A Sad Sight.

Says the Walla Walla Union
Those in the court room yester-
day afternoon witnessed a very
pitiable sight. An old pioneer, j
Driver, who after working a life
time upon his farm, making it one
of the best places in the valley, and
when to old to properly look after
it turned it over to his only daugb-
ter and her husband, was brought
before the bar upon the merest
pretext, to answer to the charge Of
insanity.
The poor old man stood the test
well and was discharged, but after
the strain was over and the thought
that his only child was a witness
against him, completely broke him
down, and he left the room in tears
1t was a sad sight, and one we
never want to see again.

This shows the esteem in which
that remedy is held where it has

Those who never read the adver-
tisements in their newspaper miss
more than they presume. Jonath-
an Kenison, Of Bolan, Worth Co.,
Iowa, who had been troubled with
rheumatism in his back, arms and
shoulder, read an item in his pa
per about how a prominent Ger
man citizen of Ft. Madison had
been cured. He procured the Same
medicine, and to use his own words:
''It cured me right up" He also
says: A neighbor and his wife
were both sick in bed with rheu-
matism. Their boy was over to
my house and said they were SO
bad that he had to do the cooking.

for the erection of the plant this
season, but the proposition remains
open, provided the time is extended
to the fall of 1896. At meeting
of the local promotion company,
that has charge of the matter, held
last night, it was decided to 60 to

few days, work will be commenced

Chicago, July PA gain of 49su4sac for
wheat IN a single session was something
out of the ordinary. This was the record
for to-day in that cereal. Right at the
close a second bulge took place, and whilst
it was equally rapid as the early one, il
was, in a measure, looked for, ANA occa-
stoned less speculation Wheat was wanted
this morning at afc advance; the opening
quotation showing that appreciation un-
der the influence of firmer cables than
were expected and the light winter wheat
movement. When the early support was
over the market assumed a quieter appear
ance, but the undertone was strong, and
IL took but little buying to start the pan
icky condition. September wheat opened
from 6Sl4c to 6Si2c, advanced to 72i2c and
closed at I2iac-ss04$4c higher than yes
terday. Cash wheat was &c higher than
yesterday; nominal, close being Acc high
er.
Corn drew its firmuess from wheat, but
at no point in the session gave evidence of
breaking the bounds of moderation. The
trade was local and sCalping, and opera
tons, whilst perfectly willing TO help
along and advance, were nevertheless de-
TERED by the big crop prospects. Scptcm-
Der corn opened from flAc to 4l1.c, adj
vanced to 443sc and closed at 4i%ic-12@9sc
higher than yesterday. Cash corn sold at
&c decline, but tirmed later ana closed at
steady prices.
Oats were in their usual dull and unin-
teresing state. The excitement in wheat
overshadowed everything else and only
the habitual traders in oats had anything
to do with that market
Provisions were quiet. There was a fair
foreign demand; September pork closed

BOLD BURGLARS
Enter the Residence of Mir. Stanley and
 Help Themselves.

Last night burglars broke into the residence of Mir. Frank A. Stanley and stole number of valuable arti- cles. The thieves effected an entrance into the house by breaking out a Window into the hall and then crawl ing through a transome into the bed rooms, while the owners of the house were away from home. Everything in the residence was turned upside do wli by the thieves in their search for articles of value. They evidently were well acquainted with the habits of Mir. Stanley and his wife, for they eeemed to have taken their time and felt no approximations about being Sdlsturbed. The silverware. best shoes and clothing and quantity of new goods were piled up in q room ready for emoval, but, unfortunately for the burglars, Mir. and Mrs Stanley returned home at an earlier hour than usual and the thieves had to run with only a few goods such as they could conveniently carry. Mrs. Stanley lost q diamond necklace and Nr. Stanley is out pair of shoes and his best wearing apparel. The burglars would havecarried off much

Little in Congress.

The address of Congressman Little on the Indian appropriation bill, is said to have been masterly effort, and at once raised him in the estima- tion of his colleagues to one of the leaders i'll Congress. Among other things he said:
 In this contest for human rights and the maintenance of the plghtcd faith of the Government toward a defenseless people we are met not only with the land harons of the In- dian country and their paid agents, with islander and and charges of conspiracy against senators aud members of this House, but even the Secretary of the Interior does not escape the foul islanders of these paid tools of oppression who rob and corrupt theil. own people and declare their purpose and ability to corrupt this honorable body. They come here disgraced by their own conduct at home and now further disgrace themselves by openly slandering many of the best men in the country They also attack the authors of the territorial bill-Senator Berry and myself-but because it seeks to re- deem to the Indians their inheritance and arrest the progress of he greed and avarice that is bringing two thirds of the nation to penury and want, although they are the rightful owners of the richest country in the West. l will only say: No rogue ever felt the halter drawn with good opinion of the law
