LATIN and GERMAN
Taught In This City.
GERMAN.
The undersigned desires to organize a class in
German. Every American citizen who can af
ford both time and expense ought to be master
of at least two languages. The German lan
guage has many advantages over modern lan
guages on account of her profound literature in
all branches of ancient and modern science pro
duced in her world -renowned universities.
Those who would drink from these inexhaustible
and yet unadulterated fountains or knowledge,
must master the language which contains the
key to tbem. The undersigned will organize a
class in German, ana win ucgui wnu ikiuim
work on the nrst aayor septemDer. -rne ciass
will meet two or three times a week In the
evening or when most convenient to the Dupils.
Rapid progress guaranteed to those who will
get down to earnest labor. All who desire to
participate In this work will please announce
their intention to the undersigned at an early
date, as the class will be limited to a certain
number. Charges will be very reasonable.
LATIN.
The undersigned will also organize a class In
Latin. There are so many reasons why those
who desire to advance their knowledge beyond
a common school education should take at least
a course in Latin, tnat proDaoiy everyooayis
familiar with at least some of them. I. will not
take space here to speak of the beauties of the
Latin language nor of the many advantages in
life possessed by those who have mastered it. I
will nere oniy announce my uibeuttun w urgou
izc a class in Latin. Rapid progress gjaran-
tced to those who will work hard. Charges
very reasonable. All desiring instruction in
Latin are icinaiy requesteu to auauuuue meir
intention to the undersigned before September,
if possible.
Awaiting your application, I am very respect

New York, Sept. 4. R. G. Dun &
Cos weekly review of trade will say:
There is a distinct increase of confi
dence; due largely to the continuing
heavy imports of gold, which have put
an end to money anxiety, and also to
political events, which are closely
watched, while it does not yet start
more mills and factories than are clos
iog for want of work, it crops out in
the SDeculative purchases of pig iron,
wool and some other material, by ex
perienced men, who believe that a re
vival of business is not far off, and for
the first time in nearly two months a
slight upward turn appears in prices of
manufactured products. The gain in
confidence and in willingness to lend
and invest gives reason to hope that
the necessary replenishment of stock,
which cannot be long deferred, may be
liberal enough; to stimulate fair activ
ity in trade and industry. Wheat had
suddenly risen a week ago, but reacted
with better crop news, until Thursday,
when another advance came of 1 cent,
making the net decline for the week
I cents. Western receipts continued
large, 5,512,500 bushels for this week,
against 4,550,000 last year, making the
increase since July 1 about 12,000,000,
or 53 per cent. ! Atlantic exports wore
also large, Sour included, being 2,033,-
000 bushels, against 1,347,000 last year,
and since July 1, 19,073,500 bushels,
against 11,313,650 last year, a gain of
69 per cent. Gloomy stories find little
support in the face of such returns.

Pueblo, . Col., Sept. 4. Four big
grins ia the hands of two nervy men,
-- UD 4fl men in th "ftrnnn T.iirht"
gambabg-nuie i-. v- --
city last night, and won for their dar
ing $450 in money belonging to the
proprietors of the place. . ' '
' The games were progressing as usual
when the men, wearing masks and
each having two revolvers, entered the
back door and advanced rapidly up the
room, compelling the dealers, players
and spectators tp crowd toward the
front end of the building. The tall,
slim man of the pair held the crowd at
bay, forcing them to keep up their
hands while the short, rather heavy
set robber proceeded to the faro table
and took from the drawer $325 and
some silver. Then he quickly made
his way to the crap table. Here was
piled up some $250 in silver, but the'
man contented himself with taking
only $125. At this juncture the short
man cried out to his companion to
"hold Bowen." Bowen was the night
manager of the place. '
It is presumed that their intention
was to rob the safe, but just then one
of the employes of the house who had
been out to supper, came running up

TO DESTROY KEY WEST.
General Weyier Has Approved and Sanc
tioned the Plot.
aey west, sept. 7. A letter was
received from Havana last night by
the steamer Mascotte containing the
information thr.t the Spanish author!
ties are plotting the destruction of
Key West. A cimilar report reached
here several days ago, but at that time
it was not generally believed. The
letter was written by a Cuban in Ha
vana to a friend in this city. The
writer says that a few days ago he
went to the government office in Ha
vana and was informed by a friend
employed there that Spanish authori
ties had determined to burn Key West
and annihilate that nest of "insurgent
snakes."
T'je plan of the Spanish is to send
emissaries to Key West in the guise of
Cuban sympathizers, who are to fire
the city in as many places as possible
when opportunity arise. It is said
that Captain-General Weyler is cogni
zant of the plan and approves of it. He
is reported to have said that if Key
West and Tampa were laid in ashes he
would soon be able to settle the rebel
lion. It is said that in the event of
the success of the plot Weyler has or
dered that the emissaries be paid $10,
0CX The people here are so wrought up
that it is feared an attack may be
made on Senor Gruse, the Spanish
consul and his assistant. Senor Her
nandez. Itwas reported today that
these gentlemen, becoming alarmed
for their safety, had gone aboard the
United States revenue cutter Winona
and demanded protection, and that
they were told to remain on the vessel
until the excitement died out.
The citizons have determined to
form a vigilance committee, and every
person who cannot give a good ac
count of himself will be forced tgjfi-f

