PoRTLABD, August 16.-This morning the
newsboys inaugurated a strike against the
Oregonian, which they refused to take out
at the old price. At 8 o'clock, about 100
formed in line and marched through the
streets, carrying flags and transparencies.
Several attempts we're made to start out
boys with papers, but they we're oYertaken
by the strikers, who took their papers from
them and destroyed them. The boys have
been paying three cents per copy. They
ask a reduction Of half cent.
The boys, on banners, carried this state
ment: "The Oregonian wants to charge
US three and half cents for paper which
1t sells to newsdealers ror two and half
cents" The Oregonian management say
this is a wrong statement. The newsboys
and newsdealers are and have all along
been charged alike, three cents per copy,
and no advance was made or proposed TO
the boys. The boys, besides, are allowed
to return their unsod copies and have the
money refunded. The Oregonian thinks
that if it is worth two.cents TO sell paper
IL is worth three cents to make It..

Rismarck's first interview with Professor
Schwenninger was somewhat amusing
The prince, accustomed to bulldoze every
body. met with more than his match when
he came IN contact with the famous doctor.
The man of blood and iron was suffering
from neuralgia, and was in an extremely
bad humor. The doctor was not in the
least put out by the princes savage looki
he sounded him thoroughly and then COM
menced TO question him. After a few mo-
ments Of examination the prince became
impatient.
"Now, I'm tired Of your interminable
questions" ." he said. 81 don't see the util-
ity Of them, and you are simply annoying
me-"
The doctor, who is made Of very innam-
mable material, became ignited by the
sparks OF Bismarck's angry eyes.
you find that j am annoying youW he
said. "You want TO be cured without
being obliged to answer questions. Why
the devil, then, didn't you call in a Yete-
rnary surgeon2 The vets cure their
patients without asking them any ques-
lions"
Bismarck bounded to his feet, olenched
his fists, and glared in rage and astonish-
ment at the man Of science. The doctor
folded his arms and looked deiantly at the
prince until the latter resumed his seat and
said: every WE'LL If you can't cure me
without questioning me, 20 ahead with
your internal examination, I'll be very
fortunate indeed if your medical skill
proves equal TO your impertinence. or the
latter you have just given me a splendid
specimen"
The prince was cured, and he and the
doctor are fast friends now. They resemble
each other In character and disposition

what the Canal Appropriation

what the Canal Appropriation
Would DO for the state.
IL is estimated in round figures that the
proposed canal will cost 50, 100000. Now
let us relate this sum to other and more
generally distributed needs of the state, and
its importance will be realized. Spokane,
Tacoma, Seattle, Port Townsend and other
cities should be provided with public build
ings, and the sum Of $l,C000CJ, equitably
distributed among these cities would be Of
a great deal more service TO the state than
the construction of this canal. Following
out this estimate, the remaining $500, 900
would go very far towards improving the
Willapa, Grays Harbor, Skagit, Snohomish,
Columbia and Snake rivers. The improve
ment of the Columbia river should fall
upon Oregon and Washington, share and
share alike, as both would profit from It,
If So 10000 we're expended as indicated
the jealousy Of all sections would be salts
fed and the money would be distributed
equitably among them. The very amount
that is asked for in the interests of really
few men in Seattle would accomplish
wonders in the interest Of the state at large.
Such an expenditure Of the amount named
would be TO the interests Of business
throughout the state, and conduce 10 har-
monious action not only In commercial
but in political circles.-Spokane Review.

