An Oregon Woman.

Concerning the recent difficulty between
Mrs. Sadie Toole and L. o. Hiatt, the Cor
Wallis Times says: "Five miles across the
river in Linn county, live Mr.. and Mrs
Toole. Mr.. Toole criticized two young
men enroute to a neighborhood dance the
other night for leaving fence down, and
by discretion escaped the fight that one of
them proposed. The boys went on to the
dance where shortly after Mrs. Toole ap-
peared bandishing revolver in way that
sent the cold chills creeping up the fiddler's
back. where is the man that wanted to
fight my husband?' she demanded. There
was nobody there that wanted be shot,
so silence prevailed, until Mrs. Toole
turned to the hired man and ordered the
buggy brought to the door. Into it she
climbed, and when the man suggested that
he would bring the horse, the revolver
again appeared and he was instructed to
act as horse himself. The subtle influence
of the weapon prevailed, and seizing the
shafts he trotted off with his load There
was neither bride, harness or reins to guide
him, but he reached the Toole mansion Just

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21-Wben the
Democrauc steering committee of the
senate had completed its slttlngs today,
81 Democratic senators had pledged
themselves to support the committees
compromise repeal measure, and the
managers felt assured of sufficient mum.
ber to bring the total up 10 IL, leaving
only two more necessary to insure the
passage OF the bill by Democratic votes.
The senators holding out against the bill
are said to be Mills and Villas. of the re
peal bill side, aud Irby, of the silver side,
Some 81 the repeal men have not as yet
actually attached their names to the
pledge. but the committee expects to se.'
cure the names Of all Democratic sem
ators, and will rush the bill through as
party measure and without calling upon
the Republicans for helP. Most of the
Republicans hope the Democrats will
succeed in this, for the bill is one which
does nc, commend itself To either the re-
peal or silver faction IN the Republican
ranks The repeal men are pleased only
with the clause limiting silver purchases
to year, while the silver men find in
this 8 reason of hope ter further extern
zion Of silver purchases, and think it bet.
ter than an unconditional repeal.

fishers manage to work off quite an edition
and scatter it broadcast in the commun-
ity; but the copies are rarely read and are
used for every conceivable purpose, except
to furnish food for thought. Such news
papers must be classed with advertising
flakes" for if they had the circulation
they claim, it would be known without her
aiding the fact in their columns. An hon

plaeard on every street corner, advertis-

speak for themselves. Only the shysters
follow the methods of the charlatan and

that they are not patronized sufficiently,

An Explanation.

THE DALLES, Oct. %, 1893.
Editor TINES -MoUNTAINEER:
Mr.. Chas Allison insinuates in last
Thursdays edition of the Chronicle, that
we were not square" in Cur dealings with
him, and, that we were endeavoring to
''freeze him out of the Ice business"
While 1t IL not our desire to nauseate the
public by dealing in personalities, yet we
feel justified in replying to Mr.. Allison's re-
fections, and proving to the public, that, in
our transactions with him, we acted squarely
and honestly, and, that furthermore, Mr..
Allison's sensitiveness was caused by our
taking, to secure ourselves, the ordinary
precautions which every business man takes.
Mr.. Allison came to us and stated, that
he wished to engage in the sheep business;
that he would like 10 sell his ice house and
plant to US; as an inducemeHt to purchase
the same, offered to Surrender to US his Ice
contract with r. j.. Holmes. whose ice Mr..
Allison has been selling. We agreed to
buy his plant, provided satisfactory arrange
meuts be maie with Mr.. Holmes. While
these arrangements were being made Mr..
Allison gave MIR. Holmes TO understand that
he wished to leave The Dalles Immediately.
Taking Mr.. Allison at his word, Mr..
Holmes requested us by letter to take
charge of the ice business, and also sent his
agent, Mr.. John Bickus, to The Dalles, to
make temporary arrangemsnts for our TAX
ing the business eff MIR. Allison's hands, till
the arrival of Mr.. Holmes, when permanent
arrangements AID contract could be made.
Matters bad progressed so far satisfactorily
to both parties, AMI ". felt justified in ad-
yertising that we had taken Mr.. AllisOn's
business. Al this period OF the trausac-
tion Mr.. Allison began TO imagine that he
was bsing depo.el. AM gre@ very impa-
tien., and demanded that we should imme-
dia.ely cansumm.te the purchase of MS ice
plant This we refused to do till Mr..
Holmes ARRIVAL when satisfactory contract
might b, male Oar refusal to assent to
Mr. AIlison's ds.naads IN ide him very au-
ery, whence resulted his ialse insinus;loas
in the Chronicle.
From this. ..e trus', il may b. clearly
seea. that Mr. Abs ms umbrage arose from
or rein .tiuce TO b'ndly accede to every
proposal on bis part, and bscome entangied |
in doubtful business transaction, the ou.- |
cCme of which it would be rl to forecast. |
We have in our possession the letter of Mr.. |

