DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN PORTLAND.
The Weldler Mill Burned Causing a. Lou
of eiso.ooo.
The entire plant of the Willamette
Steam Mill, Lumbering & Manufactur
ing Company, better known as Weid-
ler's mill, was destroyed by fire Fri
day afternoon. The loss is approxi
mately $130,000, and is covered by in
surance to the amount of $40,000, dis
tributed in small policies among
several local agents. The origin of
the fire was accidental, and owing- to
the extremely dry condition of th
mill and yard, its spread was so rapid
that nothing could be saved. Rober
Mays, an employe of the mill, has not
been seen since the fire started, and
It is believed by his fellow-workmen
that he was overcome while endeavor
ing to make his escape and has been
burned to death.
At 3:30 . o'clock in the afternoon
Joseph Kane, an operative working on
the second or main floor of the saw
mill building, discovered a small flame
which had burned a hole through the
floor directly over a small saw tech
nlcally known as the "pony." Kane
raised an alarm of fire, and running to
the alarm box on the premises box
43--he turned in an alarm, while
companion blew a small steam whistle
in the mill, which is the signal to
shut down. Te minutes after the
alarm was turned in, and before the
big engines could be ' brought to
standstill, the flames had burst through
the roof of the fram sawmill building
crossed and caua-ht the large frame
sash and door factory 20 feet west of it
and, running along tbe passage which
protects tho rope transmission con
nectirig the eng ne wit the mill, had
tilled the metal-sheathed engine-room
and forced the engineer an.l fireman
to leave the engines and run for the!
lives. The mill, together with the
entire stock of lumber, .was a total
loss. Tbe fire was under control at
5:30, after burning two hours. The
mill was built in 1872, and had done a
lurj-e business. Two hundred men are
thrown out of employment by the
burning of the mill.

They Had a Good Time.
Last Saturday evening the Elks
chartered the steamer Regulator for a
cruise on the Columbia, and with their
wives and lady friends left here at 9
o'clock for down river points. They
went down fo Lyle where tbey tied up
for awhile, and the 126 who composed
tbe excursion party disembarked, and
amused themselves by clambering
around over the mountain side in the
moonlight. After devoting a couple
of hours ',o enjoying the outing at
Lyle, they agalo boarded the vessel
and steamed back to The Dalles, arriv
ing here at 1 A. M. Sunday morning.
To say that the Elks and their guests
had a good time -is putting it pretty
mildly, for there was nothing but
jollity during the entire -voyage. The
cabin of the Regulator was elegantly
decorated with evergreens, and three
elk's heads were tastefully mounted
among the firs, while the lower deck
was converted into a dancing hall, and
to the strains of excellent music, those
who so desired, spent the time in
dancing both going and coming. In
addition to the other amusements, an
excellent lunch was spread, consisting
of sandwicyes, ice -ream and cake
which was greatly relished by all. Tne
excursion was enjoyed by all, and, it
is to be hoped, will be repeated some
time during the summer.

Frank Jobton, the genial fireman

railroader, and has had some exciting
experience in bis time, but be never
bad a more exciting ride than the one
be took down the cut on Union street
last Saturday. He rented a tandem ot
Mays & Crowe, and invited a friend U
join him in a ride. They turned th
thing loose at the top of the bill. The
guued along very nicely for a time.
nut the further they went the faster
: he tandem ran, and by tbe time they
reached Fifth street they were go n.
it the rate of about 50 miles an hou
and the machine was beyond control
Jobson whistled down brakes, but tbi
brakes wouldn't down. The tanden
was on a rampage, and all the riders
could do was to hold on and trust to
luck. Leyel ground was finally reached
and then they stopped, when Jobi-on
found that his best pair of eight dollar
pants were wrecked, and his wardrobe
-vas generally disheveled, so . he took
the machine back to its owners, an

