, An interesting time was hsd at the
meeting of the Students' Literary
Club last night. The mock trial af
forded much amusement to spectators,
The case was tried with as much in
terest as if it had been a reality.
James Connolly, one of the heavy
: sheep raisers of Wheeler county, is in
, the city today. Mr. Connolly says be
- has never seen a more favorable out
look in the range country than the
present. . Stock is in fine condition
; and there is an abundance of hay
' everywhere, and he does not anticipate
there can be any material loss of stock
no matter how severe the winter may
be.
John Schoetzlae, proprietor of the
distillery at Hood River, is In the city.
Mr. Schoetzlae has with him some
samples of prune brandy made at his
distillery that when it gets age, will
be a fiast rate Quality. He says fruit
' was not plentiful enough this year to
justify him doing much at distilling,
but of years when there is an abun
a nee of apples anl prunes he expects
to do a good business.
The action of the city council In
, accepting the proposition of the Seu
fert & Condon Co. for putting in the
electric fire alarm system will meet
with general approval, since it will
practically connect . the system - with
every portion of the city. This com
pany has some 400 telephones on its
.local service, and the alarm system
beinsr o Derated .from their central
office is equivalent almost to a system
with 400 boxes, as alarmB can be turned
into central from every phone on the
circuit.' ' ,
Sheriff Kelly returned last night from
Gresham, . having In charge Harvey
- Kotzman, who was arrested on a charge
of having passed two forged . checks

Judge Hayes, of Oregon oity. His ex
amination will probably be held be
fore Justice Bayard next Monday. As
Mr. Kuck, one of the parties on whom
he is accused of passing a check, is out
of the city, It will be a difficult matter
to determine whether or not he is the
party wanted.

of annoyance in that city, and who
are at present in the county jail. How

Brown and Wilson, the two supposed
highwaymen confined in the county
jail. He Is convinced they are the'
men wanted in Portland for several
different robberies and holdups, ,
According to the Hood River Glacier
G. D. Woodworth has the model farm
of that valley. It is at Belmont and
consists of 35 acres in fruits with mod
ern buildings and machinery, a water
works system, a blacksmith shop and
every convenience that could make
work easy. An eye to beanty as well
as utility has directed the Improve
ments, making It a delightful home as
well as a profitable ranch.
A novel enterprise was established
at Outlook, Yakima county, the past
fall. A Mr. Mclntyre, who worked as
cook upon a ranch, during ' his leisure
time, collected 90 dozen turtles from
slough's along the river and planted
them in a pond. He fed them on fish
caught in a trap, and shipped them in
burlap sacks in th e fall to Seattle,
where he obtained 13.50 per dozen for
them.
In all probabilities the water com'
misslsslon will feel justified in pros
pecting for artesian water on the hill
south of town, as a large majority of
the water consumers and taxpayers
who nave been interviewed by Super
lntendant Crossen have signified their
desire that the commission make the
experiment. It will cost about $3000 to
sink a well, but should artesian water
be found, it would be a splendid invest
ment.
The financial statement of the First
National bank, published elsewhere In
this issue shows a healthy increase in
the business of that Institution as com'
pared with the last statement published
in September. Then the loans and
discounts were $151,041 and the total
deposit $294,648, while now the loans
and discounts are $159,856 and the total
deposits $305,366. Such an increase in
the business of the bank speaks well
for the business of the town.
They Tossed the Captain. ;
At the - regular weekly drill last
night the members of. the militia com
pany made "Borne howl" In the ar
mory. They had prepared for a
smoker" and they had It with a ven-
genca. Alter the regular arm was
through and the officers had ceased to
exercise authority over their men,
sandwiches, pipes and tobacco were
supplied and a general good time .was
entered into, but the boys of the com
pany had something more interesting
to spring on the officers. They had a
good, stout blanket, and were experts
in its use. Captain Bartell was seized
and put tnrough a drill that is not des
ignated in Upton's manuel, but it is
one that is necessary to harden the
"raw recruit" for soldier life. He was
tossed and tossed until the boys man
ipulating the blanket gave out, then it
came lieutenant Splvey's turn and the
men gave him several tosses skyward.
Others were favored with the drill,
but that part which most amused the
boys was when the captain and lieu
tenant were being sent up. At the
meeting six new members were added
to the company roster, three of them
returned volunteers from the Philip
pine war.

bearing all expense, and would charge
the city $12.50 per month for maintain
ing seven boxes, and $1.75 per month
for each additional box. The second
proposition was that the company
would allow the use of their poles and
leads for carrying the wires and would
put In the system at a cost of $206.50
to the city, and thereafter maintain

& Condon Co. wes accepted, and the
mayor and recorder were authorized,
on the part of the city, to enter into a
contract with Seufert & Condon .Co.

