A. few days ago tbe Hotel Perkins in Port-) land WM sola to satiaiy a judgment which, with the coats snd interest, amounted to 1205,000, and is now un der ths personal management of Mr. C. W. Knowles, formerly of ths St. Charles. Mr. Knowles is, withont question, the most successful hotel man in the stste, and by bis long service in that line and very large range of acquaintances his personal popularity and familiarity witb the hotel business he will bring to tbe Perkins a large trade that has been divided between the other hotels of the metropolis. The 81. Charles, while under Mr. Knowles' manage ment, though ranking about fifth In point of modern equipment, did about one-half the first-class business, not because people particularly liked the house, but because Charley Knowles wm proprietor and his guests knew tbey would be well treated, and so we predict it will be with the Perkins. Hioh Watbe Possibilities. spec ulations are rife ss to what stage the river will reach before all danger of high water is over, but of course every thins- advanced regarding this is en- .n.n,.iilaa There ia no auea- tion but there is enough snow in the mountains drained by the Columbia to bring the river up to tbe 18M mark, ..J 11 turunrla nnnn how fast or how alowlv it shall melt. It extreme hot il In tha mount In. I.,. afaulra tha river could easily raise 30 feet more, and as it is now i reel, tins would mnae- aa im mense flood. With ihe river up as it is now an immense volume of water is passing off, but every lhaw tbat oc curs in tbe mountains tends to in crease the volume. Already having a rise of 32 feet there Is nothing to hin der its reaching 60 feet if the thaw is not checked, but this is not likely. At this season of the year continued hot weather is uncommon, and it is probable that before any extreme high water is reached the weather will turn cooler. It ia not likely that the river will reach more than 45 feet thi eon.
