Tin: .m:w
E. V. Smalley, in the Century ot February
says : Practically, the whole country between
the Minnesota prairies and the Rocky mount
ains is bare of timber. There aie littlo strips
of forest trees along tho water eourics in Da
kota, but they consist mainly of cottonwood,
soit maple and alder, and furnish only a
tcjnty supply of fuel to the settlers and of no
value as a source of building material. West
of the Missouri there is nothing worth sawing
into lumber until the advanced spu.-s of the
rockies are reached the Rig Horn, the Belt
tho Judith, the Big Suowy and the Yellow'
stone mountains. In the gorges running up
their sides there is sullicicnt "bull ninn'",!
spruce for the settlers' purposes, and for rail-
way ties anu nridgo timbers, but there are
no large well timb red areas. On both sides
of the main divide of the Rockies about the
samo condition is found. The pines are some
what larger, and some cedar ' met with,
ror want of eonuthing better, the timber is
of great value for local consumption, for fuel
u'i uimuing purposes in the neighboring val-
be said of it.
good rain is greatly desired and needed. The
excessive warm weather will do much damago
if it don't soon change.

to tho narrow valleys running up inte tin
Cascide range, the country is nearly destitute
of forest growth. A few Btunted pines grow
un mo much oi me deep narrow valleys
through which tho steamers run. AI. ng the
lower cotnse of tho Columbia and around
Puget Sound thero aro immense forests of fir,
furnishing a practically iuexhaustihln lumber
supply. Eastern Washington, fast becoming
a great wheat field, feels moit the lack of for.
ests. Eastern Oregon is almost treeless, but
;io ui win iiiuuuittiii ranges near sufficient
limber for local uses. Western Oregon, in
liding the fertile, wcll-settled Willamette
vaney, is well supplied from both the coast
and the Cascade mountains, while Western
Washington is nil a vast forest, where the
clearings are mere specks upon the immense
oxpanso of woodland. This magnificent for
est is destined to be a source of great wealth
for centuries to come. The lumbering opera
tions up to this time, although very exten
sive, have only notched it hero and there at
long intervals close to the water side.
Acciiient.1I. Poisoning, Ou Sunday even,
ing Mrs. Wilcox, au old lady living near tho
race track, sas a Walla Walla paper, acci
dentally took a heavy doe of sulphate of
morphia. It appears that Mrs. Wilcox, who
is ."(J years old. ha 1 been in the habit of tak
ing cincbonia for chills, from which she has
been suffering lor some time past. Ou Sun
day cvtnuiB, running out of the drug, she
went to Joseph Wcodworth's p'ace to get
an ther tupply, and by mistake she took an
eighth ounce bottle of morphino which Mr.
ojdworth had recently purchased to doctor
Ins horses with. Tho lady returned to her
home and took, as she supposed, her usu d
dose, but which proved to be from s tr in
grains of morphine. The drug had already
commenced its deadly work when Mr. Wood
worth was dispatched after Dr. Boyd, who
hastened to the relief of the tinfiirtnnnfn
woman. Lnilur the doctor's care the lady
was kept awak during Sunday night and
Monday, and at last accounts was in a fair
way of recovery.

Died of His Woi'.nds. Last night the
man William Catching, who was run over by
the cars at the Case ides, died at St. Vincent
hospital. His injuries were greater than at
first supposed, and the leg was badly man
gled. The best of medical aid w.a in Und.
ance at the hospital, but the wounded man
was beyond human help. His parents live on
L.ewi3 river, a no engineer in charge of the
train, when the man was run over, did all in
his power to avert the accident, but Catching
had stepped from the brush only a short dis
tance ahead of the cars and did not seem to
hear the alarm, or mako any effort to save
nimself, and the train could not be stopped
in time. The deceased was almost deaf, and
was not considered in his right mind at
times.

The beautiful weather continues, and be
gins now on its third week. Commcuciug
about tho 18th of February, it has become as
mildas May. Tho days aro perfect. Farmers
uako excellent uso of this fiuo weather to put
in their wheat. Nine-tenths of tbo fall wheat
u dead. hat was apparently alive, it is
daimod, Inn been often killed by the warm
days that canui aftor the cold snap. Tho gcu
ial explanation of the loss of wheat is, that
tho ground was thrown up and broke the tap
soot, which caused the death of the p'ant.
Many old settlers recall tho faot that 'J7 years

all killed by such a winter and had to bo re

of about 400 people headed by a lodge of 90
Freemason's, marched to the steamer Hassaln
with the remains, which wero covered with
an American flag and flowers. The dav w
not cloudless though calm and pleasant. A
thick covering of murky clouds hid the sun
as thoug'i the heaven had clothed itself in
mourning for the occasion. At half paat 12
