THE SEWING MACHINE TRICK
A Smooth SwindIer Brought Before
the Baker City Court.

A Smooth SwindIer Brought Before
the Baker City Court.
A Swindler, giving the name of Dan
Harrington, was on trial before the cir
cult court of Baker county last Friday for
working the Sewing machine gamep at
Huntington. His mode of operating,
which was not new by any means, was as
follows;
He would call at private residence,
ask If they had q sewing machine and
the name Of it, if they had one. If they
had one he would represent that he was
travelling agent for that particular make
and was instructed TO examine all ma
chimes of that kind and report as to their
condition, and unless some new part had
to be supplied he was TO do all repairing
free, as he was already on salary. He
would then ask to see the machine, and
when the lady of the house had her back
turned he would place piece Of broken
watch spring in some part OF the machine
she was unacquainted with and on her
return would exhibit the broken spring
and declare that il it was not immediate
ly replaced, it would cause very great
injury to the machine. He usually sized
up his victims and charged accordingly
from $3.50 to $500. II he was watched
too closely he insisted that he had to take
that part of the machine to the hotel
where his tools were. If not be simply
put the machine together, oiled it, col
lected his fec and departed. An exam
inatfon was made OF one or two machines
in which he claimed the spring was
broken and it was ascertalned that there
was no spring there at all, hence his
arrest,

THE HON. MARTIN QUINN.


He Goes to Chicago to Witness the
Convention Proceedings.
During the brief halt at La Graude a
Chronicle reporter found opportunity to
ascertain Mr.. Quinn's views in regard to
the political outlook. He said he thought
either Teller or Sibley would be an ideal
candidate as the especial champion Of
the cause, of silver, and also believed that
either one Of them would receive united
support of the populists and the free
silver democratic Of the west. But he
does n9t believe that the democrats
as party will take up either Teller or
Sihley.
"'fhe matter Of availability and vote.
getting capacity is one of the principal
considerations in connection with presi-
Dental candidate" said Mr.. Quinn,
land for that reason Bland is moro
logical candidate than either of tho two
fret mentioned
Ia regard to the likelihood OF unity OF
the populists and silver forces in the ma
tional campaign, Mr.. Quinn had nothing
to make public beyond what might be in
ferred from the statement that, recent
events are bringing the democrats and
populists u uch nearer together than they
ever were before"
Mr.. Quinn gives not the slightest evil
dence Of disappointment over the cleo
tion results, and said that within two
hours after it was over bis laundry wagon
was ready to resume its accustomed
rounds.

NEW CHURCH DOCTRINE.
Rev. David Gives an Outline of tn
SWedenborpian Faith

Rev. David Gives an Outline of the
SWedenborgian Faith.
Rev. j. s. David, the noted lecturer
gives the following summary Of the
Swedenborgian faith:
l. God is one. In Him ia trinity.
not OF persons, but OF principles, which
are, essential divinity, divine humanity
and divine proceeding life, called in
symbolic language, Father. Son and
holy Spirit. These are reflected in man
as soul, body and operative energy, for
man is an image OF God.
2. The Lord took upon Himself our
nature with all its hereditary tendencies
and through that suffered temptations,
overcame the power OF the hells, de-
llvered man from their dominion and
opened to him the gates OF eternal life.
In this act he also brought his human
nature into union with his divine nature
and likened man with God.
3. The sacred scriptures have a
graded meaning, the literal sense adapted
to the simplest unregenerate minds, q
spiritual sense adapted to deeper thought
and celestial sense adapted to the soul j
deepest intnitions
4. The writings OF Swedenborg un-
fold portions of the deeper meaning of
the Bible and reveal such truths as
could not have been received in darker
ago.; OF the past. Revelation is neces-
earily progressive.
D. Regeneration is gradual and
radical change. 1t is delyerance from
the dominion OF our lower nature, de.
yelopment OF the germs OF good and
truth divinity implanted from infancy,
successive opening Of the natural, spirit
ual and celestial degrees Of the mind
corresponding with the fret, second and
third heaven.
6. Salvation is affected by shuEning
evil because it is evil, and doing good
because 1t is good, at the same time
looking to the Lord alone for strength to
dc so.
2. Heaven and hell are primarily
states OF good or evil formed by the re.
peated choice OF good or evil life and
which in the other world form around
themselves glorious or hidous objects
corresponding with Themselves.
8. No church is fnality, but eyery
church has its cycle and is a steppiup.

THE BRIDGE BROKE.
Driver and Team Go to the Bottom Of
the John Day River.

the John Day River.
Last Monday Sam Grant, well-known
freighter OF Fossil, was on hia way home
from The Dalles With $500 pounds Of
freight, one wagon being loaded with
barbed wire, and, while crossing Leon
ards bridge, broke down, participating
the entire out.6t-Mr. Grant, the elk
horse team, two wagons and all-into the
raging torrent 30 feet below.
BY mere accident, several men happen
ed to be near by, and by almost super
human efforts they succeeded in rescu-
ing Mr.. Grant from bis perilous position,
more dead than alive. Three horses
were killed outright and two were 80 hor-
ribly mangled that they had to be shot.
The sixth horse was saved.
Mr.. Grant was bruised, cut up end in
jured internally, and it is considered a
miracle almost that he was not instantly
killed or drowned.
The bridge, 1t is understood, was own.
ed by NJ. A Moody, OF The Dalles. 1t
has been condemned for several years by
the bridge inspectors, and WAS consider
ed unsafe by all who were obliged to
cross it. II is not improbable that Mr..
Grant will sue for damages w. Lair
Hill, the noted lawyer and author Of
Hills Code, formerly owned this bridge,
and he sold it to parties who became In
debted to Moody, who secured mort
gage on it. The bridge has been q toll
bridge ever since it WAS built.
