So Hood River is an ''out of the way
place" is it? Possibly it Is in- the
mind of the Democrat man, who- has
pot studied the geography of Oregon
very closely. Jn reality It Is situated
mora centrally than is Albany. Jt is
on a transcontinental line of railroad
and also on the banks of the greatest
river in the northwest, Is hly 65 miles
from Portland, the metropolis of the
state, and is about as accessable as
any point in Oregon.

Sometime during last night George

house and reading the papers, and ap
parently was in sound nind. Alter
eating supper;, he retired, requestit g
the proprietor of the hotel to call him
in time to take the passenger train for
The Dalles. When the landlord en
tered his room about 11 o'elock to call
Dagart, he was startled to see him
lying on the bed with his throat ter
ribly lacerated, and two streams of
blood reaching almost across the room..
Dae-o-art was almost unconscious from
the loss of blood, but was able tospeak
The hemorrhage had ceased when the
unfortunate man was found, and a
physician was summoned from Wasco
to attend his wounds. He will be

Late Thursday afternoon young Fred

painful wound. The boys had been
playing all afternoon at the grain
warehouses on the W. & C. R. Ry,
and when the stabbing occurred were
on their way to their homes at the foot
of the penitentiary hill. The boys
were scuffling when Schonlieber, who
is 14 years of age, knocked Knudson's,
aged 13, hat off, and began throwing
stones at it. Knudson returned the
compliment, which angered Schonlie
ber and he picked up a rock and struck
the boy on the back. They clinched
and wbile Knudson was clinging
to his antagonist's back the latter

SUCCE88J?ULLT LAUNCHED.
The Mew Light Ship Umatilla Beef In the
Water.
Last Saturday the liget ship Uma
tilla Reef, built by Wolff & Zwicker at
Portland slid Into the water in the
presence of 3,000 spectators. The
launching was successfully conducted,
and as the ship started down the ways,
Miss Freda Wolff, daughter of one of
the builders, broke a bottle of cbam-
paigne over its bow, christening the
vessel Umatilla Reef. After the boat
had reached the water it was towed to
the Wolff & Zwicker iron works
where the machinery will be put in.
The lightship when completed, will
be moored on Umatilla reef, which is
in the straits of Juan de Fuca, near
Cape Flattery. A brief summary of
her dimensions is as follows:
Length over nil, 125 feet; beam 28
feet 0 inches; displacement 589 tons,
she will be equipped with a single con
densing engine, capable of developing
3 JO horse power, driven by a 12x12 cor
rugated, tubular boiler. Both en
gines and boiler were built in Wolff
& Zwicker's 6hop. The propeller is 7
feet 7 ioches in diameter, aud will
drive the boat at a speed of nine knots,
whiph s designed just to hold her
head against the storm. She will be
equipped with a complete electrical
plant, which will furnish lignt for the
two lights at her mast head. She will
also have a fog whistle and bell. The
equipment Of the boat will be modern
and complete in every particular.
Persecution, Mot Prosecution. '
For possessing certain property
rights at Celllo and for having ob
tained a verdict of $17,500 against the
government for damages to that
property by condemning the same as
right-of-way for the proposed boat-railway,
it seems that I. II. Taffe is to be
continuously persecuted. The U. S.
grand jury has indicted him for brib
ery, and three of the jurors who
awarded the damages have been in
dicted on charges of conspiracy to de
fraud the government in baying ren
dered a verdict In accordance with
their judgment. Two of the jurors in
dicted are Chas. S. Bratton and Ed
ward Killfeather. The name of the
other juror lias not yet been made
known. Mi. - Taffe is charged with
having bribed the jurors to render a
verdict in his favor and the jurors are

