Mrs. Kate Ann Williams, wife of ex-
United States Attorney-General George
H. Willliams, died at her . residence on
Eighteenth and Couch streets, Portland,
shortly before 10 o'clock yesterday
morning,' aged 61 years, 6 months and
14 days. Mrs. Williams was born in
Shepardtow'n, Va., on October 4, 1832,
says the Oregonian. - She moved to the
West with her parents early in life, and
twenty-six years ago was united in
marriage to Judge WilliamB. They
moved to Washington where Judge
Williams .was elected to the United
States senate and remained there until
after the expiration of his term as sena
tor and as attorney-general, to which
office he was appointed by President
Grant.-' ' Mrs. Williams was a leader in
Washington social circles, but after her
return to Portland she withdrew entirely
from society and devoted herself to the
study of the Bible,' ' which pursuit she
continued until shortly before her death.
The funeral was private and took place
from Mrs; WilliamB' - late residence at
2 :30 p. m. today.

Four boyB of industrial army propen

left on foot for the East yesterday, but at
Celilo' were overtaken, captured and
brought back the same evening, without
a shot being fired, by some older broth
ers. They were surprised in ambush,
their retreat-cut off, and they were com
pelled to surrender . unconditionally.
They consequently struck their colors
and returned to camp. On leaving this
city they bade good bye to their play
fellows, saying when they came back
they would have seen four-story brick
buildings, and would wear whiskers,
but when they returned a few hours
later, they were weary and footsore, the
bright air castles they had built van
ished in thin air, and they soon betook
themselves to bed and the land of
dreams, perchance to enjoy the sights
and experiences not vouchsafed to them
in real life. '"Twas ever thus."

Itocky Second Street.
Second street is impassible for heavy
teams. A few weeks since the street
was very muddy and there were several
deep ruts in the road, but the bottom of
the rut was not quite hub deep and the
wagon could be pulled out of it. Country
teamsters now declare there is no bottom
to the road and are constantly complain
ing about the hard pulling and the
horse's feet, and that It is likely to con
tinue so the year round. Second street
s therefore a nuisance, and should be
abated... . There are several plans by
which this might be done. A barb wire
fence across the road at the top
of the brewery hill grade, a 6-wire fence,
fastened with strong staples, and an
officer on each side of the' road, would
prevent teams coming down -this grade
and thence on to the street. Another
plan would be to make the proposed new
road known as the. Elton grade, leading
from the hill to Fourth street. This
would avoid - Second street alto
gether and either Third or Fourth street
could be used. The third plan and per
haps the best of all, is foKthe city coun
cil to order the obnoxious rock all off
the street. This would make a good
street for six months in the year, and
during the wool and wheat, hauling
season. For the remaining six months
teamsters Tould prefer mud and chuck
holes to the great coarse, sharp-edged
rock, .ordered by the committee on
streets, which jump and slide this way
and that as the wheels, pass through
them, laming the horse's leet and fur-
ishing a footing a mountain goat would
evade. " '.' . -

THE HOTTEST DESERT.
It la the Cocapah and Is Too Sultry for
.'."'.' Human Existence.
"It is "not generally known that the
hottest, most arid desert in the world
is in the United States, but such is the
fact," said a resident of San Diego, to
a representative of the St. Louis Globe
Democrat. - "The Cocapah desert is
small; but it is the most dangerous of"
any in the known world. -
"Standing upon the mountain range
to the east, looking' across the sixty
miles of plain to another mountain
range on the west, with glimpses of
two small lakes midway between, it
does not appear that it requires any
extraordinary feat of danger or endur
ance to cross the plain. And this has
caused the' loss of many lives. The
sand of that desert is so hot that in a
few miles the shoes will be literally
burned off the traveler s feet, beasts
will be overcome before half the dis
tance is encompassed, and the ad
venturous traveler dies in agony, lit
erally consumed with heat from with
out and thirst within.
"Many have been known to attempt
the journey, and "but few have been
knofrn to return. These have gone no
further than the first lake, -and find
ing it salt water, have beaten' a retreat.
The nearest lake has been reached
often enough to know that it ebbs and
flows with the Gnlf of California and
the water is the same, hence it must
be a part of that body, although sep
arated from it by sixty or seventy
miles of solid earth and a high range
of mountains. .
"This range was probably at one
time an island and the Cocapah desert
the bottom of the sea. I once started
across the barren waste to investigate,
but I had not gone ten miles before be
coming completely exhausted, the soles
of my feet were blistered with heat,
my brain grew dizzy, I could get no
air and the breath seemed to stop in
my throat.
. "I turned back just in time to save
my life, and when I reached the forests
of the mountain once more I was de
lirious for hours."' - .
