VALLEY RECORD. V/ASHiNGTON Interesting Items Picked Out from the The People’s Paper ASHLAND. Or.......Thursday. Oct. 25.1894 NOTES. Dally Dispatches. Letters from the civil service commis­ sion have been sent to federal employes throughout the country informing them that they need pay no attention to de­ mands for campaign assessments. Politi­ cal assessments in any guise are pro­ hibited by law. The sugar trust officials, Messrs. Have- meyer and Searles, were arraigned in the criminal court of the district of Columbia before Judge Cole and pleaded not guilty to the indictments against them for refusing to answer the ques­ tions of the senate sugar trust investi­ gating committee. The proceedings were merely formal. The Postoffice Museum has been for­ mally thrown open to the public. Post­ master-General Bissel has taken especial pride in the museum and has forwarded its success in every way within his power. The preparation of this exhibit lias been under the direction of Chief Clerk Thomas of the postoffice depart­ ment. The museum includes all that was in the World’s Fair, and some ad­ ditional features. The postal car Grover Cleveland is not there, but there is a complete model of this postoffice on wheels. The museum is in a large room in the court of the Postoffice building. The late news from Honolulu of the abrupt check given by the Dole government to the negotiations by com­ missioners from England for special concessions for a station in the Hawaiian islands for a projected cable between British Columbia and Australia has been received at Washington with great satisfation, because of the positive at­ titude of the Hawaiian government in refusing, on account of prior exclusive treaty engagments with the United States, to make any such grant as that requested by Great Britian. According to Commodore Chadwick, chief of the bureau of naval equipment, the coal bills of the navy are steadily increasing, owing to the greater con­ sumption of coal by the modern war vessels. The annual report of the bu­ reau shows there will be a deficiency of $30.000 in the appropriation for equip­ ment owing to the fact that $191,291 was expended for coal in the past year than in the year previous. There were purchased at home 42,190 tons of coal, costing $198,163, of which 9,505 tons were purchased on the Pacific Coast at an average cost of $7.02 per ton, and 32,635 tons on the Atlantic Coast at a cost of $3.34 a ton. There were spent abroad for coal $462,192, at an average cost of $8.86. Present Day Physical Science. The working theories that have been followed in physics and thrown away when they did not square with the facts discovered under them are well describ­ ed in a paper by Professor D. W. Her­ ing of the University of the City of New York in The Popular Science Monthly. In investigations of any sort a working theory must generally first bo mapped out. But, like the result of explora­ tions in central Africa, the facts discov­ ered frequently show the map to have been dead wrong. Profossor Hering calls our attention to the fact that modern textbooks of physics, or “philosophy,” as it used to be vaguely called, contain no such divi­ sions of “simple mechanical powers” as the ones of a generation ago did. Sound, heat and electricity are merely forms of energy. The mechanical theory of heat is fully accepted. This is the theory that heat is produced by motion of the molecules of a body among them­ selves. The more rapid the motion the greater the heat. This motion is called the "kinetic energy of the molecules.” All that is is now divided into force and matter, mutually acting upon each other. Tho one central or universal energy u^mifests itself in different ways under different conditions. Thus variously manifesting itself this uni­ versal energy is variously known as heat, light, sound, electricity, magnet­ ism, etc. There is now accepted also one universal ether, pervading all things. Through vibrations, slow or rapid, of this ether the universal energy acts. It is likely that the science of vibrations will receive greater attention In the immediate future than it has ever dona The vibrations of a univer­ sal ether seem to explain many things. The question the scientists cannot an­ swer as yet is whether the ether is mat­ ter. Light is caused by vibrations of the ether. These vibrations are called light waves. The distance across from the crest of one of