A Mule and a Bicyclb. A band
' of horses and mules from the John
Day couutry, where bicycles are not
numorous, were being driven west
ward, bound fo market, and Frank
Chambeilaln, riding a wheel, encoun
tered them as ho wns descending a
grade east of Prineville. Thinking a
stampede the quickest way out of the
scrape, the daring bicyclist jerked back
the lever, opened tha throttle and
threw on all steam. All would have
ended well perhaps, bad it not been
,. for one lone mule, which, overcome
with fright or oussedness, stood pat.
He was a populist mule, anil remained
apparently screwed fast, "right in the
middle of .the road." There wns
neither time for turning to the right
nor left, much less a chance to jump
Trunk, hinve.la and ill. Crashed
squarely into the mule amidships. A
moment's admixture of legs, arms,
wire and ears, and Frank shot out in
one diraotion, the mule in anothe, and
what ia left of the bioycle caught on a
projecting limb of a neighboring pine
on its way down. The young map
says lie ia "done bicycling in tb.
, blasted mule country."
Thi P&jcflg Association. The Ore
gon Press Association met at Newport
last Saturday, and concluded its ses

was porhaps the bust attended of any
ever held in the state, and In the ab
straot, was a success. The following
ollluers for the ensuing year were
elected Monday: President, C, C.
Doughty, Dallas; first vioe-prosidunt,
A. W. Patterson, Heppuer; second
vice-president, A. N. Finder, Portland;
treasurer, Charles Nickel), Jackson
ville; secretary, Albert Togier, Port
land ; sergoaiit-at-nrms, John It. Borgia,
St. Helens. During the session Sen
ator Mitchell delivered a -very able ad
dress, touching upon the importance
of the pros! and explanatory of con
stitutional law, J be CorvalllB mule
quartet furnished music for the oc
casion. On Sunday the great clam
bake took pluce, which was attended
by not only the press, but by hun
dreds of others who oame from differ
ent parts of the Willamette valley to
wituess and enjoy the great event. An
ocoau voyage ou Sunday morning was
a feature long to be remembered by
those who indulged, and especially by
those who so liberally fed the fishes.
Taken all in all the short time spent
at Newport was greatly enjoyed by
those present. The place lor holding
the next annual meeting has not beeu
selected, the association deeming it
advisable to leave that matter in the
hands of the executive committee con
sisting of E. L. E. White, John R.
Boogie and W. II. Leeds. Tuesday
morning nearly all the party left for
their several homes feeling well repaid
for their trip with many expressions
of appreciation for the courtesies
shown them by the people of Newport
as well as to the officials of the differ
ent railroad companies over whose
line! they passed.
How to Kill Carp. A gentleman
who has a good canvasback laka on
Sauviua' island, which is being ruined
by the carp, which are eating up all
the wapaloes, has been endeavoring to
find out some practical way of killing
these obnoxious fish. He has written
to numerous persons in various parts
of the country, but has not found any
deadshot medicine which will clean
out his lake. A doctor now living In
California recommends him to try
"Cocculus Indicus," a berry which
stupefies or makes insane fish which
eat it, mixed with dough or otherwise.
He lelld of his experience in this line
when a boy, and what fun he had, and
recrela that he cannot be here to help
doso the carp with this "dope," and
enjoy the pleasure of watching them
culling capers while under its influ
ence. This scheme Is hardly practica
ble, for it is doubtful if enough of these
cockle seeds could be found to "go
round among the swarm of carp in
this lake. A scientist at the Smith
sonian institute writes that one of the
most effective methods of killing off
ttsh in large n tun burs is by putting
lime in the pond or water where they
are, and says that if the lake is not too
large and too deep, the carp in it can
probably be killed off in this manner
It is certain that enough lime in water
and it does not lake very much
will kill off fish, but just how much
lime it will take is the question. And
then, if the fish were all killed and left
to decay in the lake, what would be
the result. If only some big fish
could be found which would eat carp,
the problem of getting rid of them
might be solved.
In Days Gone By. Mr. J.N. Clark,
who died in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho,
some time ago, was .one of the most
celebrated Indian fighters during the
troubles with the aborigines in this
region. He lived on Bridge creek in
Grant county in 1806, and at one timH
hid in the brush on the creek wnue
hia housa whs being burned by hostile
Snakes. From bis place o( hiding he
watched his house go up in flames,
and narrowly escaped capture himself.
In company with Mr. Maupin who
then lived at Antolopa ha pursued
the Indians for a long distance ; but
thev eluded pursuit. The great war
chief of the Snakes was Paulina, and
Mauotn and Clark determined that he
should pay with his life for the raids
his band had made on the settlers. By
constant vlailauce they found the
cam d of Paulina, and. watching their
opportunity, killed bim. This ended
the Indian war in Grant county, as
aftsr the death of their chief the band
scsttered and left the country. After
this the settlements enjoyed peace,
and nothing further was heard of the
depredations of the Iukaa iu that re
gion. Without a leader the Indians
separated into isolated squads and
joined other members of the tribes
cAst ot the Blue mountains. Those
who have ceme to this country during
the last few yeara do not fully appre
ciate the difficulties encountered in
the first settlement of the country.
TtPivs Thn rreamerv at Barlow,
says the Observer, has been a surprise
to the farmers or mat vicinity ou uo
lieved that there was nothing to be
gained by the eetanusnment oi suun
an institution, and that iney couia
make as much money from butter the
old way as they could by selling milk
to the creamery. , Borne experiment
proved that they could make a pound
of butter from about thirty-five pounds
of milk, while the oreamery made the
same amount of butler from twenty
pounds of the same milk, or more than
a roll extra from one hundred pounds
of milk, which at selling price was at
least thirty five cents. This was a gain
of over ten cents per hundred, proviueu
the creamery is run on the plan of
other c-esmeries and the farmer would
have his skim milk returned to him.
That little difference would almost
keep a family where there are over
half a dosen cowa mimea.

