A few days ago our successful and
popular dentist, DIR. +. PittwOod was
Joined by his brother, VIM. Pittwood,
late Of Watseka, Ills, who came out
to the far west to make this his fu-
ture home. The young gentleman
is also dentist, and a good one, TOO,
and will assist his brother in hand
ling the large practice he has built
up here. Mr.. PittwOOd Is a young
gentleman Of pleasing address and
we hope will find sufficient attrac-
tion, in the place to remain with us
for all time. A late number Of the
Watsela Republican, his home pa
per, thus speaks Of his departure
from that city: "Will PittwOOd
started Monday for Spokane Falls,
Washington territory, TO try the eX-
pertinent OF living in the west.
viii is promising young man, Il
good scholar, and Of approved good
promise. He will be much missed
In sOcial circles. Our best wishes go
with him."

THE CONsPlRATORS.
Full Particulars of the Dynawiters.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-THE
nihilist prisoners, Julius Cesar koo-
sher, Henry Welseman, Oscar Oggo-
list and Charles Mittlestadt, were ar
ralgned this morning before Judge
Rex. They had nothing to say and
engaged no counsel. KOosher is the
oldest conspIrator. lie is Russian
Jew, who, being prescribed, went to
New York. There he secured eiu-
ploylnent as a sort OF immigration
agent for the Northern Pacific rail-
road under Henry Wizards regime,
for the purpose Of locating families
in Oregon and Washington territory,
for which he received 5000 per fami-
Iy. When the department ran low
Of funds he came here. KOOsher
was a familiar figure at Port
land and Seattle. At the for
ner place he stopped frequently
at the st. Charles hotel. He knew
Henry Fairling, Paul Schulze and
A. ID. Charlton well. He transacted
business with them all. Aside from
this statement he IS nOn-commitil.
Weismnn Is an exceedingly good
talker and has an intelligent appear
ance. Although only 25 years ofage
he Is a skillful linguist and under
stands six or eight languages. lie is
Il natural orator and a thorough
chemist, but not a practical one. He
claims that he was only experiment.
ing in order to prepare himself for
an attack from the Chinese. A book
was found in his possession
giving description OF an
ingenious internal machine.
The bell Of aclock should he removed
and in its stead little glass ball be
hung in place. Prior however to
placing the ball It should be partially
filed with q certain mixture Of
acids Then the entire clock should
be placed in a small sized metallic
box well loaded with giant powder,
over which should be laid fulmin-
ating caps. Upon being set at a GER
tain hour, when that hour would
arrive, the bell hammer would
strike the glass bursting 1t so that
the acid would fall upon and burn
the caps which would ignite the
powder. Everything had been done
In the most ingenious manner. The
names Of the prominent citizens who
were to have been executed were on
list found by Capt Lees
and were as follows: Will
liam T. Coleman, w. w. Morrow,
W. II. l.. Barnes, Mayor Bartlett,
John Lloyd Love, Judge Wilson,
Judge Hoffman, Judge Sawyer, Le-
land Stanford, Charles Crocker,
Chief OF Police Crowley, Capt Lees,
Capt. Douglass, Judge Tobln, Gov
ernOr StOneman, Consul Bee, Capt
Short, Naval Officer Stuart, Clay M.
Taylor, NJ. II. DeYoung, Gen. Turn
bull, Claus FSpreckels and Denis
Kearney. There has been no such
here for months. Many
citizens expect a riot OF some sort or
an outbreak after January lst. jan
uary 18th had been the date set by
the nihilists, as had been announced
recently on the sand lot, and il an
tieipated tlsn thorO would be a riot.
but no one thought that the anarch-
lists were so deep in the manufacture
Of Internal machines.

