complete the improvement. Mr. Moigun
described minutely the work done to saye
the bulkhead, and says it wis heroically
accomplished. It was extended to the gov
ernment buildings and constructed of sand
baps and stone, and on top of these were
laid fascines, kept down by heavy rocks, so
that the enas of the brush should lap over
and save the washirg of the outer walls,
On the inner side was laid a solid wall of

ing t3 the boys, "McNamara will get a good
strapping tonight for telling an officer h4t
happened in my charge." And Bryant
added, "Not only that, but we'll whip him
for telling a falsehood." The boy was taken

ant wrongfully accused him. Ia reply to
this Mr. Hendricki said "Dry up, or you'll
get another strapping." Little McNamara
then appealed to other officers, each cf
whom went to the record book and fouod
the boy's words to be true; that the report
giyeo by the lady was not recorded, and

Fallowing is crop-weather bulletin, No,
13, oi the Oregon stats weather service, for
the week euding Monday, June 25, 1S94,
by B. S. Pague, local forecast official:
EASTERN- OBEGON.
The weather continues cool, partly cloudy
and a few light showers have occurred.
The mean temperature ranged from u8 to
64 degrees, which is practically the same as
last week. There has been an absence of
warm afternoons and the nights continue to
be quite cool.
Crops The harvesting of rye is now in
progress in the Columbia liver valley.where
also the birley will soon be reidy to cut.
Winter wheat is very promising; spring
sown and volunteer crops will make a good
yield. In Wasco, Gilliam and Morrow
counties, the wheat prospects are usually
the poorest, this year rival the prospects of
Umatilla, Sherman and Union. The hay
crop is heavy. Some hay ranches and or
chards were ruined for this year's crop at
least by the flood in the Columbia. The
fruit prospects are generally very brigh
though tne late frosts did do considerable
damage. "I have never seen better pros
pects for good crops" writes several well
known correspondents. To the south
the Cilumbia river valley the late fronts,
extending up to the middle of June, di
considerable damage especially to vegeta
bles. A Grant county correspondent re
ports "the frmt crop yery short, almost
failure. The hay crop is pronounced short.
A green fly is damaging fruit trees. Squ:r-
rels are doing damage." Generally through
the in erior thu cattle are fat and the range
feed is good. Snow fell to the depth of
two inches on the 10 h and 11th at KJatn
ath Falls. Sheep "shearing is pnctic illy
eompleted and the wool is unusually clean,
heavy and of loog staple.
Flood The Columbia and tributary riv
ers continue to fall and are slowly receding
to within their banks. The waters yet
continue to be high; bat they are below the
destruction point. The riyerp will continue
to fall, though the decline will be slow, not
much over a foot during the next seven
days.

Senator Dolph and 'family will return
to Oregon very soon after the adjourn-

Senator Dolph as a campaign speaker
will be asked in many of the eastern
states previous to the election. Several
t. - applications have already been made to
him, seite of them from personal friends

The Indians at Ft. Simcoe will cele
brate the coming 4tn of July in a becom

It seems they bayo found the steamer
Brother Jonathan at last. The vessel was
sunt about thirty years ago, opposite
Crescent City, and a company formed for
the purpose has found the wreck near a
sunken wall.npon which the vessel struck
when she went down. It is thought that
there were millions of dollars in her
treasure boxes and this has been the in
centive of many searches during the past
w generation.
The cruel barbarisms of the Indians
are still in vogue in Montana, and near
Havre in that state, the Cree Sun
dance for three days has just com
menced. Three braves were hung up
by thongs thrust into slits in their
breasts and slashed by Chief Little Egg.
All Paint, a young buck, had slits cut in
-his shoulders and into the inserted
thongs were tied four buflalo skulls
which he dragged after him. Eighty
pieces of flesh were cutout of his arms
to be kept as tokens.
Detective Joe Day, for many years con
nected with the Portland police depart
ment, returned le that city Sunday from
Chicago, where he had been in the Pink
erton service during the past two years or
more. Joe says be has had his surfeit of
the east. He doesn't crack np the large
cities or the people beyond the Rocky
mountains, and prefers to live in Ore
gon under all and any circumstances.
Judging from the tenor of his talk, he
will resume his residence in the metrop
olis. Mr. Day formerly resided in The
Dalles, ana is well known to all old resi
dents. Exchange : . Governor Pennoyer has
more fun than any man in Oregon. He
has been very reticent since the late
election, but the news from California
has thawed him out. When seen this
morning he was glancing over a newsr
paper while a broad smile played over
bis face, "I have just been reading the
criticisms of the country press on what
they call 'defeated Pennoyerism,' " he
said, "but it is only another case where
all the little asses think it is their chance
to back up and take a kick at the dead
: lion."
The run of salmon still continues phe
f nomenally large in this vicinity, and
fishermen are kept busy conveying the
daily "catch" from the boats to the can
nery. They come in snoais, and at
times the rfver is lull of them. So far
y- this season has been the beet for fishing
purposes that has been experienced for
many years. The loss of several statio
ary wheels during the flood has decreased
: the facilities for fishing, but if the pre
sent run continues 1894 will be excellent
in the export trade of salmon.

