Takes Big Lumber Cargo.
ASTORIA. Or., Sept. 19. (Special.) The
steamer Yosemite cleared at the Custom
House today for San Francisco with a
cargo of 900.000 feet of lumber, loaded as
follows: Three hundred thousand feet at
Raymond. 260.000 feet at Prescott, 100.009
feet at Rainier and 230.000 feet at the
Hammond Lumber Company's mill.
By the adoption of a resolution yester
day morning, the City Executive Board
instructed City Attorney Kavanaugh to
institute proceedings for the condemna
tion of all rights and privileges of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Com
pany and all other interests in connec
tion with the construction of the pro
jected Madison-street bridge. The chief
opponent of the new bridge is the rail
way company, which has served notice
that it will resist the effort to build.
The streetcar company officials contend
that they have a right to operate over the
Madison-street bridge for 13 years more
and that the city cannot legally interfere
with that right. However, the city off!
clals have proceeded with rapidity to
carry out the provisions of the act, which
was passed by the people, for the new
span, which is to cost $4oo,000.
The resolution of the Board, adopted
yesterday morning, is as follows:

selyn. Its president, has declined to

end that the City Attorney be and he is

INTERESTING FEATURES
WILD WEST SHOW.
IN
Battle With Desperadoes Who Steal
Treasure Among Realistic Scenes
Typical of Western Life.
An exciting and engaging scene to be
presented here with Buffalo Bill's Wild
West, . September 25- and 26, will be the
great train holdup in which the methods
employed by train robbers will be il
lustrated in minute detail. Furthermore
the details of bandit hunting will be
fully shown.
Ever since the Union Pacific stretched
its tracks westward to connect with the
shores of the Pacific Ocean, train rob
beries have been a menace to life and
property. The problem of effectually
coping with these desperados had long
been unsolved, until the Union Pacific
established a posse of bandit hunters,
equipped with a special car, and ready
at call to be transported to a scene of
depredation. After a few experiences
with the bandit hunters, train robbing
became eo hazardous that the lawless
Westerner finally almost entirely aban
doned the occupation. Thus as a passing
scene, typical of the development of the
West, Buffalo BUI presents a realistic
train holdup. A practical engine, draw
ing a practical train, forms the Important
factor In the holdup. The methods of
the train robber are depicted and 'as a
climax to the scene the bandit hunters
of the Union Pacific appear to visit retri
bution upon the desperadoes.
The great train holdup is not the only
typical Western scene which is shown
with Buffalo Bill's exhibition. There will
be "The Battle of Summit Springs," re
producing one of the deciding conflicts
in Indian warfare, a battle in which Buf
falo Bill originally took part. There will
be a realistic attack upon an emigrant
train and there will be "A Holiday at
T-E Ranch" which will depict scenes
of ranch life and will show the pastimes
of the plainsmen when they "take a day

COOK LEAVES FOR CEYLON
Chinese Who Objected to His Coun
trymen Begins Long Voyage.
Either pursued by highbinders or
suffering from a disordered imagina
tion, Charlie Lee, erstwhile cook at the
County "Jail, has gone to Ceylon. After
three years of service at Mr. Stevens
establishment at the Courthouse, Lee
decamped without saying. goodbye.
After several weeks it was learned he
had applied to the Sheriff at St. Paul,
Minn., for protection over night from
highbinders. He was given quarters
at the jail and next day went to New
York. It was learned yesterday that
he took a steamer for Ceylon.
Whether Charlie was actually threat
ened by highbinders or was merely of
an Imaginative turn is not known. It is
believed by the Sheriff, however, that
he was .not in any danger of Injury,'
as he had told no secrets on his coun
trymen here. His only offense was con
tinual refusal to have anything to do
with other Chinese.
