truly glad to hear of his prosperity ami
that he is making hisnHf u.-seful in his

to be of a little service to him, fetill I
havu't forgotteh and now I desire to
render hiui a fs ill faltlft-r service by con
tiibutiiig t his scliool tlit? following
from the "Shorter Catechism." It may
at irst sight appear to be a little stale,
hue like many other good things, it has
retoar&able keeping qualities and will be
of some service in the primary class:

Who married a negro woman arid by

Richard M. Johnson, a good Demo
crat Who elected Richard M. Johnson
Vice President of the United States?
The Democratic Party.
If president Van Bure.i had died and
Richard M. Johnson had become presi

This same neirro woman.
If the class gets along well with the

so'iie future time give the remainder of
the catechism.
We are having nice weather here, as
much so as is de. irable' in this muu

money scarce.
By the way Major, how goes that rai.

Andrew Hamilton, a gentleman who
passed the. last year iu what is uhown ,
as "the big Wtom" of Oowlitf river,
abodt 80 miles east of Northern Pacific
branch line from Kalama to Tacoma,
called on The TELEGRAM yesterday af
ternoon and gave a reporter some very
interesting information concerning that
section. In compary with his brother
James, who died several days ago iu
that region, Mr. Hamilton has been
prospecting and clearing a home for some
ti uc past, and it was with them that
Pickler, the man who was murdeivd
recently, lived. Mr. Hamilton stated
that he was satisfied that the murderers
of Pickler were two young men who had
been at their cabin several times and
who seemed to "nave no business in the
vicinity. At one time they asked where
Pickler was and another time they de
manded flour and provisions of Mr.
Hamilton. As he was unarmed and
txhjne, with two sick men in the house,
and both of the fellows were well sup
plied with arwisr he was o jligc-d to give
them all they wanted. Pkkler had
hoas:ed of- having oney and it is
thought tht they murdered him and
fled. Mr. Hamilton's brother died soon
atter, and he came in to the raili'oad for
supplies,
Mr. Hamilton is an old prospector and
niK-erandit was with the intention of
discovering mines thai he and his broth
er went up the Cowlilz river. His
brother's sie'eness and deata during the
dry season compelled lii.u to postpone
prospecting, and his work ws mainly in
clearing on a farm and similar duties.
The Big Bo torn is a line scope of farm
ing land 15 miles long and five miles
wide King on both sides of the Cowlitz
river. It is thickly covered with vine
manle now with considerable cedar and
pine. The oi'. splendid and the half
dozen seltlts who are already in there
raised excellent crops of whatever was
planted. The land is tVn'storveycd, but
men will be sent iu early in the spring
to run 'the lines so that each farmer will
know what he is settling on. Four per
sons wintered there la- winter and sev
eral others eime in this summer, put vp
houses, and will move in next r.pVing
with their -families. The principal
trouble now is the lack of roads, no good
road being opened yet into the bottom.
Surwyors wid'connm nee tle work in a
few days and bv next spring it is thought
the section will le easy.i.f access.
Mr. Ilaindc n will begin prospecting
agiin iu the spring as soon as the rains
cease.
lie has fou mi indications of atithratfite
coal among the hills around the bottom
and silver and go!d piospects are pi. nti
ful. He is satisfied that valuable finds
of coal will be made in that region, and
as he has had experience iu coal mining,
he is .satisfied it is of the auchracite va
riety. Mr. Hamiltcn will lay in supples
in Portland for the winter and return in
a few days to his isolated home. Tclc-
