Mr. E. E. Lytle is being spoken of by
sympathizing friends for recorder. The
reason of the sympathy' is because his

of time to do his own work and the work

ployments his revenue will reach the
old figure.
Three workmen already have been dis
abled by having their foot crushed with
the iron rails. - One man lifts at one end
and two at the other of a 75ff-pound iron
rail, taking turn about, and as the single

dow, he cannot sustain the 425 pounds
weight long enough to keep it from fall

THE DURKEE WRECK.
Fred ' X.nsso Scalded to Death-
-Brake-
man FhUlips Killed.
Further particulars -of the Durkee
wreck, reported .yesterday, are learned
today. 'The wreck was caused by the
train running Into a cow. The fireman,
Fred Lusso, was scalded to death.- A
brakeman named Phillips was also
killed. .The engineer was injured, but
not fatally.
Lusso lived in La Grande, where he
owned ' a pretty home, besides- another
residence adjoining. He married one
of twin sisters in 1890, and leaves two
children. He was a member of the K.
of P., and was universally liked. Only
a few days ago he had written to a friend
in Mosier, saying that he Boon intended
to quit railroading and inquiring if land
could hot be secured there suitable for
a fruit farm.
Concerning the . brakeman nothing
can be learned. '.'.
Tremendous Slides and Washouts.
', The excess of rains have placed the
road-bed in a fearful condition below
this point. Washouts are frequent all
along the' mountain sides. The most
serious is that between Cascade Locks
and Eagle creek, where it is said a
mountain- is moving slowly toward the
river. ' It has already moved a foot and
made a curve of a straight piece of track
at its base. More trouble, also, is ex
pected at Reed's farm, as all indications
are to that end. It cannot be told when
a train will arrive from Portland. All
trains just now are annulled.
The Fruitgrowers' Association.
The Northwestern Fruitgrowers' Asso
ciation, embraces the states of Idaho,
Oregon and Washingtonand our north
ern neighbor, the province of British
Colombia. The object ot the association
is stated by Mr. Wilcox, president of the
Washington division, as of the greatest
benefit to the fruit industry in all ways
possible, and especially an aid to members
in marketing their products and obtain
ing the largest returns. The time has
come when nearly every industry must
consolidate and systemize itself or be
come overpowered, and the growing of
fruit is nq exception. -."'
"It is our purpose to open eommunica
tionwith wholesale fruit dealers in the
leading markets of the country, thus
forming a' connecting link and complet
ing a chain between the producer and
the. consumer, whereby we will be con
stantly informed of the condition of both
supply- and demand. We shall thus be
come ' possessed of information which
cannot but-be of inestimable value to
shippers of fruit and vegetables. . - .
"We alsd have reasonable assurance
that arrangements will be made with
the different railroads whereby local
branches of this association will receive
the benefit of carload rates, providing a
car be filled among the different societies
along one line of road."
. Anyone not already a member of this
association who can see anything in it
for them, should correspond with the
secretary, Mr. S. A. Clarke of Salem.
The membership fee is but one dollar
for each individual, and this amount
but feebly represents the benefits to be
derived."

ARC LIGHTS.
Another. Solution of the Pending Ques-
- tlon of the Council.
The question of municipal ownership
of electric light plants is being agitated
throughout Connecticut cities just now
and there are many arguments in. favor
of cities owning and operating the elec
tric light plants with which their streets
and-public buildings are lighted. For
instance, The Dalles is paying about
$3,500 a year for lighting streets and
public buildings, which constitutes a
great share of the company's business
in this city. The city could operate
this ' plant and probably pay all ex
penses from outside patronage, securing
the arc lights free. The plan is ven
tured to the city. council as a paying
investment, if a proposition agreeable
to both parties could be made. This
would settle- the pending discussion
anent the lights in an agreeable man
ner. The writer does not know if the
plan is feasible at present, the charter
may be a fatal obstacle, but it is time
our charter was amended anyway.

Coyote Versus Kagle.,
While walking- the flats near Port

eler witnessed an exciting1 fight be
tween an eagle and a coyote. The
eagle had. caught a rabbit, and the
coyote, appearing upon the scene
about that time, undertook to . take it
away. The man made up his mind at
once thai the . eagle would tear the
coyote to. pieces, but to "his-.surprise
the coyote g-ot away with the rabbit.
and so demoralized the eagle that the

BEWARE OF THEMt
Fakirs In Tacoma -with a Smooth Con
fidence Scheme. .
A pair of very smooth fakirs have
been swindling Tacoma merchants in a
successful manner during the 'last few
months, and their operations were so
shrewdly conducted as - to give the im
pression that they will be heard from
again in the same role in other sections
of the Northwest. Two men came to
Tacoma in December and registered at
the Fife hotel under the names of Bald
win and. Willow of Chicago. Willow
presented himself at E. . J. McManus'
grocery store at Eighteenth - and J
streets, shortly afterward, and stated
that he was desirous of securing a busi
ness, for. a friend of bis who had $3,000
to invest. Next day Willow -brought'
the friend in and introduced him as
C. P. Byham,; who was pleased witK
the store and readily agreed, to pay
$1,700 for it, the cash to be forthcoming
with the arrival of his family from Chi
cago. The family : came, bnt . not. so
the coin, which .the Byhams explained
would be forwarded .from their bank
at the windy city, and telegrams
to that effect were shown Mr. Mc
Manns, who yielded up possession
of the building containing both stock
and residence with a portion of his fur
niture. Then commenced a series of
commercial transactions withtailors,
furniture dealers and, in fact, everyone'
who could be induced', to sell articles for'
half cash and half groceries, until the
family of five were well stocked up, and
the grocery store .had done a mighty
large business, but none of the caBh
promised ever materialized.', ' Finally
Mr. McManus began to suspect the true
state of affairs and commenced proceed
ings to .'regain possession' of his business.
He' succeeded, but found little but the
building left, the Byhams having gone
so far as to rob the house of the furni
ture, while a mysterious fire occurred
the night of their departure, doing
further damage amounting to over $500.
Taken all in all. Mr. McManus'. exper
ience with the sharpers was disastrous
in the extreme, and dealers Vould do
well to act with caution in putting too
implicit confidence in the promises of
strangers who approach them to purchase
their business. ' '.- ; '
