HARRY BKADEN'B EXPERIENCE.
Threw a Lighted Match Into a Oas
Tank.
About 1 o'olock last evening a lond ex
plosion at the corner of East Ninth and East
Couch streets startled the East Side and
several hundrsd persons rushed to the scene
imagining some great catastrophe bad
happened.
The noles was oauted by the bunting ef
an asphaltum tank resulting from the ap
plication of a match by Hsryy Braden, the
7-year-old son of William Braden, living at
40 East Tenth street North.
The Braden boy, in company with anoth
er boy, Ed. Humphry, bad been playing on
a vacant lot where two of the tanks had
been recently left, and removed the plug of
one of them to see what It contained. At
It appeared to bs empty they dropped a
lighted match Into the vent hole.
The result was ditastrout to young Brad
en, as well at to the tank. Both ends of the
tank were blown several hundred feat, and
tbs boy wss thrown fully twenty feet away.
His clothing alto caught tire.
A great crowd toon gathereB. Dr. K. H.
Parker waa summoned. He found the boy
to hsvs been badly burned from the kneet
upward ta his breast, the left thigh having
suffered the most. His stomach was also
severely scorched, and the Beth was slight
ly lacerated la several places. So bones
were broken.
The two tankt belonged to a street con
tractor aud had oontulned asphaltum,
When emptied they were rinsed out with
henxtne and stored In an old shed. A few
weeks ago ths shed was torn down and the
tanks were rolled out upon the vacant lot
looking harmloss enough, but the bentlne
sad asphaltum, aided by the sun, bad form
Art a oaa which caused the explosion. Ths
tanks are of boiler iron, the ends being tss-
tn,1 with about fifty rivets each. Ths
force of the explosion can be Imagined when
It Is seen that both ends were blown com

But the "Animal" Is Hlahleid, Under
Treatment of a Veterinary.
Dr. Cliff is ths owner of a well developed
bicycle, and be stands on the street Con
ner! now proclaiming the fact that he "hat
learned" to ride; not "am learning," yet It
Is observed that the doctor stilt clings to
ins norse and cart when bs answers profes
sional calls. But that Is the doctor's butl-
Instt. We presume be knows wbsn he
sad bis patients are better on.
Tbe doctor was called eat of town one
dsy the latter part of last week, and was an
ient longer than was thought necessary by
soma of bis friends, and It was hastily
whlspsred about town that Doo and tbe bi
cycle might be In trouble, bat he returned
all right, and when wa mentioned to him
the alarm that had been feit for bis saf
ety, be purchased half s dozen of Boss'
best cigars, led ut to tbs edge of tbs bluff
overlooking ths Columbia, and there, out
of ths darkness which entombed ns, and
after exacting from us a promise never to re
veal any of the mysteries surrounding that
trip by bloyole, be related, in substance, ths
following story:
"Possibly, Davis, the feeling of unsafely
for me grew out of tbe fact that I bars
Isaroed to rids a bicycle. I ssy "bave
learned," not "am learning." Learned In
one lesson, all by myself. Went out yes
terday evening to learn, having first locked
my family in the houta. and forbade them
to look out of tbe windows. Led my bi
cycle out on the long bridge yon know
he smooth that bridge is since I was
elected to the council and bad it repaired
It's a young bicycle a colt foaled in 1897.
Would give tbe asms but for ths fact that
I bad to pay for tbe wheel. Will only say
therefore, in accordance with tbe ethics of
my profession, that it Is net the wheel Jim
Bice said it was.
I held tbe thing by the withers right In
ths middle of the road, and mounted with
out astletanoe.
I dismounted In the same Independent
manaerl Got on again and proceeded to
break hlra to saddle. Did I ride tbe first
timet Well, If I didn't I don't know bow
to expreet myself.
"People bad told me liars of all ages
and sexes that I couldn't fall if, when I
felt that I was falling, I would stick out my
foot. I stuck out both feet and both hands
and fell on my hsad.
