Up in British Columbia among the

He is now about 4 years of age and )s
perfectly healthy, and gives evidence of
possessing the average amount of intelli

of simitar age, : This peculiar piece of
humanity has one body, but has two well
formed. heads, wjth perfect eyes, mouth
and nose, but one ot (he heads has yery
peculiarly formed ears. The heads are
grown together, and the appearance of
this freak of nature is anything but pre
possessing. But one mouth is used in
eating ana in making sounds, the other
seemingly not being perfectly connected

born the Inajqps looked upon it with
horror and many fergref) ta.kjng its life.

Ellensburgh Register: In an interview
with Mr. Ad. Edgar, the well-known atage

fifteen feet and three inches of fresh snow
felL "In fact," said he, "it snows more or
less every day. .The snow of course settles
very fast, but there is now a solid hard
bank of snow of twelve feet. We have four
men, including myself, and eight horses at
work. - Horses get along pretty well except
when they get off the old road, then they
flounder in the deep snow. The road from

PLUCK AND ENDURANCE.
Ten Days on Ilorse-Heat SlralgbC
Mr. Henry Egle, a large horse owner of
Silyer Lake, Lake county, Oregon, left
Sprague River on December 20th to cross
the mountains to Cycane valley, on his
way to Silver Lake, the distance being
SO miles. He had nine head of grown
horses and one colt, expecting to make
the trip of 30 miles easily In one day, and
taking only lunch for that day. After
making 21 miles a storm caught him and
he lost the trail and had to camp. His
lunch lasted him two days ; then he killed
the young colt, living on horse-veal lor
eight days. The storm finally abating he
made a pair of Indian snow-shoes by un
braiding bis raw-hide lassoo or "riatta,"
he climbed to the top of a bald butte got
sight of Mt. Hagar, and found out where
he was. Returning to camp he was again
delayed by a snow storm lasting 24. hours.
Then taking three days rations of horse-
veal he started for Cycane, leaving his
horses. He made the "A L" ranch in the
evening all right, but very tired and one
toe frozen. The snow was yery light, and
was about 8 to 4 feet deep. During the
time he was in the mountains the ther
mometer at Silver Lake registered from
zero to 28 below. Mr. Egle is a very pow
erful, active man, and an experienced
frontiersman, otherwise he would have
perished. They went back and got six
horses three horses being too weak to be
moved were left to starve. They had
been without anything to eat for ten days.
Mr. Egle says "Colt meat is best when
frozen and eaten raw." '
Jan. 13, 1S0O.
Several men are reported as missing on
and around the desert. Weather has been
cold and stormy. Snow from 4 to 5 inches
deep here at Silver Lake, but very deep in
the mountains. Mercury ranged from
zero down to 5, 8 and 10, and sometimes
24 below, but did not feci the cold as
much as at The Dalles when it was at
zero.
Horses seem to stand the cold quite
well. A great many sheep are dying on
the deser'. The snow is too deep; should
there be no Chinook in a mooth half the
sheep and cattle without leed will die.
Horses running out are doing better.

On Menday evening last Joseph Atchison,
commonly known as "Sheepherd Joe," shot
a noted character by the name of KJ. Ab
bott, in Brown & Bank's saloon, at Payette.
Fro m all that we havu been able to learn,
the particulars of the affray are about as
follows) It appears that Joe and Abbott
were in JJrowu ft Bank's saloon engaged in
gambling, when a dispute arose. Joe,
hearing of the desperate character of Ab
bott before this, quit the game, and was
standing in the room, when Abbott got up
and commenced calling Joe a coward, tel
ling him he would not shoot, at same time
drawing his knife and advancing. When
about six feet apart Joe Atchison drew
his 44-pitoI and fired, the ball taking cfiect
in Abbott's breast, just above the left nip.
pie, ranging a little down, passing clear
through his body and through the wall of
the building; but, strange to ssy, the shot
failed to canse Abbott to fall, but he kept
after Joe with his knife. After the first
shot Joe lowered his pistol, as some one
called to him not to shoot any more as he
had kuled Abbott, Joe lit opt after the
shooting, but it is supposed he concluded
to giye himself oyer to the authorities, as he
arrived here Wednesday evening late, and
the next morning surrendered himself to
Sheriff Pence, who lodged hint in jail and
notified the A.da county officials. Ou
Thursday evening Constable Edwards left;
with Joe in charge for Payette where a pre

Atchison was, when sober, a very peaceful
and quiet man, but when drinking '
he ' was inclined to be quarrelsome.
Abbott is sajd tg be a pretty (lard, character,
and is notea for making gun and knife
plays. At last accounts the wounded man
was getting along very well, and it is
thought he will recoyer.

Newsy Columns of the Ochoco
Bcvie.w.
Joe Howard was quite busy with a boat
last Tuesday driving cattle out of Crooked
river bottom above town. Some of them
had been surrounded on high spots of ground
and had to swim to reach the hills.
Sandy Finlayson is said to have lost about
one-half his sheep during the recent storm.

