self-supporting. Heppner Gazette
Water consumers complain because
there is not a ereater supply for ir
rigation purposes, but this is largely
their own fault. If all would confine
, themselves strictly to the hours pre
scribed by the commission for irrigat
ing there would be sufficient water for
all. But too many allow their bidrants
to be open at all hours, hence the small
reservoir is exhausted, and when this
occurrs the supply will certainly be
short.
To "shie" a rock at a bird is a great
v temptation to every small boy, and if
. he has a gun his first thought is too
1 shoot everything that flies, yet many
a little fellow does this untboughtedly
' and not realizing that he is violating
the law. ' Yet for his conduct he is
liable to punishment. Section 25 of
an act passed by the legislature of 1895
makes it unlawful to kill any song
bird in this state, and provides a fine
. for the unlawful killing of such birds.

done to increase the city water sup
ply.

The director of docks at Liverpool
recently visited this state, and after
examining the harbor at the mouth of
the Columbia said it was the most
natural harbor he bad ever seen. All
that is necessary to make it a great
shipping point, he says, is to construct
docks, where nature has provided per
fect shelter from the ocean winds, and
an abundance of water is found for
anchoring the largest vessels. When
this is done he believes the mouth of
the Columbia will be the principal
shipping point of the Northwest. His
views coincides with -those of nearly
everybody who has studied the situa
tion. The great distributing point
of the Northwest must eventually
be at the nearest safe harbor to
the ocean.

Mike Sullivan Drank a Pint of WhUkey
and Died From the Effects.

Silvertooth's saloon, on last Saturday
morning, from heart failure, brought
about by over-indulgence in drink.
Mike had been drinking heavily since
bis arrival in town two days prior to
bis death, but had not complained of
feeling ill. On the morning of his
death, he got a pint bottle of whiskey
at Dial's saloon saying he was going
to leave town. Soon after that he was
seen to empty tbe bottle at one drink,
wbile sitting down in front of Dyce's
barn. From there he went to Silver
tooth's saloon, and taking a drink
said he was going to sleep. Sitting
down by the table he leaned over with
his head on tbe table, and was soon
snoring in the manner of a man deep
ly drunk. Silvertooth and Tom Hen-
neghan, about three-quarters . of an
hour after this, attempted to carry
Mike out of the house, when they dis
covered that he was dead. Dr. Pilk
ington was summoned, and found life
to be extinct, althougb tbe body was
still warm.

Justice Glisan and an inquest held up
on the body. . A number of witnesses
were examined, and the above facts
brought out. Dr. - Pilkington oxam
ined the body but no marks of any
kind were found, and gave his opinion
that deceased came to his death from
heart failure, caused by excessive in
dulgence In drink. The jury so ren
dered their verdict.
Tbe deceased was born in Ireland
40 years ago, but - has been in this
country the past 20 years. His sudden
death will be a great surprise to tbe
many who knew good-natured Mike
Suilivan, whose worst fault was his
fondness for strong drink. Antelope

