ROUTE OPENED Railroad Makes Washington Beaches More Accessible. WILL HANDLE BIG CROWDS Line Between Ilwaco and Megler Cost $700,000, and Many Diffi culties or Construction Were Met and Overcome. Portland people who have visited the Washington beaches at the mouth of the Columbia River during the season are very much pleased over the new exten sion of the Ilwaco Railroad to Megler from Ilwaco, This work, which has been completed at a cost of almost $700,000, makes the beaches north of the river easily accessible. The extension of this railroad is the biggest Improvement in the arrangements for handling beach travel that any transportation line In this terri tory has made in years. Beach visitors who used to fight their way on and off the T. J. Potter at the Ilwaco dock and who were often left be hind in the rush to get on board before the full quota was reached and the gates slammed shut in their faces, appreciate to the full the benefits of the new beach railroad. Its completion marks a new era in seaside travel in this territory. The extension from Ilwaco Junction to Megler is H miles long. Unusual difficul ties were encountered in constructing this stretch of track. The survey lay through bogs and mires, where yards of dirt and rock sank out of sight into the" mud when the construction forces started to build grade. Heavy clearing had to be done along the line, for the route was projected for a part of the distance through heavy forests. ' As the line skirts the river at its mouth, waves beat against the grade built for the road and rock riprapping has to be placed to pre vent the water undermining the track. A tunnel almost 10GO feet long was driven under Fort Columbia, the work being long and tedious, and earth cuts along the new line were extremely hard to complete on account of the springy and soft nature of. the earth. The slopes repeatedJy slid down over the track, and horses used in scraping away the hills were mired down. Model Dock, at Megler. A model dock that affords every con venience has been built at Megler, the eastern terminus of the road. The trains from the beach run out almost to the end of the dock, and passengers transfer to the Potter, moored alongside, by taking a very few steps. The dock is arranged in the most convenient way for the transfer of freight and baggage between the steamer and the trains. This dock boasts electric lights, current being taken from the Potter when the boat lies along side the dock after night. The great benefit of the new line and the main purpose for which the extension was built was to secure a regular leaving time for the Potter from Portland. For merly, when she discharged passengers for the beach points at Ilwaco, the tide made the time of arrival and departure Irregular and uncertain. With a different hour of leaving Portland every trip, the journey from this city down the river was unsatisfactory. Height' of the tides at the Ilwaco dock was dependent on the wind. With a strong east wind blowing, the Incoming tide would be held back so the Potter could reach the dock only at the very highest stage of the water, making the boat's stay at Ilwaco very short. The tortuous channel through Ba ker's Bay to reach Ilwaco was slow and difficult. But with the 'landing at Megler all this is changed. River steamers of all kinds can lie alongside at any time without re gard to the tide. Unlike Ilwaco, where only ocean-going vessels were allowed to cross the bay to the dock, any stern wheel boat may reach the landing with out difficulty. Busy Season Anticipated. Never before in the history of the ser vice offered by the "Clamshell Route," as the Ilwaco Road is known, has the beach trip been so popular. Resorts on the north beaches anticipate the busiest season in their history, andi inquiry for accommodations was never so large be fore. Superintendent Budd, of the Ilwaco Railroad Company, is directing the final ballasting of the extension, and although the road is already in good condition, it will be put in the best possible shape for the prompt handling of traffic.

The trouble with most gas ranges is, they' do not burn all the gas that passes through the burners. The gas is partly burned and partly decomposed. The result is that one-fourth more gas is used than is necessary, and the decomposed gas that escapes into the room causes injury to the health of the housekeeper, who thinks the fault is in the quality of the gas.

GROVE, Or.f July 4. (To the Editor.) At the recent mid-Summer meeting of the State Horticultural Society at The Dalles, the ' first Tues day in December was designated by amendment of the constitution as the date of the annual meeting. A committee was appointed to ar range for the entertainment of the Northwest Fruitgrowers Association upon the occasion of their annual meet ing, which will occur in Portland. on the two days immediately following the annual meeting of the state society. It is intended to make this meeting of the Northwest Fruitgrowers' Asso ciation the greatest horticultural event in the history of the Pacific Northwest. The association embraces Oregon, Washington, Idaho and British Colum bia, in each of which the annual meet ing is alternately held. It is expected that there will be at the forthcoming meeting in Portland large exhiibts, not only from the states named, but also from Montana, Utah and California. Delegates will also be present from Australia, New Zealand and England. Several of London's heaviest import ers of apples have signified their in tention to attend. This event offers to Oregon horticulturists a magnificent opportunity to study and profit from the work' of our sister states, and to extend the fame of our own horticul tural products. It is to be hoped that they will fully realize the value of the opportunity, and come to Port land in December with the finest dis play of fruit ever seen at a horticul tural gathering in the state. Upon my fellow-growers of the Wil lamette Valley, whose widely separated locations make co-operative effort more difficult, I would especially urge the importance of more than ordinary ac tivity in order to furnish a large and carefully selected exhibit; so that the undeniably high quality of our fruit may become better known. A generous list of premiums is be ing arranged, concerning which an nouncement will be made later. H. C. AT W ELI. OU, HUMAN OSTRICH GLASS AXD HARDWARE FOIX'D IX STOMACH OF TRAMP. Eye glasses (1.00, at lietzger' Complaining of Pain, Doctors Use Knife and . AVonders Are Uncov ered Swallowed Nails. MARSHFTELD, Or., July 4. (Special.) In order to satisfy a craving for drink. Frank Durga, a tramp, has been amus ing the frequenters of saloons by eating glass and swallowing small articles when his audience would give him a glass of whisky. He Is now paying the score for his unnatural trick and the surgical oper ation to which he submitted at Mercy Hospital, in North Bend, resulted in a discovery which the local physicians say surpasses anything they ever saw or heard of. The man was sick and it was decided that some foreign substance had lodged in his stomach. Doctors Bartle and Gale opened the man's stomach and after several hours' work removed the following collection of articles and mixed junk: Three jack knives, one end of knife handle, three door keys, one small key, three five-cent pieces, 15 dimes, one end of metal fishing rod, two large loaded rifle shells, three small shells, 17 horse shoe nails, one fish hook, two finishing nails, one shingle nail, one eight-penny nail, 175 pieces of glass, some of which were larger than the finger nail. When the opening of the human junk pile was started and it was discovered what the man's stomach contained, the surgeons and nurses were simply dumb founded. They could scarcely believe that the man could have had such a col lection in his stomach and still live. Some of the glass had penetrated the mem brane of the stomach and the most deli cate dissection was necessary for- Its re moval. -The man is apparently -getting along very well and the doctors say that unless some unexpected complications arise he will get well. He soon after the operation said he was hungry and asked for substantial food, the light fare usually given the hospital patients not satisfying him. - ,.-.- That the man could convert his stom ach Into ' a " depository for " money and hardware scarcely seems possible, but the doctors have the articles to show and state that they were hardly able to be lieve what they themselves saw. Nothing is known of Durga further than that he is a tramp and saloon loafer, about 44 years old, who has been on Coos Bay for two months. He is now a county charge. Awards $61,000 as Salvage.
