AS for the question of Cuba. the
duty OF Congress must depend
largely upou facts which will be

struggling TO throw of the Spanish

Her ship Came In.

Miss Maggie Hamilton, of Spokane,
who for two years has been employed in
the Stockholm dance hall, has received
word from San Francisco stating that
her uncle who died few weeks ago, left
her large estate, valued at $50, ,0G0.
She has announced her intention to be-
trip to Europe. She will resume her
true name of Maggie Mcfarland, which
she discarded when she ran away from
her home at Grand Junction, Iowa.
The news of her good fortune came just
as Mayor Belts order to close the dance
halls of the city was causing most of the
women employees to wonder how they
were to live through the hard winter.

DELEGATES looked Up.

Last nights meeting of the board of
fire delegates was entirely too quiet, for
a while. It was SO quiet that some one
thinking there was nobody up stairs
locked the gate in the yard near the foot
of the stairway. When the meeting ad-
journed, the delegates found they were
locked IN, and as the board fence is
about fourteen feet high, they were ap-
parently in for good. When this dis
covery was made things were not go
quiet. and from the amount of yelling
done. the impression was created that

Council Meeting Last Night.

The city council met last night, pur-
suant to adjournment; present the
mayor, recorder and all the councilmen
except Ross.
It was expected that some proposition
would be made by our own and other
electric light companies for furnishing
arc lights for the city, but the proposi-
tion did not materialize. Councilman
Nolan explained the situation at some
length, saying, among other things, that
he did not think there was room here
for two electric light companies, and he
preferred doing business with the pres
ent company, if it could be done. He
thought there was, or if not there ought
to be, some way of compelling the COM
pany to furnish incandescent lights to
the city at the same rate they were fur
nished to private citizens, and moved
that a committee of three be appointed
to examine into the question. Council
man Thompson seconded the motion.
He agreed with Mr.. Nolan, only sug-
gesting that if the present company
would not furnish the lights that some
other company probably would. The
motion was carried, and the mayor ap-
pointed as such committee Councilmen
Nolan, Kuck and Champlin.
A petition was fled by J. G. Baldwin
asking for deed from the city to him
to property lying between his buildings
Mr.. Baldwin claims to have bought the
property long before the city acquired
title, thirty years or more ago. This
petition was presented once before, and
was refused by the council, it being
claimed by it that the water front be-
longed to the city. It was referred to
the judiciary com mittee.
The question of impounding stock
running at large in the city limits again
came up, and after considerable dis
cussion as to not interfering with stock
running IN the pines or portions of the
city limits where they did not annoy
anyone, it was orderded that the ordi-
nance be enforced, but that the matter
be referred to committee on streets and
public property to fix the limits in which
stock may not run at large.
1t appearing that there were few
minor changes desires in the charter
notably one fixing and defining the
western boundary which now runs dowr
to and includes Klindt's place. it was OF
motion ordered that a committee con
sisting of the mayor and three council
be appointed. to suggest any correction
needed, with power to call in three tax
payers to assist them il deemed neces
sary, and Thompson Nolan and John
were appointed such committee.
The matter of providing cart an,
hose for the district in the pines wa
brought up, and referred to the regula
} committee with power to act.
There being no further business, tn
, council adjourned.

SUDDEN DEATH OF G. w. sTAvER
Expired at His Store in Portland Yes
teTdaY.

With but gasp, without the slightest
warning that the grim messenger with
his dread summons had come to him,
George W. Staver, head of the widely
known agricultural implement house of
g. W. Staver & Co., reeled in his chair
yesterday morning and fell over dead.
Death was instantaneous.
Shortly after s O'Clock Mr.. Staver
reached the store at 241 Front street,
and, as was his usual custom in begin
hing the days business, commenced the
opening and examining of his mail. He
had greeted M. B. McFaul, the book
keeper, with CHEEKY ''good morning."
and seemed to be in excellent health
and spirits.
A half hour had passed, Mr.. Staver
being still occupied with his correspond
contained in one of the letters caused
him to turn and consult Mr.. McFaul.
The latter went to his employers desk.
and together the two were discussing
the proposition broached in the letter,
when suddenly Mr.. Stayer, with quick
gasp and catching of his breath, let his
head fall backward and before the hook
keeper could selze him had sank from
the chair to the floor, resting in sitting
posture.
Mr.. Staver in life was a very heavy
man, his weight being 21O pounds.
CoGnizant of his inability to lift the
| form of the stricken merchant alone,
McFaul ran into the store and sum-
moned Mr.. Staver's brother, Samuel
| Staver, to his assistance. Together the
two men raised the dying man, laying
him upon his back upon a desk. Mr..
McFaul then hurried to the telephone
and rang for DIR. Rockey. The physi-
clan was not in. but the call was ans
wered by DIR. Dutro, occupying offices
with DIR. Rockey, it being but few mo-
ments after Mr.. Staver was stricken that
the physician was on the scene.
His services were not required, how
ever, for Mr.. Staver was beyond all
earthly sId. He was dead. The cause
is supposed to have been aooplexy. Un-
dertaker Holman was notified, and the
body removed to the home, corner
Twelfth and Clay streets.
George w. Staver was a man of about
65 years, and has been leading spirit
in Portland mercantile life since the
firm of Staver & Walker commenced
business here in the early '80s. He
leaves wife, two daughters and sor
to mourn his sudden taking off. The
son, John Staver, is engaged in
business in San Francisco. Miss Nellie
Staver lives at home. The. othel
daughter. Ida, is now Mrs. Molding, o
Chicago.
