AN INSANE DEED. D..

A Crazy Man Caused Sensation Among
the Girls.
A most sensational attempt at MUIR
der occurred last night in the dining
room of the "Girls' Directory,"a chari-
table institution, conducted by the
Sisters of Mercy in the old Reid resi-
dence, says the Oregonian, in which
one of the inmates of the house, Miss
AngiesMcGregor, came very nearly be.
ing killed by Baylor Childs, crazy
fellow who was sort of servant about
the directory.
At o'clock last night, as seven of
the young girls, who are now staying
at the home, were sitting in the dining
room eating supper, Childs, wild-eyed
and fourishing pistol, came rushing
into the room, and before they realized
what had happened, he began blazing
away into their midst. An indescrib-
able panic followed. The terrified
girls rushed frantically about the room,
blindly seeking avenues of escape, and
screaming and shrieking in their
fright. The room was filled with
smoke, and the reports of Child's
pistol made the scene more confusing.
After Child's had emptied his pistol,
he fed from the building and rushed
to the police station, where he asked
to be locked up, stating that he had
killed girl at the Directory. Childs
showed every indication of being
madman, and gave as a reason foi his
rash deed that the girl had hypnotized
him, and his only hope of escaping
from her influen ce was to kill her.

Resolutions OF Coincidence.

The following preamble and resolu-
tions were adopted by Wasco Tribe,
No. 16, 1. o. r. NJ. at the last regular
council, held at the wigwam on the
sleep of the 18th Sun, Beaver Moon,
G. S. D. 405:
WHEREAS, The great spirit has re.
moved from our reservation TO the
Happy Hunting Grounds above our be-
loved brother, W. Cederson; therefore
be it
Resolved, That in the sudden man
ner in which the inscrutable degree OF
the Mishe Manitou was carried out in
the removal of our brother, gave US a
thrill of horror, and appeared as
though giant tree in the forest of
life-while in the vigor of spring-had
been stricken down and had made
vacancy which it would be difficult to
fill.
Resolved, That in the death of
Brother Cederson the community has
lost an upright neighbor, the state
good and loyal citizen, and our tribe
an earnest and Jealous member.
Resolved, That.to his afflicted rela-
tives we extend our heartfelt sympathy,
and, while we mourn with them the
loss of brother and an exemplary
man, we must bow in resignation to
the fiat OF the Great Spirit, who orders
the sunshine and the rain, the stormy
blasts of winter and the balmy breezes
of summer.
Resolved, That our charter be
draped in mourning for thirty days.
and that copy of these resolutions be
furnished the city papers, also, the
family of the deceased, and that they
be spread upon the speaking papers of
the tribe as part of the proceedings of
this council.
Respectfully submitted in F. F. and

Society Event of the Season.

Those who love good music artistic.
ally rendered by competent musicians,
will be pleased to learn that Rabag.
liatti's original Spanish Students will
appear at the Vogt opera house Friday
evening, Nov. 9th. The concert to
be rendered on this occasion will con-
sist of the latest operetic and ballad
successes, together with the rendition
of number of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
Beside the regular concert numbers
the program will include vocal
solos by the well-known artist, Miss
Sousi Leahman, skirt dancing by the
clever little Addie Favart, aptly
termed the Australian Wonder" for
her sprightly style and inimitable
ways. Among the instrumental solo
lists are Signer Barcarrotte, the cele-
brated cello soloist, and Frances Ar
mould, saxaphone soloist and pianist,
are especially worthy of mention.
The Spanish Students lately closed a
most successful engagement of five
weeks at the Orpheum. San Fran
cisco's leading vaudeville theater.
They have so far during their tour
throughout the northwest met with
nothing but highest praise from both
press and public. An evening spent
in listening to the Spanish Students is
an evening of profitable pleasure and
remembrance.

This dispatch, dated at The Dalles,
Nov. 18th. appeared in the Oregonian:
sOne of the results of McKinley's
election in this locality is seen in the
voluntary raising by many sheep own
ers of herders' wages. Nearly all the
herders who have hired out since the
election have done SO at an advance of
S5 month over the wages paid last
winter. The local wool market is
feeling the stimulus of expected tariff
legislation, and wool is being sold from
8 to 81 cents pound. Many producers
are waiting for higher price,"
We sincerely hope these statements
are the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth, but must admit
we are somewhat skeptical. Careful
inquiry fails to discover any sheep
owner who has raised his herder's
wages or an account Of any wool that
has been sold for more than cents.
While we would like to see herders
get better wages and sheep men get
20 cents a pound for their wool, we
cannot see the sense of misrepresenting
facts and thus misleading people. ..:

Winter Amusements.

Since the days have narrowed down
about to their minimum and the
season of darkness has stretched out
over about 16 hours of the "a, people
are beginning to cast about for some
sort of amusement during the long
evenings. Many look to secret
societies as a means of furnishing such
entertainment, and on this account
most of the fraternal orders prepare
special programs during the winter
months. This is one of the special
features OF the Degree of Honor, and
Wednesday was its first specially long
session for many months. The Fern
Leaf" the seml-monthly lodge paper,
was read by Miss Schooling, and a
pleasant literary and musical program
was rendered, followed by refresh
ments supplied-by Mrs. Young aud Mr..

