We stripped tno Kears on a little pitch about half way between Union creek and Pros pect. We finally managed, with tho help of a passing auto, to get to the top of the pitch. Wo had only tho high left and couldn't start in the sand on that, so it was a case of push the car until the thing would start, and then pile in the best way ,we could. It was funny, and at tho same time hard work. We would go like a streak for a few hundred yards and then have to stop. Finally Sid Brown and I left Barbour and Neely with the car and started for the En yart ranch to telephone for help. We tried every place we came to for transportation, but the dearth of horses in that section is something fearful, so we just hit the road through the pumice dust to the En yart place, where wo arrived at 12:30 at night. Every one was in bed, but we rustled around and got some soap and took a dip in the river to take off some of the pumice dust we had accumulated. "Coming back from the river we found a tent with a couple of beds in it, and supposing Mrs. Moulden had prepared them for us, expecting the party to be there that night, we turn ed in. It appcurs, however, that a party of youngsters had arrived that evening, and, imbued with the idea of roughing it, insisted on sleeping on the river bank. Wise in her genera tion, Mrs. Moulden had prepared the beds in the tents, knowing that the boys would be looking for warmer quarters before morning. And it was so; but when the 'kids' came looking for those beds they were occupied by a couple of tired ex-autotnobilists, who refused to wake up, and as a consequence the boys built a bon fire and sat around it the rest of the night. "We got the cur in from Trail on her own speed, and it was some speed, too. I rode in the hind car and we lost sight of tho other boys at the ferry. They couldn't truvel on anything but the high gear, you know, but judging from sundry re marks we in the other car heard from passing fanners und automobilists, they were taking no chances on get ting stuck." BRINGS REMAINF FROM CAPE HORN TO FRISCO PHILLIDELPIIIA, July 23.

On several occasions, tho crew almost) snatched the bedy away from tho wo man by forco and it was only by her courage that provcnlcd tho sailors from carrying out their plans. San Francisco was Captiau Lorenz's home. 1 TO BE BUILT John F. Stevens Announces That the Great Northern Is to Build Snow Shed at Cost of $1,000,000 to Pre vent Further Loss of Life. PORTLAND, July 23.

JACKSON COUNTY'S CREDIT IS GOOD In the good old days you hear the mossbacks spoak of when "ycr could raise fat cattle without feedin' 'cm in ther winter, and didn't havo ter fight seventeen different kind o bugs to raise an apple," when one had a county warrant he chased around with it up ouo sido and down the other of Jacksonville main street, trying to persuado somebody to give him something for it. In those days when the county treasurer advertis ed that ho had "funds on hand," tho funds were for the redemption of warrants from six to eight years old, and the interest wasn't any small figure in the final settlement. It's difforent now and the county is only IS months behind and is getting closer and closer to the time when tho cash or checks will bo issued. County warrants now are a good in vestment at par or ubove. They are just the same as a bank note and bear interest, besides. County Treasurer Cronemiller Sat urday cashed the warrant for $1030, drawn a year and a half ago to pay for the steel vault and shelving in the county clerk's office. "The warrant was called u month ago," said Mr. Cronemiller, "and I begun to think perhaps it had been lost or overlook ed, but today Mrs. E. J. Kubli show ed up with it. She had been nway and her attention had just been drawn to the ad." GAYN0R PLAYS FARMHAND; STACKS NEIGHBOR'S WHEAT NEW YORK, July 25.
