stunning blow the latter threw him
down and choked him fur a short time
when he was satisfied to go without
any further resistance. Every one
who saw the trouble was of the opin
ion that the treatment he received was
exactly what be deserved since no one
has any right to go to such a place and
raise a disturbance..

: The streets are already beginning to
take to themselves a covering of dust
which, when blown in the eyes by the
strong wind that has prevailed today,
suggests the need of the street sprink
ler. Nearly all the streets except
west Third street are in fairly good
shape, it being still muddy and rough
while the roads leading to the city are
in splendid condition for this time of
of the year. . A , little work on the
streets and. roads at this particular
time would do a great deal of good and
should not be neglected by those who
have charge of such matters.
, The. Union woolen mill, one of the
leading manufacturing Industries of
Eastern Oregon, will start up for the
year's run this week, after a shutdown
of a few weeks during the winter.' In
the meantime, 'arrangements . have
been made for operating the factory
on a much larger scale than ever.
About $4,000 worth of new machinery
has been ordered and will be placed in
the factory in a short time. The new
machinery includes tiye new looms,
another gig, and some other machin
ery that will make the Union mill sec
ond to none in the Northwest. A. E.
Eaton, the general manager, is busy
getting everything ready for a long
continuous run.
J. S. Thompson, of Fossil, Gilliam
county who recently passed through
The Dalles with a band of horses for
the Portland market, says: The winter
has been a hard one on horses, in
Gilliam county, though cattle and
sheep came through all right, as they
were fed bay. Fully one-half of the
range horses have died, and many of
them were pretty gocd animals, which
had been broken to ride or to work In
harness. ' Most of the losses were
among the younger horses yearlings
to 2-year-olds, as . the older horses,
having better teeth, could manage to
get hold of a grass- root occasionally.
There are some parties out skinning
the dead horses since they found that
the hides are worth S3 to $4 apiece.
This work cannot last long, however,
as the mild weather will soon cause
the carcasses to spoil. .

