Hicks not long ago entered a ohurch near Moscow, full of tarantula juioe, and deliberately began shooting at the minis ter, and though be emptied his pistol, failed to hit the mark. Two men then grappled with the fellow, whereupon be drew a knife and cut one badly over the eye. He then decamped and came to Pendleton. There he bad a fight, and beat a man up considerably. From there be came to Heppner, and yesterday Mike Filzgeral J and the constable found him out on P. C. Thompson's sheep ranoh wbere be bud hired to work through lambiug. This morning be was lodged in the county jail awaiting removal to Moscow. An nual School Misnira. The an nual school meeting passed off quietly yesterday afternoon. Chairman Ellis presiding and Clerk J.J. Roberta present. The minutes ot the last annual meeting weie read and approved. The financial report was then read, a copy of which will appear in our next issue. The eleo tion of a school director for a term of three yeurs being iu order, O. E. Farns worth and J. W. Morrow were plaoed in nomination. On vote being taken. Farnsworth received 26 votes and Mor row 84; total 60. J. W. Morrow was declared elected. J. J. Roberts was then re-elected clerk by acclamation. Tbe matter of sobool tax being taken up it was decided by a vote of 11 to 20 that tbe tax next year be ten mills. Tbe meeting then adjourned. The only feature ol yesterday's meeting which is to be regretted was that though 60 men felt interested ia selecting a director, only 48 stayed to vote on the more im portent question of taxes. In the latter Instance, tbe legal voters were called upon to register, which doubtless o counte to some extent tor tbe wide difference in the vote oast. Immediately after the olose of the annual meeting J. W. Morrow was sworn in and the tint meeting of the new board was held. They will meet again next Saturday. Our people are to be oongratalated on their wisdom in providing a good suffi cient tax for next year's work. Moss- back ism found no enooaragement at yesterday's school meeting. Died in Ebb Asms.

Uunotioed, she went over to one oorner ot the big waiting room and laid her bundle down on the seat, while she took a bottle of medicine from her pocket and prepared to admin ister some to her child. An exolamation of horror attracted the people in the room to the spot, and they found the young mother standing with a dead iufaut in her arms. The poor woman was turned over to the city board of charities, and the remains of the child taken in charge by Coroner Holman. Mrs. Farris states that she came to this country from Assy ria two years ego. Soon after her arrival she married a man whom she has been (oroed to snpport nntil about six months ago, when be left her in Mosoow, Idaho, For the past three months the ohild has been sick, and the poor mother has been struggling tor sufficient means to give it proper nourishment and medioinc. She oame to Portland in hopes that tbo milder olimate might bring back the child's health, but it is probable that death came to its relief before the moth er alighted from tbe train. Birthday Parti.
