DAVIS WAS SHUT OUT
Eut a Compromise Was Reached and
Each House Was Allowed to
Proceed Without
Bloodshed.
Davis Adjourned to Give Bhnson a Show.
Senrte Not Notified That the House
Bad Organized Adjourned
Till Monday
Salem, Jan. 22. Serious trouble
was threatened this morning when the
Davis organization met, but it was
averted. A number' of assistant
sergeant-at-arms sworn in by the Ben
son organization had remained in the
house all night, and when Davis, at
9:30, started to ascend the rostrum to
call the house to order, he was stopped
by three-of them, who forbade him in
tho name of the state of Oregon to as
cend. Davis asked by what authority
they refused to permit him to take
his chair. He was told that they had
been authorized by Speaker Benson to
allow no one to take the chair. Davis
repeated his question, and after it had
again been answered, called on the by
standers to witness what bad passed.
He then went to the other side of the
rostrum, where the same proceedings
were bad.
At this juncture a compromise was
effected by permitting Davis to take
his seat on condition that his house
adjourn before the Benson house was
called to order. The roll call showed
only seven members present.
The house then adjourned until 2 P.
, tomorrow.

Little Business Transacted Daring a Short
8ession.
Salem, Or., Jan. 22 The Benson
house held a short session, transacting
only business of a preliminary nature.
Contrary to expectation no formal no
tiee was sent to the senate asking for
recognition. The entire session
seemed to lack ginger. An adjourn
ment was taken until Monday fore
noon, instead of tomorrow, as was done
by the DavisTiouse. , - .
When the hour pf JO o'clock arrived
all the members of the Davis house
who were present withdrew, and
Speaker Benson called his organiza
tion to order. The roll call showed
31 members present.
Thomas introduced a resolution that
the chief clerk and eaeh member of
the house be furnished with a code and
house and senate journals and session
laws of the last legislature. The reso
lution further provided that all these
copies remain the property of the state
and be returned at the end of the ses
sion. The resolution was adopted by
vote of 24 to C.
Those voting against the resolution
were Bridges, Chapman, Gratke, Hud
son, Misener and Rigby.
The speaker appointed Lake, Hunt
ington and Bridges a committee of
three to prepare a schedule of wages
for the officers and employes of the
house. The house, then adjourned till
11:30 A. M. Monday.

: After a dozen or more bills were in
troduced, several motions to adjourr.
were voted down. It was evidently the
disposition of the senate to wait for the
expected joint resolution relative to
the notification of the governor, but it
was not forthcoming. vHere Patterson
of Marion had a conference with Pres

exposition, to be held in Omaha from
June to November, 1898, acting for the
exposition directors, has approved and
accepted the plans for a silver palace.
1 his palace is to be one of the impos
ing features of the exposition, and
the central figure in a portion of the
grounds to be called Eldorado.
The building is to be 400 feet square,
surmounted with mammoth ornamental
towers, and the entire structure will be
covered with rolled silver. The silver
to be used in its external decorating
will be contributed by miners of the
great west. Over 300,000 square feet
of external surface will be covered by
the precious metal.
The "oilver palace" will be used en
tirely for the display of the mineral
products and progress of the west,
The amount of pure silver to be used
in covering the walls and dome of the
mammoth building has uot been defi
nitely estimated. It will largely de
pend upon the thinness of the sheet of
pure metal that can be used for this
purpose. '

