THL MORNING OEEGONIAN. MONDAY, AUGUST 10, 1885. . . YAQUINA, A Trip Sei Oorvallis to the Baj.bj-&e Oregon Pacific. Eoe ef the 3a7 Attraotioai at tils Oceu Eweri e: gees Ifcsiae a 2Vo Days' Eta7- iep9tiec ol tbfe paper who has been on a trip over the Oregon Pacific railroad came into the office lst night in a rery used up condition ac- campanll by a shorthand reporter. He seemed bo inflated "with the pleasure ol bis journey that b6 -was above work and installing the scribbler ot hen tfacls at his desk he threw himself at length upon one ot the luxurious ottomans with -which the room is furnished, and lighting a two bit cigar he had somehow obtained, said: "I went to see 'The Private Secretary' last night; I have bad a long interview to-day with one person who is anxious to get a fat city job, and with another who is more anxious to keep one; and I have been out riding in the park; and "all these things combine to make me tired.' I fear I shall not bo capable of any protracted mental c-ffort for some time, and have hired a private fcecretary ot my own. "Sow, young man, I have just returned from a aying trip to Yaquina bay, over the Oregon Pacific railroad, and as the readers of The Oke fieMAH wbh to know something of that road and the seaport on which it has its western terminus, I propose to give some facts concern ing them and have you put them into readable shape. "You can begin by stating that we that means Mr. H. L. Pittock and myself left here ob tbe east side train at 7:45 on Monday morn ing last, lou can sling in something about the beautiful aspect of the country through which ve passed on our way to Albany; ferule prar ies, busy harvesters, threshing machines at work, golUen grain pouring out and all that sort of thiBg make it kind of poetical if you can. There is devilish little poetry connected with harvesting as a fact, I have been there and know fcow it is myself work from early morn till dewy eve and be smothered with dust and Winded with chaff but you need not put that in. "On arriving at Albany we found a carriage waiting to take us to Corvallis, and so saw but little of that thriving town and were not able to visit any of the newspaper offices there. The drbe to Corvallis was very pleasant being through oichards and grain fields most of the way, the fresh bieeze blowing away most of tho dust After a refreshing wash and a good dinner at the Occidental, wo repaired to tho Oregon Pacific depot, accompanied by Senator T. E. Cauthorn and Hon. W. P. Keady, who had kindly con fented to go along and 6bow us the attractions of Yaquina. Shortly after we reached the depot the train came puffing in with over 150 passen .rots. returning from a trip to the bay, all look ing brown, hearty and happy. They were under charge of Mr. 'Wallia Nash, vice-president of the company, who looked as if he felt proud and beppy, as he certainly had a right to. He ex pressed his regrets at not being able to go over to the bay with us, on account of the expected arrival of a party from New York, with whom to had important business to transact r 'Coll Tan Cleve, an old newspaper man, well known to the craft throughout the state, who Lolds tbe office of collector of customs at the pprt.of Yaquina, and publishes the Post there, camo out on tbe tram to meet us. It was his first trip across the mountains in three years. He lias grown stout and gray in his new home, but haB the same merry twinkle in his eye as of old, and thinks there is no place like Yaquina. "In a few minutes the sturdy little locomo tire, which fortunately happened to be at this end of the road when tho tunnel was burned, was attached to a couple of cars, the party eteppedon board and we were oft at about S ofclpt'k. Had we gone to Corvallis by the west tide train, we should not have arrived till 4:30, as only a mixed train is run on that road, which makes slow time. Haveyou gotthatsil'down? "Well, then, we will go-ahead. Thexoad from Corvallis passej through a very .beautiful section of country. You can shag in all-the adjectives at year command in describing' It. About six miles out we passed through the town of Philomath, whero is a Sod school under the auspices of the United ethren, Tho school building is a commodious one of brick and accommodates a largo number of fatudente. A warehouse at this point would receive 100,000 bushels of wheat for shipment over tho O. P. It B. From there on the road follows Mary's river nearly to the summit of the Coast range. It winds in and out of a con stant succession of narrow valleys, among fine farms and wheat fields, each valley opening into anouer, tin at lengtn tne surprised traveler HftftsfflaK!xs defiles of the mountains finds himself at the summit without having been