Mr. lowem' Mountain Slide 'And
nip
Into Hood Kiver.
Mr, A. Lowen, who is here from the
east purchasing wool, yesterday made a
fishing trip to the country in company
with Mr. Russell. They left the Regu
lator at Hood River where they procured
a team and buggy, and drove up the
river, several miles to Mr. Winans
place. Here they left their buggy, and
journeyed on foot, in quest of a quiet
retreat in which to inveigle the speckled
beauties known to school in and about
the shaded nooks of that classic stream.
In making this jaunt they ascended a
steep loosely covered gravel mountain,
and while passing along, about 200 feet
from the edge of the water, Mr. lowen
lost his footing, and slid and rolled with
fearful velocity to the rim of a project
ing perpendicular wall, over which he
vaulted into the river. He gained his
feet in water up to his arm pits, and
walked to a rock midstream where he
scrambled out, and began to realize that
he was badly injured. His clothing was
torn to shreds, and his body, legs and
arms were badly cut and bruised. His
escape from death was miraculous. As
soon as Mr. Russell found him he assisted
him back to the road, where a party of
ladies and gentlemen were met on horse
back, and a messenger was dispatched
to Mr. Winans for the buggy. The ac
cident occurred about 10 a. ra., and it
was nearly 4 p. m., before they started
from Mr. Winans to return to The
Dalles. At Mr. W.'s everything was
done for Mr. Lowen that could be, de
vised, and at Hood River he went to bed
until .he rain me along, reaching the
Umatilla house at 11 :55. Here he took
his room, and Dr. Logan was called in
to dress his wounds. It was a glad sur
prise to find that no bones were broken,
and he will speedily recover from his
cuts and bruises. He left a diamond
ring and a valuable watch charm some
where along the line of flight, but has
no intention whatever of returning for
them.
Mill creek is literally swarming with
trout. They are not large as those com
ing from Trouf lake and Fifteen Mile,
but they belong to the superb family of
finny luxuries.
Messrs. Thornbury, Haight and Cates
returned by steamer Regulator last
evening from an outing to Trout lake.
They report the place literally filled
with people. ' They . are ther? from
Portland and all over' the - country.
Fishing is not so good where there is a
crowd. ' ;
Current Topic.
Another cable car accident occurred
yesterday in Portland. The car ran
from the top of the heights to the bottom,
loaded ; yet nobody wa killed. Several
people were badly hurt.
An entire block in Portland was leveled
by fire last nightr bounded.by Washing
ton, Stark, 6th and 7th streets.
The situation, candidly expressed, at
Homestead, indicates a reign of terror.
Political opponents- of republican candi
dates are endeavoring- to make capital
out of it. The entire division of the
National Guard of Pennsylvania, abont
10,000 strong, haB been ordered to- sup

gerated. It might as well be considered advis
able to withhold further discouraging
reports concerning crops in this portion
of Oregon until after harvest. From
several well-known authorities it is
learned that the reports of early June
will not be verified. Men such as
Messrs. Hembree, of Kent, Commis
sioners Darneille and Kincaid, of this
county, who have just returned from a
trip, and several others who are prac
tical, give it as their opinion that much
wheat which was considered worthless a
month ago will turn out at least a half
a crop or more. One case is cited show
ing where a farmer was preparing to
cut his wheat for hay. He got the
mower and was. about to commence,
when his neighbors advised him to wait.
He did so and will now be rewarded by
a fair crop of wheat from those same
fields. Similar instances are referred to,
proving that the first damaging reports
will not be established by the harvest.
Mr. M. Kennedy, of Wamic gave us a
brief call this forenoon. Mr. K. con
firms recent' statements concerning
wheat. His fall sown wheat will be
good, and spring wheat is fair, and " this
is the case generally with his neighbors.
As to prices, nothing is yet developed
upon which to base an intelligent .esti
mate, though farmers may consider
themselves fortunate if the prices of
last year are duplicated. Then, as is
generally the case, the early prices
were the best, and farmers who waited
for a raise were forced to sell at a loss or
hold their crops. They were given
what would amount to volumes of ad
vice, chiefly by men who were interested
or who knew nothing about "it, and so
were no better off or no worse off than if
they had relied on their own intelligent
judgment. While the year may not be
in all respects as prosperous for Ore
gon farmers as last year, there is as yet
no reason to believe that it will not be
reasonably so.
At Cost.
For the next thirty days we will sell
wall paper at cost. 10,, 15, and 20 cents
double roll to make room for new stock.
