DUEL0F DOCTORS.
Two Physicians at Portland,
Or, Fill Each Other
With Lead.
PROBABLY FATALLY WOUNDED.
A. Professional Quarrel the
Cause of the Bloody
Encounter.

PORTLAND, Or, Aug. l9.-At noon
the report Of several shots in rapid
succession were heard to come from
the Office of DIR. II. R. Holmes in the
Bekum building. The tenants of the
bnilding rushed Gin and found the
PROSTATE bodies Of DR.. Holmes and DR..
Robert K. Ashlund, each of whom
was holding a smoking pistol in his
hand. There were no other persons
in the room. Ashlund had a hole in
his body, one in his head. another in
his breast and another in his right
wrist. Holmes was wounded in two
places, one ball having entered All arln
and the other the body just below the
left nipple. Ashlund was taken to the
hospital and Holmes to his residence.
Ashlund's wounds will undoubtedly
result fatally, while the physicians
think Holmes will recover. 1t is not
known what was the cause Of the
shooting but it is thought it is due to a
criticism Of Holmes Of Ashlund's
methods of treating a patient.

To supersede Graphite.

A new material has been discovered
in u Of the western states-which one
will not be told for awhile yet-that
may make its finder fabulously rich.
The pencil manufacturers are somewhat
perturbed over the matter, for the ma
terial is said to answer the purpose of
graphite in every way.
Outside Of the imported graphite the
mines at Ticonderoga have supplied a
great part of the stuff from which the
leads of pencils are made. The discovery
has been kept very quiet, but the stuff
is said to answer all the requirements
and can be sold for one-half the price of
the present materiaL-New York World.

that Is men be summoned to act as

SOMETHING NEW AFlOAT,
Queer Animals Which Have Long Legs at

""" y" "a Wy GaI
The naval photographic Office has
been notified of the discovery of a new
form Of animal life in the open ocean
which has hitherto not been classified
by naturalistS. who are unable from the
description received to say just what is

He was cruising in the south Atlantic
b -"een Cape Horn and the Cape of
Good Hope, a little to the west of the

The entry on his log is as follows:
"This afternoon my mate called my
attention to the looks Of the water. I
went on deck and saw several spots Of
yellow and muddy looking water. We
steered for one Of these spots, and pass
ing through it observed that the water

The Fats In the Fire.

"The fats in the fire." indicating
that an enterprise has suffered disaster,
is found in very old English times. The
metaphor is, of course, drawn from the
sight, familiar enough at hog killing
time, Of lard beng melted from the fat
portions Of the carcass, the upsetting of
the vessel causing the loss Of the melted
fat. By a figure of speech, fat is sup
posed to indicate good luck or wealth,
and the flats in the fire" was synony-
mous with the failure Of promising en-
terprise.

WHERE is RICHARD?
If Alive He Is Heir to a Large Fortune
Through His Uncle.

IL alive ne Is he1f TO q Large Fortune
Through His Uncle.
A lad named Richard Hanson shipped
as a common seaman on board the sail
ing vessel County of Carnarvon, which
left New South Wales on June /, 1889.
The ship was bound for the west coast
Of South America. A few weeks later
h was sunk, and the report of the COM
pany which owned her was that all on
board We're lost.
The lad was a native Of Pernau, La
vonia, and was al orphan. Early in his
life he had become fascinated with sea
life, and when but IS ran away from his
comfortable home to become a sailor.
He suffered many hardships in drifting
about the world before he took the i'll
fated voyage on the County of Carnar-
VOL. AS he had escaped from several &C
cidents almost miraculously. his rela-
tives refused to believe that he had per-
lshed in the sinking Of this ship.
Among the relatives is in uncle, Hans
Ochibaum, who still lives in Pernau.
The lad Richard had been his favorite,
and the uncle now wishes to make him
heir to property worth from $l5, 900 to
$50, 00O. He declines to leave this mon
ey to any n else until it is proved in
d%isputably that his nephew is dead. AS
a means OF ascertaining whether OF not
his nephew is still alive he has had sent
to all parts Of the world an ADVERTISE
ment requesting Hanson himself, or II
person who may have knowledge Of his
fate. to communicate with Ivanovitch
Bostroem Of a23 East Sixty-ninth street,
New York.
Bostroem, who is a friend Of the un-
Gle, has made a diligent search, but thus
far without result. A man called upon
him soon after the advertisement was
sent out, and told him that he had
known a young man by the name of
Richard Hanson in Astoria, Or, two
years before. Bostroem sent a letter of
inquiry to the Sailors union Of Astoria,
but received a reply to the effect that
there was no Sailors union there, and
that no man named Hanson lived in the
city. If alive, Hanson is now 25 years
of age.-New York Sun.