TUB ASTORIA .RAILROAD:
Work Will Be Commenced at Once,
, Bays Mr, Hammond. t
Mr, A. B. Hammond received a telegram
laat night from his sttornsy, Mr. 0. W.
Fulton, of Astoria, which acquainted him
of the completion of tha subsidy for tbs
Aitoila-CloLle railroad, says Wednesday's

Information expected for some Hint, and
Insures the beginning of work on the pro

man of the commutes of direction:
"Pobtiahd, July 23.
"Ma yob Airsso Kisnsy, Astoria: Ful
ton has informed me your committee has
been successlul in closing the subsidy. I
will leave for Astoria tomorrow night to
commence work.
' (tinned) A, B. Hammomd."
Mr. Hammond's dispatch evidently
cautsd great rejoicing in Astoria. The
hard struggle the people of tbst city bsvs
bad to raiss the required subsidy, and tbeir
constant effort to secure rail connection
with the outside world, probably gives
them, as Mr. Hammond says, aressonabls
exeuse for sending tbs following enthus
iastic message:
'Astoria, July 23.
"A. B. Hamhomd. Portland: Witha Uod
speed you' and a token of luck and friend
ship from the people of Astoria, I add my
own -Uod bleu you," Mr. Hammond, ia
your every endeavor to bring us out of tbe
wilderness, and personally i will exert my
self in your behalf, and I promise tbs same
for our good people.
"Alfbed Kinssy, Mayor."
Mr. Hammond Informed an Oregonian
reporter last night tbat he expected to leave
toddy for Astoria, and tbat tbe contracts
for building tbs road would be awarded in
the very near future.
' It is sixty miles from Astoria to Ooble,
over the route surveyed," said Mr. Ham
mond, ''and we will have the road com
pleted Inside of s yesr. There will be no
delays now. We will build tbe road to
Ooble to connect with the Northern Pacific.
If suitable traffic arrangements cannot be
msde with the Northern Pacific, we will
extend the rosd into Portland. Astoria Is
now assured of a railroad. Tbe people of
tbat city have done their part; now I will
do mine,
"One thing I want to say," continued
Mr. Hammond, "and tbrt Is that the peo
ple of Astoria every one of them can
stand up and feel tbat tbeir individual work
secured the road. I never saw such patriot
ism and energy. Tbey deserve a railroad
if any community ever did. By our con
tract we are given three years to complete
tbe road. It will be finished during 1896."

A large number of teams are kept

essential that we have a wood flume
the same as those places. If, bow
ever, our wood dealers can make
money by hauling the wood to town,
it is better, as it furnishes employment
to a larger number of men.
"We had an epidemic of dysentery
in this vicinity last summer," says
Samuel S. Pollock, of Briceland, Cal.

ries to be shipped without labels. It
is easy to understand why the goods
are ordered thus, says the Post. Cali
fprnians have shipped Oregon fruits to
the eastern markets, lo, these many
Tears, and claimed and received credit
for them for California. It is the in
tention of this California firm to take
these Oregon cherries, label them in
California, and ship them east as Cal

of the credit justly her due. Mr. Wal
