A dispatch received from Washington last night announced the appointment of -J. A. Crossen to the position of post master here. His many friends have been i shaking lands ; with' him this morning, and are ' highly pleased to know that he is the lucky one. Superintendent Borie: has morethan 00 mens at work, on the road between the locks and Bonneville and. will com plete that piece of road if anyone can. Yesterday a long stretch of road around the eliding mountain was supposed to be in readiness for the ties, when a slide came down, sweeping a quarter bf -a mile PEASE & MAYS. of the grade into the Columbia. It is a disheartening job, but Borie is staying with it in great shape. A number of teams are engaged in hauling the rocks frojn the sidewalks and crosswalks. " It helps the ap pearance of the streets besides making it much pleasanter tor pedestrians. . The land office is still braced up, and as the sidewalk is most used by people going to the boat landing the . braces are an unmitigated nuisance. The case of the state against James Crate was tried yesterday before a jury in Justice Davis court, Hon. E. B Dufur and Mr-Walton appearing for the defense.- The case occupied the entire afternoon, and in spite of a strongly made , defense, the jury brought in, a verdict of guilty. ' Sentence was pro nounced this morning,' defendant being fined $35 and .costs." , Mr. R. J. Ginn, who. passed through on his way east Wednesday, tells us that Sherman county has been carefully canvassed and . shows 98,000 acres of wheat, J,hat will yield at the very lowest estimate sixteen bushels to the acre, or 1,568,000, bushels. Wheat is quoted as somewhat firmer, and it .is probable a price will be reached and maintained ,at railroad points in Sherman, of not less than 50 cents per bushel. . . ' . 1 ' J . B, Mullay, deputy collector of cus toms, has been, at Grant getting the alcohol together that was lost out of the warehouse at Grant. All but one barrel was recovered. Ten barrels were found in a drift pile. The fact that the dis tillery had gone out and the alcohol was n the river, is in our opinion, the cause of the tremendous run of salmon. A salmon that won't eat for six months is bound to drink for he must have. a stimulant.- ,- . ' -. Sheep owners and Sheep.

Adams. a e, . Aiier a season ot illness of two or three weeks, which was more aggravat ing than serious, I will once more give yon a few notes of interest. , many tnings oi interest have come and gone while I was una Die to commun icate them. Some, yon received indi rectly, which were very correctly given, Dut naif was not told. The. wreck of our little town, caused by high waters, is a thing unthought of until it came upon us.. The erist mill at the upper end of town Is incapacitated for grinding by the flumes being en tirely demolished, but .the mill itself stands unharmed.. Afterthe water had done its work of destruction at the mill. in its mad fury it came on tearing its Dans to pieces, until there were several hundred feet of James Chamberlain's lot coursing its way down stream, and tne lot is almost entirely spoiled and his house left within a few feet of the bank. But for the energy of some of our men oi town and three or four sheep-shearers who lent a helping hand, it would have been somewhere among the debris that lay high in drifts in many places below here. O. S. Board man is the next in me stream's way, and with an angry toss of its waves, thick with mud, it seemed to smile at the attempt to change its course from his lot, but with a howl almost as of a demon, 'on it went uproot ing poplars that - made the one bright spot in town and servedas a landmark miles away.' His orchard was greatly damaged, .many trees being torn from their roots and carried away. His gar den also suffered seriouB damage. Al Campbell and R. E. Misner being next below, each had a small barn, cow sheds and chicken houses among the ' de stroyed. W. H. Sassers new building is the next in the course of the' stream, and before the water went down "their back yard was almost entirely carried away and' a bank of .twelve or fifteen feet is left almost at their door. . Before the high water the channel of the stream from bank to bank must have been from 25 to 50 feet, and now the banks are from 50 to 100 feet. The entire ' school grounds are .carried away, and, as has been reported, the school house Btands on end at the bottom of the creek, but, as if satisfied with stand ing the schoolhouse on end, the channel soon changed, and now the house is high and dry on a gravel bar. - There can hardly - be an , estimate of the loss our town baa sustained by high water. green with luxurious growths and vege tation, neat orchards, or waving, bend ing poplars, afe now but an nnaiehtW waste, a barren gravel bed. Many fears are expressed that the work of destruc tion is not 'yet at an fend. Con tinual clouds hang over us and heavy rainfalls and cloudbursts are a daily oc currence. As I write the sky is heavily overcast by very threatening clouds and thunder is rumbline in the dinrnnro Three days in succession we have been visited by heavy "thunder showers, and today another in prospect. Already the ground is thoroughly water-soaked, on account of which hay and grain are not doing well. C Mr. Seigfort, the stage driver from Canyon to this place, reports several heavy rainfalla and -waterspouts near Canyon City that passed through many places with damaging effect, covering others with sand and gravel to the depth of several feet, tearing some to pieces, and carrying houses and barns WOO i Willi i!

Dufur has been confined to her bed for over two weeks bv illness. bdt.we are glad to say she is slowly con valescing. " Miss Maud Peabody has just returned from a trip to Mosier. The other day Waldo Brigh'am. Fred Frazier and Lindsey Thomas dis covered a large swarm of bees banging to a branch of a tree in Pine Hollow. Having no fear the boys decided to hive them, whereupon preparations were made and they were successfully cap tured. We will not go into details as to the methods they used, but would refer all whose curiosity overcomes them, or all bee-raisers who would like to learn a new and convenient (?) way to catch Dees, to Li. . ts. lhomas, who has gone into that business and has his own ideas about bee swarming. Mrs. Menefee, more familiarly known as "Grandma Menefee," had a bad accident Sunday. She had been to one of the neiehbors on horseback and in stepping into the saddle, lost her balance falling backwards, bdly .hurting her back and as to the extent of her Injuries we have not been able to ascertain. - The other evening . Mrs. Slusher and Anna Dufur were out for a carriage drive, when they reached about opposite trie hotel, a dog ran out, frightening the horse which went tearing at the heighth of its speed up the street.

Mrs. Slusher was also thrown on to the rocks badly bruis ing her whole side, and it was feared her arm was broken or she had received internal injuries.