Criminal Case Against Corbett
and Fitz Dismissed.
The Injunction Against Fight
ing Still in Force.
MUST QUIT THE STATE.
Gov. Clarke Made an Agreement
With the Fighters.
Julian Has Not Yet Put Up His
Ten Thousand Dollars.

LITTLE Rock, Nov. 2.-The cases
against Fitzsimmons and Julian, Brady
and Corbett, were dismissed today by
the court on their agreement to leave
the state as soon as they can.
All the fighters are included, and the
big fellows will be given a reasonable
time to get out. Gov Clarke says he has
no intention of driving them out. but it
will be serious thing if the restraining
order is violated.
The agreement between the fighters
and their managers on the one side and
the governor on the other was reached
yesterday. Gov. Clarke said he was will
ling to abandon proceedings if the men
would take themselves out of the state
of Arkansas.
After the postpOnement of the cases in
court again this morning the attorney
general and Attorney Martin went direct
to the office of the governor
and after an hours conference.
Attorney General Trustworthy went back
to the court house and made arrange
ments with Judge Martin, of the circuit
court, to be in his office at noon. He
was there on time and in few words
Attorney Hemmi ingway, for the state,
asked that the cases be dismissed, saying
promise of the defendants to do as they
agreed.
Fitzsmmons and Julian were not in
court, but their representative, Mr..
South, said that the prisoners had agreed
to leave as stated. The case was at
once dismissed
A few minutes later the case against
Brady and Corbett came up before
Chancellor Martin, who dismissed the
inc m tho abOWiTly m ~ q
by the attorneys on both sides.
lie told them they were not.compelled
to leave the state,5 but if they violated
the Injunction restraining them from
fighting they would get not less than
two years in the county jail.
Fitzslmmons and his manager Julian,
I both expressed themselves this morning
as being anxious TO accept either Bradg's
proposition of last night 81 fight in Lou
isiana or the Florida Athletic clubs
proposition to fight at Ell Pdso. Julian
preferred the Texas battle ground as the
$4,000 forfeit offered would help pay for
the lost time he said, 10 case the fight
did not come off. He declared, however,
that he would have his $1,000 ready to
nccept Brady's proposal today if pOssi-
BILE.
"There is some doubt of my getting 1t
today" he said, 'as my man in the north
wants the fight to come off in public. but
1 have wired him full particulars and
he will, think, get the money here to-
day"
Later in the day. however, there SEEM
ed to be no possibility of a fight any
where.
Brady will agree to nothing unless
Julian's $4,000 is up, and there are 70
signs vet of its being up.
Corbett and Brady will leave for New
10 s,t,
of seeing the $4,000 nut up by Julian.

VOTE IT DOWN.
COuntyCOmmisSiOners Want the
Court House Sold,
Although Real Estate is Now a
Drug.
A DEAL IS IN 1T,
Most Likely-For There is No
Reason to Sell.
Vote For the New Bridge
About the Bonds.
A DEAL Is IN 1T,

Just why the county commissioners
are determined to force the people to.
agree that they may sell the old court
house is not quite clear aud is, to say the
least. suspicious.
Last year the people said that they
did not want the court house sold, and
still the commissioners again submit the
proposition in the apparent hope that
they Will catch the people mapping.
No man who is not compelled to do SO
would sell property now and the county
is not compelled to and the court house
should not be sold now when there is ale
most no sale for real estate and prices of
properly are at rock bottom. The voters
should defeat the proposition giving the
county commissioners authority to sell it..
as they did before. The board seems to
court another Febuke and the voters
should accommodate them.
The commissioners made a mistake
when they submitted the bridge propo- :
sition. They provided for the issuance
of 20-year per cent bonds, but made no
provision for the payment of the bonds.
OF course provisions for a sinking fund
may be made afterward, but it should
have been done before the proposition
was Submitted.
There must be new bridge built
across the Kansas river and if it is not
built soon the old structure may fall and
entail a loss which money can never
pay. There is honest difference of opinion
about the kind of bridge which would
best serve the people, but when there is
but $150,000 available we must do the
best we can.
While the Melan arch bridge has not
been used extensively engineers agree
that it is a safe bridge and several have
recently been built in other parts of the
country. There must be bridge and
the present proposition should carry.
