the train dashed by, the .fork reached
out, hit it a diff, and sent the pouch
about fifty feet away. Mr. Taffe looked
surprised, ran and got the sack, and
placed it in the. mail car; hurriedly
turned about as the train was pulling
out with his visitors and said : '.'Well ; I
never did see anything just like thatl"

The Panama Canal.
Notwithstanding the. fact that the Nic
aragua canal is going' right ahead, the
French have decidyfto renew work on
the Panama canal. When operations
were suspended on the isthmus two
or three years agej the company was bank
rupt, and its nachincry was left to be
wrecked and reined by disuse and ex
posure, while he excavation began to
fill up rapidly
The situati n is most unpromising,
but the stockl olders have invested too
much money in the canal to give it up,
and the conce ssions granted by the Col
umbian govs rnment arc of such im
mense value t bat ah effort will be made
to retain thee 1. The latest intelligence
is that a ne company will be formed
with a capit of $30,000,000 to resume
work. It is istimated that this sum
will be sufficient to "open forty-five of
the fifty kilometers of the canal, and
with such pijogress it is believed that
the remaindenoi the money needed will
be speedily fottqeoming.
Skilled engineers have time and again
reported that the difficulties in the way
of this enterpijis are tremendous. Hun
dreds of millidnsj of dollars have already
been swallowen op in the ditch, and it
will take hundreds of millions more to
make it a success. Its completion is
possible, but tiiel enormous cost should
cause the stockholders to reconsider.
Recently lepibfy has spread on the
isthmus, and tfttt region is a lazaretto.
Yellow fever t evails there nearly all
the year round" and the horrors of chol
era will doubtless be added this fall and.
winter. The canal, if it is ever finished,
will be a veritable ditch of death.

THE DALLES, - OREGON
AJi ECCENTBIC CHARACTER
Death or a Noted Pioneer or Portland in
England.
From the Telegram.
Long, yes, many years, before any one
ever dreamed that the 'Mount Tabor
locality would become a place of resi
dence for Portlanders, to say nothing of
its growing to be a ' fashionable suburb
of this city, a Hudson Bay company
clerk named Tom Hudson took up a
tract of land along what is known as the
Base Line road.
' Hudson was of a taciturn nature, re
ceiving a splendid salary; but never ex
pending a dollar not absolutely requisite
for his simple wants. He was exceeding
ly eccentric, and none of his old asso
ciates wondered at his seemingly insane
action. Tom was then, -it -was alleged,
about 28 years old. He built himself a
log hut, in which he lived,- with the
companionship of several dogs and a very
large collection of books that he brought,
and some that were subsequently sent
to him from his home in Lancashire,
England. -. -
. In after years, as the time passed by,
straggling people settled within a - mile
or two of the land he- pre-empted, but
he entered into no intercourse with
them. To all intents and purposes he
was a. hermit. When not engaged in
laboring in his garden or perusing his
books, he passed his time in manufac
turing all kinds of aerial propelling
machines. Some who knew him, but
are not willing to make the statement
under oath, say that they saw him fondle
his English golden sovereigns, earned
in the service of the Hudson Bay Com
pany, with that degree of earnestness
depicted by the hero in the beautiful
opera "The chimes of Normandy" Gas
pard, the miser. This may be true -or
not, but this part of the story is given
for what it is worth.
It is something like ten or a. dozen
years ago that Hudson left his pre
empted land, not further advanced in
improvement than when he primarily
located upon it. He bade no one adieu,
nor did he tell any person whither he
was going, or how long he would be
absent. The only sign of human feeling
he exhibited was to transfer the care of
his dogs to a neighbor till his return.
Bat that day never dawned. He re
visited his native heath in Lancashire,
after an absence of almost an ordinary
lifetime. He, of couree found very few
ot the friends of his youth alive, or at
their old homes, and those having had a
similar - experience can imagine the
heartsickness that overcame him.
, Well, to cut short what might be
woven into a romance in actual life
Hudson died in London about three
months ago, bequeathing his Mount
Tabor property, worth perhaps $1,000,
000 now, and other goods and chattels
valued at $250,000, to three Lancashire
cousins. The latter property the in
heritors will have no trouble in obtain
ing, but there may be some trouble in
getting hold of the Oregon property, as
it is alleged that the base-line land has
been sold for delinquent taxes. This,
however, is merely a conjecture. A big
law firm of San Francisco has the matter
in charge, a member of which will be
here in a few days to establish the status
of the Mount Tabor property. Io any'
event, should the matter go into court,
it will be of a more sensational nature
than has invited the attention of Ore
gon's judiciary for years.

annual return of $8,000,000.
