ALBANY, Or., Jan. 26. (Special.) The
flood at Albany began to subside at 2
o'clock this afternoon. At noon the "Wil
lamette RIvor registered 3L6 feet above
low-water mark the highest point
reached In 12 years, and which has been
surpassed but twice In 42 years. During
the forenoon snow fell, and later it
changed to a light rain, which still con
tinues. Reports of losses, which will amount to
thousands of dollars, are coming In rap
Idly tonight. Almost every one along the
Willamette and Santlam Rivers lost some
livestock, and In some Instances Individual
losses will amount to several hundred dol
lars. The loss to Linn County In bridges
alone will amount to $25,000, as far as
present reports go. Beside the Sanderson
brldce. which Is a total loss, many bridges
were partly wrecked, among them boing
the bridges at Jefferson, btayton. icd
anon and Crawfordsvllle. A large .num
ber of small 50-foot bridges were washed
out, rendering roads Impassable.
As far as the eye can reach on the Ben
ton County side Is an immense expanse of
turbid, rushing waters, freighted with
trees and drift, dealing destruction wher
ever they strike. Traffic is largely inter
fered with. Miles of country roads on the
Benton County side are submerged, while
damage to the Southern Pacific roadbed
In Southern Linn County has shut off all
travel south of Albany.
About 9 o'clock this morning Ed "Walker,
David Smith and Oliver Rowe arrived In
a boat from a logging camp up the river.
These men were logging about three miles
above Albany, where they were overtak
en In the night by the swiftly-rising wat
ers, and barely escaped with their lives,
About 9 o'clock Sunday night the men
-were awakened by the sound of running
water In their cabin, and, upon getting
out of bed, found they were standing in
a couple feet of water. They took their
bedclothes and mounted to the roof of the
cabin. At 11 o'clock they were forced to
seek the highest spot on the roof, and
shortly after were compelled to seek
safety in a boat, which they had fortun
ately moored to the cabin. The men had
to spend the night in the boat, tied to the
cabin, as no boat could have survived a
wild ride on the whirling waters through
the trees of the river bottom in the dark
ness of night. "When daylight came, the
perilous journey to the open rh'er began.
and the men finally reached Albany In
safety.
Today at 10:30 o'clock a bent in the Ben
ton County approach to the steel bridge at
Albany went out. All night logs and drift
were whirled against the bridge by the
swollen river. During the forenoon a
large number of people collected on the
bridge to watch the flood. That part of
the approach which went out joined the
bridge proper, and people were standing
on It when it began to give way. There
was Immediately a stampede for safety.
and hardly had the last man reached
firm footing when, with a crash, about 30
feet of the bridge fell into the river and
was carried away by the swift current.
Allen Stellmacher. Elom Crutchfield and
Miss Laura Hackleman were left in a seri
ous predicament. They had advanced to
the water's edge on the Benton County
side, and when the bent went out between
them and the bridge proper, they were
left In a helpless condition, as it were, on
a desert Island. Boats were sent to them,
and, after a perilous journey through
trees and drifts, the unfortunate young
people were saved.
J. A. Warner was crossing the river in
a boat this afternoon to see If aid was
needed at some farmhouses, when his
boat entered a maelstrom, was hurled
against a submerged log and tipped over.
Warner seized a limb of a tree and
managed to keep himself above water
until help could arrive.
The archives of the local weather ob
'server show the following high-water rec
ords for Albany: 1SG1 36 feet, 1SS1 32 feet
8 inches, 1S90 33 feet 9 Inches. 1901 30 feet 5
Inches. December 6, 1902. the high-water
mark was only 24 feet 5 Inches.
The Southern Pacific roadbed south of
Albany has been repaired, and trains are
running again this evening.
DAMAGE AT GRANT'S PASS.
Estimated at ?25,000 Whole Orch
ards "Washed A-nray.
GRANT'S PASS, Or.,- Jan. 26. (Special.)
Reports that have been received today
from the outlying districts of the county
show that the damage done by the floods
is much greater than was at first expect
ed. Saturday night's train from Portland
arrived this morning. It is not known
whether any other trains will arrive to-
'nlght from the north or not, as the road
between Grant's, Pass and Roseburg Is in
bad condition, due to the many slides.
The damage done by the floods in Jose
phlne County will amount to $25,000 or
more. The greatest havoc has been
wrought on the Lower Applegate and
along the Rogue River below this city
In those regions entire fanns have been
ewept out. Many hopyards have been
washed out Consul H. B. Miller's fine
orchard on the Applegate Biver was
washed out almost completely. The
county bridges across Deer, Grave and
Sucker Creeks were washed out, and it is
reported that the fine Applegate bridge
on the Murphy road is also gone.
Today it has been ascertained that the
dam of the Golden Drift Company has
been Injured to some extent, as has also
that of the Condor Water & Power Com
pany at Tolo. The power-house of the
new water, light and power company in
this city was damaged somewhat. To
day a warm rain has been falling; snow
fell last night, and another flood, perhaps
more damaging than the one ndw spent,
may occur.
LITTLE DAMAGE AT EUGEXE.
Savrmllls Suffered Most, Lotting; Sev
ern! Million Lorn.
EUGENE, Or., Jan. 26. (Special.) The
flood of the rivers in this vicinity has sub
sided and all streams are now well within
their banks. About the only reports of
great damage come from the lumber
mills and logging camps. It If known that
several million logs have been lost. The
damage about Eutene amounted to much
less than was expected. The damage to the
bridge was the greatest, and some dam
ages of minor importance were sustained
by the mills In the manufacturing dls
trick Snow has been falling today, and
thore is now three inches of wet snow
on the ground. Wires have been weighted
down and broken In a number of In
stances.