He had plenty of feed on the place he bought
of Colonel Wye, but tor some reason cub
sheep did not do well on hay alone.
Joe Crooks says the snow drifts still re
main level with the fences on Willow creek.
though the snow .has goue off the country
generally. Willow creekers will be able to
test the glacier method of irrigating, from
these drifts the coming season.
About three acres of the W. V. & C. M.
Co's. land, in the eastern part of town, was
washed away Tuesday and Wednesday.
Fortunately there was no houses on the
ground that was attacked by the water.
Had a few hundred dollars been spent in
dyking the. stream this land could have
been eaved.
Hon. S. A. Johns died at Good Samaritan
hospital in Portland oh Wednesday of last
week. He was well known in Prineville,
haying spent several years here with his j
son, the late vv. is. A. jonna, county juie
of this county, who died a year ago lost j
August.
The high water Tuesday! washed out the
foundation of the bridge across Ochoco, in
the eastern part of town, but the bridge was
secured with ropes and chains and kept
from floating down the stream. The piers
to the bridge on Main streetjwere also con
siderably damaged, but teams were put to
work hauling rock to refill the piers and the
bridge was kept in position.
The warm weather and rains'the first of
the week raised all the streams and Crooked
river and Ochoco got on a regular "bust"
being higher than they baye been for years,
though no material damage was done ex
cept the washing ont of one bridge and the
drowning of a fejv stock. , Tbe past few
nights have been cool, and it is generally
thought the streams will vstay Jwitliin their
binks the rest of the season.
The high water on Crooked riyer the first
of the week carried out the new bridge
across tbe river at the mouth of Newsone
creek. It is said that tbe pier in tbe cen
ter of the river, on which the bridge rested,
was filled with brush instead of rock as the
contract called for, and would not withstand
the force of the water and ice that came
against it. The bridge cost the county
something over $300, though it had been re
ceived by the county court, and the loss
will no doubt fall on the county. The wash
ing out of this bridgejis a serious disadvan
tage to the people of the easrern part of the
county, and it willjbe necessary for another
to be built next season. But if one is
erected it should be a single span, resting
on solid butments at each end, so it would
not be endangered by high waters and float
ing ice.

Editor Times Mot NT AD.-EER:
. As it has been some time since this lo
cality has been beard from I will try and
give you a few items.
The snow is all gone and grass is green.
Stock enjoy themselves immensely. Some
of our farmers have already commenced
plowing; they seem to feel as if they
would reap some benefit for their labor
when fall comes. The acreage this year
will exceed that of last year by about
one-fiAh. It is rather pleasing to talk
with tbe farmers when they feel good so
much different from lost fall. Fall grain
looks first-lass; it is about three inches
high and is of a good color. I thick
about, four-fifths of all the grain in this
locality was sown last fall.'
Onr congenial road supervisor, Mr. G.
W. Messinger, commenced work on tho
grade to-day. - It is at present in a bad
condition, but will soon be O. K. under
his supervision.
Messrs. Kagrodale and Hampton passed
tbrougu this town for Tygh Valley San
day. Mr. A. J. Kellain and wife, of Minne
apolis, brother-in-law of A. C. Huff, is
visiting here with a calculation of settling.
There is plenty of room for all. .Soil is
cheaper now than it will be in a year, and
now is the time to invest in real estate.

Signal Office, Wab Department,
Washington City, Feb. 1, 1890,
, The month of January has been much
warmer than usual over the greater por.
lion cf the country east' of tbe Rocky
tnonhtiuus, although tbe excess of temper
ature in the central valleys is somewhat
less than it was during December, 1889.
The greatest departures from the normal
temperature occurred In the middle At
lantic states and the lower lake region,"
where the moulhly mean ranged from 10
deg. to 13 deg. above the normal, and this
excess iu temperature was greater than
that ol the previous month tn this section.
In the Ohio and central Mississippi val
leys, aud generally thrpughout the south,
ern states, it was from 10 deg. lo 12 dog,
warmer than usual, while lu tiie upper
Mississippi valley . and southern New
England the mean temperature of the
month ranged from 5 deg. to 8 deg. above
the normal. '"-.
The month was colder than usual from
PukQta and. Colorado westward, to the Pa
cific coast, th? greatest departure from the
normal occurring in northern Montana,
where the mean temperature for the month
was 5 deg., or 12 deg. lower than usual.
The average temperature tor the month at
Boston was 32 deg- which was 7 dee.
above the normal ; New York, 40 deg., fo

northern i'-.Colorado, . although slightly
colder than, usual, tbe mean temperature
pf tbe mouth was generally less than 3 !

The month was noticeable for the small
number of cold, waves occurring; only
three of general extent having been ou-
served, tbe most OeciUcU nl which oc
curred from the 15th to tbe 17th, and was
attended by freezing weather as far south
as tho. gulf coast and southern Georgia.