aware that he had commenced their ascent" "A short distance beyond the train dashes through a tunnel, and the summit of the coast range is seen for miles and miles, a constant succession of peaks on peaks, covered with wav ing fern the bleached trunks of trees destroyed by fire about fiftyyears since. The whole range looks like au immense pasture, which it will ultimately become when the fern has been dis placed by the rich mesquite grass which thrives and spreads wonderfully in trie fertile 6oil which everywuere cohere uiese iuub, uiero umug uu rocks to be seen. As the road winds along an ever shifting panorama of hills and peaks is pre sented, tho highest being Mary's peak, which is seen In the distance. In a few minutes the burned tunnel is reached, and here a transfer is mado to the train wailing at the other end. Here Tve were met by H. V. Gates, gen eral euperintendent of the road. A large force ot men were at work clearing the debris out of the tunnel and it is in order for trains to pass through be fore now. Tho tunnel like tho other two on the line was heavily timbered and the intense beat has burned the rock at either end and brought it down in carloads. The tunnels pass ed, a fine full grown locomotive was found, one of four on the line ready for use. Far down be low snug farm buildings were seen nestling In ai little valley and away down there the line of the road could be seen. ."From Mr. Gates it was learned that the sum mit of the range is only about 700 feet above the eea level. Corvallis being about 200 feet above eea level the ascent on the eastern side is only 509 feet which Is so gradually made as to be Imperceptible. Of the descent on the west eide 500 feet is mado In the first six miles, but by winding around ravines the grade is kept below 2 per cent The nature of tbe route, following as it does the windings of Mary's river on the east and the Yaquina river on" the west of the range, greatly increases the length of the road. From Corvallis to Yaquina in an air line is about thirty-three miles. The stage road is about fifty, while the railroad seek ing aa easier grade is seventy-two miles in length. While there are comparatively few deep cuts and fewer high trestles, the locat ing ot the line presented some appalling diffi culties to the engineers. Four parties were out for about six months selecting the route, and to the traveler oter the line the great wonder is bow they ever found one at alL "Iuopplng down by a 6enes of gradual curves and descents, the head of the Yaquina river is soon reached, in the shape of a tiny brook, which winds its course through a narrow ravine half obscured by the rank growth of ferns on its sides. The road here is in excellent condition and the powerful engine whirls along at a rapid rate. Farm after farm is passed in rapid succession, and numerous sleek, well-fed cattle and horses are seen, and occasional delay is caused by an insane desire on the part of these animals to match their speed oa the, tracK with the locomotive, the shrill whistle ot which only puts mettle in their heels instead of Bearing them off the track. "Soon the bead of tidewater is reached, and tbe fresh breeze announces long before a Climpse of blue water is visible that we are ap- Sronching the ocean. "We dash along by the ttle hamlets of KIk City, Caledonia and Toledo, ibrougb narrow strips of meadow, and orchards laden with fruit, and see the cows being driven tip for milking; ive glance at the stakes defin ing the beds of OjstervlUe, "where the luscious bivalve is reclining and growing fat; and pass Oueatta and pull up at Yaquina Cityln about f or hours from leaving Corvallis. "Alter a good meal tat the mess-house, a boat with two sturdy rowers is provided and we fitart for Newport, tho lights of which can be frcoa twinkling in the twilight three miles dis tant Lightly rowed the bonux boat, and the phosphorescent waters dashed from the oars in ripples ot liquid fire; and in all too short a time wa were at the wharf In Newport and scram bling up the steps. Passing up the street, the strains of a violin and the patter o! feet keeping time to the music attracted one of the party at least to a hall where a merry party comprising a large majority of ladies were en joying themselves, but resisting an inclination to shake our tired feet in ths giddy dance, we passed on to a hotel, -and after a brief stay around tbe fire in the sitting-room, -which the ceoiacsa of lh atmosphere made pleasant we fought our chambers in the Ocean house, ana the roar of the surges ou the beach soon lulled us to clumber. "And thus ended tho first day, and now Mr. Private Secretary do you think you can put all bat stuff into the elegant and Instructive style o which