Back From tho Mines.
Condor Globe,

Herbert Balstead and E. E. Smith have
returned home from their trip to Juction
bar, on the John Day, whittier they had
gone to look after the mining claims in
which they are interested, and also to test
the merits of machine for saving fine gold.
Although the machine had been represented
to do its work well, the experiments made
with it by these gentlemen proved other
wise. Messrs. Halstead and Smith claim
that there is an abundance of fine gold on
their claims, and in fact all along the river
for seventy-fve miles above them, upon
all Of which filings have been made, and
that if some process could be found by
which the minute particles of the precious
metal could be saved, these properties
would prove bonanzas for their owners. In
Idaho at the present time machines for this
purpose are in use which, it is claimed, are
doing excellent work. Many miners from
abroad have purposely visited the state
and witnessed the work of the machines,
and in almost every instance have approved
the claims made for them. Such being the
facts, it might be to the advantage of our
townsmen to look into the matter anden-
deavor to procure similar contrivances for
their mines.

A Cheeky Customer.


A night or two ago at Umatllla, w. a..
Royd, of Means s. Boyd, was in the firms
store, when an unknown customer entered
and proceeded 10 make purchases 10 the
extent OF five or six dollars. ln a matter
of-fact way the stranger selected pair of
shoes, shirt and some socks, and Mr..
Boyd wrapped them In q convenient bum
die, feeling CHEEKY over the fact that he
could do some business, in spite of our
country IS financial woes. The man took
the bundle and moved toward the door.
"I'll settle for these later, partner" he re-
marked with show of confidence un-
warranted by his appearance and the fact
that he had no letter of introduction or
credit to Mr.. Boyd. The store-keeper
very naturally objected to this part of the
transaction, but before he could do any
thing the fellow had plungei into the
darkness of very dark night. Mr. Boyd
got out of the door and gave chase as soon
as possible; but the ardor of his pursuit
was checked by the sound of two pistol
shots, evidently intended for him and
fired by the disappearing stranger. 1t is
hardly cause for wonder that Mr.. Boyd
failed to capture the man with the bundle
and collect for his sale. Watch was kept
for the fellow at Pendleton and elsewhere,
but his whereabouts are yet unknown.

nominated TO the Chinese mission by

The Day In the senate.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14-Thc session of
the senate today opened with personal
explanation from Morgan of Alabama.
He denied having ever lntimated he
would vote agains. unconditional repeal,
but said he would vote against condi-
tional repeal as proposed in the Voorhees,
substitute, which he characterized as
"Very ridiculous, very injurious and very
cowardly." Various important amend
ments to the rules were then offered, and
they went over until Monday. They pros
pose to forbid reading by senators of
speeches, either written or printed: to
permit the counting of senators present
and not voting; to disqualIfy senators
interested in national banks, or national
bank stocks, from voting on any bill sf-
fecting coinage or currency; to provide
for the closing of debate on any bill or
RESOLUTION by the same arrangement as
now in operation In the house of repre-
sentatives. This was followed by taking
up the resolution offered by Dolph yes
terday, referring to the committee on
privileges and elections the question as
to whether absent senators may be COM
pelied to attend.
THE REPEAL BILL.
After this was sgreed to. the silver
purchase repeal bill was taken up, and
the vice. president set about dlsentang-
ling the parliamentary twist into which
besenate got itself last night over the
question whether Dubois should be ex-
cused from voting on the question allow
ing PETER to have document read at
the clerks desk. By vote of 80 to 81

AGRICULTURAL FAIR.
From SATURDAYS Daily.

The events of the fair ground this morn
ing were the stock parade and the bull
fight at IL o'clock. The stock on exhibit
was marshaled on the race track in front of
the judges stand. 1t was most creditable
display, and horses were exhibited that
would have won the blue ribbon in any
fair. Prominent among them were the two
Percheron stations of Robert Kelly, of
Kingsley, and Means, Callaghan's and
Doyle's Clydesdales were the subject of
many admiring remarks. George Snipe's
jackass ambled quietly along, its great cars
adding somewhat of interest to the scene,
while bringing up the rear we're lot of
wild geese, that had been domesticated,
one proudly showing blue ribbon fastened
to its wing. The cattle also formed a very
pretty part of the parade, though not
nearly so many in numbers as the horses.
Sharps Poland Galloway bulls and others,
showed what breeding could be found In
Wasco county.
Immediately after the parade closed, the
track was cleared, and forth on the open
space fronting the judges stand the bovine
gladiators were led, each painting for the
conflict They were without the usual means
warfare, being polled. The contests were
Oregon King, owned by E. F. Sharp and
Pound Champion, belonging to E. L. Boyn-
ton. Time was called at 1l:40, and after
little preliminary skirmishing, they volun-
tarily suspended hostilities until the goose
exhibit, which was returning from the par
ade could waddle by. Then they renewed
the conflict, third bull, having some white
in his tail, taking a part in the fuss. The
fight was spirited, but short, Oregon
King winning the round in 80 seconds,
Pound Champion fled, and the white tailed
bull made for his trainer. The second
round was won by Oregon King in about 8
seconds. The third and fourth rounds
were tame and uninteresting, but when the
fifth commenced the fun began. This was
the most exciting of all, and the two con-
testants, Oregon King and Pound Cham
pion, pushed and forced each other about
from side to side of the track. The result
was uncertain. Betting was about even,
and all watched with bated breath, when as
the contest was at its height, Geo. Snipes
ram, which was matched to fight the win
ming bull becoming impatient and longing
to have a finger in the pie, came charging
into the fray and with lowered head took
most active part. A few well directed
bunts and both bulls beat rapid retreat,
hotly pursued by the victorious ram, which
was anxious to end the cortest by COM
plete knockout. The Judge gave the fight
