taken to Highland for burial on Thurs
day. Mr. Jones was a mill man, and
had a large "umber of close friends and
acquaintances in Clackamas county. He
had a Bister in eastern Oregon, and it

Thomas Crowley met with a piece of
good fortune, last week. Forty-seven
years ago his father gave him an old
muzzle-loading riflle. Mr. Crowley was
at that time a boy of ten. Just forty
years ago he sold this old gun to a party
in Cedar SpringB, this state. A few
days ago Mr. Crowley was in a second
hand store in this city when he found
the gun that he had parted with, forty
years ago. He immediately struck a
bargain with the keeper of the second
hand store, and bought the gun for fifty
cants. A hundred times that amount
would not buy the gun from him. The
gun is of the cap and ball variety,
such as was used In the middle part of
the last century.
The heavy rains of the past week have
put many of the streams of Clackamas
county out of their banks, and some of
the smaller ones are little less than
roaring mountain torrents. Reports
from the vicinity of Clear Creek, the
Molalla tiver, Milk Creek, and other
streams in the eastern sectiou, state that
they are very high.. "Water from the
Willamette has backed up the Aber
nathy and covered a good deal of the
public road north of town. Whole
acres of water cover much of the low
ground along this creek, and parties who
have come over the Abernathy road state
that they were forced to ride five or six
miles around in order to get into the
town. The Willamette has also been
and is yet very high, and a very few
inches more of water will put it up over
the street-car track, south of town.

Mwe Divorce Suits Filed in Cir
cuit Court.
Florence S. Wilcox brought suit in the
circuit court, Monday, through her at
torney for a divorce tainst her husband,
H. D. Wilcox, former city superintend
ent of echoola in Oregon City. The
charge is desertion. Mr. Wilcox re
signed his position before the beginning
of the term and shortly afterwards left

month alimony for the support of the
minor child.
T. B. Wallace has brought suit in the
circuit court against his wife, Martha A.
Wallace, for a divo ce on the grounds of
cruel and inhuman treatment. The
complaint states that the plaintiff was
married to the defendant at Aurora, N.
Y.. May 28, 1871, and that within a few
days after marriage the defendant began
and pursued a course of cruel and inhu
man treatment, and heaped upon him
intolerable abuse, which became more
violent and frequent during the years
tbey lived together; that defendant had
a violeat temper which she could not
control, and would heap personal indig
nities which rendered plaintiff's life bur
densome ; that the defendant insisted In
having the title of all coAmunity prop
erty in her name, and if he did not con
suit her wishes, would abuse plaintiff.
The complaint further alleges that in
the spring of 1895 the defendant said to
plaintiff in connection with other abuse
that "the sweetest music to my ears
would be to hear the clods drop on your
coffin' and applied the foregoing to
plaintiff ; that plaintiff was forced to
leave defendant in July, 1895, and has
since continued to live apart from ber

Paper Companies 1o Use Crude
Oil for Fuel.
The Willamette Pulp & Paper Com
pany and the Crown Paper Company
will in the near future ubb crude oil for
fuel in their mills in Oregon City. Con
tracts have already been made wHb
a California oil company, and while the
the mills havjB ben given until
J904 to get ready, it is provable they
will le able to use the new fuel by May
1,1903.
The two paper companies consume
175 cords of wood a day, which means
many thousand gallons of oil a day
when the change takes place. The
Pnnpr Comnanv will erect its
storage tanks here, and its reser voirs
will hold 400,000 gallons, giving the
company a Biipply for Z'i months. It
will be necessary to keep this large
amount of oil on hand, owing to the low
stage of water at the Clackamas rapids
during certain months of the year. As
the Willamette mills burn four times as
much wood their tanks will be much
larger, unless they piovide some means
ofBhipping the oil by ra 1 during low
water.
It baa been stated that a steamer will
be especially built to cany the 11
to the mills and will discharge the oil
direct to the resrvoirs by means of a
powerlul pump. Portland will likely
le made the base of supply, and the oil
company will , erect large tanks. The
National Transportation Company will
carry the oil from California on its
ocean tank steamers and its representa
tive is now in Portland looking for a
bite.
A Sew lioad Up the Bluff.
On Wednesday evening of next week,
BDRcial meeting of the city -council
will be held for the purpose of consider-1
ing the advisibility of ordering the
street commissioner to open the new
road op the bluff in the south part oi the
city. An ordinance exists covering this
improvement, and all that is needed is
action by th council. This matter of
giving the southern part of the city a
wagon road eastward has been thrashed
over not a little, and not a lew property
owners would be considerably benefited.
It is said that whereas the Wnger hill
grade Is nearly ten per cent, that of the
proposed piece ot road would be about
even. The estimated cost is about
13,000, of which citizens will directly
contribute one-half.