TO RECEIVE
THE REGIMENT
A Big Flotilla
Will Meet the Soldiers at
Astoria.
Captain Edwards, of Portland, is ar
ranging for a grand demonstration on
the Columbia when the Oregon regi
ment shall return from Manila, and
will congregate the lai gest flotilla of
steam boats ever got together on the
river. He proposes to secure every
passenger boat tbat goes to Portland
and have them leave the city on the
day the regiment arrives Inside tbe
harbor. The boats will drop down tbe
river from Portland until they meet
the transports, then will line up, half
on each side, forming a guard as It
were to the incoming vessel.
It is intended to make a rate of one
dollar for the trip from Portland and
return, aud all transportation lines
running into Portland will make
special rates. One of the D. P. & A. N
boats will be in the fleet, and possibly
both, if the locks can be operated by
tbat time so as to permit the Regula
tor reaching the lower river. At all
events tbe D. P. & A. N. Co. will make
special rates between here and Port
land for tbe occasion. '
It is the purpose to apply the net
proceeds of tbe big excursion to As
toria to swelling tbe fund for enter
taining the soldiers in Portland, the
amount required for this purpose being
estimated at $15,000.
THE USUAL KICK.
Ralem
Wants the Earth and Complains
Because It Don't Get It.
There will be no ten days' encamp
ment of tbe National Guard In July at
the state fair grounds, Salem, as had
been planned. Tbe companies will
camp a day at Portland.
Tbat is the plan now, but they will
probably be in camp there for several
days. The state military board has
decided, in view of the Oregon volun
teers coming borne at about tbe same
time the encampment was to be beld
here, to make tbe newly organized
companies a guard of honor at tbe re
ception to the regimental Portland.
This seems to be proper and will, save
expense it is believed. Tbe encamp
ment at Salem is estimated by Adjutant-General
Tuttle to cost $17,000,
wbile the rendervous at Portland be
figures will cost but $3,000. It will not
readily appear why tbe encampment at
Salem would not have permitted just
as much attention being paid thn
home-coming regiment. But the
powers that-be say not so.
Its looks like a little sharp practice
on the part of General Tuttle to shut
Salem out of an encampment, - and
Salem will have to look if we even get
to see Company K, or is allowed to see
the Second ' Oregon as it passes
through. Salem Journal
It is a little surprising tbat the
Journal should complain at a change
is the program tbat will Bave tbe state
$14,000, for It Is usually on theside of
economy, but it bas had its head
quarters at tbe state capital so, long
that it has absorbed some of tbe traits
of the proverbial "Salem hog." '

brother, W. F. Matlock, and his son,
Leslie Matlock, where eminent author
ities made diagnosis, and gave no hope
of recovery. . He was immediately
brongbt back, and the end awaited by
his family.
Mr- Matlock was one of the pioneers
of Oregon. He was one of tbe men
who came Into Oregon when it was
new acd not yet changed from its
natural wild condition. He had bis
part in tbe work of development, and
he did that work well. And his death
takes away a citizen val aable alike to
his own associates and to the general
public. East Oregonian.

