Editor Jtatkhman : Owing to illnens
and thin enervating climate, whern, as
Lord Hunting oaid of it years ago, "one
wastes, boils, and stews, eight months
out of twelve, I have been unable to meet
my press engagements. Even my pri
vate correspondence has fallen behind,
notwithstanding my efforts to the con
trary. One requires a constitution of iron to
enable him to endure this climate during
the aforesaid eight months. AVhileyou
at home were enjoying your traditional
Thanksgiving turkey and pumpkin pie,
amid loving friends and the tender asso
ciations of home, we were sighing under
tropical skies to realize that the ther
mometer stood 9 degrees in the shade.
Thanksgiving is essentially an American
institution, therefore, only one or two of
the few Americans here gave a thought to
the day and the pleasant memories sur
rounding it. This has been a very un
usually long hot season after the rains
ceased, about the 20th of October, result
ing in a good deal of sickness ; the chol
era raged here more fiercely than for
some time previous ; the death rate from
cholera alone during the month of Oc
tober averaged 50 per week. The sec
ond week in November it was C7, the
third 89, the fourth week 117; the first
week in December it was 107 and the
second 94. While we have cholera here
all the time, it is not generally in an epi
demic form, and is confined principally
to the native population, though a few
Europeans have died from cholera re
cently. The only surprise is that more
of the jioorer class of natives de not fail
victims to this fearful disease, when one
sees their mode of living in little ill-ventilated
huts huddled near together, and
bathing in artificial ponds or tanks and
drinking the water, which is in many
places, esjiecially in the suburbs, covered
with a green slime very obnoxious to
sight, and not particularly attractive to
one's olfactories.
We are now having delightful weather,
after the bright morning sunbeams dis
pel the grey mist that shrouds everything.
True, the mid-day sun is rather tropical
if one ventures out witiiout the protec
tion of an umbrella or sun topa. Driving
over the lovely roads here from 4 p. m.
until 6:110 is a delightful pastime, and in
dulged in by many thousands of people
of this cosmopolitan city, but after the
sun has disaiieared behind the horizon
a chilly dampness soon fills the air and
penetrates to the marrow oi one b bones,
if not well protected by warm wraps.
The latest sensation here was occasion
ed by the arrival of Lord and Lady Duf
ferin from their summer sojourn at
Simla, in the Himalaya and then visit-
inir through India. They were accom
panied by their youngest children just
out from England, whom theymet at
Madras. Long before the hour for their
arrival, 5 p. m. on the 14th inst., all the
ships were decorated with bunting, and
"Jack" in trim holiday attire filled the
riinmig. A vast crowd had assembled at
Prince ps Ghat (the viceroy's landing
place), and the pretty bit of green sward
lead in iJ from the Ghat to the landing was
filled with people ladies in elegant cos
tumes, military men resplendent in gilt
lace and cocked hate, oflicers and soldiers
in uniform, native nuhlemen in their
rich oriental suits, a guard of honor of
the Thirty-eighth Bengal Infantry with
band and colors were drawn up near the
landing stage. A scarlet cloth extended
from the landing over the green sward 1 3
where three splendid carriages, each
drawn by four magnificent horses, richly
caparisoned, with postillions in red and
gold uniforms, were waiting. Out side
the line the viceroy's body guards were
stationed with the mounted volunteers
to lorm the escort, while 400 native and
50 Kurojiean policemen lined the route
leading to Government House, and a
busy time they hail of it keeping the
roads clear. When the government
steamer Olive came uhreaet the Ghat a
signal gnu was tired, the crew manned
the yards, and a number of vessels in
front responded in like manner, the crews
keeping up a lively cheering until the
launch Clytic landed his excellency.
The scene on the mighty river was a pic
ture of animation and beauty, with its
gallant row of stalely ships, the lb.e dis
play of many colored flags, and the
brightly-vested crowds of natives on the
shore nil made a scene pleasing to the
eye. Sir Kivers Thompson, the lieuten
ant governor, received the royal party.
They slowly advanced up the scarlet
cloth smiling and bowing to all. and giving-
a lieartv handshake to those with
whom thev were aruuainted. Lady JJuf-
feriu wore a brown traveling suit with
iKinnet to match. She has a sweet face
with lovely dark eyes, is very winning
and uracious in tier manner. She is a roy
ally pure and noble woman, dearly bet
loved by the people of India for her un
selfish, untiring devotion in behalf of the
women of India, in establishing female
medical schools for their benetit. Jjrd
Ihitl'eriii was most cordially welcomed.
He is genial and pleasant, and has
proven hinisWl a man of rare executive
and diplomatic ability. They were lol
loped by their daughter, Lady llermione
JSlackwood, a graceful young ladv, with
her mamma's pretty dark eyes and gen
tle manner. She was accompanied by
hr little sister, 1, aily Victoria, a bright
little girl f perhaps K or 10 yeurs of aue,
who looked in auiused surprise at the
great throng pressing on either side of
, the scarlet cloth. She made some naive
reinurk, which causnd Lady llerniione
to answer with a clear, sweet laugh that
rippled across the crimson lips as mer
rily as if she were au American girl.
They were followed by their brothers,
Hon. Terence, liusil, and Frederick lilack
wood, the younger carrying his dog in
his arms and looking with utinoat sail it
foid at the entire show . The party passed
up and entered the carriages in waiting
and were driven rapidly away, followed
by the well mounted body guard in red
and gold uniforms with long lances tipped
with gay little pennons. Last year, and
every year, the same scene is enacted,
and "Peck's Had Boy" ecntentiously re
marks "its nearly as good as a circus."
The Government House is a massive
saffron colored quadrangular building,
and presents a fine appearance with its
"sweeping front and flanks," its British
lion crouching over the great gateways,
and its great dome from which floats the
viceregal nag during the viceroy's stay
in Calcutta. Inside the walls of this
noble mansion the sense of vastness
clings to one almost unconsciously.
There are magnificent halls and saloons,
and many great windows from which
one can look out upon the beautiful
scenery and down upon the splendid
usters of beautiful trees, and flowery
parterres that surround this palatial
home of England's chief representative
in India, .belvedere, the home oi the
lieutenant governor, is situated about
three miles from the city near Alipore
and the Zoological gardens, and is a
most picturesque and attractive building.

