The talk of the town is the Becker mystery. The mother of the dead boy strougly sus pects her husbaud. but the most plaus ible story is that of suicide, as parlies say who arc thoroughly acquainted with the domestic condition of the Sheridan family. They arc prone to believe th- young man came to his d-Mth by his own hand. A ptrtially empty box of Rough on Kits prison contained a fall solution of the problem. It is said that the lhy wis ve-y closely related to a woaiin that he dearly loved and that of late he has led a dissipated career, and the supposition is that ou learning inese lacts tne nigti spir ited, intelligent lad's heart was broken with shame and the prospect of an early disgrace drove liim to take his own lire. The fact that poison in powder form Avas found in his stomach proves conclusively that the arsenic conld not have been taken in liquid form. His mother says he did not see the box of ioison until after her sou was dead. A. TRAGEDY XV IDAHO CITY. general a! tub point of Arciddit to .Indjp Admits Son.

Deputy col lector Hayden has seized the naviga tion instruments taken from the British ship Craigend, and will pos sibly arrest the constables for smug gling. Captain Hamilton, acting un der instructions from the owners of the vessel, has placed the whole matter in the hands of Balfour, Guthrie fc Co., whose representative has taken meas ures for a prompt investigation of the affair. The agent has telegraphed the British consul, J. B. Alexander, at Port Townsend, to come hero and be here on Wednesdav, and ha3 also asked the American collector of the port, Colonel Bradshaw, to come.

San Francisco, March 11. The California and Oregon railroad is now open its entire length from here to Ashland, and trains are running regu larly as far north as Glendale, Oregon, eighty miles north of Ashland. There still remains a stretch of twenty miles to be cleared of snow and slides in Cow Creek Canyon between Glendale and Riddles. Transfers are now bo ing made between these points by means of stages. Itisoxpeoted that the entire lino to Portland will be open for traffic in about two weeks. Mails are still being forwarded to the northwest by steamers. In the improvement of the Colum bia river and its harbor bar, the broad interior drained by the waters of that noble stream will reap immeasurable advantages. But tho inland empire nas acted witu wisdom m not pinning its faith to that solution of the carry ing problem. It seems impossible to beat into the heads of congress that self-evident fact that the proper im- provment of this natural highway, one of the greatest in America, would lead to the development of the coun try. Population will have to be the pio neer in this case, and the railroads are solving the question in a manner that is bound to exert powerful influence. They bring immigration and improve ment, and these in time will enable Washington, Idaho and Oregon to go before congress and call for the im provement of the Columbia with some prospect of being heard and heeded. The jetty at the mouth of the river is doing good work. Already it is deepening the channel, and a few years after its completion the entrance to the Colnmbia will be one or the safest and easiest harbors upon the Pacific coast This is a matter that concerns Spo kaue Falls, because every gallon of water that runs through this city passes at this entrance to the deep sea. Eastern AYashington in time will have tho choice of two magnifi cent harbors, and at her will can send commerce to Puget sound or to the Columbia. Tho advantages of suoh a position are so evident that they need not bo enumerated. In case the tide lands should pass to greedy and conscienceless speculators, and they should employ their power to place burdensome exactions upon our com merfe, we can turn to tho Columbia, and by striking them in their only vulnerable point, their pocket, force them to a position of reason and ap proximate fairness. Spokane Falls Review. Special by Tho California Associated Fsxss. Ottawa, March 11. Chas. Rykert, conservative member of parliament for Lincoln, is nlso a great boodler accord ing to Sir Richard Cartwright and other great liberals. He is charged with abusing his position as a member of parliament to secure large timber limits in tho northwest territory at a nominal price, and then selling them and making money by the transac tions. He purchased some years ago 100 square miles of limits at Cypress hill in Manitoba. The timber was very valuable, but all Bykert paid the government was $500. Shortly after this he sold it to a German named Sands for $200,000, of which $75,000 was paid in cash to his wife. Part of the balance went toward the expenses of the survey and litigation with tho Canadian Pacific railway. The remainder was secured by notes. In the house of commons this afternoon Sir Ricard Cartwright moved for an investigation into his conduct The government, . endeav ored to shield him. A large number of members spoke on both sides. Cartwright's motion for an immediate inquiry was met by government amendment for adjournment of the debate. After a division this was carried hy a vote of 94 to 72. This action on the part of tho government will prohibit discussion coming up again until the end of the session and the excuse will probably be made to shelve it again. Threo government members voted against their party. They said tney believed Rykert was guilty and could not assist any member, conservative or liberal, in un clean boodling transactions. It is understood that the government used this way of getting out of the difficulty because Rykert has in his possession a document showing that one of the cabinet ministers is involved in the transaction.

The "boom ers" proceeded to Convention hall, cracking revolvers as they went and shouting loudly for Cleveland. Of all ludicrous conventions this must be awarded tho palm. During the afternoon a territorial committee was appointed to take charge of the campaign, and volumin ous resolutions were adopted. It was unanimously resolved that the repub lican party was "infirm, decrepid and rascally" and totally incapacitated for the great work of "reforming the people" and "shaping the destinies of tho nation." The negro colonization scheme was severely denounced and the "niggers ' of Oklahama were in cluded in one sweeping anathema by the boomer orators. Adjourned until evening. CoHmlsiIoHers Appelated.

Not that he requires it, either in defense or extennation, but even an editor must have some outlet The real estate men form a very com ponent part of communities at large especially so, perhaps, of the citie3 of Washington. To their shrewdness, excellent judgment and general ca pacity to know whicli way the wind blows, the growth of our cities in the new state is largely due. Through their rare ingenuity forests succumb to hnsbandry and deserts are made to blossom as tho rose. In every city thero exists a small coterie of narrow-minded, pharasaical men who are prominent in charitable and philanthropic schemes. They are exclusive and arrogant, and look upon the wide awake men of tho town with distrust To this class of citizens the real estato man is a favorite target for abuse. And yet oh, ye jewel of con sistency! when a charitable enterprise is fonoot, what name do tho aforesaid individual seek to head the list.' Tho real estato man's. If an A.B. CD. E. or other al phabetical society is projected, whose contribution is most eagerly sought for? Tho real estate mau's. If an "ism" or an "ology" requires funds for its propagation, whose aid is first solicited.' The real estato man's. If a now pair of shoes is wanted for an itinerant Siwash, who is to furnish them.' Tho real estate man. We do not decry charity. We are sorry, however, for tho man who can deliberately condemn an entire fra ternitvof hardworkors because un scrupulous men havo been known to engage in the same business. There are, or have been, counterfeit five dol lar bills in circulation. Do these men of narrow minds reject nil five dollar bills that como in their way? We trow not Washington Magazine.

A new fountain pen especially adapted to the needs of the sharper has been invented. Having selected his victim and made all preliminary ar rangements, Mr. Sharper writes out a very innocent looking agreement with an ink that fades readily. Then by a simple and imperceptible motion he turns on another kind of writing fluid and hands it to the victim and gets his signature in permanent ink. When the agreement fades out a pro missory note is written in and the job is done. For a time this pen will have as much work to do in tho city as in the country. Statesman.
