of Fourth street and Jefferson avenue,
North Salem, say3: "Like almost all
painters my husband has been troub

put tho kidneys out of order. His
back often ached badly at night when
ho camo homo from work and when
ho caught cold it always aggravated
the trouble. Ho road an advertise

Did It With His Little Hatchet
atthefllouth of theSius-
law River Exciting
Experience
Eugene Guard special from Flor
onco: Tuesday morning L. M.
Chrlstensen, who is watching at the
govornment works at the mouth of
the river, saw four whales Insldo the
bar. They played around for awhile,
and then camo up beyond the end of
tho Jetty. Mr. Chrlstensen armed
himself with a gun, and, getting Into
his boat, proceeded to capture tho
whole herd single-handed. He pulled
around them backward and forward,
driving them before him until he had
them In tho entrance to the south
channel, when ho commenced shoot
ing at them, which frightened them
so that they mado a dash for the south
channel and landed themselves high
and dry on tho sand. They tore
around and spouted considerable, but
woro unablo to get back Into swlm
mlng water.
Finding that ho could not kill them
with his gun, Mr. Chrlstensen pro
cured a butcher knifo and a hatchet
ami again went to tho attack. His
knowledge of tho anatomy of a whale
camo in good play. Cautiously ap
proaching each victim In turn he gavo
It a vigorous slash with his hatchet,
cutting tho arter!o3 and letting them
bleed to death. In this manner he
dispatched the whole herd It was a
great undertaking, as a slight blow of
one of tho monster's tails would havo
Edit him to kingdom como in almost
no time. Tho largest Is about 25, the
tall nbout four feet wide, and the flsh
will weigh up In tho tons.
When tho tldo raised It floated them
up tho bay. Mr. Chrlstensen landed
ono just abovo tho govornment works.
After hitching onto tho largest ono he
found that ho had rathor moro than
he could manage, and the tug L. Ros-
coo came to his assistance. Taking a
lino from tho tug ho fastened It back
of tho front fins. While tho tug was
towing It nshora Mr. Chrlstenson's
boat was capsized and rolled over sev
eral time. Ho managed to keep on
top, howevor, and was rescued by tho
tug. Tho whale was landed at tho old
cannery.
