A depth of 316 feet hlld been reached without striking an available supply of wider, and though the coiiihiIUm had author ity from the council to no to a depth of over :i.M) f.-t, It was decided tint further drilling would ho hut a wasin of money, Winn boring was stnptx-d the drills bud struck a strata of muddy shale underlying the amid which murked the end of (be test lutit week. While there were liullcutlon of wa ter al a greater depth, It was thought Hint It would not be economical to lift It lo the lop of the well, and so the lest was udandoiied. Mr. Kcott (hen made the council proposition, which waa accepted by Ihe spi'lal committee, and which will call for the drilling of one or two test wells al other sites, mainly on his own resNinalblllty. If water Is struck, the city will rout the bill; If It Is not found. Mr. Kcott will stand prac tically tiie entire cost of the work.

SALMON ROMP OVER FALLS IN MAD RUSH Water has reached the right stage In the fish ladder over the falls of the Willamette for the particular tastes of the salmon, and since Satur day last the royal fish have been hurdling through the ladder at the rate of several hundred an hour. The run through the ladder I particularly heavy In the late afternoon and even ing, but at other time I aurflcien'Jy strong to show tbnt the big swimmer and left per are pleased with thing. For this happy date of affair the fish have to thank the efforts of An gus Gore, deputy fish warden in charge of the ladder. Mr. Gore has been troubled of late by the apparent Inability of the big salmon to negoti ate the ladder, and after considerable experimentation discovered that it was because too great a volume of water was pouring down through t.ie several pools. This has been rem edied by the placing of sluice-board, which partly cut down the flow, ani the fish are now going through like a flock of aheep. Owing to high wa ter be ow the falls, the fish swim over the first several stage of tbe ladder, and do not begin their spectac ular leaping until well above tbe ususal water line. Much Concern Felt. Failure of the fish to negotiate the ladder before this ha caused consid erable worry to the state autorlties, and to local aportsmen Interested In preserving the salmon, and has alao hurt commercial fishing in the river to a eon;!d?rab:e degree, and brought about the catching and shipping out of a large number of salmon that were not exactly fit for food. It Is now believed that salmon ready to spawn will get out of the lower river more readily, and that those caught by the gill-netters will be of a better grade. Previous to the alterations made in tbe fish ladder, many of the salmon were dashing themselves aealnst the rocks In their efforts to find their own way over tha falls, and were mutillating and wounding themselves in their fruitless leaps. Hundreds of pounds of fUh have been picked up by the nets that have killed them selves against tbe rocks, and tbetr torn and crushed bodies have present ed anything but a pretty sight. These fish that have been thusly killed aro not fit for food, and while efforts have been mads to eliminate them from outgoing shipments. In the jur ry of boxing and sending away, a number of them have got In consign ments. Tampering Charge Made. Failure of the fish to use tbe ladder, before the difficulty with the flow of water was discovered, led to the charge being openly made that en emies of the state game code were de liberately tampering with the fish BIG LOG i Struck and crushed by a heavy stump that rolled down the hill upon him, Henry Younker, an employee of the rock crusher at the end of Jeffer son street, was seriously injured Wed nesday afternoon, sustaining two frac tured ribs, a dislocated hip and ex tensive abrasion about the head an! body. Younker waa working on the side of the bill, digging out some roc's that bad previously been blasted. Twelve feet above him a large stump waa clinging to the face of the cut ting, and in prying at the rocks this became loostened. Younker saw bis peril, but owing to the pile of brok en stone about was unable to get out of the way quickly enough. The tree-trunk struck him a glan cing blow, felling him, and then roll ed upon him. Fellow workmen, at tracted by his groans, had consider able difficulty in removing the log from bis body, and in carrying him to one side of the big cutting, where he was made as comfortable as possible until medical attention could be given him. The man was later removed to hla home. Wives and Wing.

The most careful guarding and watching by tbe fish wardens, how ever, has failed to reveal any at tempts at such work. In past year stone have been hurled in tho lad der to frighten thn salmon back, and It i said that at other time eel have been cut up and thrown in tbe water with the same Idea In view. He fore the present law were establish ed, restricting netting salmon within COO feet of the fall, floating barrier a'so kept tbe fish from reaching tba ladder. President Tom J. Myers, of the Clackamas County Rod Oun club, with a small party, viisted the fall and fish ladder in a launch Tuesday afternoon, and watched the fish go ing through. Thev were well satis fied with the work of the wardens, and gave unstinted praise to Deputy Gore for solving the mystery sur rounding the failure of the royal fish to use the ladder In reaching the up per river. Had not tbe trouble been located, Mr. Mlyers. with tbe assist ance of Dr. Ice and others interested was going to endeavor to get em ployees of tha state hatchery lent down to coop the fifth from the pool and have them transported to guard ed spawning grounds, where they could deposit their egg in safety. The fact that the fish are now using the ladder, however, make any auch ef fort unnecesary. Rigid Watch Kept "The fish are going through, stead ily," said Mr. Myers, after hi inspec tion of conditions at the falls, "and I believe the greater part of the late run has already made Its way to tha upper river. The warden have done good work this year, and the steady patrol has given the fish a chance to get to spawning grounds without be ing blocked by nets, as was formerly the case. I believe, however, that it would be still better for the preserva tion of the salmon If the dead-line for net waa put still further back." Other who are Insterested in tho fish question, and who have been wor ried by the large number of salmon which this year had woundfid or kill ed themselves in dashing against the rocks, saw not only a menace to the fish in this, but also a menace to con sumers of tbe canned product, Thay believed that some rigid form of in spection ought to be instituted at the canneries, so that salmon that jad been dead before being removed from the water would not be packed. In timation was also made that too many "black" salmon were getting to the canneries, and that such shipments ought to be forbidden. With tbe changes of the ladder, and with the fish now going through. It is not believed that any more trouble will result niniirxno m urrr FOR ANNUAL PICNIC Great preparations are being made for the Pioneers' picnic to ba held Saturday at Wright Springs, near Mulino, and it Is expected that there will be one of the most Interesting programs ever planned by the men who built up this part of the Oregon country.
