gon for Wasco county.
In the matter of the final report of the
grand jury for the February term, 1892.
We, the grand jury, respectfully report
to the court that we have now been in

quired into the condition and manage
ment of all offices pertaining to the courts
of justice in the county, and also into the
condition and management of all jaiIs
and prisons within the county, and the
county hospital.
We find that the office, books and &C
counts of the county clerk are in excel

fully kept and managed.
The same may be said of the sherif's,
and the county Jail is in better condition
and cleaner than it has been heretofore.
The county hospital is in good condi-

inmates thereof are well cared for and are
well pleased and speak highly of their
treatment
The county treasurer's books are well
kept and his accounts are correct and ac-
curate.
Having finished our labors we respect

An Agreeable Evening.
From Fridays Daily.

The ladies of St. Paul's Episcopal church
guild gave a reception last evening to the
members of the congregational and parish
at the rectory. There was goodly mum.
ber present, though some of the familiar
faces Of the parish were missing, which
was regretted by those in attendance.
Games, music and the social chat caused the
evening to pass very pleasantly and enjoya-
bly,. The programme of music consisted of
vocal and instrumental selections. Vocal
solos by Mrs. Lcchhead and Mr.. Stewart,
and piano solos by Miss Brooks afforded
much pleasure to the listeners; while the
solos and Duets ON the harmonlca by
Messrs. Stewart and F. Garrettson revealed
to the delighted assembly what charming
music may be produced from mere toy.
These gentlemen are truly artists, and the
ladies owe them many thanks for their kind
assistance. Light refIe~h h,nents were served
during the evening. The hour OF departure
came all too quickly when all separated, as
surIDg the committee that the evening had
been pleasantly spent.

The Prineville Stage Route.

ANTELOPE, Feb. 2, 1892.
Editor TINES -MoUNTAINEER:
Mr.. A. w. Branner, proprietor of the
line, came in today on the stage from
PrIneville. He reports the roads in ter
rlble condition, and, in places, almost i'm
passable. The route by way of Antelope
causes fully five hours delay IN the de-
livery of the mail at Prineville, and this
would be remedied if the route was by
way OF Bakeoven and Cow canyon. Mr..
Branner says the road between Bakeoyen
and Antelope is very bad, and from the
latter place to Cross Keys, in places the
mud is about two feet deep and very slip
perry. Petition after petition have been
presented to the department at Washing
ton City to change the service via the old
route by Cow canyon, but these have re-
ceived no attention whatever. Mr.. Bran
ner has double the number of men and
horses employed than ever haye been, and
still it is impossible for him to make reg
ular time. AS Prineville is growing
town, and The Dalles is the nearest rail-
road point the mail service should be by
the shortest and most available road
TIMES MOUNTAINEER.
The above explains itself, now for the
facts:
First-The roads at the time Mr.. Bran
ner was out here were muddy, but not as
bad as he says; the stage time is about
one hour later at Antelope than IN good
weather.
Second-Thc road from Antelope to
Cross Keys is dry almost the entire dis
tance, and never has been two feet deep
in mud.
Third-The people at Prinevllle have
petitioned for the change via the old route.
They have no reasonable grounds for the
change. Antelope Is a growing town,
and a great many get their mail there,
and she is entitled to daily service from
The Dalles and Prineville both. The diff
ference TO the contractor and department
is six miles for which he is allowed two
hours extra time, which Mr.. Branner uses
one hour on the Prineville end and one
hour on The Dalles end, which is not af-
fected. Now for the difference in time
should we do without daily mail from
Prineville for two or three hours time?
"ouItu-hr. DranHer udS one tAId
man and one extra team for winter SER
vice, just what other contractors have
used on the old route.
Trusting you will publish this in justice
to the people of Antelope, we are very
truly yours, w. BOLTON,

istry at Salem. His wife survives him
The funeral was held from his home at
II o'clock Friday, conducted by the Ma
sonic lodge of Turner, Rev. Whitaker of
the Salem Baptist church officiating.
Interment was In the family burying
ground on the place.
There is little doubt that E. r. Luckey,
the missing merchant of Eugene, who
who was supposed TO have been foully
dealt with IN Portland, has fed the cOun-
try, leaving debts aggregating many
thousands of dollars. Four attachments
were placed upon his property yesterday
to satisfy the claims of the Eugene Ma
tional bank, the First National bank,
Lane county bank and F. B. Dunn, aggre-
eating over $4,000. Very little property
can be found upon which the creditors
can file claims The affairs of the Eugene
Canning and Packing company, of which
he was president, are in deplorable con-
dition. An Investigation shows that it is
practically bankrupt and the stock al
most worthless. 1t is now known that
Luckey collected all the cash he could
possibly raise just before his departure.
He went 10 Eugene eight years ago with
SAC, 1000, most of which has disappeared
through bad business management.-Er.