ALuOST CAPTURED WEYLEK.
The Bold Flan of Cuban Inssrjrents at
Copaste.
New York, Jan. 23. A Herald dis
patch from Havana says:
General Weyler has received his bap
tism of fire in the field. He may have
been astounded by the brilliancy of
the flash of the insurgent steel before
his very eyes. At all events, 18 of his
special escort of guides, a corps of Cu
ban negroes who enjoy the distinction
of guarding the person of the captain
general when he takes the field, have
arrived here seriously wounded with
machete thrusts. Several have since
died.
Copaste was reached after nightfall,
and a corps of guides was sent forward
to reconnoiter. General Weyler, with
the main Spanish column under Gen
eral Seguera, halted some distance out
side the village. The insurpents at
the orders of their leaders had con
cealed themselves in the town. Their
plans were evidently well laid, and it
is quite probable they might have suc
ceeded in capturing the desired prize,
the Spanish commander bimself . In
any event, from their covert they could
baye inflicted greatloss upon the Span
ish column as it entered the town un
prepared for an ambush conceived
under such unusual circumstances and
in so bold a manner.
Unfortunately for the fulfillment of
the designs of the insurgent leaders,
while the Spanish scouts were engaged
in the reconnoissance, the rifles of
some of the concealed rebels were ac
cidentally, discharged, giving the
alarm. Before the Spanish guard re
covered from its surprise, the rebels
seeing that their plans were discovered
rushed from their concealment and at
tacked the enemy with great fury,
causing severe loss in their resistless
on slaught.
Situation at Salens.
Salem, Jan. 25 The house at 3
o'clock adopted a motion to notify the
sonate that the house was ready for
business. When the message was re
ceived in the senate President Simon
stated that it-appeared to be a notifica
tion that the house was organized by
electing Benson speaker. He said he
had also received a communication
stating that the house had not been
regularly organized. In his opinion,
he said, the bouse had no legal stand
ing whatever, and believing the latter
case to be correct, he refused to allow
the message to be laid before the sen
ate or made a matter of record.
Not a word was said and the senate
immediately passed to the reading of
bills. The incident is over. It was
necessary that the house notify' the
senate and took this method, but dared
no' offer its joint resolution to notify
the governor. Just before the mes
sage reached the senate King offered a
resolution that the senate appoint a
committee to investigate which house
was the legal one, but the resolution
failed, 14 to 14. Carter and Brownell
were absent. Carter would have voted
for and Brownell against the resolu
tion. It seems that the present senate
is evenly divided on the question, but
it takes a majority to recognize. .

Many Bad the Measels.
Vancouver, Wash., Jan. 22 Super
intendent James Watson, of the school
for defective youth, reports having had
quite a serious time there with the
measels. About 50 of the pupils have
been affected by the epidemic, since
the beginning of the term, and 27 chil
dren were confined to their beds under
the doctor'B care at one time. The
6ick have the best of care, and there
have been no fatalities. Mr. Watson
says the trouble is about over, as the
patients are all nearly convalescent,
only one child being confined to its
bed. .