About 50,000 pounds of wool were re
ceived at Moody's warehouse yesterday,
and it was one of the liveliest days of the
season. At present there are no transpor
tation facilities, east or west, and this has a
bad effect on the wool market. There are
several buyers in the city who offer what
they consider fair prices, bnt which sellers
consider very low. If the railroad were in
good condition, east and west, there would
be buoyancy in the local market for this
product not experienced for some time past.
At the fire last evening a misdirected
stream of water knocked off a fireman's hat
into the flames and it was coosuined before

He did not ascertain the fact, and would
have received more compliments trom the
people if be attended to his duties instead
of vacating his post in anch an emergency.

Tbe Northern Pacific has suffered
heavily during the recent high water, al
though not as much perhaps as the Union
Pacific. Along the line of the road there
have been washouts and landslides, and
the following from a Washington ex
change is a description of one of these:
"From a passenger who arrived this
morning from the sound it is learned
that a terrible landslide occurred about
17 miles this side of Ellens burgh on Sun
day night, delaying trains for two days.
The elide occurred in a deep canyon and
the track was covered to a depth of fif
teen to twenty feet with earth and huge
boulders, while the river was half filled
withTocks. The various slides were from
one and a half to two miles in length.
The regular passenger train due on Mon
day was delayed until 2 e'clock Tuesday
afternoon.
Saved From tfee Sea
Down by the sounding sea, at Astoria
not a season passes that several fishermen
are not sacrificed to the angry waves, and
1894 is proving no exception. Already
several of these hardy sons of Neptune
have found a watery grave beneath the
billons of flie Columbia, and scarcely a
day passes that one or more are not
stratched from the jaws of death by the
life-saving crew or passing ships. The
following iroin tiio,' Astorian of last Sat
urday gives intelligence of the rescue af
two fishermen who were saved after pass
ing ey.er tbe bar in their trail craft: "Mr.
John Fox received a latter yesterday from
a well known citizen of Newport, con
veying the welcome news that the two
fishermen carried over the bar some days
ago had been picked np at sea, from the
bottom of their capsized boat, by the
steamer BavariU, oa the evening ot tbe
19th inst., and safely landed at the Cove
Foulweather light house. Keeper Plum-
mer took the men over to Newport on
Wednesday morning, where they are
awaiting the departure of the stearner
Tonquin, now wind bound in that port for
Astoria."
Southern Oregon Caves.
The caves in that portion of the state
have attracted a great deal of attention
recently, and the following description is
from the Grant's Pass Courier: "Deputy
Sheriff Galleener took a trip to the caves
last week to serve an attachment on per
sonal property. Palatial, vaulted cham
bers, glistening stalactites, brilliant stal
agmites, cool, refreshing crystal springs
and long tortuous passages, greeted him
everywhere. By and by, when we get
communication opened up with these
orgeous underground palaces a throng
of sightseers will be on the road all the
time. It has been suggested that the
government reserve these mighty cham
bers and develop them for the benefit of
the entire nation. It would be a good
idea and a commission to examine them
should be sent out by congress."
A Fireman Injured.
Union Pacific passenger No. I was de
layed Saturday night and did not reach
here until Sunday morning at,2 o'clock, says
the East Oregonian. The cause was the
ditching of a freight just beyond Wilbur.
The train consisted of 23 cars of wood aod
was drawn by two big engines. As the
freight came up ta the trestle a band of
horses was on the track at the small bridge,
one animal being fast in the bridge. Before
the engines coul 1 be checked to a standstill,
the horse was struck and a catastrophe was
the result. Both engines were thrown from
the track, followed by one car. Tbe bridge
was struck in such a manner as to almost
entirely destroy it, at least foar bents be
ing toro out. All the train crew but one,
Charles Nor r in, the fireman, escaped being
severely injured. Mr. Norris received in
juries which may lay him up for . three
months. As he saw that the engines woqld
jump into the ditch, he concluded to do the

