Frencn Louis, Fate.

Last monday the startling intelligence
was brought to Canyon, says the News,
that the lifeless body of Louis Adams, or
"French Louis" had been discovered on
his ranch in Silvies valley, just across
the line in Harney county. Sunday
about noon the boys of the Pacific Live
stock Co. were riding after cattle, when
they saw the Frenchman's team tied to
the fence with the harness on, and a
broken double-tree still attached to the
harness. Further search across the
meadow revealed the mans lifeless body,
with his neck broken. 1t was thought
that his team ran away with the wagon
and that he was killed by being thrown
off as they crossed the irrigating ditch.
Louis quit herding sheep come years
ago, and with the money that ne had ac-
cumulated by industry and thrift he
purchased the tract of land on Silvies
river known as the "Buccaroo ranch"
Louis lived on his featile acres and made
his home there until the time of his
death. French Louis was a peculiar
character while be lived. He was kind
to those around him, and was never
known to oppress the poor. In all
kindness to his memory. the News re-
lates that in life he loved the flowing
bowl, and tells the following incident:
On one occasion, Louis was giving an
exhibition OF fre-eating. He had a
saucer full of brandy to which he had
touched match, and it was blazing i'm
mensely while he partook of the blazes
by the. spoonful, when some fellow
poured kerosene into the saucer while
the fire wizard was looking in another
direction, and the next spoonful burned
his mouth and broke up the show. This
was merely an incident in the life of the
poor fellow, but it points to his socia-
bility in this life.

nett. Mr.. George Ernest Stewart was
called for and recited "Katle Lee and
Willie Gray in his usual clever man
ner. He was also requested to give his
mirtn- provoking reading, entitled "Mrs.
Byrde and the Masons," which was
highly appreciated by the audience.
The church choir then rendered vocal
selection, and Rev. Skaggs closed the
program with few well-chosen remarks,
after which refreshments were an
nounced in the basement of the church,
whittier the audience retired to enjoy a
bountiful luncheon and to indulge in
pleasant social intercourse, which con-
tinued Tor something over an hour. Ev-
eryone seemed to be of the opinion that
it was an evening well spent, and high
ly testimonial of the esteem in which
Rev. Skaggs and family are held by the
citizens of The Dalles.

Some months ago We sent one of our
pianos to Spokane, Wash. The party
who ordered it became involved in finan-
cial difficulties and was unable to pur-
chase it. We then transferred it to Mr..
1. G. Nickelsen of The Dalles, who
has been storing it for us during the last
few months. We do not wish the piano
re-shipped to US because that will in
volve considerable expense of freights.
We are therefore willing to sell the
piano actually below cost. The piano is
the best we manufacture, listed in our
catalogue at 81, 200, retail price $64O.
We offer it, with stool, scarf and lamp,
to anyone who will buy within the next
thirty days, for $275. This is an oppor-
tunity to get firet-class piano at abso-
lutely less than cost. Everyone who in
tends to buy piano any time at all,
ought to see this instrument and con-
slider this offer before making a pur-
chase. The piano can be seen at 1. G..
Nickelsen's at any time. We have au-
thorized Mr.. Nickelsen to accept this
price for it.

POCATELLO, Idaho, Feb S.--Charles
T. Palmer of Chicago, president Of the
American Falls Land, Irrigation and
Power company, made application at
Boise several weeks ago to reclaim
109, $50 acres of desert land under the
Carey act. State Engineer Mills has
reported unfavorably and the board
of land commissioners have rejected
the application, all papers being re-
turned. Palmers proposition was to
pump water out of Snake river just
above the American falls to height of
1914 feet, and to construct canal sew
enty-five miles in length through the
land to be irrigated, the capacity Of
the canal to be 300 cubic feet per sec
ond. The state engineers report sub
mitted to the board says that the
scheme is not feasible; that the capac-
ity of the canal is not sufficient to
irrigate the area of land desired in the
application, and that the estimated
cost is entirely inadequate TO do the
work proposed The land in question
is known as the Snake River desert,
and is of splendid quality. Palmer has
been located in this city for the past
two months, and has shown remark
able energy in disposing of some four
or five hundred lots in town site re-
Gently plated at American Falls. AS
no money has been sunk in the enter
prise a great many purchasers of lots
fear that the scheme may fall through.
Palmer left for the east this week.

RIGHTS OF CHINESE.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. S.-Judge
Reeve. the solicitor Of the treasury. has
held that a Chinese laborer who has
right under the law to remain dn the
United States and return to China tenn
porarily, is debarred from bringing his
wife with him on again returning TO
this country. This decision is based
upon the fact that no Chinan1an can
acquire citizenship in the United States,
but he is held to be simply a sojourner
and hence the law inhibiting the land
ing of Chinese must apply to the case
under consideration.
