DROWNING OF CHARLES W. POPE.
Mr. Charles W. Popo, of Oregon CHv, was
dra'vned Wednesday afternoon, March 'JSth,
in tho Clnckamss river about twelvo miles
from its mouth. Tho partlcuhusof thlsmel
uuoholy atTrtir nro snustnullally ns follows:
Weduesdav morning proving vory bright
and beautiful, Mr. rope, Louis Barlu nnd
Oeorgo Harcllug concluilod that they would
spend tho day In trout nogllng. According
ly a Bklff was obtained, aud tho trio, nrmed
with tho necessary tackle, started up tho
stream. Lntu heavy rains had swollen tho
Clackamas to a higb stage, and tho current
proved swift and strong, Tho party rowed a
considerable distance up tho strenm, stop
ping at Intorvals to ilsh. At length ouo of
the party proposed to proceod to a certain
point whero it was thought bettor success
would reward their labor. This was agreod
to, and tiro party startod atouce. In passing
nround a bend in tho stream, tho current
caught tho skill', and boforo it could bo con
trolled, was thrown nglnst a sharp sng.
So powerful was tho blow that tho frail
oratt was broken in several places, and nn
Instant later tho three men woro struggling
in tho water. They caught hold of a limb
nrolnctlnir from tho water, but the curront
was vory strong aud tho water as cold as lco.
lteallr.lng tholr Imminent peril, tho men
shoutod for assistance, but tholr voices woro
drowned by tho rushing, roaring water.
They know that It would bo Impoaslblo to
hold on long to tho lltcb, as chillnoss and
exhaustion would soon ovorpower them. It
was proposod to dlvoat thomsolvos of tholr
boots nnd coats, and attempt to reach the
shore by swimming. This wns done, and
tho three men committed tuomsolvos to tho
inoroy of tbo waters. All threo wero expert
HWJinmors, Jji'spuo inoir euoris, tuo bwiii
ly flowing current boro thorn a long way
down tho stream. At length Darin and
Harding maunged to reach tho bank, al
though in u Mate of complete oxhanstion.
Mr. rope, after n lnng anil desporato battlo
for his life, was forced to succumb. Ho was
carrlod down aud roso uo moro. As soon as
posslblo, the Binvivors procureil grappling
hooks and ropos nnd began to drag the bod
of tho stream. Ktforts wero contluuod yos
terday by a largo uurabor nf persons, but
tho body of the unfortunate man had not
been rocoyorod nt tho latest accounts.
Mr. I'opo was agod about IU years. Ho
has resldod for many years in Oregon City,
whoro ho had acquired nonMdorablo wealth.
For a numbur of years Mr. I'opo was engau
oil In tlm steambonllng business on tho Up

nnd uulvorsally rospoctod citizen; of a gon

lattor is ns wiuo as tuo tanner. Aiauy nro too

nows of his untimely death spreads through

and that tho Legislature so constituted shall,
under tho Constitution and laws of Louisi

havo n nominal Kopubllcan majority on

nlno would bo conservative Republicans
nnd would hold tho balanco of powor. If
tho two partlos deolluo to reorganize tho

tho head of tho bed it foot higher than
tho foot, and then to sleep ou n toler
ably thick hair pillow, so as to bring
the head a llttlo higher than tho shoul
ders. Tito object of this Is to make tho
work of tho heart in throwing blood to
tho brain harder, so It will not throw
so much. A level bed, with tho head
almost us low us tho feet, causes nn
easy How of blood to tho brain, anil
sometimes wakefulness, when tho ves
sels cannot contract on it and keep tho
brain empty.

A very hard or vory nol'l lied Is not tho

tho bedding should bo porotH, so as to

tight beds nro bad. So, too, tho room
.should ho largo and airy, and tho foot
kept warm, aud persons with a sensi

as possible. Heavy clothlngsoiuetlmes
keeps tho sensory nerves of tho slchr

sensory currents that keep this organ
active.