In- addition to the interest being ,
taken in the matter by the Oregon dele
gation, Commissioner Hermann has
recommended that all prosecrtions bo
abandoned, and that stock be permitted
to range upon the forest reserves.
Owfngto Mr. Hermann's knowledge
of the country embraced within the
reserves auU the fact that he has for
many years been a congressman from
this state, his recommendations will
no doubt have weight both with the
department aud with congress. Taken
altogether the outlook for sheepmen
with reference to summer range in the
Cascade mountains is brighter than
at any time since the reserves were
established.
JUDGE SIC'ARTHUR IS DEAD. -
Tho Able Jurist Paused Away at Walla
Walla.
Died, at the home of Levi Ankney in
Walla Walla, on Monday. May 10th,
Judge Lewis L. McArthur, aged 54
years.
Judge McArthur was born in tho
state cf New York, where his- early
life was spent and his education bad.
He came to Oregon when ayoung man,
was attracted to Baker county by the
discovery of gold there in the early
60's. In the mining camp of Auburn
the young attorney tried his first case
in an Oregon court, Messrs. A. B.
Webdell and E. G. Conant, now resi
dents of Crook county, being his
clients. The skillful manner in which
he conductedthis case won for him a
reputation, and it was but a short time
until he had established a lucrative
practice in the mining camp of Auburn.
He was Baker county's first represen
tative to the legislature, where he
served with credit, and was a few years
after made judge of the seventh judi
cial district when it comprised all of
Eastern Oregon and Its judge was an
associate justice of the supremo court.
During his incumbency of this office,
Judge McArthur was a resident of The
Dalles, and no citizen of the city was
held in higher esteem than he.
In 1885 he was appointed United
States district attorney by President
Cleveland, which position he filled
with perfect satisfaction to all. For
the past eight years deceased has been
a member of the well-known law firm
of Bronaugh, McArthur, Fenton &
Bronaugh, of Portland, and much of
the success of the firm has been due to
his individual efforts. For many years
Judge McArthur has been one of the
board of regents of the state university,
and was also lectuerer In the law and
medical jurisprudence departments of
the university. At the time of his
death he was president of the Oregon
Bar Association, a position he has held
for a number of years.
In 1878 Judge McArthur was united
in marriage to Miss Hariett Nesmlth,
daughter of the lata Senator J. W,
Nesmith, and besides his widow leayes
two sons, Clifton and Lewis,
In the death of Judge McArthur
Oregon loses one of Its best and bright
est men. His character as a public
servant and private oltizen is beyond
reproach. His life might well be em
ulated by all who hope to acquire fame
and win the esteem of their fellow men.
NO MORE TIGHT
GLOVES.
Beeanaa
They Give the Hand an
Shape In Time.
The latest article of wear dear tc
the feminine heart that the health ad-,
vocates have set the seal of their dis
pleasure on is the tight-fitting glove.
This will be distressing news to many
women who would willingly deprive
themselves of expensive lingerie in or
der to wear gloves that make more out
ward show. Women pride themselves
on exhibiting a neatly-gloved hand al
most as much as encasing their feet in
shoes which are ruinous to the natural
Shape of the feet,
They are perhaps unaware that wom
en of the stage who pride themselves
on the appearance of their hands when
ungloved, as well as when encased in
costly gloves, do not approve pinching
them with tight gloves. Bernhardt
and Terry, who are famous for the
beauty of their hands and arms, wear
long, ' Jooserwristed glpves: MisB Terr
ry. has a large hand, but it is proppr:
tioned to her figure, and she does not
squeeze either into tight compresses.
Next to wearing tight shoes and tight
corsets, the habit of squeezing the
hands into tight gloves is perhaps the
most foolish of feminine weaknesses,
And yet' interviews with promipent
glove dealers all prove that about two
thirds of their customers will insist
upon purchasing gloves from one-half
to one full size too email for their
hands, and resent any remarks that the
clerks may make that would suggest
the abandonment of this hobby. "Why,
we are even forced to suggest smaller
sizes, and make delicate remarks about
their tiny hands, in order oftentimes
to secure their favors," one prominent
dealer stated smilingly.
The wearers of tight gloves are not
always ignorant people by any means,
but they are invariably of a vain and
shallow type, who have no regard for
artistic beauty and who are martyrs
when it comes to physical suffering.
For there is certainly nothing much
more uncomfortable in the way of dress
than tight, squeezing, ill-fitting gloves,
with buttons straining to their ut
most tension and with the palm fairly
bulging out in a mass of almost purple
flesh, which has been forced into this
unnatural position. '
PWQmen-with.very long fingers near
ly always buy short-fingered gloves,"
the glove seller stated, "and then, when
the sharp, pointed nails have cut through
the ends of the fingers, they bring them
back with all manner of complaints and
there is absolutely nothing to be said
if we wish to retain their custom. A
very fine quality of kid is always more
flexible than a cheap quality; conse
quently a lady who wears- a No. 6 in
a one dollar glove can frequently wear
a five and three-quarters in a $2.50
quality, just as one can wear two or
more sizes of shoes in different makes

THE LIFE-CAR.
The rirst One Built Saved Two Hundred
Lives from a Single Ship.
He had teen planning for several
years for a life-ear, a closed vessel or
covered boat, which could be sent out to
a stiar.ded vessel on a rope and pulled
back and forth. It was to carry two or
three people. He could not see his way
clear to make this of wood; but now the
iron problem was solved, he could carry
out all his plans.
The car was built according to the
plan made by him, an inclosed, torpedo
like affair, and along in the terrible win
ter of 1340-50 it was i.laced in the care of
some untrained fishermen on the New
Jersey coast, at Squan beach. An Eng
lish ship, the Ayrshire, was wrecked
here, one day, in the midst of a blinding
sform. Tha men on the beach could do
nothing w ith their ordinary boats. The
life-car wes brougnt out. A small can
non, or mortar, was loaded with a piece
of smooth iron, several inches long, at
tached to a pile of cord. This was shot
out over the spars of the ship. The peo
ple on board hauled in the cord and
drew aloiig- through the surf a stronger
rope. This was fastened to the mast
and the life-ear was swung from the
beach, with tiio rope running through
the two rings at each end, and pulled
out to the vessel.
There were 201 people on board, and
all but one of the number were saved.
The story of 1hi3 rescue went round
the world. Ail that had been said in
praise of the inveipr's powers was now
justified. All Eurppa was interested
He was recognized by the nations of the
world as one who had dene a marvelous
work for humanity who had, as some
one said, robbed the ocean voyage of it
terrors.
