REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT He Recommends $8000 Be Appropri ated for Improvements During the Fiscal Year of 1906 Review of Conditions at Resort. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Nov. 25. The Secretary of the In terior has made public the annual report of W. F. Arent, Superintendent of Crater Lake National Park, reviewing conditions in the Park at the present time, and pointing out Improvements that are most Imperative. To carry out the recommen dations of 'Superintendent Arent would require the appropriation of nearly $3, 000. The amount is modest enough, and may be made available by Congress at the coming session. At least the more important Items are likely to be provided. The following are the estimates sub mitted by Superintendent Arent: Residence with office In park .- 11300 Barn and stable In park 4U0 Toolhouae In park 100 Fence Inclosing buildings 240 Improvement of road, from south line to head of Anna Creek; scneral repairs.... 400 Change ot road from Whltehorse to new road now being built 1600 Completion of road now in course of con struction '. soo Improvement of swampy road at White horse ......... ........................ 250 Improvement ot trail Inside of crater.... 600 Iron railing on Victor rock 480 4tegtster and supplies and house for same 150 Lumber and transportation for same 203 Spikes, bolts and other hardware for bridges 75 Purchase ot tools for 1906 100 Salary of superintendent...... 1000 Allowance for keeping additional horse.... sua Total $7013 The item of $1500 is the estimated cost'- of making a change in the road from the mountain in the park to the Anna'" Creek bridge. The building of thls'ne' piece of road, which would shorten tho distance about one-half mile, would place the road upon good ground with easy grades, and would eliminate from the traveled road the very high hill at the summit of the mountain, which is on either side one of the steepest and hard est hills on any road In Southern Oregon. "It would also bring the travel to the new and easy road to the lake, thus ob viating the necessity of climbing the very steep, rocky, and rough mountain on the old road. "This proposed pleco of new road Is an Improvement that Is much needed, and would be of great convenience and benefit to the people coming into tho park and visiting the lake, and In my opinion would cost, to mako a good and creditable road, the amount placed In the estimate, $1500. "It should be born In mind that access to the park and to the lake proper Is had from two directions, viz. from the southern or Klamath side and from tho j western or Rogue River side, over which latter road all the tourists and visitors j from all tho western and northern parts of the State would pass, and In order for the travel approaching from the western or Rogue River side or direction to get the benefit of the new road now in pro cess of construction from Anna Creek bridge to tho rim of tho crater it would be necessary to extend .the amount men tioned, otherwise, the people from the western side would receive no benefit, as without It they would be compelled to cross over the high, steep mountain to the new road, or still travel tho old and almost Impassable road up the mountain to the lake as heretofore. Under favorable circumstances we may be able to reach the rim of the crater with the new road now In course of con struction, but this would by no means complete the road. For the benefit of the work, we have only partially com pleted tho road In many places, doing only what work was necessary, so as to pass over with our teams to the work farther on, a considerable amount of work being necessary along much of the road In widening, grading and smoothing. etc., to put it m nrst-ciass condition. Eight hundred dollars would be necessary for this work during the fiscal year ot 1906. On the road between Whitehorse and the crater is a piece of road extending a distance of about 60 rods, at the base of the summit ridge, that passes over cround that Is wet and in places boggy. made so by springs rising at the base of this mountain and along the road, and which is much In need of improving by cutting a deep ditch above and in several places across the road and by maxing small bridges or culverts over such drains. This Is a very bad piece of road. and should be repaired. It would cost $250 to do the necessary amount of work at this place. "The banks inside the crater are very precipitous, and, there being but one place from which the water Is accessible, ana the trail leading from the summit to the water's edge being very steep and crooked and In many places dangerous (so much so that It is only the stronger Individuals who are able to make the descent and as cent), and, as a trip down into the crater to the water Is one of the chief attractions. It Is urgently necessary that better facil ities for making this trip be provided. The stretching of a small cable along the side of the trail. In connection with widen ing out, straightening, cutting steps, and the general improvements suggested, would be of very great assistance in mak ing the trip down and up the bluff, and very materially lessen the danger. There fore, $500 is placed In the estimate as the amount which will be necessary for mak ing this much-needed improvement. "Eight or ten rods below the rim of the crater is a promontory of rock called Vic tor" Rock, where nearly every visitor goes for a good view of the lake and the sur rounding country; at the summit of this rock, where many people congregate, it is rough and uneven, and in some places slopes toward the lake; below, it is verti cal; In fact, hangs over for almost 1000 feet above the water. It being one of the most prominent points on the lake rim. and there being danger of accident and even loss of life, owing to the character of this rock, I would earnestly recom mend that $150 be expended In placing a strong iron railing along the outer edge of this rock. The Improvement would be a great protection at this, the most prom inent and perhaps the most dangerous point on the rim of the crater. "Owing to the fact that during the Sum mer months the entire time of the super intendent is required In superintending the improvements and other affairs of the park, as there Is danger at any time of destructive fires breaking out and these fires do start every Summer add as there is more or less of trespassing in stock grazing upon the park lands, and as It 1b very difficult, almost Impossible, to re strain some people from cutting green Um ber In the park, it is deemed absolutely necessary that there should be at least two patrolmen in the park from the 15th of June to the 15th of October. 