A Record for Bravery.

Representative Charles Morgan, OF Mis-
souri,, is a very mild-mannered man, but
has record for personal bravery which
many might envy. He was a union soldier
from Wisconsin and fought in many of the
greatest battles of the civil war, he was re-
peatedly captured and made his escape from
confederate prisons five times One Of his
escapes was extremely novel. He and other
prisoners were locked up In box car to be
shipped back in the interior of Virginia for
confinement into one of the southern prison
camps, of which he had experienced q fore
taste on a previous occasion. A confederate
guard was in the same car with the prisoners,
to prevent their escape, and strict Wig
lance twas kept upon every movement,
Morgan and a friend nevertheless, man
aged 70 regain their liberty under the very
eyes of the sentinel While lying on their
blankets they cut hole through the floor of
the car with knife, concealing the aperture
with their blankets until they had produ
an opening large enough to allow their bodies
to pass through. So quietly wds the work
done that neither the guard nor their fellow
prisoners surmised the truth. AS soon as an
opportunity presented itself, and the car was
dark enough to conceal their movements
they opened the aperture and dropped
through to the road bed, They gained the
adjoining woods and were furnished with pro-
visions by an old negro couple. In the course
OF few days they were again in the camp Of
Union army.

a ROSY VIEW OF THE FUTURE.
Chemistry Will Throw the Farmer Out
of Job.
Cable to the New York Sun

i
London, April 1.-two eminent men of
science, one French and one English, have
told us this week what they think of the
tendencies of the times and the prospects
ofthe future. The Frenchman, NJ Ber-
thelot, is so visionary in some of his ideas
that they seem be absurd The Eng
lishman, Prof. Huxley, is so conservative
that he is accused of extreme pessimism
Bethelot discussed the future triumphs of
chemistry under the subject of The
World in the Year 2000." He declared
that chemistry will furnish deliverance
from the social evils of the present day.
This will be accomplished in part bv
utilizing the heat of the sun and the cen
trial heat of the earth. The latter will he
obtained by shafts two miles deep. and
modern engineers are equal TO this
task. Chemical transformation will be
easy with such a source of heat at com
mand. When energy can be cheaply OBJ
tanned, food can be made from carbonic
acid, hydrogen taken from water. and
nitrogen taken from air. The work vege-
tables have 50 far done, science will soon
be able TO do better, with far greater pro
fusion, and independently of the seasons
or microbes or insects. There will then
be no passion to own land, beasts need not
be bred for slaughter, man will be milder
and more moral, The reign of chemistry
will beautify the planet, and there will
be no need to disfgure il with the works
of the agriculturist or with the CRIME Of
factories and chimneys. 1t will recover
its verdure, and the fora of the earth will
be a vast pleasure garden, and the human
race VIII live in peace and plenty.

Only Rich Men Can Be British omoers.
From london Trnth

What the demands upon the private
means of a cavalry officer really amount
to was strikingly shown the other day by
an excellent article in the Army and
Navy Gazette. The initial OUTLAY was
here put at 1900 and the annual expendi-
ture at 600 and these totals were sun
ported by full details of reeimental and
personal expenses, Whocan wonder that
almost every Gazette tells the tail Of
young. cavalry officers cutting the service
regardless of the money they have sunk
as soon as they realize what the position
means; or that the difficulty of keeping
up the supply of officers is constantly in
creasing, Notwithstanding the fact that
the entrance standard for the cavalry is
now below that of any other branch of
the armyl Unless it is desired that the
British cavalry shall eventually be ON
cered exclusively by the class which has
money and no brains, some drastic meas
ures will need to be taken without delav
to curtail the demands on cavalry officers,

your age and weight, shall ask you

And, indeed, upon further considera-

questions:
If we embark together on the stormy
seas Of life, have you the wherewith

Shall we be able to go as flrst-class

Died or HEART DISEASE.
Neal Knight, of Cannon Beach, Found
Dead at Arch Cape.

Last Saturday evening Neal Knight
an old resident of Cannon Beach, was
seen passing the residence of Mr.. Clou-
trie, just south of Arch Cape, evil
IDENTIFY on his way to the Austin House
where he has been employed Off and
on for several years. He had been to
Nehalem and was leading horse on
which was pack of provisions. Moth
ing more was thought Of the incident
until Sunday afternoon, when Mrs.
Philbrick and her sister, Ada Cloutrie,
who reside a few hundred yards be-
low the Cape, noticed the horse which
Mr.. Knight was leading the evening
previous, standing near the entrance
to the Arch. The pack was still on the
animals back, and it had evidently
never been home.
Naturally the curiosity Of the ladies
was aroused and strolling to the place
where the horse remained standing,
they were Mortified to find the lifeless
body of knight. He was lying on his
back and had evidently been dead for
hours. The neighbors were notified,
at once, and preparations made to re-
move the body to the Austin House,
where it now lies. There was no indi-
cation that the man had met with
foul play, as $50 was found in his
pockets, as we'll as other valuables.
A slight bruise on the back Of the head
was the only mark of injury, and that
was evidently caused by sudden fall.
All indications point to heart failure
as the cause of his death. Mr.. Knight
was a man of about 60 years, and was
a Canadian by birth. He has lived on
the coast for many years, and has al
ways been regarded as straight-for-
ward, steady man.
Alex Duncan, of Elk Creek, arrived
in the city yesterday afternoon with
the news of Mr.. Knights unfortunate
death. He stated that Justice Grimes,
of Seaside, would go over and hold the
inquest, after which the body will prob
ably be inferred at Cannon Beach, as
it is difficult to get wagon over the
toll road. A casket was sent down yes
terday by Coroner Pohl, and will prob
ably be taken from Seaside to Cannon
Beach at once. It is not known wheth-
er the deceased had any relatices liv-
ing or not.

SUTTON & BEEBE WON AGAIN.
Another Chapter Added to the History
of the Haytian Republic.

The steamship Haptian Republic,
says the Sun, will now begin a new
career. Her existence has been a ro-
mantle one, her experience checkered.
No marvel, then, that she has been
the toy of many However, the jug
broken. After evading the customs
officers for number of years, she is
finally seized and confiscated by the
government. She is eventually offered
for sale by public auction by the
United States marshal, he setting the
minimum bid that would be accepted
at $4,000. On the day of the sale two
bids were received, one from Sutton &
Beebe, of $4,000, and one from Wheeler
& Price, of Seattle, of $15,O5O. The mar
shall set a time by which the mon
ey should be received, and owing to
the impromptitude of the highest bid
ders, the sale was completed to Sutton
& Beebe, Wheeler & Price Immediately
filed a petition asking the court to
set aside the sale of the vessel to SUIT
ton &c Beebe, and have her turned
over to them, claiming they were the
highest bidders, and that the money
was presented in reasonable time. The
petition further alleged that fraud and
collusion had been perpetrated by the
marshal and Sutton & Beebe, in per-
fecting the sale to Sutton & Beebe.
Sutton & Beebe filed demurrer and
exception through their attorney, toI
the petition of Wheeler & Price, and
after two or three days fighting, Judge
Bellinger yesterday sustained the de-
murrer of Sutton & Beebe, and rejected
the petition of Wheeler & Price.
In giving his decision the judge
thoroughly Nexonerated the marshal,
saying that he had performed his duty,
and was exempt from all blame or CEN
sure which this suit necessarily at
tributed to him.

your proposition, and that you were
