In the circuit court yesterday the greater part of the day was taken up by the trial of Frank Miller, charged with larceny. The jury found him guilty. In the afternoon the great case of Loomis vs. Mathieson came up. This has become a celebrated case and has awakened a great interest in the sec tion of tho county where it origi nated. It involves the ownership of a cow which both plaintiff and de fendant are confident belongs to them individually. Four lawyers, twelve jurymen and a crowded court room awaited with bated breath, yes terday afternoon, the testimony of an expert witness regarding the effect of a cow having one additional tooth as compared with the renewed dentition of an animal possessed of four maxil lary cuspids. The overwhelming magnitude of the case involving the possession of a cow and the pay ment of what must be a big bill of costs makes the matter one of great moment. To an ordinary looker-on it seemed as though the lawyers were doing the milking, and the parties to the snit would get the horns and tail. The case will be continued to-day. In the evening the matter of the injunction in the case of the Oregon board of pilot commissioners came up. Messrs. Fulton and Dorris ar guing that the injunction should ob tain, and Messrs. Bowlby and Page arguing that it should be dissolved. At tho close of the argument the court proceeded to sum up the evi dence in the case of the preceding day where the commissioners had been cited to appear and show cause why they should not be adjudged guilty of contempt of court in an al leged refusal to obey the mandate of the court regarding a writ of injunc tion served upon them by the sheriff. His opionion as delivered was long and marked by moderation of state ment. He summed up the evidence and stated it as his conclusion that while appearances would seem to in dicate that a portion of the board acted in a way that might be cou struedas having an appearance of intending an expression of contempt to the court, yet, on the whole, he would take no further cognizance of the matter, and accordingly dismissed it Regarding the continuance of the injunction the court stated that a de cision ou that poiut would be an nounced to-day.

A mass meeting of members of dif ferent encampments of the anti-coolie association was held in Portland last Wednesday evening at which several speeches were made and tho follow ing preamble and resolutions were unanimously adepted: resoltttions. Whereas, We, the citizens of Port laud and vicinity, in mass meeting assembled, do believe that Hnless in telligent action bo immediately taken by us on the Chinese question, de struction of life and property will be the inevitable result And inasmuch as there are thousands of our wage workers out of employment, with no prospect in the future of securing work whereby to earn bread for them sefves and families. And realizing that under the present state of affairs their condition cannot be made worse. And seeing as we do the .the danger that threatens our city, we deem it our duty to humanity to adopt the following resolutions. Therefore be it Rejoiced, That a congress be held in the citv of Portland on the second Saturday of February next for the purpose of taking intelligent and con certed action in this matter. Be it fnrther Jleaolced, That all companies, corporations, trades unions and labor organizations be and are hereby re quested to hold meetings and elect delegates to represent their respective organizations, each organization, trade union, company or corporation to be entitled to three delegates to represent their respective locality. Be it further Resolved, That no delegate shall be admitted to this congress without the proper credentials, signed by the presiding officer and secretary of his respective organization. Be it further Resolced, that a committee of ten be elected by this meeting with full power to art in these matters. Be it further . Jiesolced, That we invite our co workers in eastern Oregon and Wash ington territory to assist us in this movement. And ne it further R'soloed, That a copy of this pre amble aud resolutions be published iu all the papers of Oregon aud Wash ington territory. SPARKS FIMHI THE WIRES.

FIGHT IiLTVfEEX MEXICAN AM) A3IEHI CAS TROOPS. SAn Francisco, Jan. 27. A tele gram received at the Presidio to-day from Fort Bowie, Arizona, signed by General Crook, gives the contents of a dispatch received by the latter from Lieut. Mans, dated Nocori, Sonora, Mexico, January' 21. It states that the troops under Capt Crawford, Jan uary 11, surrounded and attacked an Indian camp fifty miles southeast of Nocori. A two hours1 running fight took place and a number of Indians were wounded, but all escaped. The hostiles sent word that they wished to hold a conference, and while the troops were in camp await ing the time fixed for the conference, they were attacked by lui Mexican soldiers. Efforts were made to let them know the troops were Ameri cans and friends. Capt. Crawford and Lieut. P. Mans advanced to talk with them, when a volley was fired. Capt Crawford was shot'iu the head, and Mr. Horn, interpreter, w&s slight ly wounded in the left arm. The Mexicans' fire was partly re turned by scouts of Capt. Crawford's command, but only sufficient to keep them at a distance. The firing lasted half an hour. When Lieut. Maas succeeded in having a talk with the officer in com mand of the Mexicans, their captain having been killed, he was told they had been taken for hostiles, owing to the darkness. The Mexicans signed a paper to that effect The loss to the Americans by tho unfortunate affair was: Capt. Craw ford, mortally wounded; Mr. Horn, chief of sceuts: two Indians, slightly wounded, and another severely wounded. The Mexicans' loss was four killed and five wounded. In the telegram sent by Lient Maus to Gen. Crook he says of this affair that he believes the Mexicans expected to drive the Americans off with an overwhelming force, and se cure their camp and effects. Capt Crawford died on tho 18th, during the march to Nocori. where he was buried. He was unconscious until his death. Lieut. Maus then assumed command. While the troops were on route to Nocori two squaws entered the camp, through whom arrangements were made by Lieut. Maus for a confer ence with two bucks of the hostile band. This euded by Chief Nana and one buck, the wives aud children of both Geronimo and Natchez, a sis ter of Geronimo, one boy and a wo man being given as hostages to Lieut. Maus for observance of peace until Geronimo meets Gen. Crook, with whom ho expressed a wish to have a talk. The meeting between Crook and Geronimo will take place in about a month aud will undoubtedly end in the Indians surrendering. The nana consists or chief ueruuimo. Natches, Chihuahua and Nana, twen-1 ty bucks, pome women aim children, Lieut. Maus is now heading for Lang's ranch.

Dr. Picard holds that this superiority is due to their stringent health laws. The Mosaic, like the older Egyptian code, is verv stringent regarding the eating of "flesh and other articles of food. Of the ani mals examined, a large proportion are always condemned as unfit for food. People who cat meat indis criminately are verv prone to dis orders of the blood "and of the kid neys ; for meat is composed of nitro gen, which the kidneys have to re move from the blood, and of course they cannot do this successfully ex cept by the aid of Warner's Safe Cure, thebest kidney strerigthener, unless it is temperately partaken of and only the very best meat is used. Jews also use alcoholic liquors very sparingly and thus keep up good digestion; and then again thev are a holiday-loving and Sa'bbath-ob'serv-:nc class. Housekeeper. To Remove the Chinese.