I foil on one tide of thatdiabollcal wheel
and then on the other; I fell on both sldot
at once; I fell on top of it and underneath
It, (have another cigar) I made "dog falls"
with It I fell between tbe wheels; I feel
behind tbe bind wheel and before the front
wheel at tbe same time, and I don't know
yet how I did it. I fell and thrust both
legs through tbe spokes of one wheel.
By this time I had got pretty well np ths
road toward Milton bridge, when I met a
terrified man In a buggy, and drove him
clear off the road and up through that basal
grove toward Lin Meeker's place, at Hoal-
ton, and I don't think ho bst come back
yet. Every time I fell I slapped the palms
of my raw, swollen, throbbing bands on
thsnnineeow piles of basalt, except ths
time I fell on my besd. I fell harder and
with greater variety of . landing than any
man could fall, unless ke fell out of a bal
loon and lit in a load oi furniture.
'I lost my confidence, my patience, my
temper, my clamps, lamp, bell and reputa
tion, I brsse one peddle, tbe saddle, aau
the ordinance I helped to enact against
load, boisterous and abusive language
within three miles of the city limits. I
ran Into everything in tight except the mid
dle of tbe road. I sat down on everything
In this township except ths saddle ol that
bicycle. I "soorched" in a circle not
fifteen feet la circumference until I could
smell brimstone. I made more revolutions
thsn a South American republic, and I
didn't gst back until late this afternoon.
"I bavn't been so mauled and abraded,
to thumped and beaten, so trampled upon
and pounded, to bruised and scratched
tines my last trip In the interior of Aus
tralia, Just before leaving for America.
Bat I can ride. I don't say that I "do,"
bat "can."
"Do I consider "biking" good for the
health
"For tbe health of some people, I do. I
don't see hew a physician can bring np bit
family unless he recommends bicyole rid
ing. But In my own case I reseve my de
cision. I will wait until I know whether I
am going to die or get well. And say. Dave,
if this experience results disastrously to
me von mar tell the whole story In my
obituary.
"But! wouldn't mind to know what be
came of my aheuldtr-blade the time I ran
under trial nay-raca.

. Big Yield, of Wheat,
A gentleman who has Just returned from
a trip down tbe valley and speat consider
able time among tbe farmers of Linn county
expresses the opinion that Oreg ou't wheat
yield will surpass even tbe moat sanguine
sxpectatloat of tbe most optimistic.
Harvesting," said he, '"Is already well
advanced, and the farmers are Jubilant over
the prospects of an unprecedented yield
The grain does not only stand thick, bnt
the kernels are thick and heavy. Tbe av
rage yield ot fall wheat will aot fall below
30 bushels to tbs acre, while in some fields
ths 40 notch will be reached. Bprlng grain
Is slto looking fine, and will go about 20 to
25 bntbels to the acre. Oats sad otber
grains, not so extensively raised, look up
equally as well. An old farmer, who has
farmed in Linn county for the past 29 years
makes the declaration that the wheat of the
Willamette valley will tbit year be of as fine
a quality and high a grade as that raised In
any part of ths world.
A great deal of new machinery Is being
bonght and ths country an bat air of pros
perity such as it bos not known in some
years. Tbe warehouses along the line of
the Southern Pacific are being renovated
and overhauled, and toon will be groaning
under the weight of Oregon's bounteous
yield.
Bnt little wheat has been damaged.
Along tbe foothills bordering the Upper 8an-
tiaru the destructive aphis bat done some
mischief with the late grain, bnt the lots
from that source will be comparatively
trifling.
"There la little complaint of a scarcity of
belp, aa many Californiant, driven from
their state by tbe failure of crops, resulting
from drouths, are flocking into the fertil e
valley of the Willamette by the hundreds.
This Is the year for Oregon to shine, and if,
from tbe standpoint of crops as based npon
acreage, she does not prove the banneratate
of the Union, I will miss my guess." Tele
