bureau. On awaking this morning it was
gone, and the window open where the
| thieves had made an entrance. The denom-
nations were Union Pacific check for $50,
$40 greenback and smaller coin. The two
story brick is by the side of one-story
frame building, and the roof reaches within
two feet of the ledge Of the window. Other
buildings adioin the frame one. and the
roofs form a means for robbers to reach the
room from the alley. Footprints on the
shingles seen by the officers after the lar

evidence that this was the way in which
the burglar made his entrance into the
window.

A Pleasant Dream.

Mr.. S. G. Thurman, by reason of vivid
imagination and reading the stories tf dis
covered buried treasures, thought he had
struck 1t rich yesterday. Deep In the sand
near his fish wheel, he found a sack, with
contents that were heavy to lift Visions
Of Capt. KID, and show he sailed and
sailed" gathering his store of Ill. gotten
wealth and then burying 1t from the curious
and CO. etous fitted through his mind. He
would build a paiatial residence on his river
farm, the hJors should be composed of the
most costly mosaIcs, the ceilings frescoed Nv
the best artists, beautiful avenues should be
aid out on his ample grounds, paintings
from the old masters should ornament the
walls, statuary chiseled by rem wned sculp-
tors should be placed at convenient dis
tances along shaded walks. and the perfume
of flowers and the limpid liquid squirting
from marble fountains should add attrac-
tions to the scene. But the dream did not
last long, and had very delusive ending
Opening the sack he founh it to contain a
dead dog and heavy rock, and palaces,
gardens, fountains and statuary faded away
,nto forbidd,ng reality like mists before the
sun. Sam was as rich as Cresus for five
minutes. and then became devoid OF
wealth in as short time.

down town during the afternoon and early
evening, and on his coming home was
greeted by the unsupported company gath

o. D. Taylor Horse Whipped.


Considerable excitement prevailed on
Washington street near the noon hour to-
day, and the blocks in the immediate vicn-
ity of o. D. Taylor's office were throDged
by an anxious throng. Our reporter was
not present, tut learn from eye witnesses
that Miss Aqua, armed with a raw hide
whip, paraded ID front of Rev. o. d Tay-
lor's real estate office, and threatened that
gentleman with whipping if he ap-
peared on the outside He no doubt con-
sidered discretion the better part of valor"
and locked himself on the inside She
maintained her position on the sidewalk, so
we are informed, for nearly an hour and
half. and during that time the gentleman
kept himself barricaded behind locked
door. From information cleaned from par
ties. who claimed to be acquainted with the
circumstances, the grievance seems to be
that Miss Holcomb-a member OF the fac
uity of Wasco independent academy-in
settlement tor services last year, had been
paid by Rev. o. D Taylor. the president OF
the board of directors. 500 less than the
amount he promised to pay her. Another
version of the matter, and we presume the
correct one is. that Rev o. D Taylor prom
ised Miss Holcomb 500 individually, more
y
and this he has refused to pay. Her per-
sonal friend and companion is Miss Aqua,
sEirited young lady, who says that she
will not tamely submit to see Miss Holcomb
cheated out of 500 of her salary. aud that
she will whip o d. Taylor if 1t is the last
act of her life. The sympathy of tine crowd
was with the young lady. and if she had
horsewhIpped the reverend gentleman the
fine would have been subscribed wlthio five
minutes. Miss Holcomb Is a scholarly and
highly accomplished young lady, and l.
held in high estimation in this community
Miss Aqua is very much attached to her.
and her friendship amounts to alteration.
About 2 o'clock this afternoon the young
lady, Miss Aqua, horsewhipped Taylor from
his office to the Methodist church, when
the marshal arrived and she was arrested
The affair was witnessed by large crowd
of persons, who followed the parties from
the first ace where they met to the point
where the marshal interfered. There were
frequent cheers from the throng of persons,
and 1t is stated that on more than one occa-
sion the reverend gentleman was held
while Miss Aqua belabored him with the
rawhide.

From Fridav,s Daily.

A man by the name of Peter Strom was
arrested while going on board a freight
train at the depot, this morning, on a war
rant of arrest issued at Cascade Locks
The crime for which he was arrested was
rape, committed at Wyeth Wednesday
evening on Mrs. Harpam, an old lady aged
81 years. Strom is Swede, and was tramp
ing through the country. He stopped at
Cascade Locks and approaching house
inquired for something to eat. On being
informed that there was little in the house
he told the woman to be in hurry aud
furnish him meal. The woman becoming
alarmed did the best she could under
the circumstances to give him something to
eat. Fo lowing the railroad track he came
to Wyeth. and coming to the residence Of
Mrs. Harpam after choking and overpow-
ering her crimlnally assaulted her. Her
SONS were absent at the time. and the only
person IN the house was 9 year. old boy.
He immediately left that vicinity, and this
morning was getting on hoard a freight
train when he was oyerhauled by officer
Gibbons and lodged in the county jall. A

The correspondents of this bureau, who
| represent every election precinct in the

two weeks ago were from ten to fifteen
bushels per acre, have improved from 25
to 40 per cent Sherman and Umatilla
counties will have as good crop as they
had in 1891, and the total product will be
more. In Union county the present con-
ditions are excellent \Wallowa, Baker
and the interior counties have greatly
improved prospects. One wheat grower
in Umatilla county, who has 5000 acres
of growing wheat, reports that he will
have at least 120, 900 bushels. Some fall
sown wheat is being cut this week; but
not until next week will harvest become
general in the Columbia river valley.
Haying continues and very fair crops are
secured. The fruit prospects remain as
reported last week. The wool continues
to be stored in the warehouses some len
or more million pounds now being stored
awaiting for market.

per acre. Spring wheat decreased acre
age and decreased yield. Total product

A Mistaken Celestial.
East Oregonian.

Hue Nun is celestial who became ex-
cited Monday night, about 10 O'Clock, and
took SIX shots with pistol from the door
of his wash-house en- Cottonwood street
at the form of man setting in front ol
the Depot stable. Few Cinnamon could
hit an elephant at six PAGES, and Nun Is
no exception. so the human target, whose
name is J. W. Clore, escaped any damage
except the natural insult to his feelings.
Somebody had been throwing rocks at
Nuns wash-house, and ran away. Nun
mistook Mr.. Clore for the offender, and
turned loose at him without due investi
cation. The Chinaman was arrested and
jailed. HIS examination has been post
pone. IN Justice Rosenberg's court until
Wednesday afternoon at 2 O'Clock.

Organization of Thieves.

The encounter with Ed. Henderson has
brought into prominence the subject OF
horse and cattle-stealing in this vicinity
during some time past, and there can be
no doubt that there is an organized band
OF thieves. whose operations cover the
Pacific slope from the British line 10
California. For years cattle and horses
have been missed in this county, and
there is not much doubt that these have
been driven to other markets and sold.
