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. MaWuiry anil Knelling; Otl Oni Tear. 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. Kval Kitlat MoTpmrnla.

Johnson, says the Ore gonian, agent of the department of forestry, who had charge of Oregon's forestry exhibit at Chicago, has returned from a seven weeks' trip in the interest COBHtT JOLES, COLLINS & GO. -AjFIjEJ Back at Their Old Stand, 390-394 SECOND STREET, Where they will be pleased to see all their old patrons. 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.
