BelIInger Appointed.

The nomination of Hon. Charles B.
Bellinger as United States district Judge,
to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of the late Judge Matthew P. Deadly,
was sent to the senate by the president
yesterday. The Telegram thus COM
ments upon his qualifications: "Judge
Bellinger, during his occupancy of the
dustry and acuteness, as well as for
learning and firmness. Policy had little,
if anything, to do with his decisions,
his conclusions being reached by critical
analysis presented with legal and logical
force. His experience as judge served
to increase his powers of advocacy, and
largely adds to his equipments as law
yer. In advocacy before the court he is
nearly always severely logical, though
when his case demands it, no one is
better able than himself to substitute
plausibility for logic to make the 'worse
appear the better reason" In his jury
appeals his own intellectually causes
him to address the head rather than the
heart, and hence his success in jury
trials is greater with an intelligent than
an ignorant panel. His wit is well
known, and often has his antagonist at
the bar WINGED under his incisiveness.
His mind is noted for alertness; in all
his actions moral sense is predominant ;
he is a reader, student and thinker; he
possesses unusual powers as writer,
and has talents in general that would
make him conspicuous and bring him
success in any station.

A Spiritual siren.

At Spokane the name of the Amazon
who commands the Salvation Army is
"Captain Bennett Not only is she a
champion of the church militant, but
she is breaker of mems hearts, as well.
She is, in fact, as irrepressible as Chlo-
rinda, and her personal charms are as
terrible to men as her spiritual powers
are formidable to the prince of dark
ness. There has been scene about
her at Spokane. One D. w. Hoskins
began to attend the Salvation Army
meetings. He straightway fell "desper-
ately in love-" as he says in letter to
the newspapers, with Captain Ben
nett" But, "while he talked of love,
she labored to induce him to come to
Jesus,'' He persisted in his suit till a
talk arose about it and the story got into
the newspapers. Then the Salvation
Army's defenders rushed to her support
in letters to the press, and he replied il
self-justifcation, saying that he ha6
lavished upon her all the wealth of hi
manly love and she had promised t.
marry him, but had proved false; anC

her custom to break mems hearts in this
way he had resolved to expose her. sIt
was not right" he thought, ''for woman
who proposed to bring souls to Christ
to have new lover in every town
she visited and leave SO many broken
hearts behind her" But, he adds, "I
shall never forget the many happy hours
spent at her home, or the long walks
we so often took, even though 1 know
she played with my heart for her own
amusement. 1t seems to us that our
legislatures have too long refused the
protection necessary to men like Mr..
Hoskins. These beauteous saints, who
scarcely hide the hills of snow, which
their frozen bosoms bear, and promise

A Gexser CIoc;s.

A California man is engaged in per-
fecting very ingenious device, which
he expects to become one of the chief at
fractions of his native town when it is
completed. 1t is a great clock, the fig
ures upon the face of which can be seen
at some distance, and is worked not by
means of the ordinary cog-wheels and
other appliances, but by geyser which
spouts near by. The geyser has been
studied carefully by this inventive
genius, and he has discovered that it
bubbles and rises every thirty-eight
seconds as regularly as clock-work
would require. Every time it rises, a
lever so arranged that it is reached by
the water is set in motion, and the
clock hands are by it pushed forward
just thirty-eight seconds. 1t will be
when completed q most interesting ma
chine, and will rejoice in the distinction
of being the only one of its kind in the
world

A CHANGE FOR A ROW
Report That Japan Has Seized the
PGIGW Islands.
THEY ARE CLAIMED BY SPAIN
The Affair May Lead to Grave In
ternational Difficulties as the ISL
ands are Valuable.
EY ARE CLAIMED BY SPAIN

MADRID, April 11.-Much excitement
is caused here by dispatch to the effect
that Japan has seized the Bellew ISL
ands. This group of islands is in the
North Pacific, and is claimed to belong
to Spain. They are .450 miles east of
the. PHILIPPINE islands, at the western ex-
tremity of the Caroline archipelago.
The islands are claimed by the Span
iards by right of discovery. The COVER
nor of the Philippine islands has sent a
cable dispatch asking for reinforcements,
whether with the object of attacking the
Japanese or not is not stated. The Pei
lew islands have about 10000 inhabi-
tants, and are very fertile. Their situa-
ton is between the Philippine islands
and the Caroline islands, both Spanish
colonies. This is regarded as a sign
that Japan intends to encroach on the
Spanish possessions in the Pacific. The
affair may lead to grave difficulties be-
tween the powers.

College Notes.

