FIKE AT LONG CREEK. f iO.iHH) Worth of Property Ooe np in Smoke. The Gazette offioe has received word from Long Creek ot a Are which oc ourred there last Friday in whioh at least 8:i0,000 worth of property was converted to asbes. The fire originated in the Masonic hall, about 2:30 in the afternoon, the resnlt ot s defeotive flue. When discovered the fire bad gained such headway that it was impossible for the well-organized bucket brigade to eubdneit, the interior of the box en casing tbe terra ootta fine being on fire from the bottom to the top of the strnotnre. Owing to tbe immense size of tbe building, the attention of tbe people was given to saving tbe contents of all adjoining structures, as it was evident that one block at least would be oonsumed, and p issibly the whole town. The general merchandise store and warehouse of W. M. Rudio, the saloon building and ioe house of Keeney Bros., and tbe stable ot F. W. Silvertooth were soon also wrapped in flames. The printing olfioe of the Long Greek Eagle, owned by The Patterson Pub. Co., was about thirty feet distance from the mammoth general merchandise establish ment of W. M. Rudio, and while it caught on fire several times, through the beroio efforts of tbe citizens of the little inland city it was saved, though the building was badly wreoked. The presses and all material and stook were removed from the building, and sustained aerions damage. The losses were about as follows: W. M. Rudio, general merchandise store and warehouse, 815,000; insurance, 810,000. Long Creek Building Association, Masonio and public ball, $4,500; insur ance, $3,000. Keeney BroB., saloon building and ioe house, $3,000; no insurance. Tbe FattersoD Pub. Co., damage to piinting office and outfit $500; fully insured. O. V. Conger, damage to general merchandise store and stock, $500; fully insured, O. H. Lee, damage to livery stable and city hall, 8200; no insurance. Mrs. Ella Hughes, damage to Monu mental hotel, 8200; insured. While the fire wiped out a portion of the town uninjured by the cyclone of last June, it was fortunate that it happened where it did, as most uf the property was lnsnred. However, suoh an experience has been the fate of many a wooden town, and Long Creek should now supply themselves with book and ladder outfit and several Baboock chemiaal fire extinguishers.

Mime, deputy collector of inter nal revenue, on Thursday afternoon went to Max Baer's store and pur chased a medium weightcane, remarking that there was a man at tbe Hotel Pen dleton whose head he desired to crack. No one who was in the store paid any attention to the remark, thinking it was merely a joke. But Mr. Minis was not joking. He bad seen during the day in tbe hotel lobby, one William Aiuslie, of Bonner's Ferry, Idaho, who was one of the Idaho party en route to Boise, With the cane in hand, Mr. Mima pro ceeded to the hotel and entered the bar room. Mr. Ainslie was at the time in tbe oflioe. Before the door at tbe en trance of tbe bar room is a large panel screen. Mr. Ainslie, ignorant of what was awlting him, entered tbe bar room from the olfioe and as he came from be hind the soreen, Mr. Mlms struck him in tbe face with tbe cane. Mr. Ainslie threw up bis bands and exolaimed: "You've made a mistake, j guess, and hit the wrong man!" Mr. Mima said nothing, but rained the blows heavily on Mr. Ainslie's head until the blood flowed freely and tbe cane was shattered. Mr. Mima then qniokly left the hotel, while bystanders oonducted Mr. Ainslie to a place where he could have his wounds batbed in order that he oould take tbe train for Boise whioh left in about an hour. Borne one proposed to swear out a warrant, but all were aoxious to get to Boise aud the matter was dropped. In explanation of the unusual and cowardly conduct in striking a man with a weapon without warning, it is said that Mr. Ainslie was proseouting attor ney in bis borne district when E. L. Mims was alleged to have been con nected with illegal voting, and in dis charging his duties was called upon to prosecute Mr. Mims on a criminal charge. It was a case of getting even. Mr. Mima' friends are severe in their condemnation of the act, and rightly. It would seem at least due a man to be told that he might expect a "thumping," in case there was going to be a personal enoounter. Chamberlain's Cougb Remedy is famous for its oures of bad colds.

The follow ing from Saturday's Mountaineer, of The Dalles, very accurately piotures the deplorahle oondition of affairs in Port land and along the O. R. & N. to that oity, as a result of the reoent snow storm: "A dispatch was received this morning from Troutdale, depicting a terrible state of affairs in Portland. The operator walked all the way from the oity, and there was Dot a telegraph pole standing for the entire distance and in many instances large trees had fallen acros the road. In Portland a terrific storm of wind and sleet prevailed yes terday, and telegraph poles all over the oity had been thrown down and fruit and shade trees had fallen in every di rection. On account of this general wreck no electrio oars were running, and the are and inoandescent lights oould not be operated. Tbe streets of tbe city were in total darkness last night no cars were running exoept tbose oper ated by cable and drawn by horses, and the two feet of snow had been crusted over by an inoh of ice. This leaves the metropolis in a worse condition than the little oountry towns. To add to this, no trains had arrived in the city for two days."
