Windfall for J. I. Wells. John, Ia.
W,eUs, a Tvell-known East Side resident
and veteran of the Civil War, was agree
ably surprised yesterday morning to re
ceive a draft for 5200 on the United States
Sub-Treasurer of San Francisco. There
was no explanation with the draft, and Mr.
Wells has not the slightest idea bow it
came to be sent to him. The draft is from
the Interior Department and is duly
signed by the Comptroller of the Treas
ury, dated May 19, 1S04. Mr. Wells is
much in doubt whether the- draft is for
him or for somebody else of his name, but
his address, 94 Grand avenue, is marked
on the draft and there is nothing' on its
face to indicate that a mistake has been
made. The only way he can account for
Its being sent to him Is that h served In
the Virginia state militia for a time at
the opening of the war, and it may be
that a bill has been passed by Congress
for payment of these veterans. However,
he will not cash the draft until he is sure
It is intended for hlm.
-Lectured on Burns. A lecture on
"Burns and His Poems" -uras delivered be
fore the pupils and invited guests of the
Gillespie School of Expression, Wednes
day evening, by William Foley. There
were 100 in attendance and the address
was thoroughly .satisfactory to alL Mr.
Foley described his recent visit to the
home and haunts of Scotland's -great poet
and gave a graphic wordplcture of the
many interesting historical places he vis
ited. The poems of the bard were an
alyzed and many of them given, in ex
tract. Mr. Foley is an ardent admirer of
Burns, and said of him, in comparison
with Moore, the sweet singer of his own
country: "It is said, and I believe truth
fully, that Moore played upon the hearts
of his countrymen, but he failed to catch
their fancy, or the world, as Burns has
done. The same "Is true of Byron. Truth,
justice and charity were the elements of
Burns character no wonder that the"
story from Alleway to Dumfries is told
annually, wherever Scotchmen gather."
Came to No Agreement. The commit
tee from the Portland Fruitgrowers Asso
ciation called on D. R. Mlekle, who had
made the growers a proposition to take 80
per cent of their berries Tuesday, but no
agreement was made. Mr. Mlekle's offer
was considered the best the growers had
ever received, and better than the prices
they had fixed themselves I cents straight
for strawberries, 5 for raspberries and 3
for blackberries. The conditions were that
he was to get at least 75 per cent, but he
wanted 80 per cent with a contract that
would Insure his getting the berries. The
hitch was due to the growers' request for
a bond. There have been no further nego
tiations with tho other canneries as yet.

WESTWARD WITH
LEWIS AND CLARK
(Extracts from the original Journal kept
by the explorers during their travels.)
AY 27, 1804 Wo sailed along a
large island called Otter Isl
and on the northern side. This
Is nearly ten miles In length, nar
row but high in its situation, and
one of the most fertile in the
whole river. Between it and the northern
shore are three small creeks, one of
which has the same name ("Otter") with
the island, empty. On the -southern
shore is a creek 20 yards wide, called
Ash Creek. In the course of the day
we met two canoes loaded with furs,
which had been two months on their
route from the Mahar (Omaha) nation,
residing mere than 700 miles up the river;
one largo raft from the Pawnees on the
Platte River, and three others from the
Grand Osage River. At tho distance of
15 miles we camped on a willow island,
at the entrance of Gasconade River.
This river falls into the Missouri from
the south, 100 miles from the Mississippi.
Its length is about 150 miles, in a course
generally northeast, through a . hilly
country. On its banks are a number
of saltpetre caves, and It is believed
some mines of lead are in tho vicinity.
Its width at the mouth is 157 yards, and
its depth 19 feet.
Thwaltes, in his "Rocky Mountain Ex
ploration," speaks of meeting two rafts
about this time, but his dates do not
tally with those given' in tho original
journal. He says: "Two small rafts were
met, manned by French and half-breed
traders from the Mandan country and
bearing buffalo tallow and furs to St
Louis. One of these men, named Dourlon,
who had lived with the Sioux for 20
years and gained their confidence, was
persuaded to turn back with the expedi
tion in order to induce that tribe to send
a friendly delegation to visit the new
Great Father at Washington.

The wordy seance had its source in a