A Remarkable Dream,
The DALLEs, Feb. IL, 1892

THE DALLEs, Feb. IL, 1892.
Editor TINES -MoUsTAINEER:
If l remember correctly in the month of
February or March, 1860, there were living
in The Dalles two Cinnamon, one of whom
by the name of Lee Wung had wash
house near the northwest corner of Court
and Main streets. About that time there
came from below two Cinnamon en- route to
Walla Walla, arriving on the steamer
Idaho-the only conveyance. The upper
river being blocked with ice they hired two
men who had charge OF pack train to take
them and their goods to their destination.
About a week after they started Lee Wung
called on Col. N. 81. Gates and told him the
Cinnamon had been murdered by the two
packers, and he saw the act done while as
leep. He said d. shot one Chinaman and
killed him and the other ran. He was fol-
lowed ny the other packer and murdered.
Col. Gates thought the Chinaman demented,
as he had not been out of town since the
Celestials started on their trip, and referred
him to Mr.. Charles White, who was sheriff
at the time. Mr.. White paid little
attention to the story of Lee Wung, think
he had been Indulging in opium. and, in
turn, referred him to Mr.. Victor Trevitt.
He listened to Wings description of the
murder. and told him he had been smoking
too much opium. The matter was dropped
for several days, when the two packers re-
turned and reported that they had delivered
the Chinaman and goods safely at their des-
tination. They spent money quite freely,
and soon sold their mules and left town. A
few days after their departure Mr.. Green
Arnold came to town from near where PEN
dleton Is now situated, and said he had
found dead Spaniard or Mexican on the
other side of the Deschutes, close to where
the town of Wasco now stands. Sheriff
White then secured posse of men, and to-
gether with Lee Wung-who insisted on
accompanying them-started for the place.
On arriving at the spot designated, the re-
mains of dead Chinaman was found, and
Lee Wung guided them to the place where
the other was killed. Wung had never
The Dalles times-mountaineer. [volume] (The Dalles, Or.) 1882-1904, 1892-02-13

been absent from the city since the China
men had started for Walla Walla; but his
dream was clear in details that he had not
the least difficulty in pointing out the place
| where the murder was committed. What
Lee told Col. Gates and others that he saw
while asleep proved to be facts.
After the sheriff and posse had buried the
Cinnamon, they returned to The Dalles.
and Mr.. White arrested one of the packers
near Jacksonville and the other one in that
city. They were brought back, examined
before magistrate. and held to answer the
crime. After being in the old city Jail for
some time they managed to escape by cut
ting off the lock of the door, and were
never recaptured.
Nothing more was heard of them until
1865, when Mr.. Trevitt, happening to be in
Seattle, was walking in the suburbs, and
noticed man sitting on wagon tongue ap-
parently IN the last stage of consumption,
who called him by name. Trevitt did not
recognize the man until he told him his
ers who murdered the Cinnamon at Spanish
Hollow. He further stated that Lee Wung
related the facts as correctly as if he had
witnessed the act, and advised Trevitt never
to kill Chinaman as he had no peace of
mind since he committed the deed. He
died soon afterwards. The other man es-
capped to California, where he was shot and
left for dead by posse of men who had fol-
lowed him and his companions in charge cf
a band of stolen horses. He finally recov-
cred; but is now cripple, dependent upon
public charity.
Since writing the above I have read it
over to Mr.. Chas. White, who was in the
city during the week, and he yerifes every
word in relation to this remarkable dream.

Exchange: They needed money badly in

held social, and here is the way they
raised the money: Across one end of the
room was curtain. For an hour the guests
chatted after the old-fashloned church social
style. Then the curtain was suddenly
withdrawn. There in row stood six of the
prettlest women in the congregation. blush.
ing and smiling, each bearing upon her bo-
som placard on which were the words:
"You may kiss me for 25 cents" 1t was
fifteen minutes berore the device began to
work, but when it did tine silver quarters
fairly showered into the aprons of the
young ladies' circle. Old and young
eagerly rushed to the front to exchange
coins for kisses. The show lasted only
short time, when the curtain was again
drawn. Then the storm burst. The women
were Jealous of their husbands and a dozen
or more family tights were started at once.
Soon it was announced that the women
would pose again in short time. Then
the angry women tore down the curtains
and blew out the lights. A scrambling for
the door followed, and for over two hours
the church members gossiped and fought on
the sidewalks. They finally di dispersed and
a factIonal church fight is the result.

Iron Hall Matters.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 17.-Assignee
A. E. Stockweli, of the Mutual Banking
Trust Surety and Safe Deposit Company,
of which concern he was counsel, was
arrested this afternoon on warrant
based on an affidavit made by George S.
Graham, the receiver for the order Of
the Iron Hall for Pennsylvania. The af-
fidavit charges Stockwell with conspir-
acy with others to divert the funds of the
Iron Hall into various unlawful chan
nels, but particularly into the Mutual
Banking Company, which obtained, as
it has been revealed, $4,000 Of the
orders monev. From present appear
ances it is evident that the proceedings
to GUST Stockwell as assignee of the
Mutual Company are TO be renewed, if
they have not only begun.
Counsel for Stockwell to-day filed in
common pleas court demurrer to the
petition of James F. Failey, of Indiana
polls, receiver of the supreme sitting of
the Iron Hall, denying that there is
ground for Stockwell's removal.