1S05. to at tend to those matters above specified. Sixty dollars per month each would be reasonable compensation for such serv ices. I have, therefore, placed In the list of estimates, as a necessary expenditure, an Item of $480 for this purpose. "Having personally superintended each and every item of work and improvement , of every kind, and also havfac personally conducted all of the affairs pertaining In any way to the parks, and seeing plainly the -utter Impossibility of 'making be nec essary Improvements with the small ap propriations that have bees made for this and the previous years; and being well acquainted with all of the conditions ex isting in every locality of the park, andy believing that each and every item con-, tained in the estimate for necessary im provements for the fiscal year of 1S0S are necessary to only a moderate development of the park, and If made would add very materially, not only to the attractiveness and convenience of the reserve as a resort and pleasure ground, but would be of in estimable benefit In managing, improving and protecting the park, I therefore ear nestly recommend that the sum of $7318 be appropriated for the management, im provement and protection of the Crater Lake National Park during the fiscal year of 1S0S." DYING 3AN SHIELDS "afUTlDEBEB Other Gambler, However, Is Un moved and Refuses. to Shake Hands. NEW TORK, Nov. 25.-Guy Roche, the gambler who was shot by Stewart A. Fel ton, another gambler. In a crowd on Broadway yesterday. Is still alive, but there is no chance for his recovery. Last night Roche declined to name his assail ant, saying he "would settle matters" If he recovered. Today, however, when the physicians made him realize the serious ness ojt his condition, he consented to have Felton brought before him and said he would identify him as the man who fired the shot. When the man was brought to the wounded man's bedside Roche said: "Tes, Frank shot me, but he was Justi fied. I would have done the same to him." Then addressing Felton, who had appar ently not been moved in the least by this declaration, the dying man said: "Good-bye, Frank, old boy. I don't blame you." Roche told tho detectives that he and Felton had quarreled, but he could not recall the cause of the trouble. At the close of the Interview the wound ed gambler turned to Felton and said: "Won't you shake hands, Frank?" Felton did not reply, and did not appear to notice Roche's request. "Oh. don't act like that Frank. We're old pals, shake hands with me." Felton did not turn his head and the detectives then took him away. their prisoner they tried to put through a third-degree Inqulsl tUmi Suddenly in the midst of it Fel tjwf broke his silence. HfSay," he cried, "you have got me WTong. I never shot that man. I never carried a gun In my life." The theory of the police Is that Fel ton carried a revolver In tho pocket of a light overcoat, which they allege he wore at the time of the shooting, and that the coat with the revolver tlll in the pocket was carried away by a con federate after the shooting had occur red. Felton was later arraigned in Police Court and held without bail for exam ination tomorrow. Should Roche die before Sunday the prisoner will be taken Immediately before a Magistrate and remanded to the Coroner. The police believe that the trouble between Roche and Felton which cul minuated in the shooting was over a woman who had transferred her affec tions from Roche to Felton. To Coroner Scholer the wounded man repeated his statement that Felton was his assailant, but insisted that the shots were fired In self-defense and that the act was Justifiable. Roche tbld the Coroner he had been drinking heav ily yesterday, and that while going along Broadway he met Felton In front of the Marlborough Hotel. After a few words a quarrel arose. Felton. he said, tried to quiet him, but his con dition was such that he only became the more angered. He said he told Felton that he was going' to shoot hlra and walked away to get a gun. He re turned In a few minutes, and as he ap proached Felton he put his hand to his hip pocket to draw the weapon he says he had secreted. At this movement Roche told the Coroner, Felton drew his revolver and fired two shots at him. Roche declared that he has no rela tives. At the moment ho was saying this, however, a well-dressed young woman, who had previously called at the hospital and asked to see Roche, claiming to be his sister, was wait ing for an opportunity to see him. She was permitted to see Roche after the Coroner went away. Roche is about 35 years of age, and came here about ten years ago from Kentucky. The arrest of Felton, charged with the shooting, was one of the quickest cases of the kind managed by the police in some time. One of the pursuers was a stenog rapher, J. S. King. He went to the sta tion and. at the request of the police, took on the spot the testimony of all the witnesses. King declared that he saw Felton fire at Roche, and George P. Auld, a Paymaster In the Army, confirmed his words, saying he stood close beside Felton at the time. Half a dozen men were also examined, and Felton, who gave bis birthplace as Ohio, was searched. In one .pocket was a roll of $2900 la bills of large denomina tion. The prisoner showed absolutely no concern over his arrest. After the hearing had been completed. Police Captain Cottrell declared Felton to be one of the worst men he ever had to deal with ir. the precinct and that Roche- was equally bad. "As a gambler," said the Captain, "Fel ton has given me more trouble than any other man In New Tork. For a long time I have had men stationed in front of his place In Thirty-sixth street, and also at the rear entrance, and have tried my best to drive him out of the city." " Other policemen declared Felton was driven out of Chlcag6 several years ago and was known all through the West, At one time he ran a gambling house, it was charged, Just back of the station house.