THE DALLES BOAT RAILWAY.
The Projeet That is Kecommended by
the itoard of V. H. Baxineeia.
Ororonian.
Tbe long expected report of tbe board
of government engineer ollicers that was
to consider tbe subject of the obstruc
tions to navigation in the Columbia river,
between Tbe Dalles and Celilo, aud de
vise some method for overcoming tbem
within reasonable limits of expense, has
at last been givea to the public.
In its preliminary report, rendered in
December last, the board recommended,
as a temporary expedient for overcoming
these obstructions, that a portage single
track railroad be made on the Washing
ton side.at an estimated cost of $431,500.
Tnis could be contructed ia one year, and
would undoubtedly be the quickest and
cheapest solution of the existing difficul
ties. Kecogmzing that this project is
not free from objections, in that it re
quires transhipment of freight, and that
while perhaps adequate for the present it
may not answer future requirements, the
board has, as directed by the act defining
it duties, caused a second project to bo
prepared, which it now recommends as a
final solution to tbe problem.
In this project boats. are taken from
the river at the foot of The Dalles rapids,
and are returned to the river at the head
of Celilo falls by means of hydraulic lifts,
one at each terminus, aud ate transported
over the intermediate distance a little
more than eight milts in length by a
boat railway. The lower lift is designed
to raise the boats sixty-eight feet at low
water and the upper lift forty fett. The
distance to which the boats are to be
lifted diminish as the water rises. The
lift is an adaptation of the' hydraulic
dock in use for some years at the Uuion
Iron Works in San Francisco. The pro
cess is, therefore not experimental. The
lower lift consists of sixteen cast iron
cylinders, each thiry-one and one-half
inches in interior diameter and nineteen
feet seven inches long, weighing nineteen
tons. In 'these are rams bavin? & full
stroke of seventeen feet three inches.
Tbey are placed in two rows, forty-six
fett apart, the rams in each row being
twenty-two aud j-.ne-halt feet between
centers. There is a platform or cradlo
between these rows suppoited by chains
from the heads of the rams. The chains
ard so arranged over sheaves as to give
the cradle a speed and movement lour
times that of the rams. A device lor regu
lating the admission of the water in each
press eo controls the movement of tho
rams as tn maintain them at a uniform
speed and the cradle in a - horizontal
position, notwithstanding any difference
in the load on the several rains. The
cradle is placed under tbe boat whila in
tbe water. . After it is raised to the top ot
the lift this is removed and the car on
which the boat is to be transported ou
tbe railroad is substituted.
The railroad is a double track ordi
nary gunge road, the tracks being twenty
feet between centers, and the iron weigh
ing ninety pounds to the yard.
It is required of the car that it ehull trah
sport with safety the loaded boat or barge,
and leave sufficient flexibility to pass over
tbe horizontal and vertical curves of the
road. The maximum load to be carried is
estimated at 600 tons. Tbe pi a' form is
1 G8 feet long by 38 feet wide. The lateral
flexibility to enable the c r to pits around
curves is obtained by the arrangement of
the trucks. There is thirty-four four-;
wheeled trucks placed in two lines of
seventeen each. . . ..
Tbe weight of tire car is 300 tons.
The maximum weight is 600 ton?, making
the total weight of the loaded car 900
tons. The average- load per truck is
twenty seven and one-half t:,r., and per
wheel seven Ions. The car witn its lovd
is propelled on the track by two fifty-toa
ordinary locomotives.
The boats are 1C3 feet long and 33 feet
beam and 5 feet draught, weighing with
cargo COO tons. The weight of the cradle
184 tons. The total weight to be raised
in the lift is 1458 tons. The speed of
elevation, four and one-half feet per
minute. -. .'
The estimated cost of the whole system,
with equipment of two cars and four
engines, capable of passing eight loads of
600 tons iu each direction in twelve hours,
including necessary buildings, and ten
percent for contingencies, is $2,690,356.
Estimate for improving Three Mile
Rapids. $170,060, making an aggregate of
$2,800,356. It is estimated that a further
expenditure of $716,000 io buildings, cars
engines, and side tracks,, will afford tbe
maximum capacity of forty boats each
way in twenty-four hours. -
The annual cost of maintenance to pa
sixteen beats in twelve hours is estimated
to be $80,000; and topass thirty-two in
twenty-four hoprs would cost $50,000.
The estimated time for transporting one
boat from Tbe Dalles to the head of
Celilo falls is one hour and a half.
The duty of formulating this , scheme
and working up its details was assigned
to . Lieutenant Edward Burr, corps of
engineers, whose teport accompanies that
of the board. -
Tbe board claims as especial merits of
this project that it avoids river improve
ment at Ten Mile rapids; that consider
ing the formidable character of the ob
structions its estimated cost is moderate,
and that tbe operation of transferring a
boat from river to river is effected in less
time(oioety minutes) than by any other
method.
. Tbe boai J makes no estimate as to tbe
length. of time that will be required to
complete the work.- Tbis is probably
because of the' uncertainty with which
the fuuds for such government enterprises
are doled out in driblets.1 With the ex
ample pf the Cascade locks in view it
may be expected tbs,t many generations
will come and go before the work is completed.-
Nor does it discuss tbe commer
cial elements involved in tbe problem, or
express an opioiou as to tbe advLibility
of tbe government commencing a work
of any kind.
