Cowboy Horse Jewelry.

All over North America for many
years Cheyenne saddles have been
famous, and every equestrian, outside
of our cavalry and of the Northwest
mounted police of Canada, has either
had his horse tricked out with Chey-
enne leather or has wished he had.
The fancy work on saddles, holsters
and stirrups hoods that once made
Mexican saddles famous and ex-
pensive long ago was copied by Chey
enne makers, who kept up the fame
and beauty Of American horse trap
pings, but made them so cheap as to
be within the means of most horse
men. In the old days when Western
cattle ranged all over the plains and
the cowboy was in his glory, that
queer citizen would rather have a
Cheyenne saddle than a best girl. In
fact, to be without Cheyenne saddle
and firstclass revolver was to be no
better than the sheepherders OF that
era.
When reporter of the New York
Sun found himself in Cheyenne the
other day, the first places he looked
for were the saddle-maker's shops.
There were the gloriously heavy hand
stamped saddles; there were the
huge, cumbrous tapaderos; there were
the lariats or ropes, the magnificent
bits that looked like Moorish art out
done, and there were the "mule
skInners" and the fanciful spurs, and,
in short, the windows formed mu-
scum of things that cowboy would
have pawned his soul to own. The
metal work was all such as cavalry
man once described it, 'the most ele-
CANT horse jewelry in creation
III the store went the reporter and
at his work went he. He found that
the old trade that covered America
was dead and gone, or rather had
languished SO long and 50 much that
the period of mourning for it had
gone by. Englishmen and Germans
now buy the fanciest and the best
trappings to send to their homes.

which would be used to maintain the
institution. The Odd Fellows of this

TO create such an impression. The
matter will, no doubt, be settled to
the entire satisfaction of everyone
concerned at the grand lodge meet.

An Amusing story.

An amusing story of how con
firmed old bachelor, who combined
with his bachelorhood the qualities of
bibliomaniac, came finally to marry
is told BY an English newspaper. 1t
appears that the lonely old bookworm
employed an old servant to take care
of his rooms. Upon her fell the task
of arranging and busting the library,
and she soon came to be smitten with
q taste for reading. She began to
spend all her earnings in buying
books, and, strange to say, they were
old books that she bought and read.
One afternoon she came in with par.
Gel of volumes picked up from the
bookstalls. Out of curiosity the mas

treasures, and we can well imagine
the more or less supercilious smile
that played upon his countenance as
he thought Of the humorous phase Of

Suddenly his face lighted it.

A FURTHER STATEMENT.
Mate Carter, of the Signal, Speaks of
Captain Hayden's Actions.

Yesterdays Oregonian contains a cou-
tradiction Of the statement that Cap
tain Hayden, recently of the steamer
Signal, was short in his accounts when
he left that vessel. The contradiction
is made by Captain Rathbone, the
Portland agent of the steamer;Cap-
tain Hayden, and Mr.. Waterhouse, the
Tacoma manager of the company. An
additional statement was yesterday re-
ceived from First Mate Carter, of the
sci was chartered by Captain Hayden
from A. NJ. Simpson for the three
months ending November 3Oth, at $1,000
per month. During that time Hayden
contracted debts in several ports He
paid $4,000 for the first two months of
his lease, and left the vessel at Van,
couver on December I'd, the date she
sailedf rom that port, without having
paid the $1,000 due for the month of
November. He took with him $3.50
which had been collected by the purser
ma, where he met Watehouse, who is
relative, and who had a short time be-
fore been discharged from the Pacific
Navigation Company Captain Bende-
Hayden represented to him that the
terest, and took charge of the vessel.
Hayden representing to him that the
crew could be paid off for the month
of November out of sum of $17OO
coming to the vessel in Portland. The
wages of the hands amounted to $11O0,
but when Captain Bendegard reached
Astoria he learned that the sum due
in Portland was less than $500.
Hayden" the mate continued, "left
Simpson minus his rent for the steam
er for November, the crew were un-
paid, and Simpson must either pay the
debts of the steamer or she will in all
likelihood be libeled in all the ports
where Hayden contracted debts.

ToDAY's BATTLE.


The following communication has
been received, and conveys an impartial
idea of Mayor Crosby's relations with
the republican and "citizens' parties:
Astoria, Dec. 12, 1S9S
Editor Astorian:--
Dear Sir: 1t seems to me that a
good deal Of misconception has been
very carefully fostered in the minds OF
the public in regard to the issues of
the campaign on which our citizens are
today asked to vote, and ask the ia
vor Of little Of your space to try in
my humble way to explain few
points that at present appear OBJ
scured
DR.. ALI Kinney has entered the are
ma against Mayor Crosby, and It would
till become me, who know his good
parts to speak slightingly Of him. DR..
Kinney is liked and respected by cv-
erybody in this city. and counts his
friends by the hundred. But what OF
his opponent? Mr.. Crosby has served
the people for two years of long ard
arduous labor, with no reward save
the knowledge of duty well done. He
Is a business man, known for his in
tegrity and ability from one end of the
state to the other. His opponents dare
lot breathe a word against his public
or private career. All their charge is
that he committed the horrible crime
of going back like a man to his party.
when he had to confess that a purihca-
tion had taken place in its conduct and
it's leaders. A week before the nominu-
tions were made, these same citizens
begged him to take their nomination.
Was he good enough for them at that
time? or course he was. Has he
become all the wretches in the calen-
dar in the space Of three weeks? OF
course he has. These clumsy fools are
trying to make sensible men believe
that his record must count for nothing,
his honor must count for nothing, his
many years of straight business deal
ing and integrity must all be lost sight
Of today. And why? Because he dared
to refuse their nomination few weeks
ago. Had he accepted he would have
been In turn all the saints in the cal
cndar; having refused the Immortal
honor, "Balmaceda," and a. turn
coat" But voters are not fools. as
these cowardly traducers will lind to
their cost today.
And even II there were any argument
in this kind Of lpputatlon, which there
is not, don't forget that the Citizens
were ready to go down on their knees
three weeks ago to persuade this "Bal-
naceda" to head their ticket
Don't forget it. Go to the polls early
and vote for the reelection OF the best
executive officer that was ever ac-
corded municipal honors in Astoria
Magnus C. Crosby. Yours, etc.