A Buck Entered Town. and Several Citi-
zens Went Cunning.
A deer hunt that ended in killing a
fine spike buck in the heart of Cor
Wallis, says the Times, was one Of the
incidents of yesterday morning. 1t all
happened before most of the inhabi-
tants had breakfasted, and for that
reason there were but few eye wit
nesses to the excitement. John Simp-
son, the one who formerly hailed from
Soap Creek, was the principal hunter.
He lives in the vicinity of the Holgate
home, and had been down to the
butcher shop for steak for breakfast.
AS he passed the court house he saw
walking around in the snow fine
young spike deer. OF course the
thought of venison steak fitted
through his mind, and he hurried
home for a shooting iron. He called
for his revolver, but Mrs. Simpson
feared from his excited manner that

Another Pioneer Gone.

AT $50 Wednesday Ray w. Gran

Crandall, in this city. aged 81 years.
Mr.. Crandall was born in New York
state on June "a, 1929, and when a
young man moved TO Bonbo, Wis,
where he was married to Miss Jane
M. Huyck. Attracted by the possi-
bilities of the new west, he and Mis.
Crandall started for the sunset land in
the fall of 1852. Arriving at Salt Lake
in the early winter, they remained
there until the spring Of 1853, when
they crossed over into CALIFORNIA;; maxi
ing that state their home until 1856,
when they came to Oregon, locating at
Silverton. In 1863 they came to The
Dalles, and this has been their home
until death called them to the home
beyond, Mrs. Crandall having died in
March of last yrar. Since last July
Mr.. Crandall has been confined to the
house with stomach trouble, and for
several months past had recognized
that his recovery was impossible. Ac-
cepting the inevitable, he was recon-
ciled to his fate, and awaited patiently
the time when the final separation
should come. He leaves two children,

During 33 years of residence in this

his death The Dalles loses one of its
earliest pioneers and most highly re-
spected citizens.

The Popular Vote.

Until the official count has been COM
pleted in all the states it will be i'm.
possible to learn the exact figures Of
the popular vote in the recent election.
it is thought that upwards of 13,0O0,-
600, votes were cast. Four years ago
it was l2,110,366, and Cieyeland's
popular vote was 3s0,S over that of
Mr.. Harrison. Notwithstanding that
Cleveland was elected in 1892 by o
large majority of the popular vote and
in the electoral college, the Courier
Journal admits that the recent election
Mr.. Bryan received more popular
votes than did Mr.. Cleveland in 1892.
Figuring on the latest returns, Mr..
Bryan has about IFS electoral votes.
This is 80 more than Mr.. Harrison
captured in 1892, and seven more than
Mr.. Cleveland received in 1888.

Astrologer Astor Casts Dismal Horoscope
and Predicts Dire Happenings.

Astrologer Astor Casts q Dismal Horoscope
and Predicts Dire Happenings.
The days when the imaginations OF
prophets" were needed have passed,
still there are men who will prophesy,
and their pretended visions OF the
future furnish amusement If nothing
else. Below are some of Astrologer
Astor's predictions, which are given
space simply as curiosities, not that we
place any credence in his forbodings:
The coming winter will be the most
severe since 1873, and colder than can
be recalled by the oldest inhabitant;
especially will the South and West
| suffer in this respect. There will be
heavy rain and snow and hailstones of
remarkable size, as well as several
meteors that will fall.
Violent storms are to come, one fol-
lowing another. Tidal waves will oc-
cur several times during the winter,
| and the Atlantic coast will suffer from
the ravages of the sea. More than one
of the great Atlantic liners will sail
their last voyage, and never in the
history of shipping will be recorded
such frightful loss of life and property.
Fierce fires and conflagrations will ex-
tend throughout the land and loss of
life from this cause will be APPALLING.
There will be heavy failures in trade,
especially among insurance companies.
Tornadoes and explosions will occur,
and again will the S5uth and West
suffer severely.
November will be the phenomenal |
month of the year. The centering of |
the majority of planets in the mystic |
and accursed sign Scorpio, will pro-
duce startling changes, which will be.
gin directly after the lunation of the
moon.
England is to mourn the death Of her
noble queen, who will not survive the
winter, and the passing away of this
wonderful woman will mark the great
est change in the annals of the Eng
lish parliament since the days of King
George Ill.
War will be rampant. The downfall
of Spain and the freedom of Cuba are
to come. Turkey will be disposed of
and Russia will assume dictatorial
front, with the result that the English
government will lose some of its valua-
BILE possessions.
There will be more unrest among the
great foreign powers than for many
years. Deaths OF prominent people
will occur. and under peculiar circum-
stances. Daring robberies will take
place, and there will be an avalanche
of crime of shocking and heinous
nature. During this month stocks will
advance rapidly, and commodities of
Iii kinds will command higher prices.
but will recede again and trade will
not revive until after April, 1897.
