At the latest populist convention in
Kansas there were seven delegates
They probably considered themselves
the seven wise men OF the world but
they will be wiser still before long
and succeeding conventions will have
the wisdom concentrated in still fewer
hands. All the populists in Adams
county were placed upon the demo.
cratic ticket and that is what the
straight up and consistent democrats
are mad about and they propose to
file their protest ON Nov. 4th.

A man ran to hospital, crying
that he had swallowed his false teeth
while he slept and demanded to be
relieved. He was. He was killed. The
hospital people turned on an X-Ray
through him, saw the teeth, put him
under the influence OF an anaesthetic,
cut his throat, discovered nothing but
that it was little sore and the man
never awoke. AS he lay dying his SER
want ran in with his teeth which lie
had found under the bed. The patient
had snored them out in his sleep. The
case called for little chlorate Of pot

Junction City, Or, May 2O.-A
cold-blo oded murder and robbery
occurred here at 1915 o'clock this
morning. Ben Tracy, the popular
bartender at the Monogram, while
closing the saloon, was shot by an
unknown robber and the till was
robbed of its contents.
1t is known that over 1915 dol
lars was in the till and that the
thief was we'll paid for his bloody
work. 1t is supposed that the VIC
tim was in the back room closing
the door, when the murderer first
made his appearance; that the till
was robbed while Tracy was there;
that hearing the warning bell on
the bartiIl, he made rush fer the
front; that the robber jumped on
the bar, and as Tracy pulled his re-
volver, the thief fired. The range
of the bullet was downward and
footprints on the bar bear out these
suppositions.
Sheriff Withers and Coroner Grif-
fin, of E lgene. were notified by wire
at once, and came down this morn
ing to hold an inquest The saloon
is owned by Al Waddle, OF Portland.
Mr.. Tracy bad been employed in
the house for over year and had
many friends throughout the state.
The shooting was heard by sew
eral people near by, but none of
them supposed that a crime had
been committed. The first shot was
only muffi-d report, as the build
ing is brick, and only when the in
jured man rushed to the front do3r
and fired his revolver did it dawn
on the minds of those who had
heard the two reports that some
thing was wrong. Fully five min
utes elapsed before the discovery
was made. The body was found re-
clining on the drain board, the
back to the front door and the head
lying on one arm, as if the man
were asleep. Those who came
in at first supposed from the posi-
tion the body was found in, that
Tracy was doing A physician
was hastily summoned, who discov-
cred that Tracy had been shot
through the al domen. La few
minutes Tracy expired.

time set, they began focking here
from all quarters of the city. Many
were already before the palace with
the rising sun and some even slept
in the park, to to certain not to
miss this sight.
A portion of the plaza was kept
clear by the police very early. The
remainder was packed with people
SO thiekly that the ground seemed
alive. Soon all the side streets run
ming into the plaza were choked in
to solid mass of humanity, and
every door and window fronting
the square was walled in with faces,
white and black, old and young,
male and female. The crowds
sought the roofs, overlooking every
building that commanded view of
the flagstaff on the palace. AS far
az the eye could see, the roof lines
were fringed with human freight.
It was sight to live forever in
memory. Drawn up below in the
open space of the plaza were eight,
dismounted troops of the Seventh
cavalry, with sabers at theft heels.
Their horses were already on board
the steamer which was to take them
back 10 the United States.
