Scheme to Irrigate
the Madras Country
A special dispatch from Madras to
the Portland Journal gays : "The irri
gation project known to the govern
ment as the "Crooked River" project ii
rapidly becoming more promising, ia
shown by the report of the Idaho capi
talists, composed of Messrt. G. B. Rog
ers, R. E. Rogers and R. Rounds of
Boise, Idaho, accompanied by D. O.
Stevenson, chief engineer of the party,
which has arrived in Madras from the
head waters and lakes of the Deschutes
river, where the party had been making
investigations as to the quantity of
water which might be available by stor
age for irrigation purposes. -'
This project should not be contused
with the government's Crooked river
schema, which had its storage reservoirs
at an entirely different location and
greatly inferior source of water supply.
The gentlemen are of the opinion that
ample water can be found for the irri
gation of 100,000 or more acres, which
will be found north of Crooked river,
composed of the Opal Prairie, Haystack
and Agency Plains districts, and other
small plains adjacent to the districts
above mentioned.
The plan of procedure, as outlined by
these gentlemen, is to make a storage
reservoir of Crescent lake, which has an
elevation of 6000 feet, and is fed by
numerous streams of the Cascade
mountains, and if this lake should not
furnish sufficient water for all irrigation
requirements Odell lake might be taken
into the scheme.
The water for this project will follow
the channel of the Deschutes river until
it reaches Cline falls, where it will be
taken out into a ditch, whose approxi
mate length will be 50 miles, crossing
Crooked nver near the surveys of the
Hamman and Hill railway lines, fol-,
lowing the contour of the country west
of Juniper Butte, thence north through
the Opal Prairie country to Madras,
crossing Willow Creek canvon near the
survey of the Deschutes railroad. From
the crossing the waters will be distri-
duted in laterals over Agency Plains
and over a considerable portion of the
rolling country east of these plains.
G. B. Rogers thinks the lands in this
project can be Irrigated at a cost of be
tween $40 and $50 per acre. The farm
ers of this section have been striving
long to interest the reclamation service
in this irrigation scheme and there is
every assurance that any reasonable of
fer by these gentlemen, should their
preliminary investigations crystalize
into fact, will be quickly taken up by
the eager ranchers.
The project is to be financed by an
issue of bonds which will be gold to
furnish funds for the development of
the scheme and as soom as the lien to
be held on the irrigated lands is paid off
by the settlers, the financiers of the
project will turn the property over to a
water users' association, which will
then take charge of the irrigation work.
The Rogers' have been interested in
several irrigation projects in Idaho
which have been carried to cuccessful
completion and operation, among which
are the Payette and Owyhee projects,
and they are not in the least exercised
about securing fundi to develop this
irrigation scheme.
The government has reserved tl e
waters of Crescent, Odell and other
lakes in that vicinity for irrigation pur
poses, including the surplus waters of
the Deschutes, and these gentlemen
have now in preparation a petition
which will be circulated in this section
asking the secretary of the interior to
permit the usage of tlieee lakes and
streams for irrigation purposes under
the Carey act. It is detired that these
petitions be very generally signed by
persons in the section north of Crooked
river, so that the reclamation service
may see that the undertaking of these
gentlemen is entirely approved by the
people to be served.
The preliminary investigations and
other preparations incident to a scheme
of this magnitude will have progressed
far enough by the completion of the
railroads into this section, it is thought
by the members of the party, so that
construction on the project and the
shipping of materials for reservoirs,
flumes and canals will be commenced in
due season.
FROM "THE ACORNJ
JUGGLERS OF INDIA.
To an ancient, pious tti-ahuian waa a
grandson born, Full of Joy at the5
NoaVjii ,,h!vh hml nptln bnitpcned. to
lils hotiee, he an Id: "1 will g out hence
snd tua.uk the Great Spirit and Father
of Nature, who hue tdeswed no. IVr-
hn he rony Rive me opportunity t
honor him, even through one good
deed."
So aix-e the Itrithmttti and went.
The t'Unsom of jure Joy la gratitude
and lis fruit W-uevolonee.
With the lively feeling of honoring
the great and bvnvfWtit eplrlt the old
man stopped Into tue Holds, and In the
shade of the trees earn of his thoughts
was prayer. Still apnrkled the drops
of a freshly fallen shower on stalks.
Noeutonia and leaves.
Although he had already aeen tha
spring ninety times Nature seemed to
him again made young and fairer, than
ever, for she grows not old to him who
reveres her Creator and rvoognle In
the figure the bvuovoleut Sculptor.
The old man set on tit way forward,
ami on the beaten path ho found an
acorn. Tha rain had already through
Its fertlllxing power sent 11' genu
forth, and the shell burst asunder, hut
It could not take root on the hard. hare
path. He stooped, took It up ami aald:
"How charming It is to he brought
thus far on my way, for easily Imdst
thou been trodden In piece by the
foot of the wanderer or withered by
the solar rays. Happy shall I be if I
can here do a gtxxl work and by deed
fulfill my Inward sentiment and the
aim of wise nature advance, who with
eaeh breath shows a benefit even tha
smallest thiuik fulness Is a sweet duty."
A youngster whb stood behlud the
oak tree and who had caught up the
words of the Hrahm.nn stepped for
ward and Jeering); smiled.
"Why smllest thour asked tbe old
man.
The youngster answered, "At thy
childish thought, my elder, that thou
canst rejoice at having rescued the
life of an acorn r
"Youngster," said tho rtnthruau, "how
art thou able to know my thoughts,
since today U the first time thou hast
seen uie? And why dont thou Jeer at
the small service which I Intend to
lierform to Nature? To her is the
acorn worth as muvb as the tree, and
without that this were not. Even
virtue, my son. begins with the little
and from this mouuts upward to tho
great, but the nearer she approaches
to the completion of the original even
so much the more she herself Inclines
to humility and simplicity, and then
to her la worth the smallest ns much
as the highest. Sends not Brahms,
too, his ray and dew on the blade of
grass as well as on the palm tree?"
