Kehdrick, Idaho. Dl--c 1 The o

called Idst huntiuar party in the BitterHoot mountains of Idaho, whose rescuebas excited o much interest during thepast few weeks, was organized bv Mr. WE Carlin I st summer. The party con-silte- d

of W E Carlin. son of BrigHciier-Genera- l

William P Carliu : J H Pierce.brother in-l- aw c I Mr Carlin ; and ALAHimme! wripht, fecretary of the Columbia Granite Company of New York city.They secured their outfit in Spokane,and engaged Martin " Spencer as guide,and Genrge Colgate, ef Post Falla, ascook. They proceeded by twin to Ken-dric-

Idaho, and. with 10 cav rises andfive wtek8f provisions. ftiried out fromthat point on September 18 The routewas b way of Snel 's MtU, WHppe,Brown's creek, Mussel Shell creek, andtbence via Lo Lo troll to what are knownas the Indian postoffiVrs. 55 miles fromMussel SlK-l- i r.rrck At lhis point a trailbranches from the Lo L trail, and leadsto the warm springs on the Clearwaterriver. The destination of the party wasreached September 26 Although itrained steudi'y for thirteen days, whichinterfered considerably with the pleas-ure of hUDt:ni;, the party met with greatsuccess, and on October 10 started on thereturn trip ov r the Lo Lo trail. Afterrearhing the lop ol the Brat ridge parallcl to the Clearwater river, two andone- - hall teet of snow was found, and tbeguide-estimat- that tbe snow would befour feet deep on the higher portions oftbe Lo Lo trail. Should tbe horses become exhaus'ed from lack of food, tbepurty would be compelled to walk tbebalance of the distance to Mussel ShellcrceK, and a9 the cook was mck and unable to walk, bis pni-itio- in that casewould be very serioun.

rnocht Hi Wy Oat.London, Dec. 1 Advices from Rio

Janeiro say there u no truth in the report that President Peixoto was aisastiDated. He is today engaged in repairingdangerous breaches in tbe forts sodearthworks ashore. The dispatch contaius a report that Mello lelt Rio with i

portion of his fleet to intercept vesselscoming to Peizoto's aid. There was somedesperate fighting between tbe rebelships and tbe forts at tbe entrance to tbeharbor as Mello tiied to get out. Tbefire of the forts was well directed, andMello succeeded in getting past only af-ter his flagship bad been severely dam-aged. ODce outside be (teamed south'wardly, but it ii believed this was only aruse, and that tbe admiral changed biscaurse as soon as out of sight. - It it re.ported that Mello is not scared at the re-

ported power 01 the djuamite gun onDoard one ot the vessels of tbe relievingsquadron. He todk with bim a Dumberot fast steam launches for use in thecoming encounter. It is said Mello hasa much more wholesome fear of the facttorpedo boats which tbe coming cquadron brings with it.

A aiardecer Hanged.Astoria, Dec. i John Reiier, the

murderer of Victor Snellmao, was bangedpromptly at noon today. He read in afirm voice a conlession acknowledgingtbe justice of bis sentence. ! -

Just before the trap fell, a large nnm-- .

berof sheriffs from different parts ol tbestate and about 500 invited citizens fromtbe city and county were admitted withiin tbe inclosure and saw the haDsinb,which went off all right.

He ascended tbe steps of the gallowsunaided and was given a few minutes'time in which to say a lew words to thespectators. In firm tones be said: "Iacknowledge my guilt of tbe crime for

am about to suffer death, the1of tbe sentence and tbe impartial -

lty ot the judge and jury. I have tothank Sheriff Smith and his deputies fortheir kindness. . I forgive everybody. Ihope tbat I may myself be forgiven, andthat all will pray for me."

Toward the end of his remarks tbepaper which he held trambled slightly,but beyond this do a;gn of faintness wasvisible until Sheriff Smith began to pin-ion him. Be i ore this operation was com-pleted be had to be supported. '

The straps were arranged with remark-able celerity and dexterity and the ropeadjusted in a few minutes. No time waslost, and as the sheriff completed the ad'jDstment he lifted bia hand and the trapfell. Reiter's neck was dislocated andlile was pronounced extinct in min-utes. The body was not cut down un'il16 minutes after tbe drop.

