WATER DELAYS TRAFFIC. Cloudbursts on the Columbia Play Havoc with O. R. & N. Tracks. Tho Dalles, Or., June 4. As the re sult of a series of heavy raina yesterday afternoon, culminating in a eevere cloudburst at ono poiRt, three bad land slidea havo occured on the O. B. & N. roadway in consequence of which there is another blockade of traffic, although a large force has been sent to the scene of disaster, and hopes aro entertained tint tho tracks will be cleared today. Two of the slides took place between Quinn and Dlalock, and are each fully 300 feet wide, with from one to eoven feot of debris deposited on the tracks. Tho worst slide, however, occured at point three mileB east of Blalock, where a neavr cloudourst came down the canyon and carried out threo bents of tho railroad bridge, cutting out a ditch 36 feot in width and 18 feet deep. A force of 260 men waa sent out from this place in responeo to the demands of the situation along the main lines, while 60 additional men were dispatch ed to the Columbia Southern line at Biggs, where steady showers have pre' vailed all day, dolaying the trains, but causing no washouts of the tracks. So far as known there were no fa talities. TO PROTECT NIAGARA FALLS. House Committee Regards Jurisdic tion of U. S. Unquestionable. Washington, June 6.

COOKING IN THE CHURCH. Menla Fornlfihed for Occasions In Vp-to-Da(e Houses at Worship. Light nnd heavy housekeeping as practiced in up-to-date churches 1s a revelation to the people who see It for tho first time. Tbe country visitor is apt to be shocked or delighted, accord ing to temperament Many conserva tive folk, Including missionaries, rural pastors, and laymen, come to censure and remain to digest Why shouldn't a church havo a kitchen? What could be more practical? It Is asked. There are clubrooms, libraries, and gymnasiums In churches nowadays, and people say It Is quite proper to have a well-furnished kitchen capable of supplying after meeting refresh ments and the 6olId meals of rarer oc casions. In some churches tho ecclesiastic kitchen gives forth a savory effluenco three times a day. A cup of coffee hot from the urn often heartens the "min ister before he ascends the pulpit Aged members of tho congregation, wearied by a long service, may be revived In the basement by a draught of steaming oolong. "It is n sign of progress," said an enthusiastic matron, who manages ono church kitchen, the other day. "The food at festivals and sociables used to bo a byword. Everything was cold, soggy and uneatable. "People nibbled at things out of a sense Of religious duty nnd went to a good restaurant afterward. Now the menu nt any affair compares favorably with what you get outside. "A missionary to China said that our church reminded her of tho Chinese temples which are used as hotels by travelers. Anybody out there may sleep and get his meals In tho temple. which is often tho only available pub lic house. "Now, I think that speaks well for tho Chinese and for ourselves. Tho church can never be mado too popular and too useful. Religion ought not to bo an enemy to modern Improvements." "One good thing about church kitch ens," said an uptown matron, "Is that they permit us servant tyrannized folk to practice- a little cookery. I could never dare to enter my kitchen at homo and mako experiments In cook's pres ence. But I can go to tho church es tablishment and educate myself In all the departments of culinary art Also one meets there ladles who havo trav eled and thero Is n chanco to acquire the rudiments of cosmopolitan cookery." n even Re. William II. Chase, tho portrait paint er, tells n story of the tlmo wheu tho late James McNeil Whistler was at outs with tho Royal Academy nt Lon don. About this tlmo an admirer of Whistler In Pennsylvania wrote him requesting his nutograph. Tho letter was sent In care of tho academy. That Institution took advantago of the op portunity thus offered to revenge Itself for the alleged nffrouts put upon It by tho caustic Whistler. Tho Pennsyl vania's letter was returned to him some months later, through the dead letter olllco at Washington, and It boro on tho- envelopo tho word "Unknown," repeated as many times as spaco would allow. Washington Star. crs three or four feot deep scattered" over ICO square miles. Its most strik ing feature Is Its variety of colors, sup posed to be duo to tho vnrlegatcd soli of tho river bottom. No fewer than twelvo shades of pink, blue, yollow and brown havo been noted, each log bar ing Its own uniform shade. Tho logs taken out havo ranged from forty to 200 feet In length nnd from fifteen to twenty Inches In diameter, and It Is estimated that more than 150,000, averaging seventy feet, remain.

