The new local Upper Columbia River train put on by the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Company. May 20. will do much toward attracting tourists to points along the river between Portland and The Dalles. The new train, leaving Portland as it does, at 8:15 A. M. and arriving at Portland at 6 P. M. the same day. gives one an opportunity to spend the day at some of the deltghtful places along the I'pper Columbia River, and permits them to return home the same day. The train is made up of baggage-car and coaches, and stops at all 'points in both directions so as to accommodate local travel as much as possible. The lightness of the train, however, permits It to run at a high rate of speed between stations, so that even with the stops, good time is made. There are many beautiful places along the river, such as Rooster Rock, Latou rell. Multnomah Falls. Bonneville, at which a day's outing and picnic can be enjoyed to the uttermost, and this new service makes it possible to take such outings, whereas. In the past, when the service has been performed bv the- heavy through trains, it has not been possible to do this. Columbia Southern passengers. Instead of waiting at Piggs. which is unattrartive are taken to The Dalles proniptlv, where they await the train for Portland, coming in on No. 1, as at present, or taking the local, as they may ilasire. ' ES Three Men and Wives Leap Into Lake Washington. NON-SWIMMER IS THE HERO Climbs Back Into the Burning Craft and With His Sweater Manages to Beat Out 'the Fire. All Are Saved. SEATTLE, May 19. (Special.) For 30 minutes last night three men and their wives fought against death from drown ing and from Are on Lake Washington, clinging to the sides of a burning gasoline launch. Charles Grant, Frank Shull and Thomas Gilbert and their wives left the Seattle side of the lake at 9 o'clock last night for a pleasure trip in a 22-foot launch. When less than 200 feet from shore the launch caught tire from a leak in the gasoline tank. The launch was enveloped in flames and the clothing of the occupants also took tire. The six persons at once leaped from the launch into the water. Only three of the party could swim. Grant, frightfully burned, arose to the surface to see his wife but a few feet away. He grasped her as she was about- to sink from ex haustion and swam with her to the side of the boat. He fastened her hands to the railing of the burning craft. He then brought Mrs. Shull to the side of the boat. Both women loosened their hold and had to be rescued a second time. Gilbert got his wife to the side of the boat, but she fainted and he had to hold her there with one bartd while he clung to the craft with the other. Shull, who could not swim, managed to reach the launch's side. He clambered into the launch, and, tearing off his sweat er, fought the flames with it. He finally extinguished them and with an oar he then got the rest of the party in the launch, after which they paddled it ashore.

Those who are interested in making; deductions from past figures may find food for specu lation as to the probable results in June by study of the official vote of the sev eral counties as taken from the journals of the Legislature of 1903.

HARRIMAX IS FORCED TO ACT Hill Gains Control of the Pacific & Idaho Northern Line. . HUNTINGTON. May 19. (Special.)