tbe readers of The Ohimoman are accustomed? You think yon can. Weill baTe my doubts abotitii, bBtyoucan try. Aad now if you are 'ready we will proceed. "v e rose the next morning at what saemea a late hour to Newport folks, bet was an early one for newspaper men, and after breakfast strolled cut to eee the town. On the wharf we found Cauthorn and Eeadywho had risen at some unearthly hour. The tide was flowing out and the millions of jelly fish, shoals of little fishes and kelp plants with Iongstreaming ribbons of leaves attached to their hollow, bulbous heads made an attractive sight to those of us who lived in a fresh-water seaport' The town of Newport consists principally of one street, along the water side of which runs a bulkhead of tim ber, constructed at considerable ex pense. It is situated . on the inside of the point which forms the north side of the entrance to the bay. Three miles away we could see Yaquina City where the rrcer proper opens Into the bay which exjands to a width of about two miles in the widest place. TLe entrance is quite narrow, about a thousand yards wide, and out through it beyond the jetty on the south side could bd seen the ocean and the bieakers on the bar. "At the wharf we met Dr. Bailey, formerly of Corvallis, now mayor of Yaquina, J. "W. Brass field, P. M. Abbey of the Bay View house, J. B. K. Irwin, and other leading citizens. Near by was the office of the Yaquina Mail, and we called upon Messrs. Cole fc Alexander, the pub lishers, and spent a short time Tery pleasantly. Mr. Brassfield accompanied us across the bay to visit the jetty in process of construction by the government for the improvement of the harbor entrance. It Is extended & distance of over 3000 feet, and upon its success depends in a great measure the future of the bay as a seaport It is formed of rows of piles, upon which is a a double railway track along which the rock from a quarry up the river is carried and dumped to form the breakwater. The plan bids fair to prove successful, and considerable alteration has already ben made in the sands at the mouth of the bay by its agency. "Work on the jetty was Btopped some time since for lack of funds, leaving it in such a condition that a large amount of the next appropriation will have to be expended to put it in condition for resuming work. From the end of the jetty the beach can be seen as far as Cape Foul weather on tho north and CapePerpetua on the south, while to the west rolls tbe broad expanse ot the Pa cific, bounded only by the horizon, and to the east the countless peaks of the Coast range. "Betuming to town we accompanied our host of the Ocean house, James Bader, on an expedi tion in search of rock oysters, so called. Going around the point we found a piece of beach near low water literally etudded with these deli cious shellfish. The rock is a soft kind of stone and in it are found, not only the rock oysters, but also a species of mussel and occasionally small clams. A little vigorous exertion with an ax Becured a basketful of the oysters, which are found equally good raw or made in a soup at dinner. They are the greatest delicacy in the shellfish line the coast affords and 'are alone worth the price of admission.' From the rocks at the point a number of porgies were caught and then we came back to dinner. "In tho afternoon Bader took us out fishing for kelp fish. Ho had provided a basket of a large species of shrimp for bait and we bad lots of fun if we did catch more kelp than kelp fish. Cauthorn will hereafter be able to give the senate full Information in regard to tho depth of water in tbe bay, as he was -obliged to sound with tbe anchor for some time before he could find less than thirty feet The kelp fish is very pretty, but the crabs which were hauled up occasionally had no charms for most of the party, till they were on the table. "It is the opportunitylfor fishing and sailing afforded by the bay which gives Yaquina great er attractions as a resort for pleasure seekers than any of our other seaside resorts. These, combined with the rock oysters, make it almost perfection as a watering place. It has long been a favorite resort for people up the valley, and now that it can be reached by rail, is bound to be visited by thousands. At Newport are two hotels, where visitors can be com fortably accommodated, but their capacity will have to be increased in the future. There is surf bathiDg and bathing La the bay, boating and fishing, crabs, clams and shrimps, and plenty of fine oysters, a short distance up the river. No other place in Oregon presents so many attractions. 