Tho Female Aeronnut Makes An Unfor-
tunato Parachute Descent.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, January Miss
Stella Robbins, the widely known wo-.
man aeronaut, made probably fatal
descent here to-day. She has been gly-,
ing Sunday afternoon ascensions here,
for the past few weeks and this after
noon started on her usual voyage from
San Pedro Park. St
The balloon arose to a height of about
1000 feet when Miss Robbins let her
self drop with the parachute. The
parachute opened, but the wind carried
it down with great rapidity and it
struck large tree with i4s burden with
terrific force. Miss Robbins right leg
was broken and she received internal
injuries which will probably result
fatally.

Full of Dynamite.

Most intense excitement prevailed in
Judge Sulliyan's court room Wednesday
afternoon during the examination OF
lIenager for insanity. While Attorney
Mark Fullerton was quitting the witness
stand, after testifylng to Henager's
strange actions aud threats, Mrs. Hen
ager walked into court from the prose-
cutting attorneys office. Catching sight
OF her, Heuager sprang from the grasp
the officers guarding him, and with
horrible epithet, hurled q dynamite cap
at his wife. 1t struck the coat OF the at
toruey and glanced to the clerk s desk,
falling on the carpet. \ large crowd OF
spectators Was on tiptoe with excitement
and the Judge, doctors and lawyers all
started for the door.
Henagcr was boond down, dragged in
to a side room and searched. Five
small dynamite cartridges were found on
him. The case went on till Mrs. Hena-
ger took the stand, when the crazy man
ished still another cartridge out OF his
sleeve, but was relieved OF it promptly.
Finally he made an attempt to pull his
vest off, and an examination showed q
ca fridge in his vest strap at the back.
Heuager was then taken to his cell,
stripped aud re-clothed.
Henager is native OF Kentucky, 30
years old, has two children, and has
lived here l2 years. He was once com
mitted to the Medical Lake asylum.
"Are you married?' Dr., Boswell
asked Henager during the examination,
and the reply was, Irregular HI"
"Any chiIdren?" was asked, and He

Pres. Bryan's Speech.

A large and intelligent audience greet
ed President Enoch A. Bryan, of the
state agricultural college, at the court
house on Saturday evening and listened
with interest and pleasure to his dis
course on the "Origin and influence of
the English language" He traced the
history of the English tongue from it's
earliest sources, and told how the pres
ent tongue was evolved from the low
German of the Angles and Saxons, with
the infusion of French terms at the Nor
man invasion, and the acquisition of
Greek and Latin terms through scien-
tific nomenclature, etc. Chaucer had
been the first great author to amalga-
mate the various tongues of Briton into
. harmonious whole, and King James
had made the language fixture in

Must Wheat Mixed with Wild Oats

to pass for MeFchantaDle?
To settle this question fully, I will buy
wheat so mixed with wild oats OF other
foul stuff, on any line Of X. r.. in East
ern Washington, to any amount, as
merchantabIe, and pay the full market
price at any and all times for same. All
| ask is that the wheat be merchantable
and the seller to allow the tare con-
taned in same to be deducted. | have
made complete arrangements for clean
ing all the wheat mixed with foul stuff,
free OF charge to the farmer, at terminus.
Realizin the condition Of low price of
wheat at the present time, and believing
the farmer could i'll afford to lose / y
cents per bushel or more for any new
experiment in order to have his wheat
grade merchantable or No. !, made
these arrangements and am prepared to
carry out the same to the full satisfac-
on OF customers. am also in market

THE CITY ELECTION.
It was a Very Quiet Affair, and Light
Vote was P0lled,
The Only Contest was Over the Office of
City Marshal. $

The election of last Tuesday resulted
in the election OF city officers as enum-
Grated above.
Inasmuch as there was only one ticket
in the field, and the number Of indie
pendent candidates was few and far be-
tween, the election did not occasion
much enthusiasm, the only office on
hich fight was made being that OF
marshal. In North Pullman precinct 50
ballots were cast, and in South Pullman
the number was l6l, 8 total OF 243, the
vote for each being as follows:
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1894-12-07

Besides the above votes for regular
nominees, there were a good many
scattering votes. NJ. w. Drinkwater,
although he declined to be a candidate,
receiving 27 votes for councilman-at-
large; Dir. Powell two for health officer;
A. White one for treasurer; j. W. Math-
eWs seven and John Lingren one for at
torney, while some facetious voter want
ed "Dodd Taylor for mayor and "Tom
Hardware" for a councilman. Many
others also received one or two votes
each for different offices, the absence OF
a contending ticket giving great latitude
for scattering"
The new city officers are men of abil-
iUy and personal worth, and will serve
the city faithfully and well.
The councilmen will draw lots for long
and short terms at their 1rst meeting in
January, when they take their seats.
