J. Egan, who pleaded guilty to the
charge of larceny from a store, in steal
ing some 140 knives and a lot of pistols
from Mays & Grove, was this morning
sentenced to two years in the peniten-
tiary. Williams, who was arrested with
him, has filed motion for new trial.
J. T. Rourk and o. D. Taylor have
had a suit before Judge Stearns in Port
land, the former suing the latter for
81 800 on note, and the latter settling
up that he paid the note by building
house for the plaintiff in North Dalles.
Judge Stearns has the matter under ad-
visement.
The motion for new trial in the case
of the state against VIM. Williams was
argued this morning and the motion
overruled. Williams was then sentenced
to two years in the penitentiary. Judge
Bradshaw was strictly impartial, giving
him the same sentence that Egan, his
partner got.
Last night was the coldest of the sea-
son and when the sun came out this
morning only the very hardest vegeta-
ton had the hardihood to stand up and
I,enioy it. The chrysanthemums are still
smiling, but they are alone. The pop
lars have shed about all their leaves,
and the first breath of breeze will re-
tire the balance.
Why does Butts look sad?. The reason
is plain. H had prize turkey almost
as large as any condor. 1t was the de-
light of his eye, both of them in fact,
and he had often in gazing at his favor
ite bird let his thoughts wander to the
bright Thanksgiving day, when he should
absorb a portion of him. He will never
see him more, for he was but is not for
someone took him.
In publishing the list of bills allowed
by the commissioners court last week,
we made slight mistake. The bills for
witnesses before justice Fligg in the Root
case, about dozen in number, were put
over until next term for the reason that
the law. only allows eight witnesses.
The commissioners were willing to pay
all the law allowed, but as they did not
know which ones to pay, the whole mat
ter was returned to Justice Fligg for cor
rection.
The very beautiful dinner sci adver-
tised to be given away by L. Rorden &
Co., to their customers, was presented
last night to Miss Anne Lang, because
in drawing the tickets from the box the
one that came out first had her name on
it. The name of every person who pur-
chased $1.00 worth of goods was placed
on ticket and deposited in box. Last
night the drawing took place with result
as stated. Miss Lang is to be congratu-
lated on receiving SO elegant prize.

Clarke got in an alteration, winding up
