Governor of Missouri is Inclined to Commute His Sentence. Portland, May 8. Dectectlve Bam Simmons, who returned from St. Louis Monday, having In charge J. H. Haa klns, an alleged defaulter, had, while In that olty, a conversation with Governor Stone regarding B. C. Rose, alias Carter, who Is under sen tence to be banged at Mount Ver non, Missouri, on the 14tb Inst. Roue was arrested In this city, on the East Side, several weeks ago by Detec tive Simmons and City Marshal Minto, of Balem, for being a fugitive from Jus tice. Ho was identified by a visiting MlBSourian as being C. R. Carter, who escaped from prison iu Mount Ver non, while awaiting execution, he having been convicted of the crime of murder. In order to mako his escape he shot tbo waraen, and for six years nothing was heard of him until ho was arrested In this city. While hero he went under the namo of R. C. Rose, and married a highly respeoted young lady on the East Side. He was a devout church member, and was on his way to services when taken Into custody by the officers. His conduot here was most exemplary, and he fol lowed tho occupation of contractor. His friends did not at first bellevo his guilt, but when he found that all hope was gone Carter confessed to being the man wanted. His sentence was sot, after being re newed, lor April 14, but Governor Stone was prevailed upon to extend it for a month. To Detective Simmons the governor stated that he was unde cided whether to commute the sentence or let Carter hang. There were many points in his favor. He saved sever al lives In Alaska whilo he was a fugitive, and since his oacapo and during his residence iu Port land he bad led an exemplary life. These matters the governor was con sidering, and from all indications he was not inolined to allow tho extreme penalty to be enforced. So Carter will probably bo permitted to spend the rest of blsdayB In prison or stay there un til be Is pardoned. Codntv Court. Judge Hubbard and Commissioners Watsou and And erson meet at the court room this morn ing.

A woman recently home from Samoa tells of "teas" in that South Sea island. Tho Samoan tea is quite like any other tea so far as it is an informal festivity to promote sociability over a sip of some thing." The peculiar cordial brewed by the native women is usually tne "some- thing" offered, drunk out of a cocoa shell beautifully polished. At tho king's pic nics, fetes of which the monarch is very fond, it is imperative to drain your drink ing vessel,-and as tho cordial is very ex hilarating this, in the case of weak head ed visiting women, is sometimes disas trous. "I went to a tea whilo thoro," said the woman in addition,"which Robert Louis Stevenson gave. Ho is thoroughly Sa moanized, and wo all sat on mats on his piazzas, he cross legged, exactly like tho natives. When I returned the hospital ity, I provided bamboo seats and little tables, but Mr. Stevenson would have sons of them, choosing a mat instead, though his courtesy is such that ho apol ogized for adhering to a custom in my house which I had not adopted. I saw him frequently, and ho seemed well, ex cept for an ashen appearance of the face at times that is quite startling. Ho is charmed with that corner of the world," -New York Times.

It carries an elongated shot of 100 pounds a distance of 7,000 yards and will strike an enemy's ship or fortification four miles distant It Is so rapid in its action that, fired with cordite at a long range, it has three or four shots in tiieairat the same time. Each weapon contains several miles of wire, it having been found that a gun made up of this wire is stronger than when manufactured of bomogeseous metal.