the movements to the next is called a wave length, and it is by measuring this distance that many wonderful discoveries have been made. It is denoted by length of time between two vibrations. When an object is approaching a given point, a greater number of light wave® from it will fall upon that point As it recedes the number will be less. This fact and the spectroscope have en­ abled scientists to distinguish whether the heavenly bodies are receding from or approaching one another. It has been found that tho sun and all its planets, earth included, are moving toward the great star Arcturus at the rate of 4 3-10 miles per second. Thus at 6ome very far distant day the people of our earth may experience the sensation of falling into a star many times greater than our sun, if at that time there are any inhabitants left on this little globe. Nobody knows just what electricity in It is such a different manifestation of energy from anything hitherto known that the wisest are at sex The problem ' immediately before students is to dis­ cover what causes positivo and negative electric currents. Beyond doubt they will find oat Meantime in the matter of electric lighting Tesla has discovered that “vacuum tubes become luminous in a properly prepared room with no wires. ” Tesla has found that wires are not nec­ essary to conduct electricity. “Ere loisg intelligence, transmitted without wires, will throb through the earth like a pulse through a living organism.” The earth is one vast storehouse of electric force, and man’s next task will bo to utilize it We know hardly the beginning as yet of the wonders that are to be. The most wxsteful and antiquated piece of machinery still employed in this age of invention is tho steam en­ gine, in Professor Hering’s view. It is by tapping tho source of exhaustless power the earth offers us that we shall be able to abolish the hot, noisy and dirty steam engine. It will be abolished when we are able to “hook our machin­ ery to the machinery of nature. ” Signor Tanlongo, the Roman banker who was acquitted by a jury of frauds of which he was undoubtedly guilty, has retired to a monastery of Passionist Fathers. There he will devote himself to religion. Signor Tanlongo ought to have done that before ho committed the frauds. But perhaps he then would not have had money enough to give the church so large a thank offering because he got free. A good many more Chris­ tians are like Signor Tanlongo. They expect to get even with satan by giving to the church part of the money they made under the guidanco of satan. They will miss it awfully. First we had to have ironclad wooden »hips for the navy. Then we had to have iron ships ont and out Next came 6teel ships, because they wero better. The steel ships were armor plated to protect them from shells. Now the steel armor plated ships must be sheathed with copper, so that their hulls will not rust out. What next? Some “green” farmer repretentatives in Easteran Oregon are telling the loca papers what bills they are going to have passed by the next legislature. They apparently forget that they will have to submit all measures of any import­ ance to the Portland bosses, for their approval. Country representatives were elected for the “honor” of the position, and to vote for Dolph for senator, not to bother themselves about laws.—Portland Welcome. Senator Brich thinks that the railroads could not form a trust under the present law. The senator ia right, bnt no one knows better than be that railroads do not act under the law, but over it. A branch of Coxey’sarmy is going to invade wall street. If any of the Coxey- itea have articles of value about them they had better deposit them for safe keeping before making the invasion. A False Diagnosis. La Grippe is confounded by many per­ sons with a severe attack of catarrh, which in some respects resembles the former. These individuals suffer severely with pain about the forehead, eyes and ears, with soreness in throatand stoppage of the nasal passages, and in fact, are incapacitated for work of any kind for days at a time. These are catarrhal sufferers. Ely’s Cream Balm has been used with the best results in such cases. The remedy will give instant reiief. Cure for Headache. As a remedy for all forms of Headache Electric Bitters has proved to be the very best, It affects a permanent cure and the most dreaded habitual sick headaches yield to its influence.

