I AMONG THE EXCHANGES THREE MAGAZINES FREE OF THE INLAND EMPIRE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY. New Boats for Vpper River. Report reached the city Monday that the steamboat recently purchased by Van Arsdale and associates at Bandpolnt to be placed in service on the upper Snake river would reach here today from Rlparla, says the Lewiston Tribune. It appears that the boat was shipped from Sandpolnt to Rlparla and Mr. Van Arsdale has employed an experienced steamboat man to bring the craft here. Mr. Van Arsdale is the owner of the little steamer Wilhelmlna. which he built here several months ago. The power equipment of the craft was In adequate and he has arranged to In stall larger engines. He plans also to add a third boat and has organised a company to handle the fleet of steamers. There have been repeated rumors that Mr. Van Arsdale is associated irlth one of the large railroad com panies, but he states he Is operating independently. Report in circulation Monday was to the effect that his company is receiving encouragement from owners of cement and coal prop erties in the Snake river section. out on the government road after dark, the car swung fearlessly over the hill and valley without lights, the fair driver expressing her confidence that there were no rocks left In Uncle Sam's road.

J. Splawn, and with that Intent Mr. Carter went out to the Splawn ranch In the Cowiche this morning to confer with the rancher! and possibly make arrangements for a shipment of stock to the islands, says the Takima Republic. Mr. Carter, ho 1 a cousin of Gov ernor Geo. 0.

Snark was brought to his city from Grants Pass Monday with the mare that kicked him and which is owned by Al Teal of that city. Both nags had been together for the past six months, and were to have been raced at the district fair at Marshfleld next week, ' Snark was owned by Jacob Pry of Grants Pass, j Horses Died from Thirst. W. J. L. Anderson met with an un- pleasant surprise when he went out to his ranch a few days ago, says a Medford item. He left four head of horses in a field on the ranch when he left there, four weeks ago, and at that time there was ample water run ning in a creek in the field, but when he returned this week he found the creek dry and three of the four horses dead from thirst.
