Dr. Ross Is the promoter of an affair
that will nflbrd unbounded pleasure
to those who are fortunate enough to
be permitted to participate. Tbe idea
is strictly original and is unique In its
conception. It cannot naaaitily fail to
be the aome of perfection In the pur
pose for which it 1 designed. Such
an Opportunity for downright enjoy
ment rarely presents itself to the peo
ple of Houlton, St, Helens, Warren,
Yankton, Columbia City and other
places, and if they fail this time to
participate there Is no telling when
such an opportunity will again pre
sent itself. It is a delightful moon
light rids on the popular steamer
Young America to Kalama and re
turn, the cost of which will be but a
mere 2D cent piece. The enjoyment
to be had will be worth four times the
price. The steamer will leave this
city at 1 o'clock sharp this (Friday)
evening, reach Kalama at 8 o'clock,
remain there until 8:30: return home
at 10 M. Refreshments will be served
on the steamer, snd the evening will
be one of unalloyed pleasure.
What might have been a much more
serious accident happened to James
Muokle, Jr., last Monday, while he was
on the Coweeman looking after his ex
tensiv logging interests there. He
was feeding salt to a number of young
horse when a near-by stub of a tree
broke from its trunk and crashed to
the ground with terrific force, Just be
hind the borsss. The crash startled
the colls, and they leaped with furious
fright in every direction, burling Mr.
Muekle to tbe rround, and a number
of them trampling over him. His right
leg, below the knee, was struck oy tne
foot of one of the horses, Inflicting a
painful and serious bruise, but no
bones were fractured. He was brought
to this city Tuesday, when his Injured
member was examined and treated.
Under favorable circumstances Mr.
Muckla will be able to be out in a week
or ten days.
Wash Muokle, Dan Vorhses, (J. K.
Blakesley),and Burt Whitney returned
Monday after an extended journey of
forty-eight hour' duration through the
Bunker hill region. The boy left town
on Thursday of last week with provis
ions enough to last nine weeks, ex
pecting not to return until the early
fall raius, but tbe heavy thunder storm
prevailing up east last Sunday was
mistaken by them for a visitation to
the Columbia of a Spanish cruiser,
bene their early return. Tbe boys
stated, however, that they bad about
decided to remain away for an indefi
nite period, or until it wa possible to
learn bow serious the bombardment
was, and upon arriving in town were
pleased to note that what they firmly
believed to be a naval oontest between
a Spanish cruiser and a few Columbia
river flabboata wa but an hallucina
tion. Teach a child a lesson thoroughly
and it will never forget it. Teach him
something every day about hi coun
try and Its Dag ana it win mate a pa
triot of him, ready at any time to fight
for it honor, if necessary, and to at all
time stand out for pur government
and the maintenance of the principles
of the constitution. The various school
boards in tbi county ahould require
each teacher to devote at least ten
minute every day in short talks about
the natioo's government, the flag, or
in singing soma one of the national
hymns. This is a neia mat snouia not
be ueglected, and the subject ahould
have it regular place in the daily
school program.
School Superintendent Copeland
was down from Warren last Saturday.
Mr. Copeland informed us that it waa
definitely settled that the annual teach
ers' institute for this county would be
held d urine the first week of August,
President Campbell and Prof. Hawley
f tbe State Normal School, at moo
mouth, will be io attendance, and tea-
lares of anew and varied character
will be Introduced. The session prom
ises to be one of more than ordinary
interest. The place of holding tbe in
stitute ha not yet been fully determ
ined. --
The News seem to be considerably
worried because the Tbi Mist ha un
dertaken to euggost a few improve
ment that would benefit our couoty
and town. The people of St. Helens
and Columbia county need not flatter
themselves that the News would ever
suggest an idea that would be of public
benefit or interest. It mission is not
that. Its sour-scented comment on
matters of general interest, and its gen
eral dog-in-the-manger style, makes
one' spinal column pain very near
the south end of it.
Monday's Oregonian says.- "Port
land would do well to give financial
ssistanoe to the project to build a
wagon road from the Nehalem valley
to a junction with the Portland-St,
Helen road at Soappoose. The Ne
halem valley is one of the most pro
ductive sections in Oregon. It popu
lation ia rapidly increasing, and Port
land should have ita trade."
Mary Ellen Lease is not coming to

