DEATH OF MRS. FRANK ROGEK8. . Passed Away at Phoenix, Ar'cona, Last Tnesday. A telegram reached Mr. Minor's family Tuesday afternoon that their daughter, Mrs. Frank Rogers, had passed peacefully away. Her con lition when she left here was such that the members of her family had the grayest apprehension, and while the announce ment was a severe shock to them, they had anticipated it. Saturday morning her husband accompanied by his little 12 year old daughter, Etta, started for her bedside in response to a telegram. In Portland they were compelled to re main over Sunday, and upon receipt of the telegram every effort was made to reach them. Telegrams from Frank McDougal are to the effect that the re mains will be held there , until the ar rival of Mr. Rogers, when it is ex pected that the remains will be shipped home. He also telegraphs that the motherless babe is hovering between life and death, which makes the situa tion distressingly sad, from the fact that the family must be seperated in retrun ing home with tne remains. Mrs. Dod-so-i of Fairhaven, Wash., started for Phosn'x Monday, hoping to arrive there to the relief of Mrs, Halleck, who has passed through this trying ordeal alone. Of a family of seven daughters and two sons this is the first loss, and it proves a sad realization to the aged pa reats and devoted members of the family. The heartfelt sympathy of the be reaved community goes out to them. The death of Mrs. Emma Rodgers, raised here where she was beloved by all associates from childhood, caused many a heartache, but the saddest of all will be with the little daughter whose devotion to her beloved mother was seemingly without a parrallel. NEW MACHINERY. The Heppner Water and Light Company In troduce New Machinery. Lost summer the Heppner Water and Light Company put in a new air oom pressor for pumping water, and this week add b 100-light dynamo, at a cost of 82500. While the effloienoy of the original p'ant was all the oompany oonld expeot, they now thoroughly appreciate the advantages of the new modern machinery and feel that their patrons will do likewise. Astbey pre limed, the gasoline light ing apparatus introduced here has proved Dot a permanent or practical competitor of eleotrioity, besides iooreas ing risks and anxiety business men O'innot afford to take.

When we take into coosid eration tba aoooyaooe of poor water and poor lights, with which other towns con tend, we (mould appreciate oar (rood fortune and lend our support to the en couragement and support of the eleotric light and water plant with which we are blessed.

Word whs received hero Wednesday evening announcing tbe death of Cap tain Orrin Starr Waud in Uiwson City on November 16, at 5:30 p. m. The news waa telegraphed from Dawson to Skng way by Mr, Morgan, engineer uuder Capt. Wand on the Yukon, to dpt. Shafer, Bt Portlund, and was brought down by steamer. On' receipt of the dispatoh Capt. Hhafer telegraphed the announcement bore to Mrs. Wand. Noth ing can be learned at present of tbe oause of death, but as tbe last letter re ceived by his family stated tbnt he was in perfeot health, it is presumed that bis illness was of short duration. When a youtb Captain Waud displayed a fondness for steamboat life, and before be was 21 yoaro of age was mate on a Willamette river steamer. The first boat bo 0'immaiided was tba Westport, which he ran for about nine months, but left the vessel to take command of the Maria Wilklni, whioh ha ran for a year under oharter. His next boat was the Clatsop Chief, wbiob be commanded until he bought the tug Portland, oper ating it for three years, and after selling it purohnsod au interest In the Governor Neuwell.

On the Yukon, as well as on the Colombia and Willamette rivers, be gaiued much popularity, and was re ooguized as one of tbe moat successful navigators on tbat dangerous stream. Caot. Waud was one of the most popular masters of a vessel wbo ever ran on tbe river. He was aff tble and oblig ing to passengers, one wbom tbe travel ing public was pleased to meet, and io whose bands people always felt safo, for so long as he was in oharge of a vessel nothing went wrong. Hooially he was one of God's noblemen; was kind, oblig ing j jvial and ever ready to leud aasisl auoe to tboss In need, a friend to the friendless and a companion to his acquaintances, He waa a member of the Elks lodge of tbis placr, and held mem bership in tbe Knigbts of Pyt'iias, Old Fellows aud Workmen io Portland. Tbe death of Capt. Waud baa canned a gloom to come over the community, for no person waa ever m're generally esieemel iu tbis place thau h, and the sympathy of all is extended to his be reaved wife, on whom the blow is doubly heavy, having come lo sudden, and she being comparatively alone with ber three cUillren, as all of her relatives live in Edglabd.