Considerable. Democratic Gains are Shown
Throughout the State.
Little Rock, Sept. 7.-The weather
throughout Arkansjts was cool and
pleasant, and, from special dispatches
received by the Gazette, the indica
tions aro that a large vote was polled.
It was believed that General Dan W.
Jones' (dem.) majority for governor
will be not lees than 50,000 and may
possibly reach 60,000. In Faulkner,
Lafayette and other populists and re
publican strongholds, the democratic
county tickets were elected by safe ma
jorities. There was much scratching
in Fulton county, and the probability
is that the independent candidate for
state senator in that district has car
ried the county against Hon. Jerry

Benton Hakboe, Mich.. Sept. 6.
The most horrible holocaust, with the
greatest loss of life, known in this
part of the state occurred last night,
when Yore opera-house took fire and
in the fight to save the building and
other blocks adjoining, II firemen,
one a. volunteer, met their fate at one
time, the deaths being instantaneous
with five of them. Six lived only a
few hours in awful agony, while sever
al others met with severe injuries.
During the evening, the play, "A
Factory Girl," had been given by lo
cal talent, and the theater had closed
but a half hour before the fire was dis
covered. The building was filled from
basement to the fourth 6tory with a
suffocating smoke, which burst into
sheets of flame throughout the entire
audience-room, before the first depart
ment could respond with a single
stream of water, there beingsome con
tusion at the outset, owing to the lack
of hook and ladder facilities, although
the local fire companies had closed a
two days' tournament, exhibiting
great skill in their work.
The St. Joseph department was
called on for assistance. They ap
proached the building through an
alley, unloading ladders in the rear of
the building, and, while hoisting them
the upper walls fell over without warn-
inp, covering the-men.

Jacksonville,. Or., Sept. 5. The
20th annual reunion of the pioneer so
ciety of Southern Oregon was held at
courthouse square here Thursday.
The president, Judge 1 P- Prim; who
was just recovering from a severs at
tack of illness, waa present, but was
not able to preside, and Hon. C. C.
Beekman was called to the onalrv. The
secretary, Judge S. J. Day, read the
memorial resolutions on members de
ceased since the last annual reunion.
The death-roll contained the names
of 10 well-known pioneers, the largest
mortuary list in a single year since
the organization of the society.
K. K. Kubli, a native son, and a re
cent graduate of tho Harvard law
school, delivered the annual address,
which picturedtruthfully and graph
ically the Oregon pioneer. The ban
quet was then announced, and the pio
neers and their friends marched to the
long Hues of tables spread under the
trees in Courthouse square, where the
native sons and daughters dispendd
the hospitality of tho occasion with
generous and willing hands. The af
ternoon program was arranged by
Miss Genevieve Reames, and consisted
of vocal and instrumental music, reci
tation and short addresses, and proved
a charming ending of a most delight
ful day.
George H. Hlmes, secretary of the
state pioneer society, had honored the
occasion by his presence, and was in
troduced to the audiencs, and greeted
by prolonged applause, lie made a
short address, in response to bis cor
dial welcome, and said he was not in
any sense a speecamaker, and his
presence on this occasion was to get
historical data for his state pioneer
records. There is still a large enroll
ment of pioneers, and the 20th annual
reunion was one of tho most interest
ing and best-attended ever held by the
society.

Niagara Falls, Sept. 6. The
d.Jecial train bearing Li Hung Chang
and his party arrived here today.
At the electric power-house of the
Niagara Falls Power Company, the
distinguished visitor had an experience
with American electricity, the result
being as startling as it wa3 unexpected.
With his usual curosity and desire to
make a personal investigation of the
machinery before him, he poked at a
switchboard with his walking stick.
The metal ferule closed the circuit
instantly, and Li's stick was violently
torn from his grasp. He was naturaly
much astonished at the effect of the
stick's contac with the switchboard,
but fortunately he suffered no damage
beyond a good scare.