Successful Experiments Made With Them
in This City.
Joseph A. Mc Arthur, electrician for
The Dalles Electric Light Co., has
been conducting a number of experi
ments vith z rays, and is much en
couraged with the sucess be has thus
far achieved. He has an induction
battery and peculiar system of con
necting the electrial circuit, of his own
invention, by which all the force of
the circuit is utilized. This he las
attached to one of the most improved
Crook's tubes for producing tbe
cathode rays, and is enabled to pro
du'5e a light of powerful penetration.
With an exposure of fifteen minutes
he has been able to photograph two
sets of engineers tools through a half
inch of solid walnut, getting a perfect
negative; under an hour's expoeure he
got a perfect photograph of his band,
showing all the bones and joints as
plainly as if the picture were taken
from a hand from which the flesh bad
been removed.
Today Mr. McArthur. assisted by
Dr. Holllster, made a test of the rays
For a practical purpose, and v hile the
experiment was not entirely satis
factory, tbey are encouraged to make
another test. The subject of the oper
ation was M. M. Norrls. who two years
ago got the elbow of his right arm
caught in the gear of a threshing
machine, and had the bones badly
crushed. The wound has not healed
properly, and Dr Hollisler is con
vinced .that a portion oi the bone has
decayed. . To ascertain the location of
the diseased portion of tbe bone he
desired to secure a photograph of the
elbow. Mr. Norrls' arm was sub
jected to an exposure of sixty-five
minutes, with his arm lying on a
sensitive negative plate and under
neath the cathode ray. The plate was
Lthen taken to Mrs. Hogan for de-
velopement, and while it showed the
outlines of tbe bones, it was not suffi
ciently distinct to meet the require
ments of tbe surgeon. Had the ex
posure lasted longer, the experiment
would have proved a success. Another
experiment will be made in a few days,
lasting an hour and 'a half, shen it is
expected a perfect photograph of the
bones of tbe elbow will be secured.

Condition of Cr. ps.
The bulletin issued from the Oregon
climate and crop bureau on June 29,
says of the condition of crops in East
ern Oregon:-
Tbe warm weather, while it has not
been of benefit, has not been of any
special harm, though it continuation
would absolutely ruin the wheat crop,
foe weather conditions have been so
favorable so far that should there be
no recurrence of the hot winds the
jrops will be good. In some sections
of Morrow county the dry, hot weather
has been harmful to tbe grain crop;
the same in a portion of Wasco. Sher
man and Umatilla counties, but tbe
presumed damage is not so far very
trreat. Srring-own grain is less able
to stand the dry weather than the fall
sown. . Correspondents report that
grain well put in in good summer-fal-lowed-ground,
will make a good crop,
no matter what tbe weather
There are no improved fruit condi
tions. Some fruit continues to fall.
The fruit as a whole Is "superior to the
crop of Western Oregon. Apples , in
the Hood River country were but little
effected by the weather. Peaches,
p.-tars, prunes and cherries promise to
-aand the current weather and to
mature satisfactorily. Berries are.
plentiful and the weather is favorable
to them. -

The ftkuMt Lrop.
The bulletin Issued -by the depart
ment of agriculture for the month of
June concerning the crop conditions
of the country,' shows that there is a
Jiminuatlon in the acreage of winter
wheat in some localities, but taken
throughout the entire country, there
is an increase of 572,000 acres over that
seeded last year, while there is a large
increase in the' acreage of spring
wheat. Tbe average condition of the
wheat crop Is 99.0, which indicates
t mt the wheat crop for 1890 will be
rge. In other countries tbe wheat
cro i is about up to the average. In
Grjt.1 Britain, Spain and Italy tbe
ji-op i3comparatlvaly short, but In
.Vance, Gdrmiay, Austria-Hungary
ind Russia the cop is up to or above
,he average. Still owing to the
nost failure in Australia, the worlc's
heat supply will be Short this year-.
A Token at Appreciation.
Sunday morilbar Sheriff Driver was-
called up by the men who worked for
McCoy on the Waplnitia ditch, in
whose beh If Mr. Driver has labored
incessantly to 8cure their wages, and
wa presented by them with a hand
dome gold t-tar, bearing the inscription
'Awarded to T.1. Driver, -Sheriff ol

token ot their appreciation of Mr.
Driver's labors in forcing McCoy to
pay them a portion of their wages, and

