The Ridar Is Missing.

LINKvILLE (Oregon), March 2O.-Consid :
cradle alarm is felt here as to the probable
fate of Samuel Colyer, who left here March

To- day Indians reported that horse an
swering the description of the one ridden by
Colyer had been found dead in a trail lead
ing to Wocuss Lake, an arm of Big Klam-
ath. The horse was saddled, aud the saddle
had a roll of blankets tied on. The Indi-
ans were afraid to search further. A search

ance is rapid they drop their voices at the
end of the sentence in their hurry to reach
the next; their idiomS are compressed; even
their spelling is clipped.
Cold, self-possessed, precocious, alert,
keen-witted, Americans seem wanting In
feryor, passion, repose and expansveness.
Their versatility is phenomenal, but the
gift is dangerous if it dissipates powers OF
squanders talents. Few writers devote
themselves to letters as their sole vocation
with the self-devotion by which alone the
highest literary work is produced. Novel
writing is not undertaken by persons who
have any special aptitude for the work. 1t
forms an interlude in the literary life OF
writer's who are also versifers, critics, es-
sayists biographers and journalists.

the HatChet.

BOSTON. March 20.-It is stated here to-
night on the best of authority-no less per-
sOnage than the triumvirate of the Boston
League club, that the National League and
the American Association have concluded
to bury the hatchet and restore the national
agreement. On the basis of the present sit
uatlon the EXecutiv Board will be restored
in Chicago. The only issue-that Of the
Cincinnati club-will be settled by either
letting the association have the city or re-
arranging the dates for both clubs. This un-
derstanding has been brought about by the
general disgust at Al Johnson's treachery.
The association is mad clean through and
the league disguised.
As it is the association gets left and the
league is out many thousands of dollars,
the only one benefited being johnson. The
association claims that johnson cannot
fulfill his contract with the league without
its consent. and this it withholdS. The
league will not pay him unless the contract
is fulfilled. By rejOining issues the league
and association can save respectively their
money and their self-respect.
Kelly will go to Cincinnati. That was
finally decided tonight. 1t is also under
stood that Thurman will be forgiven and
restored to his position as Chairman of the
Board of Control. The news causes gen
eral rejoicing in baseball circles.
New YORK, March 20.-The following
was printed here this morning: The Ameri-
can Association and National League are
reconciled. The association has agreed to
come back under the protection of the
national agreement. These facts were dis
covered late yesterday. The immediate
cause of their disclosure was a dispatch re-
ceived by the Director of the New York
Club, stating that Allen Thurman had re-
signed the Craftsmanship of the National
Board and that Nick Young had been elect
ed in his place. 1t developed last evening
that Thurman's retirement had been planned
some time ago. Byrne, Doyle and Abel of
the Brooklyn Club have been particularly
active in effecting a reconciliation. The as
sociatiOm people refused to treat with Thur
man, which is the cause Of his retirement.
What made the league folks particularly
anxious for reconciliation with the asso-
citation was the discovery that league conf
plications were sure to result in Cincinnati
The league men discovered that johnson
does not control as much stock in the Gin
cinnati Club as they thought he did. He
only controls il with the assistance of the
Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia contin-
gents.
