'After a residence of three months, or
mereabouta under hit father's roof, lie
suddenly became known to fame by
an elopement with his stepmother.
Toe following telegram throw light
on the antics of the precious pair:
Sacramento, July 25.-Oonstable
Bradley of Vaeaville arrested on a
ranch up the river at daylight this
morning a desperate character named
K. Lander Witt. He had been under
arrest at Vacavillefor cattle stealing
but was released on Bail.
On the 6th of July be got Into a
fight with a man Into a saloon, knock
ed him down and almost kicked the
flead off him. Fearing the man
might die he shipped his household
goods, jumped his bail and skipped
out.
After Witt's capture this morning a
woman with whom he had been liv
Ing with appeared at the jail in Wash
ington across the river, and at her
urging request she was locked up with
the prisoner.
Witt is wanted in Oregon and the
authorities of that state will be noti
fied of his arrest. He is a man about
85 years fo age and is said to have a
very bad name. Constable bradley
had received letters from Oregon say
ing there are two warrants out for
Witt. It appears that Witt made
love to his stepmother, who returned
blB affections and they finally ran
away together and came to California.

Kansas City Journal.
Life Saddened Seen.
The Pendleton East-Oregonian re
lates one of the sad incidents with
which human life and experience
abounds: Thursday last there arrived
at Adams an old man named Welch
with an unpretentious tented show.
He had a bear, a couple of white owls,
and an attraction that really was a
curiosity, a little womau who weighed
thirty-six pounds, was thirty-two
inches in statute, and had lived thirty
three years. Although a dwarf she
was not deformed in any manner, her
body being proportionately de
veloped. Tbe little woman was a sufferer
from Bickuees. and Frirlav nio-lit
, .B...
hemorbage occurred that caused her
aeatn. A soniewnat sad and painful
story then came to lieht. Her. name
was Miss M.J. Welch, and she was
te old man's daughter. He bad sen
sitively kept her concealed all her life
until within the last two months,
when, being no longer able to earn a
livelihood, he was compelled to exhibit
her. They left Idaho, where they
lived, and have since been traveling.
As the father, who Is seventy years
old, had no funds, the county authori
ties were notified, aud will take in
hand the burial of that unfortunate
little creature.
An Immense Hop Crop.
The prospect for Oregon is as prom
ising as has ever been known by local
dealers, and this year's orop will far
exceed that of 1892. Aoording to care
ful estimaes, based on the reports of
the growers, a prominent dealer of
Portland estimates the yield this year
at 42,000 to 46,000 bbshels. Last year's
crop was 29,000. Theodore Bernheim,
the hop and wool dealer, says that
the grow crop is In a erowinsr eonrll.

in twother decidedly unpleasant
wrangle today. It lasted nearly two
hours and during that time many un
pleasant things were said and mauy
ladies gave vent to their fellings by
song.
Mrs. Ball, of Delaware, secretary Ht
the committee on awards, made
long complaint against Mrs. Meredith,
chairman of the committee. Among
other things she charged that when
Mrs. Meredith was unable to attend
sessions of the committe she sent her
sister to act as overseer when the sis
ter had no right to a seat In the com
miltee. In the frequent interval
during Mrs. Ball's remarks were ex
clamatious of surprise from the audi
ence, but the sensation came when, In
closing, she characterized Mrs. Mertv
dith as an "arrogant, malicious, un
generous, vindictive, woman.
Before she had finished halt the
women In tbe house were on their
feet, many shreiklng wildly, other
hissing aud stamping their feet Mrs.
Palmer used her gavel vigorously and
called in vain for order, but the excit
ed women paid no attention. "Take
that back," yelled one large one. "Fni
her out," Bcreamed another, and so on
pandemonium reigned supreme. Bar
ing all the uproar Mrs. Ball stood
perfectly calm, smiling se
renely. When at length order was
restored she repeated the sentcnee.
Then tbe uproar was renewed and
continued for some time.
Mrs. Ball finally took her seat and
In ao instant Mrs. Meredith was onf
berfeet. "80 far as any difference
that exists between Mrs. Ball and my
self is concerned," she said "we ear,'
settle it ourselves, but when she says I
sent my sister to preside over the eora
initre she tells that which is absolutely
false. Mrs. Palmer finally succeeded
In restoring order. '
