BODY OF GIRL FOUND.
Believed That Pretty Telephone Oper
 ator was Murdered.s


 Cincinnati, Nov. 3.-The body Of Alma Steinway, a telephone operator. was found today in a vacant lot near the entrance to Spring Grove cemetery with marks that indicate murder.
 A trail of blood from the street car track suggested that the girl had been struck by a car. Her injuries were all about her head. The condition of her clothing indicated a. desperate struggle. No clue to the manner of her death has been found. She was apparently on her way home when killed.
 Miss Steinway was exceptionally at- traetive and highly respectable. It is believed that some one waylaid her in the suburbs or possibly assaulted her and dragged her body into the vacant lot adjoining Spring Grove cemetery. There was found today a blood trail from the lot to the street car tracks and every indication of a desperate struggle.
 Her teeth were scattered along the trail as we'll as her hat and other parts of her clothing. She was cut over the temple, her skull crushed and her jaws broken.

 Considerable interest is felt in foot ball and the practices are all well at tended. Saturday next, Varsity will meet the Red and Black of Georgia on the campus. Not much is known of the Crackers strength, but the pros poets are for a good fight. with the odds slightly in Alabama's favor. The team this year. however, is not coming up to the expectations of its support CTS. considering the material and coaching With the Varsity line the heaviest in local gridiron history, the scrubs have frequently been able to tear great holes in 1t, and occasionally lick their opponents in easy style. The only explanation offered Is that the heavier men lack the aggresslveness so necessary in successful football.
 Last Friday night the Young Wo- mems Christian Association gave a de- lightful entertainment in the Univer- sity dining hall for the benefit of mis- sions from which a goodly sum was realized. Salads. candies etc., were served, and the Glee Club furnished music for the occasion.
 The various halls and laboratories of the University are being equipped with electric gongs for signal purposes. which will supplant the bugle used for many years past.

HAY TO WILLAMETTE.
Light Crops In the Western Portion of
the State Has Made Demand for
Eastern Oregon Feed.

Eastern Oregon hay is 'being ship
ped from different points to Salem
Oregon City. Forest Grove and other
points in the valley. Loose hay in
the valley is now worth from $14 to
SIS per ton, and cannot be found
for sale i'm the valley at that price.
At Eugene. it is selling for SIC per
ton. Very little forage feed of any
kind was raised in the Willamette
this season, and hundreds of tons of
Eastern oregon hay will be shipped
there this winter.
Hay in the Butter Creek country
is now selling for about Sc per ton,
in the stack, with little left unsold.
A largo quantity is being used on the
Arlington Condor railroad grade, and
buyers have recently purchased all
they could find available for that
work. Timothy i'm Grand Ronde is
worth $1S per ton, baled, and is being
shipped to Portland and valley
points by the carload.
Most of the sheepmen of Umatilla
county are plentifully supplied Tor
the coming winter, a very few having
less than they need.

FEES WERE HEAVY.
Banner Months of the County Re-
corder's office.

The thousand dollar mark was
reached i'm the fees received by the
county recorder of conveyances dur
ing the months of September and
October. This is the largest business
for like period i'm the history of the
office. The recorders office was first
established July l. 1894. Fred w.
Hendley, the present deputy under
Recorder William Folsom, was the
first official i'm the office. Accord
ing to figures compiled by him the
receipts of the office have steadily
increased, year by year.
For the first two years the revenues
of the office amounted to $3.SSS.20.
During the following two years the
revenues were increased to $4.45S.S5.
From 1898 to 1900 the increase was
but $S2.l5. During the succeeding "a
months the fees amounted to $6,660.-
25. For the two fiscal years ending
July l, 1904. the revenues had grown
to $S.557.90.
Business since the first of August
of the present year has been larger
than ever before and Mr.. Hendley is
of the opinion that all records will be
outdone throughout the entire year.

Washington. ID. c., Nov. 1.-The
approach of election day has brought
on Washington Sunday quiet. The
themselves of voters for several days,
and by the end of the week in all the
big government buildings the forces
will be reduced to the lowest mini
mum possible.
The government services will not
be allowed to suffer because of this
exodus of voters, as the heads of de-
partments have been preparing for
the lack of workers by getting the
routine work well i'm hand and i'm such
condition that reduced number of
employees can handle it.
The indications are that practically
all of the government workers who
hail from New York and Indiana will
go home to vote. In some of the
states where the result is less in doubt
the voters have not been so anxious to
exercise their right of suffrage. In
several cases where public business
prevented employees from leaving
their places in the departments, pairs
have been arranged with men of op'
posite party.
The civil service laws have beer
extended so much in recent years
that the exodus of employees of tn,
government to the different states
hardly will improve the chances o.
either party. OF all the government
bureaus the largest quota of voters
will leave the government printing of
flee. There are several Thousand
men in that office, and about one-hal
of them have asked for leaves of alb
sence.