Cincinnati, Jan. 24. The Commer
cial Tribune special from Key West,
says:
Another defeat for the Spanish is te-
ported from Pelanos, in the Southern
part of Havana province. The place
has 1000 inhabitants, is well fortified,
and has a Spanish garrison of 600 men
with one field piece. Lieutenant-Col.
Hernandez, in command of 500 insur
gent cavalry, made a dash at the town
Monday afternoon, while the troops
were at church celebrating some local
holiday. Before they could form the
insurgents had posession of the block
house. Cannon was trained on the
church, and before the Spanish were
hardly aware of what was the trouble,
solid shot came burling through its
walls while cries of "Cuba Libre"
filled the air. Out they rushed, only
to fall before a deadly volley from a
strong force posted behind pome
neighboring bouses.
Colnel Muncio, the Spanisn officer,
bravely rallied his men, but as they
formed for a charge, he fell, with a
dozen bullets through him. The sec
ond in command took his place, but be
too, fell In a , few seconds time, the
sharpshooters of Hernandez' dealing
death with a rapidity that rendered
the troops panic-stricken. They
made one more attempt to charge the
blockhouse, but Hernaudez cavalry
reserve dasnea at - mem sweeping
through their ranks and cutting a
bloody path with their sharp mac he tee.
The Spanish then retired, it being a
rout, though a portion stubbornly pro
tected their rear, making stands until
forced to retire by Hernandez' fierce
charges. After pursuing them nearly
to Cajaio on the coast, the insurgents
withdrew. They burned the forts at
Palanos. The insurgents secured 1400
stands of arms, one cannon, $1000 in
gold and $5000 In paper money, besides
ammunition and many valuable papers
belonging to the Spanish commission
ary department.
The Sunday Session.
Salem, Or., Jan. 24 Ju3t seven
members answered the roll-call at the
Sunday session of the original house
tonight. Four of them were members
of the opposition and three Brown,
Somers and Lake, -belong to the Ben
son house! . They had no notion of
joining the opposition, but as they
were at their desks, they were unmis,
takably present, and Clerk Moody so
recorded them by direction of Speaker
Davis. The session was purely pre
functory, and after a few minute's
wait, to see if absent members would
come in, as one of the four put it, the
house adjourned till 10 tomorrow.
THE UKEAT SUIT BEGUN.
Foreclosure BUI Filed Against the Union
Pacific.
Omaha, Jan. 23. Attorney-General
Judson L. Harmon, through Special
Counsel John C. Cowln, filed in the
office of the clerk of the circuit court
of the United States at noon today a
bill calling for the foreclosure of the
government's second mortgage on the
Union Pacific main line from Omaha
to Ogden, and the Kansas Pacific from
Kansas City to Denver.
Under the rules of the court, defend
ants have until the first' Monday in
March to answer the bill.
The receivers of the Union Pacific
Trust Company and fir9t-mortgago
bondholders are made defendants.
The petition described the organiza
tion of Union Pacific, and recites all
acts of congress in relation thereto,
showing how the provisions of the
several acts have been complied with
by the company and the government.
It sets out that the amount of the first
mortgage is $29,229,000, which is repre
sented by the trustees, made defend
ants in the suit. The second mortgage
is placed at $27,236,512. It also asserts
that there has been no payment on any
of the bonds except by the government.
The petition also recites the building
of the Union Pacific bridge between
Omaha and Council Bluffs and the is
suance of bonds as provided for by a
special act of congress, . and mentions
J. Pierpont Morgan and Elisha Adkins
and the Central Trust Company of
New York as trustees for these bonds.
It says that, of the bonds yet to mature,
$15,919,512 will come due January 1,
1898, and $31,157,000 January 1, 1899;
that all other bonds have matured and
have been paid by the United States,
and that the value of the security held
is not sufficient to protect the debt.

EXERCISE FOR THE EYES.
Absolutely Necessary la Order That the
Vision May Be Preserved.
When the eyes are treated fairly
they are strengthened, not weakened,
by work, says the Philadelphia Times.
Just as the arms of a blacksmith
irrow the stronger for his trade, bo the
eyes of watchmakers who work under,
healthy conditions are found to im
prove and not to deteriorate in vigor
and quickness. It is the abuse of tho
eyes, not their use, which is to be
avoided.
If a man is aware either that Lis
eyes need no artificial correction or
else have received their proper adjust
ment, and if his work, whether liter
ary or mechanical, is done in a light
both steady and sufficient and with a
due regard as to ordinary sanitary .
rules, he may fell sure that lie is
Strengthening his eyes, not weakening
them, by hard work." Men of intel
lectual pursuits' sometimes are afraid
of losing their mental powers in old
age because they have drawn so much
upon them when young. The reverse
Is nearer the truth, and if they have
not overtaxed their brains the fear is
absolutely groundless.
The man whose intellect goes first
in old age is generally some farmer or
laborer who has never strengthened
and invigorated it by use; not the
politician, the lawyer or the man of
letters. So with the eyes. Those who
have strengthened their eyes by using
them properly keep keen sight longer
than those who have never trained
them. In the case of the man who has
neglected to give his eyes full develop
ment they will fail in power along
with his other bodily f unctions. When
however, ' the man who, born with
good eyes, has kept them in constant
bard work and yet never strained them
reaches old age, he may find them
capable of performing their functions
better than any other organ of the.,
body. , ,