Bills authorizing the government to borrow 100,000,000 yen were passed. Great Britain has made overtures to the European powers to negotiate peace between China and Japan. The inter­ vention is purely diplomatic and is of­ fered to lx>th combatants in the friend­ liest manner. Chinese troops are being massed at Tien-Tsin. By the end of the month 100,000 soldiers will have arrived. A detachment of 1,800 wounded Jap­ anese have arrived at Chemulpo. There is a large number of wounded at Seoul. In addition 2,100 wounded Japanese have been sent to Japan. At Ping Yang there are 1,200 wounded Chinese in the hospitals. The rebellious Tong Hais of Southern Corea are rest­ less and only the fact that they are not provided with arms prevents them from breaking out in open revolt and moving on Seoul, for which many of them have started. Four hundred Japanese soldiers have been stationed at the king’s palace, Seoul, as the king’s brother is believed to be leagued with the Tong Hais. The Chinese are mobilizing a force at Kiren and gathering a strong force at Pow Ting Fu. The British consul at Seoul states that a dispatch bag which was officially sealed, must have been opened while in transit from Chemulpo to Seoul. This must have been done, the consul adds, with the knowledge of the highest Jap­ anese officials at Seoul, because they have since shown that they were ac­ quainted with the gist of the contents of the bag. The consul has requested his home office to cable him instructions as to what action he shall take in the matter and some sharp interchanges of diplomatic correspondence are expected. A fierce battle was fought recently on the banks of the Yalu river. Both sides lost heavily. The Japanese were re­ pulsed. Judge Ross in the United States cir­ cuit court at Los Angeles decided the application of the Postal Telegraph Cable company to be accorded facilities by the receivers of the Atlantic and Pa­ cific Railway company for constructing its telegraph line along that road favor- ablj’ to the petitioners. In deciding the matter Judge Ross filed quite an elabor­ ate opinion, in which he holds that the contract of the Western Union Tele­ graph company with the railroad for exclusive privileges is not valid. The ruling of the court upon the questions raised is regarded as one of more than usual importance. Attorneys say he has covered the points more fully than has occurred in any previous decision. The test case of J. D. Snyder of Los Alamos, Cal., against the Central Amer­ ican Insurance company, after 21 days' trial at Santa Bai bars, is ended. The jury was out just eight minutes and brought in a verdict for Snyder. He was accused of setting fire to his hotel to secure the insurance. He was tried and found not guilty. For two years the companies refused to pay. The case was hotly contested. Insurance amounts to $12,000. The other companies inter­ ested are the German-American Insur­ ance company, Patriotic Insurance com­ pany of Ireland, Imperial of England, Northwest Insurance company of Mil­ waukee and the Sun of California. The grievance committee of the Ore­ gon Bar association has filed a protest in the supreme court for the disbarment of O. T. Mason, U. S. G. Marquam and C. C. Thompson, attorneys of Portland. The committee charges that Mason was indicted by the grand jury for libel com­ mitted by publishing scandalous articles in a Sunday paper, and also that he at­ tempted to extort money from Major General O. O. Howard. The charges against Marquam are that he fraudu­ lently appropriated .$600 while acting as receiver of the JAL. [Wash.) Shingle Mill company. Thompson is charged with fraud and corruption and violation of the rules of common decency iu form­ ulating a plan to unlawfully prosecute » Chinese firm of Portland.

Thomas Blanck. the murderer of bar­ keeper Charlc3 II. Eridwell of Seattle and Marshal Jeffries of Puyallup, has been convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to death at Seattle. Blanclt has made several desperate at­ tempts to escape since his arrest. J. H. McFarland, ex-sheriff of Walla Walla county, Wash., and traveling agent for Brown Bros., nurserymen, has been arrested on a warrant from Port­ land and charged with “larceny by bailee. ” McFarland says the charge has no foundation and is prompted by personal grievance. At Chatham, Ont., Nelson Huff, a young Indian convicted of an assault on a young white girl and recently sen­ tenced to a month's imprisonment, with 15 lashes at the end of the first two weeks of his imprisonment, received a whipping in the court house yard on a recent night. The prisoner cried most pitifully. Father Gey of St. Peter’s Catholic church, Chicago, ended mass the other day by abruptly leaving the altar, and though rolled in his sacred vestments he collured a bold thief in the main aisle. The thief, George Adams, an ex-convict, pretending to be a worshiper, had sud­ denly grabbed the pocketbook of Mrs. Reis, aged 70, and was making his es­ cape. Adams was locked up. E. L. Titus and Miss Mary Duff were found dead in a bathhouse at Sea Cliff, L. I., the other day. Miss Duff died from the effects of chloroform and Titus shot himself.
