HE GOT THE SENSATION.

Last night our genial young friend
llarrv Lonsdale, went down to the tlsh
wheel in winch he lias an interest, it ,
being the new wheel built this spring j
about a mile and a half below town, j
with the intention of remaining over '
night and getting tho "sensation." Tlie j
cabin is built on top of tlie pieis, and as i
die mighty current surges by, the whole j
framework trembles with its force. It
is not an ideal place for a night's lodg-1
ing, but Harry was after the sensation, j
and ho got it.
About 2 o'clock this morning a big log
came down and struck the gins with a
crash. There is a difference of opinion
as to what Harry said, but in just three
Beconds he had leaped off the cribs onto
tlie rocks, and was on his way to The
Dalles, dressed in the consciousness tiiai
lie was doing the correct thing, and not
much of anything else. Mr. Stone was
not much behind him, and by calling
persuaded him to stop. "Where are
you going," said Stone. "I'm going
home," was the reply. "But you havn't
your clothes," continued Stone. "I
have otiier clothes at home ; I don't like
that suit, anyway." i:ame the response
from the darkness. However, Stone
went back and got theolothes, and when
he got dressed Harry went lm.sk, llko a
little man, and assisted in repairing
damages.
He is not looking for any more sensa
tions, and is content to bleep in his
little bed, farther from tho Columbia's
mighty rush than life on a flfeh wheel
permits.