Boy Badly Cut With a Knife by a Villain at Hound KaHln, The Long Creek Eaylo tells of a brutal assault there recently. Itenys: Lant Sunday Michel Yribrry, who resides at Round Basin, dims to town with a nephew, Michel Ynberry, aged about 15 years, who bus been living on bis runoh siuce onmiug from Spain, three or four weeks ago. The boy was brought in for surgical treatment, having been cut with a knife in the face and on the side of the neck. The lad is unable to speak English, but Mr. Yriherry tells of the affair as follows: "Sunday morning, as usual, the boy went to the barn to take care of tbe horses, and had watered them and was carrying in bay to them, whioh he bad cobiingin from behind them. As he approached the manger with au armful of bay, a man raised up from the oorner of tbe stall, next to the mauger, and struck tbe boy on the aide of the face, outting down the cheek. Tbe boy dodged toward the armful of hay, but tbe villain struck at him again, this time oatcblug him on the side of the neck and mukiug unother vicious wound which nearly out bis jugular vein. At tbis time tbe boy turned and ran, screaming, to his uncle, wbo, upon bear ing him, came out half dressed and found tbe boy bleeding badly. In the meantime the villain escaped, and noth ing has been seen or beard of bim. A few footprints may lead to his identity." Who Blew lip Tho Maine. The New York World publishes a letter from Havana stating tbat the Doited tiiates ollkials, after months of secret iuvdstigatiou, hava discovered tbat the battle shio Maine was blown np by gunootton torpedoes plaoed in the bay for that purpose. The gunootton, 7()(J pounds of which was used, was sent from Haroeloua to Admiral Manterola, commanding tbe port of Havana. It was either stolen from the magazine wbcre the stulT was stored, or taken away with tbe knowledge of the officials io oharge. Admiral Manterola's record will undoubtedly show tbe names of his subordinates who bad direct control of the explosives, and in tbat way the iden tity of the authors aud the executioners of the plot to destroy the Maine may be discovered. Two or three men were engaged iu the destruction of the Maiue. A steam laurjoh of Spanish make, now used by the United Htates government in Havana harbor, conveyed the two torpedoes, according to the new evi dence, to a point to witbin a few feet of the bertb of the Mama, aud anchored them. The torpudos were kept in posi tion by moans of buoys floated 11 foe I under water, 10 feet a'tova the anchors used to preveut them from being swept away. Tbe torpedoes were exploded by contact with the Ktel of the Maiue as she swung at anchor. f-,0 UK WARD Will be paid for information leading to the arrest and conviotion of any person stealing burses branded ou b-ft houl lor witu shield under Imr.

Hkattlb, Nov. 29-With a oargo of dying horses and mules and 55 empty stalls, the United States transport Vic toria returned to port late last night, having been forced by an unprecedented BtresB of weather dir. Cape Flattery to turn baok from her voyage to tbe Philip piues. Of tbe lit) horses and mules oarried by the Victoria, leaving here November 23, 55 were literally pounded to death against tbe sides of their stalls in the storm and tbe remaining animals are so badly bruised tbat the oflloers of the vessel believe that many oannot be saved. The Victoria sailed for tbe Philippines November 23. As the straits were neared a high and dangerous sea was encountered and the ship pitohed and rolled heavily, shipping seas fore sod aft. The stress of weather increased as tbe Victoria advanced toward the open ooean. Ou the morning of November 21 the vessel was rounded just outsidethestraits with her head to tbe wiud. At i o'clock en the afternoon of that day she was tos sing on the crest of the waves described iu the log as "mountain high," and the strong gale blow thick with blinding mist, ihe transport labored heavily during tbe night, and early next morning steamed away to the west, but began o roll so dangerously that her bead was again brought rouod to the wind. Tbis day was a repetition of tbe pro ceeding day, with the addition of terriflo quails. Tbe rolling and pitohing of the ship now began lo have its effect npon tbe auimalscoufloed in their stalls. They bad been pounded from side to side until they were to a state of utter exhaustion. Several died during the night aud next morning, aud the constant attention o( Veterinary Surgeon Payne and the stock bauds seemed powerless lo save them. Under such circumstances it was deter miued, after consultation between Cap tain Michaels and his officers, to rouud the ship aud bead for Seattle. During tbe trip in several more horses died, bringing tbe number of deaths up to 55, The bodies of the animals war a weighed and thrown overboard as fast as death came. Purser Lock wood was seen tbis morn ing and said that dnriug DO voyages he has made across the Paoiflo, be has never seen such a stress of weather as was en countered by the Victoria. The furthest point reached was 2U0 miles west of Ihe cupe. While the storm was at its height oil bags were entirely emptied and every, thing done to ease tbe motion of the ship. Aside fro.n the loss of animals, no other damage was doue, the Viotoru behaving splendidly. yubacriptiona to tho Gazstto are exprcted beforo January 1, 1000, Pletine cttll iu riiJ settlo.
