The South ern Pacific, Union Pacific, Illinois Central and Now York Central roads are preparing to take across the con tinent the lurgest shipment of blooded horses ever made from San Francisco to New York. The horses are to be shipped on November 19th next from J. B. Hag gln's famous Rancho del Paso, which Is to be sold In small tracts for farm ing purposes. The shipment will re quire four trains of 12 cars each, and they arc to bo run on passenger train time. The railroads will get for this ship ment $42,500 in freight charges. In addition there will bu other expenses, which will bring the cost of sending this big shipment east up to $00,000. In the shipment there are to be about 600 horses, consisting of 503 brood mares and about 87 stallions. Among the latter are the following famous Imported ones: Watercress. Goldfinch. Golden darter, Ktur Ruby. Toddlngtnn and sr. Outlcn. With each cur there will be two men to lank after the feeding of the horses on the trip east, while with each train will he a foreman and a veterinary surgeon. The value of these animals runs well up Into tho hun dreds of thousuiids of dollars; so thut Is why tho greatest care and attention are to be given them while on their long Journey to New York. It Is Bald that the railroad people. In making a rate of about $900 a car, expressly stipulated In the shipping contract that In ease of accident resulting In the death of any of the blooded they would not be liable In damages for over $100 per head. An extra carload of the stock Is to go to Hnggln's famous Kentucky farm. He Is to keep the latter on as large a scale as ever, while seeing fit to relinquish his big stock farm out here In California. Only one more shipment, following the one of next month, will be made before the stock ranch, as such, goes out of existence. The lust shipment will take plsce next spring. It will consist of 20 carloads of colts, which will go cast to lie sold at auction In New York. Tim COTTON' SITUATION. Hal-Jug Quarantine Ki-Ioumoi Vast Quantity of Oitton. :Cew York. Oct. 21. In their review of the cotton situation Miller & Co. ay: "One of the efforts of' tho recent drop In temperature will be the release of a great deal of pent-up cotton In the Mississippi valley, where quaran tines have seriously Interfered with transportation. Quarantines cease when frosts set In, and It Is behaved that a heavy movement of cotton will begin toward New Orleans. Such a movement would take at least a week or .0 days before showing In the offi cial record of receipts and meanwhile, there may ho quite a sharp falling 'off fn the total, since private reports are almost unanimous in stating that far mera have sold little or nothing since October I, and the holdings by mer chants and others have, by this time tecn shipped out."

Of all the spectacles of tbo sens uotie Is so tragic aa the derelict, the errant of the trackless deep.. Weird lsyond description Is the picture presented by some broken and buttered hulk as she swings Into view ngalnst the sky line, with the turgid green suns sweeping over her moss grown decks and a splintered fragment of mnst pointing upward, aa If In protest ngalnHt her dadoing. It Is it sight also to arouse fenr. For the derelict Is the most potent of all the dangers that threaten the sea furer. Silent stealthy. Invisible, It Is the terror of the mariner. It Is the arch hypocrite of the deep. Against It skill of seamanship, vigilance in watch lug, avail not. Lights and whistles, beams and buoys proclaim the proxim ity of laud; the throbbing of engines, the noise of shipboard life tell of an approucblng vessel; Icebergs and floes betray themselves by their ghostly1 ra dinnce and surrounding frigidity of nlr. lint the derelict gives no wnrulng, makes no signal. The first sign of Its existence Is the crash, the sickening tremble and quaver of the ship sudden ly wounded to death. P. T. MeOrnth In McClnre'a. 1 OF UN Rose mtltnun.

One yawns, one procrasti nates, one can do It when one will, and therefore one seldom does It at all, whereas those who have a great deal of business must bnckle to It. and then they always find time enough to do It In.

