OF RUGS ftETURN FROM CRATER Some Impression of tho Excur sionists From Portland A member of" the Portland Crater Lake party has given the Portland Oregon iau tho following account of their trip. After giving the person nel of the party, ho says : 'It is probably tho merriest party that has ever traveled over tho hills to this great uatnral wouder of Ore gon. Leaving rortlaud Aogunt 4tn by the Southern Pacific, they wero transferred to wagons at Medford, ar riving at Crater lake ou schedule time Saturday night, August S, with tho exception of some freight. Tho long ride through the cool, enticing shadows of the yellow piuo forests was brightened by sallies aud bou mots without number, and the in spiration of the uoble canyons of the Roguo river, its waterfalls and mar velous natural bridgo brought out plaint, picturesque metaphors and curious legeuils such as might well become a permanent jiart of Pacific coast literaturo. Joaquin Miller was iu his hap piest vein, his wit and fantasy find ing fresh opportunity- to vent itself at every turu iu tho road. Dr. Hill was tho humorist of another wugou loud, a jovial giaut, bent oil seeing that everybody about him should get tho best out of his vacation. Presi dent Campbell, always a brilliant rocoiiteur, kept up a perpetual laugh at the other eud of tho cavalcade, while Seuutor Fulton's shrewd humor aud good sense gave the ueeded spice of diversity. At Eoglo Pointy 15 miles beyond Medford, there was a cnnipflro that will live long iu the memory of those who were present, Tho whole country side for miles around had assembled to do honor to tho visitors, and the stirring Intensity and lofty strain of feeling shown in tho impromptu speeches, together w ith much clever j repartee, brought out ringing up- plnusu from tho people of Eagle Poiut. Joaquin Miller gave a sup- perb tribute to Oregon for her part iu the Indian wars, placing this stitte before all othets iu thu Union for tho bravo men sho gave and tho Ore gon gnld sho coined for tho cause. The battle of Table Rock was touch ed upou with much druuiatiu feror and vivid imagery a battle in which sumo of those present had taken an activo part. A lively scramble down tiio uiossy steeps of tho picturesque little water fall ou tho country place of J. II. Stewart, of Medford, was a feature of tho next counip. This situation ill tho heart of thu forest, tho charming vistas and wild-wood glens causing Joaquin Miller to exclaim that III' ould not wish heaven itself to be more dullghtful und entrancing iu Its beautv. Tho rustio cottage with its wide vernudus was tilled with trophies of chaso and pine wood curio. The campfiru talks inspired by tho raro hospitality of tho owners were quite as notable as at Eagle Point. At tho natural bridge, where Rogue river disappears into tho living rock to como out of its prison house a foaming torrent, it wits found thai the horses, although tho best obtain able, wero not, quite equal to the tusk of currying the generous load iif tablu supplies provided by Mr. Steel up thu mountain ou schedule tune. This will explain why the company of 27 people arriving at Crater lake about sunset Sal unlay night, found, ifter wait'lig two hours, that the cook, with his supplies, was coeump d nt the base of the mountain. This necessitated a merry Hcraiuiile oi s mile down thu mountain in the moon light. But Sunday morning found all cncumix'd in good sblisi ou the rim of tho lake, engaged iu studying thu marvelous changing tints of water and risky ditf lis the sun moved westward. On Monday, August ID, a party of alsiut ople, uudi r thu guidance of C. . ii '. .

Mr. Gabls rt wasavvay from home nt the tlinu and Mrs. Gab bcrt was engaged ill combing the children's hair, when on looking around, she discovered a large snake in the risiiu. Tin reptile was making himself completely at home and seemed to thoroughly enjoy his sur roiiuilings. One or the younger children was playing on the floor iu the immediate proximity of thesiiak Mrs. Gablsrt rescued tin yoiiugslci from the uiicomlortablo situation and ailed ill a neighbor who forthwith put an end to the reptile's career. The snake had entered the sitting room from the kiteliin and was just bout to explore I he Isdlooni when calamity overtook him. How he entered the house is some what of a mystery and the only rea vuiiible explanation seems to be that he was carried into the hous" in a piece of rubber hose that the ehihlriii had been playing with. It is supposed that the reptile i rawhd inside the I lose and Vtiis carried into the honse with it. The nuke was of ihe variety known a. tho " blow snake" and was nearly four feet in length, Boy Cured of Colio After Phytician Treatment Had Tailed.
