II . W. Furlong, one of the party from
tho Iterkeley university who ure fitting
out here for a search for fossils in the
John Day country, was violently thrown
from a horse this morning in the Payette
feed yard in the East End, receiving
such a shaking up as required the ser
vices of a physician. Mr. Furlong had
mounted the animal with a view of tent
ing his qualities as a saddle horde. The
beast hud been well-broken to the
wagon and was supposed to be perfectly
gentle, but he resented the middle and
bucked and bawled like an Indian
cayiiHO. Mr. Furlong's injuries are not
thought to he tucli as will detain the
party after they are fitted out for the

The Salem chamber of commerce,
through its secretary, H. U. Thielsen,
has written the Portland chamber of
commerce that the former body will
heartily co-operate wrth the latter in
their eil'ort to obtain government aid
for the building of a portage railroad
around the dalles and Celilo falls.
Speaking of the attitude of the Salem
chamber of commerce'towards this woik,
Mr. Thielsen says :
"Tliey are tho more inclined to assist
in thiB case, as they know from actual
experience what a serious injury is
wrought upon commerce wtiere obstruc
tions pi event otherwise navigable
streams from being a controlling factor
in the establishment of freight rates.
"In the very able teport of your com
mittee, every argument looking to the
opening of t he Columbia is equally ap
plicable to the opening of tho Willamette
by government acquisition of the canal
and locks at Oregon City, or as an alter
native the construction of new ones, as
recommended in a recent report of a
board of government engineers appoint
ed to examine into that question.

among rocks and trees and brush wood,
leaving tho mountain side a species of
quagmire. A ditch will conserve the
water as well as purify it. The work
is expected to occupy the four men
about a month. After this work' lias

is much needed improvement and will

The following is a verbatim report of
a speech in giving the toast of "Tlie
Queen," at a recent agricultural show
dinner in Scotland. The chairman be
gan :
"Noo. gentlemen, will ye a' fill your
glatses, for I'm about to bring torlh
'The Queen,' (Applause.) Oor queen,
gentlemen, is really a wonderfu' woman,
if I may say it; she's ane o' the guid
auld sort. Nae Whigmaleeries or fal
derals about her, but a douce, daecerit
body. She's respectable beyond a' doot.
She has brocht up a grand family o'
weel-faured lads and lasses her auldest
son being a credit to ony mitlier and
they're a' weel married. Ae daughter
is nae less than married to tlie Duke o'
Argyll's son and heir. (Cheers.) Gen
tl"men, ye'll may be no' believe it, but
I ance saw the queen. (Sensation.) I
did. It was when I took my auld broon
coo to Perth show. I remember her
weel such color, such hair. (Interrup
tion, and cries of "Is it the coo or the
queen ye're proposing.")
"Tlie queen, gentlemen. I beg your
pardon, but I was talking about the coo.
Ilpwever, as to the queen, somebody
pointed her oot to me at Perth station,
and there she was, smart and tidy-like;
and says I to rnyse!' 'Gin my auld
woman at hiime slips awa,' ye needna
remain a widower anither hour lunger.'
(Cheers.) Noo, gentlemen, the whisky's
good, the night is lang, the weather is
wet, and the roads are saft, and will
harm naebody that comes to grief. So
aff'wp yer drink to the bottom ! 'The
Queen!'" (Cheers.)
