We learn from Dr. L.ogan ' that our
suspicions regarding the death of Chas.
Ross in Portland Sunday are confirmed
by railroad rum in. this city who have
received word to that effect. Ross was
ran over by tbe work train near Seufert's
recently, and taken to tbe hospital for
treatment. At last reports be was doing
well, but "tetalus" or lock jw, finally
caused his death. Roes was 32 years
old and was a man well liked among his
associates.
It is quite the rage at present among
our professional, as we 1 as amateur
photographers, to obtain a collection of
Indian pictures, and each is vieing with
the other in the attempt to secure the
best subjects. Lo has gotten over his
superstitions prejudice, being persuaded
by the offer of a few cents to pose as
gracefully as tbe white man. Tbe finest
specimen of an Indian picture we have
yet seen i that taken by Mr. Gifford
and which now occupies a place in
Clark & Falk's drug store window.
"Rain in the Face" or "Stand in tbe
Window" or whatever he may be called,
has a countenance which embraces both
kindness and bravery, and is a study in
tself. Mr. Gifford has brought out
every feature perfectly and is justly
proud of bis work.
Last evening when Earnest Halfpap,
the little boy who carries the Oregonian,
was passing the European- House, the
dog belonging to Hugh Frazier jumped
at him and bit hi in in the left thigh, not
severely, but causing an ugly little
wound.. This is bis fourth offenBe of
that kind, and while he is considered a
valuable dog on a sheep ranch, Mr.
Frezier has determined to be rid of him
for fear be may do eerious damage. A
serious case of dog bite was that of the
little brother of Mrs. Chas. Johnson,
who a short time ego in Goldendale was
bitten frightfully about tbe face by
what was considered a pet dog. His
wound9 were such as to disfigure bim
for life, and be just escaped fatal in
juries. A number of important matters were
brought up at the meeting of tbe board
of fire delegates last night. Among
other thiDgs a communication was re
ceived from Columbia hoee company
asking that their membership limit be
increased from thirty-five to fifty, and
that the new chemical engine be placed
in their charge. The matter was laid
on tbe table. At the drill about two
weeks since tbe members of the various
companies failed to give sufficient beed
to certain rules applicable to drills,
notable among which was tbe fact that
some companies left before being ordered
by the chief. A committee, consisting
of N. M. Eastwood, John Gavin and
J. F. Moore, was appointed to investi
gate the matter and determine whether
charges should be brought against them.
Members of the board being negligent
about attending meetings, it u as de tidtd

they were present at the m xt meeting
new members should be appointed.

HEALING AT OUR OWN DOORS.
The Hot Springs Along the Columbia
' Equal to Any A Jordan Near at
Home.
Perple along the Columbia have n y ix
seemed fully to realize just how much
virtue there really is in the hot springs
which line the banks of the river, and
many make long expensive trips to
famous springs in other etates when at
our very doors might be found the Jor
dan which if its waters were only tested
would accomplish the game healing pro
cess. For many years a few stragglers
have visited tbe various pprings at
Cascades,. Moffitt, Collins, and other
places, but little publicity has been
given them and few know bow much
they are missing. The Oregonian Mon
day had an article which told of how
much benefit had been derived by Mr.
Holman.of Portland, who had been in
poor health for some time aud is making
a prolonged stay at the hot springs near
the mouth of Wind river, about eight
miles above the cascades.
This is the same place where Mr. W.
H. Biggs is staying, and he is loud in
bis praises of the benefit he has ob
tained from drinking and bathing in the
waters, which are impregnated with
minerals of various kinds and which
come from the earth as hot as there is
any need of. Mr. Biggs says when he
first attempted to drink of the waters he
found it almost impossible, but now he
can drink freely and feels the effects
greatly.
As the springs can be reached by boat
in a few hours they might become a
favorite health resort; but at present
they are owned by a half-breed, who has
no means and no desire to improve the
property. They claim they cau . make
all they want to off of them in their
present condition, and therefore - no ac
commodations worthy of mention are
afforded. Parties have offered large
sums for their lease for a season at least,
but such have been steadfastly refused.
Ample room, however, could be secured
for camping purposes, and no doubt will
be utilized when the healing properties
of the springs are fully known.
Much has been said of Bingham
Springs, wbich are no doubt all that is
claimed for them ; but we fully believe
that along the banks of the Columbia
may be found a balm fully as efficient.
Indeed, we question whether the waters
at Glenwood Springs, Colo., wbich ap
pear to us to contain the same prop
erties, are more healing than would be
those right at our own doors, were the
same amount of money expended on
their improvement.
Death from an Accldenr.
This morning at 1 :30 o'clock Charles,
the 17-year-old son of Henry Stegman,
who formerly lived at Centerville; but
now resides in the Happy Home district,
died from injuries received in a runaway
accident which occurred Monday after
noon seven and a half miles- from the
river on the Washington side.
In company with the hired man Charles
had driven to thie city and delivered
some wool nt the Wasco warehouse.
un the return trip the Mrea man's
toaoi, w b'ch contained some stock
salt, was ahead and 11 Bank or two of salt
fell into the ron-l. When voung Steg
man drove up, just' in front of Win.
Crawfcr I'd pi ice, his horses became
frightened at the ealt sacks and jumped
to one side onto some large rocks, throw
mg their driver out and cutting a very
deep gash in the scalp and badly dislo
cating his left elbow. Internal Injuries
were also received, wbich eventually
caused his death. '
Tbe funeral will take place at Center
ville tomorrow.
IMPORTANT TO SHEEP OWNERS
Do Mot Hasten to Take Your
Sheep to
the Mountains.
The attention of sheepmen is called to
the following letter from 8. B. Ormsby,
wbich is of especial import to them.
He says :
First Rbeepowners are advised not
to be in haste to start their sheep for
the reservation. My advices show tbat
there is etill an immense amount of
snow in the mountains and it is not
possible for it to disappear from the
ranges before the 1st 'of July.
Second The eating .out of the range
of settlers by sheep on their way to the
mountains, is becoming a matter of
eerious import, and is being brought to
the attention of the department in a
manner that cannot be much longer
ignored. But the department has no
authority in the premises outside the
reservation, and when it does act its
action can only be "the entire exclusion
of sheep from the reservation.
Third The attention of sheep owners
is called especially to one of the exceptt d
areas which is as follows : The east
half of townships 12, 13, 14, 15, 16- and
17, S. K. 9 E. This strip of territory is
excepted for the benefit of settlers along
the line of the reserve whoee stock may
be running at large.. While sheep may
be driven across this area to reach the
range beyond, no stock of any kind will
be driven ia and herded on this excepted
area.
Fourth Sheepownere are cautioned as
to the character of the men they have in
their service the coming season. The
owner is, himself, seldom on the range,
bis interests are intrusted to others.
These should understand the terms of
the contract the employer has made with
the department and should be men who
will faithfully carry out these terms or
trouble will arise to the owner.
Fifth A large number of applications
are vet due from owners. These must
be forwarded without delay.
