John Mlnto Believes Stork Can
Driven Over Mountains.
Albany John Mlnto, of Halem, one
of the pionuer in the Hantlam moun
tain dlHtrlct of Oregon, 'Will in a lew
day head a party from the end of the
Corvalli at Faitern railroad, on tlie
north fork of the Kantiam river, in
quest of a shorter route to (jonnect the
railroad with the Deschutes country in
KaHtern Oregon.
Mr. Mlnto ha long entertained the
Idea that there I a pan through the
Cascade mountain at thla point where
it would Ik possible to construct a trail
for driving atock overland from the
Kuntem Oregon ranges to the tauten)
end of the Corvalli A Ksstern line
He ha interested Manager Kdwln
Stone, of the Corvalli & Kaalern, In
the work, and an effort to lay out the
route of the proponed route will lie
made in a few day.
The old Mlnto trail, which esUnnds
from the end of the old railroad grade
to the Kastern Oregon country, ha
!een used for year by thone who know
the nliort cut that connect the weatern
and eantern part of the nlate. Hut
Mr. Minto i tatinfled that there i a
ahorter cut yet, and that it could be
made of great aervice to the stockrais
era of Eantern Oregon in ehlpping their
tock to market.

at work building a tramway and fur

Old Metal la TJe4 I tee Cowtrmctlon
of Railway Freight Car.
Old ecrap Iron, lying In heap and
nittng away under tha Influence of
ihm weather, tin a been utilized by a
strt railway company In a Weetern
town. It baa been found that rrora
thla material can be secured much
better axlea than tboa purchaaed In
the market or that can be obtained
from rolled bar Iron, lnatead of dls-
ponlng of all scrap to a Junk dealer,
aa la usual, the metal la aorted Into
several gradea, caat Iron, wrought iron
or steel. Tart of thla la then disposed
of through the regular channela, but
the No. 1 and No. 2 wrought Iron ecrap
la aet aside for the manufacture or
axlea. The several plecea, which are
of all alxe and aim pes, are arranged
In binder, made of bent plecea of
scrnp plute. eight lnchea thick and
alxteen inches long, which la not too
large to be conveniently handled.
Thene bundlea of ecrap are then
atored until needed. A reverleratory
furnace, heated by oil, which la made
economically poanlhle by the cheap
lien of fuel oil ou the Pacific coast.
la employed for beating theae bundle
of scrap to a welding heat, for forg
ing by a steam hammer Into alaba.
About twelve bundlea are worked at a
heat and when each lnsuea from under
the 8,800-pound ateam hammer the
volume la reduced more than balf,
there only remaining a alab nix lnche
by two lnche and three feet six lnche
long. Three of theae alaba are then
welded together to form the amalleat
alxe axle. After being worked to the
oroDer shape the rough ends re cut
oft and finished in lathe to dim en
alon sizes.
The car company official assert
that the axlea thua produced from
scrap are cheaper and possess a great
er ductility and better fiber than any
axle they can purchase. Incidental
to the procea the flue heat from the
furnace la panned through a waate
heat boiler that produces sufficient
ateam to operate three ateam hammer

London, July 20. Two naval order
were Inmied today by the British ad
miralty, which are believed to indicate
a determination on the part of Great
Britain to protect British ehlpping
from acta of aggression at the hand of
the Russian navy.
The first order directs the Mediter
ranean fleet to sail at once from Qib
ralter and proceed to Alexandria.
Egypt, near the mouth of the 8uez
canal.
The second order directs two of the
fastest British armored cruiser to pro
ceed through the canal and take np
stations in the lied sea at points where
several British ships have been held up
the last few days by the vessels of the
Russian volunteer squadron.
While the fact that these orders were
Issued was carefully guarded, and no
public statement of their scope is pro
curable, there is no doubt that the
British foreign office baa decided that
the time has come to act promptly in
protecting British shipping, and to put
an end to any aggression on the part of
the Russian cruisers. Well informed
naval officers believe that the dispatch
of this powerful Mediterranean fleet to
the vicnity of the Ked sea, ana the sta
tioning of two of the crack vessels of
the squadron directly in at the points
where the Russians are carrying things
with a hitch hand, means that no furtb
er molestation of vessels flying the
British flag will be permitted.

Canine Are Killed If They Are Found

In Egypt dogs are never permitted
to enter the dwelling bouse ot a Mo
hammedan, and If ons la found in a
mosque he la immediately put to
death. In consequence of this ex
communication from the society which
this animal seem so instinctively dis
posed to cultivate, Egyptian dogs lira.

filth that chance throws In their way.
Yet they are found to ba faithful pro
tectors of tha property and even per
sons of the very men by whom they
are thus deapltefully treated, although,
Sonlnl remarks, it is extremely curious
to see the pains taken by a Mussulman
and a dog wben .they happen to meet
to avoid coming In contact with each
other. Notwithstanding this state of
persecution, dog are remarkably nu
merous In the town of Egypt The
species Is a large one, about the size
and make of the greyhound. As
proof of the Mohammedan prejudice
against thla useful animal, It Is suffl
clent to state that they regard the
terms Christian and dog as synony
mous both, of course, In the most op
probrlous sonae. A a singular con
trast for their dislike for dogs, the
Egyptians have ever held cats In great
est veneration, and in ancient time
even worshiped them. And historian
tell us that Bubaitig and Atrlbes, two
town In Egypt, the former a votary of
cats and the latter of mice, contracted
on that account so strong an antlpa
thy to each other that the Inhabitants
were never known to Intermarry, al
though only a few miles asunder. In
some parts of India, too, we are told,
they have a almllar reverence for

"After the occupation by uenerai
Knrcki's army of the passes in the Fen-
hui mountain chain, onr information
concerning his disposition was, in gen
eral, inadtquate.
According to some reports his army
bad been reinforced and had even ex

Other reports said that a displacement
of his troops had been made in toe ai

the crest of tne mountains to the east
of the heinhta surmounted by the tern

rifle and artillery fire.
"General Kashtalinsky advanced to
occupy t,he bluffs, sending forward at
once one and then three battalions, but
the attempt failed, notwithstanding
the support given by the horse moun

An Ada mleae Eden Is said to exist
somewhere In tha Caribbean Sea, but
Just where It Is located no one 1s able
to tell. There Is an old legend in tne
West Indies which has been handed
down from the time of Columbus to
the effect that somewhere among the
numerous cays of the Caribbean Sea
there exists an Island Inhabited only
by women.
The aboriginal Caribs ana Arar-
waka found It Inconvenient to nave
women around in times of wan. US'
ually when the enemy conquered a
number of the tribe's fairest maidens
were carried off. So goes the story,
The deplorable possibility of losing
all the women of the tribe was avert
ed, however, by the prompt action of
the chiefs, who ordered all of the re
maining female element to this un
known island In the Caribbean. Ac
cording to the legend the place Is co
piously watered by ldesl streams,
overshadowed by breadfruit, mango,
plantain and all the necessaries to life
and poetry. The husbands and lovers
were allowed to visit the Island not
mare than twice a year In times of
peace.
But It is further handed down that
all the men of th tribe were eventual
ly wiped out In an Indian war, and
that all trace of tha isle of women
was lost. According to Washington
Irving, even Columbus made vain ef
forts to find It
