understands Washington Territory
and its people better than many of its
older citizens. The address was we'll

Portland has been very dull this
winter not single murder having
been committed there, but the town
shows promise of growing more lively,
as on Tuesday two citizens at midday
commenced shooting at each other on
Morrison street. Five shots were fired,
one of which damaged a gamblers
hand so it will be hard for him to deal
in the future. The encounter gave the
police a job for little while.

THE METHODIST COUNCIL

1 The Grand Council of the Methodist
 Church which has just been held in London
 was not productive of anything startling or novel, but it's deliberations and conclusions
 were nevertheless important and will of | course have much influence.
 The principle of itineracy which is much
 criticised in this country, was declared to be l still the fundamental basis of the evangeliz- l ing work of the Methodist Church, and it
 was recommended to be kept up, not only by ministerial service in communities wbere | that form would be the most valuable and ! eHectual, but that greater use. should be
 made of lay evangelization in the cities. It
 was shown that very much work could be l done by this means that could not be effect 1 ually performed by ministers, and that many l could be brought within the influence of reli zion by the exhortatiens of persons in their
 own rank of life, or in immediate association, who could not be reached by the church or
 ganization.
 How to best use the religious press was
 thoroughly discussed. It was practically ad-
 mltted that 1t was inferior to the secular
 press ln the modern advances in journalism
 It was admitted also that the secular press is
 usurping more and more the functions of the
 strictly religious press by it's publica
 ton of the notable sermons of the day and the opening of its columns to subjects of religious discussion The mar roWness of the religious press and it's lack of the practical faculty in arrangement, style and interest were reprobated. At the same tune its value in religious propagandism was fully recognized, and 1t was stated that a great religious newspaper was of more value than even great university. The Proyi- dence Journal pertinently says concerning thls matter: "The practical point of i'm provement was not reached by the Council, in that 1t did not declare that success in relieious journalism depended upon the same condi- tons as 1n secular journalism, and that train Ing, experience and education in the profes slon were absolutely essential But it did arrive at the point of the acknowledgement of deficiency, and that is the first step to- ward the remedy, when the value of the in strument is also equally apprehended Sue cessful editors of modern newspapers how ever, will not be taken from the ranks of ministers without previous training, any more than successful captains of ocean 
 The importance of the Sunday school | work ln the church was fully recognized, and | preparations made to broaden and extend it | in the way of imparting religious instruction l and establishing the principle of faith. It l was asserted as the general sense of the Council that the creation of religious in- 5erest among the young was of more impor- lance than all the evangeHzing efforts direct sd toward later life. The other matters dis | 'ussed were of less importance, but the Council took pains to severely condemn some now generally believed to be in locent

The Dreadful Apaches.
What Lieutenant Clarke Saw Near Fort
 Apache.
 Nav Yor

Apache.
 [Cor, New York HeraId,l
 From Lieutenant Clarke, who commanded the scouts that first went to the relief of General Carr at Fort Apache, I learned the particulars relating to the killing of the eight men by the hostiles after the fight at Cibicu Greek. Clarke was detailed by GeneraI Carr to bury them. Within three miles of Fort Apache he found the body of the mail carrier shot through the head and the skull crushed in No mail bag was found in the vicinity Next he came across the bodies of three men with their skulls broken and shot through the head. It seems to be characteristic of the Apache to shoot his victim through the head, even after death, in order to give the appearance of skilled craftsmanship on his part. Some seven miles from the fort he encountered in the middle of the road the smoking embers of fire built around the wheel of a wagon, the greater part of which was charred and held together only by the iron framework. To the wheel was bound what remained of James Saunders, a Mormon, who lived but 8 short distance from the reservation. The sicken- ing odor of the burning flesh was so terrible that the Indian scouts passed on, refusing to bury the body. The follow ing day, however rain storm having oc- cured during the night, Clarke went back and buried the remains. Around the wagon were found a number of empty cartridge 6helIS showing concluS1Vely that Saunders must have made brave resistance. The fact of his burning is an additional proof that he fought hard before his capture, as it is distinguishing mark of respect which the Apache reserves for the bravest of his enemies Strung along the road at intervals of few hundred yards were found the bodies of two others who had evidently been riding in the wagon with Saunders when the attack was made upon them. They jumped out and ran, getting no further than where their bodies were afterward found. Along the road and close to where the Mormon perished in such a terrible manner Lieutenant Clarke found breastworks erected sufficiently high to cover the body of man. They were covered with grass and were evidently used by the Apaches in ambushing Saunders, who was known to them as brave man. The body of the eighth was that of courier who was making his way to Camp Thomas it was found about ten miles from Fort Apache. His skull was crushed almost to a jelly. The reason Lieutenant Clarke assigns for finding the bodies all mutilated about the head is that the medicine man at the Cibicu fight, after General Carr's orders to kill him, did not lie with the shots the soldiers fired into him they were obliged with clubbed rifles to end him by crushing in his skull therefore ;he Indians retaliation upon the bodies of hose already found.

