Tlio following bit of description of .straight
Oregon scenery Is taken from an ar- terrific force.
ttclo written by J. H. Cradlebaugh,
of Tho Journal staff, for an Eastern
publication, It belnjg one of a series
of articles on Oregon written by htm
for tho Eastern press:
A description of Oregon scenery
might well cause one much abler
than myBolf to hesitate long before
unlortaklng It. Oregon is so big,
so grand, so beautiful that ono rea-
rlbbed channel with
The river Is liter
ally tAirned on edge, and Its vast vn!
umo rushes through a channel only
80 feet In wlUh. Just below Is the
beautiful little city of Tho Dalles,
the site of the old Indian village of
Wlshram, described by Washington
Irving in his "Astoria." Tho rlvtr
hero half a mllo wide and 150 feet
llzos the Tiamclty of language and tho deep sweeps In a great curvo
Inadequacy of words Jn attempting Grandly Into tho mighty gorge it haa
to tell of it.
Cutting tho state into two dls
tlnct sections, tho Cascade moun
worn through tho mountain range.
Tho hills rise on either side higher
and higher; tho bluffs of columnar.
Nothing bespeaks tho liberality
and substantiality of a progressive
community so well as tho fact that
perfect strangers can come here, bo
mado wolcomo, got Into a email busi
ness and build It up to largo propor
tions in a few years. Whllo they are
not tho only ones who havo done
theso things, McEvoy Brothers, of tho
Chicago Store, aro striking examples
to attest tho fact abovo stated. From
a small cubby-hoio, crammed wnn
cheaper grades of goods, on Court
street, with ono clerk, thoy havo ex
panded in a fow years to a largo
corner storo on Commercial street,
175 feet deep, and occupying two
floors, and part of it with threo

stock well supplied, maintain a

schomo of conciliation was formed.
Of tho 7248 cases sottled by con
ciliation boards in tho last ten years,
only 92 (or about 1 per cent) wore
preceded by a Btoppago of work.
Most of tho boards provided that all
their decisions or the awards of their
arbitrators shall bo final and binding
and a fow go further and Impose a
money ponnlty for breach of agree
ment or award.
This penalty has In ono or two
cases boon onforcod, not only on tho
employers, but on tho men.
Following upon tho recent confer
ence In London between tho various
European marl tlmo employers' fed
erations, steps are now being taken
fixed upon tho block in rondlnoss to
rocolvo tho now bow for which nho
had been waiting bo long. Fom
squnro logs -10 foot long had been
fastened to tho plates of tho after
part of tho ship for tho purposo of
regulating tho dlstnnce. Whon the
bow was admitted to tho basin tho
mo3t enroful handling wns impera
tive, but tho bow wns accurately
contorod nnd pulled Into position by
tho aid of her own stenm wlnchot,
and careful mcnsuromontB then re
EMlted In thp satisfactory anuounco
montB that It had been worked Into
tho oxnet position required. If the
I least miscalculation had been mado
jit would havo boon nocossnry to r
I float tho bow and perform tho doll-
cato feat anow.
It Is oxpected that tho work of
uniting tho two portions of the ship
will bo completed within two rnonthR
Tho first work to bo done will be to
remove from tho bow a number of
temporary plates which wero put on
to glvo tho necessary talghtness to
lt during tho tow from Belfast. For
theso regular lengths of plato will bo
substituted and tho work will then
proceed on moro or less normal lines.

An unprecedented feat ln what
may bo termed "ship surgery" wus
brought to a stage nearer successful
completion yesterday when tho two
parts of tho severed Suevlc, old and
new, wero brought Into exact Juxta
position at Southampton and now
only remain to bo securely -riveted
and plated and hammered together.
It was in tho middle of March that
the big Whlto Star liner, a vessel of
over 12,500 tons register, was wreck
ed on the Lizard and tho foro part
of tho ship broko clean away. The
after part was brought safely to
Southampton and a new forepart was
above. Each player has, tnereiorc,
24 combatants at his disposal.
The moves are extensions of the
present moves to the conditions of
tho cube. Tho rooks, for Instance,
can mount from ono board to an
other along verlcal lines only, the
bishops only on diagonals.
The queen can Jump from one cor
ner of tho lowest board to apy of
tho other boards on vertical or tllag
onal lines. Tho knight, cannot climb
or descend more than two boards
in his own peculiar way. Tho moves
of the king and pawns cannot exeed
moro than ono board, and they must
choose between changing boards and
changing squares on the same board.
Dr. Maack's invention has not been
received with entire good humor by
chess players. Somo of them write
to the papers that tho game wa3
enough for tho ordinary brain al

tho king climb out of check by get
