young man thirty years of age, living
with his parents, and was regarded by
all who knew him as a very honest, up
right citizen. His wagon was loaded
with timber, and the horses became un
manageable, the - brake worked" loose,
throwing his brother off the wagdn,
when the team ran away, crushing
David on the load some way. Ho lived
but a 6hort time after the accident.

was to locate the exact spot from which
a sample of rock was obtained which he
has sent to the east and which is attract
ing considerable attention in the minds
of peo pie who aggregate substances
which compose the earth and expliin
the relations which the several constitu
ent masses bear to 'each other. This
picture may enable us to state at about
what time In the future another volcano
and possible earthquake is liable to be
produced at Mount Hood. From pres
ent indications one is nearly due.

MAY rilOVK FATAL.
Hut Little llope For The Kecorcry of
3Irt. If arrisun.
New York, Sept. 15. As a result of
the consultation of physicians at .Loon
Lake cottage yesterday on the condition,
of Mrs. Harrison, it is announced that
the primary disease is pulmonary tuber
culosis of the right side, associated with
nervous prostration. The recent com
plication is sub-acute pleurisy, with a
rapid effusion of water in the right chest,
necessitating two tappings with some re
lief. The present condition is critical on
account of a tendency to the reproduc
tion of fluid. Removal to Washington
is impossible. Prognostication as to tho
imn.cdiate future is.' uncertain.. The
president will remain with Mra. Harri
son until she gets better. . He -has no
other plans whatever. It is therefore
apparent that the president's stay ia in
definite. The physicians,, it is said,
have quietly intimated to tho president
the strong probability of a fatal result.
The president rarely leaves Mrs. Harri
son's bedside. In fact, ho really shares
the nursing of the" invalid with the pro
fessional attendant. Russell Harrison
and Mrs. McKee, the president's son
arid daughter, are also in constant atten
dance. It is understood that another
operationwill be performed this after-
noon. - .
