More than BOO feet fall Is thus secured, and the dis tance the water has to flow Is greatly shortened. The river at this point forms a long U, and by cutting across through the mountain a great distance, Is saved. The next work will be the digging of an Immense canal from Bear river, near this city to Bear lake, wherein the floodwatcrs of the river are to be stored for summer use. . After pass ing through the power house the wa ter will be taken on down Into Utah for Irrigation purposes. The begin ning of this work marks the starting of an expenditure of more than $1, 000.000 for labor alone, all of which will, be spent largely In this valley. THE YAKIMA WOOL SITUATION. General Prospect In the Direction of Stiff Price' In reviewing the status quo and fu ture possibilities for the wool market In. the North Yakima section the Re public of that city says: The wool market Is looking up. An advance In the London market has had a tendency to bull the eastern market, and the reaction has afected the west to such an extent that the growers and buyers In the - Taklma valley have locked horns again. The result Is that the buyers have an In clination to loosen up a little and some of them are paying good prices for wool. The wool growers are feeling jubi lant over the situation. They say that wool will go higher than 25 cents per pound, and Ernest Berg declared with buoyancy that wool was worth 26 cents now. Mr. Berg Is one of the largest wool growers In the valley. He told a reporter for the Republic that he had sold 29,000 pounds of wool for 20 4 cents, and he was sorry for hav Ing closed the deal because, he felt confident that the market would ad vance. Koshland Bros., of San Fran cisco, bought Mr. Berg's wool. A number of sales were closed Sat urday. Pete Agor sold 60,000 pounds to the Portland Woolen Mills for 23 cents. James Wright sold a large consignment of wool but the terms were private. Coffin Bros, have dis poned of about 100.000 pounds to the Portland Woolen nllls, obtaining 19 cents. Much of the Coffins' wool, however, was exceedingly heavy and the price paid on tlio entire lot is said to hftvo been good. The wool buyers are loth to admit that thorp has been any material ad vance In the market. They admit that the London market has gone up 5 per cent, but this, they say, is so slight as not to affect the price In the United Slates more than one-fourth of a cent per pound. An advnnco of 15 or 20 per cent In London will cause an ad vance In the eastern markets of prob ably 1 cent, and this being the case the buyers full to see upon what grounds the wool growers are basing their claims for a big rise In the mar ket.

Decoration Day The Peoples Warehouse j SAVE YOUR COUPONS Survivor of Custer Fight. The Custer battlefield is close to the Crow agency. In a desire to know all that I could, at close range, of the tragedy of the Little Big Horn, I spent many days In going over the battle field foot by foot, from where the troops left the Rosebud to the ridge where the men had made their last stubborn fight. 'White marble slabs mark the spots where they fell. In most caso the slabs are In twos, side by side. Strange how It Is when It comes to the final end, we reach out for human companionship. There they made their last earthly stand, bunkie to bunkle. Among the dozens of Indians I questioned of the fight was Curley, who is so often called the sole survivor of the Custer fight. He has been so bullied, badgered, questioned, cross-questioned, leading questioned, and called, by mouth and in type, a coward and a liar by an endless horde of the curious and knowledge-seeking, that I doubt to day, if his life depended upon It, he could tell whether he was ever at or near the Custer fight. From "The Tribes of the Xerthwest Plains," by E. S. Curtis, In the June Scrlbner. New Era In tho Vatican, Now that the "Spanish three-men power" has been dissolved by the death of Father Martin, general of Jesuits, It Is surmised that Pope Pius may Inaugurate a more liberal era, says V dispatch from Rome. General Martin was associated with the secre tary of state. Merry del Yal, and Car dinal Vlves In the "power behind the throne.". These three mighty Span lards wielded much Influence from the time the pontiff was settled on the papnl throne, though they were care ful not to show their hand. As to the person of the new general of Jesuits opinions differ, but It Is al most certain thnt neither an Ameri can, German or a Frenchman will be chosen, since the church favors a cltl r.en of a lesser power, like Spain or Portugal. Tho late general was, on more than one occasion, called a great strategist by Pope Plus, and It is a well-known fact that he held his forces well In hand. "Victory of Sniiiollimce." The Winged Victory of Samothrace, the famous statuary, shows a figure In flowing Greek robes with wings, n very virile and beautiful figure de spite the fact that It Is headless and armless. The figure was exhumed on the Island of Snmothraee in the Ae gean sen near Greece nnd It Is thought that It formerly ornamented the prow of a Grecian ship. The figure Is one of the most beautiful of the ancient Greek statues. Registration of Wasco.

CATTLE TO TACOMA. Dig IIolo Basin Feeders Send 30 Cars to Taconia by Way or O. It. & X. to Glut Northwest Markets Portion of 12,000 Head Fed hi That Section During Past Year. Six hundred head of Montana cat tle passed through Pendleton over the O. U. & X. this morning en route to Carsten- Brothers of Tacoma. This Is a portion of 12,000 head of fat cat tle which have been sent of Big Hole Basin during the past two months and Is practically the ljist shipment to be made from that place this season. There were 30 cars In the shipment which passed through here this morn ing and the lot will average about 1, 300 pounds each. They were driven 65 miles from the feeding grounds In the basin to Red Lodge, the shipping point. Most of the cattle fed In the Big Hole asln during the past winter went to the Chicago and Omaha mar kets, about 3000 head going to Seattle and Tacoma over the Northern Pa cific. The Big Hole Basin Is a feeding dis trict strictly, there being but few cut tle raised there owing to the scarcity of runge. An abundance of excellent wild hay Is raised In the basin, which Is a high altitude, and most of the farmers buy cattle in the outside dis tricts, for feeding purposes. SAI.OOXS CUSKD DISORDER. Sun Francisco lna IJecn a Model of Decency AVItli Closed Saloons. Immediately after the earthquake and fire nt San Francisco the mayor ordered all saloons closed. The San Frnnclsco Chronicle thus commented on the results a few days ago: "Snn Francisco for the past fort night has been absolutely free from disorder and virtually free from crimes nf violence. No drunken brute has beaten his wife. No gamblers have murdered each other In low re sorts. Rxcept for some dealings with sneak thieves the occupation of the police court is gone. It Is a most impressive object les son of the value to society of the re striction of the liquor traffic. Vye are promised a continuance of this peace ful condition for a considerable time to come, save only as drunken men drift over from Oakland, where the authorities have been so reckless as to allow saloons to open. We may be compelled to renew the quarantine against Oakland. "This absolute demonstration that the suloons are responsible for all crimes of violence makes It imperative that, whenever they shall be allowed to reopen in this city, their license fees bo fixed at a rate 'which will support lse Skirting's regular 4 ? per yard At-w Black Cotton Hose at 5c 15c 25c WHERE IT PAYS TO TRADE the police department There must be Increased taxation. The publlo generally will protest against being; taxed for the control or suppression of those forms of crime for which the saloons are now proved to be so'j responsible. The public will look to the board of supervisors to place the cost of dealing with crimes of violence on the occupation which Is responsi ble for all of it." . At Svenson, bear Astoria, a boy named Becker struck at a large snake With an ax, as the reptile was crawl ing close to the feet of his 3-year-old sister. He missed the snnke and split one of the little girl's feet open. The child was immediately attended and It It hoped 'will recover. Found, at Fergy's, Kaiser's dog.
