ADJUDGED INSANE.
Strange Authorizations of Victim of
insanity.

This morning there was examined
before Judge Blakely a man named
David Williams, who has become in
sane on the question of wealth. He is
aged ~ years and was born in England.
For the past two years he has done odd
jobs around the city, cutting wood,
etc. DIR. Hollister was the examining
physician, and the man impaired to
him the in formation in confidence that
very recently his grandfather, aged
13O years and his grandmother at the
age of 120 years, had died in England
leaving him fortune of ten hundred
thousand million pounds. If the doctor
could get him out of this scrape, he
said, he wouldn't mind giving him a
million pounds. While Imparting this
strange tale, he cunningly watched an
opportunity, when he was not watched.
and jumped out of the open window
and ran down the street. Judge Blake
ley and the janitor, Mr.. j. FitzGerald.
followed in close pursuit, and overlook
him after he had gone about block.
1t was a hard run, and the fellow
fought desperately for his liberty.
After he was brought back he was
placed in the county Jail. On oUher
subjects except that of his immense
wealth Williams appears sane enough:
but on this question he is undoubtedly
demented. and his attempt at escape
shows that a careful guard has to be
kept over him. He was adjudged in
sane, and was taken to the asylum
this afternoon.

The Grasshopper Plague.

From Mr.. W. N. Wiley, who arrived
in town from his Antelope sheep farm
last Saturday, we learn that grasshop-
pers are making inroads on crops on
Trout creek. They come in countless
numbers, and, after few hours, leave
growing vegetation in condition sim
liar to the effects of destructive fire.
Not green blade appears above the
surface, and the stalks of wheat and
other growing cereals are levelled to
the ground. While en- route they
darken the atmosphere, moving in
such great numbers. They swim
streams, and if few thousands are
drowned it does not seem to lessen
the number. The vigor of their on
slaughts does not appear to diminish
by reason of the death of large num-
ber. They have unlimited resources
on which to draw, and by intuition ap-
pear to follow good military tactics.
The Antelope valley is so far free from
them; but the farmers are dreading
the approach of the plague. A heavy
rain, perhaps. would stop their prog
ress; but at this season of the year
this is unusual. and cannot be ex-
pected,

Guilty of Manslaughter.

The trial of John Hawthorne for
killing Carpolis, the Indian police
man, was given to the jury in the q. S.
district court in Portland Saturday
afternoon, and, after they had been
out four hours they returned verdict
of guilty of mansladghter. This case
has been on trial several days, and was
of especial interest to citizens of this
county because the young man was for
many years resident of The Dalles,
and is now indicted for burglary COM
mitted in this city. Several witnesses
from this place were examined, and
Hon. E. B. Dufur, one of our leading
lawyers, was one of the attorneys for
the defense. Mr.. Hawthorne was very
fortunate in escaping with so light
verdict. Very few of our citizens ever
thought it would be less than murder
in the second degree, and some con-
sidered that first degree was certain.

A Detective Bound in a Boat and Sent
Down Snake River

A Detective Bound in Boat and Sent
Down Snake River
A Caldwell special to the Boise
Statesman says:
"a decidedly sensational chapter in
the now famous Roman murder case
pearance of G. r. Eldredge, the al
legged detective, who caused the arrest
of Mat Crump on the charge of being
the author of the crime.
"Eldredge came in tonight from
Huntington, with Sheriff Campbell, of
this place, and claims that he was
seized about II o'clock Monday night
by two masked men at the barn of
hand and foot and gagged, and carried
off to the Boise river. He says he was
placed in boat and tied with baliug
wire, and that the kidnapers Travelled
with him Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday nights, secreting them
selves during the day time, he being
then tied to the bushes.
Thursday afternoon he claims to
have been lef' in the boat at point
near Old's ferry, below Weiser. The
oars in the boat were taken away and
the boat pushed off in the middle of
Snake river. He foated along down
the stream in helpless condition,
struggling desperately to free himself.
He succeeded in loosening his hands
near the Huntington railroad bridge
at II o'clock last night. The boat
nearing the shore he jumped in the
water and swan to land. He says he
reachad HuntinptOn ahout ID O'c1ock
very much exhausted.
He notified Sheriff Campbell, who
went to Huntington this morning. He
brought back with him the wire with
which Eldredge said he was fastened.
"Eldredge limps when he walks, but
there are no evidences of violence on
his person. His story is corroborated,
however, by his appearance when he
entered Huntington. He believes a
deep-laid scheme had been developed
to put him out of the way in view of
the facts in his possession concerning
the Roman murder"

The Importance of Highway TO This
City From Gillian County.

The Importance of a Highway TO This
City From Gillian County.
Since the Regulator has reduced
freights on the Columbia river to sea-
board the interior has been attracted
to The Dalles as shipping point, and
not the least interested has been a
large portion of Gillian county, which
has hitherto had its market at
Arlington. Wheat, at The Dalles, IS
quoted 10 cents higher than at Airing
ton, and wool has always commanded
three or four cents better price per
pound. These facts are known to the
farmers of Gillian county, and they
realize the importance of a road direct
to The Dalles. Active measures have
last few days and a route surveyed.
mile north of Mayville, and from
twenty-five miles distant from the
initial point. The grading for this
distance will be easy, except at one
point where rocks will have to be re-
moved, and Gillian county will see
that the road is completed to the John
Day. This stream will have to be
bridged, and they are willing to stand
half of the cost of this. 1t is thought
to construct steel bridge over the
stream, but wooden one would be
much cheaper. and would answer the
purpose. After ascencing from the
river there will be no ditficent grad
ing to this city, as it will then enter
the plains of Sherman county, where
road can be built almost anywhere.
The trip to The Dalles and return can
be made in three days, and the better
price for wheat and wool will more
than reimourse farmers for the extra
time than that in going and coming
from Arlington. There is no doubt
that farmers of Gillian county are in
earnest about this matter, and this
summer 1t may be confidently expected
that the road will be under construc-
tion and nearing completion.