Paradoxical as It may seem, tho most difficult thing to prove In a court of law Is who you are. It Is a Blmple matter If you havo still living plenty of relatives of an older generation, but supposo your parents nnd uncles and aunts are dead, It becomes well-nigh Impossible, says a writer In tho New York World. As a matter of fact, your knowledge of your identity is absolute ly hearsay. You know your father and mother called you their son, nnd to that fact you may testify If the. ques tion of your Identity should ever coma before a Judge and Jury. But tho testi mony goes before tho Jury with tho wurnlng from tho Judge that It Is only hearsay, for you have no personal knowledge of the matter. Official town or parish records aro valuable, but by no means conclusive. Suppose you are John Smith, son of Robert and Mary Smith, born at Al bany on August 1, 1805. Tho record of births In tho Bureau of Vital Statistics at Albany will prove that a son named John was born to Robert and Mary Smith on that date ; tho register of tho church may prove that John, son of Robert and Mary Smith, was baptized on a certain date, but they do not prove that you are the John Smith, of whom these are records. To establish the connection between you and the person mentioned In tbo records, in other words to prove your own identity, Is the difficulty. If your mother Is nllve she can do It; If any relative who has known you slnco you were born Is alive he can do It The successive suits for tbo estato of A. T. Stewart failed on such grounds as these. The plaintiffs, cousins of the late Mrs. Stewart, were unable to prove their relationship. It was- necessary In one of these cases that a man should prove his late father and A. T. Stewart to have been brothers, but be had no personal knowledge of tho matter; ho had heard his father In Ireland refer to A.. T. Stewart as his brother, but the court would not let him testify even to that, and, as the defendants de nied the relationship, the case fell to the ground. The Identity of a person becomes even harder of proof after be la dead. In tho Royal Arcanum there-are sev eral hundred thousand dollars of death, benefits tied up because of the Inability of heirs to.prove that the Insured man Is dead. Very often It is necessary to success In litigation over an estate, to provo not only who were your parents, but who were your grandparents. Family Bibles, with the records therein, help out In this, but are not at all conclu sive. Birth and marriage certificates are accepted as corroborative, but it requires quite a mass of such matter, together with at least some witnesses who can testify of their own personal knowledge, before a court will accept such a fact as proved to Its satisfaction. PASSING OF FAMOUS HEN. Had Laid -l,TSO Eetem Defore She Died at Aire of 22. "Betsy," Georgo Bradley's famous hen, known to poultry raisers all through Tennessee, Is dead at the ago of 22 years, and has been burled with honor's befitting her career of useful ness. Betsy was one of n brood of chicks hatched on tho day that Bradley's eld est son was born, nearly twenty-three years ago. By the date of tho young man's birth the family established her age. Betsy was occasionally permitted to Indulge her motherly Instincts, upon which occasions she Invariably brought Into tho world from a dozen to fifteen of the finest chicks that over scratch ed gravel. vk When not engnged In motherly duties Betsy sometimes worked overtime and laid two eggs a day. As year after year passed without any appreciable difference In Betsy's strenuouslty, she became tho wonder of tho country and tho barnyard Jewel of tho Bradley family. It Is estimated that during that time this Industrious hen has laid 4,750 eggs and hatched 570 chickens. Over her grave Mr. Bradley will erect a headstono Inscribed as follows : "Hero lies laying Betsy. Born In 1883; died In 1005. Sho did muny a fowl deed for those she loved. Peace to her bones let them lay. May she lay again soma other day." If tho 4,750 eggs that Betsy laid dur ing ber nineteen years of faithful serv ice wero sold In tho market at tholr present prlco they, would realize $008.50. If her 570 chickens brought nn averngo prlco of 30 cents thoy would represent a market vnluo of $171. On this basis Betsy earned $1,070,50 for her owner beforo sho retired from active duty and commenced to take Ufa easy. New York Herald, Terrible Thought.
