curious storv of a Mr. Hainelin who
went orchid' hunting In Madagascar
some three or four years since. Ho had j
secured the services of a guide from one ,
of the native villages, but tho latter had
the misfortune to bo killed and eaten by j
n linn. Somehow or other the chlet ot
the village got the notion into iiia head
that Hamelin had eaten the guide him-
self, and then blamed it on a lion. Ham- j
elin protested, but the chief gave him i
the alternative of marrying the guiuo a
widow or be burned alive. Hamelin
chose tho widow, hut managed to have
incorporated in tho contract an article
which gave hini a virtual monopoly on
all the orchids In tho country.

The river this morning is 40.7, a rise
of .1 in the nast twentv-frmr hours. Tim
ruiiruuu irauic; out imn
win put the river at the danger line.
Wo do not think it will go much above
that, if any, though phenomenally hot
weather might give it a spurt above
that. The Snake has been up to 10 feet,
I lell again to below 14, aud is now up to
I about 18. Its flood is largely spent, and
in a few days it must show a steady and
I rapid fall. This will counterbalance tho
j Columbia's rise, and prevent extra high
water. However, according to Mr.
Pague'8 estimates, putting tho stage at
26 feet in Portland, it will approach the
50-foot mark here. Wo believe that he
has over-estimated the rise considerably.

There is said to be no doubt at all that
his removal was duo to his views on the
money question. He taught in the class
room political economy, and, as every
one knows, when ho has views on any
subject, he expresses them freely, and
must have done so on the money ques
tion, in a way that was very unsatis-
I tactory to the Populist governor. Prof.
' Gatch has many friends all over Oregon,
