adjourned, and that there will be
nothing now to agitate their minds
until tne regular session which con
venes in January next ' The special
session acomplished some good and
some bad work, but takeo- as a whole,
it was tbe most respectable session we
have bad for a number of years.
The Dalles Is filled to overflowing by
that class of men who toll not., but
live by their wits and the assistance of
seductive looking devices that intice
tbe unwary to fool with them in the
hopes of getting., something . for
nothing. Each recurring fair week
brings these men and their gamboling
devices, but people ion't have to pat
ronize them, so if they,-' lose their
money ; at any - of ! these ' sure-thing
games it is their own fault.

If he is a srood-

for the duties of motherhood, and taken
during the expectant period makes baby's

R J. Gorman, who was one of the
senate clerks on the printing com
m it tee, returned last night from
Salem. '
Misses Minnie Bartell, Rachel Mor
gan and Katie Seargent returned last
evening from attending the exposition
at Portland.
A J Dufur came up last night from
Portland, and left today for the town
of Dufur to look after his farming in
terests at that place.
The thugs and sure tbing men who
are here trying to fleece the people
had about as well move on. There
actions will be closely watched, and if
tney undertake to work any of their
green" games they will be promptly
locked up.
The attendance at the opening day
of the fair was fairly good, a large
cumber of people from the country
being present and the town people
who could getaway from their busi
ness went out to tnegrounas auring
the afternoon races.
Hon. W. P. Keady was in the city
last evening. Mr. Keady recently
bought an interest in the McAllister,
mine in Crook county, and is sendiug
out an assay omcer to tbe mine ana
contemplates putting up a mill on' the
mine in a short time.
George Stevens, of Lower Cascades,
recently returned from Dawson City.
and brought wiLh him one of tbete big
dogs used in Alaska for pulling freight.
The dog does not seem to be well
pleased with ' this climate, but Mr.
Stevens is glad to get back to civili
zation.
The many friends of Hansen McCoy,
who has been very ill at Dufur for
some time past, will .oe piaasea to
learn that he is improving and that he
is in a fair wa to recover.. Mr.
McCoy is an aged gentleman and it
has been a hard struggle for him to
combat with the Diseases that have
seized upon him.
The city is full to overflowing with
thugs and hard cases, but Marshal
Lauer is exercising a judicious care
over them, and It is hardly possible
for them to- do any flagrant deprada
tions without his putting a stop to
their -'eay" acts. Tbe Dalles has a
very efficient officer in Mr. Lauer, and
the residents may feel secure' so long
as he is in office.
Anotberaccident has occurred ph the
Columbia that may result in the D. P.
& A. N. Co , being deprived of the ue
of the Sarah Dixon. Near Kalama tbe
steamer Thompson ran into the Sha
fer cutting tbe latter nearly in two
rendering the latter boat useless, and
in consequence the Sarah Dixon may
be pulled off to run between Portland
and Astoria to take the place of .the
Sbafer. We trust, however, that
acother boat besides the Dixon may
be substituted for the Shafer.

McGuire Will Probably be Reappointed
First CommlHoner.
A special correspondent writing to
the Telegram from Salem says: "There
is considerable disappointment among
some of the aspirants for the office of
fit-b commissoner over the fact that
tbe commissoner is to be appointed by
the governor instead of elected by the
legislature.
Tbe power to appoint was gven
the governor in the orfniginal bill as
drafted by Mr. Curtis, but as there
was considerable opposition to this
feature it was eliminated before it was
sent to the senate. Tbe republican
.members of tbesenate.it is claimed
ly friends of L. P. Quimby. one of the
strongest men in the race, promised to
see that it was kept off. For some
reason, however, they 3aw fit to
change their minds and when the bill
came up for final passags with the
amendment attached every Multnomah
senator voted in tbe affirmative. With
this vote Mr. Quimby's hopes vanished
and he realized that he had put in al
his time for nothing. The bouse con
curred in the amendmeut, after hav
ing rejected it.
"The incorporation of this amend
ment in the law is conceded to be
equivalent to the retention In office of
Mr. McGuire,. because the can nary men
want' him. and as they are especially
interested in the law their wishes ' n
all probability will be respected."
Mr. McGuire has filled the8 office
very acceptably, and tbe only objec
tion that was raised to his reappoint
ment by the legislature was that he ie
a democrat, the majority In that body

inquiries.
The following appeared in the Wash

worthy of. consideration:
Editor Post: Please explain this:
Why did the administration leave any
thing, to be palavered over by the
Paris Peace Commission? Why did
it not lay down the terms exactly , aud
compel the Spaniards to toe the mark.
Why negotiate and discuss with them?
Why did Mr. McKinley leave anything
to be guessed at? What has , Madrid
to ao who itr wnat necessity was
there for a Peace Commission? Why
were not the terms laid down peremp
torily to start on? Why 'give tbe
Spaniards a , voice in 'determining
what wo are going to do with the; Phil

terms of the protocol simply "Skip
Quick?' W hat are our people gabbing
with the Sporlards , for? Why should
tbey have any say-so? Has not the
administration by. this blundering con
cession unnecessarily' prolonged-the
army organization, with ; the enor
mous expense of it all?' Could it not
have forced a quicker conclusion and
thus gotten rid of tbe great expeuse of

