first temperance meeting ever held III inns
city. and there were present large num-
Der of scientific men, statesmen ana phy-
sicians. The facts brought out were con-
vincing of the extent of the evil OF intem-
perance, and it is probable the movement
will result in the diminuti0n. as far as
possible. of the vice of alcoholism, whleb
Is degrading and devitalizing the classes.
Much comment has been raised by the
fact that President DiaZ lent the sane
ton of his presence to the meeting, but

ceedingy temperate habits, even III the
use of tobacco.

A RECIPROCAL AGREEMENT.

washington, June B.-Secretary OF
State Olney and Senior Romero, minister
for Mexico, have signed an agreement
whereby the troops of either the United
States or Mexico may cross the boundary
line in pursuit of hostile Indians. This
is the first time the two governments have
entered into such an agreement since the
last, expiring in 1890. The occasion for
this new arrangement is found in the oper-
atoms on the border of Kids" band of
Indians. Now that the United States
troops may continue on hot trail 1t is
hoped that they will make short work of
this notorious outlaw.

POLITICS AND PISTOLS.

Two Corvallis youths, Billy Harmon and
Billy Williams, indulging over-abundantly
in non temperance drinks, had an encounter
with Nightwatchman Emrick early Satur-
day morning, and few moments later were
converting with friends from behind the bars
of the city Jail. About O'Clock Chief Wells
started with them to the city hall, and took
them into Egiin's stable to let them brush
up bit before appearing before his honor,
Judge Porter. The chief engaged in dis
cussion oe the money question and Harmon,
not being at all interested in the ''crime of
49," walked off down 3rd street. Chief
Wells discovered him when he had put
about a. block between him self and the
money debate, and started in pursuit. The
chief told Hannon to stop. Billy did not
reply, but he ran l6 feet to the chiefs L,
and thought he was great enough and power
fui enough TO maintain that ratio, without
the aid or consent Of any other powers. The
chief believes in silver at l6 to l, but free
prisoners going al that rate seemed out
accord with the Hatural fitness OF things. He
drew his revolver and fired thtec shots at
tbs eseapef but the traveiing Billy, with the
fear Of that awful monetary argument in his
heart, only looked back to sing, Fly, Birdie,
Fiy''-and set Bird the example. By this
time the other prisoner, Williams, secured
his horse that was in the livery stable and
mounting it, rode out of town. Harmon
kept on till he found good hiding place in
the north end OF town, and the chief. bor-
rowing shot gun, surrounded him. When
the officer had searched the blackberry and
rose bushes, looked down the well and up the
due, Harmon came out and surrendered on
condition that he be fined or hanged, but not
tortured with the "crime of 49," His terms
were agreed to, and pleading guilty to disor-
derly conduct was fned $40 by Judge Porter.
The chief still wants Billy Williams, but
the demand SO far exceeds the supply and
Williams refuses to circulate in town,
