Corvallis Times: The new snag

queer one, but It is none tlie lets np

ll was before the i.lo face trod the
valley of the Willamette that in the "
vicinity of Kuga.c there nourished a

lered to the four winds, ami all the
monument left of their existence is tad
gold letters Unit describe, th name of
the new snagboat. "Matliloina" Is
the name the extinct Indian tribe
gave to the Willamette river, and as
III" name of the powerful craft that Is
to steam up and dowu th river's
bosom it Is exceedingly appropriate.
The new bout Is magnificent craft
nf her type, and both otlhtirs and men
are proud of her. She is 131 feet long
and .'U feet wide. Her engines are
capablu of developing 400 liorso power,
ami she liss a hoisting engine of 150
horse power. She Is built as strongly
as n warship, and can stand many a
hard knock from swift currents, snugs
uud drifts, as she proceeds with her
wurk ol clearing obstructions out or ttie
river. HI10 has a bow almost as square
us that of a scow, and half the way
back she is perfectly tint 011 th bot
tom. Sihe has hot and cold baths,
and her apartments, kept as neat aa
In, aro roomy and comfortable.
Th "Matliloina" carries a crew of
thirteen men, but she has accommoda
tions lor twenty. Captain Hurt
llatc'i, formerly of the Corvallis and
the Hoag, Is her master, and O tlal
brulth Is llrst olllccr. Jell' Owlnn,
formerly of the Corvnllls and of the
I long h clilet engineer, and Millard
lis, yes, of Corvallis Is one of the fire

Tho approach of winter always
brings what might be called an ava
lanche of street beggars. A Dew
dodge Is for soiiii) young man to ap-
pioiich you 011 the street with four
pennies in his hand ami ask for another
to make llvo to gel u cup of collee, for
ho has hint nothing to t at since morn
ing. No person outside of a mlsurcan
hardly rofuso such a request, and so
the beggar gels lots or coppers ana
nickels, loo, for a person who has no
coprs will say: "Here's a nickel,"
ami would scorn to ask for tlie eliang.
It is said that one beggar reaps an
easy harvest of about (1 u night in this
way.
