which is six miles above the cascade on

which wa in operation last season, will
first be used. The stone from the Mon
oghan quarry is pronounced to 1 first
class. It is now o late that but little
work win be done in the canal until Au
gust, when the river ia at low water
again. In the meantime the necessary
rock will all be quarried and hauled to
the vicinity of where it will be needed
Yesterday the two locomotives were
steamed up and were put to work haul
ing and placing material about the
yards, and the sheds are now being
cleaned up and put in readiness for use.
The outlook at present is promising that
work will be prosecuted with vigor.

ine asylum would be a very nice
thing for any one of the numerous com
petitora; but it should not and, of
course, w ill not be necessarily located in
the place offering the largest bonus and
making the strongest pull. It becomes
a weighty matter when it ia considered
that the w ell-being of hundreds of people
for many year are In the balance, af
flicted with a curse beside which every
ill take second rank. If the hot water
of Union will restore reason the more
quickly to the unfortunate sufferers from
mental aberration then Union ahould be
selected; if the lower yearly tempera
1 1' re-of Baker City It more conducive to
establish reason upon ber throne, by all
means let Baker City have it ; if Pendle
ton, Heppner or any of the contestants
have anything of especial and unique
value to offer a a health restorer let the
claim be duly considered. While The
Dalle would be pleased if awarded the
choice of the commission for the asylum,
it desires to gain it on'y if by so doing
the interests and well-being of the
atieots are better served. The opinion
of the asylum physicians, themselves,
composed of Dr. Rowland and the
two consulting physicians should be
valuable in this connection. All other
consideration can be fairly weighed by
the intelligent commission; but it is
within the province of this medical board
to determine what point is the best for
health, guided by their undoubted know
ledge of what conditions are best to res
tore canity and promote the general
health.

A few days since Tux Ciibomcle pub

obstructing the work at the locks. The
following letter, which we cheerfully

Cascadb Locks, March 30th, lSt'3.
En. Ciiko.mclk : My attention was
called to an article in your issue of 2olh
inst. stating that our relations with the
officer in charge at the lock were not
harmonious. On this point you were
misinformed, and we will esteem it a
favor if, in your next issue, you will
state, that in no case have we been de
nied trie use of any portion of the gov
ernment plant granted to a by the
terms of our contract. Every oppor
tunity to advance the work La been af

position to which he baa been assigned,!

Bunco Men mt Work.
During the past few day the union
depot ha been infested with confidence
men, a many as eight of them being
seen around at one time. One of these
"I-knew-your-uncle down the valley"
men forced his acquaintance upon a
well-dressed traveler yesterday morning,
and while telling him a funny story, re
lieved him of hi little roll, amounting
to 1-0. Thi is the first successful opera
tion that haa come to the notice of the
depot officials for tome time. The offi
cials can "spot" a confidence man every
time, and they never use much ceremony
in driving the slippery fellow from their
stamping-ground. Yesterday morning
four of them had been under surveillance
for tome time, but were lost track of
only for a few momenta, when they suc

