phone are nearly evenly matched in
peed, and contest the right-of-way
daily on the Astoria route, sometimes

At the Cascade Looks.
A gontleman who was at Cascade
Locks Saturday made a nrettv thor
ough examination of the portage road
and the locks. He tells The Dalles
Chronicle that the road is not seriously
damuged, and that 11000 will put it in
good repair. The lower incline, or a
part ol It. floated, but as it waa in an
eddy all the timbers and rails drifted
back into the caunl, and were not lost.
The Duy brothers have repaired a por
tion oi tne roan, so they are now run
ning thuir cur as far down as the
lower end of the lock. It is thought
that the end of the incliue at the boat
lauding Is still in place. The damage
to the looks has been greatly overrated.
A short piece of the north guard wall
has gone out, and some of the masonry
near the mouth of tbe canal in the
north side, was undermined and fell
over into the canal. On the lower end,
from the steps on tbe south wall to
the lower breakwater, the rip-rap got
water-soaked, and slid down. Major
Post says that no more dry wall will
be laid, and the rip-rap will be replaced
by solid masonry. About fifty stone
outtert are at work, and a large num
ber of men are at work on the wall
getting it ready to lay the coping. The
work will be prosecuted vigorously,
and every man that can be used will
be put at work just as fust as the re
ceding waters will permit.
Bold Attack of a Cong-ar.
Quite a thrilling adventure took
place up the Wynooche last week. The
heorine, Mrs. George Evers, was hoe
ing in the garden when a cougar made
his appearance, coming towards her.
She started to retreat, walking back
wards. The cougar came close enough
to soring upon her, and was not scared
at hor brandishing tbe hoe. When he
was in striking distance she brought
the hoe down on his nose. This aot
caused the animal to retreat, upon
which she hastily entered the house
and called for assistance. Frank Pal
mer, a neighbor, was near, and pur
sued the cougar, firing two shots at
him. Me followed bini into the brush,
and disturbed another cougar. One
of them took refuge in an old root
house near bv. and a boy was sent
after a rifle. A second attack waa
thon made and Palmer succeeded in
killina- the cougar which had taken
refuse in the bouse. He was eoout
Ave feet in length, and was very poor,
rich orobably accounted tor his
boldness.
Mr. Mlnto Will be There.
Hon. John II. Minlo took the 11:17