talllon of the Vermont volunteers, light

ing te Mrs, Henrietta Htcuels, ol Pacific
0 rovs, Cel. There seems to bs considerable
romance attached to this wedding. ; The
groom had been lying at the point of death
for seme days. Thirty years ago tbaeoupl
were betrothed, but became sstranged, and
each married another. Mrs. Nichols, hear
ing of her old lover's illness, cams to marry
and take care of him, having abandant
means to do so. She has decided to ship
his remains to California tomorrow Bight
for Interment. Buno post, O. A. K., of
which deceased was a member, held funeral
servloes at ths Home today.
Deceased was well known in this eonnty,
having resided at Beappoose for several
years. His cherished pastime was that ol
trout-fishlug, and his numerous trips to the
mountain streams In this county brought
him in contact with many people, hence his
wide soqualntsnce. He left this city about
two years ago (or Boseburg, where be has
sines remained until the time of bis death.
To See Her Illinois Bome.
Mrs. Thomas Watts, a well-known lady,
living at Reuben, down ths Columbia, earns
ap on the steamer KeUogg yesterday on
her way to Chicago snd vicinity on a visit
to her sisters and ber old schoolmates,
whom she hod not seen (or many years.
Mrs. Watt was ths happiest passenger on
board of th Kellogg, as the boat steamed
from Beuben to Portland. At the landings
along the river her friends bad gathered to
bid her good-bye, as her acquaintances
seemed to be scattered alt along the river.
Her intention Is to return bome in eight
weeks. A pleasant visit is in store (or her.
Only one cloud is in tbe distance. When
a child, Mrs. Walts lived In ths East, snd
she was in mortal (ear of a thunder storm,
and her only apprehension yesterday - was
that there might be an old-fashioned thun
der storm, sad in that event she was sure
she could not overcome her old child habit
of hiding under the bed, Her friends bops
ber visit will not bs attended by any thun
der storras. Oregonian, Wednesday.

At Catlin, formerly called Maryavllle,
dlrently opposite Kelso. Wash., a large
wharf is being constructed. Tbe Kellogg
Transportation Company Is building a dock
there 400 feet long, on which will be erected
a warehouse 80x90 feet. The company Is
building this whsrf, not only for its own
use, but for the benefit of the eitisens snd
the large farming community as well.
Heretofore the farmers have been obliged
to carry their producs to Freeport, a dis
tance of two miles. In order to ship it to
Portland. Captain Kellogg, seeing the sa
nation, concluded to make the improve
ment at once, which is now under way
under his supervision. Tbe dock facilities
were greatly needed, and tbe entire com
munity is greatly ptsased with the improve
ment.
tfore Lumber for San Francisco.
The second lumber raft io be towed to
San Francisco, now building by tbe Inmsn-
Poulson Company, at Portland, is being
eenstrneted at a rapid rate, so as to have
it ready to go to sea before tbe fall gales be
gin to blow. Tbs raft built by the North
Pacific Lumber Company is tied up on the
esst bank of the river, near tbeold dry dock
in that city, awaiting the tugs which are to
tow it to San Francisco.

the crop averaging 80 bushels to the acre.
The machine does ths whole business, cuts,
threshes, and sacks the grain. It does tbs
work of eight men snd from 16 to 2i horses.
More Jobs Than Men.
Montesano ( Wash.) Vidette.
Employers of labor have to handle their
men with gloves-these days when there are
more situations than there are meu to nil
them. The entire crew of one of the steam
ers on the harbor threatened to quit one
day recently, unless one of tbe crew who
was discharged was retained. It is needless
to say he kept the Job.