'In the evening we enjoyed a sail in a fine boat which skimmed the water like a thing of life. She lay over rather too much to suit me, and when I moved to the upper side a bad boy on board yelled, 'Golly, see how 6he straight ens up when he moves over.' That part is not to go in, Mr. Secretary, for Cauthorn joshed me wild about it There was no dance that even ing so Cauthorn tackled a whist game at the hotel and got well waxed and so we went to bed happy. "The citizens of Newnort were determined that we should see everj thing of note in their Foulweather. Owing to the stage of the tide we had to go across the hills and strike the beach above Point Difficulty a point which a little giant powder would speedily remove. From this point to the cape was a lovely beach for driving, and we bowled along at a rapid rate. Thelighthouse at the cape is a very fine one. and tbe keeper, Capt "Wass, showed the party through it and told us all more about Funk lamps and lenses and wicks and oil than we ever know before. In his house were some of the finest geraniums imaginable, the pride of Mrs. Wass. The sea air seems favorable to such plants, as many fine ones were seen at, Newport "On returning from the lighthouse a flag was run up at the wharf as a signal to Captain Lem Davis to bring the steam ferry across. By the time dinner was over he was on hand as was also Mr. Brassfield with a hack to take us ten miles down the south beach to his place at the Seal rocks. The beach was as smooth as a floor, and we just sailed along, passing on our way several streams com ing down from the shore, among them Beaver creek, a celebrated trout stream. Mr. Brassfield's place at Seal rocks is the finest place for a hotel imaginable. A number of huge rocks jut out from the shore, while Bmaller ones are scattered about at short distances. Here seals and sea lions congregate, and among the rocks the breakers boil and roar and throw their spray high in the air. In a cove sheltered from the wind is a neat cottage and a well-kept flower garden. Close by is an enormous 'kitchen midden,' or shell mound, covering over an acre, and some six feet in thickness, show ing that this had been a favorite resort of In dians in days gone by. "The'deposit contained shells of mussels, clams, rock oysters and bones of bear, sea lions aud other animals. All were much interested and delved in tbe bank in search ofany implements lost by the Indians but coula find nothing. The fish eating Indians appear to have been a poor lot The only thing they needed was a stick to dig clams and a fire to roast them. A luxuriant vegetable garden covered the monnd and such cabbages, potatoes, etc, as were there growing are seldom seen. "It seemed as if it must have taken millions of Indians and thousands of years to have accumu lated such a pile of shells, but after seeing the havoc made in a sack of oysters on our return by Cauthorn and Heady, it did not seem as it it would take so many men nor so much time. Some of these days Seal rocks will be visited by thousands and wul be celebrated far and near. "On our return to Newport Capt Benslll was ready with his steamer to take us to Yaquina City; so with thanks to all for kind attentions and regrets that we could not tarry longer in this charming spot we bade farewell to Newport and steamed off up the bay. Ar riving at Yaquina City, we were shown through the fine steamship Yaquina lying at the dock. She has a capacity forloOOtonsof freight and is especially adapted for crossing the bar, having iron tanks f orjwater ballast which can be pumped out to lighten her when necessary. Everything on board was in good order, and the ship can be got ready for sea at a day's notice. Close by was the tug Favorite, also ready for use at short notice, and capable of bringing a vessel in from the sea to safe anchorage in a very short time, It being only four or five miles out across the bar. In the round house were four powerful locomo tives, welghiDg about forty-five tons each, all in good order ana ready for work at a moment's notice, while near by were seveial elegant pas senger coaches, baggage and express cars, In fact all the rolling stock necessary for the complete equipmentof the road. "We slept the sleep ot the just at the mess houses, and the next morning visited the throe story hotel being erected close by and which will soon be completed. Tho river in front otthe railroad terminus is deep and broad, affording good anchorage for a large number of ships, naif a dozen of which could lay along tho dock ard receive grain from the cars at the same time. "After breakfast we stepped aboard the train and started for home, had dinner at the summit and arrived at Corvallis a little after 2 P. M. "During the afternoon we called upon Messrs. Saunders & Mansfield, of the Benton Leader, Messrs. Woodcock & Churchill, of the Corvallis