"National Convention" of Hop Pick ers Is Sinno "Shy." " A weekly paper of this city pub lishes an Interview with Lancaster Spencer, the Indian, who had charge of the national (?) convention of In dluns held last week on the state fair grounds, says the Yakima 'Republic. In the Interview it Is said that Dr. 1. J. Hill, of this city, a member of the fair commission, agreed to give 11000 and furnish two beeves. 1000 loaves of bread and two wagonloads i.f watermelons to the assembly of In dians. Spencer "roasts" North Yakima for not supporting the affair. Then he declares that he was deceived and dis appointed In the money that he claims was promised and never received. Finally he blames the citizens of this tcrwn for the fact that the stores were closed on Sunday. , The affair was advertised as a na tional convention and turned out to be simply a gathering of Indians who had been picking hops in the neigh boring valley. In regard to .the money. Ir. Hill denies that he ever promised any. He kept his word In regard to what he did promise and has receipts to show that he furnish ed two beeves and KOO loaves of bread to the Indians. As far as the matter of Sunday closing goes the Indian rep resentatlve must be politely referred to Prosecuting Attorney Knits. Concerning his personal responsi bility Dr. Hill made the following statement to a Republic reporter this morning: "I never promised $1000 or any a mon nt of money to Lancaster Spen cer. er anyone else. I did say that I would see that they got two beeves and 500 loaves of bread and have the receipts to prove rt, and without them I have an Idea that my word In North Yakima is as good us that of any In dian. I have not sen the article you speak of." IPs II ' I ' -f ' ' j& ... 71 mm i wm&gMm .v mmm. i i -r j-ct m -a' rrj. --r jv j- .y Sr. m-xt :ji r & its M"UVEYIX5 THE CHANNEL. I i I , I I TP! 1 . plL LAXATIVE op Known Oualit It There arc two classes ot remedies: those of known qual-, ity and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when natureneetls assist ance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting tempc rarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remeiliesof known quality andexcellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Fins, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known ti act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to con tribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refreshandcleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming consti pation and the many ills resultingtherefrom. Its active princi ples and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the tavor of many millions or well informed persons wno Know of their own personal knowlede and from actual experience thatit is a mostexcelient laxative remedy. We do not claim that ir - .-!, , i . .j ii. i i ii.. il win cure an manner or nis.nui recommenu it lor wnai it rrany represents, a laxative remedy of know n quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers: those who are informed to the quality of what they buy and the reasonsfor the excellence articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go Isewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of anywell known rticle; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, nd who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect beneficial effects if thev do not Bet the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional tegrity and the good will of their customers too nighly to otter imitations of the Genuine Syrup of Figs i manufactured by Ihe California Fig Syrup Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co. plainly printedon the front of every package.

Fries a force of 10 United States engineers is making a survey of the upper Columbia river between the mouth of the Snake and the Port age railroad In order to ascertain the cost of Improving the channel so that It will he navigable the year round, says the Oregon Dally Journal. It will be the first complete survey that bits ever been made of thnt stretch of the Columbia. The men are now employed near Cmatllla and from that point will conduct operations down stream. It Is estimated that it will require about three months to complete the task. The data secured will be forwarded to Washington and congress will be ask ed to make an appropriation for the Improvement of the channel. A couple of hnuscDoats built for ihe purpose are being used by the en gineers ns living quarters. On an average they will not be able to cover more than one and a half miles a day. There are a number of bad rapids on which considerable work will have to be done. It Is believed, before the channel can be put In the best of con dition. In these many large boulders are lying and will be a menace to nav igation until they1 have been blasted out and removed. The engineers are I of the opinion that this line ot work! will Involve the greatest cost of open-, ing up the channel. I In its effort to secure a 40-foot channel from Portlnnd to the sea, the local board of trade will ask for the co-operation of the state granges of Oregon, Vashington and Idaho. At a meeting of the river and harbor committee of the board yesterday an otfer of assistance was received from Orange No. 27 of this county, which will be accepted. The state organiza tions will be corresponded with on the subject and It Is thought that they will agree to assist in bringing about the desired result. In the past it is said that the granges have taken a deep interest in river and harbor af fairs. The board of trade also decided to request Major S. W. Roessler to make a survey of the Columbia river bar at the earliest poslhle date, so that it may be learned definitely as to the accuracy of the recent statements of the pilots concerning the depth of the water In that locality. Surveys cannot be made thero with any accuracy un til the bar Is perfectly smooth. The Major recently declared that sound ings will be taken as soon as I weather conditions are favorable.
