for us all to hear them relate their exper-
fences while absent, have invited you
ladies to assist me in receiving the party
tonight" Very soon a ring was heard
and the party was ushered in dressed, not
in celestial robes, but in the colonial
style, such as they formerly wore. Gen
eral Washington. Thomas Jefferson and
Johr Adams were personified by gentle
men who bear quite a resemblance, fac
tally to these illustrious heroes, and as
each one was called upon to give an
account of his journey, it proved both
interesting and amusing. Mr.. Brewer
followed with song written for the occa-
sion, which he sang in his inimitable
manner to the tune OF Yankee Doodle,
the audience joining IN the chorus. There
were other songs and several fine recita-
tons. Thus ended our first Washineton's
birthday exercises in Washington state.

Just inform our forty below-zero east
ern friends that we are bssklng in the
sunshine of this beautiful valley, in an
atmosphere equal in mildness to their
first weeks of May. No wonder many of
them are turning their attention to the
merits of our vicinity.
Several new arrivals are to be mention
ed since your last issue: Mr.. Ed. ADDER
son and family, of Galesburg, H., have
purchased 80 acres in section l and also
an acre lot in the village and have erect

reside. Other arrivals are ]. G. Rose

ranch south of town, and Messrs. Jack
son and Avery, homesteaders, who have
moved onto their claims southwest of
town. We extend a hearty welcome to
them all.
We hear that Mrs John Egan had her
arm broken by being thrown from her

Washington's birthday was observed
by our literary friends, Saturday evening,
in very unique manner. AS the cur

seated in her reception room. Summon

him to have the wives OF General Wash
ington's cabinet officers sent for at once,
as she had an important message for
them. After the arrival of the ladies
Mrs. Washington said: As you all
know, our husbands are absent visiting
the scenes of their earthly careers, and
have received message from the general
saying that the party would return to US
tonight. Thinking 1t would be pleasant

A SGrange Case.

A man giving the name of Howard
Moore was taken to the hospital on Tues
day afternoon. He was badly bruised all
over the body and was wretchedly dirty
and unkempt in appearance. His head
was SCARED in several places and his jaw
broken so that it was swollen badly and
dropped down fully an inch from q nor
NAL position. Moore stated that team
had run away with him on the reserva-
ton on Saturday, and that he had walked
and begged rides from tsamsters since
that evening until Tuesday, when he ar
rived in this city and was taken to the
hospital. He died within few hours
after his arrival there.
There are several queer features in the
case. Moore could talk nationally upon
any subject which was mentioned to him
with the one exception of the cause OF
his condition. Upon this topic he mum.
bled all sorts of comparatively inarticu-
late words-faltering, stammering and
mixing his statements. There is. there
fore, some doubt of its absolute truthful
ness. He is remembered by saloon men
as hanger-on during election times, al
ways out OF work and never having much
ambition or money. 1t is thought by
many that he was beaten by some Indian,
perhaps intoxicated, while on the reserva-
ton since. had he lost team as stated, he
would probably have gone in search of it
instead Of starting to walk to North Yak
ina; and, if he owned team, somebody
would have caught it and notified his
friends or acquaintances. If he had even
been driving team belonging to another
man, the latter would have cared for the
victim Of the accident.
1t is possible that Moore was maltreat-
ed by Migrants or Indians, and that the
victim had reason for telling the story
given and reserving some of the real
facts. If this be true-and a little effort
on the part of reservation officials will
determine it-somebody should be made
to suffer for the crime committed.
The body was buried from the under
taking rooms of Lombard & Horsley on
Wednesday afternoon.

Court Notes.

The long February term of the superior
court will adjourn tomorrow evening.
But little of interest has transpired dur
ing the present week, most of the time
having been consumed in equity cases.
The present term has strongly re-
sembled Chicago court in one respect
that OF divorces. The Dittendollers
were reported last week, and Judge
Graves has this week severed the tie
which doesn't bind as alleged for four
more incompatible couples, as follows
Mary Alice Ryan VS.. A. w. Ryan; Caro-
line Rogers vs. Simeon Rogers; Samuel
A. Eldridge VS.. Mary Eldridge, and John
w. Wilson VS.. Frances Wilson.
In the Boots Feamster case Attorney
Snively this week argued for an arrest OF
judgment, new trial being desired.
Judge Graves would not permit the sec
ond trial, but granted the prisoner his
liberty on the ground that the informa-
ton filed did not contain sufficient facts
to constitute the crime charged. Prose-
cutor Englehart and Jones 4 Newman
have notified defendants attorney that
an appeal has been taken, and the cause
will probably come on for hearing in the
supreme court in May. Feamster is now
in Ellensburg, where he will remain
for few days-ultimately returning for a
short time and then leaving for a visit
with his sister in Baker City, Oregon.
The Jap Yokohama filed, by his attor-
neys, Whitson & Parker and ii. J. Snive-
ly and Fred Miller, a motion for a new
trial in the case brought against him by
Ling Hung, Chinaman; but the court
over-ruled the motion and the case stands
in the celestial's favor, he having been
given judgment of 1888.

REV. j. D. BOTKIN.

According to previous announce.
ment, Rev. j. d. Botkin spoke in
this city, last Friday afternoon, on
"The Problem of the Unemployed. "
For various reasons, the audience
which greeted him was very small.
The main reason Was that the
farmers were forced to put in every
moment possible in making hay, as
the rains have retarded that work
Another reason is that the bills ad-
vestising the meeting were torn
down. But, that is past, and can
not be helped, and those who failed
to attend were the losers, for the
address was one of the best politi-
cal speeches ever delivered in this
city. This is the verdict of those
who heard him. We shall not un.
dertake to publish report OF the
speech, but will say to our readers
that Rev. Botkin will, in all proba-
bility, visit US again some time this
fall, and give the people another
opportunity TO hear him upon the
same subject. There is no doubt
that he will have large audience
when he comes again.
Rev. Botkin was in a railroad
wreck on the Gulf road few
days previous to his visit to Gar
nett, aud narrowly escaped with his
life. He was "a little the worse for
wear" but in good spirits. He has
travelled over good portion Ct the
state during the past few months,
and says there is no doubt that the
Peoples party is rapidly gaining in
numbers. lie is jubilant over the
future prospects of the party.
