SPOKANE TRAIN
STUCK IN DRIFTS
NO. 8 HELD UP FOR
EIGHT nOURS YESTERDAY
Snowbound, east of Weston Passen
gers Have Long Wait Those on No.
, 7 Subjected to Great Discomfort.
Stuck in a snow drift for eight
hours was the unusual experience of
O. R. 4 N. train No. 8, which left
Pendleton yesterday noon, bound for
Spokane. One mile east of Weston
is where the train became stalled and
without a house in sight the condi
tion was not a pleasant one for either
.passengers or train crew.
To make matters more disagreeable
the mercury registered ten above lero
and a 45-mile pale was whirling the
snow in a blinding mass. The train
was caught between two deep drifts
and could neither go fvrward or back
ward for any distance.
As the hours went by and little or
no progress was made with the
shovels and the bucking eng.ne it be
gan to look to the passengers as
though they would be compelled to
spend the night in their seats or walk
back to Weston. Neither prospect
was particularly cheering.
The passengers on he in-coming
train No. 7 were also subjected to
considerable discomfort by the fact
that their engine was cut off to carry
section hands with shovels to the
scene of the trouble. This left the
train without any heat and the tem
perature of the coaches soon became
too low for comfort. Finally the
shivering passengers huddled into the
dining car where it was possible to
maintain a more agreeable tempera
ture. - -
No. 8 was due at Walla Walla at
8:15, arriving there at 10:25 last
night No. 7 was due here at 6 p.
m., arriving at 10:20 last night.

Judge Bennett Subjecting Witnesses
to Long Cross-examination.
Comparatively slow progress is be
ing made today in the $35,000 dam
age suit of George J. Bowlin against
the O. R. & N. Co. The testimony for
the plaintiff Is all in, but Judge Ben
nett, of counsel for the plaintiff, Is
showing a disposition to cross ques
tion the witnesses for the defense, at
great length and It seems probable
that the greater part of tomorrow, as
well as today will be consumed with
the trial of this case.
The testimony brought by the plain
till showed that he was In the employ
of the defendant company at the time
of the accident, which rendered him
a cripple for life. It also showed
that he spent 28 months in the hos
pital In Portland and that his Injur
ies ar such that he will be perma
nently disabled.
The accident happened at Gibbon
station more than two years ago and
the first witnesses placed on the
stand by the railroad company was
James Conners who was conductor of
the freight train at that time. Con
ners is now a passenger conductor. If
Judge Bennett cross-examines all of
the witnesses as long as he did Con
ners, it will take considerable time to
get In all the testimony..

New York, Jan. 14. Young-uns all
over the country will be interested to
learn that this is the birthday of Bus
ter Brown's pa, R. F. Outcault, tne
cartoonist, who Is forty-seven years
old today. "Buster" has been a
mighty profitable offspring -to Mr.
Outcault, and dutifully gives his dad
a large share of his earnings from
newspapers and the stage. Some time
ago a New" York newspaper tried to
get "Buster" away from Mr. Outcault,
on the ground that the latter wasn't
the proper sort of a parent for such
a boy, but although the courts decid
ed in' favor of the paper, "BuKter"
cleverly avoided a change of pater,
nal ancestors by merely dropping hU
name. He'd become so famous and
was so well known all over the coun
try that he didn't need any name to
maintain his fame and his place in the
affections of American youth. Mr.
Outcault also wants to make his birth
day the occasion of paying a tribute
to faithful old Tige, who has stood by
him through thick and thin, and who
also has great capabilities as a money
maker.

CAMEL HUNT IN PARIS.
Cripple Arrested Makes His Escape
on Ungainly Beast
Paris. The Paris police have been
hunting for a man named Droussineau
who escaped them on a camel. For
some time Droussineau, who lost both
legs in a railway accident, has made
his living by riding through the streets
on his camel Mahmoud and offering
postcards for sale.
One day he entered a wine shop
and drank freely. A crowd gathered
round the camel, the police interven
ed, and Droussineau was taken Into
custody. He was, however, given per
mission to ride to the police station
on Mahmoud's back, and at the street
corner both camel and cripple gave
the policeman the slip. Neither has
I been seen since.

OREGON SEVENTH IN
RAILROAD BUILDING
Portland. Oregon ranks seventh
among all the states In railroad build
ing during 1909. These figures are
compiled by the leading railroad pub
lications of the country and show
that the Beaver state added 134 miles
to Its railroads during the year Just
closed. The Pacific Northwest is de
clared to be the great goal of compo
tltve railroad building In the United
States. The struggle of the railroads
to enter Central Oregon Is detailed
and development In the Willamette
Vnlley and In the Oregon coast coun
try Is recorded. There is a far bet
ter showing for the past year than
was made in 1908, when 79 miles of
new railroad was built In this staie.
