THEY WERE ON THE ROOF.
Small Hoys Hiivo a Gooil Time, anil
1'ame Oil' the Hoof Suddenly.
Boys will be boys, and in their efforts
to find some new and exciting 'amuse
ment, each generation outdoes the one
before it, simply because the oppor
tunities grow steadily larger. But there
are some things that never crow old, and
that generation after generation of boys
all amuse themselves at. One of these
is the cat-like desire to climb.
Yesterday evening NigHtwatchman
Wiley discovered half u dozen or more
boys on the roofs of the houses between
Washington Btreot anjt the Umatilla.
He called upon them to come down, but
they had not finished their fun, and re
fused. Wiley made a vigoroue'search to
find how the youngsters got up, but
failed. Finally he climbed up a pole
and gave the kids chase an'd then they
came down with a rur. They fled across
the roofs until they struck the arch
across the street at tfie D. P. & A. N.
office. Over the top of this they scamp
ered as sure footed as a lot of goat?-, and
dropped out of sight. In a moment
they came boiling out of the foot of one
of the columns ot the arch, like a lot of
mice from a nest. They hadydiscovered
a hole in the canvas, crawlnl insido of
the frame on which the canvas was
nailed, climbed up inside of it, and so
reached the roof. It was a comical
sight to see them disappear at the end
of the arch and come scampering out at
tho bottom like frightened rats.
By the time Wiley reached their run
way the kids were at home eating supper
and happy in the knowledge that they
had done something new.
To Cancel 1'atentx on Swamp Lands,
Some time since, United StatoB Attor
ney Murpjiy received telegraphic in
structions to bring a number of suits
on behalf of the government, in the
United States .court, to secure the can
cellation of patents to various tracts of
swamp and other lands, on the ground
that the patents had been Improperly
granted. The suits were filed on the
lust day possible for this to be done, and
the defendants were ae follows: O. &
C. R. R. Co., four cases; Coos Bay
Wagon Road Company, and the South-
j em Oregon Company, one case: Dalles
Millitary Wagon Road Company, two
cases; Coos Bay Wagon Road Company,
and TtiomasE vans, ono case ; Coos Bay
Wagon Road Co. and 50 othcra, 1 caBe;
Oregon Central Military Wagon Road
Company. In one ease, the State of
Oregon and George M. Small, defendant
yesterday demurred to the complaint,
tho principal ground of demurrer being
that the secretary of tho interior having
decided that the land iu controversy is
within tbe calls of the swamp-land
grant, such abjudication is conclusive
upon the courts. Judge Bellinger, after
hearing the argument, sustained the
demurrer, holding that the secretary's
decision was final, and that the
department of the interior constituted a
special tribunal of its own, and that its
holding in the matter was not to be

is alleged the decision of tho secretary
might not bo final. It is probable that
the other cases will be demurred to with
tho same result.
