ftiiu akji v uii ij:. Administratrix's .otice. lias Mor' Iotvt, tiircnler Speed, tul Weight. From the desei iption, tlie ouri nitiHt resemble the old cavalry carbines:. It is six inches shorter thon tho Ktaj ami H pound lighter. Th whob bane! is covered with wood to pn vent heating, and the cleaning rod pulls out into h pike bayoiet, leaving tiie buldier free to carry an intrenching tool at his belt, in stead i.f the old scabbard bayonet. It loads and fires like the Krag, with a magazine for five rartridaes filled from a clip and a cut-off for Kingle fire. The differences are in ingenious economv of weights and a more powerful charge, behind the same weight of bullet. The net result of these charges is a gain of 300 feet per second in muzzle velocity of tho bullet, giving a total range of five miles and power to pene trate half a dozen men in line at one mile. Of course, nobody will fire at men five miles off, the extreme sighting range being a little more than one mile. But the high velocitv gives a flatter tr jectory ; that, is, the muzzle needs elevation. At 1,01)0 yards range, the bullet of tho new rifis will rise and fall before reaching the target five feet less than that of tho old Krag. This flat vertical curve is the largest element in accuracy of fire, and is what all nations are working for in army guns. The (ierman military rifle, heretofore con sidered the best, has three feet more curve than this. This short, light gun will be served out to cavalry as well as infantry, and it is hoped that the navy will adopt it bs well, so that there will be only one arm in use thtonghout alU the American forces. Thia is not only a great econo my, but a great convenience in the sup ply of ammunition in time of war. For riot purpose', this arm is to have a "mob cartridge," which will propel two round bullets only L'OO yards, thus preventing injury of distant bystanders. The sconer the national guard get it the better. Vlic;M Yield Uuod. In spite ( f unfavorable climatic con ditions which ear))- in the season stunt ed the growth of the wheat plant in Sherman and Wasco Counties, the yield, iu indicated by early threshing returns, will lie about equal to that of last ye rr, with a possibility that new acreage in Wasco may make the total output greater than that of a year ago. The yield per acre in iiheiman county is lighter than that of lust year, in most districts, but considerable new acreage in the southern part of the county will probably bring the total yield up to last year's proportions. These results may be changed by early rains at harvest, as the ctop is from two to three weeks later than usual. Prices now offered are 25 per cent higher than a vear ago, and there is very little selling. At Canada's Own anu. New York, Aug. 14. Dunkirk fisher men are aroused over the action of the captain of the Canadian revenue cutter Petrel, who turned the vessel's guns on the American tog Silver Spray, says a Herald dispatch from Dunkirk, N. Y. Drastic measures are to be used by the captains of the 20 fishing tugs of this port to protect themselves from the captain of the Petrel, whoseveral weeks ago captured and towed to rortColburn, Ontario, the tug Kitty P., which at the time was in American waters. Although secrecy is being maintained, it has become known that several of the captains are prep.ning to meet the cap tain of the Petrel at his own game. When the Canadian cutter next tries any tactics like those pet formed with the Silver Spray, it is Fair! to be not a? all unhkiey that shot will be returned for shot, and that Lake Krie will be the scene of a naval battle. TVctl.Jy Orrg.-nlan-lli ppr.tr Gazette. itwiMis icon diAifii:s. linker City Siilnwit Looted by Walk ed IMlMl. ' Bak-r City, (jr , Aug. 13. Three masked men entered the Miners' Cubin s iloon this evening at 9 o'clock and robbed the three gaining tables in the back room and the cash register in the fmnt room of $380 cosh. The robbers eirered the parabling-room through the rear door. Two of the men went through the gaming tables and the other one went into the f ont room and robbed the cash register of $30. As th leader of the gang entered the front room through the swinging screen doors, J. T. Donnelly, cashier of the First National Hank, and Bela Kadish, a mining operator, who were having a lunch in ihe rear part of the room, near the platform, observed the masked man with a gun as he pushed through the door. Donnelly and Kadish made a dash for the front door with the robber in dot i pursuit. He covered Douneliy with his gun and tried to prevent him from leaving the building. Donnelly refused to halt, and the robber did not fire at him. Kadish dodged behind the two large slot machines, but Donnelly succeeded in getting out. After Donnelly got out the robber ran behind the bar to the cash register, which he opened, and was taking the money out when Ike White, an architect, who was standing in front of the bar, picked up a cracker bowl, which he threw at the robber, striking him on the shoulder with such force that the fellow dropped a portion ot the money on the ,oor. This diversion on the part of White stopped ttie proceedings in the front room. The robber turned and ran out the back doer, where he was joined by his pals, and thev m --de g''od their escape. There were sbotit 4'.1 p -opto in the saloon an 1 gainblin-ro.iu at the time, but n.i one had a gun, or the man who entered the font rmnn could Ii ivh been captured. II wm apparently about 25 years of age. and seenit d to be new at tho business. Ho hid not have the nerve to shoot or he could lmve killed bo'h Donnelly snd White. White is an Irishman, and is always ready for a scrap. There was several hundred dollars more in the safe and considerable more in the cash register, but the robber gave up the job and beat a hasty retreat when White struck him with the cracker bowl. Val P.ildner, tho proprietor cf the sa loon, and the bartender were both be hind the counter, but they dodged out of sight when they saw the robber enter. In the gambling room the other two robbers worked swiftly but quietly. None of the men said a word. The entire transaction was over in less than three minutes. The officers can get no trace of ihe robbers tonight. Hop on the Itisc. Salem, Or., Aug. 12. It is reported that 2o cents has been offered in Salem within the last two davs for contracts for hops of the crop of 1903. While the information comes from a reliable source, the names of the men making the offer are not given. Several days ago 174 cents a pound was offered by a leading firm for contract hops, and the raise to 20 cents is said to b9 due to advices that the (ierman crop is turning out poorly. The Abundance of lice on the hop vines in Oregon yards may also have helped to raise the price, for if the lice should injure the crop, first-class hops will be scarce in this state. There has been great activity among buyerB during the last few days in their efforts to secure hop contracts, but grow ers refuse to self.
