French & Co. received a telegram yes'
terday morning that Floyd and Guth
rie' eheep which left The Dalles Satur
day were stopped by the company at

oa account of the industrials. The
owners consequently turned the sheep
over to the company. . We learn today
that since then the company weakened
and loaded all the industrials and pulled
them eastward. The four legged sheep,
also, were enabled to leave shortly after.
Another freak - of nature has been
added to the list of Dalles productions

two distinct calyxes, with two petals,
arranged like any ordinary., double
flower. Both the flower and leaf are
very large. If Mrs. Huntington's plant

the originator of one of the most beauti

A lively runaway of a foil r-horse team
occurred this afternoon from Pease &
Mays' warehouse, near the Railroad
track. A passing engine frightened the
norses ana tney started tall till, and in
the turn upset the wagon, breaking the
coupling pole, thus freeing themselves
from the after . -part of the - wagon.
When they were clear of it thev went
break -neck speed up the street and was
stopped in their mad rush at the upper
end of town. " Dr. Bell, the owner, was
quite badly bruised and scratched in the
effort to prevent their , getting away.
The damage to the wagon and team was
slight.
News From Dr. Logan,
A letter from Dr. Logan to the editor.
under date of May 8th, states that he
arrived at Galveston Sunday, May 6th,
after an almost continuous ride of five
days and nights. "From Kansas City
to that point," says the doctor, "we
passed over some very pretty country,
still there was a good deal of sameness
about it. Galveston is a lazy-looking
city of about 40,000 population, so they
claim; looks old and dingy.' I find
quite different weather than at home,
being hot and . depressing. Cannot
blame them for looking lazy. Think I
would soon get that way were I to re
main here long. In fact, feel a Utile lazy
novo. I hardly think I will take the
Mexico trip. If will require about
eight or ten days additional time and
presume that the weather will be much
the same as ever. I will doubtless take
the other excursions, and expect to be
horns in about two weeks from this
writing."
Dr. Logan will return home via Kan
sas City.

THE SANTIAM TEMPLE."
As m
Mausoleum as Fake, But as a at
nral Cariosity a Sucsess.
The Salem Statesman gives us a sane
and intelligible description of the re
puted temple of the Santiami It is lo
cated, it says, about. ,10 miles: east of
Melhama on the little north fork of the'
rushing, roaring i Santiam river, by
whose icy, clear -waters its base is
washed. .The monument rises about 40
feet above the level of its rocky sur
roundings, and probably 80 feet above
the river. It is of solid rock, pyramid
ical in shape, and its to this fact and the
regularity of the formation of its layers
that its construction is ascribed to man.
It was stated that the several layers of
stone were cemented closely together.
but this is not the case, as examination
demonstrated.' The temple is nothing
more nor less than-a natural formation.
an upheaval or displacement of several
solid strata of rock, and in the upheaval
and. by the subsequent action of the
water and the elements and erosion, its
mystical shape has been wrought.
While its form is irrrgular and composed
of irregularly shaped stones, it is still
symmetrical. Some of the rocks are
octagonal, while others -have six faces,
and still others five. On one side there
are regular steps, at irregular intervals,
and by these the ascent to the apex is
easy, while on the other sides the walls
are- perpendicular, apparently built by
the piling of one large boulder upon the
other.
The entire structure is moss-grown
and bears the marks of age, but recently
the discoverers, believing their find to
be a valuable one, have filed a mineral
claim upon it and commenced the work
of development.' The side, consisting of
steps, has been laid bare, but all en
deavor to find an opening or a keystone
has of course proved futile, for nature
does not build that way. Efforts were
at first made to drill into the stone, but
as - nobody could hope to accomplish
anything bv blowing off a few layers of
the solid rock, no powder was wasted
and the beauty of the smoother surface
of the black granite mass is defaced by
nothing more objectionable than a few
drilled holes of shallow depth. As a
temple, ancient ruins, tomb or pyramid
"Temple Rock" is a fake, but as a val
uable curiosity it is interesting and
well worthy the effort that a viBit to its
secluded resting place entails.
Mr. Ullrich, the cigar manufacturer,
has an inventive turn of mind and has
just patented a motor for pumping water
to a height, to be used for irrigating pur
poses. It.is a long box in which are
paddles, which catch the water from a
flau.e, two or three feet above the level
of the creek, and are propelled by its
force. These paddles are fastened to an
endless chain. Yesterday water was
successfully pumped to a height of 20
feet, but it was a test to establish the
principle and not enough was pumped
for practical purposes. ' Further im
provements contemplated by Mr. Ullrich
will make the contrivance very valuable
for irrigation purposes. '

A Strange Conflagration.
A street was literally set on fire at
Bnda-Pesth, Hungary, a short time ago.
A glass carboy, filled with benzine.
accidentally fell from the car in
which it was being, hauled.' Of
course, it broke, arid the benzine ' ran
over the street and through the slot
into the conduit of the electric rail
road. An electric car passed just at
that time, a spark new out between
the . trolley and the conductor in
the conduit, and - the . benzine
burst into a sheet . of " flame.
The frightened passengers escaped
somehow, and then everybody had to
wait until the fare burned itself out.

'Enlisted for the War."'
One of the most pleasing, taking plays
ever presented .to the ,, people of The
Dalles, outside of. strong classical pro
ductions, will be given tomorrow even
ing at the opera house. A traveling
company, having actors of equal merit,
would advertise it as an all-star com
pany, -for each character is well sus
tained, and the plot is of profound in
terest. . "Enlisted for the War" is one
of the higher class dramas, and gives
amply scope for . good playing. It is
needless to say' that the demands are
fully met. While the play is first-class
in every regard, the admission price is
low, and we confidently predict a full
house. The cast is as follows :
Robert Trueworth, a soldier.. G D. Snowden

Observation Time Service.
The Western Union Telegraph Co.
will establish in The Dalles, about July
1st the observatory time service. This
is a service which is in operation in an
the larger cities throughout the country
and is a great convenience to jewelers
and. all who value absolutely correct
time. The telegraph company, in con
nection with their service, furnishes an
electric self-winding clock, which is con
nected by a time wire with the local
office and transmits time every day at
uoon from the Lick observatory. This
is the official standard time, regulated
by observatory signals and absolutely
perfect. They are self-winding and self-
setting and are in every way a unique
contrivance. The establishment of this
service will give the people uniform
time and place The Dalles abreast of the
times.