wno know that near here nearly opposite
the Alipore bridge stand two trees called
the "Trees of Destruction," notorious for
the duels fought under the shade, here

Francis, author of the famous Junius
letters, fouirht their celebrated duel.
Calcutta is very gay now. Society
is on the qui vive and the "shop
keepers" are "gathering in" the rupees
at a lively rate. The season is opened
by Lord DufTarin's levee, followed in a
few days by Lady Duflerin's drawing
room, then dinners, balls, parties, the
aters, teas, etc. etc., until one's head is
in a whirl as the season is rushed
through, every one bent on making
the most of the short cold ( ?) season. O
temporal O mores! When spring fairlv
opens, those who can return to England,

A STINGY MAN.
"Funny thing occurred down at our
house Christmas," said the brakeman.
"I'm away almost every night in the
year, but Christmas night I got a lay-off
and staved home with the wife and
babes. Next door to us lives the Htiiv

A liOKX DETECTIVE.
A good story is told at the exfene of
a well known private detective of this
city. When he first started in his busi
ness he was very proud of his work and
told some marvelous tales of his success
as a Vidoeq, and w as constantly planning
ways to get the lawbreakers into his
grasp. One evening his father came
home rather late and to his surprise
and aulaanient found all the doors and
windows open. He rushed inside ex
pecting to find the place ransacked.
Nothing, however, had been disturbed,
and he found his son sitting in the par
lor quietly smoking. "Harry," gasped
the old gentleman,' "do you know that
all the doors and w indows are open
"Ob, ves; I opened them." "But don't
vou know that thieves might get in?"
"That's just what I want. 1 am laying a
trap for them," replied the diseiple of

"Of course, Henry, with all my heart."
"Then fly with me to-night. Let us
leave this house at once and seek some
blessed spot where we two will have a
well defined monoKly on all eartVs joys
and sorrows. Hasten, do not lose a mo
ment."
As he delivered this impassioned
siieech her face grew bright with an in
tense light ofjoy. Then a thought seems
to strike hex. She had them often. Her
smile was o'erclouded with a look of
deepest pain.
"iNo, no, she sobbed, "l cannot ny
with you. I cannot, I cannot."
"Dearest." he murmured, "that is
three times you said you cannot, I only
want you to fly once. Why cannot
you?"
"l-i-l," sue stammerea incoiiereniiy.
"The I's have it," said he resignedly.
Yet I fail to i;-jtierstand your suddenly
conceived prejudics against flying. I
thought that you were partial to that
mode of matrimony. However, no ny u
you say so."
"Forgive me. I would leave wealth,
parents, friends, for your sake, but se
curely locked in yonder room is a treas
ure from which l could never part, i
know not whether it is a device of my
father's to stay my flight, but I cannot
leave without mv treasure."
A dark look of suspicion mantled his
face, and in three strides he had crossed
the room and burst open the' door of the
mysterious chamber.
"Now," said he, "secure your treas
ure."!
She entered, and when she came out