Ualte, and Wallis. Nash, vice-president and manager of the Oregon Pacific, who gaveome interesting Information concerning the road which has always been a sort of conundrum to Portland people. He feels mora pleased alter all the difficulties encountered to have the road in running- order at last The completion of tbe tunnel burned last "winter will enable him to get through steel rails to replace the light rails now covering some five or six miles ot the road near this end. and then all will be 1 ready for business. It Is intended to load one or more ships vnta wheat at Yaquina this seasQn. The road will soon be extended to connect with the Oregon 3b Califor nia probably at Albany, and will eventually be earned through the Minto pass to Boise City, Idaho, but when it is cot at present possible, to say. In the evening we took a stroll around Corvallis, which besides being one of tho oldest is one of the prettiest located, cleanest and tidi est towns in Oregon. "Next morning, after bidding good-bye to our genial and jovial traveling companions, Messrs. Cauthorn and Keady, we took the west side train, and after passing through a country the beauty of which beggars description, arrived safely at home, tired but happy, and our minds stored with pleasant memories of a most de lightful trip." The reporter here tiuit and went home, to the great relief of his secretary, who remarked that all this stuff made him tired, passed in his notes without any attempt at dressing them, up into readable shape, and also disappeared. GRA5T AS A PEACEMAKER. The Trace between Conklin? and Gkrilelil J. Reeling or Great &tn at Sentor. Cleveland Cor. Pittsburg Commercial Gazette. Grant's last visit to Cleveland was during the Garfield campaign. Garfield, alarmed by Conk ling's indifferent, almost defiant attitude, and fearing that the coolness of his faction might cost him New York in the coming election, begged his managers to arrange a meeting be tween him and Conkling and Grant The meet ing assumed the nature of a grand love feast and peace was declared, but it "was due to Grant and to Mrs. Garfield's matchless cook ing. Grant and Senator Conkling went to Warren, where a great meet ing was held during the day. Senator Conkling was still indifferent, and made no allusion to Gen. Garfield in his speech. The writer hastened to Mentor in advance of the distin guished guests, who were to arrive in the even ing. Garfield was hurrying about the house personally aiding Mrs. Garfield in preparing for the visitors. "When the writer called him out on the piazza a moment and told him Conkling had ignored him in his speech that day, Gar field's face assumed a look of deep trouble, but be refused to discuss the matter. He could hardly believe the statement and the moment M. A. Hanna, chairman of the Cleveland recep tion committee, arrived at Lawnfield from War ren Garfield pulled him aside and said: "Mark, is it true that Conkling made no allusion to me in his speech to-day 7" Hanna said that itwas. and Garfield remarked: "Matters look very bad." His hopes of a compromise with Conkling had been dashed to the ground. At that junc ture the carriage containing Grant and Conkling drove up. Garfield opened the carriage door, and Conkling extended his hand and exclaimed, "General, I am proud to meet you at your home." There was a hick of heartiness in his voice. The BeDublican managers had planned uiu uiccuuj; wiui luusuuiuiaia bjuu, ueuuvuig that the sight of the father and husband under his own Eimple vine would impress Mr. Conk ling. It did win General Grant's hearty sup port. When Mr. Conkling had alighted Grant stepped down from the carriage and grasped Garfield's hand. He uttered scarcely a word, but there was that in the firmness of his grasp and the long holding of the hand that made Garfield's lace light up with pleasure. The light which streamed out from the open door fell on those two men with clasped hands, and illuminated a rare tableau. Once indoors the party made itself at home. nrin UnnrnrAri lnnrr fit- 4Via oMa rt nmnmn Garfield, and Conkling, with the grace of a gallant, delighted Mrs. Garfield with his courtly attentions. Good old Dr. Bobison, a simple old man, who worshiped Garfield, led Conkling aside to praise his hero, as he called Garfield. Bobison helped buy Lawnfield for Garfield, and he did not hesitate to openly upbraid every man who opposed him. In a few moments Conkling had frozen the old gentleman out, but Gen. Grant charmed the good doctor with his silent cordiality, and assured him that Garfield had nothing to fear. An informal luncheon was served. The little dining-room at Lawnfield had never contained so many distinguished men as stood around its table that evening. Grant, Conkling, Levi