Strange, If True,

Sunday last as an Oregon Central
freight train was passing Blodgett,
Benton county, at the rate of Is miles
an hour horse being ridden by a
young lady named Miss Mackenzie,
took fright and threw the lady, but
her foot caught in the stirrup and she
was being dragged head downward.
Conductor James McErlane, seeing
the accident, leaped from the top of a
boxcar and rushing up steep en-
bankment headed the horse off,
grasped the bride and released the
lady's foot from the stirrup and stood
her on her feet. She thanked him
kindly and he had just time enough to
catch the tail-end of the caboose as the
tran rushed by. This is the substance
Of the story that came by way of Cor
wallis, and unless McErlane marries
the girl there may be some doubt as to
the correctness of certain alleged sit
uations,

The Game Played in This City Yesterday
by the Dufur and Hood River Mines.
The game of base ball at the fair
grounds yesterday afternoon, notwith-
standing the fact that the weather was
very unfavorable, attracted fair num-
ber of spectators, and was watched
with interest from beginning to end
ing. During the day the wind, blew
perfect hurricane, and it was almost
impossible to gauge balls. The Hood
Rivers were in good practice, and
showed that they understood the game
completely. There were two men short
of the Dufur nine, and these had to be
supplied by strangers. The Hood
River nine consisted of D. Rand, c.;
J. Castner, p.; w. c. Stranahan, 1st b.;
C. Castner, I'd b.: c. Luckey, Sd b.; E.
Irons, 5. s.; H. Hansbury, r. f.; w.
Wendorf, C. f.; E. 10y, l. +. The Dufur
nine were composed of j. Keller, c.: J.
Maloney, p; George Dufur, S. S.; w.
Ragsdale, 1st b.: j. Blacksmith, I'd b.;
J. Snecale, Sd b.: J. Stats, C. f.; Willis
Hendricks, l. f.; w. Hendricks, r. f.
1t was not expected from the high wind
that blew in the afternoon that the
score could be kept down, and the re-
suit proved this. At the end of the
ninth inning the tally-sheets showed
20 runs fof Hood River to for Dufur.

After Twenty Years Separation Two Lovers
are United as Husband ana Wife.
The marriage of Miss Spense to Mr..
F. w. DeLentmen furnishes romance
in real life. which had happy ending.
Mr.. DeLentmen was born in France,
and afterwards removed to England,
where he became acquainted with Miss
Spense. Their acquaintance ripened
into love, and they became engaged.
But Mr.. DeLentmen was not possessed
of sufficient of this worlds goods to
support wife, and he left the old
country to try his fortunes in the new.
This was twenty years ago. and after
landing in New York he came west,
until he finally settled in Grant county
in the sheep business. Life to him
was rugged, uphill road until re-
Gently, when he found himself
possessed of comfortable competence;
but during all this time he did not
forget the true-hearted English girl,
and constantly corresponded with her.
Last week she arrived in town after a
journey of six thousand miles to Join
her life with that of Mr.. DeLentmen,
after patiently waiting twenty years.
Now she will take journey 200 miles
into the interior, where she will make
her home amid different surroundings
from those of the peaceful cottage which
she left far behind. But she has
joined the man she loved, and en-
will never make the heart
grow weary.

a Gem.

We find the following gem going
the rounds of the press, without credit:
Remember this young man. Be
careful what you say about woman g
character. Think how many years
she has been building it, of the tolls
and privations endured, of wounds re-
ceived, and let no suspicion follow her
actions. The purity of the women is
the salvation of the race, th 9 hope of
greatness and the redemption of m IN.
Wipe out her purity and the man sinks
beneath the wave of despair, without
star to guide his life into the chan
mel of safety. Think then before you
speak, and remember that any, hog can
root up the fairest flower that ever
grew; so the vilest man can ruin the
purest woman's character"

Was it Intuition?

A runaway happened at the East
End yesterday afternoon that had a
peculiar ending. About ! o'clock an
expressman left his team standing in
the street, while he transacted some
business in store. They were not
left alone but few minutes until they
followed an intuition, or were fright
ened by some object, and took down
the street at break-neck pace.
Strange to relate, after running about
a block they took a notion and made
their way into the saloon of Mr..
Skibbe. One horse came into the
room, through the swinging doors;
but it is unnecessary to state that he
was soon elected, being not considered
a proper being for such a resort.
Little damage was done; but, Mr..
Skibbe says. if aside from his usual
customers, he is supposed to afford
refuge to every wild and runaway ami
NAL, he will give up the business.

He left last December and visited his
brother in South Dakota for some
time, and then went to Europe. After
spending some time in Germany he
made the tour of Italy, Palestine and
portion of Turkey. Satisfying him
self with foreign countries he returns
to The Dalles more contented than
ever, and will remain here until the
final summons come. America is the
best country he has seen yet. and the
little city of The Dalles is better
suited to him than any place he has
visited during his long sojourn abroad.
Mr. Bettingen enjoyed the trip very
much. gathering valuable information
in reference to the manners and Gus
toms of different peoples, and studying
the institutions of the governments.