JACKSON, Mich, August 16.-Wm. Cud-
dy, contractor of the firm of Phillips and
Cuddy, of the Michigan, state prison in
this city was killed at that institution
yesterday afternoon by a life convict
named Henry Blackman who is doing
time for numbering his wife and family.
Cuddy was at his desk in the broom
factory writing. Blackman crept behind
him and knocked him over the head with
a hammer No one was in the room at
the time. Cuddy was discovered by a
guard in an unconscious condition and
blood streaming from the frightful wound
in his head. He died within an hour.
Blackman was at once taken to the cell and
practically confessed the crime. 1t is said
that last week this same convict assaulted
Cuddy but did not infict serious injuries
on him. He was then hogged in thorough
manner by prison officials. and then swore
that he would kill Cuddy. He was allowed
to go back to the broomshop, however. A
convict, friendly to Cuddy, informed that
gentleman today that Blackman had it in
for him. Cuddy did not take the matter
at all seriously simply saying, ooh, guess
not" The broom contracts of Phillips q
Cuddy expired yesterday and Cuddy was
about to retire. Blackman was sentenced
for life from Oakland county, for killing
his wife and her sister. About six months
ago Contractor Cuddy reported him as a
fractious convict for not doing his work
Blackman then promised to have revenge,
and only six months ago he drew a knife
on contractor. The murderer has been
adjudged insane and will be sent to the
asylum for dangerous insane criminals at

Dynamite Bombs I'm a Piano.


DETROIT, August LEONE Of the most
mysterious and sensational affairs that has
startled the country in years was made
public by the arrest of Jennie Tabor, Of
Hudson, Mich. Twenty dynamite cart
ridges were found in the top Of parlor
organ at the Tabor homestead, three miles
northwest of Hudson There was trouble
over the property among the members Of
the family. and the suspicious of the
younger brother being aroused he insti-
tuted a search, which resulted in sensa-
tional discovery. The Tabor family is one
Of the best known and wealthiest in the
state. A year ago it consisted Of Henry
Tabor, his wife, and three children, Josie
Jennie and Harry. Jose is now Mrs. J. II.
Elmore and lives in Hudson. Jennie,
although somewhat eccentric, has moved
in the best society and has been much
sought after. She was her fathers favorite,
and it was generally understood she would
fare best in the division of his estate. Her
mother was opposed to this, believing that
all the children should be treated alike. A
family quarrel ensued, which was sus-
pended for a time about year ago, when
Jne WlIe ana mOJner uleu suddenly OF no
particular ailment. Soon the old quarrel
broke out afresh and was carried on with
vigor until a few months ago when old
Mr.. Tabor was found dead in bed one
morning. The physician said his death
was caused by heart failure, but the mat
ter was much talked Of and his death was
considered mysterious. Jennie seemed
much grieved and refused to be conforted.
Soon after her lover Edgar Chaplain a
prominent young man, while visiting her
was taken suddenly i'll and in spite of ten
der nursing by Jennie, he died. Again the
girl went wild with grief but soon recovered
and received the attentions ofa young man.
OF late people in the vicinity missed money
and vaiuables and Jennies family began to
watch her. She was seen to purchase dy-
Mantle cartridges and when the house was
searched a number Of them we're found
The girl then took poison but will recover
She admitted that the dynamite was pro-
cured to blow up the house and acknow-
lodged the several robberies spoken Of
Owing to these confessions ugly rumors
are rife about the mysterious deaths in the
family, physicians who have examined
the girl say she has been cunningly in
sane for years

TacOmans Believe.

TacOmans Believe.
SEATTLE, August 16.-The Post-Intelli-
gencer says: Opposition to the candidacy
of James Hamilton Lewis in this county
from Judge Burke, d. II. Gilman, and
other party leaders has been very active
today and the friends of the candidate
have become so alarmed that they tele-
graphed him in eastern Washington,
where he had gone to look after his fences,
to come back and look after his home
delegation. L. d. Ross of the city demo-
cratic committee today wagered $120 with
John Considine of the Peoples theatre
that Lewis would not be nominated, and
l.. b. Hart of the same committee offered
to bet 5000 the same way. An effort will
be made to get the King county delegation
TO side track Lewis for @. W. Griggs or
some other Pierce county man and make
a trade in favor of the Lake Washington
ship canal. A big anti-Lewis lobby will
go to Olympia aud the candidate will
doubtless have an equally large number
of friends there
