HANNA is
FOUND GUILTY
Was Charged With Buying Horses That
Had Been Stolen.

PENDLEToN, Or, Feb. S.-A verdict of
'guilty as charged in the indictment,
was returned by the jury yesterday in
the case of William Hanna. Hanna was
indicted for receiving and buying fifty
two head of horses which he knew at
the time had been stolen from Peter
Nelson, an Echo stock man and shipped
them to Portland.
A peculiar feature of the case is that
zibe Morse, charged with stealing these
very horses and selling them to Hanna,
was tried and the jury failed to agree.
Now, Hanna is convicted. Morse will
be retired, and the remains Gus Hill
and Jack Ogg to be tried on the same
evidence adduced in these cases.
The circuit court has been adjourned
to February 9th, when the balance of
of the criminal cases left untried will be
taken up.

YESTERDAY
Rebels Made Stand Behind Intrench-
ments, But We're Driven Out BY
Kansas Troops Led By Colonel
Funston.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The war de-
partment today received the following
dispatch:
Manila, Feb. 8.-The situation is rap
idly improving. A reconnaissance was
made yesterday to tte south several
miles to Lagunade bay, land to the south
east eight miles, our troops driving the
struggling insurgents before them. The
troops in various directions encountered
no decided opposition. The native army
is disintegrated and the natives are re-
turning to the villages displaying white
flags.
Near Caloocan six miles north of here,
the enemy made a stand behind in
trenchments, and were charged by the
Kansas troops led by Colonel Funston.
There was clese encounter, resulting
in the rout of the enemy with heavy loss
The loss to the Kansas regiment was
Lieut.. Afford killed, and six men were
wounded.
On the 4th Aguinaldo issued procla-
nation charging the Americans with
having taken the initiative and declared
war. His influence throughout this
section is destroyed. He now applies
for a cessation of hostilities and a con-
ference. 1 have declined to answer
him.
The insurgents expectation of rising
in the city on the night of the 4th was
unrealized. The. provost marshal.gen-
eral, with the admirable disposition OF
his troops. defeated every attempt that
was made.
The city is quiet. Business has been
resumed. The natives are respectful
and cheerful. The fighting qualities Of
the American troops are revelation to
all the inhabitants.

CANADA Sc
CURES A PORT
News That the American Joint High
Commission Has Agreed to Cede
Fully Confirmed.

SEATTLE, Feb. S.-A report from
Washington that the subcommittee of
the American members of the joint high
commission would concede port on
Lynn canal, Alaska, to Canada in return
for fishing concessions on the Eastern
coast, aroused considerable resentment.
''The American memb bers of the joint
high commission have about made up
their minds to cede port to Canada on
the Lynn canal" said E. o. Graves,
president of the chamber of commerce
last night.
"There can be no doubt of it," he
added. ''I had a. telegram last night
from Congressman W. l.. Jones, of
Yakima, that this course would be
adopted, and today several kilograms
have been received that corroborate the
information beyond any question.
During the day a number of the
leading business men, in addition to the
chamber, have been using every effort
to counteract the determination that
has been arrived at, and quite a number
of kilograms have been sent to Pacific
coast senators and representatives, to
the American members of the commIs-
sion, Governor Brady, and in short,
every one calculated to lend an influence
against the ceding of any territory on
Lynn canal.
Other leading business men voiced the
sentiments expressed by Mr.. Graves
and said, in strong terms, that such a
proposition to cede American territory
would work serions harm to the CON-
merce of the Pacific coast.

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
monia always results from cold or from
an attack of La Grippe. During the
epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in pneu-
monia, it was observed that the attack
was never followed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was used.
1t counteracts any tendency of cold or
La Grippe to result in that dangerous
disease. 1t is the best remedy in the
world for bad colds and La Grippe.

MET WITH A
HORRIBLE FATE
John Marshall, of Lebanon, Receives
Fatal Burns While Intoxicated Last
Monday.

