the Right Kind of a governor.

Nashville, Nov. 30.-''The convicts
shall be returned to the mines if it takes
every able bodied man in the state to do
it, said Governor Buchanan last night.
The lessees have made demand upon
the state for convicts, this demand was
answered promptly that when the con-
victs were recaptured they would be re-
turned if supplied with sufficient guard,
and proper quarters will be built at
once and this will take about two weeks.
The guard will not be taken from the
existing militia companies of the state,
but men will be enlisted for the purpose.
About 300 of the 672 released convicts
have been recaptured.

WIN Build the Road.

PORTLAND, Nov. 30.-ssWe intend to
commence work on the railroad between
Goble and Astoria in January and push
it to speedy conclusion" said Walter
v. Smith, vice president of the company
today. Smith further expressed him
self as having little confidence that New
York parties represented by Dwyer,
would take hold of the road. He did
not intend to cast any suspicion on
Dwyer's project but on the contrary was
anxious to have them build. The Gable
company is composed mostly of Astoria
peoble who take it upon themselves tc
build the road when they conclude that
the road would not be constructed until
they undertook it.

vices from the massacre of the Belgian
mission at Tokou state that three hun
dred Europeans and native Christians
were massacred. 1t is believed that
not a single Christian in the district
escaped. CONSERVATION prevailed
among the protestant missionaries in
the district, through which it is expected
the rebels will have to pass. The local
officials in tasmania declared they were
powerless to protect the. missionaries,
and if they desired to save their lives
they had better seek safety in fight.
The missionaries at Tsusnaha have,
therefore, abandoned their stations and

Fifty Years a Bishop.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 9o.-Just fifty years
ago Peter Richard Kenerick' consecrated
bishop of the Roman Catholic Church.
Today his golden jubilee was celebrated
with great pomp. Only once before has
the golden jubilee of a bishop been cele-
brated, and that of John McHale arch
bishop of Tuam, Ireland, eleven years
ago. 1t is an event SO rare that the
whole world is interested in it, and in
this case, not simply because such cele-
brations are SO unfrequent, but because
the Archbishop Kenerick has filed these
fifty years with usefulness and good.

VALPARAISO, Nov. 2S.-Advices state
that the American war vessel Yorktown
is an object of considerable curiosity,
and crowds from the vicinity of Val
paraiso are visiting the harbor to see
the new arrival. The Baltimore men
are delighted to be relieved of the iso-
lated condition, and now feel, some of
them say, as if they were not afraid of
anything the Chilians might do. The
American uniform ashore is treated
with more respect than ever, and the
Chilian police are rather over oficious
in seeing the American sailors are not
annoyed. The latter by special orders
from their officers, are careful to have as
little contact as possible with the
Chilians. All appears to be in doubt as
to the future, and no formal verdict has
yet been rendered by the judge of the
court of crimes as to the killing of the
Baltimore's sailors. The Chilian war
vessels have been taking some firing
practice, and it is ackn owledged on all
sides, although splendidly equipped,
they are utterly inefficient compared
with American gunners.

He VIII Send the Convicis Back to the
Mines---A Bishop Celebrates the
Fiftieth Year of his Reign.

/. McMINNNvILLE, Or, Nov. 30.-J. III.
Stine, editor of the Whiteson AdUance,
was shot last evening by H. G. Cook, a
section boss on the narrow gauge. Cook
then shot himself twice. Both men
were killed instantly.
Slime, Cook and German section
hand had been to Amity on foot, dis
tance of three miles from Whiteson.
When about half way back on their re-
turn, Slime walking about ten feet in ad-
vance of the others, Cook, quickly and
without warning, drew pistol and fired
at Slime, striking him in the back of the
neck breaking the spinal column. Then
turning the pistol on himself, he fired
one. shot into his breast, missing the
heart about two inches. He then placed
the pistol to his temple and fired a
second shot through his brain. The sec
tion hand, thinking his time was also
come started to run at the first shot and
did not stop until he got to Whiteson.
A squad of men returned and found both
men dead.
No cause is known for the deed except
1T be sudden tit OF mental alteration.
Cook has been acting singular for several
days. The section hand with them said
that he had taken but two drinks OF
| whisky during the day and showed no
signs of intoxication. The men were
good friends and always on the best Of
terms and were talking pleasantly at the
time of the shooting. They were both
about 4s years of age and veterans of the
/ civil war.
Nothing is known of Cooks family re-
lations. He was brought here by the
corner last night and hundreds viewed
his remains today.
Slime leaves wife and one child. He
had been connected with papers at In.

and other points. He will be buried al

Can't Pay The Expense of Breaking

New YoRK, Nov. 30.-There is no
material change in the aspects of affairs,
in the Office of the suspended firm of
Field Lindley Weichers and Co., this
morning. Assignee Gould was unable
to find assets enough to pay the clerks.
There is no bank account whatever, and
only a faint hope remained with him
that there might be some call loans be-
longing to the firm upon which he
might be able to realize something to
defray necessary expenses.