A Windfall.
For many years an honest an industrious
Dane has tilled the siil on a small faim in
Klickitat county, barely making a living
for himself and family, and during years
when crops were a partial failure being
"hard pushed" to provide food and clothing
for tho?e dependent upon him. This was
not always so with our Danish friend, for
when he left the old country a young man
to seek his fortune in this far-away land he
bid farewell to a comfortable home and bis
parents were in good circumstances regard
ing property and money; but some unpleas
antness arose wbioh caused him to change
his habitation. Many times during his
hard life he has thought of the old home
stead, sr.d tbe agreeable circumstances that
would hate surrounded him bad he re
mained; but he made his choice of a new
location and was determined to be brave
whatever might happen. But a sudden
cbange has come over the spirit of his
dreams, and his future will be much differ
ent from what he anticipated. A few days
ago he received a letter from Denmark con-
', taming the sorrowful intelligence of the
death of a relative, hat also informiug him
that he was the only heir to a fortune of PARK REMEDY CO.. BflStflll MflSS

It was evidently a premeditated attempt
at suicide that induced Lewis Martin, the
boat builder, to tie an anvil to one end of a
rope and fasten the other around his neck
last luesday at Astoria. In this condition
be proceeded to tbe wharf to end his exist
ence; nut before ne got to the jumping off
place the anvil tell through the planking.
and he was nearly choked to death by being
wedged in the bole made by tbe heavy
weight falling into the water; bnt he was
rescued Delore me was extinct. It is a
pity that such a deliberate attempt should
prove fntile, and tbe loss of the anvil is to
be deplored. The next time he tries to
commit the deed be should bire some one to
dump the anvil in tbe river at the oppor
tune moment, and then tbe attempt may
be successful.

The Fire Fiend.
Last evening abont 8 o'clock an alarm of
fire sounded from the bell at the engine
honse, and soon the d.fijrent companies of
the department were en route to the scene
of the conflagration. The fire was ascer
tained to proceed from a dwelling house on
the bluff, in Fulton's ad lition, south of the
Mothodibt church, aqd occupied by Mr.
Beck and family. Mt, Hood Hose Co. bid
fair to be entitled to the first water, but
Columbia Hose Co. Usurped tbe position at
the plug and. carried away the honor. The
flames burned fiercely but slowly, as they
started on tbe outside of the building and
were forced to fight their way through the
root ana eaves to tne interior, but soon
there were two well directed streams of
water to combat their fury. The family had
time to move out, and saved all their fur
niture. Before the flames were subdued the
house was almost completely ruined, al
though the shell remains intact. The build
ing is owned by Mr. Wm. Jfrizasl, and bia
loss will be $300 or $1000. Fortunately no
wind was blowing, and tbe fire was con
fined to a single itrnoture.
Damage to tbe IVockat. .
Mr. Geo. P. Morgan, of the Cascade
Locks, is in the city today. He says in a
conversation with Major Post he learned
tho fact that tbe works will be constructed
ten feet higher than was formerly intended,
so as to be above the high water, mark of
this season.. The present canal and locks
were constructed so that the npper em
bankment should be 139.7 feet above sea
level, and tbis will be increased to some
thing over 159 feet. All rip rapping on
dry ground will be discontinued, as tbis has
proved no protection against the wash of
the waves. Tbe work on the gates will be
changed so as to make arrangements for the
increased height. Parts cf the steel gates
have already arrived, bnt these will be
condemned, and new onea ordered to agree
with the enlarged plans. Of course this
loss will fall on the government, and not on
Day Bros. To repair the damages and alter
tbe works to the revised plana will cause
about a year's delay, but tbe extra expense
will not be met by the contractors, and it
Rough Road.
The dust-brown travelers who arrived
yesterday in carriages from the landing of
the Almota at the month of the Deschutes
had an nnplcasant driye of seventeen miles.
The road is not the smoothest in tbe world,
and the np hills and downhills are too fre
qnent to make it delightful. In places
there are washouts, and tbe driver has to
manage bis animals carefully, as a deviation
of a foot would hnrl tbe vehicle down into
deep gnljhes. On the highlands the wind
blows continually, and it is almost impossi
ble to protect eyes or face from the clouds
of dnst. When tbe passengers arrived at
the Umatilla Honse, from appearance, one
could not distinguish "race, color or pre
vious oondjtion of irvitude." The first com.
fort tbey desire is a bath, and from this they
emerge like Maaeppa, to assume the posi
tion of christians and men.
