fice of the County Clerk yesterday. Tho

and Dell Stuart; capital stock, $2000. The
objects announced arc to take by canato,
flumes and ditches the waters of the Dee
chutes River from a point in Klamath
County and transmit the same acrofi the
lanoo of Klamath and Crook Counties,
easterly towards PrlnerlUe. Also to take
end use East Lake and Paulina Lake,
Crook County, and make of them reser
voirs for storage of water, and to use thi
water in connection with the waters ol
the Deschutes River for household and
Irrigation purposes, and to establish town
cites. To Join the Moiutoxs. John Atkinson,
wife and five children passed through Port
land yesterday on their way to Salt Lake
City, from Brisbane, Australia. They re
cently joined the Mormon church and
considered thems?eli-e well on their way
to the "promised land" when they struck
Portland. The head of the family Is a
cabinet-maker by trade, but said no work
could be procured in Brisbane unless one
had a recommendation as long as his
arm. Even where employment was ob
tained, tho wages paid only equaled 1 3
a day of American money. They bad
heard, of good wages and cheap living in
Utah from families who had gone there
from Brisbane. Mr. Atkinson raid the
trip to Salt Lake via Honolulu, Vancou
ver. B. C. and Portland would cost him
$300, but he would be well satisfied with
the outlay If Utah proves half as fine
as pictured by the Mormon missionary at
Brisbane.
Leaped From Tire Bridge. Professor
Ed Morey, a professional bridge Jumper,
made a splendid dive from the steel bridge
Into tho Willamette yesterday morning at
10:30 o'sl'wk. Without any hesitancy, he
walked t.ut to the middle of the channel
and deliberately made the leap. Arrange
ments had been made to haul him into a.
skiff as soon as he reached tho surface,
but without waiting for assistance be eas
ily swam to the shore and immediately
set out for his hotel. About a score of
people witnessed the leap. This dive of
Professor Morey wa only an exhibition
Jump, i.nd was something In the nature of
a rehearsal, as he will dive from the high
suspension bridge at Oregon City this
afternoon. The Oregon City Jump will be
eomewhat difficult, ze the current of the
river there is regarded ao treacherous.

WINS HEARTY APPROVAL
EVERYBODY DELIGHTED WITH
HADISOX-STREET BRIDGE.
Celebrated Vood-Prnerrer Will Add
Years of Life and Usefulness.
to tbe Structure.
"It's simply immense.
"The old bridge has turned up trumps."
"Feels like riding on a bowling alley."
These are but a few of the encomiums
passed oh the renovated Madison-Street
bridge by the world on wheels during the
past week. Bicyclists, roadmen, teamsters
even the babies In the perambulators
all Join the chorus of praise. It is a first
class Job. and creditable alike to City En
gineer Chose and the contractors, Wake
field & Jacobsen, who carried out the
plans.
The pavement of Oregon fir blocks has
been smoothly laid, and all kinds of ve
hicles glide over It as easily as a skater on
ice. Every timber In the structure has
been as carefully examined and approved
as the plates of a battle-ship. The result
Is a perfectly safe and substantial bridge.
Superadded to these merits. It possesses
another virtue unknown to any bridge that
has heretofore spanned the Willamette.
This Is the positive assurance of long life
and green old age.
A guarantee of this lengthy existence, so
dear to the heart of the taxpayer who pays
the bills, is found in the fact that all the
chords, girders and beams of the bridge
have been treated with the world-renowned
Carbollneum Avenarlus, a wood
preserving preparation whose marvelous
power of vitalizing timber and adding
years to its usefulness Is now recognized
by the leading engineers, shipbuilders and
contractors of three continents.
Before using It on the Madison-Street
bridge. Superintendent Chaso assured him
self of the valuable qualities of Carbolln
eum Avenarlus. and he feels assured he
has made no mistake. As he expresses It,
the compound "has an aversion" to water,
and In simple self-defense should be em
ployed on every wooden structure sub
jected to a wet ollmate like that of Ore
gon. Besides the heavier Umbers, the paving
blocks of three spans east of tbe draw
have been coated with the preparation,
and if the results of competitive trials in
paving the streets of London count for
anything. It Is certain these blocks will
still bo in sen-ice when the rest of the
bridge pavement has been three times re
placed, unless. Indeed, Carbollneum Ave
narlus is resorted to after the first failure
of the weaker members.
Let us rejoice. We have a good bridge,
a strong bridge, and. best of all, a bridge
that will last for at least a generation.