STOLE LIKE HOBOS.
Vearly Everything Movable Taken From
the State House.
The .closing of the special session of

pilfering of everything movaole, and
chat by men who are supposed to pro

of carrying it off like common thieves.
The Oregonian correspondent writing
from Salem the evening before the
adjournment, says:
There were traces of wreckage in
the house this morning, and three

have disappeared during the night. A
bint to the wise being sufficient, the
hall of representatives looks like a
deserted picnic ground to night. All
afternoon tbe members put in spa:e
moments packing the property that
had been placed at their disposal dur

and reports disappeared from the
desks, stationary became scarce in
the hall, and tobacco-chewing states
men had to hunt for cuspidores or let

away iu the cavernous depths of. bis
waste basket.. Another took bis neigh

is said, and got away with the whole

guard:ar.ship. Yet how fewcf the many
who look upon the fair picture know
of the legend connected therewith and-
the sorrowful tale of bygone times that
is interwoven by Indian history with
it. It was related to a pioneer of George
town, some thirty-odd years ago by an
old Indian with whom he camped in
Middle Park. The Indian's story, as
near as the frontiersman, who still lives
here, could remember it, is as follows:
There ivere gathered in the valley
where Georgetown now. stands in- the
early part f the century a great meet-
ir.s of the numerous tribes of Indians
of the plains and mountains that had
been at. war as far back as the oldest
chiefs cculd remember A general de
sire for peace had been- shown by the
various tribes, and the council-was for
that purpose. .
The plains Indians hadielected a pow
erful chief of the Cheyennes named
Cor-nu-co-ya, while the mountain
tribes had for a leader ' Tu-se-Tiow,
noted far and wide for his excellent
qualities in settling difficulties. Tu-se-
now broughta beautiful daughterwith
him, whose came was Tah-ki. She was
the pridei of all the mountain tribes.
and -was' known, far and wide for her
wopderful beauty. For six years the
parley lasted, and broke up in a row.
A battle was fought and won by Cor-
nu-co-ya, during which Tu-se-now was
killed! and the beautiful maiden, cap
tured. The dead, plains Indians were
borne to the plateau at- the head of
jjeavenwortn canyon- ana Duiea. a
number of years ago a prospector driv
ing a short tunnel in Trom the banks of
the . creek encountered the remains of
some of -the warriors and numerous ar
row poinits, which, goes to verify the tra
dition. . i ..
After the batile the maiden,' refus
ing- to become a slave to her captor, was
sentenced to be burned- at the stake.
This sentence was duly carried out
They not only burned her unlit life
was extinct, but until'every vestige of
her body was consumed1, and as the last
small cloud, of ascending smoke left the
spot of suffering there was a terrible
convulsion, of nature. The mountains
trembled for a moment and the whole
eastern face of what is now Republican
mountain was -burled into the valley,
burying every plains warrior beneath
the mountainous rock nestled in the
heart of the town, and now known as
Chimney rock, or Bunker hill. The
captive mountain prisoners, who wit
nessed the cataclysm from a diistact
point, cast their eyes to the mountain
that had hurled destruction upon their
enemies, and m the face of the broken
cliff saw the beautiful maiden looking
down upon them, and. for many years
after they paid! annual visits to this
beautiful valley to : worship at the
shrine of Tah-ki, the beautiful Indian
maiden. Denver Republican.
AN EVANGELIST PRINCE.
Second Son of Sweden's Kinsr Gives
Up Rank, for Love and Rclifrfon.
. Prince Oscar Bernadotte, the second
son of the king of Sweden and Norway,
who- resigned- his place in the line of
succession to the' throne in order to
marry Miss Munck, is conducting re
vival meetings m his father s domains.
He sings Gospel hymns and his wife
accompanies him on the organ or piano.
In tbe rural districts of Norway and
Sweden the pair have succeeded in
arousing much religious fervor. The
house of Bernadotte, being of an an
tiquity which dates from the time th
king's grandfather, once a private oi
marines, sold out his master Napoleor
to secure himself on the throne of thi
house of Vassa in the beginning of th
century, could not, of course, let thi
prince marry a simple gentlewomai
and still retain his right to the roya
succession. The Bernadottes have bee
in good society for so little while lha
they cannot afford to be like those tc
the manor born. So they cut off Prince
Oscar, and he and his wife are doing
good work as evangelists. Prince Os
car, besides being a good singer, is ant
exhorter of moving force, and always
stirs : up his audience to- religions en
thusiasm. . ,
- Practical Cse of Water.
In certain portioss of the west,
where -water is used for purposes
of Irrigation, experiments have been
tried in ' first utilizing- tbe water for
power. ' Suitable pumps carry it
to 'high : reservoirs, .where it is
used to generate electricity. It acquires
an enormous power by its weight and
is in no wise injured for irrigating pur
poses. . An ordinary spring constantly
drawn from furnishes a very valuable
power in this way, and after the water
has done its work either in the electric
al plant or in the turning of wheels, it
goes on its way to refresh vegetation
and make the ground productive. In
this way it performs more than ado uble
office without detriment to itself or its
original mission. N. T. Ledger., -.

In the edge of Wise county, Va., not
far from Pounl Gap, lives one of the
most scholarly men in the south. lie is
a hermit, living in a mountain cabin,
with no companion save his dogs, says
the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Forty years ago Eenry Lewis was a
leading society man of Baltimore, but
the girl whom he loved proved false.
He Sed to the old world, hoping to
drown his love amid the gay scenes of
Paris, London and Rome. Later he
went to Egypt, passed through Asia
and returned to America the day aftet
Fort Sumter was fired upon.
lie joined the confederate army and
served with distinction to the close of
the war. After the war Lewis bought
his mountain cabin and has been liv
ing the life of a recluse ever since. He
has a fine library, of which he makes
good use.
Once a month he goes to the neigh
boring village aud lays in his supplies.
He is a fine linguist and is well versed
in geology, mineralogy, ornithology,
but never talks upon these subjects un
less requested to do so by those who
visit him. ' ' ." f
Lewis is bearing 70 and is growilji
feebler every day and it can't be long
before he passes away. It is the opinion
of the country folk that Lewis is only
an assumed name and that on his deal
bed he will reveal his identity.
