STILL A MYSTERY.

Scme time ago we published an article
that A. T. Havclon attorney-at-law aud
loan agent doing busines at Asotin had
disappeared, taking with him sums Of
money belonging to different parties in
this county, the money having been drawn
at Lewiston tnd Portland, Oregon, on
mortgages. At the time it was supposed
by all that he had "skipped' the country
but we are now in receipt of story,
which, ic thoroughly investigated might
throw different light on the subject
Leaving Seattle after the adjournment Of
the Republican convention, Havelon in
company with several parties from Day
ton took the train to Wal!a Walla and
were in company until they reached
Bolle's Junction Here Havclon inform
cd his friends that he could not 20 with
them any further as his ticket was by
way of the river and would have to take
the boat. The party then separated since
which time he has not been seen or heard
from. At Bolle's junction he displayed
a large sum of money and was intoxicat-
ed and it is supposed by some that while
in this condition he may have been foully
dealt with and robbed or perhaps fell into
the river and drowned. 1t seems that
when Hayelon left Asotin it was evident
" his intention to return from the fact
that he had large amount of printing
done at one of the cities below which now
remains at the postoflice at this point

AN uREOR.

An item in the Oregonidn in alludine
to Gov. Bunns report concerning Idaho
Gov, Bum is represented to say that
Idaho contains $4,000 population. We
infer that the first figure should be "3
making the total $4,000. The census Of
1880 made the total population less than
$4,000, this was less than five years ago.
If the population had doubled in that
time it would show an unprecedented in
crease in any Territory, except, perhaps,
Kansas, when thousands had rushed there
in the interest Of making it a free State.
But when you assert the increase of 22,-
600. more than double, in less than five
wears it is a wanton and preposterous as
sertion, $4,000 OF 10000 would come
nearer the truth and we think that the
published account must have been typo
graphical error, and not an error Of Gov.
Bum.

Ed. TELLER:-A very pleasant affair
took place in the parlors of the Jersey
House at this place, on the evening oil
the 18th inst, on the occasion of the mar
riage Of Mr.. John Jacluemin and Miss
Lille NJ. Brown. A large number Of in
vited guests were present and participated
in the festivities Of the occasion. A sup
per fit for royalists was served at . o'clock
and wit, wisdom aud the supper strove to
bear away the victor's palm; but later
view Of the field convinced us that the
supper had not conquered, but rather it
had been conquered. There was no bois-
ferrous jollitics manifested during the eve
ming, but happy type of enjoyment,
such as temperate and happy people
have, was apparent.
Among the presents VIC noticed the
following; One glass set, by Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. Wood; one castor, by Mcssrs. Aram,
Davis, Holton and Gaflney; one pickle
dish, Miss Addic Ward; one toilet set,
Mrs. Baldwin; halfdozen napkins, Miss
Alice Crooks; ono oriental lamp mat, Miss

THE WOMEN OF VIENNA.

The education Of girls in Vienna Il
somewhat peculiar, and perhaps worthy
of note. Up to fifteen years Of age they
are kept at their studies, but are not do
prived Of society. They dress very sim
ply, rarely wear silk gown till the day
they leave the schoolroOm for the BALL
room. After they leave school they 70
through years, or even two years, teach
ing in the pantry and in the kitchen, nm
der some member Of the family, or even,
in some cases, in another family, under
trained cooks They may never be Ss
quircd to cook dinner, but they are thus
rendered Independent Of cooks and Ser
wants, as they learn how to do everything
themselves long before they begin house
keeping on their own account. When
married, they are most affectionate wives
and mothers. An Austrian lady; ia fact,
is as accomplished and learned as an Eng
lish governess, as good, housckeeper and
cook as German, as witty and vivacious
in society as Parisian, as passionate =
an Italian, and as handsome as an Amer
ican, some Of tho most beautiful women
in Europe being found in Vienna.
Germans. aud also Austrians, are cole.
brated for their stocks Of linen. Here,
as soon as the girl is born, tho weaving
Of hor linen is begun, and every year /
piece, or certain number Of yards, y set
aside for her trousseau, ready for her
marriage. Grandmamas, on their side,
are not idle. They pass their time knit
ting for their grand children, supplying
not only their present wants, but aho
laying aside for the future dozen dosens
Of stockings every kind being the usual
number for any brides trosscau, and soma
Of these knitted stockings arc ~ Emo =
the finest woven ones.
An Austrian girl or lady is never, I
may say, seen without some kind Of work
in her hand. Ladies work even in 10.
ciety. They do nothing at balls, Of course,
but think that that is tho only excep-
ton to the rule. When several labor
thus together in family ono reads aloud
while the others work, aud thus they keep
abreast of all the newest literature Of the
day. Not minute Of the day ia lost,

iston in the following language:
There were several reasons which
prompted us to sell, the chief one being
that It is published in Territory. The
Territories, you know, cant vote for Pres.
dent; they can't vote for Governor, NOR
Treasurer, nor Secretary Of Stats. They
cannot select their own judiciary. They
elect a Delegate, it is true, but he cannot
vote; and he has to beg like whipped
dog for anything he may obtain for his
constituents Congress acts upon the
theory that citizen, for example, Of Uma-
tilla county, who has the right to vcte for
all elective officers from the President
down, loses this right the moment he
crosses the line into Washington Terri
tory. One moment he is full-Acdged
sovereign; the next he Is almost complete
ly shorn of his rights as a freeman, and
has to beg for favors and powers which
originally resided in him and which he
conferred upon the Federal Government.
Perhaps he would have us to tell some
Of the other reasons, but we refrain.

Mulberry street, New York, has for
wears held an uncnviable prominence in
the low life of the city, and William
Allan Buffers satire recalls it as place
"where thieves and bcggars and loafen
meet" But it turns out that the part Of
the street called the "Bend, which is In.
habited entirely by Spaniards and Italians
of the lower class, has an easy pre-emin'
ence in debascment over the rest Of the