There are physicians who say in good
faith to those whose lungs are worn by dis
ease " It is impossible to help yon." And
yet thousands of these impossibles have
been helped and healed by Dr. R. V. Pierce
whose "Golden Medical Discovery" has
cured them, when the hollow cheek,
the rasping congh, the burning flush,
and night -sweats have all pointed to
consumption.
Ninety-eight out of every hundred such
impossible cases can be cured says Dr.
Pierce. What makes himj so sure ? Be
cause he has been curing just such cases
for more than thirty years. "Golden Med
ical Discovery " is strength to the stomach,
life to the lungs, nourishment to the nerves.
It makes new blood and the new bRfcd
builds a new body a fit temple of hearth.
There is nothing just as good as "Golden
Medical Discovery," so let no one deceive
you into accepting a substitute.
"I beg to state that I have used three bottles of
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery since my
correspondence with yon and find great im
provement in my case," writes Mr. A. F. No
votny. of New York, N. Y., (Box M37)- . ' I fl
that I am in need of no more medical assistance.
When I started to take your medicine I had a
regular consumptive cough, of which I was
afraid, and every body cautioned and warned me
concerning it. I was losing weight rapidly, was
very pale and had no appetite whatever. Now
my condition is changed entirely. I do not
couch at all, have gained eight pounds in weighti
have recovered my healthy color, and my appe
tite is enormous. I can recommend your medi
cine, as it is a sure cure, no humbug, as are
most other patent medicines."

huge mound, which is really a coopera
tive incubator, . being built by many
pairs of birds, and serving to hatch the
egga of all the bens. . tacn year tne
same flocks repair to the same mounds,
nome of which measure'50 yards at the
base and are 150 feet in circumference
The eggs are deposited about six inches
below the surface. While each hen lays
her eggs in the family mound, no hen
drops her egg closer than 20 inches to
that of her neighbor. These eggs are
deposited in a cavity made by them in
a vertical position, carefully covered,
and the surface smoothed over by the
hen before she quits the nest, says the
Philadelphia Press.
The eggs of the mallee hen are out of
all proportion to her size. They are as
large as those of a goose, and those of
large hens are very much larger.
The eggs thusflaidland covered in this
jreat sand oven in the hot districts are
never again disturbed by the hens. The
iggB are hatched by the heat the aun
bakes into the soil where they lay. It
has never been known, how the young
chicks are excavated from their egg
crave, for the eggs are deposited fully
six indies below the surface, and the
hardening rains do not aid their exit
rery much.
PERSIANS LIKE CIGARETTES.
The Shah'n Subject Are Said ta Be
Batpldlx Acquiring- the Smokv-j-.
lna; Habit.
It appears that the smoking of&
sxettes has of late years spread almost
as rapidly in Persia as in this country,
says the London Hail. Cigarette to
bacco was first introduced as an ags
ricultural product into the province of
3hilan in 1876. The sed was Imported
from Samsoun, in Turkey,, and the in
troduction of the plan b into the north
ern province of Persia has had the effect
of introducing the practice of cigarette
smoking throughout the country. It
has become so general that even the
lowest peasant now goes about with a
sigarette case and cigarette paper. Un
til quite recent years only kalians, or
nubble-bubbles, and chibouks, or long
wooden pipes with red clay bowls, were
used the former generally by the higb
sr classes and the latter by the peas
antry, laborers, mule drivers and other
people constcntly on the move and,
therefore, requiring a more portable
apparatus. The chibouk has now been
to a very large extent replaced by cig
arettes, the tobacco for this purpose be
ing cheaper than the Shiraz tumbekeo,
which is required for Kalian and onv
bouk.

