"Badger pull ngS" are still a lead
ing attraction "down on the street"
The one held last Friday, in which
a New Yorker was special guardian
of the badger, was perhaps the
most exciting since Tallmadge'S
Chauffeur, M. H McKiIIip, proved
his gameness. The somewhat un-
usual feature in the last "pulling'
was, that when the son of New
York turned his badger loose, in
stead of the animal attacking Harry
Miller'S dog, as expected, it landed
on Referee Donohoo,. claWing him
from the necktie all the way down;
the New Yorker also came in for
some of the enraged animals atten-
ton though tits said that his in
jurieS were chiefly of the nature OF
what lawyers call ''mental an
guiSh," caused by the furious ap-
pearance of the badger. The referee
will recover. The New Yorker
threatens to sue the manager, w.
G. Kenyon, who is also owner of
this particular badger, for damages.
Quite lot of money had been put
up, but owing to the circumstances,
here barely outlined, all bets were
declared off.

Thanksgiving Day was very
we'll observed in Canyon City.
The attendance at the Union
services, held in the Christian
Church, was such as is rarely
found in towns tour times the
size OF ours; the sermon, by
Rev. Haynes, was not only good
but practical and fitting to the
occasion and the other part of
the program was we'll in keep
ing with it. And not the least
of the days attractions was the
most excellent and altogether
appropriate Methodist dinner
served by the ladies of that
church at the very moderate
price of % cents; it seemed to
us that most half the town ate
there.

explain why the vouchers wen made out
to that item. Counsel Beck for the

to the fact that all vouchers for the
maintenance of this house had been
charged as legal expenses. Hughes re.
piled that it didn't explain the items
charged to railroad expenses.
Mullaney Didn't Know.
Mullaney did not know what the
sundries wene, unless the supplies were
meant. He had made several trips to

Casualties Estimated at 400.

The Governor gave no estimate of the
casualties. The correspondent of the
Associated Press, who Is on the ground,
says officers estimate the casualties at
200, which certainly is very eonserva-
tive in view Of the reports of the re-
fugees. No attempt is made in gov
ernment circles TO minimize the serous-
ness Of the mutiny, and il is feared the
mutiny will have bad effect on the
morals Of the troops, which are already
badly shaken by the revolutionary pro-
paganda.
