Along the way for many miles old Mount Hood can be seen, and those who have not made the trip to Gov ernment Camp have no idea how grand the old mountain looks. From the Yocum Hotel we have the south side of the mountain, and is altogeth er different from the view we have from Oregon City or Portland, which is the west side. Yocum's Mountain View house Is reached by stage about 11:30. Here we find a hot dinner awaiting our ar rival, and to say that we have an ap petite Is "putting It light." Mrs. Yo cum is in charge of the resort, post office and store In connection. The mountain air at this point Is revlgor ating, and after a few days" rest from the trip by stage, the traveler Is ready to climb any kind of bill or Mount Hood. Itself. The Yocum falls which were dis covered by O. C. Yocum, and named after the old pioneer of Government Camp, are 60 ft. high. The trip to this fall Is about two miles from the Yo cum Hotel. They are reached by trail down a steep hill. Not far dis tant from the Yocum falls are the Zig ag falls, also noted for their beauty. Though not as high as the Yocum falls they compare ln grandeur ami scenery. The large amount of water which dashes over the mess covered rocks would tend to draw hundreds of visitors to view it were It more acces sible. Yocum Lake, which Is about one mile from Mountain View House, Mr. Yocum's home, is also visited by the many people during the summer. At this time of the year the water lilies are In bloom, and with Mount Hood In the background and with the reflection of the mountain in this lake, pre sents a beautiful scene. Several pic tures have been taken of this spot, during the summer and postals made therefrom. A short distance from Ibis lake Is the old home of Mr. Yocurat which was built In the year 1S92. The house is built of logs and is well pry- served, although It is not In use at present. The Summit, which Is owned by Judge Thomas F. Ryan, of this city, is about two miles from Government Camp. This land Is level, and is sur rounded by high mountains, but a good wagon road leads Into this and on to Eastern Oregon. If the proposed Mount Hood railroad is built, this will bring up the value of this land. At the summit Is a wigwam constructed of wood, and it Is stated by some of the old timers of that section that a man by the name of Campbell, who was a Christian, built this in order to have the Indians, who were numerous In that vicinity at that time, to come to hear him preach the gospel. Mr. Campbell thought by erecting the wig wam this would Interest them more than by having the religious services at his borne. At the summit are three graves, j choo EVQ which are well taken care of. One of these graves Is that of a Mr. Campbell, who was killed by a desperado. The man was guilty of horsestealing, and . was being sought by a party of men. I Mr. Campbell joined In the search. and was shot. His body was buried the graves of the departed oneg who are 8,wpng in the wilder- ness. The trip to the snow line of Mount Hood is taken by many of the visitors at Government Camp. The distance Is about four miles from Yocum Hotel, and much of the distance is a hard dumb through the sand and lava. The dead timber line Is reached about two miles from Yocum's, and after passing through this you reach live timber. Here you find shady nooks that are restful to the tired. After passing through the grove of firs, pines and other varieties of trees the camp Is reached where those who climb to the summit of Mount Hood, remain the night previous to climbing. After resting at that place for some time the trip on the mountain Is made to the White River Glacier, a distance of five miles from Government Camp, but seems like 20 miles before you reach the glacier. It Is a steady climb In the sand and over rocks. Many Ice cold streams flow down the mountain, and after resting at these places and quenching your thirst with the good tasting water, you are refreshed and feel that you could climb another mile, but It Isn't long before you find your breath Is leaving you and you have to stop for another rest. Mr. Yocum, who has not been at the Glacier since 1907, took a party to this place, acting as guide. He pointed out the different mountains at a dis tance, and to see this fine looking old patriarch mount one of the large rocks and to shade his eyes with his hands looking off at a distance, made many of the peopie he was guiding stop In their travel and admire the spectacle. Mr. Yocum enjoyed the trip across the mountain as well as the younger folks In the party. The Gla cier was reached after a hard climb. Mr. Yocum noted many changes ln It since his last visit there. By standing above the glacier you can hear the roar of White river below, but owing to the pack of Ice, snow and sand the river Is invisible. The