McDonald's Political Forecast.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-In an inter-
view ex-senator Mcdonald said it
looked now as if it would be another
fight in 1888 between Cleveland and
Blaine. If the Republicans nominate
Blaine, Cleveland, he thought, would
carry New York and Massachusetts,
and probably New Hampshire and
Michigan. Mcdonald had no objec-
ton to Henry George entering the
field in 1888, for, taking the country
all over, he thought George would
draw more from the Republicans than
from the Democrats. He would carry
with him mostly organized labor,
which generally votes with the Repub-
licans for their so-called American
policy Of protection TO labor.

Senatorial Forecasts.

AUSTIN, Nov. 23.-The senatorial
question is exciting lively interest
among the politicians here. The fact
that Judge Reagan is now factor in
every calculation adds to the interest
in the election. That gentleman de-
MES being candidate for the office,
but a gentleman of keen political fore
sight hit the nail squarely on the head
to-day when he said: "Do you sup
pose Judge Reagan has been going
over the state making speeches out
side of his district for nothing"
He recently took a trip
to North Texas, and it is considered
significant that he communed with
Barnett Gibbs and other politicians
there at that time.
Maxey, Ireland and Terrell will no
doubt lead on the first ballot, though
Reagan will not be forgotten by his
East Texas friends then. No one has
ventured to analyze the vote of the
legislature. The Terrell men
boast that their man is in
the lead and, they say, will
sweep everything before him. Maxey
will have strong following, and Gov.
Ireland's friends claim that he will de-
vclop unexpected strength. He is not
much on the boast, but is believed to
be getting in his work very well.
George Pendleton it is believed has
the inside track for speaker of the
next legislature.

Horrible Holocaust.

MARION, Ind, Nov. 23.-The resi-
dence of James johnson, prosperous
farmer residing six miles ca.
of this place, was burned this
morning at o'clock. John
sons two daughters perished in the
flames. The household consisted of
Johnson and wife, two sons, two
daughters, and a farmland named
John Turner. The latter arose before
daylight and started fire in the stove.
Glancing at the clock he observed that
it was only o'clock instead Of 4, as he
supposed, and he returned to bed.
Turner and the two sons of his en-
ployer occupied one room on the first
floor, and Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson
another. The apartment of tho young
ladies was upstairs. A half-hour after
he had retired to his second sleep
Turner awoke with a sense Of suffoca-
ton to find the room full of smoke
and the flames rapidly enveloping the
building. He raised the cry of "Fire!"
and fastened to arouse the inmates.
Mr. and Mrs. johnson and their two
sons barely had time to escape in their
night clothes. Turner ran to the top
of the stairs and shouted to the young
ladies shat the house was on fire, and
then rushed out of the burning build
ing. The two daughters Of Mr. John
son, Misses Ella and Jane, were re-
served for more terrible fate and
wero cut off from all ESCAPE and per-
ished in the building.

BUNCO IMPROVEMENTS.
The Dumb Alphabet Rapidly Growing in
Favor Among the Crooks.

"The rising generation of bunco steer
ers," said detective yesterday, "has i'm
proved on the rackets of the old d-timers
Everybody knows that they work in pairs,
and when they meet a greeny one braces
him, gets his name and the town from
which he halls, apologies for mistaking
him for Mr.. Smith or Jones, of Cohoes, or
Kenaka, and goes back and posts his pal,
who usually waits around the corner for
him. The pal then tackles the bayseeder,
after consulting his guide-book, getting
the population, bank presidents names
and the names of q few leading mer-
chaLts of the town the 'hayseeder'
came from. 1t often happened that the
countryman grew suspicious as soon as
the first bunco man left him, after getting
his name, and when the second tackled
him shortly afterwnrd chock full of knowl-
edge about the town he came from, would
laugh at him, and il he knew any slang at
all would remark. Too thin.
"The new game is apt to prove more sue
cessful. Two men working together now
learn the dumb alphabet before they start
out. The first man to strike the stranger
throws his left hand behind his back, and
with the dumb alphabet telegraphs the
strangers name and whatever else he has
learned to his pal, who is close behind
him. In this way the second mau Is able

there is no room left for him to believe shat
the men are acting together. Then the

OREGONIAN SPORT.
Rabbit Hunting with Locomotives on q
Pacific Coast Railroad.
lpOrtlnnl Orernninn


Portland Oregouianl
The story of the locomotive engineer
stepping out on the COW catcher of his en-
ginc and picking up the wandering child
who is about to be run over has become so
common that it has lost its startling eff
feet. The engineers Of the Baker City
branch Of the Oregon Railway s. Naviga-
tion Company are training themselves for
something novel and startling in this STYLE
ofthing, and will soon be able to gather in
a full flock of sheep or kindergarten while
running at full speed. The country
through which this road runs abounds in
jack rabbits. These long -eared, long
logged animals take great delight in
racing with the locomotives, especially
at night, when they get on the
track and sail away in the glare of the
headlight. They will not jump the track,
and they hold their own very w ell for n
while, but the locomotive has the biggest
lungs and the rabbits wind gives out first.
AS soon as he begins to weaken the fire.
man gets out on the pilot, and just as the
painting fugitive is about to pass under the
engine he is snatched from the Jaws of
death in the most approved style. After
considerable practice at this a man can
pick up n whole drove of rabbits hand
running. Firemen who have not the op-
portunitv for this kind OF exercise can not
expect to be so skillful in gathering in
children as tho boys on the Baker City
branch.
