of Miss Williams to spend few hours
angling. The handsome parlors were
decorated with masses of roses, and the
guests gaily sported with the little fishes
which, unlike ordinary clubs and suck
ers, were valued only as they were num-
bered high or low. The hours flew bv,
and the fascination of the sport increased
until halt was called, and the success
ful anglers were awarded the prizes.
Miss Lena Wentz and Mr.. c. E. Wilson
carried off the first prize, and Miss Fitz-
Gerald and Mr.. S. Campbell the "booby"
prize. After refreshments were served,
dancing was entered upon and shortly
after ~ O'Clock the party broke up, all
having had a delightful time. There

HooDRIvER.


There are few prettier localities in the
world for town site than that of Hood
River in this county. 1t is charminglv
situated on the south bank of the Column
bia which it overlooks. AS place to
enjoy quiet and rest during the heated
term, under the shade of it ample foli-
age, or breathe it's health giving air by
the banks of it's beautiful streams, it has
few equals and no superiors, anywhere.
There is all the charm which scenery can
impart allied to the. healthiest climate
in the world. A very superior class of
highly cultivated people reside there.
All the advantages of educational and
religious institutions are present. There
are two very tasteful church buildings
in the town and two others about three
distant. The fraternal and other So
cieties are represented by lodge of K.
of P, a G.. A. r. post and Woman's Re-
lief Corps, one grange and two alliances.
There are four general stores, one furni-
ture store, one hotel, two restaurants,
two livery stables, two real estate offices,
one shoemaker shop and two blacksmith
shops. The professional corps is repre-
sented by three physicians, two attor-
neys and one doctor of dental surgery
A very lively little weekly full of bright
savings and local happenings is pub
lished by Mr.. j. H. Cradlebaugh and
facetiously but inappropriately called
the Glacier. There is fine graded
school in the town and six common
schools in the valley. The population of
the valley is estimated at l400 souls. A
large number of persons from Portland
and other places own property in the
valley or have summer residences there.
Cloud Cap Inn, at the base of Mount
Hood, away up in the region of eternal
snow and favorite resort for summer
tourists, is less than days journey from
the town. There is no better trout
fishing anywhere than can be found at
reasonable distance. 1t is never very
hot there and the nights are always
deliciously cool. Take it for all in all
the world has few more charming spots
than Hood River and the valley called
by that name.

druggist of the same city what was best
to give baby for cold? 1t was not ne

if not the idol of his life was in distress.
"We give our baby Chamberlain Cough

was no danger in giving it even to a
baby. For sale by Snipes &. Kinersly.

A Novel Fish Wheel.

Haworth & Thurman have stopped
fishing for suckers and are going fishing
for salmon in the raging Columbia
They are building two fiat boats eight
feet wide by thirty long which will be
placed side by side five feet apart on the
principle of a catamaran. The boats
will not be caulked at all but will be of
thin plank and the entire bottom COW
cred with sealed five gallon oil cans laid
side by side. This will be the weight
sustaining power, and as each can. will
hold up forty-five pounds it will be seen
that it will require some considerable
weight to put three hundred or more
cans under water. The outfit will be
light and can be run anywhere on a
heavy dew. Between. the two boats, will
be paced q. fish wheel five feet in width,
and the owners will run the concern any
where that there are indications of sal
mon. The expense of the whole outfit
will not exceed a couple of hundred dol
lars and any good days fishing will net
that amount. The genial Sam will fur
nishsthe motive power for good strong

BALMACEDA's BETRAYAL.
He Owed His Downfall to the Treachery Of
the Argentine Minister.

