and then there are notions that people
get into their heads. Some of these
latter ones are very queer things !;
for instance, we used to have a no.

please everybody; queer that we
should think so, wasn't it /? Well,
we don't think so now, in fact, we

dition of the company. The showing
made was very unpromising one to the
stockholders, but the committee decided to
engage lawyer in Minneapolis to protect
the interests of the eastern investors, and
they will wait further developments. A
special correspondent writing from Mime

special guaranty fund of $4,000, and
surplus of S125, 200, it'now appears doubt

The case of the Olcott Falls company
against Hazen of st. Johnsbury, which
has been pending in the Windsor county
court for several years, is being brought to
close by the final arguments at White

conveyance failed to include about 1000
acres of land bargained for, and seeks to
recover $4,000 damages. The defendant

land intended by both parties.

you will think we are getting too

that if some notional people would
take notion to buy out what few

we would have a chance to put a

William NJ. Evarts, the famous New
York lawyer, who has just celebrated
his golden wedding anniversary at
his Windsor farm, realized at one time
an income of over $4,000 yearly from his
practice. He was also the owner of the
place at Windsor, on which gang of men
was constantly employed. On one occasion
lady, hearing of Mr. Evarts's large income
for his profession, exclaimed in the pres
ence of the attorneys wife, 'How rich
they must be !" to which the latter replied
in quiet manner, "You forget, madam, that
we own farm" 1t is also related of the
distinguished lawyer that while entertain

evening, he produced several bottles of
champagne and quantity of milk. Turn

blance of humor "Gentlemen, here is
some milk from my farm, and here is some

years ago George Morris was shot and
killed at Wholervllle, this county, by his
friend, Robert Hudson. The slayer fled

son quarreled while on their way home

Hudson with bottle. The two appeared
later at Morris house, when Hudson's
injury was attended to by Morris. Hud

carrying an unloaded gun, and saying
that he didn't care to load it as he didn't

the killing.

The Infanta Eulalie has no doubt
tired of American toadyism, and her
actions which are construed as "snubs"
to the aristocratic element may have
been intended. She is educated and
intelligent, and fully realizes that the
adulation with which she has been re-
ceived in this country was not honest,
but only superficial snobbery. The
self-constltuted supper crust' at the
worlds fair were no doubt Mortified
when she paid little attention to their
grand banquet and concert, and pre-
ferred lunch of sausage, cheese and
beer and the music in the German vii
lage. She is but flesh and blood, like
other girls, and undoubtedly delights
IN acting and eating, occasionally,
without the restraint of courtly con-
ventionalitles.

of assignment last evening. Walter T.

tionel bank OF this city is named as as
signee. The inventory shows the total
assets, including the plant appraised at
$4,000, to be 500, 500, and the liabilities
$37, ,572. As soon as the assignee's bond
is approved, the factory will be reopened,
and all material now on hand made up
into finished work. Several reasons are
assigned for the recent turn in affairs,
the principle one being the unusual late
ness of the season, which has caused
work to move fl very slowly, and as a
result some $4,000 worth of finished
jobs have accumulated in their storeroom
on which there are no returns.

Killed Herself and Child.

SPOKANE. June 13-A murder and sui
eide. a double poisoning, for which no
motive can be discovered, is exciting the
farmers on Paradise prairie, lying be-
tween Spangle and Marshall, IA miles
south of Spokane. Mrs. James Klrken-
dali, a young German woman, the wife
of an industrious young farmer, and her
little daughter, are the victims of the
tragedy. Mr.. Kirkendail left home yes
terday afternoon to attend school board
meeting. On mis- return, about O'Clock,
he found his Oldest child, boy about 6
years old, alone in the house, sobbing
with fright. "Mamma has fallen down.
and hurt herself" was the only explain
alton the little fellow could give. Guided
by the child. Mr.. Kirkendall fastened
across the garden and through the woods
until about quarter of mile from the
house. Here he found his wife lying
face downward upon the ground, her
head resting upon her hands. She was
dead. Near her lay their 4-year- old
daughter, unconscious and in spasms.
Selling the child, Kirkendall rushed to
the house and tried to revive her, but in
few minutes she, too, was dead.

From the returns received thus far
the indications are that the army bill
has been defeated in Germany,and the
reichstag which is to be convened will
not do the bidding of the emperor. If
this happens Emperor William will
exercise his autocratic power and send
the members home and order another
election, and this in country
that claims constitution. 1t
would save time and expense to the
empire for the Kaiser to give forth his
decree in regard to the amount he
wants for his army, and do away
with the parliament entirely. His ac-
tlons will result 10 the same thing,
and there is no use in convening the
reichstag when the members are forced
to obey the dictates of one man. Per-
sonal liberty does not exist and the
elective franchise Is farce in a coun-,
try where these conditions prevail.

The Democrats of The Dalles are
determined to draw the party lines
closely, even in city affairs, and not
content with nominating a ticket at
the coming municipal election, have
appointed committee of three to keep
guard over the faithful in political
matters. We do not believe this ac-
tion will be endorsed by the citizens,
and are firmly convinced that even in
Democratic lines it will not receive
universal support. Heretofore it has
been customary for politics to receive
no consideration in our city elections,
and we think there will be no excep-
tion to the rule next Monday. The
names placed before the people last
Saturday are good citizens, but asking
electors to support them by reason of
their political predictions is to court
defeat. Next Wednesday evening a
citizens meeting has been called, and
this will no doubt nominate the SUE
cessful candidates for city officials.
