A LIBERAL OFFER. A Warning to cease investigation into the murder of Domineck Abinese, an Italian, who was shot down one Sunday evening at. the close of a wedding feast in the colony, has been given John Frioeand L. G. Carpenter, city detectives, by a "black hand" letter sent the former. The mysterious missive was received yesterday after noon and bears the customary skull and crossbones. The letter is written in Italian. It closes with, "I kills you." No name is signed to the paper, but efforts are being made to trace the matter bacn to the author. The letter starts out by saying that Detectives Price and Carpenter have been entirely too active in their inquiries among the Italian colonists. It continues by savirc that the matter is none of their business, and suggests they drop the matter. If this is not done, the letter states, friends of the man who did the shooting will take it up and see that the detectives stop their investigation. The letter further states the two detacti ves are ' ' marked" ' men. Opposite the skull and cross boues is a perpendicular line and on the other side of this is a cross. The mm-der of Abinese was committed three weeks ago. I he dcuu n,an associated with a small band of Iraiiaii.i who held themselves aloof from the rest cf the colony. Abinese ha-J been to the wedding on Hood Kru rfcis-rnea hojuh. wmcn was u few Joorsavmy As he reached the door ha was shot dead. The detectives, have been unable to find the rr.au who did tr.e shooting. All the Italians of this band have stead fastly refused to crive anv informa tion. Oi-? man who saw the shooting and who it h thought could tell the story, has refused to talk. Several men were arrrsted, but they refused to throw any light on the matter. The dead man was known to have sent 8800 to bis wife in Italy. Thisraoney was secured in a mysterious manner, but the Italians are as silent on this feature as on the killing. Journal. Monument Wants Better Mail Service. Grant County Stockmen Short of Feed. This winter has in mar.v respect" been similar to the winter of 18SU when the 6tccknien of the country (suffered the great los3. Considerable apprehension is now being felt by stockrxeii over the prospects cf a hard winter on stock. Famine priceB for hay have obtained in several portions of the county and if the severity of the winter should continue there would without any doubt be a con siderable 1ub. FteJiiig started earlv in the vs inter and has continue with out a kreak and toine of those who are running suck are getting low on fpftd. It is reported that 40 ton were sold i:i Fox th?3 week for Si5 a tnn ami f 11 w t s.'Vi'ttil kH northern Part of When the people of Northern Grant County petitioned the Post-Master General last fall for a daily mail service from Heppner, that worthy official endeavored to point out to us the excellent service already given. We wish that same gentleman lived in Monument for a few weeks about this time of the year or a little later; and hid to depend upon this same excellent service to carry on his busi ness. We believe the service would receive immediately the much needed improvement. N The greater 'portion of the business of this country is done through Port land, and the daily mail from the south has a tendency to switch all the mail aronnd that way. This takes at least a day longer, even when all branches of the make route connec tions, than it would direct through by Heppner where the railroad service is good. The Southern route comes by way of Baker City and over the Sumotei Yallev R. R.. which travels both under and over most di.Ticult circum stances, and at the best is a one-horse narrow gauge contraption that is sub ject to a wreck any time and a jack rabbit could snare it off the track. Jack iCads, the Monument stasze driver makes better time. Such is the ex cellent mail service given tho people of Northern Grant. A menace to everv class of business; a stumbling block to development and poor induce ment to homeseekers. We would be satisfied with mail service once a week from the south if we had one fix times from Heopner. Let us keep a petition constantly on the road so that the officials of the postal department may at least know that we are alive and able to kick. Monument' Enterprise. Its Effect Upon the Customer ta Whom It Was Made. A business man of Dayton. O.. tells this, story of some commercial friends of bis: A customer who bought in a small way from the wholesalers and whose credit was not of the sort known ns gilt edged visited the city and pur chased a $2,S00 bill of goods, paying $2,500 in cash and giving his note for the remaining $"00. After the transaction had been closed and the paper and currency had chang ed hands the customer said: "Now, after a dc:il cf that size it Is customary to give n purchaser a pres ent. Come across with it." "We'll throw in a pair of suspen ders," laughed the salesman temporiz ingly. "A pair of suspenders, eh: Say, quit fooling. I really mean it. I expect you to do something in acknowledgment of my patronage," The salesman went to the manager with the problem, and the manager said: "Well. If he feels that way about It we misht encourage him a bit. We'll !o something that ought to please him .really. Give him back his $300 note. Make him a present of his paper; That will make him n cash customer and raise his credit and save him money besides." The salesman went back, pleased to be the bearer of such joyful tidings of liberality In business. "Well, sir." be said, "we've arranged about that present, all right. Ilere," with a flourish. "13 your note. We give It back to you." The customer did not seem enthusi astic. Instead, without looking at the note he asked: ''Is it indorsed?" "No." said the salesman In astonish ment. "Then I guess von better gimme the suspenders." said the disappointed cus tomer. Chicago News. Notice of Sheriffs Sale. HOW A HORSE GALLOPS.

The Natural Vay and the Conventional Posa In Art. How does n horse gallop? Owing to the rapidity of action it cannot be seen by the bumnn eye. However, just as the individual spokes of n rapidly re Voiring wheel can be wade vhsiblo by a flash cf lightning. s the action of a galloping noe can be and has been analyzed by Instuutuueous photogit phy. The statuette of Sysonby, the thor oughbred, has been made from photo graphs taken at the instant when nil four legs are off the ground. The back Is arched, tbe hind f;et are directed forward, the fore feet backward, so that all are tucked under the animal's body. When he limbs ngr.iu touch the ground the first to do so is one of the hind feet, which is thrust far forward so as to form nn acute angle with the line of thu body and thus serve the purpose of a spring In breaking the force of the impact of the hoof when tbe horse is going at top speed. In the conventional mode of repre senting a galloping horse all four legs are off the ground nt once, but the front pair are extended backward in such a wav that the undcrsurfaces of tlieir hoofs are directed skyward, tho body being at the same time brought near the ground. This conventional pose npp'-ars to have teen derived from a uog running. wuii tho front and hind pairs of legs are respectively ex tended forward and backward, with the soles of the hind feet turned up ward. This pose, it Is thought, was adopt ed to represent the gallop of the horse by the jro!.:.;iui:hs of Mycenae between fe'K) and IO x 15. C. whence it was transmitted by way of Persia and Si beria to China and Japan, to return In tbe eighteenth century as the re sult of commcreial reln'ions to west ern Europe. Chicago Tribune.
