Editor Chronicle:
find in the Hood River Glacier of the
I'd inst. the following:
One of Captain Goes work horses was
found dead in the lower edge of the lit
tie alfalfa field in Idlewilde this week.
The horse was down in such manner
that he could not have gotten up, and
if it were not for the fact that there has
been an evident attempt to destroy the
identity of the animal, his death might
be laid to natural causes. Besides hav-
ing his side cut open, coal oilr had been
poured on the dead animal and set fire
to, burning the name and tail off and
singeing the hair7on the body 1t looks
very much as though the animal had
purposely been killed, for besides the
attempt to burnt it, it does not seem pos
sible that it could have got in the posi-
tion it did. From the evidences of the
struggle made by the animal it isspreb-
able that the burning was done while it
was yet alive. 1t does not seem posi-
BILE that any human being could so tor
ture a dumb brute, but the evidence
compels us to believe it was done.
lISI5 have lost thirteenA horses since I
have been in Hood River, "from natural
causes i have not heard OF, any other
person (that is close neighbor), who ever
lost one s'from natural causes.''
See the Glacier man. In order to save
the reputation if the good citizens OF
Hood RiyerfI will state that. I saw a
horse lying dead near the Alfalfa patch
in Idliwilde, about sixty rods from my
cottage, now occupied by J.! G. Markley.
Whose horse it was know not, but
supposed he had died with the blind
staggers, as one OF my horses had died 8
few days before.
He lay between rocks and oak grubs,
and had struggled and kicked till he
made large holes in the. ground, as al
horses dyiugswith the blind staggers will
do. When I saw the horse he seemed tc
have been dead week Gor morep as he
was terribly bloated and begun to smell
At that time there was no mutilation tc
be seen or hair burnt. !" 21l3 Ss&LAI :
If some Hood River hoodlum did this
for fun, or Rrpure devitment; the efti.
zens of Hood River ought not to be
charged with burning a. horse alive. -
think we have no people here low enough
down for that. The probability with me
is, if tits true that the horse was smuti.
lated' and "singed," it was done by
some .shalfr breed hoodlum'' aneorder II
give the Glacier man a sensational item
The Glacier man has evidently beer
again imposed upon, and he will con.
tinue to be, as long as he runs with tn,
crowd he has heretofore associated With
If he will tell us who took him to tn,
horse, I will show you the man who
believe ''mutilated" and ''singed" th,
horse for the benefit of the Glacier.

INCREASING IN NUMBERS.
The Amalgamated Association Is Now Said
to BE Flourishiug.

The Amalgamated Association Is Now Said
-. t. lie Flourishing.
The, activity in the ranks of the ANAL
gamated Association for the past month has
been very noticeable. The Homestead
strike, while attended with many disap-
pointing aspects for organized labor, has
only apparently melted workmen
to be more active in the cause,
and they are now organizing as
never before. It was thought that
the failure OF Homestead, the sympathy
strikes and the secession of large number
of fnishers would have a discouraging
effect on the Amalgamated Association.
Secretary Kilgallon said last evening that
the officers of the Amalgamated Association
were greatly encouraged over the recent
the increase OF membership of nearly all the
lodges throughout the country.
Continuing Mr.. Kilgsllon said: 81 be-
lieve that fully two-thirds of the skilled
men in rolling mills are now members of
the association, and the others are being
gradually brought into it. I. have reason
to believe that more lodges will be added in
a short time. We are doing all we can to
get the Homestead men who were thrown
out of employment positions at other
places, and have succeeded in many cases.
We intend to pursue conservative policy
and think the Homestead affair will only
act. to unite us more firmly than ever, as
the association already is in some respects. !"

HUMOR In THE COURTS.

Judge Stowe Afraid He Will Interfere
With the Mayors Business In Disposing
of an Illegal Liquor Seller-How an Old
Woman Took Her Fate.
A large quantity of business was trans
acted by Judges Stowe and Slagle yesterday
in the Criminal Court. One of the amusing
incidents was dialogue with Mary Barkley,
who pleaded guilty to selling liquor without
a license on Third avenue The old lady
was very deaf and the remarks of the Court
had to be repeated loudly in her ear by a
deputy sheriff. District Attorney Burleigh
asked her, loudly:
you plead guilty to selling liquor with
out a license?"
mo, sir I sold no liquor. I only sold
beer"
Judge Stowe-What kind of house do
you keep? don't want to interfere with
the Mayors business
Mrs. Barkley-A disorderly house.
Judge Stowe-That's good kind. $500
fine and three months to the workhouse.
'Three months,'' shouted Deputy
Sheriff in her ear
The old woman nodded and smiled pleas
antly and trotted off to take her place in
the line of prisoners

THE LATE JOSEPH WALTON.
Resolutions of the Farmers Deposit Ma
tional Bank, Pittsburg.

tional Bank, Pittsburg.
It is the melancholy duty of the Board oil
Directors of this bank to chronicle the death
of Joseph Walton, its President, who died
December 5, 1892, in the e6th year of his age,
and almost at the completion OF his twenty.
fourth year as a member of this board, and
of his thirteenth year as the President of
the bank. The members of the board now
desire to place on record their deep sense
OF the loss which the community have sus-
tanned by the death of one who by his ener-
gy and industry contributed so much to the
development of tho industries with which
he was connected; and of the loss which
this bank has peculiarly and especially sus-
tanned by the death of Captain Walton. HIS
intuitive knowledge of men; his great and
long experience and his wonderful sagacity
and Judgment in affairs of business were al
wavs freely exercised for the best interests
of the bank, and he was deeply interested in
its welfare.
Fully appreciating the responsibility
which rested upon him by reason of his Off
ciai position and of the trust and confidence
reposed in him by those interested in the
bank, both stockholders and depositors, he
faithfully gave his best efforts, often at per-
sonRl incon venience, to the affairs of the in
stitution, and its prosperity gave him an al
most paternal pleasure.
The members of the board deeply sympa-
thize with his sorrowtng family in their
great bereavement
1t is ordered that this resolution be placed
on the records of the board as a mark of re-
spect to the memory of Joseph Walton.