-f Modern Improvements la Alasaa.
In the matter of modern conven
iences Alaska is emerging from its ob
scurity and ranging np abreast of the
times. A system of electric lighting,
for instance, is being put in at Juneau,
one of the bep known of Alaskan set
tlements, r ypluce nevertheless of
onlv tv .t'sat.d inhabitants. When
corp .says the New York Post,
A- yfill be the first central
a. .trie light plant in the territory,
Electricitv. however, is not altogether
new in Alaska. It has been used for
some time in a limited way in the
mines. Water power is abundant
evervwhere, and the current is gen
erated on the streams and carried to
the mines- by cables. For Alaska,
Juneau is a live place, as the saying
is. Two new wharves are building
iust now. and the water supply, having
its source in a spring near the town, is
beinsr perfected. There is no boom, how
ever, for the reason that private capital
is repelled by the government owner
ship of the land on which Juean is
built. A petition is now in Washing
ton asking for the establishment of an
independent town site. If such action
is taken, Juneau may have work for
the unemployed to do. At present it ia
full of idle men who have gone up
there exoectint? to tret a new start in
life.
He Was No Sailor.
It is pretty hard to believe how igno
rant Borne people are about matters
with which they have no personal ac
quaintance, but there are numerous in
stances to prove. A lake steamer, on
its way from Chisago to St. Joe, eame
near colliding with a smaller boat so
near, in fact, that the fenders were
scraped. Tho boat waa drawn np to
the dock, and, while the farmers were
brincinsr on their produce, the carpen
ters were putting on new fenders. Two
farmers came np and looked at the boat
admirinclv. "That's the vessel that
will carry us over to Chicago," said one
of them. "Yes, and she'll take ns over
in a mighty little time," said the other.
"I heard she made the trip in four hours
this morning." "She'll go back in less
time than that," was the first farmer'
response. "Look at the new legs they
are putting on her."

forces Thst Will Makes Great City of
The Dalles.
From time Immemorial The Dalles
has been a natural trading and tribu
tary point, and for many years the
surrounding territory from Boise to
Astoria paid tribute. These halcyon
days have passed; other and mightier
rivals have sprungup.and today Port-...
land dominates the commerce of the
Inland Empiro and casts her shadow
of commercial supremacy over all in
spiring communities. This may be
"the survival of the fittest" but to one
who looks below the surface and can
read between the lines there are other
more potent reasons. The govern
ment evidently had faith in the fact
that there was a grand future in store
for the vast country east of the Cas
cades and supplied unstinted millions
to unlock the key and open the gate
way of the Columbia to the sea. Like
Tantalus the cup of sparkling water
has been oft set before us and as oft
eludes our grasp. Rip Van Winkle
equalled if not surpassed.and an under- ,
taking that a corporation with a dlvl- -
dend at stake would have completed in '
not less than two years is still in pro
cess of completion. But at last the
turn of the lane is reached and we are
assured upon most excellent authority
that on November 15th next the great
locks of the Columbia will open wide
their iron gates and the historic; river
unfettered and unchanged will flow
unvexed to the sea. Thus consumat
Ing a grand move forward. The future
is great with promise tjLftU - " 1 .152

it is not the purpose of the writer to

We have a force in our community
which is doing a grand work. I refer
to the Dalles Commercial and Athletic
Club, started so auspiciously a few
months ago. Organized effort is
always productive of great good to the
largest number and the Commercial
Club has done more effectlvpwork
than any organization. Nob handl
capped by a mercenary motive they
will be still further able to ler.hance
the prosperity of our city. ' It behooves
'.. merchant and real estate dealer to
also co-operate In the good work on
llaes of their own. The opening of
trie loots and the-seHlemonV of the .
political question is sure to jetart an
era of general prosperity throughout
this section of the country in particular.
A prominent man here said lhat"we
do not want a boom, no was right in'
a certain sense. Booms breed bank
ruptcy where towns of mush room
growth spring up that have no legiti
mate excuse for existence. But with
other cities it is different. A fact not
to be galnsayod is tho hundreds of
American communities have sprung
from poverty to aflluenco,from obscur
ity to fame on tho wings of aboom. In
fact it is necoesary for a town to turn
the search light of public investigation
on its resources in order to succeed at
all. Real estate dealors should espec
ially bo alive to the opportunities of
advancement. They are skirmishers
on tho picket line and on them de
volve to a large extent the task of
starting enterprises and welcoming
the new comer. Real estate cannot
be conducted' on close corporation
lines and the liberal spirit heretofore
manifested should be continued.
It behooves investory also to antici
pate and plan for an event like the
opening of the locks which is sure to
start an era of general prosperity
