near his bed and they spent an hour in
earnest conversation, during which the con-

prised the prison officials, and to one OF
them Who expressed his surprise to the
wife, she said; u forgive him and still
love him.

THAT'S Good News
WASHINGTON, April 4th-No news has
been received by the officers of the Navy
department up to half-past Z o'clock this
evening IN regard 10 the floating of the
Nipsic at Samoa. The announcement
throusA the Associated Press that the ves-
sci had been Hoated was received with a
great deal of satisfaction by Secretary
Tracy and the bureau of officers of the NAVY
Department.
That's good news, that's good. I am
glad TO hear it, said the Secretary.
Commodore Walker, Chief of the Bureau
OF Navigation, was also highly gratified at
the intelligence. That's a gain of one"
said he. " If we can get her afioat and sent
to Auckland and repaired it will be doing
very well. am glad to hear that she has
been fioated. The Nipsic is good boat, a
rs Inr, / T
think il likely that the Trenton or Vandalia
could be saved, as the dispatches indicate
they were too badly damaged.
Almost Worried to Death.
WASHINGTON, April h.-Representative
Hermann OF Oregon says that the delegation
from that State has not united upon a list
of persons to fill the prominent Federal
positions there, and probably will not do
so ar present. Differences as to whom
should be appointed exist, and the delega-
tlon is endeavoring to harmonic the fac
uohs. MIR. Hermann says that he does not
expect TO leave for hone for some time.
Said he: Pressure for office fiom our
State is tremendous We have had dele
CATION of Oregonians here since the inau-
guration. l pass my days in travelling from
one Department to another, and my nights
are given up to callers. Usually am never
more than day or two behind with my
correspondence. Now am nearly month
behind in answering letters, and can't tell
when l will be able to bring my correspond
ence up to date"
The Coast Defense Vessel.
WASHINGTON, April 4th - While the
Union Works of San Francisco is not the
lowest bidder for the construction of the
new armored coast-deiense vessel, it is
more than likely that the contract for its
construction will be awarded to them. 1t
seems that the specifications call for 400
horse power. Irving NJ. Scott, the general
manager of the Union Iron Works, who
has been in this city for some DAYS, guaran-
tees to develop this amount of horsepower,
while Cramp & Sons the lowest bidders,
agree only to develop 1,500- horse power,
and Navy Department official said To- day
under these circumstances it was more
than likely that the Union Iron Works
would be awarded the contract. The award
will probably be made next Monday.

Andy Larkins, the well-known horsemen, d,

ters to await the arrival of the Chicago Off
GERS. The arrest is something of mys-
terry, it being alleged that the prisoners are
wanted in illinois fer stealing a string of
valuable lacing horses from Kentucky
The horses arrived here yesterday, and
were in the possession of Mckinney and
Larkins when they were arrested. The
animals are worth between twenty and
twenty five thousand dollars. The pris-
oners refuse to talk.

tive cabooses, and neither was hurt. The

with his valet, reached this city at 7:30 to-
night. Mr.. Booths physician met him at

paralysis, which was undoubtedly due to
excessive smoking. He directed the patient
to remain indoors, and enjoy quiet and rest
for few days. He thought Mr.. Booth
would be able to resume his engagements.

Deputy Marshals who went into the coun
try to-day to make evictiops from river

ance from the settlers, and returned
