Store Robbed.

Last night there were two attempts at
robbery, one of which was successful, and
these happened before IL o'clock. About
10 the glass in the front door of Mr.. s.
XleIn's store was broken out; but the
noise attracted the attention of some per-
sons In the vicinity, and the thief made
a rapid flight. Mr.. Klein was informed
of the attempt on his building, and nailed
up the door, after carefully secreting all
valuables. Seon afterwards the large
glass window in the hardware establish
ment of Messrs. Mays 6 Grove, on Fed
eral street, was broken and five revolvsrs,
hanging on little pedestal, stolen. The
building was not entered, and 1t is pre-
sumed the parties reached in their arms,
took the revolyers and departed. Many
believe the attempt at Mr.. Klein's was
simply ruse to attract the attention of
the policemen until the object was ac-
compllshed in Mays & Groves building.
The loss will be about $50; but if the
robbers had time to enter the store they
could have secured much more valuable
booty. There seems to be q general opin-
ion that the parties who have been guilty
of the nefarlous acts during the last few
days are persons who are acquainted with
the city, and know where to operate. In
few days there may be astonishing de-
| yelopments.

The Midwinter Fair of Oregon.

In connection with the midwinter fair in
San Francisco it is proposed to erect suit
able building on the grounds to be known
as the Oregon building. The exhibits of
the state are to be made in this building;
and, by a special order made by the board
of managers of the midwInter fair. all ex-
hibits made in the "Oregon Building"
shall be entitled to all rights of competition
for premiums, the same exactly as in the
General Building" of the fair. The man
agsment of this exhibit will be virtually
under charge of the same gentlemen who SO
ably represented our state at the Worlds
Columbian exposition. and the successful
results of their labor in Chicago are we'll
known. In order to raise funds for this
work the committee have incorporated un-
der a capital stock of $40. .000 at 81 per
share. The fair commissioners have saved
twenty thousand dollars of the amount ap-
propriated by the legislature for the
Worlds Columbian exposition, and it Is
proposed to pay from this fund. to all pur-
chasers OF stock, the amount OF STOCK tax en-
by them. Il must be borne IN mind, how
ever, that this money is the property of the
state of Oregon, and suitable legislative
action must be taken before the money can
be so used.
Hon. NJ. A. Moody has been appointed
the member of the finance committee for
The DaIles, and ne desires to see our citi-
zen. purchase as many shares of stock a,
possible. Our people will be called upon to
ascertain what they are willing to subscribe,
and We hope to see generous response, as
the object Is a very worthy one. The
money will be simply loaned TO the state fol
the purpose of making the exhibit, which
will undoubtedly be good advertisement
of the resources Of all portions of the state.

was to leave for San Francisco one week

On the morning in question he came to

work, but in few minutes he resumed
he resumed his hat and coat and walked
out without remarking his intentions.
Nothing peculiar was anticipated until
shortly before 10 o'clock when, as he did

Philosonh1oal Pendlatou.

The chief city of Umatllla county felt
very confident in being the choice for the
location of the branch asylum. and the fol.

Senator W. F. Matlock-I am much sur

islands my surprise would not have been
greater. However, it was fair fight and
Union won. Pendleton and other towns
have no cause for complaint.
Then Senator James n. Raley was found
in his Office and several gentlemen had hap
pened to drop in to talk about the weather.
But the weather was soon forgotten, and
the telegram was looked at with wonder
and amazement. Had message come an
nouneing war with England, the company
would not have been more surprised. Sen.
ater RaIey said as follows:
Senator j. q. Raley-You may say that
l IS much expected that asylum to go to
Echo. Uutil you showed me the telegram
I was confident that Pendleton would be se-
lected. In fact while there was room tor
doubt, yet had made up my mind to that.
Bot there is no more reason tor Pendleten

situation. Tney united ia ring that PEN

Turkey.

The address of Hon. D. P. Thompson
at the court house last evening on the
subject of Turkey attracted good audi
: ence, and the discourse was listened to
with the closest attention. He gave his
personal experiences In the Ottoman en-
pire, aud being brought in close relation
ship with the high dignItaries of the
realm, was enabled to talk iutelligently
on matters pertaining 10 the government
OF that country. When he first went to
Constantinople he was received with all
the pomp and ceremonies of monarchlcal
courts; but afterwards, when he met the
sultan. he was as affable as any gentle
man could be. They conversed freely
on all subjects in relation TO the people
| and the religion; but when the condition
| of the women was breacbed there was
shrug of the shoulders as much IS If the
| sultan had SAID, this is not debatable. MIR.
Thompson spoke of the Turkish schools,
the plan of education, and the small ad-
vancement they made towards western
civilization. There are good schools III
ConstantInople; but these are under con
troll of Christian foreigners. At the time |
Of the massacre OF the missionaries and |
teachers by Moslems in Turkey, he was
empowered by the secretary of state to
make al immediate demand for repara-
tion from that government. He presented
his instructions, and there was an lmme-
diate compliance on the part of the sui
tan. MIR. Thompson received decorations
of similar import to those of the Legion
of Honor in France and Knight of the
Garter in England. These will admit him
to the presence Of the sultan on all occa-
sions, whether in public or private life.
This gave him many opportunities Of OBJ
serving the inner political life of the en-
pire, which furnished hlm an insight into
many matters hidden from the public.
He was admitted to the treasure house of
the empire, to which no one is allowed
TO enter except by special PERMISSION of
the sultan. Here he beheld some of the
most valuable diamonds and jewels in {
the world. As Col. Sellers would say,
there were millions in it," but these are
guarded from the least oppor-
tunlty OF being purloined. The Turks c
he considered, the most religious people J
on the globe. Wherever Moslem Is,
when the muzzin Sounds he falls prostrate
on his face, and cannot be disturbed until
the prayer is finished. The next minute
he will continue his business. as though
nothing had happened. G
The greatest interest was manifested q
through the entire lecture, and the expe-
riences of Mr.. Thompson gave evidence :
that he was one OF the closest observers n n
Of men and manners. On all subjects in
relation to this portion of the Orient the
address was very edifyIng, and very many
we're treated to facts of which they had
no previous knowledge. At the close Mr.. o
Thompson displayed several photographs y
which he had In his possession of the
of the reigning family, and
hese were examined with interest by u
hose present.