up his hat and went out and new all by

THE PASSIONS AND THB HEALTH
The so-called passion of love rather
sustains than depresses physical power,
unless it lapses into grief and anxiety.
Ambition in its purity of purpose is
harmless to the physical life and en
nobling in its moral enects.except when
it is accompanied bv pride.
Avarice, the meanest and smallest oi
the passions, tends rather to preserve
than to damage physical health.
The passions that act most seriously
on life are aneer. fear, hatred and grief.
No man can get angry often. The evil
results fall directly on the heart and
brain. When a man is red with rage we
know that there is a partial paralysis of
the small blood vessels of the face and
head. and. of course, of the brain. When
he is white with aneer we know that
there is a temporary suspension of the
heart s action t-uch a passion lreiiuentiy
indulged, then, is bound to bring a fatal
result.
Intense hatred acts much like anger in
the effect it produces.
The effects of fear, like those of anger,
felt most on the heart and brain. Phil

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
J. Bavis, a Trapper, Accidentally
Shoots Himself through the Foot
with a Pistol.
"Go down by the saw mill to the little
cabin on Water street, next the lumber
yard, and you will get an item," said a
gentleman to a Statkhmak representative
Friday afternoon.
Of course, such a thing as an item j
was just in that pencil shover'a line, and
he hastened to the scene mentioned. The
house (if one can apply so lofty an appel
lation to a little mix-up of old lumber,
nails, air cracks, two doors, and two
rooms), is near the river bank, and a
broken walk with numerous nlanks crone
therefrom leads from the mu ddy street to
the door. A dark, swarthy woman, tall,
and one whe appeared to have known
hardship, answered the reporter's knock,
and led him into the little dingy room
where three small boxes served for
chairs, and a lot of camp kettles, etc.,
completed the stock of furniture. In one
corner on a dirty straw pallet, lay a man,
with rather prepossessing features, who
said, in answer to an inquiry, "Yes, I
am J. Davis, 'Davis the trapper.' " I
have a pretty bad foot, and I guess I
won't trap any more, for a few days, any
iy."
He stated that about 10 o'clock yester
day morning, he had been oiling his pis
tol, a 44-calibre Smith & Wesson, which
had become slightly rusty from disuse.
and had raised the hammer to full cock,
while oiling the cartridge chamber, and
bad forgotten to return the hammer to
the safety notch. He then started from
his seat, and thoughtlessly allowed his
finger to rest on the trigger. The next
thing of which he was conscious, was a
sense of pain, and of his wife, who had
been dozing on the pallet, calling for
help. He then picked himself up from,
the floor, and removed his shoe, from
which a battered bullet fell to the floor.
The ball had grazed the calf of his leg,
and had passed through his foot just at
the root of the toes, mangling the bones
and flesh very badly. A physician was
called in, and the wound dressed, and
Davis made as comfortable as possible.
Davis is well known throughout west
ern Oregon as a trapper, and came here
but two or three days ago from Cres well.
It will be remembered that the States
man of Wednesday had an account of his
actions on his arrival at Harrisburg,
where he drew a pistol and threatened to
kill his wife. He has been drinking
heavily of late, but claims to have been
sober when the accident occurred. He
says he is going to Alaska when he gets
well, on a trapping expedition.
PROSPECTIVE APPOINTMENTS.
Speculation as to the Appointees on
the RailioartCommiKsioii and to
the new Circuit Judgeship.
It is understood that Gov. Pennoyer is
at present considering the claims and
merits of the applicants for the different
offices which it is his province to fill.
The new law in regard to the railroad
commission has it that the two commis
sioners shall be of different political com
plexion. There is little doubt that the
choice of the governor for the democratic
merolxjr will fall on R. F. Gibbons, of
The Dalles, late democratic candidate for
secretary of state. Mr. Gibbons's claims
are conceded by all, and there will be no
objection to his appointment. Among
the republicans mentioned in connection
with the appointment are S. S. Train, of
the Albanv herald, John Kelly of Spring-
field, Lane county, and Mr. Washburn
of Junction Citv. Just which one of these
gentlemen has the best chance is uncer
tain : but each of them is well known in
his particular locality, and comes strong
ly recommended.
A strong light is being made for the
appointment of judge of the Sixth judt
cial district. Krone pressure has been
brought to bear upon the governor for
the appointment of J. II. Slater, ex-
I uited Mates Benator. Mr. Slater is rec
ommended by every member of the Pen'
dleton bar, with the exception of A. J
Iawrence, who is himself an applicant
for the position, and Lawrence s partner.
The recommendation is also accompanied
by a protest against the appointment of
Lawrence, htrange to say, Mr. Mater
has not the recommendation of the at
torneys of his own county. Baker City
has a name to present tor the jKWition
Thomas Fitzgerald, an attorney of that
place. A few days ago a number of law
vers of Baker and Vnion counties tele'
graphed to the governor, strongly recom
mending the appointment of Judge W
M. Ramsey, of this city. A rumor that
he had been appointed to the iKsition
gained some currency on the streets, yes
terday, but it was evidently without
foundation. It is hardly probable that
Judge Ramsey will be appointed, unless
such appointment would be considered
by the governor as the beat means oi set
tling the contentions ot the eastern (Or
egon attorneys over the matter. There
is no doubt, however, that the appoint
ment ot Judge Kamsey would rettee
great credit upon the administration.
There are many names mentioned
connection with the sujierintendeney of
the asylum. Although there is much
doubt and uncertainty as to what will be
done in regard to the removal of Dr. Jo-
sephi, that has not prevented the various
candidates from urging their claims, jut
.is if the field was open. Among those
who have been sixikeu 01 as either appli
cants for the position or not averse to the
appointment are Dr. llarry Lane, ot
Portland, Dr. J. L. Hill, of Albanv, Dr.
A. I. Nicklin, of Portland, Or. W. V.
Kinehart, of Canyon City, ir. F, A.
Bay ley, oi Hillsboro, and several others.
It is certain that no action will lw taken
in the premises just at present, and in
deed it is an open question whether or
not anything at all will be done.
The health officer at Astoria is yet to
lie appointed. The friends of Dr. Alfred
Kinney, formerly of this city, but now of
Astoria, and Dr. W. I). Baker, of Astoria,
are pushing the claims of their respective
candidates.

