Hesslde, Ore., Nov. 1M. During the

It nil lies In thn fact that an ochre

Thu ochro Is being sacked nnd ship

will be built up near Seaside, which
will glvu employment to a large num

Isis of Pines Americans Merely Wish
Change of Qovernment.
Havana, Nov. 21. Thu municipal
council of the Into of Pines has Issued
a lengthy statement denying the
charges madu by J. II. Kecnan, of
Pittsburg, and others, that the Island
Is in a condition bordering anarchr
and Is without proper courts, schools,
facilities for thu protection of life and
property. Thu statement alleges that
these havo all been provided and that,
although various public Improvements
aro necessary, the government has donu
more than tlio small revenues of the is
land warranted.
It Agree that tlio records show the
actual ownership of Americans of lands
In tlio Island to bu far smaller than has
Ikxii asserted, since most of such lauds
aro held on options or on thu payments
of small Installments, nnd that they al
so show thu amount of taxes paid by
Americans to Do very small.
Tlm olllcors of tlio principal lain of
Pines land company, whoso olllcea are
In Havana, say that while they bollovo
thn Island should bo considered United
States territory, they havo no com
plaint to make of thu Cuban govern
ment. Canada Takos Lessons.
Washington, Nov. 21. The Cana
dian government has not been unnwani
of thu almost miraculous transforma
tion which irrigation has been making
In thu wnstu places of thu United
States, hut has followed closely thu
work of reclamation inaugurated by
thu Federal government. Thu Interest
of our nolghlKirs In that work has boon
heightened greatly by thu influx of
sottlera to tho Northwest Torritorie
within thu past fow yenra. Heretoforo
Cmmdlttii ngrlculturo baa been confined

Washington, Nsv. 21. AltliotiKlithn
board of consulting engineers has de
cided In favor of a sea level canal, It Is
yut mi open question whether tlm Pan
ama cnunl shall bo n sea level or n lock
waterway. Thu decision of the loard
Is not final. It wan reached by n vote
of H to ft In favor of the M-a level pro
ject, General Davis and Messrs. llurr
and Parsons joining with thu live for
eign engineers ngslnnt a lock canal.
Thu ni'Kirtof the Ixiard probably will
not be submitted to President Itooso-
velt for five or six weeks. As to tho
character of the great project, tho re
port will not bu unanimous, In fact,
two rutiorts, one by thu majority and
one by thu minority, will be submit
ted. These reports the president will
lay buforo tho canal commission and
Chief Kuglneer Stevens for considera
tion. Mr. Stevens will come to tho
United States from thu Isthmus to take
up(the subject with tho commission
and the president.
It Is conceded by thn adherents of a
ses level canal that to construct such a
waterway will cost much tnoru money
and tlmu than to build a lock canal.
It In known that In tho mind of the
president thesu are vital elements. It
Is his desire, expressed to nomu of those
who havn discussed the subject wih
him, that thu canal should bo built as
expcdlously an jtosslhle and at no great
er expense than may bo necessary to
provide a practicable waterway. Ho
has indicated to some ot those to whom
hn has talked that he personally favors
a lock canal, but he Is determined tal
ly that thu subject shall Im) considered
thoroughly from all points of view be
foru a final decision Is reached.
Mr. Stevens will leave Colon for
Washington next Thursday. Ho is
coming to glvu tho commission Infor
mation upon different phases of tho
work on the Isthmus, but more particu
larly his view as to tho tye of canal.
These views aro already known to the
ofllclals who are in charge of the canal
work, but an olllclal statement from
the engineer la desired.
Mr. Stevens told officials who recent
ly visited the canal tone that, if a sea
level canal was to be constructed, the
government ought to put boys under 20
years of age In charge of It, do that
they would last until the work was
completed. The visit of Mr. Stevens
for the especial purpose of giving his
vlewe aa to the type of canal indicates
that tho Judgment of tho consulting
board of engineers la not definitely to
determine the type, but that tho com
mission will earnestly take up tho sub
ject and make recommendations. From

SHAW WILL STAY.
Agress Not to Leavo Cabinet While
Congress Sits.
Washington, Nor. 21. Lesllo M.
Shaw will remain aa secretary of the
treasury in President Kooeevelt'a cab
inet until wio conclusion ot tho ap
proaching session of congress, and per
haps for several months longer.
It has been understood that Mr. Shaw
expected to retire from tho cabinet
bIkmiI thu first of February next, or
sooner, with a view to greater freedom
In promoting his candidacy for tho He
publican presidentat nomination in
1008, although tho secretary himself
never has announced himself to bo a
candidate.
President Roosevelt's attention was
attracted to soino recent publications
that Mr. Shaw has presented his resig
nation to taku place next February, or,
perhaps, earlier, and today ho had n
conference with tho secretary about tho
matter.