TIE Oregonidn continues its as
saults on senator Mitchell. II is hard
to determine justwhat Is to be gained
by 1t, seeing that Mitchell is elected
for six years. The letters MS pro-
duced in fac SiBii'e may be genuine,
but comparing them carefully with
letters from Mr.. Mitchell in the pos
session Of one OF our citizens, the

more especially at Cheney, are try
ing to influence people by circulat-
ing a report TO the effect that II the
county seat location is to be decided
at the polls in the spring the eX-
penses Of a special election will be
burdensome upon the county. II is
only another Of the false stories put
in circulation by the friends OF that
town. The fact is II the question is
submitted to the electors at special
election that election will not cost
the county solitary cent as the fol-
lowing certificate will prove:

KELLOGG, who formerly run the
Tribune at Cheney, is out in a card
denying that he made any misstate-
ments when at Rockford soliciting
for signers to a remoAstrnce. 1t is
only question Of veracity between
Mr.. Kellogg and the good people Of
Rockford, and from the knowledge
we have OF the two wo consider it
much safer to rely on the word Of
the latter.

DYSPEPSIA.

Sedenlary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudenco In eat
ing or drinking, and various other causes
induce Constipation followed by gcneral
derangcmcnt OF the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder Of each
organ increases the inhrniity Of the others.
The immediate results are Loss Of Appc-
tite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Plat
ulence, DiEziness, Sick Headaches, failure
Of physical and mental yigor, distressing
sense Of weight and fulncsS in the stomach,
and Increased COstiycncss, all Of which ure
known under one head aS Dyspepsia,
In every instance where this disease does
not originate from scrOfulOus taint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect a cure. Those cases
not amenable TO the curative influence Of
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly Yield u
the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties Of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA.
Dyspeptics should know that the longer
treatment Of their malady IL postponed,
the more difficult Of cure 1t becomes.

It will be pleasant little festival
that the ladies Of the Presbyterian
church propose to give next Monday
evening in the west room Of
Brownies block on Riverside avenue,
where the church services are now
being held. It is called a Christmas
festival and given several days in
advance Of the holiday in order not
20 conflict with the many other at
trnctions billed for that time. The
affair will be simple ia It's outline
and yet one where all who may con-
tribute their presence will find am
Pile opportunity for enjoying them
selves. The main feature will be the
display OF candies which will be ex-
tensive and elaborate. These can
dies are all home made. pure and
tOOthsome. Parents desiring to sup
ply themselves with candles for
Christmas times could not do better
than attend the festival and secure a
supply.

ty seat is so firmly established that
there would be no doubt Of removal

making such a terrible effort to pre-
vent the people expressing them
selves on tho question at the polls.
1t seems inconsistent for the press OF

We take the following strange sto-
ry from the Portland OregoaidR. 1t
is the first we have heard OF the ex-
istence Of such place as mentioned.
Has any Of our readers heard Of the
place mentioned ?
Yesterday the Oregonidn received
from Mr.. !. A. Becker OF Spokane
Fails the following letter:
received letter few days ago
from a friend Of mine which 1 here
with enclose. The stOry told there
In seems so incredible and remarka-
BILE that the publicity Of it through
your paper may be the means Of
throwing some light on the subject.
Probably some man who has been
there may see the article and give
some information upon this mysteri-
Gus find. At any rate the publication
oft will not fan to be interesting to
the public.
Here Is the enclosure:
OKANoGAN, W. T., Dec, /, 'sj.
Friend Becker; On my way here,
overlook a man who was ship
wrecked on the Columbia. He told
a great story in regard to deserted
town he and some other men found
about 500 miles from the Little
Dalles. They found IL up a little
stream. There were two billiard Ia
bles in one saloon and one in another,
postofiice with letters in. The let
tiers were dated back in 1855. In
fact, there were twenty-siX stores
and everything in them now. He
said his partner WIS on his way TO
Spokane and you find out II that is
so. He told me where to 60 up that
stream and find about 80 cents to the
pan. He had some Of the gold with
him and he told me very straight
story, hut l can't quite take IL IN.
He said the British Columbia papers
would haye something about it. Sc
you keep your eyes open, and II II is
so l have got good pointer.
Your friend,
II. J. WATKINS.
II the above story be true, NJ
doubt there are men now living IL
the country and reading the Oregon
ian who know about the deserted
town. II ~, this paper will be glaC
to hear from them.