What the more Important Wltneste Said
During Three Days. j
The trial of Frank Forester, an ar
count of the first two days of which
was given last week, was continu-d un
til Tuesday evening, when the case
was given to the jury. Following is
substantially the evidence that was
given Friday evening, Saturday, Mon
day and Tuesday
When Charles Clarno was excused
from the stand Friday afterno v
after having been under the cross fire
of attorneys nearly all day, Dr. Wiley
was called, and gave testimony con
cerning the wound rrhich caused Mr.
Brogan's death.
Farquer McRae was the next wit
ness called. He was with Mr. Brogan
in Silvertooth'ssa oon when Forester,
Slim and the Mexican came In. - His
testimony coucerning the way the
trouble began carroborated tbatof Gum
but went farther, as he saw all of the
trouble, while Gum did not. After
Gum knocked Forester down, and
while Sl:m was holding Gum, Forester
rose to his feet, while Brogan started
to pick up a chair and was advanciug
toward the door, when Forester made
a rjsh' at him (Brogan) and stabbed
him with a large knife. Forester then
ran out the front door, and that was
the last seen of him by MeRae.
Several other witn ss were called to
prove the whereabouts of Brogan and
Forester the day prior to the trouble,
among tbem T. S. Hamilton, who was
with Brogan at the bowling alley
during the afternoon, an hour or so
before the killing.
Max Luddeman, who took down the
evidence of witnesses at the Inquest,
was called to the stand and testified as
to the correctness of the written
testimoney given by Charles Clarno
before the cororer's jury, which was
in conflict with that given on the
trial.
The next witnes of any importance
was Miss Ella Hamlltoo.called Saturday
morning, who testified that about 4:30
on the evening of the killing she was
passing down . the business street of
Antelope and saw two men, whom she
believed to be Brogan and Forester,
quarreling in front of the Occidental
restuarant, and heard the one sbe
thought to be Forester say "be would
have it or ho would have blood."
This was about one and one-balf hours
before 6be heard of the death of
Brogan.
W. E. Kemp, marshal of Antelope,
and E. J. Glisan, justice of the peace,
who held the inquest, were also called
and gave testimony on minor points
concerning the case.
Mrs. Taylor, who lives about three
quarters of a mile from Antelope, was
quite an Important witness, with reft r
ence to Forester's attempt to 'escape,
her testimony being that he called at
her house at about six o'clock on the
nizht Brogan was Killed and asked
for a horse, and on being told he could
not have one started up Antelope
valley on a run. '
' The last witness called by the prose
cution was Sheriff Kelly, who testified
to his going to Winnemucca, Nev.,
after Forester who had been arrested
by the sheriff of Humbolt county, his
taking Forester into custody and his
willingness to return to Oregon for the
purpose of standing trial. Here the
attorneys for the state rested their
case, and court adjourned to 1:30 in
the afternoon. .
On the reconvening of. court Max
Lnddeman was called by the defense
and an attempt was made to impeach
the testimony of Farquer MdRae, by
showing through Mr. Luddeman that
the evidence he gave befo-e the
coroner's jury at the inquest was not
consistent with the testimony given
on the trial.. Mr. Luddeman was kept
on the witnei-s stand the greater por
tion of the afternoon, the attorney's
occupying considerable time in dis
cussing what quest'ons were admiss
able to ask witness. -
! Four more witnesseswere examined
by the defense Saturday evening, C.
D. Brown, W. E. Kemp, J. B. Moore,
and E. J. Glisan.
' The testimony of Brown and Glisan
was on minor points and did not have
much bearing" on the case. Moore
testified to having heard the quarrel
between Brogan and Forester ' and
Gum and Forester prior to the killing.
According to his testimony Brogan
and Gum were the aggressors.
: When court convened Monday morn
ingJohn Brown was called and testified
that Forester bamfl to where he was
working, about 12 or 15 miles from
Antelope, between 8 and 9 o'clock the
morning after the killing. He came
and went away on foot. He had
neither hat nor coat, and his face was
bruised.
T. A. Howe testified to having heard
Brogan and Forester quarreling on the
streets in front of his shop during the
afternoon before the killing, and beard
Forester tell Brogan to "not crowd
blm too far or he would find out what
kind. of a coward he was" Brogan
was considerably nxclted at the time.
: T. S. Hamilton was next called and
stated that he and Slim . came to
Antelope together the afternoon be
fore the killing.
Levy Lembeny testified as to when
Forester came to Antelope and to bis
putting his horse In the livery stable,

standing in front of a saloon ou the op
posite side ef the street, could hear a
disturbance in Silvertooth's saloon,
and could see through a window that a
chair . was raised with the legs of the
chair upper, most.
After Mr.' Kanabe had finished
giving his testlmony.Garret McCallum
was called who at the time of the
murder was across the street from
Silvertooth's saloon. He testified
that at the time he heard the noise of
a quarrel in Silvertooth's place he
looked across the street and saw a
chair move past a window as if in some
one's hands. He started to the scene
of. the trouble, and when about one

pushed over by . McRae. He did not
know exactly what happened. He saw
Forester escape . through the front
door, aod did not see Brogan until
after the trouble, when the dying man
was layed out on a bed in the saloon. '
His memory was faulty as to what

He met the man known as the "Span
lard" In Dial's saloon, where he also
met Forester. When the trouble began
he stood at the center of the bar with
the Spaniard and Forester at his right
while the otners stood at his left.
Raymond Cbavares, the Spaniard,
was called after Slim and admitted
at the time of the altercation he was
in the saloon, having come in with
Slim and Forester about four minutes
before the trouble occurred. Slim
treated but witness did not remember
as to Brogan or tbe others using in
sulting words towards Slim. Some
words passed and he heard a noise be
hind him, and turning around, saw
Forester near the door. He caught
Brogan by tbe shoulder and told him
too keep out of the trouble. Brogan
shook him off aod the next he saw of
Brogan he was prostrate on the bed,
dying, and Forester was gone. ,
' E. J. Glisan, who testified Saturday,
was recalled and testified concerning
the location of bloodetalns on the floor
after tbe trouble. He was questioned
further concerning the trouble between
Gum and Forester, also his conversa
tion with Forester; afterwards they
went to Dial's saloon where he left
Slim and Forester conversing with one
another. "
Charles Clarno was recalled and tes
tified as to the quarrel in which Bio
gan lost his life. He stated that be