lie E4lnlsLeT.
SEATTLE, Dec. ia special to the Post
Intelligencer from Port Townsend, Wash,
says that J.'PeTkins Shanks, an American
engineer, who for the past twenty-five years
has resided in Chile, and who arrived
here q few days ago, tells this story of
how Bamaceda was betrayed. He said:
"Balmaceda was bstraved by the Argen-
tine Minister, Senor Uribirru. in Sau-
tiagO. in this manner: When Bal
maceda sent his Minister TO request
the hospitality of Senior Uribirru to
shelter him against the attack of the in
snrgents, it was agreed that Balmaceda
ahould arrive at the Argentine Legation al
4 O'Clock in the morning. When he arrived
he was met by the Senor, and. on enter
of his most bitter enemy, Mrs. Carlos
Walker-Martinez who had taken refuge in
the same Legation. fearing an attempt on
her life on the part of the Balmacedans.
Great confusion followed the meeting and the
lady was compelled to take a solemn oath
not to diyulge the Whereabouts of Balma-
ceda. But she entered into an intrigue with
the Argentine Minister to betray Balmaceda
to George Montt. Word was sent notify
ing Montt of Balmaceda's hiding place.
Montt Immediately took steps to induce
the eX-Dictator to surrender himself peac e.
fully to the newly constituted authorities,
promising every guarantee of fair and Just
trial. Balmaceda agreed to surrender after
the holidays. From the day that Balmaceda
received the first word from Montt he
commenced preparing for death and began
writing instructions disposng of all of his
personal affairs, and when the time arrived
for him to surrender he killed himself,
knowing he could not receive justice"

Preparing the House Committees.
Special TO THE MORNING CALL

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13-It is understood
that reciprocity negotiations with the sugar.
producing colonies of Great Britain in the
West Indes, authorized by Section of the
Mckinley Bill, have reached a satisfactory
conclusion in every case except that of
Jamaica.
The conditions agreed upon involve the
interests of Trinidad and Barbados, to-
gether with those Of Demerara and British
Guiana.
In the case of Jamaica, it is believed that
the only difficulty in the way of reaching an
agreement is presented by the amount of
revenue which that colony is asked to re-
linquish and which its representatives here
are understood TO declare is impossible
to sacrifice without impairing the credit of
the colony, which is pledged to secure rail-
way bon ds guaranteed by the GOyernm e mt
and held TO large extent in this country.
The United States seven years ago made
the same offer ms now in regard to the re-
moyal of sugar duties. England would then
have none of it on the ground that such an
arrangement would cOntravene British free
trade IDEAS The colonsts cannot fail to b g

THE PAPAL QUESTION.
Exchange Of Explicit Declarations Between
France and the Vatican.

LONDON. Dec. 13.-The Standards Rome
correspondence says: Explicit declarations
have passed between France and the Vati-
can with view of promoting cordial rela-
tons between that Government and the
Papal See. On the part of France it was
stated that the movement did not desire to
attack the Pope, but the question of inter-
nal order constrained the Government to
maintain its own authority. To this the
Vatican replied that it did not desire to
Bishops to be prudent, but did not impose a
certain line of conduct in regard TO such a
delicate question.
The Chronicles Rome correspondence
says: The Pope has sent copies of an allo-
cHion which he will read at to-morrow's
consstory to all the chancellories of Eu-
rore. 1t will declare that the law of guar
antees is not sufficient to guarantee the lib
erty of tile Pope. The address has been
modified since Count Kalnoky's recent
speech on the papal question in the Aus
trian Delegation.
PARIS, Dec. .13.-Commenjng upon reso-
luton adopted by the Chamber of Deputies,
expressing confidence in the Government in
connection with the anti-cerical agitation,
conservative journals express qualification

NEARLY A MURDER.
Terrible Fight Between Sailors
ON the Front.

The handy manner in which a sailor can
use knife was clearly shown about $50
O'clock last night, when P eter Marando and
Manuel Desivey got into a row In the
saloon at IL Commercial street, near East.
The men auarreled over card game, and
Manuel called Peter liar. Peter denied
the allegation, and to prove he was right
sailed into Manuel in lively manner. Il
was game in which Peter found his oppo-
nent a regular John L. Sullivan, and he
was getting the worst of the battle, when In
order to even things up he changed his
tactics and drew murderous- looking carv-
ing-knife with a blade at least ten inches
long and proceeded to carve DeSiVcy.
He slashed him over the head and face In
terrible manner. Desivey fought for his
life, and succeeded in wrestling the knife
from Marando, and would, no doubt, have
paid him back in his own kind. but Peter
concluded that he had business around the
corner and left the place in hurry
Officers Holland and Henneberry were
quickly on the spot, and at once began hunt
for the would-be murderer. After q long
search he was found concealed on the roof
of neighboring house crouchiug behind an
ash-barrei. The patrol-wagon was called
and the wounded man sent to the Receiy-
ing Hospital. while Marando was taken to
the North HarbOr Station and charged with
an assault to murder. Both are negroes,
and have been shipmates on Whaier
