An effort is being made by tho
bondsmen and friends of Howell and
Ward, says an Astoria paper, to settle
thelatter's shortage in the county's
funds. A full statement of the firm's
financial condition is being prepared

' of the county court some proposition
for making good the delinquency will
be submitted by the bondsmen.
The city council has certainly exer
' cised good business sagacity in accept
ing the bid of the Parrott-Lannenberg
Co. for lichtin? the city. Few cities
' on the coast get their lights at such a
' rate, and as no city can afford to be in
darkness, The Dalles can be congrat
ulated upon having been able to con
tract for 50 lights at $1,000 a year, or
at the rate of 920 per light, a little less
than double the price of an arc light
for a month.

queer fish, recently captured at
Yaquina, and presented by Dr. M. M,
Davis to the museum. The hsh is

has two large eyes, and protruding
from its head are numerous long, slimy
tentacles. The gills are in the back,
and are protected by a loose blanket of
flesh, which is fastened to each side of
the body. Professor Cordley says that
they are rare on this coast, but near
Japan and China they are more plentl
ful, and are used there by the natives
as an article of diet. Eastern fisher
men use the smaller species as bait.

liberal patronage I have received.

cluded they would do a little blasting
themselves at the site of the old City
Mill. They had bought some powder,
and made a mine and loaded it with a
pretty good charge of powder. But it
did not explode as quickly as they de
sired, and Theodore Prinz, a lad about
8 years of age, thought he would has
ten it. Just as he got to the mine the
powder went off, the full force of the
charge striking him in the face. His

the skin on bis face badly burned, but
it is thought his eyesight has not bee a
injured.

CROOK COUNTY MINES.
Good Returns From a Quartz Ledge on
the Head of Ochoco.
For twenty-five years there has beon
a limited amount of placer rninirjg
done on the head of Ochoc creek, in
Crook county, and considerable pros
pecting has been done for quartz,
though until recently with little en
couragement. For some time past the
McCallister Bros, have been prospect
ing a ledge in that district and a short
time ago a shipment of ore from their
mine was sent to the Tacoma smelting
works by J. W. Howard and Dr. Belk
nap, and the yield from the rock was
very satisfactory. Of the result of the
test of the ore, the Crook county
Journal says:
"The returns arrived here this week
in the form of a check for $152 28.
The exact amount of ore smelted was
4458 pounds. The yield was 3.92
ounces of gold per ton worth $20 an
ounce, and 25.7 ounces of silver per
ton worth 5S an ounce making a total
yield of $79.73 per ton. The cost of
smelting was $9 a ton and the freight
from here to The Dalles was one cent
a pound and from The Dalles to
Tacoma $25. After deducting cost of
freight from here to Tacoma and cost
of smelting there is a net balance on
this less than two tons and a quarter
of ore of more than $100."

Congressman Gills Is Mow for the Gold
Standard.
During an interview with an Oregon,
ian reporter at Baker City the other
day, Congressman Ellis was requested
to define his position on the silver
question. In reply be stated that
in this, as well aa on all other subjects
connected with national legislation, he
is guided solely by the last republican
platform, as enunciated in St. Louis,
in lune, 1896.
It was then suggested to Mr. Ellis
that among the mass of voters there
may be many who, while staunch re
publicans, may not have read that
platform. Mr. Ellis then said:
"In order that there may be no
doubt as to my construction of it, you
can say for me that if an attempt
should be made to pass a bill in con
gress, advocating tne free and un
limited coinage of silver by the United
Strtes alone, I shall most decidedly
vote against it. This is the puipose
and intent of our platform, and I shall
most decidedly vote against it, and
is tho purpose and intent of our plat
form, and I shall live up to it in every
particular. I am frank enough to ad
mit that there was a time when I en
tertained different views, but that
time has passed.'

The bold attempted robbery of the
Sparta stage on Tuesday evening,
wnicn was tnwartea in being ac
complished probably only because the
team took fright and ran away, is one
of the nerviest criminal transactions
to occur anywhere in Eastern Oregon
for many a day, comments the Baker
City Democrat. " The two masked
bandits chose as the point of their
criminal enterprise a location hardly
three miles eastward from Baker City
with its 6000 inhabitants. While the
robbers failed in their desperate de
sign, the occurrence would appear to
indicate that there may be a very dan'
gerous class of men planning to winter
in this section and perhaps inaugurate
heieabouts a regular business of rob
bery if ihey can fight shy of the law
and its officers.
These fellows will find that if caught
they will be handled without gloves by
just as determined men as those who
defended life and property with sawed-
off shotguns in the old staging days.
If there are any such desperadoes
about it may be wise for them, if they
desire to enjoy a long life, to either
abondon their projects or go to some
section where there are not so many
pioneer citizens who are dead shots
with rifle and six-shooter.
An Honored Citizen Gone.
The remains of the late John Grant,
of Antelope, were laid to rest in Sunset
cemetery this forenoon. The funeral
services were conducted at St. Paul's
church by Rev. Joseph DeForest at 10 J
o'clock and were' attended by a large
number of friends of the deceased from
Antelope and this city, who assembled
to pay a last tribute to the memory of
one of Wasco county's most honored
citizens.
Mr. Grant was born in March, 1850,
at Dean Head, Drumblade, Huntley
Aberdeen, Scotland, and served 9i
years in the York constabulary before
coming to America in 1882. He spent
a few years in Canada, then came to
Oregon, living a short time in Willam
ette valey, then came to this county,
locating at Antelope, whero he en
gaged in sheep raising. During his
residence there he held a high place
in the community, commanding the re
spect of all who knew him. He had
no relatives in this country, and so
far as in Known had only one brother
who resides in Scotland. In his death
Wasco county had lost a citizen whom
it was an honor to claim.

Familiar Faces That Are Seldom Over
looked by New Yorkers.
One of the popular habits of the peo
ple of this city is to consult the clock
almost on every occasion when an op
portunity is presented. It matters lit
tle whether any special need requires
that consultation or not, the clock will
thus be consulted. Especially is this
the case if a particular clock has the
reputation of being a good timekeeper.
So well is this known by many store
keepers that they will place clocks in
their stores so situated as to be easily
seen by persons who may 'be passing
along the adjacent sidewalk. If the
clock has a good reputation and the
pedestrian is fortunate enough to carry
a watch, a comparison is almost sure to
be made.
Many times a clock with a good repu
tation placed in the back part of a store
becomes a protection thereof, especially
at night, if near it is located a light
strong enough to illuminate its face and
show the time. A 'policeman told a
Mail and Express reporter the other
day that a good clock, thus situated, is
better tkan a private .watchman for a
jewelry store, as every belated passer-
by is likely to look through the store to
see what time it is, and "would be al
most certain to notice anything un
usual in the appearance of the place. It
therefore - becomes indirectly a silent
watchman guarding the premises
against the depredations of burglars,
and makes the pedestrians, as it were,
assistants in the work.
Church, clocks nave always had a
large number of patrons in the .work of
consultation, and nothing seems to be
so annoying as to find such a clock in
active. When an event of this character
occurs, especially if the church is lo
cated on or near a busy thoroughfare,
the fact of the clock being stopped, or
that some defect appears to exist, ia
often made the subject of a notice in
the daily papers. Especially was this
the case when the steeple of old St.
Paul's was recently undergoing reno
vation, and it was a joy to many on
noticing that the newly gilded hands of
the clock were again traveling along
their accustomed circuit, and the deep-
toned bell mas ready to strike the hour
once more. N. Y. Mail and Express.

"We left Portland Sept. 27, acd ar