for 36 hours. Thirty to 50 head of cattle
stood most of yesterday afternoon and all
last night huddled together on the high
est part of the same farm, and were In
two to three feet of water.
The overflow of Mary's River to the
south of town makes another lake two or
three miles long and a mile wide, with
water two feet deep in the county road
for a mile to the southward. The lower
end of Mary's River bridge Is afloat and
has swung four feet out of position. Ap
proach to town has been practically shut
off since yesterday afternoon, save by the
railroads. No damago beyond the de
struction of various small bridges Is re

gan Its fourth week of investigation this
morning by subpenalng several witnesses
believed to be acquainted with facts rela

turned. This is flatly denied by all mem
bers of the grand jury and the Prosecut
ing Attorney.

II IK Flood of "Water May Carry Airay
Part of Structure.
SALEM. Or.. Jan. 26. The Willamette
at this point hns risen to a height of 27.S
feet on account of recent heavy and warm
rains. The river Is several feet out of
its banks, and is creating great havoc
upon property along the water front.
People on Water street were obliged to
move to higher quarters Sunday night.
The new fill to the west approach to the
big steel bridge across the AVlllamette, but
recently completed. Is being washed away,
and fears are entertained for the trestle
work. This Is the greatest flood since 1S90, when
the river attained a height of 32 feet, and
from reports of a still greater rise from
upper river points. .It Is feared that the
river has not attained its apex yet. All
creeks In this section are raging torrents.

many are naked. From three to five
inches of snow has fallen on several occiv
slons. In numerous lodges they are with
out a crumb to eat. Many are wander
ing about begging. The drouth of last
season left them without crops, and the
rivers and springs dried up, their stock
perishing for lack of food and drink.

material with which to weave blankets.
They have given up all their cheap silver
jewelry and trinkets for flour and meat
long ago."

FrciRhter Luckcnhnch and Its
IliHtory Overdue Ship Arrives.
At a meeting of the North Pacific Coast
Freight and Transportation Agents' Asso
ciation at Seattle last week, attended by
representatives of all the steamship lines
running to the Orient from Puget Sound
and Portland, the freight rate to Shanghai
was advanced 50 cents per ton. Other
trans-Pacific rates were left unchanged,
but It was agreed by all that the rate to
Shanghai was at least 50 cents too low,
owing to the expense of discharging and
lightering cargo ashore at that port.
Shanghai Is situated on a river, which is
so .shallow that a heavily loaded vessel
is compelled to discharge part of her cargo
and lighter it a distance of seven or eight
miles before she can enter the port. It
was further agreed that the steamers of
the lines represented would not accept
less than 500 tons for Shanghai. There
was formerly a differential of $1 against
the port, but It was gradually reduced
by competition until it was entirely wiped
out. This meeting was called for the
purpose of putting on a differential, which
the Sr.n Francisco lines, though not rep
resented, havo agreed to maintain. The
new rate will go Into effect February L
The lines represented at the meeting were

pany, Canadian Pacific, Nippon Yusen

The
of SjTrup of Figs is due to its pleasant form and perfect freedom from every
objectionable quality or substance and to the fact that it acts gently and truly
as a laxative, without in any way disturbing the natural functions. The
requisite knowledge of what a laxative should be and of the best means for its
production enable the California Fig S3rrup Co. to supply the general demand
for a laxative, simple and wholesome in its nature and truly beneficial in its
effects; a laxative which acts pleasantly and leaves the internal organs in a
naturally healthy condition and which does not weaken them.
To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that the
medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of known value and Syrup
of Figs possesses this great advantage overall other remedies, that it does not.
weaken the organs on which it acts and therefore it promotes' a healthful con
dition of the bowels and assists one in forming regular habits. Among its many
excellent qualities may be mentioned its perfect safety, jn all cases requiring a
laxative, even for the babe, or its mother, the maiden, or the wife, the invalid,
or the robust man.
Syrup of Figs is well known to be a combination of the laxative principles
of plants, which act most beneficially, with pleasant aromatic liquids and the
juice of figs, agreeable and refreshing to the taste and acceptable to the system,
when its gentle cleansing is desired. The quality of Syrup of Figs is due not
only to the excellence of the combination, but also to the original method of
manufacture which ensures perfect purity and uniformity of product and .it is
therefore all important, in buying, in order to get its beneficial effects, to note
the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front
of every package.

caused by kidney complaint will stand In

valuable advice offered by:
William Gower. barber, of 131 West
Bennett avenue, Colorado Springs, aays:
"I was interviewed by a gentleman in the
month of June, 1899, about Doan's Kidney
Pills. I was then living In Pueblo, Colo.,
and I toM him that after suffering for
four or five years with backache and
other consequences of either excited or
weakened, kidneys, I went to my druggist'
in Pueblo for Doan's Kidney Pills and
took a course of the treatment. They
cured me, and cured me quickly. Since
then I have not had the slightest symp
tom of a recurrence. I have recommend
ed them to a number of friends and ac
quaintances and told them If they did not
cure them they" could return the box to
me and I would pay them for them. No
one ever came back with a box, so I knew
they were cured." Ask tho Laue-Davls
I Drug Co. what their customers say about
Doan's Kidney Pills.
For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