Nothing Bnt ChlcKenpox.
At the request of Counnty Cominis
sioner Evans, Drs. O. C. Hollister and
Andrew Smith, of Portland, were
called to Hood River on the 22d for
the purpose of investigating the al
leged smallpox cases there. In com
pany with Dr. Watt they visited the
patients, and after a thorough-examin
ation pronounced tbe cases chicken'
pox. The investigation made by
these gentlemen should allay all fear,
and cauee an end to the smallpox
scare in Hood River and vicinity.
RETURNING YOUTH.
"I am seventy yean
young," said Oliver
Wendel Holmes wben they
asked bis age.
True enough.
He was young
because his
heart was
young; his
step was firm;
his eye was
bright; his
laugh was
clear and
"ZT merry; his
aDDetite was
good, and above all so was bis
digestion.
No man should be old before his time
because of a weak stomach,, sluggish
liver, shaky nerves and flabby muscles.
There is no need of it. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery cures these
things. It brings back youth to the
feeble because it brings back keen appe
tite and good digestion. It tones up the
liver, puts oxygen and life into the
blood, and sohd strength into the flesh
and muscles. It contains no alcohol to
inebriate or create a morbid appetite or
craving for stimulants.
I have nrvrr felt better in my life than I do
now." says Chsrles Hunwick. of Lenox. Macomb
Co., Mich., iu a remarkable letter to Dr. R. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo. N, Y. " I have taken Dr. .
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovei v right alone.
I cavnow walk quite well with a cane and hope
to lov even that away before lone, and as I
have had to use crutches for nearly two vears. I
think 1 am doing fine. I do not cough now and
1 can eat and sleep like a school boy. 1 think I
will have to change my mind about ' Patent
Medicines.' as 1 never had much faith in them:
but you mtit know that I have been treated in
two hospitals and by three doctors besides, and
received no benefit: so I think your medicine is
the only medicine for me."
There is nothing in the world for
constipation like Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. They should be taken in con
junction with the "Discovery," when
ever any disease is complicated with that
dangerous condition. Nothing else that
may be offered in their place will ac
complish what they will. And their re
lief is permanent. Write to Dr. Pierce
for free advice.
A GHASTLY FIND. '
BemalnS of a Dead Man Discovered far
Up In the Blue Mountains.
A few days ago, while pursuing his
lonely vocation far up the Grand
Ronde river, beyond the last human
habitation, a shepherd had his atten
tion attracted by the unusual action of
one of bis dogs. Supposing some wild
animal was at bay, or the fresh tiack
of panther or bear was sented, he
cautiously approached the place.
Garments that the heavy snow had
pressed to the ground startled bis sus
picion that he was confronted by a
chamber of death. . The mountains"
looked more lonesome than ever, and
the distance from living man seemed'
to double." With a strange fear in his
heafrt he searched the lonely canyon,
and Soon found the mangled remains
of a npan.
Wild animals had torn the flesh
from tihe limbs, leaving the gristle
and bojnes exposed. Decay's effacing
finger J had swept human semblance
from tpie face. The empty eye-sockets
mutely? told of the darkness from which
a living soul had fled. It was miles
and milas along a dimly trodden trail
to wbertL people lived. The shepherd
turned from the dead and sought tbe
living, ajjod tbe occupants of an outpost
cabin ws notified of tbe ghastly find.
They returned with the shepherd, and
then senft a man to La Grande, 40
miles awjay, to notify the authorities.
The coroner came with a jury, and
me inqpest was neio, out lew were
tbe responses given to tbeir question
ing; 'only mute things were there. A
coat and: vest lay some distance from
the corpse. No shoes were found
Two dollars and ten cents were in one
pocket.) A scrap of paper, a prescrip
tion for medicine and a few words
fromwhich it appeared the paper had
been written near or at Wei9er, Idaho,
and had on it the name of Charles
Angel, and tbat some one bad worked
efi the railroad from Weiser to Seven
'Devils copper mines. The body indi
cated that it was about 40 years old
and bad been dead since February or
March.

have gained ground that Tbe Dalles is

casion. Tbere need be no uneasiness
from this source, for all tbat may de
sire to come will be cared for. Tbe

Drowned In Klickitat.
A man working for E. Hayes as a
log driver was drowned in Klickitat
river about four miles above Lyle yes
terday morjlng at 10 o'clock. Mr,
Hayes bas a contract for furnishing
saw logs to Row a & Co's mill at Lyle,
and had a large drive in the river
A jam occurred some three miles
above tbe falls, when a party of men
went v break it. As tbe logs began
to mo.'e tbe man in tbe center, whose
name. we. have been unable to learn,
was caught between two logs, and
went down Into the river. His com
rades were unable to reach him. hence
being rendered helpless he perished in
tbe stream. The body probably pas
sed oyer the falls and into tbe Co
lumbia river, therefore will likely not
be recovered.
8a Mill Burned.
About 4 o'clock yesterday morning
the saw mill in tbe Cascade moun
tains 16 miles north of Lyle, belonging
to Hansen & Thompson, of this
place, was destroyed by fire together
with some 2u00 feet of choice lumber.
How the fire originated is not known.
but as it was a steam mill It probably
caught from sparks that had been
smouldering in the sawdust.
Tbe loss Is estimated at 11,800 on
which there was no insurance, and is a
serious blow to Messrs. Hansen &
Thompson as they had only recently
started the mill, having sawed per
haps 300,000 feet of lumber this season,
and had a large number of logs in the
yard, which cannot be utilized unless
tbe mill Is rebuilt. Tbe mill, though
remote from transportation, was lo
cated in a fine body of timber, the
lumber it was turning out finding a
ready sale both here and in Portland.