LEBANON, Feb. 8.-John Marshall,
aged 65 years, died at his home, seven
miles east of the city, Monday night,
from the effect of ourns received during
the partial destruction of his home by
fire early Sunday morning. Marahall
was in Lebanon Saturday, and it Is said
he drank considerable, and also pur-
chased quantity of liquor and took it
home with him. He was not seen again
that day.
The next morning John Graft, "a neigh
Dor, called at his place and receiving
no answer to his knock, opened the door
and walked in. He found Marshall in
bed with his clothing almost burned off,
his left side burned to crisp, and his
head singed. The floor was in flames
and Graft extinguished the fire. Med
ical aid for the injured man was at once
summoned, but all efforts to s-ve his
life were futile, and he died within
thirty-eight hours after he was found
by Craft.
Marshall had lived near here for many
years, was hard working man, was
possessed of considerable property and
was unmarried. So far as known he
has no relatives. How he received his
injuries is unknown, but it is supposed
that while intoxicated he fell against the
stove and his clothing was ignited by

A Kinkin Human Nature.

Some one has observed that there Is
one trait peculiar to human nature the
world over-the desire to get something
for nothing. 1t is engendered in the
hearts of the rich, perhaps even more
than the poor, who generally expect to
Fay for what they get. A good story
illustrative of this quality is told of a
little boy who went night after night
10 see circus and always slept thror ga
the performance. He was asked one
night why he came when he couldn't
keep awake.

teristic. A young man was IN great

The Poison Machinery of the Rep
tiles and How IL Is Operated.
Some years ago physician undertook
a series OF experiments on snakes with
a view TO extracting a sufficient amount
Of their venom to form a basis for in
vestigation, in order, if possible, to dis.
cover some antidote. His laboratory is
a curious and somewhat uncanny place
and one from which those with IN.
steady nerves instinctively recoil.
The apparatus for extracting the
Venom is most ingenious and vet a
very simply one A bit Of chamois is
tied over the top Of funnel which
leads TO bottle. Everything is secured
very firmly. The snake is caught by the
back of the neck and placed close to
this channels He strikes his fanps
through it, when tiny Jets of venom are
thrown from the fangs upon the glass
sides OF the bottle, triekling thence into
the bottle. Again and again the snake
is made to strike. If necessary. other
snakes of the same species are used I'M
III sufficient amount of the venom is
collected.
The relative deadly qualities OF the
venom of snakes have also been the sub
Ject OF experiments. 1t appears that the
diamond back rattlesnake is the most
to be dreaded The next in order is the
banded rattlesnake, followed by the
copperhead and the water moccasin or
cOttOnmouth
The poison machinery of the snake
consists of pair of needle pointed
fangs, which, when the creature is at
rest, are folded back i'll the roof Of the
mouth. When it becomes angry, these
fangs are thrown forward, and in the
act of striking tiny jet of poison is
thrown from each. The poison is thin,
yellow fluid which upon exposure de-
composes very rapidly Snake poison,
if kept from the air on dried, retains its
full force for many years.-New York

III. HnIr Dnnrer.

A young artist whose pipe, eyeglasses
and luxuriant blond hair have made
him well known in town went to a
garden party not so much for social
amusement as for pencil studies of high
life. He wore tall hat, frock coat and
lavender trousers and carried a sketch
ing block yard square, At the party
his epigrams, paradoxes and fiendish
silvery laugh overwhelmed, as he in
tended, all the girls in sight or hearing,
but he got through with his social du.
ties as speedily as might be, then went
and sat down on distant fence
Soon pencil studies lay all around
him on the grass. Suddenly he felt a
gentle tug at his back hair He thought,
That is some fresh Alec trying to guy
me, . and he did not look up. The gen
tie tugging ceased, began again, became
much stronger and then he felt some
thing wet, soft, Shiny, ON his neck. With
dreadful oath he leaped from the fence
and looked behind him. Back there was
q smart trap, in which sat two girls and
a young man laughing. The horses were
close to the fence, and it was one Of
these that had commenced browsing on
the artists profuse locks. Explanations
followed and apologies. "All flesh, - the
artist said, lis grass, but not all hair.