it is a token of appreciation from a lot

and for whom he haa secured a portion
of their wages from one of the worst
rascals in the state.
The Indians Object.
Albert J. Minthorn, an educated
Umatilla Indian, was in Pendleton,
Saturday, with his father, Luke Min
thorn, and bis uncle, Cash Cash.
They say that the inspector of horses
upon the reservation is discriminating
against the Indians and their animal.
Cash Cash and Minthorn, jr., say that
not one-half of the horses which have
been destroyed, were affectea with the

eased horses to be dipped twice, with
curative results, and that many oi
these have been shot since the remedy
was applied. Cash Cash says that the
men who are employed to shoot the
diseased animals do their shooting
sometimes at very long range, and
that it not infrequently occurs that
the horse aimed at Is missed and an
other and healthy animal receives the
gun's contents and falls. Charley
Minthorn and Ca-ih Cash further say
that the tails und manes are cut from
the dead horses fur tbe sake of gain.
They deny that the amen have any
right to carry off any part of the
hoives though they may be clothed
with authority to kill.
Their Blnff Was Called.
Saturday night F. W. Willlims and
Isaac Hildt rlrand were suspected of
having "lifteJ'' a lot of provisions that
were left on the porch at Seufert Bros.'
cannery and carried it to their camp
near by, and when F. A. Seufert ac
cused tbem of the tbi ft they got upon
their dignity, protesting t-ey were
honest men, above suspicloi and in
nocent of any crime, threatening dire
vengence If he di I not depart and leave
them alone. This bluff however did
not satisfy Mr. Seufert of their inno
cence, and he called upoo Sheriff
Driver Sunday to look the matter
up. When Mr. Driver reached their
camp, a short distance fro n the
Seufert cannery, tbey had left, and
he located them In a clump of brush
on Three-mile, and when he called on
them to surrender, they undertook to
run a bluff on the sheriff, tint he was
not to be intimidated, and brought
tbem to tbe county jail. Tbe stolen
properly was found in their camp,
but they protest that tbey have no
knowledge of how it got there. .
Jfrelg-ht Bnsluesa Booming.
There is reason for encoragement in
the following statement made today
by J. A. Borle, agent for the Oregon
Rail-way & Navigatiou Company at
Pendleton, Sa.s tbe East Oregonian:
"Freight business is booming just
now, an unusual thing for this season
of the year. We do nut calculate on
doing very mush in this line at this
time, . in comparisons with other
seasons. But large quanities of freight
are coming in and our freight handlers
are hustling. Freight is coming in in
car lots indicating that merchants are
buying more liberally. Tbe volume
now Is much larger than it was a year
ago, a fact that causes much gratifica
tion to our people."
TaCe's Big Damn -res.
In tbe Ut-lted States circuit court,
last Saturday, in tbe suit of the TJuited
States vs. I. H. Taffe, to condemn
lands at Celilo for the boat railway to
be built by tbe government, a verdict
was rendered in favor of Taffe for $14,-
200. Mr. Taffe has a fishery at Celilo,
and his claim is that tbe boat-railway j
running across his land will cut off a
spur between the river and his fish
house, and will also take from him a
valuable gravel pit, containing placer
gold, and worth a great deal to blm.
Mr. Taffe s fishery U one of the most
valuable in tbe river, and if it will be
ruined by the boat rail ay, the dam
ages are none too high.
Marvelous Results.
From a letter written by Rev. J.
Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich., we
are permitted to make this extract: "1
have no hesitation in recommending
Dr. King's New Discovery, as the re
sults were almost marvelous in the
case of my wife. While I was pastor
of the Baptist church, at Rives Junc
tion she was brought down with pneu
monia succeeding la grippe. ' Terrible
paroxysms of coughing . would last
hours wilh little interruption and it
seemed as II sne could not survive
tbem. A friend" recommended Dr.
King's New Discovery; it was quick in
its work and hiuhlv satisfactory in re

A large house belonging to C: A.
Bordens, located on the bluff north
east of the race track, was burned some
time between 1 and 3 o'clock tbir
morning. Tbe fire was not discovered
until tbe house was entirely consumed
and had it been the building could not
have been Saved, as it was out of reach
of the water supply. The building had
not been occupied since last Friday,
when the two families who bad form
erly lived in it moved'out, and as there
had been no fires in tbe building since
that time, tbe fire was evideutly of in
cendiary origin. .Tbe building vae