80ME ANCIENT DEAD.
Queer Manner nf Harlal Adapted by
I'ennU 1'nknown ia lllntorr.
In the John Day rivers region are to
be een some very peculiarly constructed
burying place, evidently of a quite
ancient origin, and, of whose construc
tion it remain for future archeologists
to determine. The writer of this, a
number of yeart aince, discovered one of
these monument of an age long past in
the low Pine mountain, near the western
part of (irant county, and about twelve
mile north from old camp Watson
Thi mound, composed of the basal
tic rock o abundant in that region, waa
of conical form, about twenty feet in
diameter at the base, and had appar
ently originally been about ten feet in
height. The top of this queer pile was
covered to a depth of perhaps two feet
with ashes, and bones human bone aa
many piece were large enough to be
readily distinguished; alao many pieces
of flint and bone arrow heads, spear
heads, flint knives and other imple
ments and ornaments. On removing
the layer of flat ttonea constituting the
top, another layer of aehes, bones, etc
was found. This waa continued until
the bottom of the pile was reached,
when the skeletons of about twenty of
these unknown people were disclosed to
view. Thia lower and last layer was
not burned like the rest, but were very
fragile. Here was found some very good
pecimena of arrow heads, spear-heads,
piece of pipea nicely carved, and nu
merous other relict of stone and bone,
me remains were ol small aa well as
large persona, bones of email children
being found. They had apparently been
placed there systematically, aa the feet
were in every instance placed to the
east, witn ttie lace, toward the rising
sun. I afterward discovered two more
of these strange tombs near the banks of
the John Day river, and also another
one on Rock creek on the eastern aide of
the same river. These latter ones
did not investigate very closely, but
they presented the aame general
appearance as tbe one described, and it
waa an effort to have to pass them with
a casual examination, but I waa then
engaged in the pursuit of the oreodona,
entelodons, rhinoceros, etc., then
abounding in the magnificent fossil beds
of that region. It wonld be of great in
tereat to know just who these people
were, and the objects which led them to
adopt thia strange mode of disposing of
their dead. It ia strange that, with the
encouragement shown toward researches
of thia nature in the east, so very little
ia known of it here, where such aplendid
opportunity presents itself. Some one
will say, "Why doesn't he do it him
self!" I will tell you why : I have not
the money. That great requisite which
ia required of ua all in tbe acquirement
of useful knowledge for on reel f and
others, I possess very little of.
A finer field for research, in a scien
tific way, by one with means, energy
and taste, it would be hard to find than
is presented by our beautiful state, with
its generous wealth of all that goea to
make glad the heart of the lover of
the beauties, the wonders, and the mys
teries of the worka of a Divine Creator,
here awaiting his pleasure to unfold.
L. S. D.
Hard on Chlneae fheaennta.
The cold weather and heavy snows of
last winter were very hard on the Chinese
pheasants, and in fact on all the
feathered tribes. It was thought a great
many Mongolian pheasants had perished
from cold and hunger, but from what a
Vancouver paper aaya it would seem
that a great many had survived : "Chi
nese pheasants are very numerous on the
bottoms in spite of the hard winter. A
sportsman informed us that a cock could
be heard crowing in nearly every brush
pile or thicket last Sunday in his ram
bles, and dispute the theory that many
of these birds perished during the
winter."

Noon Train Late.
The 1 o'clock train, which ia generally
on time, did not arrive today, due to a
slide near Bonneville how extenaive
cannot be learned, but a wild rumor was
to the effect that it was abandoned.
This is impossible, for work will be
hastened as rapidly as jossible in clear
ing up the mass ol rock and the train
again started on its eastward way. Our
"noon" train is a model of regularity,
and we know that only the
severest kind of pressure will
prevent it from fulfilling Its daily
engagement. Its motto Is "better five
minutes early than five minutes late."
No Improvement.
The insane asylum at Salem now haa
among the patients a deaf mute. Her
name Is Miss Sophia Deckter. She ia DJ
yeart of age, and she came from The
Dalles. She waa born with what ia
known aa a malformation of the base of
the brain, which ia the cause of her in
sanity. She was taken to Salem about
five months ago and placed in the school
with hopes of her recovering her mind,
but at the end of that time she had not
even learned to distinguish the difference
between any of the letters of the alpha
bet. Astoria Examiner.
Unlit ns Charted.
The argument in tho trial for man
slaughter of Mra. Dr. Tom Vaun, waa
finished at 10 o'clock yesterday, and
Judge Munly's charge consumed 15
minutes. At 11:45 the jury returned a
verdict of guilty aa charged iu the in
dictment, and recommended the accused
woman to the court's mercy. She ac
cepted the verdict stolidly. Mr. McGinn
notified the court that he had secured
some new evidence which he desired to
present, and he waa granted ten daya in
which to file a motion for a new trial.
Good Poatniasters.
A,
page 22 of the Official Guide for
March, 1393, we find that three post
offices in Wasco county have been kept
in such manner aa to secure the special
commendation of the department' at
Washington. The three lucky, or rather
say diligent ones, are Antelope, Cascade
Locks and Wamic. We Venture to aay
that there are but few people who have
any idea of the care, diligence, pains
taking work and constant attention
required of fourth-class poetmasters
throughout there United States.
The Regulator.
And still the Regulator company ia
doing good for the people of Klickitat
county. They are about to enter into an
agreement with tbe stage line, R. B.
