The history of the Cayuse Indians
and the work of Marcus Whitman
among them plays an important part
Bancroft's history of Oregon, and
in describing the Whitman mission at
Walllatpu. Bancroft says:
The mission at Walllatpu consisted
of an adobe a story and a half high.
60 feet In length by 18 feet in width.
with library and bedroom at one end,
sitting room in the center and an In
dian lounging room at the other end
of the main building. The kitchen,
school room and bedrooms were in
another wing at right angles to the
main building.
A second house called the "man
sion," stood a little distance from the
first and was 30x40 feet In size on the
ground and also a story and a half
high. Near these was the blacksmith
shop and within 400 feet of the dwel
ling stood the smnll grist mill, used
n making the first flour ever ground
In the Walla Walla district.
On one side of this group of build
ings were the Walla Walla river and
the mill pond; on the opposite side a
ditch -for discharging the waste water
from the grist mill and for irrigation
purposes.
Willow, birch and alder lined th
banks of the stream. A 'meadow lay
in front, stretching to the west; apple
trees were growing In sight of tin
house and flowers In the small en
closure In front, and a general air of
thrift and comfort prevailed.
In 1839 the stock at Walllatpu con
sisted or a yoke or oxen, two cows, an
American bull and a few hogs. In
1841, according to Wilkes, a consid
erahle herd had come- by descent,
Sbeep had been obtained from the
Sandwich islands and hogs had great
ly multiplied.
There was a sawmill belonging to
the mission, 20 miles up Mill creek
having a capacity of about 3000 feet
of lumber per day, together with
home for the mill men.
it was rirst thought that the sol
of the Walla Walla valley was not
fertile, but Wilkes found wheat stand
Ing seven and corn nine feet high In
the fields at Walllatpu, while the gar
den war filled with fine garden true
and melons.
There was less cultivation by th
Cayusfs than by the Nez Perces, yet
they broueht into use many smal
patches of ground, some of them a
Walllatpu, but more of them on th
I'matllla river, where from 20 to 4
miles distant lived some of tho most
Influential chiefs.
Less grain was raised at Walilatp
than at Lapwai, partly because of th
manifold cares of the superintends
and partly owing to the haughty an
intractable disposition of the Cayusos,
fewer of them could be employed
farm laborers.
Whitman's manner of teaching was
similar to the method employed
Lapwai. On Saturday evenings h
usually Invited one of the most Intel
llgent Indians into his study an
tranidated to him the text to be use
on thf morrow, explaining carefully
Its meaning until the pupil could ex
plain It In turn, and assist In Inter
preting and teaching on Sunday.
Mrs. Whitman taught reading an
sinking In the day school through the
week and relieved her husband of the
elementary part of his labor.
San Francisco Disaster Demmnllies
All Const Business.
The San Francisco disaster has par-
lyxcd the summer tourist business, to
the coast, says the Seattlo Star. This
morning the Canadlun Pacific railroad
celved word that five Mystic Shrlner
parties out of 12 canceled all trips and
Is supposed that the others will also
give up their western pleasure tours.
ho Mystic Shiiners were to hold the
nnual conclave In Los Angeles from
May 8 to 15, nnd many parties were
anxious for the Alaskan tour.
At least 75 per cent of the Shiiners
ere Including Seattlo trips In their
plans and now this has been knocked
n the head.
Word was received In the city from
W. Raymond & Whltcomb Tourist
agency, that many of their tours
ould be cancelled as easterners were
of the opinion that they would come
In contact with earthquakes and tidal
waves.
The steamship companies operating
o Skagwny are at present In the air
regarding their tourist business, but
believe that the San Francisco affair
will blow over and business will be
tter than Indicated.

LUMBER FOR SAN FRANCISCO.
Portland .Mills Can Supply Entire Cit
In 2-10 Days' Run.
Portland mills, with their combine
capacity of nearly 2,500,000 feet
mmoer every n nours, will saw
enough lumber In 240 days to rebull
the burned district of San Francisco,
embracing a tract that Is 27 mile;
around, says the Oregon Dally Jour
nal. While the necessary lumber ca
be gotten out In Portland alone
eight months. It will reoulre 20 years
to complete tho rebuilding of th
wrecked city.
It Is said that the lumber mill;
Portland saw out each day the equiv
alent of 125 houses averaging elgh
rooms complete, or course a vast
part of this output Is not turned out
of the mills as building lumber. Much
of It Is structural timber and stu
that does not go Into house bulldln
But If the lumber were required, th
mills in Portland could furnish
enough In eight months to rebuild
residence district that contains 250
000 inhabitants before the disaster In
San Francisco.
xmrne i-kiiihs illustrate tne enor
mous rate at which the timber trlbu
tary to Portland Is being consumed,
Tt Is going out by train loads and ship
cargoes In quantities sufficient
build a new city nearly twice Port
land s size every eight months.
A movement Is on foot to retire o
half pay Spokane's policemen after 20

sioners after retirement would be
from 11 to 22 years.