asked them to take a drink: and Bro
gan refused, speaking insolently to
Slim.
George Fagg, of Lower Trout Creek,
was next placed on tbe witness stand
and stated that he stepped into the
doorway of Silvertooth's saloon as
Brogan said "I'm stabbed." ' When
be entered it was growing dark aod he
saw no one that answered Forester's
description. .;;
George' Hammond, of Antelope, was
the next witness for the prosecution.
He was passing on tbe opposite side of
the street from . Silvertooth's . saloon
and hearing a noise, he crossed the
street. He opened the door and saw a
chair coming down towards a man who
was standing in tbe corner. The
blows were directed towards Foreeler,
but he could not see, from .where he
stood, who was handling the chair.
He saw Forester's hand go out and
then Fores'er stepped out the door
and went around the corner.'

AIT ENJOYABLE DANCING PAKTT.
Given Last Evening at the K. of P. Ball
lu Honor of Misses Williams and Stott.
Although there has been numerous
pleasant dancing parties in Tbe Dalles
during tbe past winter, still there has
been none among them all that was
more enjoyable or more fully ap
preciated, or one that was better ar
ranged for tbe pleasure of the guests i
than that given by M?. and Mrs. Hal
French at the K. of P. hall Friday
evening of last week.
The party was given in honor of
Misses Pearl Williams and Susie SUUt
of Portland, and was attended by about
twenty-five couples, principally young,
unmarried people.
The music was furnished by Prof.
Birgfeld's orchestra consisting of six
pieces and. to dance to 6ucb perfect
time and harmoneous strains was in
dettd a pleasure.
The small hall was used as head-
quarters for refreshments, where cool
ing drinks were served the guests by
''Cash," the accommodating darkey of
the Elete Tonsorial parlors, while
Mesdames Crandall, Patteison and
Deaui served tbe guests with ice cream,
cake, aod other delicacies. Shortly
after' nine tbe orchestra opened the
dancing with the sweet strains of a
waltz, and from that time until past
midnight the dancing continued, with
only the usual intermission between
numbers and the time necessary to
partake of refreshments. Those pres
ent were:
Mr. and Mrs. M. Z. Donnell, Mr,
and Mrs. J. Weigel, Misses Anna and
Bessie Lang, Dorlihea Fredden, Laura

conclusion of the program that a most
delightful time had been spent, and
that Mr. 'and Mrs. French stand first
among entertainers can not be doubted
by those who attended last evening's
party. '

B. C. Judsou.
R. C. JudsoD, Industrial agent of the
O. R. & N. railroad, passed througb
The Dalles Saturday on a business
trip. He Informs us that it is hla In
tention to hold a farmers' Institute in
this city on March 1st and 2d.
At present he Is doing everything he
can possibly do to make the institute
a succees, and one . that will be profit
able to every farmer in this section.
Mr. Judson is an untiring worker
and very successful as was plainly
demonstrated at the Wool G rowers'
convention of which he had charge
last year.
As yet he has not the program for
the Institute fully arranged, but has
already secured some of tbe best au
thorities on horticulture, moisture,
fruit and grain raislag, shipping and
numerous other subjects of great In
terest to every farmer.
The following are a list of those who
baye already been engaged to speak
at the institute, and the subjects
which they will discuss. Hon, James
Withy com be, state veterinary, on the
subject "Tillage a factor in the con
servation of moisture." This is a
subject which Is of grave importance
to tillers of the soil in this compara
tively dry climate and will undoubted
ly be listened to by all who can attend,
since tbe manner in wh ich the soli is
worked has much to do with its hold
ing the motbture, and Mr. Withy
combe will be able to give many valu
able bints in this regard.
Prof. A. B. Cordley' another able
speaker, will discuss the subject of
"Fruit Pests and Spraying ' while
Professor E. A. Lake will take for his
subject "The Coming Horticultural
Problems." "Education of the Fu

Minneapolis, Minnesota, will give our
young ladles, who are not yet thor
oughly versed in work in the culinary
department, an interesting talk on
"Cooking."
-. The meeting will be held on Wed
nesday and Thursday, ' March 1st and
2d, and will undoubtedly be well at
tended by fatmers all over the inter
lor. '
