core for consumption, and those who
read it will hope that it proves more
effectual than has many alleged cures for
this dread disease. He feeds consump
tives on prepared air, which has permeat
ing it a medicated soothing vapor. In
the middle of January it was given to
twenty-six consumptives. Now ten are
entirely cured, nine almost well, five
much improved, and two dead. He is
receiving much popular support from
wealthy persons.
Monday The Chronicle printed a long
article regarding an exciting race .which
is now on between a Portland company,
known as the Wapinitia Valley Irriga
tion Company, and a Dalles company,
known as the Juniper Flat Irrigation
Company, in reference to water rights
in Clear Lake region, each company
hfiying sent representatives to the loca
tion in the endeavor to secure Baid
right. On Monday H. R. Blue, repre
senting: The Dalles company, reached
the place nnder dispute and posted his
notice of location at 5:15 a. m., while
Gaston, representing the Portland com
pany, arrived on the scene at 10 o'clock.
Yesterday at 4:30 the Juniper Flat
Company filed in the clerk's office three
notices of location of water rights,' and
today at 11 :30 the Wapinitia Valley Ir
rigation Company filed its notice. There
no doubt will be a spirited contest re
garding the case during the next term
of court.
Last night Eixty men of company B
(colored) from Vancouver passed through
on the 5 :30 train, bound for Wardner,
and the strikers may well quake in their
boots when they see these invincibles
who made the famous charge at San
Juan make their appearance, for they
mean business.. As the train etopped
at the Umatilla house, and the order
was given to bring forward their buckets
and load up with coffee, they proved
that although they were "fast black"
they would run, and soon they, returned
with the steaming beverage for their
hungry companions. It was amusing
to spectators to see one big fellow run
fro-r one car to the other with a large
pan of canned beef, and all began to
question whether or not it was "em
balmed." The detachment was short
a man, for as the train turned a curve
just as they were pulling out of Port
land the fellow was jolted from the car
step, where he sat, and cut his head.
The train stopped, but imagining he
was left, he bad received assistance and
scrambled up the bank and was on h:i
way back. He will probably join them
later.
A New feature In Journalism.
Portland has a venture in jonrnaliem
which many of its residents are not
aware of, but The Chronicle reporter
today had the privilege of perusing a
copy of the "Nob Hill Spy," published
every Saturday by Peters & Williams at
5 cents a month or 50 cents a year.
Surely the residents of Nob Hill need
not be without the news. One of its
editors is Bob Williams, whom bis boy
friends were not aware had taken to
journalistic work.
The Spy is about 2x5 inches in di
mensions and has three whole pages de
voted to advertisements. The boys have
their own material and possessing a nice
little press, need no better outfit. Its
importance In newepaperdom is fully
attested by the following editorial, which
must have caused the Oregonian much
chagrin: "We have no time to argue
with the Oregonian, it must take care of
itself." Another editorial says: "This
paper is read over every week by hun
dreds of people. It doesn't cost much."
Like all other newspapers it takes note
of the accidents and has the following :
"A very narrow escape occurred on the
corner of Fourteenth and Everett streets
Tuesday afternoon. While the men
were fixing the telephone wires one of
the men dropped a hatchet lighting
within a few inches of a 'pass-byer.' "
Truely the newspaper field is widen
ing and the liberty of the press is not
restricted to old or young.

WHAT THE COUNCIL DID.
Sooth Side Hose Company's Application
Accepted Bicycles Mast Keep
off of the Sidewalks
On account of a meeting of the Hock
and Ladder Company being held in the
council chambeie. the councilmen met
at the reorders office, last night, where
Mayor Nolan. presided, with Councilmen
Keller, Clough, Johns, Stephens, Gun
ning, Michelbach Kuck, and Johnston
present.
After the minutes of the two previous
meetings recnlar and special had
ben read and approved, the application
of the South Side Hose Company, No. 6,
was read, as was also their recommen
dation from the lire delegates, and on
motion of Clough the company was ad
mitted as a permanent organization;
Kuck then moved that they be furniehed
with the small cart now in the engine
house and a; so 300 feet of hose. The
new company will at once proceed to
circulate a subscription among the resi
dents of their section of the bluff and
will build a hose house on the lot ad
joining John Cates' property.
The question of bicycle riding on the
sidewalks of our city was then dis
cussed, and the marshal instructed to
enforce the ordinance ngaioet it. '
The committee on streets and public
property reported that the various stand
ing pipes used for filling the street
sprinkler are leaking and causing
puddles of water on the etreets, which
prove to be a nuisance.
A petition was read from C.L. Phillips,
who claims he has paid the balance due
on the city lots formerly purchased by
him, asking that he be given deeds to
the same, which are lots 7, 8 and 9, in
block 21, of Gates Addition : The mat
ter was referred to the judiciary com
mittee. "
An ordinance which was introduced
by Johns providing for the transfer of
$1000 from the general fund to the sink
ing fund was passed. With this trans
fer $6000 has been so disposed of during
the past year to be set apart for the
future payment of the city debts.
Reports from the recorder, marshal
and treasurer were rad and placed on
file, the report of the latter being sub
stantially as follows :