Demands of the Parnellites.

LONDON, Oct. 21-Tbe ParDellites, un-
der the leadership of John and William
Redmond, are preparing to make trouble
again for Mr.. Gladstone. Unless the
government will assent to the introduce
ton of bill ggiving financial aid and
compensation to evicted tenants in Ire,
land they will withdraw their support
from the cabinet. Several antI-Parnell-
ties, moreover, have agreed to follow the
same line of action. John Morley, IRISH
secretary, wishes TO grant the Paruelilte
demands, but majority OF the ministers
insist upon the necessity for fulfilling the
pledges given to the liberals that the
whole session next winter shall be de-
voted TO the discussion of English meas
urea. The ultimate decision of the gov
erumen. will depend upon the strength
of the Irish detection. The Parnellites
will get their eviction bill if Mr.. Glad
stones majority seems likely to be re-
duced to the danger point and the fate
of the government becomes involved.
The antI-Parnelites have arranged to
hold conference with the aE;i-Parnell-
ites early in November with view to-
ward restoring bermoDy between The
factions.

an incendiary. The hotel, Mrs. Strains

RECIPES.

Shredded Plneapple-Select a rioe,
| JUICY pineapple, remove every bit of the
skin and ali the "eyes." Tnen lay tie
fruit on platter, hold it firmly with the
left hand, and with silver fork tear off
the pineapple in small pieces, leaving the
core whole. Put the shredded fruit IN
serving dish, sprinkle generously with
fine granulated sugar, cover, and let il
stand in the Ice chest an hour, If possible,
before serving This method of prepar-
ing 1t draws out the juice and flavor bet
ter than sliclng. and makes the fruit seem
much more tender.
Broiled Bacon Remove the skin and
dark outsides edges and cut the bacon
in very thin slices: lay them on wire
broiler close together and place the latter
in a dripping pan, then put pan and broi-
Ter together on the upper CRATE of hot
oven. Watch the bacon carefully, as it
will soon need turning and will generally
be broiled sufficiently in four or five min
utes. This is a much easier method than
to fry it in pan on top of the range, and
there is no smoke or burned fat as re-
suit. If liked dry the bacon may be
drained on paper, but l generally ind
that it drips quite sufficiently into the
pan. Do not forget that the handles of
the broiler will be extremely hot after
being shut up in the oven.
Eggs in Brown Butter-Break six eggs,
one at time, into saucer, and slip
them off into hot frying-p pan containing
butter and lard mixed in equal proper
tons. Cook about three minutes, re-
move to a hot platter and pour over
them the following sauce. Heat to-
gether one tablespoonful of tarragon
vinegar, one tablespoonful of chill sauce,
one tablespoonful of lemon juice and one
saltspoonfill of salt. Brown two heap
ing tablespoonfuls of butter and strain
into the hot liquid. If the above season
ings are not at hand, brown the butter,
and one tablespoonful of cider vinegar
and strain over the eggs.
Scrambled Eggs and Asparagus-Pu
one tablespoonful of butter in the upper
part of double boiler, and when mel
ted add four eggs slightly beaten and
mixed with half teaspoon of salt, half a
teaspoon of pepper, and third of cup
of milk. Stir the mixture gently until it
begins to thicken, then add one cup of
cooked asparagus, cut in small pieces,
and serve on toast as soon as the egg is
firm and the asparagus hot. This is a
nice way to use small amount of aspar-
agus left from the previous days dinner,
only care should be taken to use only
tender stalks or tips.