Drank EtrB-Ko-ar and Died.Salem, Or., Dec. 1 R. L;. McGee, a

laborer, was found in a drunken stuporabout 2 o'clock this morning in tbe rearof William Anderson's saloon. He wasnot taken in by tbe police immediately,but a short time later they went to arrestbim. when be was dead. Tbe body wasremoved to an undertaker's, and this af-ternoon the coroner's inquest commenced,which is not yet finished. An autopsy ofthe body shows that the liquor tbat wastaken by the deceased caused paralysisof the heart.

An analysis of the contents of thestomach and bladder is also bein- - made.It is supposed tbat deceased indulged info free drinking of egg-no- g during tbeearly portion of last night. Two othersare quite sick, caused by the same. Mc-Gee leaves a wite aud six small children.

Condon Globe: Farmers and stock misers throughout the county are in better fixto enter the winter than for a number ofyears past. Their stock is in fine conditionand all have an abundance of hay, the cropthis season having been large and haystacksare numerous. Generally the stockmenare prepared to feed from two to threemonths, and if Gilliam county losses any-thing by the winter, other loca itiea thatare not so well prepared, will sustain heavylosses.

He was born in Ohio ADril 25. 1832. andcrossed the ' plains" to Oregon in 1852. Hocame to Prineville in 1873, aod has madetbis his residence since. On March 16,1880, he was united ii, marriage j)o MissMary Stephens, who with four ohildreo.two ooys and two girls, survive to mournan sffoctionate husband and kind father.Mr. Kiz.r was a carpenter, and followedthat trade until ouroDelled bv airkneaaabout six months ago to give np work.By bit death Prineville loses a familiarlandmark and community a reaps tad citizen. ,

There' was considerable excitem ent lastnigiii at wrants, Big s and Columbus,Wash., over the supposed drowning ofRev. Frank Johns. He, with anotherpreacher, had been holding revival meet-ings at Columbus tor several days past,and that evening went to Grants to bringhis sister over to the service. The timefor his arrival at tbe meeting bad elapsedand he made no appearance, aod seriousappreoensions were felt that the boat hadcapsized in crossing the Columbia andthat both were drowned. A vigilantsearch was made until about midnightwhen both parties were fouud at a farmhoue a few miles down the river, wheretbey bad drifted in their boat during asquall. This relieved the anxiety of tbeneigbuorhood; but it was somewhatstrange that Mr. Johns, knowing tbe ex-citement that hisdisappearance wouldcanse bis wife,- - bad not by some meanssent word of his safety.

A Dastardly Outrage.Albany Herald.

A dastardly outrage waa committed bysome unknown miscreant Wednesday nightat tha residence of Mr. Walter B. Peacock,from which he and his mother narrowlyescaped suffocation.

Mr. Peacock and his mother, an elderlylady, reside in tbe eastern part of the city.Wednesday night Mr. Peacock remainedlate at the store, and bis mother went to aneighbor's to stay nntil he returned. About10 o'clock ho went to ths neighbor's houseand accompanied his mother home. On en-

tering the bouse thay were mat with some-thing supposed to be the stiffing odor ofchloroform, aud his mother was overcomeby it She screamed for help aqd ber criesattracted the attention of tho neighbors.Mr. Peacock, fearing that the miscreantwas in hiding near by, fired several shotsfrom a revolver, which brought a number ofmen to the place. It is thought tbat thedeadly drug had been injected through thekeyhole, evidently with a syringe, and nodoubt with the insane idea that tbe inmatescould be overcome for ths purpose of mur-der or robbery, or both. Suspicion pointsto tbe party who committed the dead, andtha police will keep tha suspect uadar closesurvailance.

Mr. Peacock's lift has bean laUly threat-ened and tha polios think this may throwsome light on Wednesday night's outrage.
