Bklenap Springs, July 25, 1893. Ed. Gazette: After a dusty ride of three days we arrived safety, and found several Corvallis people already here. Among them are William Bo;ue, Al Cummins and their families. There are fewer isitors to the springs this year than usual, the hard times aud the world's fair no doubt having de tained many. Several campers from differ eut counties are here, and of the nnmber are II. V. McEImurry of Wells Station, D B. Taylor end J. J. Kurre of Independence. II. Fulkersoii and family of Monmouth, Peter Smith of Scio F. Gerhard and J. A ! Bilyeu of Albany, and several boarders at the hotel whose names we do not know. We are enjoying ourselves immensely in ' taking hot baths, fishing, and drinking hot water. ' Already we feel the stimulating ef fects and anticipate much beuctit'from the use of these baths and from this, health-giv ing mountain air. Several of our boys started this morning for the deer licks about live miles distant. They go to inspect the rope that is stretched across the McKen zie river for the purpose of crossing over to the lick which is on the opposite side of the river. As they are all law-abiding citizens, will not, of course, shoot at or kill any deer until August 1st; but after that dute, look oui-1 We we will then empty our "uncon cealed" weapons, to which you refer in your last isstie. Our "concealed" weapons which had corks in their muzzles have had the corks removed several times already, and we were just thinking that we would have to c dl on you, Mr. Editor, to send us a new supply soon; but Thos. Whitehorn and Ned Smith have just came into camp and we don't think it will be necessary for awhile yet. I Thanking you for your kindness in send ing ns a copy of your last issue, we would a!so be pleased to have a o py of this week's issue, as your last was read aud enjoyed by the many campers present. (Signed) One of th4 tf. c. l'iease correct any errors, as our grammar and dictionary pre both left at home. July 31, 1S93. Our boys have returned from their trip to inspect the rope at the deet "lick and found it to be in a dangerous condition. In order to test it, I hey sent one of their number over on the rope. C. A. Davis, being the lightest weight, started over and when about half way ccrnss two strands of the rope broke, letting him into the water waist deep. Luckily, however, it broke on this side and William Bogue and S. L. Hender son caught hold of the broken, strands aiid twisted them with a stick so that it held until lie got across. Caleb is a plucky lad; when asked if he was scared when he struck the water; replied: "No; had all toe strands broken, I could have held onto the end and floated ashore." We doubt if he could have done so, as the water is iletp and very 8wiic. jvir. Ustrauaer says he will put a wire rope across, and we think he should do so without delay, as tomorrow is August 1st; when we will all be authorized by law to kill deer, and as this lick is the very best place to kill deer, we are all much interested in seeing a strong rope of some kind across. We have so far put iu our time fishing, and have enjoy, d it very much. .. There are new arrivals almost every day, and some go away. Among those who have left us are Thos. Whitehorn and Ned Smith. We all miss them and regret very much that they had to go. 7 As we write we have been thinking of the multitudes who in this year of the world's fair, delude themselves with the idea that the cup of pleasure and enjoyment may be found full to the brim in the hot and rush ing city of Chicago, and go there only to find it a delusion aud a fraud. Oregon peo ple have returned tired and unsatisfied, and others will go to leap the same experience, forgetting the fact that in the mountain re sorts of this state more solid comfort and enjoyment may be found than in the densely crowded metropolis by the lake. Mountains with their cliffs and crags, wild forests aud roaring mountain streams have ever been associated in the minds of men with liberty and freedom of thought and action. No man can view these grand w r'ts ot nature without experiencing better thoughts and regarding this brief span of life allotted to humanity as of greater moment and value. Here iu the heait of the Cascade mountains natuae may be seen in her wildest moods. From the lafty peaks, easily accessible, the eye wanders in every direction over grand and sublime scenery mountains and cliffs in every conceivable shape thrown up in seeming confusion by volcanic action. To the east the Three Sisters, clad in snow white shrouds, loom grandly towaid the skies, apparently but a few miles distant but really twenty-five miles away. The naked eye can discern the path of a glacier ou the scarred side of the mountain. To the south Diamond Peak and Mt. Pitt rear their heads, clad in eternal snow, while far dis tant a faint glimpse ot Shasta is obtained. Northward along the range, Jefferson, Hood and Adams stand like sentries on guard. We rest by the side of a huge snow-bank Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report, ABSOLUTELY PVBB that is being slowly melted by the July eunj and observe the luxuriant grass that springs from the earth at the edge of the snoWj and here grow the luxuriant wild flowers that would delight the heart of the botanist, in profusion, with brilliant colors and delicious fragrance, of varieties peculiar to mountain ous regions. Aloug the sides of the moun tains, recently relieved of their snowy bur den, shrubs are in full foliage and flower. The climb, though laborious and tiresome, is amply compensated for by the beauties of nature unfolded on every side. The turbulent McKenzie, with its tribu taries, are filled witluthe finest trout of the speckled, red-side and "dolly vardeu" vari eties, and though it takes many weary steps and cautions casts of the line to effect their capture, the sportsman is amply re wanted when the royal fish is hooked aud makes his desperate strugide for life, only to be laid panting on the bank. Deer are plentiful; but like other good things of life, are only to be secured by hard work. Four miles above the Belknap Springs is a warm spring with a temperature of about 120 degrees, which is used extensively by deer. The Foley and Belknap springs have a temperature of 188 degrees which never varies. It is probable that they coine from a common source, but whether from a sub terranean fire or chemical action is a mooted question. The Belknap springs are situated on the right bank of the McKenzie river, sixty-one miles east of Eugene. , Above them on the north rises a mountain to the height of a thousand feet. The springs have bee11 greatly improved during the past year by tilling crevices lower down the bank through which the water escaped, thus greatly in creasing the flow. Cold water is . brought from a mountain stream iu pipes and troughs and the camp ground is supplied from fau cets conveniently situated. Stages leave Eugene three days each week aud reduced rates are now given visitors on round-trip tickets by stage and railroad to the Belknap and Foley springs, McKenzie bridge and Blue river. Mr. A. P. Ostrander, manager of the springs, is a very obliging gentleman, and guests are made to feel at home. The b ith-rooms are well kept and the waters are excellent-for the' cure of many diseases, par ticularly rheumatism. The man or woman who loves pure air, bright and sparkling cold water, fresh and fragrant forests, moun tain scenery unfolding the beauties of na ture, will be amply rewarded with health and renewed energy by taking a vacation on the upper McKenzie. One of the 4. At Friendly's saw mill on Thursday morn ing El. Laskey removed a halter from a horse hitched to a cart for the purpose of replacing it with a brid'.e. Such a proceed ing as this frequently results disastrously and it was so in this instance. As soon as the 'halter was removed the horse broke away and ran at full speed with the cart up Main street, dashed into Skiptou's buggy shed and was knocked out by collision with the rear wall. When the horse was ap proached he appeared to be quite willing to submit to any kind attentions which might be shown him. BORN. HOWER. To the wife of Jacob Howcr, in this city, July 31, 1893, a girl.

To mourn her death, Mrs. Davis leaves a hus band, ten children, and a l;-.rge number of relatives and friends in this county.

He was anxious to get back, however, and re turned on Tuesday. Miss Erma Lawrence, who graduated at the O. A. C. this year, has been elected to a position iu the public schools of Oregon City.
