THE OCXaUlLT-E
BY A. E. GCYTON.
MARSHFIELD. Or.. Aug. 21. (Spe
cial.) What is more fascinating
than a waterfall in a quiet wood
land nook, dashing down over a big
rock and 50 or 100 feet below foaming
In a. little mountain stream? Surely
nothing could be more refreshing after
a long tramp on a hot day. Weariness
Is driven away by the very pound of the
water before a full view of the charm
ing sight is obtained. The feast of beauty
on visiting one of the mountain wi-ter-falls
repays the effort of X long jour
. ny to any one who can in the least ap
preciate the magnificence of nature.
Hunting waterfalls with a camera is
quite as much fun as hunting deer with
a heavy rifle, especially if the lover of
the outdoors does not particularly enjoy
the slaughter of the pretty beasts of the
forest, which Is the chief part of the
latter sport. But whatever is the recrea
tion which calls to the wild districts the
inspiration on discovering a waterfall
Is none the less lofty.
, Throughout the woods and mountains
of Southern Oregon are dozens of these
. waterfalls1, and none more pleasing or
varying in their form and size can be
found the world over. Some of these
falls, among them the most attractive,
have been seen by but a few persons,
.because of being located In out-of-the-way
places. To the real naturalist the
very isolation lends added enchantment
and makes greater the enjoyment of see
ing and perhaps photographing for the
benefit of others, these exquisite scenes
which nature has so lavishly scattered
through the southern part of the state.
Like the flowers which were born to
blush unseen, there are waterfalls of in
describable grandeur hidden away d n
the recesses and deep canyons of the
'densely wooded mountains of Southern
Oregon. That more artists of brush and
canvas have not invaded this field is a
wonder.
Of course ail the waterfalls are not so
hard to reach. -Many can be seen with
out great effort, but whatever traveling
-Is necessary, whether It be by stage,
horseback or afoot, is well worth while.
Coos. Douglas and Curry counties are
particularly favored with waterfalls. In
fact there is a chain of these falls
through the mountains. They are In tli
upper waters of the L'mpqua. Coos and
Bogue rivers and the branches of the
Coquillc and In the streams tributary
to these main waterways.
Some of these falls will doubtless one
day be famous show places for tourists
and visitors- and when one goes through
the waterfalls district it seems a pity
that at least some of this superb part
of Oregon cannot be retained in its nat
ural charm in the shape of a big state
park. Instead of suffering the denudation
of the woodman's ti.
Yellowstone Park In its way la no more
attractive than parts of this mountain
region of Southern Oregon, with Its
giant fir trees, luxuriant vegetation,
deep canyons, sparkling streams and en
trancing waterfalls.
While the towering trers. It is true,
must be cut for lumber, some of the
tails perhaps harnessed for power, and
mountain grades pulled down 'and cleared
tor railroads, and all within a few years.
TO.T.1.S
,TieOC
any one who stays a week in these woods
cannot help feeling that something
should be saved to show future genera
tions what Southern Oregon possessed
before nature was forced to sacrifice her
beauty at the white man's altar of prog
ress and commercial development.
Waterfalls, that Is real ones worth see
ing, are not made to order and placed In
a city park, like the concrete variety In
the goldfish ponds of the formal garden.
They must be In rugged places, else the
stream of which they are a part would
not have found it necessary to drop its
coursH abruptly off a rocky ledge and
form itself into a waterfall In order to
push through to an outlet. Consequently
to. find the most attractive of the water
falls it is necessary sometimes to enter
a rather rough country, and generally
the wilder the ppot the more beautiful is
the falls and the more elaborate the
surrounding vegetation.
If one is anywhere near a waterfall
for which he is seeking he will find it
by the noise. The roaring waters call
him and serve as a - guide until the
woods have been penetrated and the en
chantment of the glaring scene Is upon
him.
Xo two waterfalls are ever exactly
alike, but some are similar In general
makeup and may to an extent be classi
fied. The Southern Oregon falls are of
a dozen different kinds, inspiring in their
sight as many different emotions.
There is the thin veillike falls, which
quietly but constantly run over a rocky
ledge; the stormy. turbulent ntpids,
which are suggestive of danger to the
boatman; the heavy volume of water
which gushes out of a rock and tells of
the vast power going to waste; the -long,
grand sweep of water which Is awe-ln-splring
In Its brilliancy, and the exqui
site fanlike falls which spread out and
glisten in the sunlight. Each one, when
visited, seems more lovely than the last.
One of these places which is easy of
access Is known as Golden Falls, and Is
located in Coos County. It la 14 miles
above Alleghany, a settlement on the
north fork of Coos River. The latter
place Is reached daily by a boat from
Coos Bay and soon a stage coach will
be run from Alleghany to the falls for
the accommodation of tourists. This i
regarded as one of the most beautiful
waterfalls in the county and another In
the same mountains and equally as fine
Is called Silver Falla.
' In the Coast Range mountains, on the
Coos Bay wagon road, there are. besides
the scores of tiny cataracts, three large
falls. One comes out of a stone as
though from a pipe, another Is found
still higher up the mountain and the
third is near the summit. In sight of the
wagon road, and is almost at the head
waters of the Coqtiille River.
The Brewster Valley country, at the
foot of the Coast Range on the Coos
County side, is the starting place for
reaching the famous Lost Creek falls,
on the north branch of the Coqullle
River, about five miles from the wagon
road, and so near to the county line that
it may be claimed by both Douglas and
Coos. Here the water sweeps down the
incline of the mountain, strikes a base
and then dashes over a ledge which
forms the top of an enormous cava and
splashes in the stream far below.