Bureau of Forestry Will Soak Poles In Water. WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. The Bureau of Forestry, at Its new experiment sta tions In Wisconsin and Michigan, will make seasoning tests of cedar and tam arack telephone . and telegraph poles which have been submerged In water for varying lengths of time. This Is an en tirely new line of experiment. That Im mersion in water seems to affect the rate of seasoning has often been noticed. Rafting is said by many lumbermen to Improve timber and logs which have lain for a long time in swamps are in some places eagerly Bought for their superiority for certain uses. But Just why this should be true, and what prac tical use can be made of the fact In sea soning generally, are matters which have never been thoroughly ascertained. It Is known, that the sap of green wood contains certain soluble substances al bumen, starch, sugars, tannin, etc which undoubtedly are bleached out of timber immersed In water to a greater or less extent. In ordinary seasoning these substances are left behind as the water evaporates and are deposited on the cell walls. As seasoning begins on the out side these deposits must act as clog3 which virtually bottle up to a certain de gree the water In the Interior. It Is pos sible also that chemical or physical changes In the wood cells are produced by soaking. Timber seasoning Is at best tedious and slow work. It can be done fairly well In 10 or 12 months, but thorough seasoning requires from 18 to 24 months, the time varying with the different kinds of wood. If the Bureau of Forestry realizes Its expectations from these new experiments, the time required for seasoning poles will be reduced one-third, and poslbly much more. This would prove an exceedingly valuable economy. If, In addition, the durability of the poles can be increased in this way, the saving both to users or poles and to the cause of forest preser vation will be enormous. For every year added to the service of poles cuts off a proportionate demand upon the forests for their renewal. In these new tests the poles will be submerged In water for different periods, from one week up, to decide what length of time will give the best results. They will then be placed on skids about twe feet above the -ground and left to dry. They will touch each other, but will be ot childbirth aaa easanng iter a quiet recovery of her strength which is neoossary to motherhood.

At the expira tion of every 30 days each . pole will be weighed, and also measured to ascertain any shrinkage of Its circumference. Un soaked poles have furnished a circum ference shrinkage of one-sixteenth to one-eighth inch in 30 days, and of one- J fourth inch in six months. I An important matter in seasoning Is f the loss In weight. Past experiments with j white cedar poles have shown a loss In weight of about one-third aTter 60 days of drying. In the case of chestnut poles the same length of time showed a 10 per cent loss. These poles are long and very heavy, and such a large weight reduc tion means a decided saving in freight charges, and Increased ease in handling. But this advantage, though important, is small In comparison with the gain in lengthened service. Further, with greater resistance to decay It will be possible to lower the present butt diameter require ment, w'hlch is now based on the cer tainty that rot will soon weaken the power of the pole to withstand strain at the surface of the ground. Alto gether, if the soaking process fulfills what It seems to promise, It will have a notable bearing on one of the large branches of timber consumption. - as a moment's thought of the number ot poles In use in the . entire country will show. E0AD 5000 YEASS -OLD. Scenes Along One of the Most Ancient Highways in the World. Scribner's Magazine. . The road from Horns to Hama runs al most due north, a straight white line cut ting across the green fields. It Is one of the oldest routes In the world. Caravans have been passing alon it for at least five thousand years, Just as we saw them long strings of slow moving camels with their bright colored bags of wheat. One could almost Imagine that Pharoah was again calling down the corn of Ha math to fill his granaries against the seven years of famine. But even here the old things are passing. Just beyond the long line of camels was a longer line of fellah women, their dirty blue robes kilt ed above their knees, carrying upon their shoulders baskets of earth and stone for the roadbed of the new French railway. The carriage road is French, too, and a very good road it is. Some men were re pairing it with a most ingenious roller. It was a great round store, drawn by two oxen, and having Its axle prolonged by a 20-foot pole, at the end of which a bare legged Arab was fastened to balance the whole affair. If the stone had toppled over, the picture of the Arab dangling at the top of the slender flagstaff would have been worth watching. All along the ride we were reminded of the past.
