Fee, Dr. Christie, Jack Grant, Peter Nelson and others returned Thursday afternoon from a tour of rounding up horses In the hot toms of the Columbia river. They re port that whllo riding over the sage brush plains, three miles from Cold Springs station, and about seven miles from Umatilla .they found the grewsome remains of a man, and the fact was reported to Coroner Cole, who thought there was no occasion for his visiting the place, and the bones were burled where found.. The man had apparently been dead for several months and nothing remained but the bleached bones, the coyotes and birds of prey having picked all the flesh from them. There was noth ing to identify the man, and it is a mystery as to whom he was or how he met his fate. The only mark about the head or skull was that ojie front tooth was filled with gold and one of the upper jaw teeth was miss ing.

The would-be bad men returned the fire and Clove was shot in the knee. He thought he hit one of the assailants, but was not sure, and the supposition is that the bones found are the remains of one of the men, who went into the sage brush to die of his wounds. utes later, being 9:05, Instead of D.

The French bark Lees Adelphcs, 102 days from Madagascar for Port land, put In at Port Angeles with tho ontlro crow down with scurvy and nearly starved. So Says J. B. Wilson, of Walla Walla, Just Back From Portland. "Portland people believe that the eastern Oregon man has a chance for the nomination on the republican ticket for governor of Oregon. There are many who say he stands as well as Geer in the fight and that Furnish has an even show to win out." This statement was made yester day by J. B. Wilson of this city, who returned from a busines strip to Port land and who looked casually into the political situation of that state while in a position to do so. Certain of the support of eastern Oregon and with the people of Portland lukewarm, Mr. Wilson believes that Mr. Furnish stands well in his race for a nomi nation that will mean victory if se cured.

There is mud and then more mud in Portland and it is doubt less worse outside of the cnty, though I did not go out to see." Railroad Extension.