AFTER THREE WEEKS.
Riley Cox, of silverton, Found
Drowned In Little Pudding:
River.
Three weeks ago Friday lliley Cox,
son of John T. Cox, who lives near Sil
verton, left home to visit some friends
near S wartz's mill, about five miles north
east of Salem, on the Salem and Silver
ton road. Young Cox was aged about
years. He was soon missed . from
home, but he bad relatives in Linn coun
ty, and it was supposed that he had gone
there. Finally his people became alarm
ed about his prolonged stay, and inquiry
and search were instituted, it was found
that he had not been in Linn county,
and his brothers went to Swartz's mill
and hunted about there for him. On
riday they succeeded in finding the
body of the missing boy in the mill pond
above the bridge that crosses the Little
Pudding river at that place. He. had
fallen through the ice three weeks before
and had lain there, entirely under water,
and most of tne time under the ice, ever
since. The body was taken home Friday
evening ; and it was understood that au
inquest was to be held yesterday. How
ever it was thought unnecessary to hold
an inquest, and none was held.'
On the day that the drowned boy fell
through the ice he was skating with
Jimmy Carter, a young fellow working
at the mill, and Carter reports that when
he left young Cox he had started home.
Carter claims that he did not see Cox
fall through the ice. When the body
was found it was slightly decomposed,
but in a comparatively good state of
preservation, on account of the recent
cold weather.

About twenty yean ego I discovered a little
acre on my cheek, and the doctors pronounced
It cancer. I have tried a Bomber ot physicians,
but without receiving any permanent benefit.
A mong the number were one or two specialist .
The medicine they applied was like lire to the
sore, causing Intense polo. I saw a statement
in the pr.prra telling what 8. 8. S. had done for
others similarly afflicted. 1 procured some at
once. Ui'forr I bad used the second bottle the
Height., rs could notice that my cancer was
hcallt i.; up. Iff general health had. been bad
for two or three years I had a hacking cough
and spit blood continually. I bod a severe
psln In my breast. After taking six bottles of
S. K. S. my cough left me and I grew stouter
ban I bud been for several years. My cancer
has heeled over si 1 batallltlespot about the
site 4f a half dime, and It is rapidly disappear

Constitutional Catarrh.
No single disease has entailed more suffering
er hastened the breaking np of the constitution
than Catarrh. The rense of smell, of taste, of
sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind
one or more, and sometimes all, yield to its de
struetive influence. The poison it distributes
throughout the system attacks every vital force,
aid breaks up the most robust of eonitltntlons.
Ignored, because but little understood, by most
physician!, impotently assailed by quacks ana
charlatans, those suffering from it have little
hope to be relieved of it this side of the grave.
It Is time, then, that the popular treatment of
this terrible disease by remedies within the
reach of all passed into bands ar once competent
aud trustworthy. The new and hitherto untried
method adopted by I)r Sauford in the prepara
tion of his Radical Cure has won the hearty ap
proval of thoustnda. It Is instantaneous in af
fording relief in all head colds, sneezing1, snuf
fling and obsstructed breathing, and rapidly re
moves the most oppressive symptoms, clearing
theheac, sweetening the breath, restoring the
senses of smell, taste and hearing, and neu
tralizing the constitutional tendency of the dis
ease towards the lungs, liver and kidneys.
