William further interposed, but (ind-
i lg his plea to be ofvno avail, he tacked
about. "
Tmph!" he ejaculated; "if you'll
let him go I'll work until he comes
'If he doesn't come back, you'll have
to serve his Bentoace," said
mars'oal. ,
the
i
"All right. Iknowhe'll comeback."
And George let down his blanket an
inch or t.vo, and, taking Uniput's
brush, started to work.
Uniput walked down the street in a
cheerful mood'. 1 He was gone two
day?, and the marshal wasenacting the
part of Dionysius, and telling William
his friend would not return, when sud
denly Uniput put in an appearance.
He paid his Bae, and William wa3 re
leased. Then the pair walked away
arm in arm. ; .
FBU3I DCFUR.
Editor TmES-MousiAlJTEErt:
The preliminary examination of Ed.
St icy and his father before Justice
Brighara on last Monday resulted iu
the dismissal of the case ag-ainst tho
father and the holding of Ed. to appaar
before the grand jury. Dufur and
Phelps were out the day and part of
the niht in the usual technical man
ner, running the case through a
full court formula. Justice Brigham
is still meditating on some of the nice
distinctions the law makes ir. regard
to evidence that shall determine if a
crime has been committed, or who
committed it.
The school exhibition came oil in
good form to the satisfaction of a large
audience, on Saturday evening. Nearly
fifty pupils appeared upon the stage,
all of whom acquitted themselves cred
itably. The music by the Dufur or
chestra was such as only lovers of
music, after long and careful practice,
can give. Attempts at music is no
new thing among us. Mr. ' Willard
Vanderpool may neglect some things,
and now and then rc,is3 a meal, but he
never mUses an opportunity to improve
in music; and what is further com
mendable in him, he seeks to have
others to Improve in the samo depart
ment. :
Many of our young folks -are looking
forward to this evening for a rare good
time at the masquerade, and no doubt
they will not be disappointed, for those
having the affair in charge are ac
quainted with their duties.
C. P. Batch's condition still remains
critical.