Corvallis, Or. April IL. 1898.
To the Editor OF THE CHRoNIcLE.J
The cold, rainy weather still con-
tinues.
On the evening of April Sd, the two
societies of the preparatory department
of the Agricultural college, gave a liter
ary contest for silver medal. The ex-
ercises were conducted by the president
of the societies. The judges were Gov
ernor Pennoyer, E. B. McElroy, super
intendent of public instruction, and
President Prince Campbell, of the State
Normal school. The total number of
points possible for either society to make
was 300. The Athenian society made
1888 points, while the MadIsonians
made ,755. When the decision of the
judges was made known, President Bloss
stepped forward, and, with suitable re-
marks, handed the shining medal to
Miss Addie Davenport, the president of
the vanquished Athenians, who placed
it upon the bosom of Madisonian presi-
dent, Miss Jennie Thornbury.
The Cireronians and Websterians are
preparing for contest to take place
sometime between now and June 18th.
The Ciceronians are not willing to let
the Websterians hold the gold medal in
peace.
A Young Woman's Christian Associa-
tion was organized at the college last
Friday.
On that same day, the Y. NJ. G. A.
sent delegates to Albany to attend the
fourth annual conference of district No.
8. This district includes all Western
Oregon, and contains thirteen associa-
tions. While the convention was in
session, the first Y. NJ. G. A building in
Oregon, the one at Albany was dedicated.
The building cost something over $1,000.
and contains good gymnasium, a read
ing room, parlors, bath rooms, etc.
Our school is losing comparatively
few students this spring.
Students taking the agricultural
course, will have to report at the farm
or orchard for work today.

eight years ago, and the ex-corporaI,
who was Abram Daily, has just died.
To all New Workers the figure, or at
least the name, of "Gen." Abram
Daily is familiar. The advancing years
gained for him the honorary title, and
upon national holidays the old man, at
tired in full uniform, would hoist the
flag over the old blockhouse in Central
park and also at the Battery. When
ever the flag was raised by the veteran
he was escorted by the Washington
continental guards, and the occasions
were always pleasing and something
apart from the busy life of the city.
Gen. Daily lived of late years with his
grandson in Brooklyn, where he died
On February Is, nearly ninety-eight
years of age. The United States gov
ernment allowed him pension of So per
per month.

Death OF Abram Daily, Survivor of the
War. of 1912.
It is long ago since the ''Treaty of
Peace and Amity between Great Brit
ain and the United States of America
was signed at Ghent on December "a.
1914. And not until February IL of the
following year did the ''great and joy
full news reach New York. Among
those who rejoiced, says Harper's
Weekly, was a young man of nineteen,
a corporal in the Eleventh New York;
heavy artillery. He had been on duty
at Fort Gansevoort and upon the
heights of Harlem, guarding McGow-
ans pass. After this he had been sta
toned at the bloclzhouse in Central
park. A few days before the news of
the treaty reached New York the
young man had been honorably dis
charged from service, and. following
the American example, he forthwith
went into business. That was-seventy-

E.caped Through Song.

Perhaps the most desperate negro
criminal Texas ever produced sang his
neck out OF the moose" said q native of
that State lately. About two years ago
Ben Clark shot down an old man in
Harris County for pure wantonness. It
was the last Of q long list Of mis-.
deeds. He was arrested, tried and SEN.
tenced 10 hang. He was placed In jail
at Houston, whore he distinguished
himself by his viciousness, nearly kill.
ing several Of his fellow prisoners with
q bottle. Everybody rejoiced that Ben
wal to hang, and . petition for clemency
could scarce have obtained . signature
In the city OF Houston. When he was
placed in the death cell . change came
over the spirit Of his dreams. Instead
OF oaths, obscenity and ribald songs.
with which he had long shocked the
neighborhood. he began to sing relig.
ious hymns. The brute had Q beautiful
baritone voice OF great compass, and
every night the sire cts leading to the
jail were black with people listening to
HIM. Well, sir, he SO wrought upon the
eympathies OF the people through his
music that q monster petition was sent
TO the Governor, signed by the best
people OF the city, praying that his sen.
tenoe be committed to life imprisop-
ment. No answer was received, and on
the morning OF the day fixed for the
execution there was serious talk OF an
attempted rescue. just as he was
about to mount the scaffold q document
arrived from the Governor committing
hie sentence to lifo imprisonment.

The human body is constantly UNDER
going tissue change. WOrn-out parti-
cles are cast aside and eliminated from
the system, while the new are ever be-
ing formed, from the inception Of life to
Its close. Water has the power of in
creasin2 these tissue changes, which
multiply the waste products, but at the
same time they are renewed by its
agency, Civ ng rise to increased appe-
tite, which in turn provides fresh nutrl.
ment.
Persons but little accustomed to
drink water are liable to have the waste
products formed faster than they are
removed. Any obstruction to the free
n rking OF natural laws at once pro-
duces disease, which. II once firmly
seated, requires both time and money to
cure.
People accustomed to rise in the
morning weak and languid will find the
cause In the imperfect secretion OF
wastes. which many times may be
remedied by drinking q full tumbler Of
water before retiring. This very ma
teriaily assists In the process during the
night, and leaves tissue fresh and
strong. and ready for the active work Of
the day.
Hot water is one Of the best remedial
agents. A hot tath on going to bed,
sven in the hot nights Of summer, Is a
better reliever Of insomnia than many
drugs. Inflated parts will subside un-
der the continued poulticing Of real hot
water. Very hot water, as we all know.
is Q prompt checker OF bleeding. and be-
sides, II 1t is clean, as it should be. II
aids in sterilizing our wounds. A riot
