ROY RABER'S DREDGE.
HAS BEEN BUILT IN PORTLAND
AND SHIPPED TO SNAKE
RIVER.

tion Oiher News.
Portland, July II The Orego
niau says: Jjeeph Supple will ship
four car loads of the parts of a
d red s?e today for dsn's Ferry, on
Snake River. Idaho, and will fol
low this shipment up with men
and material tor settiDg
up the dredge at that place. Tbin
dredge is for m'.niag on the sand
bars io Snake River, and it will be
the large3t and most complete ever
built for the. Snake River. It con
tains some apparatus for savipg the
fine gold in the bars in the river.
The dredge is for N. L. Kber &
Company. It will be 40x100 fett
in dimension, and will be very
8 rottelv built. Mr. Raber is now
in Chicago ordering the machinery,
which alone will cost $50,000. Mr
Supple said yesterday that the com
pans' which M.. Raber represerts
has ample means, and so much con
fidetice in Mr. Rabsr's new methods
in dredge construction that it has
furnished him with al the money
required to bnild and equip the
boat as a tirst-claES gold saver.
Mr. Raber says that the dredges
oa Snake River lise more gold
than they save, but he has develop
ed some new ideas by which he is
confident that he will change all
this and save the fine gold in these
river bars, In the single iem of
sifting and sluicing in the new
dredge 3000 feet of burlap is used,
whita in the other dredges not more
than 300 feet is used. The parts
of the bout have about all been
made here, and will be quick y put
together at Glenn's Ferry. With
the improvements in the way of
saving the fine gold abounding in
(he sandbars on Snake River there
wi i be a revolution in this kind of
mining.
A email launch and a barge will
al.-o be built to go with the large
boat. When this dredge is complet
ed and lit operation, Mr. Raber will
have 8 vera 1 more built oa the same
line?. Thy will probably be built
in Portland in parts knocked down

The little town of Devon, Mingo
county, was the scene 'esterday of
the as-iaulting of a little 14 year
old girl by a negro, followed by his
jqbsrquent lynching by an enraged
mob numbering over 200 men.
The little girl was caught a short
distance from her home by the ne
gro, and carried to a neighboring
wood where she was tied to a tree.
bound and gagged. Her absence
was noticed by the reign bors, who
immediately formed themselves in
to a searcning Darcy. sue was
found in an almost dying condition,
but was able to tell to the horror
stricken searchers the story.
Wild were the cries for vengeance
when' the - little girl's Btory was
heard, but after a short consulta
tion, it was decided to lay in wait
for the fiend, Iu a short time he
appeared and was just renewing his
assault upon the helpless child
when the entire mob of 'concealed
searchers emerged and made for
him. He would have been torn
limb from limb on the spot, but the
horrible crime of the negro demand
ed a more cruel death, and the cool
heads kept the enraged mob back,
sad the negro was dragged to the
village common and bound to a
tree.
After the mob gave vent to tbeir
wild desire for revenge, and it was
by the greatest effort of the leaders
that they were kept a back, the
clothing of the negro was torn from
his body, and pins, tacks, penknives
and every conceivable weapon of
torture was struck into the
skin of the negro as he struggled,
vainly pleading for his life. H
was allowed to suffer a hundre
deaths with his body bleeding in a
thousand places. ,
The almost lifeless form of the
little victim was then placed before
the glaring eyes of the brute, while
willing hands cut the tongue from
hia swollen mouth. . His cries be
came incoherent, and before the en
raged citizens could be checked the
skin was literally cut from his body
and distributed among the ' villag
ers. He died with his eyes on the
little girl whose life he had ruined.
His heart was then cut out with a
jacknife, his toes and fingers chop

Salem, Or., July 11. Not in any
spirit of threatening to appeal to
toe people do the friends of the ini
tiative and referendum amendment
talk of their plans, soould the su
preme court decide that tbe referen
dum was not legally adopted. "We
have the utmost confider ce in the
supreme court, sid mt of tht
mt entbueiattio advocatia .of tbe
referendum 'odar. "Our supreme
court bag showD in the past that it
can be influenced by neither poli
tics nor corporate power. Whatev
er the crurt may decide regarding
the legality of the adoption of the
referendum we will accept as good
law. Asking for a readoptionof the
referendom will cot be an appeal
from the supreme court from the
people, for tbe court will not pass
upon tbe merits of the referendum.
Lhe question before tbe supreme
court will be whether tbe referen
dum was adopted, and if we find by
the decision of the supremecourt that
the referendum amendment was not
legally adopted, we will begio again
and pursue a different course that
we know will be legal. We will or
ganize direct legislation leagues in
every precinct in the state, and in
the nxt campaign we will pledge
every candidate for the legislature
in writing to vote forac nstitution-
al convention. If auy candidate
will not pledge hires: If we will de
feat him in the election. It is be
cause tbe organization of the cam
paign is eo great a task that we are
already talking over our plans. v
It was stated in yesterday's cor
respondence that the friends of the
referendum will attempt to secure a
resubmission of tbe amendment if
it be determined that it was not
legally adopted in 1902. Tbis was
an error, for the plan is to secure
the calling of a constitutional convention.

Helena, Mont, July 4. The prob
lem of bow to catch and dispose of
the rattlesnakes at 10 Mile Point,
near here, has been solved by Mrs.
Daniel Dutro, wife of a farmer. She
uses a mouse trap.
Ten Mile Point has often been
called "Rattlesnake Point," on ac
count of the large number of rat
tle s that thrive in that vicinity.
No a year passes that they do not
kill .4 number of cattle, and How
and then a human being. Mr. Du
tro and Jack Cornwall, the latter
a noted snake-catcher, f have for a
long time been trying to clear the
plac of the 'reptiles, but without
much succesB. Finally they sought
tbe t id of Mrs. Dutro.
"Nothing more simple," said the
womao, as she smiled in a superior
sort of way. Instead of unfolding
her plans to the men and allowing
them to gain all the credit, she se
cured a number of common circu
lar mouse traps, which she baited
and set around in various places
before going to bed. When she- en
tered the kitchen in the morning
she found each trap filled. In each
hole was a snake, which bad been
attracted by the bait, and which
bad been choked to death when the
trap was sprung. All the other
traps, which had been set in . vari
ous places about the farm, contain
ed snakes, and in all sixteen were
captured, Tbe smallest was a tri
fle more' than a foot in length,
wbile the largest was four feet, and
had eight rattles.
If the supply of traps holds out
Mrs. Dutro expects to rid the Point
of rattlesnakes in two weeks.
Salem, July 10. Neither the ref
erendum amendment nor tbe refer
endum movement is dead, as will
be evidenced by the great struggle
that will take place in the next few
weeks or months. The case involv
ing the constitutionality of the ref
erendum amendment has yet to
be heard in the supreme court, and
the friends of the amendment are
preparing to make the greatest pos
sible efforts to convince the supreme
court that the amendment is con
stitutional. If they fail in that.
they will at once start a movement
for the readoption of the amend
ment, and will carry hght into the
next campaign. They will try to
make the referendum the great is
sue in the next election, and will
compel every candidate for the leg
islature to declare his position up

swell up and I would feel so weak I

discouraged for I seemed to be beyond