WHILE the people Of the east are
dodging billiards. and exertlng
themselves to keep from freezing to
death the fortunate inhabitants Of
this section are enjoying spring
weather. 1t will bO hard for the peO-
pie Of east Of the mountains to be-
lleve this when they consider that
we are Il much nearer neighbor to
the north pole than they are, built is
a fact nevertheless II they were out
here for a season, however, they
would swear with us that there is no
climate like our climate.

SOME fellow gets up and hOwls
at representative Fem for intrOduc-
ing the bill to submit the re-lOca-
ticn Of the county scat. Anice kind
Of representative it would be who
would not present and support too,
a proposition backed with the names
Of fOur-fifths Of the voters Of
the county. Mr.. Fem is do
ing his duty toward the peo-
pie, as he was expected to do

WHAT objection can the represent
atives assembled at Olympia plead
against the hill submitted in regard
to the re-lOcatlan Of the shire
town Of Spokane county?
Our representatives ask for the pas
sage Of the bill, and that they are

people needs but the $500 or more
names Of voters in the county to
prove.

THE Cheney Tribune publishes a
rude outline map of Spokane county
and then tries by figures to show
that the greater portion Of the pop
ulation is adjacent to that town. 1t
might, with just as much consist
ency, claim Walla Walla as adjacent
to the place. 1t is hardly possible
that such Il shallow subterfuge will
work at Olympia, where the paper
will be sent. A hasty glance at the
map and the figures Bhows just
what terrific liar the originator Of
the mapis. Lookat the signersof the
petition also and it will be seen that
hundreds Of names are from Deep
Creek Falls, Rockford, Hangman,
Waverly, Spangle, MTshall and
Rock Creek, places that Cheney
claims as favoring that town for the
county seat. That dodge is the
thinnest that we ever saw.

IT Is. customary in all legislative
bodies for the members to favor any
measure that may be brought up by
a member that has for its object the
benefit Of a majority Of his constitu-
ents. It Is a courtesy seldom denied.
Both Mr. Reavis and Mr.. Fem,
councilman and representative from
TINS dIsirIct are 10 favor Of the bill
introduced submitting the re-loca-
tion of the county seat Of Spokane
county to the voters Of said county,
and they are backed in their posi-
tion by a petition signed by over
two-thlrds Of the voters Of the
county. II would be both anHnsult
to our representatives and to the
people should the council refuse to
favor the measure proposed.

A CORRESPONDENT Of the Walla
Walla Union says that--"The fight be.
tween Spokane Falls and Cheney for
the county seat has been most
troublesome thing to the memb rs,
on account Of the pertInlcy Of fr Is
Of both sides boring any or no
they thought would have a lhu-
ence. Whoever wins, 4 DpPo-
site party will die in 4 Itch"
We cannot understand why .any
fair minded member Of either house
could feel troubled over the matter,
nor why they should hesitate for a
moment in the performance Of their
duty in. the premises. The two
members from this district have ex-
pressed themselves in the matter
and an overwhelming majority Of
the voters Of the county have asked
for a bill to submit the matter TO the
people. II he be an honorable man,
no member can find reason to OPP
pose the proposition.

A FEW parties are endeavoring to
make capital against the proposed
vote on the county scat question by
stating that an extra election would
involve a large expense upon the
county. All due provisions have
been made so that the county shall
not lose one solitary cent even
should the question come before the
people at a special election, as the
citizens Of Spokane Falls have de-
posted $1,000 with the county
auditor to defray all expenses Of
said election. We call the attention
of our legislators to this fact, and
when any lobbyist makes a plea
that the county cannot stand the
expense they can understand that
no expenses are at stake.

step-father.

growled the customer, but before he
could raise up, the weapon was dis
charged and the bullet raled across
the shoemaker's skull, cutting out
swath of hair and drawing blood
"Tll brain the cub - shouted the
customer, but the shoemaker rubbed
his head with one hand and held
out the other to detain him, and
said;
sSay, don't! If you lay a hand
on him his mother will brain me

the pepper"
II won't !"
'At that moment his mother came
down stairs and shOuted:

here and see that you have fail

for two whole weeks Go on Jakey
and have another pop at old Pegs!'
The stranger grabbed his boots

shoemaker gave him look which
read:
''You see how it is, and dom
blame me!'-EX.
