executive Commit ten .Meets mid A r
rnhKeft for the Contest.
The executive committee of the Vol
unteer Firemen's Association lias 'met
and arranged the races for the coining
tournament, which takes place here in
September. Those attending the meet
ing were Geo. F. Sears, Portland, presi
dent; R. B. Sinnott, The Dalles, secre
tary; F. S. Conroy, Astoria; W. II.
Bloss, Vancouver ; and C. Eliska, Port
land. Many letters were received from
both Eastern Oregon and Willamette
valley points asking that their depart
ments be admitted to membership in
the association. The rules were changed,
but not materially. The hub-and-hub
race was reduced from S00 to GOO feet,
and the championship race from GOO to
400 feet. The other races arranged for
are as follows :
Wettest, run GOO feet to hydrant and
lay 300 feet of hose, and getting water
through pipe, first urize, $100; second
prize, $50.
Hub-and-hub race, hose contests to
run GOO feet from line to line, two or
more companies to enter; first prize,
$75 ; second prize, .25.
Dry test, run GOO feet to hydrant, at
tach and lay 300 feet of hose; first prize,
$100; second prize, $50.
Association championship race, run
400 feet to hydrant, lay 350 feet of hose,
getting wator through pipe, take out
second fcection from pipe, take section
from cart and get water; first prize,
$100, and championship silver cup val
ued at $100; second prize, $50.
Aztec Mut-iiM'i Jit nt Coluinliuu.
An Aztec manuscript, the fifth found,
and the only one remaining in America,
was unearthed in digging for water
works at Fairfield, la., last September,
and is now in the museum of the Ohio
Btato university at Columbus. The
name of the workman who found it, J.
T. Griffith, should be remembered, for
not one laborer in thousands would have
known that he had found anything but
a lot of wood and birch bark. Mr.
Griffith's pick broke open a case of
wood, coated with pitch, within which
was contained a roll of hieroglyphics.
He carefully saved it ; it came to the at
tention of Miss Emma Clarke, who de
scribed the find to Professor Mooiehead,
curator of the remarkable archeological
collection of the Ohio university, and in
that collection it now reposes. The case
was of hickorv, charred on the inside
and pitched on the outside, and was
evidently faeiiioned by a stone ax. The
bark is extremely thin, and the inscrip
tion In red pigment, fresh and distinct.
There is no sort of doubt that this is an
Aztec manuscript, for it is of the same
description in every respect with the
others which now He in European mu
seums, unread, because no one has yet
been able to decipher the Aztec hiero
glyphics. How an Aztec manuscript
came to be deposited in Iowa, where the
civilization of that people never pene
trated, is an unanswerable question,

take this manner of exprassing their love
and gratitude to all of the many dear
friends whose earneet devotion in every
possible way did so much during tho
sickness and departure of our dear Jen

and at last for covering her over with
such beautiful flowers. Our prayer will
ever be that you all may be long shielded
from such great sorrow as is ours, and
that your loving ministrations may teach
us all the fullest meaning of those beau

The Family,
Who llltl the Head Iteloiii; to?
While a church is not the moEt re
markable place in tho world to find
mysteries in, there is rather an unusual
one in tho Church of the iloly Trinity,
London. The mystery in this church is in
the form of a human head preset ved in
a glass cafec, which has rested under the
pulpit for nobody knows how many
years. The Kev. Samuel Kinne, one of
the ministers in charge issued a mono
graph to prove that the head was that
of the Duke of Suffolk, lather of Lady
Jane Grey, who was beheaded in 1554,
or shortly after his daughter had met
with the same fate. It is believed, how
ever, that the real identity of the head
will never be known beyond question.
For Sheepmen.
Messrs. Huntington & Wilson re
ceived a letter from Congressman Ellis
this morning from which we quote the
following :
I now feel well satisfied that tho law
will be so changed und the order so mod
ified that there will be no difficulty
about the sheepmen using the present
Cascade reserve for the purpose of pas
turage. Secretary Bliss is very desirous
that this shah be done. An order has
been prepared having this in view and
the attorney-general has been requested
to begin no further prosecutions against
alleged trespassers. I am fully satisfied
that tho stockmen will be permitted to
use the reservation under tho most
liberal rules und regulations.
