 It is not possible to make up proper ly balanced ration from the feeds named. Doubtless ration could be constructed on which COWS would produce milk, but the purchase of some nitrOgenous feed would, we believe, prove profitable. We should be inclined to try the so-called s.s Buffalo gluten meal, y manufactured at Peoria, H., which is fully as cheap as bran, and preferable to 1t for combining with ensilage and timothy hay. The 2. Chicago gluten meal" would also serve sa similar purpose, but considerably less of It would be advisable in the ration than of the Buffalo gluten meal. The following combination is suggested:

HUNTINGTON HAS AN EXCITING RACE.
 A lively race by small pig and Willis Reese took place, last Monday evening. The pig got away from Edward Clark oi Daniels Farm, who was delivering some in this place and MT Reese started in to catch it. The pig won the race and was not caught until the next day by Fl. I. Brownson. The way that pig and Ar Reese went across swamps, over fences and through fields, would outdo any run. ming match that ever took place at the fair or anywhere else.

 in fact, these two qualities, 20 essential to the perfect horse, have been over looked in the mad rush for speed. To attempt to produce the horse in demand at present, and not have these two char acteristics very prominent, is but to in- vite failure.

THE DALLEs, OREGON TUESDAY, JANUARY IS. 1894
a Train Robber Killed.

HAvERsTRAw, Jan. 10. = Yesterday
morning the watchman at Haverstraw
tunnel, on the West Shore railroad, dis
covered the body of a man lying on the
south-bound track with his skull crushed
in. The body was found to be that of a
robber, as he had burglars tools in his
pockets, and wrapped around his body
were 10 yards of velvet, which he had
stolen from West Shore freight car.
He had secreted himself in the car at
Weehawken, and when he arrived at
Haverstraw opened the door and threw
out number of boxes of plush and vel
vet and jumped from the moving train !;
he landed on his head and was killed.
1t is supposed that he had accomplices
here waiting for him to throw off the
goods, as some of the boxes were found
hidden under the trestle just north of
the tunnel. The dead man was about
80 years old and had smooth face. He
wore dark clothes, apparently new, and
derby hat. The letters "J. D." were
tattooed on the left arm.

Condition of the Corwin.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 15.-The revenue
cutter Corwin has been brought out of
her retirement, but she is in very bad
way and will have to be laid up for re-
pairs. Her record breaking attempt to
get in at night was too much for the
little boat, and her boilers have given
out They will have to be thoroughly
overhauled, new water tanks put in and
the machinery patched up before she
can again go to sea. The vibration of
the machinery was SO great toward the
end that the hull was slightly strained,
and the vessel is leaking little.

rne Republican Members Kick.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Reed, Bur-
rows, Dalzell, Payne and Hopkins,
republican members of the ways and
means committee, held hasty confer
ence today and agreed to make de-
mand for recognition of republican
amendments to the Wilson bill. This
action is due to report that Richard
son of Tennessee, who will be in the
chair during the consideration of the
amendments, would recognize only Will
son for the committee amendments.
The plan agreed upon by the republican
leaders was that Immediately after
Wilson's first amendments on tobacco
were disposed of, Burrows will insist
that Wilson has no more rights than
any other member of the house. He
will urge that Wilson is not acting by
authority of the full ways and means
committee, and the democratic amend
ments had not been submitted to the
republican members of the committee.

Liiliuokalani,s Threatened suit.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The rumor.
that ex-Queen billiuokalani is about to
bring suit against the United States for
large sum of money, basing her claim
for damages upon the recent Hawaiian
message and Secretary Gresham's letter.
has created great deal of interest in
official circles. A suit cannot be brought
by an individual against the govern
ment, and there is no method of proceed
ure, through the courts, by which the
ex-queen could present her claim. The
only course Lilliuokalani can pursue is
to submit her claim against the United
States. This congress would have to
approve before the claim could be ad-
justed by the court of claims. In fact,
the only recourse of the ex-queen is to
congress, where, In view of her present
unpopularity, she could scarcely expect
to meet with satisfaction or success.

I'm the SENATE.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-At the open
ing OF the senate this morning there was
an unusual food of petitions protesting
against the passage of the Wilson tariff
bill. After tracsacting business of
minor Importance, the senate went into
executive session on Hornblower's NOM
ination.
1t is understood that Hill vigorously
opposed Hornblower's confirmation in
executive session of the senate today.
Among other things he is said to have
declared that Hornblower is not quall-
fed to sit on the supreme bench. 1t is
said that Hills speech as whole in
dicated vigorous opposition to the adj
ministration.

MANY PEOPLE KILLED
FrighHnl Railroad Collision Near
Jersey City.
PASSENGER CARS rELEscoPED
The Accident Caused by a Fog--A
Trainrobber Accidentally
Killed.

New York, Jan. l5.-An accident oc-
Cured this morning at Hackensack
bridge, on the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western road, near Jersey City. Two
passenger trains collided with fatal re-
suits. The collision was between the
Dover and Orange express trains, and
was caused by fog. Two cars telescoped,
16 people were killed, and 25 injured.
The Dover express left Rossville at a.
M, followed four minutes later by the
regular Communication train. Approach
ing Hackensack bridge the engineer of
the express slowed up, the fog prevent
ing him from seeing the signals. The
Communication train following did not
slow up, and crashed into the rear of
the express, completely wrecking the
last two cars, both full of passengers,
who were crushed to death or terribly
mangled. The engineer of the commu-
tation train is missing, supposed to be
among the killed. A passenger of one of
the trains who reached here says he
counted fifteen dead bodies alongside
the wreck, and others are thought to be
dead.