trip through the snow to this point Is enjoyed by all, and snowballing and coasting were enjoyed by the members of the party. One of the noticeable features near the snow line of Mount Hood are the bright colored flowers that are now in bloom. There are many varieties of these, and nearer the snow line the brighter the shades are. The Indian pink, which is of a crimson color, grows In the sandy soli, and as far as you can see are these beautiful flora. The flower termed the cat's ear, are of a d'fferent color than grow here. They are of a cream col or and have a fragrance. It seems so strange to see these flowers blooming near the snow, and of the butterflies flitting through the air. The trip down the mountain seems al most as hard as making the ascent ex cept when sliding down the snow. Af ter enjoying snowballing and coasting on the mountain the party returned to the Yocum Hotel, where they en Joyed fresh strawberries picked from the Yocum gardens. These berries are just beginning to ripen, and are large and of delicious flavor. The wild strawberries are also ripening, and many have been gathered for winter use by the campers. The huckleberry patch, close by, has been visited by hundreds of people this year. Many of the Indians from the Warm Springs Reservation having made their headquarters there several weeks. The berries were scarce this year, and a tedious task to gather them. Those climbing Mount Hood from Government Camp start immediately after supper, and are given Alpine sticks by the guides at their camp near Mountain View House. The par ty starts for the tent at the timber line, where they remain for the night in the tent provided by the guides. Elisha Coleman and S. Miles. At the dawn of day the party is given a breakfast, which Is prepared by Mr. Coleman and Mr. Miles. The start Is then made for the summTL The guides, who are experienced", use every precaution to prevent an acci dent to the party. Mr. Coleman leads the party and Is followed by his as sistant. Mr. Miles. There are several dangerous places ln climbing, one near the crater and the other across the crevasse. At the latter place ladders are used. The depth of the crevasse has never been determined, and any one falling Into this Is sure to meet death. At noon dinner Is served near the crater. Near this point the heat that Issues therefrom Is Intense. A rest Is given the mem bers of the party until they feel they can again climb. As soon as the sum mit of the mountain Ig reached the guides or those In the party flash to those who are at the Government Camp anxiously awaiting their ascent. On a clear day the SIsklyous In Cali fornia, Mount Jefferson, In Washing ton, Mt. Adams, Washington, Three Sisters, and other mountain peaks can be seen, besides the wheat fields ln Eastern Oregon. The parties that make the trip usually return early ln the evening, tired and hungry. Mr. Yocum, who Is probably the old est guide ln the Northwest, relates many Interesting trips he has taken on the mountain. While guiding a party'on August 20, 1900, on the mountain, they encountered a severe electrical storm. The party left Gov eminent Camp at 3:30 A. M.. and the crater was reached at 8:30 A. M. Af ter the usual rest waB given at this point the party proceeded on Its way, and succeeded In crossing the crevasse. The sky was cloudless, ana an Ideal day for making the ascent. until the party crossed up the steep zig zag trail to the summit. Soon af ter reaching the top the party noticed a cloud settling down and covering the ascent. Soon after a drizzle of sleet and snow came upon them. A most magnificent view was obtained of a thunder and lightning storm on the north and eastern slopes, when Wasco County seemed to be receiving a tremendous downpour. The thunder cloud soon drifted over the summit and charging the mountain with elec tricity, such that when the Alpine sticks carried by the party were held above their heads they whizzed and sang like telegraph poles. Several members of the party experienced un comfortable electric Bhoeks. The guide thinking It dangerous to keep his party longer on the mountain, started down the steep grade and reached camp feeling none the worse for their experience. Trafton Dye, of this city, was a member of the party at this time, and well remembers his experience In the electrical storm. There was an unusual large amount of snowfall at Government Camp last year, the snow having a depth of 04 Inches, and Mr. Yocum was compelled to don skees ln order to do the neces sary chores around his place, but. this the ohl mount iilnoor enjoyed, ns It re minded him of earlier days when h descended Mount Hood In tlllH man nor, The deepest Rtiow Hint Govern ment Cntnp tins experienced wan In the yours 1S92 and IS'.KI. nt (lint Hmo It was 13 (cot (loop.

