of that structure. He secured
dry dishrags, saturated them with
coal oil from a lamp in the base
ment, and then placed them
through a hole in the plaster,
between the walls, where plumb
ers had been working. He then
lighted the mass with a match
secured. in some manner. The
fire was discovered by the en-
ployes and extinguisled before
much headway was gained.
Openings were made in the wall
above and below, and a stream
of water soon extinguished the
flames. This is the second at
tempt in the past week. 1t was
made by a new arrival at this
institution.

ANOTHER STRIKE COMING.

Pittsburs, July 15.-Anotller
strike is imminent III Pittsburg
and vicinity. If predictions from
reliable sources prove true, the
Amalganated Association Of Iron
and Steel Workers will attempt
about August 1 to shut down all
mills here where puddlers are
working for less than 1915 To
accomplish this end organization
has been going on until almost
every non-union mill has been
brought into the. union. The
movement for the present is to
be confined to pudding mills and
to be developed further in the
future. Vice-president Carney
admitted its truth, and said
should a strike be ordered it
would be a successful one.

PAROONS WHILE YOU WAIT.

Portland, July 15.-(To the
editor Of the Oregonian:j Pen
noyer's term of office expires
soon, and those who have rela-
tives and friends in the peniten-
tiary should file their applica-
tons for pardons at once. III
this connection it might not be
out of place to tell a true story.
Not long since the governor of
Oregon was one of a half a dozen
persons standing in line at the
stamp window of the Portland
postofice. A stranger i1nncdi
ately in front Of his excellency
trod in a very feeling manner
upon a large pear-shaped buniorl
that the governor brought with
him from the Snye hills in Mis-
souri,, as far back as 40. The
stranger naturally and politely
said "Beg pardon," and in re-
spOnSe thereto was not a little
astonished to have thrust into his
hand a large official envelope,
which, upon perusal of its con-
tents, proved to be an official par
don, signed in blank by his pop
ulistic nibs and under the great
seal Of state. WEI. CALDWELL.

D0INGS OF THE WHEELMEN
F. P. trusts Long Ride-Ra-
ces at Independence
. Wheel Gossip.

F. P. Brust, bicyclist of Port
land, is performing a valuable
work as he goes through the
country. The league of Amer
lean wheelmen has undertaken a
big task in looking out passable
roads across the country where
bicyclists have never gone, for
the purpose Of establishing per
lnanent routes. AS he goes along
he is provided with map of the
country il which he is riding an1
marks tie farm houses OIL tie
road and the other roads branch
ing from the 1nai1 one. These
maps are then sent to the North
Pacific Cycle company at Port
land, general agents for tie "Iln-
perial," " who il turn transmit
them to tie main office of the
wlleelncn'5 league. It is not
known that a bicyclist has ever
crossed the Blue mountains OIL
his wheel, and it is quite certain
none has crossed the Rockies eat
of here. M. Brujt has unde--
taken that task AMI will press OIL
until he wheels up the streets of
New YORK Cit. Gre sjing the
mountains, in case lie learns that
lie must travel a days stretch
without finding 4 habitatio;l, he
will victual his two Wheeled ship
ana boldly strike into the lnou,i-
tan fastne35. He rides a 33-
pound Imperial, although When
accoutcrel for tie trip several
pounds of baggage az added.
When New York has been reach
ed, Mr.. Bru3t Will have travelled
Oh his wheel by the routes he
will be compelled 20 take at least

weight when not il training is

he has for some tine kept down
his weight to 1.34 pounds.
A novelty III the cycling line
which has been attracting cons;d-
cradle attention for the past week
is unicyc,e most ingeniously
contrived to run along by its own
momentum after it has been fair
ly set going by the usual pedal
ling method. A forward inclina-
ton of tie riders body keeps the
wheel revolving, and it is said it
can be easily stopped by leaning
backward. The same simple law
of gravitat;on causes it to spin
unerringly round any curve to-
ward which tie rider leans on
either side. The machine has no
steering gear and is said to require
none beyond the tendency given
to it's direction by the pose of the
riders body. The motion is
generated as in a safety bicycle
until the inner wheels set the
outer or travelling wheel spill

startling account of a scandal at

A few nights ago some officers of

the sentry thrust a bayonet into
one and shouted for the guard.
The guard turned out promptly
and the officers were arrested.

Correspondence.
OPELOUsAs, Aug. 80, 1894
EDITORS COURIER:

EDITORS COURIER:
In your last issue I advocated the
candidacy of Hon. P. j. Chappuis, of
Acadia, as member of Congress from
this Congressional District and urged
the Democracy of st. LaIdry to bury
its differences and join Acadia in maxi
ing him a candidate. In the Clarion's
issue of that date, | observed editorials,
foreshadowing that the Congressional
Executive Committee would depart
from Democratic %precedents through
out the district, instead of holding a
district convention, and in the same
editorials it was stated that there were
some of the other political faction who
were urging Mr.. Chappuis' candidacy
with the view OF bolstering up Col.
Robertson's chances for reelection. If
the writer of the editorials referred to
will join this writer in advocating the
candidacy of Mr.. Chappuis, he will in a
short time have the pleasure OF seeing
Col. Robertson's defeat and Mr.. Chap
puts election. Whilst not championing
the actions of the Committee, I am far
from believing it to be undemocratic,
as primaries have been so frequently
resorted to in the last three years, that
it would seem undemocratic to test the
will of the people otherwise. Far from
being disadvantageous to Mr.. Chappuis'
chances, the action of the committee 10
ordering primaries is highly advanta-
geous. St. Landry and Acadia's vote
in the primaries will aggregate at least
one-thira OF Of the entire vote which
will be cast iii the primaries, and if
there are several candidates in the field
Mr.. C%tappuis will enter the race with
more assurance of election than any
other, Col. Robertson not excepted.
Whilst Mr.. Chappuis and myself have
not affiliated together in politics, l
ton, and vouch for his fitness and abili.
ty aud trust that the Democracy of ST..
Landry will heal its differences and sup
port Acadia's candidate.