Miss Nolan had enjoyed the trip up
tho const, starting nt Portsmouth,
stopping nt Plymouth, nnd now on to
Glasgow. Life at en, even nt n sea
sou when most women aro glad to bo
snfo on laud, bad a fascination for
this girl, bred among thinkers and
scholars, cultivated women and pro
fesiitoiial men. A mnn who was nil
nctlon wna nn Interesting study to her.
That was how she put It to herself
when her ears Inclined to tho first of
ficer's liupullvi wooing. She did uot
take him seriously then. Shu hnd road
nbout sailors nnd had theories concern
ing thorn. Tho second day out sho
wrote in hor diary:
"A sailor Hfo Is so filled with perils
nnd hnrdshlps that I can hnrdly blanio
hltn If bo OH'' 1 Ids breathing space
with whatever sport comes his way
oven If thnt sport sometimes menus
playing nt 'ovo- A"y 0,nor nmn '
should despise for making n Jest of
Biich n serious mutter, but, considering
nil things, I think JncU enn b forgivou
for having n sweetheart In every port."
Mtss Nolan, llUo niiiuy nn Inexperi
enced girl, prided herself upon being
liberal nnd broad-minded,
Tho fourth day her ninry recorded:
"I bellovo ho thinks ho is In lovo
with mo, but that's absurd. How can
ho possibly enro for mu when ho doos
not know? Ilo has tho nudnclty, nlso,
to tell mo that ho Is sure thnt I lovo
him. Why, Dr. Gibson, who, father
says, Is both morally nnd Intellectually
ono of tho finest mon on oarth, ami
who has bcou paying mo attentions
for two years, would not presume to
hint nt such a thing. I think I will
marry Dr. Gibson, after all. Ilo has
such good, kind eyes. They never
mnko me feel uncomfortable.
"I wonder why I am so attracted to
him this sailor mnn? Eren before we
had spoken to one another, before tho
vessel left port, when ho wna superin
tending the stowing of the hold, I was
drawn to watch him and listen to his
masterful voice. I never saw a mnn
work like a king before. How the men
under hltn obeyed his orders. Ills
strength was frreater than any of
theirs. I don't believe they could have
hoisted those bales without bis aid.
"Then he moved with such freedom
and fearlessness, scorning tho gang
plnnk and passing from steamer to
dock and back again so quickly and
carelessly. How alert ho was to catch
the captain a commands, and what a
responsibility ho bears. Last night,
as I lay nwake, I thought of him keep
ing bis watch above with all our lives,
as It were, In his hands.
"Then, when the second mate came
to tako his place, I heard him pass my
cabin whistling cheerily, even amid
the storm and darkness. What a Hfo
his is ever contending with perils and
hardships! While Dr. Gibson Is warm
nnd safely homed, my sailor keeps his
watch, with gales howling and waves
seeking to devour. Great courage and
Iron will must undoubtedly bo his.
Yes! He Urea n man's life, no is a
man. Hut as to lore!. Oh! that ia ab
surd." It was about three-thirty In tho af
ternoon. The sea was rolling high; but
MIsa Nolan, rocked by wind nnd wave,
slept the sleep of a sea sleeper, and It
was not until a great shout went up
MIPW
overboard Just before the coming of
the mighty comber which had destroy
ed tho vessel; but Mark Hcywood, the
first officer, with whirlwind around
him and whirlpool beneath, kept hiss
clutch on M'e. How ho did It was a
miracle. Every man on. deck, includ
ing tlio threo male passengers, wna
swept away. Even the two lifeboats
had been .wrenched from their faitn
infr and smashed to atoms as they
went over tho bulwarks.
The storm subsided almost as quick
ly as It had risen; but the ship wan
slowly sinking, and Heywood'a only
chance lay in swimming to shore,
which wan about a mllo off. Ho would
tako the cnanco If some one elso
would take It with him.
The opening to the aft-companlon-wny
was near him. Ho forced himself
down, and there, under two feet of
water, found a hatchet, with which he
crawled to the deck and set to work
with desperate energy.
When Miss Nolan opened her eyee
Heywod waa tying a rope which bound
them together.
"Then it waa not you who were
swept overboard?" she cried. In great
Joy, forgetting present peril.
"No; tint was a mistake the men
made. It waa poor Brown," he re
plied. Then, lookln straight Into her
eyes, he said; "There Is to be a des
perato struggle. Tell me that you lore
rue." "I love yoa," she answered htm, "i
well that I am glad to die with you.4
The endurance nnd courage of the
mnn was put to tho severest teat, but
the shore was reached In safety,
Three months afterward they stood
In their own home aldo by side, hand
In hand. Tho bridal party had Just left,
and Jack took her In his lovlns arms.

Sho start 1 to hor feet, but fell al

cabin door nnd tried to push It open
An she did so n sen mightier than had
bcon felt before struck the ship and
capsized her.
Tho girl realized that something
terrlblo had happeued, that death was
waiting near; yet, lu this awful situa

tho Btenmer, no sign of human Hfo
around her. only the wnrrlng elements
In her oars, the only clour thought in
her mind, was that tho mnn alio loved

'iiio round of sharp blows on tho