Mr. Yocum mado bis first trip up tho mountain on tho tilth day of July. 1SS:1. taking with him a party com posed of William Starr, .lara Vansooy. Mtss Alice Mnlone. Miss Jennie Trigg. R. C. Hamshy mid l)r. Royal. Perry Vlckors. who was tho regular guide at that time, wished to take the party to the summit providing they pay him $:T. each. Tho members did not rare I to pav such an exorbitant price, and ! asked' Mr. Yocmn. who was familiar with the mountain, to guide them. Mr. Yocum consented to do so. and the trip was successfully mado. In tho year of 1SSII Mr. Yocum decided to act ns guide of tho mountain, nnd noted In that capacity until tho year 11107. when his health and ate forced him to give up tho work. Purlng bis travels up the mountain as guide, he has never bad an accident befall nny of his party. The old mountaineer, as ho may well bo termed, says that he wants to climb to the summit once more before he dies, and It Is prob able that his wish can bo granted. for on the day ho guided the party to the White River Glacier, a week ago he stood the trip bettor than ninny of the younger members of th party Manv theories have arisen as to Government Cnmp receiving Its name According to old traditions the place is named Government t amp on uc count of the soldiers who came through to that Kilnt. and the artillery cached there. George H. Mimes, sec rotary of the Oregon Historical So clety. of Portland, thinks thnt tin probabilities are that the government wagons were taken from The Dalles and left there and afterwnrd taken by the settlers. O. S. Yocum. who Is one of the Ore gon pioneers, was born In Springfield. III., and came across the plains with his parents In the year 1S47. coming to Oregon by way of the old Harlow road, which passes along his present home. At that time little did this old patriarch realize that this would be his home in his declining days, us he passed along with his ox team seated by his father and mother. The family located at Fort Yamhill near the ("oast mountains till the year 18fif They afterwards moved near Hellvue postofllce eight miles from McMInn vllle. In IS'.S Mr. Yocum went to l.a fayette, where he learned the mercati tile business. After remaining ut that place for two years he went to Port land, where he took up the photograph business, and aftervard accepted position as landscape artist for the North Pacific Transcontinental Com pany a branch of the Northern Pacific Company for the acquisition of land At that time Villard was president of the company. He remained with the railroad company until tho year of 1688. when he opened a photograph studio In Portland. After building up a large trade he sold out and In 182 decided to take up a homestead. He went to what Is now Government Camp and erected a log cabin, which still remains on his land. After re siding In his cabin for several years he built a larger house, where he Is at present living. The Yocum's at tending physician in Illinois was Dr. Todd, father of the wife of Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Youum well remembers when Abraham Lincoln and Miss Todd were married and the bride and groom came out to visit his parents. The pawpaws were ripe at the time, and while they were eating the delicious fruit Mrs. Lincoln amused herself by pelting her husband's new linen dust er, greatly to the amusement of little Olive Yocum (Mr. Yocum). Mr. Yo cum says that he never forgets how tall Lincoln was and how he laughed As a mountain guide, Mr. Yocum comes by It from generations back Mrs. Dye, In collecting material for her book, "The Conquest," heard of a family by name of Yocum who were mountain guides In the Allegheny mountains 100 years ago, when the first pioneers were coming over the Allegheny mountains to Kentucky, Ohio and Mississippi valleys. These, Mr. Yocum says, were relative of his. Mr. Yocum Is a scholar In Eng lish, Latin, Greek and SpanlBh, and will take up the study of the Greek language this coming winter. As long as old Mount Hood standH the name of Yocum will live. LOST In the city, a gold fob-charm, ruby Bet. Finder leave at Post Of fice and receive $1.00 reward.