P. Morton, Logan and a score of others were there, and every man of them ate heartily and praised Mrs. Garfield's splendid coffee. Even Senator Conkling was melted by it, and he lingered so long at the table that Mrs. Garfield called his at tention to the fact that all the guests had re paired to the parlor. He paid her a pretty com pliment about the excellence of the luncheon making him oblivious to all surroundings but herself, and escorted her into the parlor. Then she walked over to attend some of the less important guests, for she knew what was coming. At that juncture Garfield invited Conkling and Grant to step up stairs into bis sanctum, osten sibly to take a smoke. Dr. Bobison and Mrs. Garfield were preoccupied and anxious from the moment the celebrated trio ascended the stairs. No one attempted to follow them. Perhaps no one will ever know what transpired, but it is known that peace, at least during the campaign, was declared, and that Grant was largely re sponsible for It. It is. believed that he won from Conkling a promlso to support Garfield. The meeting was brief. Their cigars were not half burned when they descended the stairs. The anxious look had flown from Garfield's face, and his wife's preoccupied manner gavo way when she read the story in her husband's features. Grant remarked that be would go out on the piazza to finish his cigar, but Garfield pleasantly exclaimed, "smoke in the house, general. Smoke anywhere." A terrific storm came up suddenly as the guests were about to leave Lawnfield, and all, ex cept Gen. Grant and a score of rural sightseers, hurried indoors. The general remained on the piazza watching the storm. As he stood, with his cigar between his teeth, the mild mien that be had worn in society departed under the fierce inspiration of the battling elements, and he looked a typical warrior. That the treaty of peace between Garfield and Conkling was sincere was proved on the follow ing evening, when Senator Conkling spoke in the armory in Cleveland, and eulogized Gen. Garfield so eloquently that the Immense crowd of hearers fairly shook the roof timbers with continued cheering. Cholera Prospects. Philadelphia Medical News. The cholera continues epidemic in Spain, but the press dispatches do not indlcato its spread In other countries, although it probably exists in the south of France, and any day may bring the news that It has again appeared in Paris. As yet there are no indications that it has in vaded Germany, or that it has appeared in any of the regions from which the main stream of emigration comes to this country, and there is, therefore, good reason la hope that we shall escape a visitation from it this year, or that, at worst, it will only appear at some of our mari time quarantine stations. The course of the present epidemic lu Europe has been exceptional as compared with former outbreaks. For more than a year it has lingered on the shores of the Mediterranean and in the Spanish peninsula, the furthest point north reached by it having been Paris, where Its ef fects were comparatively small. It does not ap pear, however, that the disease is any less viru lent m lype, or that tbe mortality among those attacked is any smaller than has been the case in previous epidemics, and the meteorological con ditions of both the past and the present sum mers present no peculiarities which would ex plain the comparative limitation of the disease and its slow spread. Ail the circumstances seem to indicate that the warning which the na tions of Europe received two years ago aa to the approach of the disease, and the measures of sanitation which were taken in consequence, have had a good effect Of these measures probably the most import ant have been those relating to water supply, and those resulting from the general diffusion among the people of the idea that the disease is usually communicated by articles of food or drink, and that when only such articles are used as have been recently subjected to heat the dan ger is small. If to this be added precautions as to disinfection of excreta, and the prompt boil ing or destroying of soiled clothing or bedding, which might possibly contain the germ9 of the disease, there is no doubt that the spread may be greatly hindered, if not entirely stopped. The so-called preventive inoculation ot Ferren appears to have little or no effect as thus far practiced. The work of removing collections of filth, do ing away with suspicious sources of water snn- ply, such as wells in large cities, etc., has been greatly stimulated both in England and in this country by the threatened danger, and we prob ably have jet nine months of grace left for work in this direction, which should be vigorously pushed.

