SIGNED IN BLOOD.
Contract of Murderous Members of a
Moonshiners Association.
Charles T. Dazey, the author of "In
Old Kentucky," relates some interest
ing stories about the moonshiners "of
Kentucky and Tennessee, with whom
he associated while visiting that sec
tion in search of material for his play.
"I became more or less intimate with
many of them," said he to a New York
Times reporter, "and learned .of the
existence of a verv strancre sort of as
sociation having its headquarters in
one of the counties in southern Ken
tucky, bordering on Tennessee. The
object of the association was .to pro
tect the members from the government
and to encourage the manufacture and
sale of illicit whisky. Whenever a mem
ber of the band was arrested by the
revenooers,' as the revenue officers
are called, three or -four others would
testify to an alibi. " Each member was
bound by an oath signed in blood to
kill anyone who informed on another.
In this way they hoped to protect each
other from the raids of the deputy
marshals. The secret leaked out in
some way, and for a time until the
band was effectually broken up--the
men, when captured, were taken Xo
Louisville for trial; but there's just as
much moonshining done away back in
the fastnesses ' of the mountains as

ITHE REED GEYSER.
It Hti Broken Oat Again and Is Worse
. . - ':- ' Than Ever. '
After the east-bound passenger train
had left "Bonneville" last night' a mam
moth elide from above Came down and
covered the track for a distance of two
hundred feet, and estimated at twenty
to forty feet deep. This ia the scene of
the same trouble that has occurred for
the last two years and has been desig
nated by the press as the "Reed geyser."
There is nothing of the geyser about
it, however, except that it is intermit
tent. The push-outs occurred at regu
lar intervals of about a half hour at
first,' the time gradually increasing be
tween them after the first twelve hours.
The slide of last night ia as extensive
as the one two years ago, and will cause
a delay of several days before freight
can again be handled by" the . Union
Pacific company. The agent here has
received orders to accept no perishable
freight and a train load of stock belong
ing to C. M. Grimes of Baker City, which
left last night waa returned thia morn
ing to The Dalles with instructions to
unload and feed in the yards here. A
work train left this morning at 10
o'clock for the scene of .the slide. Teleg
rapher Jones also left with instruments
and will establish an office there to bet
ter communicate to the company the
progress made and features of the slide.
Transfers of mail and passengers will be
made by boat.
This slide is the biggest one on record,
and is little less than a convulsion of
nature. .The following diagram,- ae
explained by an engineer, will il
lustrate its nature. A canyon formed
by two high walls converges to a narrow
point, through which emerged a tiny
creek. The rock sides of this canyon
are decomposed and soft, and the rains
wash down its elopes considerable quan
tities of material which choke its mouth.
There is no other outlet, and, as a son
sequence, a lake is formed, which bursts
its bounds when it reaches certain pro
portions. So tremendous is the volume
of , water that'it transports rocks as large
as a locomotive and fir trees four feet
through. From the canyon to the rail
road track is a gentle slope about a mile
long, and this is the region affected by
the slide.

River
Mr. Reed bad taken up a ranch on
both Bides of the track here, had built a
house, barn and shed on the north side
of the railroad, and had a thrifty-looking
orchard started, when the slide of
two years ago came. This occurred in
the night, blocking up one door and
reaching half way up the windows. The
family escaped through the upper half
of the windows. In tne morning the
outlook was discouraging. The east
half of the orchard was gone, the hay
stack had disappeared and the house
was moving slowly and surely down tow
ard the river. The railroad track was
buried twelve feet deep and a locomotive
was half buried .with rocks and debris.
Mr. Reed has since moved his house to
higher ground, as indicated in the dia
gram, and the company's watchman,
who has ever since been employed at
this point, built a small shanty near
where the old house stood, oblivious of
the danger and indifferent to the experi
ence which nearly cost Mr. Reed and
family their lives.
This point on the railroad line has
damaged the Union Pacific company
many thousands of dollars, and the
worst feature is that it cannot be satis
factorily repaired. It is said that the
company will build their line in a curve,
following the water's edge, and thus be
beyond the reach of further slides.

I wish through your paper to Inform
the people of The Dalles and vicinity
that accounts of the progress of - matters
at the Midwinter fair grounds in San
Francisco papers are misleading, and
far from being correct. None of the
buildings are entirely finished, very few
exhibits are in place, an army of work
men are rushing the work fast a possi
ble, but people who wish to see all the
fair better not "come here before Feb.
loth, and March 1st will be better. The
large buildings are grand and the fair
will be a great success and also a big
humbug, as only the state and part of
the county exhibits will be free. All else
will be extra charges and it will cost-
about $10 to see the entire show, includ
ing the ' Eskimos, black people from
Egypt and dirty Arizona Indians. ' ". Our
Warm Spring Indians are kings com
pared to these people. ".'. ;
Please publish the foregoing, as many
people - are coming here who cannot
afford to stay here a month and must do
so or go home and. not see the fair at all.

Oregon's Branch Asylum.
The location of the branch insane asy
lum in ". Eastern Oregon hangs fire and
there is gnashing of teeth in Pendleton,
The Dalles, Union and other aspirants
for the plum. Salem newspapers and
politicians are working in every way to
delay the matter and finally down the
echeme. The conditions in Oregon are
the same as in Washington, and that
state would be as greatly benefited by a
branch asylum at eoine point east of the
mountains as we are by the Medical
Lake institution.' The board of physi
cians have examined the sanitary con
ditions of various towns in Eastern
Oregon and have submitted their report,
and we believe the board of commis
sioners Governor Pennoyer, Treasurer
Metchan and Secretary McBride will
in a few days locate the asylum, not
withstanding the hard fight made by
Salem, which is unreasonable in its de
sire for the whole hog, and doe3 not con
sidea the enormous expense of trans
porting patients, the long distance trav
elled and the inconvenience to relatives
of patients, as at present. Walla Walla
