Leg Amputated,
Our renders will remember that a
few weeks ago a gentleman by the
name of Thomas Mnrnn was run
over by the overland train at Halsey,
and was so badly injured that It was
necessary to amputate one of his legs
Being very old, 72 years, the flesh did
not heal, but began to decay, and on
hat Wednesday Dr. Gearv. of Halsev.
assisted by Dr. Btarr, of this place,
amputated the member a second time,
this time just above the knee, The
old gentleman is gradually growing
weaker, and It is feared that a few
more weeks, at most, will end his
earthly career. The extremely warm
weather we are having at present
greatly lessens bis chances of recovery.
Brownsville Times.
An Indian's Talk,
The following from the Pendleton
East Orcironlan elves an amusing" dla.
Station by an Indian In which ho
gets oft some of the unreasonable causes
for hard times advanced by even some
while men; "Liberty" Is one of the
best known Indiana on the reservation,
He has become sntlleiently familiar
Willi people so that ke has thoroughly
learned their language and expresses
himself In no uucertuiu manner when
commenting on tilings and events In
general. The following conversation
actually took place to a Pendleton store
between Liberty and a clerk. Liberty
came into the stole a few days since
and said: How are vou feeliuK now?"
The clerk remarked that there was uu
complaint on the score of health, when
Liberty said! ''Oh, you're all right,
only you need fixing. What do you
know?" The clerk liegan to epiue
that the thermometer was ranging
high, when Liberty drew on a worn,
out slang expression aud answered:
"Don't for the love of the happy bunt,
lug grounds give me airy such chest
nuts. Tell me something which is
fresh." Lllierty was then asked what
he knew and he replied: "I know
that J am down nil thekttuftert Prophet
who occupies tbe executive chair at
Washington. It's u"t si aouoiiut of
his letter which was read to the con
gressmen on the tariff question. That
letter was all right. In fact I rather
Join him In his economic views aud
give them full endorsement. But what
I kick about Is simply this when
Harrison was president we Indians
had plenty of money. Last year the
rains spoiled the crops and this year
for some reason or other things have
gone badly. I only know old Cleve
land 1b president aud should have
made money plenty among us redskins.
He has failed and so I don't like him.
I would be willing to dyuamlte him,
boil hlui in oil, or do any other desjr
ate thing. I've got It In for Cleveland
and don't care who knowa It."
A Suicide at Medford.
A Medford, Jackson county dispatch
of Friday says that Owen Grlgaby, a
young man residing at Eagle Point,
about 18 miles from that city, commit
ted suicide last night. He was at a
dance and appeared unusually happy,
aud was, apparently, having lots of
fun, Some one remarked to him that
he was having a good time, whereupon
he replied: "Yes, I am, but you can all
go to my funeral tomorrow." Noth
ing was thought of It, however, until
this morning, when he was found
dead lu his bed, having died from the
effejts of poison. He was a well res
pected boy, about 21 years old, and the
whole community is shocked at the
news of his self destruction . He had
Just returned from Eastern Oregon,
and It is thought the cause of his sul
cide originated there.
Of Interest to Hop Growers.
We received this week a circular
from Thomas A i,....i t..,., . . .
lean hops lu Loudon, from which we
gieau mat the consumption of hops in
England is ultotit 410,000 bales an.
nually. Of this quantity England
produces 300,000 bales, and the balance
-110,000 is imported flora America.
It Is also stated that th rtu,u,i
American hops Is increasing, of which
me cngnsn growers are quite jealous.
The cost of transporting hops from the
Pacific Coast to Londou is about $2 95
per 100 pounds. Messm Tim,..o0 a
Short further state that English buy
ora are very critical of the hops they
uuj, ami mat choice or good medium
are best to ship. They commend the
lonovung points to growers' attention;
1. Hops should be as large and full
budded as possible and whole, ti,.
are often unnecessarily broken up In
curiug and baling which materially
reduces their value. 2. A soft, glossy
flaky and elastic sample is a desidera
tum and Is the outoeme of judicious
management, s. Tho preference h
for a yellow or colden coin m.,..
colored, delicate yellowish green is also
mucu lined. Jiut for green hops there
Is scarcely anv sale,. Tim i. .
----- wmauwrni

, ,.,, uul j,,,,.
duced by over firing or excessive sul
phuring, by which hops are frequent
ly much depreciated. In condition
hops should be thoroughly sound.
Slack-dried or doubtful hops should
never be shipped, Clean picking is
also very important. Messrs. Thomas
& Short are the pioneer Importers of
Americans hops In London aud do not
handle any other.
Capt. Humphrey's Remarks.
Capt. Humphrey, of Pendleton, f
accused with having told the fellow-
big: "t wus accosted a few minutes
ago by a flne-looklng aud robust young
man who asked me for 50 cents. I
laid my hand on the young man'a
shoulder and asked him what he
wanted with so much free silver in
these days of financial depression and
r He thttt '
TV Ket !0ffie"8 to eat; that
he hud been looklnr f l, h,,
could uot get more than $1.50 per day
for driving a header, and thut he did
not propose to work and toi any
such stnrvutlon.wages," "Well, son,"
I replied, continued the captain,
"don't you know 'way back in '57, '58
and '69, young men like you swung a
heavy cradle the whole blessed day for
5(1 cenls, and were quite well satisfied,
and I u those days farmers received SO
cents a bushel for their wheat, In
other words a man earned in those
days the price of one bushel of wheat
ror nis day's labor, whereas now the
farmer recelyes a scant 30 cents for his
wheat and you are unwilling to work
for $1 60 per day, or five bushels of
wheal. Why, bless me, if times were
as good in those day as now, the peo.
pie would have considered this God's
own country. To be able to earn five
bushels of wheat In one day and meat
ami groceries in proportion, a man to
day at ruling prices for labor can earn
enough in two months to supply him
self Willi food for a year.
