Tho Electric Company had recently
uiiilta bulkhead at the foot of the new
extension to the nower house about 100
feet below where the old bulkhead stood
with the intention of extending the feed
canal the whole length ot the power
station, and day and night for a week
the work of taktrg out rock at the foot
of the old bulkhead had been going on,
until it was thought sufficient rock had
been removed to permit the taking out
of the timbers which wss to have been
done Tuesday nihl, after the water had
! been allowed to fill the space below so
as to equalise the pressure of the dam.
Tuesday moruir a gang of nine men
under Tom Smith, as foreman went
down to cut the bolls that held the
bracing timbers preparatory to removing
them in the evening Hut the timbers
had evidently rotted more than the co m
pany was aware of for just before neon
they gave way under the strain with
the rvsult narrated above.
Fred and Theodore Miller, P.O. E.
Co. boys, emplojed in Station B we e
among the first to arrive after the acci
dent and, ailliuut slot ping to consider
the consequences, sprang Into the water
among the timbers and did heroic work
in rescuing the unfortunate victims.

hands at work to find the bodies of the
missing men. Supt. Pierce of the Wil

generously sent thair men to asist in
clearing away the debris but it was in
such a tangled mass that it was irampos
sidle to do anything with it with the
water off, so it was turned on again and
the timpers taken out by means of
arge derrick. The work of clearing the
basin was continued without interruption
and at 3 o doc a. m. Wednesday morn

covered. The search for McComb's

Kegolar Moremtier Term to be Convened
Next Monday.
Hon. Thomas A. McBride, judge of
the fourth judicial district, is in Astoria
this week holding an adjourned term of
court for Clatsop county. On next Mon
day, November 1st, he will commence
the regular fall term for Clackamas
county.
The docket contains 244 ca-wi, 03 of
which are law, 130 equity, and 10 crimi
nal. Of the equity cases 23 are suits for
divorce, in 15 of which the wife appears
as plaintiff, and in eight the husband,
showing that women either do more kick
ing or have more cause for complaint
than men. For all the docket is so large
but few :ases were carried over from '
last term. When Judge McBride ad
journed court in the different counties of
tliis district lat July the dockets wjre
nearer clear of all than they had been be
fore in years, but hard times and other
causes have had the effect to multiply
litigation.
There are five persons in jail awaiting
the action of the grand jury.
Charles Thompson, for horsestealing
and Richard Kubisch, held as a witness
against Thompson.
James Fay, a hobo, held on a charge
of sodomy, and Walter Prudence, a wit
ness against Fay.
Brace Minkler for horsestealing.

month's sentence for indecent exposure,

Something to Depend On.
Mr. James Jones, of the druit firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, 111., in speaking
of Dr. King's New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
La Grippe, and her case grew so Berious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. It seemed to
develop into hasty consumption. Hav
Ing Dr. King's New Discovery in the
store, and selling lots of it, he took a
bottle home, and to the surprise of all
she began to get Hettei from first dose,
and half dozen dollar bottles cured her
sound and well. Dr. King's New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds is guaranteed to do this good work.
