L."Colvln, who enioy tha distinction of hauling log with tha most unique contrivance and the only one of its kind known to man. It I called a "Clutch machine." It i (he invention of a San Francisco man and i the first and only on ever built, although it i tba intention of its uuikisr, now that Mr, Colyin has dem onstrated it very superior quality a a ig nauier, u run m tactory to the limit of iu canauitv. helievins that the machine will- revolutionize the logging uumoess. : . , . N The machine I, In ' fuct, an Immense donkey t-ngine on whoels. The boiler Is five fret in diameter and ten feet high. The engine I enormously powerful. Although it requires a track to rnn on, it does not require an expenaive one, iu speed I limited to four mile an hour, or perhaps les, consequently tha rail mav ba made ot chm material: anv old chunks will do for tie and th ground need not be leveled for the track. Mr. Colvin i now haulimr a distance of two mile and states that hi road is very rough and ha many crook for the reason tbat it Is policy to avoid expense by going around isrge stump and other obstruction rather than remove them. Its sreatest claim to. favorable consid eration, however, i It adaptability for hauling np and down steep grades. Mr. Colvin is now hauling down the side oi a mountain where the rise is twentv even (eet to every 100 feet In length, and he experience no difficulty what ever. Notwithstanding his haul is two mile in length and the machine is gaited at four mile or le an hour, be can haul 100,000 feet per day and ha repeatedly done o. Now ha is yarding ing with a large engine and a bull team, yet he find them both totally inadequate to keep tli machine running. Next season he will nse three engine for yarding and expect to keep them very busy to keep tha machine at work. He ha at bl present location a half-sec tion ol nne or to log off and expect tne machine to pay for Itself several time before thl i done. The machine derive it name from a large wheel furnished with eight power ful clutches. These clutches operate on a larrs stationary steel cable which ia stretched alongside the track. Fiva ot these elutcbe are constantly pulling at the cable as fast as on let go another one iesea th cable. Thus, while it need I very limited. It rower is to enormous that it is almost impossible to furnish tb monster with a load. The upper end of tb cable fastened to a tree or stump, while the river end is held in olaoe bv a "dead man." Mr. Colvin' logging angina i located on a mall tributary of tba Columbia near westport. CLATSKANia ITEMS. Our cltlxen were creatly aurnrised to hear on last Friday that Mrs. Harvey Tingle, ot Quiney, had died the evening oeior. ena naa neeu a sunerer ihjiu goitre for year, but there had been nothing recently to tuggest a ipeedv fatal result, nntit th Bight (he died. Uer husband, beeomlntr alarmed that evening, aought assistance at hi broth er' and upon the arrival of hi brother, Harrison, he started out for a neigh Dor woman, and Mrs. Tinele' death oc curred during hi beeooe, no one but her husband being with her. Hue wa buried on Saturday at the cemetery near by. She wa a kilter of Finley Butter and survived by a few year her tatber and mother, whose remains lie in the same cemetery.

Georce Howltaon and Alex Cblsholm were passengers for St. Helens and Port land Tuesday morning. Mis Anna Orwtsr left in the storm Tuesday morning for Portland, on her way back to cchool at I'Mkoinatn. The whistle of the steamer Baker, the rlnffina- of bell and a little ahooting announced th passing of the old and tumenng in ot tne new year at uiaucame. The danoe In Conver' hall kept a number ot people awake to see the new year go out. The dancing did not close with the old year, however, as the exer cise held ite fascination for the perform era some hour Into the the new year. John Bryant haa cone back to Forest (irove to resume his studies. 8. C. Ticbenor. Fred Hlatt and Gu Player took advantage of a holiday to make a New Year's visit to th metrop olis. It is resorted that Fred Miller ha bought out th confectionery (tore ot W. r.. Washburn ana win enaeavor to sweeten the disposition ot thi com munity. Fred ha been engaged lately in making medicine to quiet cough and ranair liver, an occUDatlon tnat l occasionally resorted to when other things don't pan out well. Whether he will now sweeten the medicine with the candy ar invent another remedy to give after the emndv haa been eaten, does not yet appear. He has knowledge of the confectionery busmen, however, ana being a young man of energy, will, no doubt, work ud quite a business in his new line. 0. W.

A method of utilizing liquefied air on warship has been dis covered which will render the explosion of a magsslne, even when the ship Is in action, almost impossible. The method Is to so place the liquid air that it will freeise the ammunition to several hun dred degrees below cero. In that condi tion it could not explode, even if a shell did burst in th magazine.