Thus spoke the old man with friend
ly seriousness. The youngster silent
ly withdrew himself, full of venera
tion. He bad seen tho uoble old man
la his dignity, and he wished to bo
like him, for frivolity Itself must In
Its heart revere virtue.
The Brahman set forward on his way
to a bill which was overgrown round,
about with thorns. He met a peddler,
who asked: Thlukest thou that out
of an acorn thou canst rear a tree for
thyself? Thou wilt indeed scarcely
have the Joy of Its shade."
The old man answered: "Must one at
the planting think only on the shade
of the tree and on oneself? Does Na
ture so? My son, he who has not
planted earlier than and before yester
day finds In the planting Itaelf bis mo
tive and his Joy."
He came to the bill, on the peak of
which, among the thorns, ho burled
the acorn and covered It carefully over
with earth and moss.
'Why plantest thou among thorns?"
called out a herdsman oppoHite to him.
"Thou carest badly for thy nursling."
'Friend," replied the Brahman, "so
long as the little plant is tender and
small the thorns will shelter it from
raw winds sud Injury, and when It
grows up It will work a way through
for Itself, for it Is an oak. My son, I
have obtained this of Nature. The
good mother considers equally the ten
derness and strength of her foster chil
dren."
After the old man hnd completed his
work be trod gayly on tho way back
to his homestead. As he drew near to
bis hut his grandsons and great-grand
sons sprang toward him and asked.
"Where hast thou been so long?"
But he assembled them around blm
and recounted all which hnd happened
to him, and the Uttle children caressed
the old man while be spoke. The elder
ones, however, bung on bis lips and
barkened to him.
"Oh," said the old mnn when ho had
finished, "there Is certainly no place
fairer than In the lap of Nature, when
the father loves his offspring and in
the quiet circle of his family Is bo
loved by his children. Yes, love abound'
ing Brahma," cried he and glanced
upward to heaven, "In the quiet circle
of Nature and of domestic peace stands
thy holy templcr
The new planted oak soon grew forth
out of the germ and raised Itself up
above the thorns and became a spread
ing, shady tree. There died the old
man, and his loved ones burled blm on
the hill, and whenever they. saw the
tree and heard Its rustlings they were
mindful of the life and wise sayings
of the Brahman, even to tho latest
times, and recited from blm and
sought to become like blm, for tho
word of a wise man Is as a grain of
corn In fruitful ground. Boston Globe.
On of the Wonderful Fiats They Are

Two ico-ene old and emaciated,

THE SWISS PENSION.
Peculiar Manners at the Bearding
House Table d'Hot.
The distinctive 4Jilug about a Swiss
pension la the table d'hote. The table
d'hote has Its own set of conventions.
You run always toll an old pension
naire by the way ho sputters when be
cuts bis soup, by tho way he stabs a
piece of bread from the bread basket
with bis knife and by tbe keen eye
he has for picking out the beet piece
of meat. By some mysterious system,
known only to the maid, she always
offers you the platter with the fork
seductively placed In the smallest,
poorest potion. Your skilled pouatou
ualre Is never caught by this trick.
He always removes the fork from the
piece Indicated and rakes over every
thing till he finds the best. This Is not
impolite-In a peuaiou. It is tbe con
ventional thing.
In order to prevent any undue ad
vuntago the maid has a system of ro
tation. First she begins at the bead
of the table ami works down the
right side. With the next course she
Itcgtns at the foot and works up the
left side. If she forgets where she
stopped and begins wrong there Is an
Immediate bowl from tuiwe who are
getting cheated. This cause many
bitter and stormy arguments. Albert
Edwards In Outlook.
Equal te the Occasion.
MIchelot, the famous comedian, suf
fered a great deal from the spite of his
colleagues and found It necessary to
be on the alert at every performance.
On a certain occasion be bad to scold a
servant lu one of Mollero's plays, when
the "claque," which had been bribed
by his rivals, began to bins.
MIchelot wsa by no mean discon
certed. Giving the servant a couple of
blows on the car, not Included lu the
part, be extemporized as follows:
"You vile scamp of a varlet, there Is
nothing you think of! There you stand
quietly IMteoIng to tho vermin squeak
ing In the house and never trouble
yourself to get the rat poison f
The effect of this sally was striking.
The audience broke out 111 loud ap
plause, and no subsequent attempt was
made to hiss the actor.
Helping Him On.
Tbe somewhat elderly but still
bundsome and well preserved bachelor
had long been an admirer of the young
lady, but never bud dared to tell her
so. At last, however, he mustered
courage to say:
"MIhs Jessie, I wish I were twenty
years younger."
"Why so?" she asked.
"Because then 1 should be, bold
enough perhaps to ask you to marry
me."
With a charming smile she shook
her head.
"I should have to tell you no, Mr.
Baxter," she sold. "If you were twen
ty years younger you would be er a
groot deal too young for me."
He took the blnt-and a little while
later the young lady too.
Missed the Combination,
He is one of those gushing old bonus
who think flattery the key to favor
with tho gentler sex. Tho other even
ing he was at a reception with his
wife, aud they met the handsome Miss
Blank, at whom he fired a whole bat
tery of compliments. Then, turning
to his wife, he said, "It's a good thing
I didn't meet her before I married you,
my dear."
"Indeed It is," she smiled sweetly
"for her. I congratulate Miss Blank."