BUENos AYREs, Nov. 2S.-The conduct
of various governors of states in the in

posed revolt against Mitre if he was

CONDITION OF AFFAIRS IN CHINA.
The Troubles There not all Based UpoI
the Anti-Foreign Feeling.


the Antf-FOreign Feeling.
LoNoN, Nov. 2S.-The Times this morn
ing publishes dispatch from cores
pondent at Shanghai, which confirms the
report that the troubles in China are not
all based on the anti-foreign feeling en-
tertained by the natives. This is but
phase of the situation. The underlying
reason for the discomfort which prevades
many districts of China is the fact that
the natives of the country believe the
time is ripe to overthrow the Manchun-
dynasty, which was overthrown in 1914.
The movement has in view the driving
of the present emperor from power, and
placing native Chinese ruler upon the
throne. The Times correspondent says
the rebels have already captured ebay.
sang in the province of Sea iona and
Shing King in Manchooria. They are
rapidly gaining accessions to their ranks,
and have quite formidable army. They
are marching on the capital at Pekin>
The imperial forces are preparing to.
meet them, and it is believed a desperate
battle will soon be fought. The intelli-
gence that the rebels are marching to an
attack of Pekin causes the greatest ex-
citement in that city.

Three thousand Government troops have
been sent to re-enfurce the garrison at Ton-

battle has been fought at Tongoy.
The rebels have occupied Llmache Alto,
a town only twenty-five miles from Val
paraso.
At Limache Alto the rebel forces took
possession of the national factories and ex-
PEELED tho Director and adhercnts of Presi-
dent Barmaceda from the town.
The rebels have also occupied QuillOta, in
the province OF Valparaiso, fifty miles from
Santiago, on the Ancona5ua, twenty miles
from the Pacific.
The property of foreign residents is suf-
fering considerably from the rebellion, in
spite of the efforts of representatives of
foreign powers to protect the interests OF
the citizens of the various countries they
represent. The action of the diplomatic
representatives has been so discournging to
those officials that they have formally in
formed the Chilean Government that they
VIII embark on board the vessels of foreign
powers if the conflict continues. President
BalmacedH, in reply. has asked the Ministers
and COnsuls to delay taking any action for
few days, as he hopes to be able to sup
press the rebellion within that time.

ceved at the office of Flint 81 Co. this after

Eustice Makes an Explanation-The Bill to
Prevent Counterfeiting Passed.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The Senate met
at noon to-day and the journal of Thursday,
governing the proceedings of Thursday,
Friday, Saturday and Monday, was read
and approved.
Eustce, rising to personal explanation,
read from the Washington Post the follow
ing sentence: "Mr. Eustice was also brought
from his home, although he did not arrive
until after the vote had been taken" He
said the statement was wholly inaccurate.
He had been in the chamber one hour be-
fore the vote had been taken, was present
when the vote was taken and did vote.
He deemed it proper to make this eXplana-
tion because of the Importance OF the Vose
on the clOture rule yesterday.
The credentials of Stanford and Irby, as
SenatorS-elect from California and South
Carolina for the term beginning March 4.
1891, were presented, read and placed nu
file. Those Of Stanford were criticized by
HOar as unsatisfactory in form, the Cover
nor undertaking to commission" Stanford
instead of simply certifying to his election.
Harris suggested that there was abundant
time before the expiration of the present
term to have them put in proper form.
Among the petitions presented and re-
ferred was one by Frye, in favor OF having
potatoes received by the Government and
treasury certificates issued thereon at 81
per bushel.
The House bill TO prevent c0unterfeiting
was passed, with amendments.
D0lphS resolution in relation to the power
OF minority to compel the attendance of

The House bill for the payment of Indian
depreciation claims was considered until
o'clock, when the Apportionment Bill was
taken up, the question being Davis amend
ment to give an additional member each to
Arkansas, Minnesota, Missouri and New

No action was taken and the Senate soon
adjourned.
