iouiii Winters, a young man employed
on a farm at Itockwood, a place about 10
miles east of Portland, bad a narrow
ecae from drowning in an old well
Sunday. Winters was drawing water
from thu well, when the planking gave
way, and he fell into the water, which
wa about eight foot deep, carrying some
of the plank with him. l!y strenuous
exertion, Winter managed to keep hi
head almve the water until he could get
a safe hold on the timbers. Then he
attempted to climb out, but when half
way to thn top, again fell to the bottom.
Several such effort had no better re
sult. He called lustily for help, but no
one heard him. He made the Is'st of
the situation, and arranging some
plank about the well, remained in the
frigid water for nearly five hour, when
Mr. W. B. Steele, of (iresham, happened
along. He noticed that the well had
partly caved in, and mi investigating,
saw Winters in the water, with hi head
resting on a plunk.
The young man was nearly fro.en to
death, and was unable to give more
than a faint res ponce to Mr. Steele's
calls. Mr. Steele procured a rope and
sent for assistance. A man was let
down in the well in a buskot, and tied a
ropeurotind Winter' body, and he wa
hoisted op. When taken to his home,
Winters was nearly lifeless, but prompt
measures revived him. He is still very
weak, but will recover. Oregoninn.

The fact that Jndge Ilradshaw would
render a decision in the matter of the
application of Maloney and Snelling for
a new trial, filled the court house this
morning. Afler an exhaustive exposi
tion of the laws regarding the effect of
new ly discovered evidence, Judge Prad-
shaw denied the motion for a new trial.
The prisoners were then asked if they
had anything to say wjiy they should
not receive sentence. They ench replied
firmly that they had not. Judge Ben
nett and lion. K. It. Dufur each spoke
in behalf of the defendants, after which
Judge Bradnhaw spoke very feelingly of
his long acquaintance with Snelling and
bla family, and the high esteem be bold
them In, of the fact that be had known
fenolling ever since his boyhood ; of his
acquaintance with Maloney and of these
circumstance that rendered hi duty a
sad and solemn one. In conclusion the
judge pronounced sentence of one year
each in the penitentiary. Judge Bennett
gave notice that be would make applica
tion for a "certificate of probable cause,"
in order to get of stay of proceeding.
Moavy la Hlfht.
A cyclone of silence has struck the
city. For tbe past few days there has
not Wen any business doing of any
kind. This condition of affairs cannot
last long, bnt with nearly all tne rail
roud employes idle and tbe farmers busy
at borne getting ready for harvest it
makes it temjiorarily pretty rocky. As
soon as some transportation route in
open no that wool can find a market
things will get bettor here. F'.ven at
the low prices of wool there Is half a
million dollars worth of that product in
our warehouses, the money for which
would como exceedingly handy Hiid
would stimulate business.
Can't Urt TUlr Time lirk.
About 120 men who have been work
ing for tne Union Pacific are lying idle
here, although anxious to get out to
work in the harvest fields. They are
wailing for their checks most of them
having only a paper Identifying them.
The men have earned their money and
should have it, or at least the evidence
that they have it coming, for the time
checks can be used in buying supplies.
There is no reason on earth why the
time checks should not be issued, and
we certainly have enough trouble in the
labor quarrels already existing without
having any more stirred up for un.
A Cowardly Attark.
A private telegram last night was to
the effect that the strikers at Sacra
mento had barricaded the railroad track
over which U. S. troops were being sent
to that city. They then went down the
track a couple of hundred yards, and as
the train ran by shot the engineer. The
train was ditched and the strikers
attacked the soldiers as they craw led out
of the wreck. Six aoldicr were killed,
and their comrades rallying opened fire
on the strikers with what result is not
definitely known, but six or seven of the
latter are reported killed.

of the department through Northern
California and Oregon, tlong the east
side of the Cascade Range. His mission
was to collect bulbs, plants and speci
mens of forest trees. He started from
the top of the Siskiyoud on horseback,
and descended into the Shasta valley,
and followed up the south side of the
Klamath river tp the wild and broken
section where the Siskiyou, Cascade
and Sierra Nevada mountain meet.
Thence he struck across to lower
Klamath lake, and, cruising through
marshes, mountain and lake borders,
came to Linkville. From there he pro
ceeded west by Big Klamath lake and
marsh and the Indian reservation and
over the divide to the Dea Chutes river.
He followed the stream pretty closely
to Farewell Bend, thence to Prineville,
Trout creek and Bake Oven to Sherar's
Bridge on the Dea Chhte, and so on to
The Dalle and Portland.
During tbe trip Mr. Johnson traveled
on horseback and in wagon over 500
miles, staying sometime two or three
day ia a place. The results of his trip
were quite satisfactory, for, although he
did not find so many varieties of plant
a he expected, be came across some
very rare and beautiful specimen which
he did not expect to come across. He
was much interested in the many water
plants found in the marshes about Kid
math lakes, and the edible roots used
by the Indians, among which are the
wocus, wapatoo, nunus, camas, etc. Of
some of these be made collections. The
wocus is a species of water lily, having
root as big as a man's leg. Thev are
cooked and eaten by the Indians. The
wapatoo, belonging to the order of Sag
ittaria, and the camas a species of wild
hyacinth, are familiar to all old resi
dents of Oregon.
Mr. Johnson collected some 200 young !
pines of the Lodge Pole variety. Ho
collected many specimens of woods of
small grow th, including severaj varie
ties of mahogany. Mr. Johnson was
astonished at the number of wild fruits
be found in this section currants,
gooseberries, wild cherries and plums,
many of them palatable. The only nut
trees are the chincapin and hael. Mr.
Johnson knows w here there is a hazel
"tree"' near the foot of the coast range,
which is fifty feet in height and five
inches in diameter.
