INDIAN SKULLS.
Occupation of an Oregon Man and the Pur
pose Of His Work,

Occupation OF an oregon Man and the Fur
pose of His Work.
From the San Francisco Call.
About five and forty miles below
Portland, on the Oregon side OF
the Columbia, the broad expanse
Of water here flows without a
ripple, and is deep and as still as
death. The bank rises high above
the waters level, and stretches
away back to the timber line.
Just above this point is "Coffin
Rock" which was the starting
place to "the happy hunting
ground" OF the various Oregon
tribes Of Indians, but the very high
water OF 1862 swept Coffin Rock of
all its deposits to the point below.
1t is a lonely place, without sound,
save the call of the cricket in the
grass, or the boot Of the screech
owl nestled in the adjacent timber.
Here the overlooking waters Of
nearly half a century ago lodged
the remains of many tribes, high
and dry, literally moving the last
resting place OF their dead, for no
Pacific coast tribe ever buried their
dead below the surface Of the earth.
Some hedged them about with
rocks, above the ground, leaving
the face upward and exposed.
Others put a bark covering owe
them, while others were suspended
from limbs or left in the forks of
trees. Time has robbed every form
Of its substance, and left only the
whitened bones and bleached
skulls.
Students, dentists and physicians
are eager to secure these trophies
for articulation. So great is the
demand that at least one man has
for years followed the hazardous
business OF gathering these skulls
for the market. 1t is risky, for
the few remaining Indians still
keep vigil over the remains of
their dead, and to be caught in the
act would mean a prisoner in the
recesses of the neighboring noun
tains, followed by death of slow
torture, for no quarter or mercy
would be shown the victim. Still,
knowing this, Howard Clause, a
rccluse, nightly risks his life to
gather these grinning, whitened
skulls, and every now and then a
box of large and small skulls is
shipped from Portland, Ore, to the
various noted seats of medical and
dental learning in the east.

SORE THROAT QUICKLY CURED

Not long ago in speaking of sore
throat, and the difficulty frequently
experienced in curing it. Mr.. J. E.
Thomas, of Uniondale, Pa, told how
he had often cured it in his family.

frequently used Chamberlain's Pain
Balm in my family for sore throat
and it has effected a speedy cure in
every instance. 1 would not think of
getting along in my home without
it," Pain Balm also cures Rheuma
tism, sprains and bruises. For sale

Last Rallies.

The last rally of the Citizens
ticket on Alamo plaza was attend
ed by thousands, and speeches by
R. l.. Summerlin, G. S. Robinson,
w. A. Wurzbach and others were
made. The torchlight proce ssion,
with three bands, had the effect OF
attracting a large portion Of the
procession that followed the free
silver headers to Beethoven hall,
where a meeting took place. Both
sides had very large crowds,
though the open air meeting on
the plaza was much the largest.

Miss Minerd Says She Saw Him Kill
Delaney.
POughkeepsie, n. Y, Nov. 3.-ThOs.
Manchester, % years old, a member
of the Ninteenth Separate Company,
National Guard, of POughkeepsie,w was
arrested this morning, charged with
the murder of Martin Delaney in this
city last night. The arrest was made
on the confession of Edna Minerd,
nineteen-year-old girl, who was with
Manchester when he killed Delaney.
Miss Minerd says that she and Man
chester walked up the Hdye park road
for a strOol last evening. In the out
skirts of the city they sat down by
the roadside, near a stone wall. Sew
eral stones were thrown from the
other side of the wall, and Manches-
ter drew a revolver and fired in the
| air. Then she heard voices and a
| man jumped up on the wall and threw
a stone at the couple. Miss Minerd
said it narrowly missed hitting her.
At this Manchester fired directly at
the man, who was not more than five
feet from him. and the latter fell from
the wall dead.

Outsiders Who Insure Royalty.

A peculiar and little known
branch of insurance is that indulg-
ed in by private persons who in
sure the lives OF royalties for their
own benefit. From the standpoint
OF the Individual it is, of course,
pure speculation.
This Is how it is done: You,
gentle reader, wish to insure the
Prince of Wales 1--WE will say for
the sum of $4,000. You will fill up
q proposal form for that amount in
the name Of III. r. III. Albert Ed
ward, Prince Of Wales, Duke of
Cornwall" etc., and forward IL to a
company which accepts this kind
of insurance. All companies do
not issue policies on royalties lives
to private individuals, but many
In quite the first rank do.
On receipt Of your proposal the
company will inform you Of the
rate per cent at which the prem.
ium will be charged; then, il you
are willing to pay this rate, which
is a fairly high one, q policy will
be issued in the usual way.
Although there are no statistics
on the subject, and accuracy OF
statement is therefore impossible
1t is quite probable that the life Of
Queen Victoria is insured hund
reds OF times in this manner. The
same thing is true, to modified
extent, of most OF the other mem
bers Of the royal family.
The Duke OF Cambridge, for in
stance, has been for the past q
years favorile "suhject" with in
surance spectators. The reason
Is obvious; but the rate is, as may
be supposed, very high. -Bostor

London, Eng, Nov. "a dispatch to
the Pail Mall Gazette" from Copen-
hagen this afternoon, referring to the
enormous sums which are being ex-
pended by the Danish government up
on the fertilization of Copenhagen,
says that this work is taken in pur-
suance of a secret understanding be-
tween Russia and France. by which
Russia guarantees the integrity of
Denmark, and, should a favorable oc-
casiOn arise, will insist on part of
SchleSwig-H Olstein, inhabited by
Danes, being restored to Denmark in
case a plebiscite OF the inhabitants ex-
presses their desire for this.
On the other hand, Denmark under
takes, should Russia be engaged in
war, to place at her disposal the har-
bOrs, forts and shipbuilding yards of
Copenhagen, which, as base of op-
eratiOns against North Germany, are
worth over 100000 men.
The Berlin correspondent of the Dali
ly News says he is able to confirm the
statement made by the Hamburger
Nachrichten that n written neutrality
treaty between Russia and Germany
did exist from 1884 to 1890.