stage road and reached only on foot, are
falls which are worth the trip. They
are wide and thin, and a man standing
under the ledge and behind the water
can be seen as plainly as through glass.
A big fir tree which has fallen diagon
ally across the chasm adds to the pic
turesque Ecene.
Cavot Creek Falls. about 15 miles
above Peel. In Douglas County, have not
been seen by many persons excepting
hunters and campers. The water takes
a drop of 50 feet and presents a charm
ing picture.
The place called the "Narrows." on
the North TJmpqua River, in Douglas
County, is of the stormy type. The
river banks come close together and the
water rushes through between the rocky
sides for a distance of 20 feet. About
four miles below, at the mouth of the
Little River, is another beautiful spot.
The waters of the L'mpqua divide and
flow on each side of a mass of rocks,
and into one of these channels at direct
right angles empties with much force
the Little River, and the whole mass
makes a gradual drop of BO feet. There
Is a constant boiling, roaring and surg
ing which holds the eye with a peculiar
fascination.
A famous waterfall of Douglas County,
which has not been visited by many, is
Wolfe Creek Falls, about' a mile and a
half above where Wolfe Creek flows into
the Little River. It is reached after
leaving the stage by traveling 36 miles
west over a horse trail into the lower
mountains or the Cascade Range. The
falls drop over SO feet.
Mill Creek Falls. In Jackson County,
near. Prospect, is another beauty.
These are only a few of the 'many in
spiring sights In Southern Oregon. There
are the rapids' of the Rogue River. Pep
per Creek Falls and many others of dif
ferent sizes, besides the small ones along
every mountain stream and road. In
some places the water seeps out high
above, spreads Itself over the rocky side
of a mountain and comes together again
at the bottom to feed one of the streams.
These -little trickling streams, which
only barely moisten the mountain sides
and the big falls where great volumes of
water pass every instant, are alike all
beautiful, and one can look and look and
still enjoy watching the ever-passing
waters.
To the angler these waterfalls Indi
cate a good fishing place.
There is also suggested the commer
cial Bide of the falls. Water power suf
ficient to run electric plants, factories'
and streetcars for cities Is dashing away
unbridled and unused and wasted only as
these moving waters afford the beautiful
to those who care to come and look.
But what matter, thinks the seeker of
waterfalls. Best let the factories burn
fuel and make power and save some of
these waterfalls and surrounding charms
of nature.

SELL FILBUSTER CRAFT
tSeamer Goldsboro In Mobile Un
" able to Reach Xew York.
NE WTORK, Aug. 2!. The last chap
ter of the steamship Goldsboro's career
as a filibuster is nearing an end and in
a few days the vessel will be sold to the
highest bidder in the port of Mobile. Ala.
The receiver for the bankrupt Export
Shipping Company, which Alfred W. and
F. G. Bailey, of this city, operated, has
decided to sell the vessel for what he can
get. The Goldsboro, upon reaching Mo
bile from Puerto Cortez. Honduras, a
few days ago. was found to be in such
a leaky 'condition that she could not
complete the voyage to New York.
The cargo, consisting of arms and am
munition, machinery, stores and many
other things, suitable for the equipment
of a colony the Bailey brothers intended
to establish In Honduras, will be brought
to New York and probably will be sold at
public auction. It Is valued at $750,000.

The fire started a wek ago. but was
apparently subdued, only to break out
again. Assistance Is betng sent from
Great Falls and from near-by places.
