Disastrous season for Elk.

The open season for hunting elk,
which has just closed, has proved quite
successful from the sportsman's point
of view, but has been equally disas-
trous to the elk. For q number of
years 80 elk have been ranging on the
headwaters Of the Grand Ronde and
North Fork Of the John Day river,
and with the opening OF the elk sea-
son hunters flocked to that locality,
each equipped to get the portion al
lowed to him by law. At least 10 of
the animals are known to have been
killed during the season. And the
others haye been scattered over the
till scarcely any trace can
be found OF them.-Grant County
News.

Delaware MAY Be "Dry.n

Dover, Deleware, Oct. 29.-The
wave of prohibition which during the
past year has swept. a large section
of the south with surprising results
is gaining a good start in the east.
On the day of the general election
next week, Delaware voters for the
first time will have the right of
franchise to determine whether the
second smallest state in the union
shall enter the column Of "dry"
states. The vote will go by districts
and the prohibitionists are confident
of success in the rural districts and
also believe they have a good chance
of winning in the cities.

Blind Politician Retires.

Providence, r. l., Oct. 29.-Gen-
eral Charles R. Brayton, republican
national committeeman from Rhode
Island, and for more than a genera
tion a mighty power in the politics
of Rhode Island, has announced his
intention of not taking any part in
the present campaign. With the
retirement of General Brayton.
Rhode Island politics loses one of its
picturesque figures. Although blind
for many years, the general had a
large following, and his personality,
was forceful element in the repub-
lican politics in the state. OF late,
however, his political enemies have
waged a vigorous warfare against
him with the result, apparently,
that the once-powerful boss" has
decided that it was time to quit the
field.

Murder and Suicide.

Charlotte, N. c., Special. Mrs.
Madge Powers, wife of Harry T. Pow
ers a Morehead street grocer was
found dead in her bed room IN the
north end of the store building Sal-
urday morning about Z o'clock. Hard
by her lay her husband, unconscious
and dying. A pistol lay within a few
inches of Powers right hand. Blood
oozed from a bullet hole in the fore
head of his wife and flowed freely
from the wound back of his right ear.
Murder and suicide-every bit Of evil
dence pointed that way. 1t was plain
that Harry Powers had, for some
within of his own, shot his wife dead
in her tracks and then turned tie
gun on himself. Dime novels, ciga-
retts, cards and whiskey were amorg
the ornaments of the pitiful looking
rooom. Whiskey, empty bottles and
a half-flled glass sat on the little Ia
BILE by the door. The entire affair
is a very tragical as we'll as mysteri-
Gus one, and whiskey coupled with
domestic troubles is doubtless tile
cauSe.