 Natives of Ohio are usually able to make their way in life, and MT. Richard M. Jack son, who left Ohio some time ago to live in Europe, is not an exception to the rule. MT.
 Jackson has lived in Stuttgart for several years, and first became known there as an unusually dihgent student of the piano, in which pursuit he attained much success. Of late he has found favor with the King of Wurtemberg. It is said that he used to meet the King daily at the same place in the palace garden, and to show, by the humility of his greeting, an extraordinary amount of rever- ence. In this way he attracted, first the notice, then the goodwill of the King who one day addressed him and asked him if he would like to enter his service This offer MT. Jackson accepted, but on the condition that he should not be required to give up his American citizenship except by his Ma jesty's direct command, by which reservation he freed himself in advance from many un- pleasant duties. He received the place of reader to the King at salary of one thou ! sand dollars, with handsome lodgings. He is subject to the orders of no one but his Ma ! iesty, and the favor in which the latter holds | him has lately been especially evident. The | King has been living in rural retirement at ! Friedrichshafen, where the pair have con- | 'tantly been seen enjoying each others so- ciety. About the middle of August the two, | by 8 single servant, crossed 'he lake and made little tour in Switzer- and. Having previously been deco 'ated with the Fredrich order, MT. Jackson, 'n occasion of 8 visit of the Austrian sover- 'ign, was promoted to the dignity of Ge- at the same time receiving rom his masters guest the order of Franz -osef MT. Jackson is described as tall, 'road shouldered, with prominent cheek 'ones, dark eyes and blonde moustache and
 face expressive of strong character.

Illinois has a constitutional problem to solve. The constitution of 1870 provided for the election of certain county officers, whose terms of service end in December, 1881, and for the election of their successors in the month of November. But at the election last year an amendment was adopted providing that an election for these offices should be held in November, 1882. The question arises, what is to be done with the offices in the in- terval? There are three theories that the present incumbents hold over year beyond the term for which they were elected that an election be held in 1881, the persons elect ed to serve until their successors are chose n in 1882 that the present incumbents all go out in 1881 at the expiration of their terms, and that their places be filled, some by the governor and the others by the county boards, until 1882.

The Brooklyn Unsom-Aryus thinks tickets would help the temperance cause Its idea is to have tickets good for beer and other beverages sold, which tickets could be used by those inclined to ''treat" their fellow men. Instead of adjourning to a saloon the person desiring to treat could merely say: s'Boys, have beer with me, |" and pass around his coupons, which could be cashed with beer whenever the receiver felt inclined This plan of universal system of inter-chaneea- ble beer tickets the UnSon-Argus thinks is one that could be easily tested land would no doubt prove an effective barrier. or at least curtailer of the present unsuitable desire to treat and guzzle beer for no apparent req son save that of reckless desire to do some thing convivial at 8 moments notice. One might as well invite man out to have necktie or piece of pie; but they wouldn't fill the bill, whereas tickets that could be cashed when most convenient for the capaci- ty would save many head and costly round '''

An English traveller gives some interesting information about sheep and cattle 'truns'' in Australia. Except in Victoria, whose greater compactness has led to the purchase outright of much of the station property, these runs are hired from the government on long leases, averaging perhaps ten shiIlings per mile, with the reservation that any bona fide settler may choose up to 320 acres and pay for it by easy installments. These leases vary greatly in size, but 25 square miles are the minimum, and they sometimes exceed 2,o0o; their ordinary size is from 15o to GOO square miles, having from 10000 to 200, GOO sheep. But these runs are uncertain invest ments on either sheep or cattle. They are beset with the chances of '.runs'' of bad luck from the drought to which Australia is subject, from cattle plaques, bush fires and fluctuations in the markets Vast tracts of

AMMONIA
 IN THE " ROYAL" BAKING POWDER.

I do not find in practice to produce any good effect in raising the bread, and I should not, therefore, consider its presence as desirable. If, then, we accept Dr. Love's standard of commercial value, these two powders are both worth 50 cents, with the additional advantage of purity, or freedom from ammonia, on the part of '' Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder"
 We feel called upon, in justice to ourselves and the public to give the above facts, as the article denominated Kitchen Economy was published apparently as disinterested infor- nation, intended for the public good, where as in fact it was an advertisement of the Row al Baking Powder Company.