TWO BAD MEN
ARRESTED
Clever Work of Sheriff
Kelly and Deputy
Howell.
Robert Wilson and Hngh Brown. Two Ex
Convlcts and All Around Crooks
Taken In by Deputy Howell.
One of the cleverest arrests that has
been made in the county for some time
was made at Davis' place, seven miles
beyond Shearer bridge, yesterday
morning by Deputy Sheriff Dell
Howell, of iChtelope, when be, single
handed and alone captured Robert
Wilson and Hugh Brown, two as tough
characters as have been allowed to run
at large in this section lately.
Last Saturday Wilson and Brown
Hired two norses oi Mr. Everett, a
livery man at Dufur, pretending that
they wanted to go after some horses
they had in a pasture near The Dalles.
In the afternoon Mr. Everetb learned
that they were going toward Deschutes
bridge, and before reaching Nansene
bad offered to trade one of the horses
to James Moore. Mr. Everett notified
Sheriff Kelly, by telephone and re
quested that he look after the men,
who were headed south.
The sheriff at once telephoned to his
deputy in Antelope, Dell Howelljto
bold himself in readiness to go In pur
suit of the horsethieyes as soon as they
should cross Shearer's bridge, and also
telephoned to Mrs. Shearer to notify
blm of their arrival there. About six
o'clock in the evening he was notified
by Mrs. Shearer shat they had passed,
and he at .once telephoned Howell to
come this way and undertake to inter
cept them if possible. Howell came to
Dead Dog that night, and by daylight
next morning was on the road. Arriv
ing at Davis' place he found his men.
And after they had eaten their break
fast he informed them they were his
prisoners. Brown went for his pistol,
a 32-calibre American bulldog, and
started to run, but Deputy Howell's
44 presented too threatening an ap
pearance and tie gave up. Howell had
only one pair of handcuffs so he put
them on Brown, who seemed to be the
worst man of the two, and put the men
on their horses, which he tied to
gether, and started for The Dalles,
making them ride ahead. Arriving at
Shearer's bridge,he left the two prison
ers, still on their horses, In charge of
two men and went inside the bouse to
telephone Sheriff Kelly of the arrest.
No sooner was he inside than the
prisoners put spurs to their horses and
started back over the road they had
come. Howell, as soon as he was
notified, gave chase, but they were out
of range of his pistol before he could
bring It to bear upon them, and a
liyely chase took place up the moun
tain. ' Mr. Howell overtook them
about two miles from the bridge, when
Wilson dropped off his horse and be
gan picking up rocks with which to
resist (he officer, but tbe 44 that
quelled Brown in the morning was
more than he could resist, and the
two men consented to accompany the
deputy back to the bridge. There Mr.
Howell again telephoned to the
sheriff, and was instructed to hire a
team and driver, handcuff the prisoners
togethor, tie their other hands behind
their backs and bring them to The
Dalles. This Mr. Howell did and ar
rived here at 12 o'clock last night.
Mr. Howell had a description of
Wilson and Brown, who are wanted by
tbe Portland police for a number of
holdups In that city, and are the men
who escaped from the police about ten
days ago by jumping out of their
boarding house window and were shot
at several times while making their
escape. He recognized them when he
found them at Mr. Davis' place and
realized that be was encountering two
desperate characters.
When they were brought to the jail
they stoutly denied their identity and
when Sheriff Kelly asked them which
one was the man who was shot (be
having been notified by the Portland
chief of police that Wilson was shot in
the (fracas with the police) tbey in
sisted that neither of them was Injures
but on exami notion It was discovered
that Wilson had three gunshot wounds
on his body, one through the calf of
the right leg, one through tbe fleshy
part of bis right arm between tbe
shoulder and elbow, and one entering
the back just below the left shoulder
blade and lodging in the point of left
shoulder. Dr. Logan was called this
morning and remoyed the bullet from
Wilson's shoulder and dressed his
other wounds. He said that from ap
pearances the wounds had been in'
fllcted a week or ten days ago, hence it
is quite evident Wilson was one of the
parties shot by the Portland police
while escaping. Another evidence
that they are the men wanted in Port
land is that when ar,ested they had
six or seven watches on them which
they threw into Deschutes river when
Deputy Howell brought them across
tbe bridge. One of the watches was
a heavy gold, open face gentleman's
watch and another was a small lady's
watch either silver or nickel. The
other watches Mr. Howell did not ex
amine.
Certainly Sheriff Kelly and Deputy
Howell deserve much credit for the effi
cient work they did in capturing these
crooks, as do all tbe people along the
line who assisted In conveying mess
ages and giying information as to their
movements.
Wilson and Brown are both ex-con'
victs, having been sent from here to
the penitentiary for two yearo each at
the November, 1897, term of circuit
court, tbey having plead guilty to
robbing or attempting to rob a lot of
Indians In the suburbs of The Dalles
They were discharged from the pen
itentiary on September 25th last, and
since that time until the past few days
had been operating in Portland. Tbe
police oi that city believe tbey were
engeged in a number of holdups and
robberies. They are a bad pair, and it
is indeed fortunate that they' have
been Intercepted.

FRICTION OF RAILWAY TRAINS
! tMK Amonit of Air la D
Along; by the Rapidly MoT
1bt Crnrm,
Prof. T. E. NIpher has recently meas
ured the frictional effect of moving
trains upon the air near them, reports
the Scientific American. His appar
atus consisted of a hemispherical cup,
which he could fix at distances up to 30
Inches from the window of a railway
carriage. The mouth of this collector
was turned toward the direction in
which the train was moving at the time
of observation, and the pressure due to
the motion was conveyed to a pressure
gnage by means of an India rubber
tube attached to the back of the collect
ing cup. The results) obtained showed
that a large amount of air is dragged
along with a rapidly moving train, the
motion being also communicated to air
many feet away. The air not only pos
sesses sufficient power to cause one to
topple over, but it also communicates a
spinning motion, tending to roll a per
son under the train if the nature of the
ground does not prevent such a result,