The cattlemen of Harney valley have sold their beef cattle this year to a Chicago firm, and the cattle will be shipped East over the Oregon Short Line railroad. Only cattle over 2 years old were purchased. The prises paid were from $25 to 30 per head. As tte millers in the vicinity of Eiddle have nearly wheat enough to last them next season, the shipments from that place will be much in excess of former years, notwithstanding the fact that the yield will fall short on account ot it being somewhat shriveled.

The gambler made his escape. There are now 6eYenty-five coal miners em ployed at Newport The yield of the mine last month averaged 200 tons per day during the days the men worked, but owing to some un avoidable delay in shipping the coal the bankers filled and the miners did not have a full month's work. Several hundred pounds of ore from the tunnel being run across the Yank ledge are sent to San Francisco every month for assay. If it comes up to the reqirements after being thoroughly tested, machinery will be put there for work on an extensive scale. It is said that the ledge is improving right along and those who have the enterprise in hand are satisfied with it Miss Belle Waters, daughter of "NVm. Waters, of Jacksonville, was seriously burned last Tues day evening. She was engaged in cooking supper, when her apron caught fire from the stove, rapidly communicating with her clothing. Her brother happened to be in the house at the time, and with a quilt smothered the flames. A physician was called, who stated that her in juries though severe were not dangerous.

As the cart struck the bridge it upset, throwing the doctor out, the back of his head striking the sharp end of a plank with such force as to mangle it in a horrible manner, after which he fell off into the water below. Some men immediately ahead of him on horse back returned and found him in an insensible condition. One of them hastened to town and procured a physician, but before hl3 arrival the unfortunate man was dead. He was taken to Jacksonville Monday and buried. Dr. Brown was about 60 years of age and unmarried. Ashland Tidings: One of the greatest curios ities ol its kind ever discovered is now on ex hibition at the real estate office ot G. F. Billings in this place. It consists of a section of a black oak tree about 16 inches in diameter, from the interior of which protrude through the bark the points of a pair of deer horns. The stick being split nearly through the center exposes a part of the skull which is attached to the horns. It is not unusual to find articles left in the crotch of a young tree partially surrounded by the growth ot wood, but a Blngular feature of this curiosity is that there are no signs of any limb near the place where the horns are held, and the wood is sound and smooth, the contour ot the tree trunk being as regular at that point as anywhere. The points of the antlers extend from two to four inches outside- the bark, and show the effect ot time on their bony structure. It is guessed that the horns were firmly fastened in some way upon a shaved side of the oak sapling, most likely by Indians, as the slow growth of oak precludes the possibility of it having been done since the white settlers first came to Southern Oregon. The curiosity was found in what is in definitely called ''the hunting ground," in the mountains east of Ashland. WASHINGTON. Some very rich gold ledges have been dis covered near Kettle falls.

Fred Clark, real estate and stock broker: The transactions of the week numbered 18, amounting to 89,615, as compared with 22. and i535,5ua aa in tne preceding one. rroDa bilities are all in favor of the settlement of Oregon. If it ever had an opportunity to spread itself it is now when its crops are generally ex ceptionally fine, whilst those of California and many other states are but a moiety or less. To be able to demonstrate the truthtulness of the boast so often made that the crops ot Oregon never, fail, and that at a time when partial fail ure is so general, is a point which we commend to the guardian of Oregon's welfare the pres3. Now is the time when it can toot its horn with out having reason to blush after doing it, and make the text of its sermons the undeniable fact "that the certainty of crops is the beat guarantee of success the farmer can expect." It is manifest from the reports of rich finds in many parts otthe state that mining will absorb, at a very early date, a far larger share of public attention than ever before in Oregon. There is no doubt of its being very rich in minerals, nor that to the present tune it has hardly begun to be prospected. To a country so productive of vegetable and animal supples, great mining camps- would be of immense benefit, since they would furnish consumers for all kinds of products and manufactures. Some day the peo ple of Oregon will wonder why they so long slighted this branch of legitimate industry. To give it prominence and encouragement would be sound policy, for the metals command a ready market, and the bulk of miners make their homes In the country- where they make their money.
