last fall on the solicition of friend from

Railroad construction during 1882 is likely
to equal if not exceed the great mileage of
last year. Already over 500 miles of new
road have been built, against less than 200
miles completed at the corresponding time
in 1881. Of the total mileage this year a
large proportion will be in the region be-
tween the Missouri river and the Pacific
coast.

lygamists and will wipe out their brutal in
stitution. That the new law can be peace
ably enforced is by no means certain.

the search in which he is now engaged he
was without hope of finding his comrades
alive but simply to perform the melancholy
duty OF discovering, if possible, their dead
bodies, and whatever traces of their hard
ships and mementees they might have left

One of our exchanges aptly says:
We all think that the persons who
came to this country from twenty to
thirty years ago were pioneers and
old settlers, and some people can
hardly believe 1t possible that they
were not among the first. Now and
then, however, we meet an individ-
ual who has been in Oregon, WASH
ington or British Columbia for forty
years, and ut longer intervals fifty
years. The majority of the survivors
of the days Of a half century ago, II
not oil Of them, are ex-employees OF
the Hudson Bay Company. The old
est Of these, and the one longest in the
country, we suppose, is John Todd, of
Victoria, who IS years ago, when a
boy Of fifteen, entered the employ of
the Hudson Bay Company, and who
In their service came across the con-
tinent in 1912. He was q Hudson
Bayman for seventy years, the scrip
ural time allotted man for his entire
existence. Mr.. Todd, though still
alive, is In feeble health, and may not
survive the present year.

A striking proof of the truth of the
old saying that the crops never fail in
Oregon, is furnished by the announce
ment that there were fourteen chill
dren born in the town of Pendleton
last week. When it is taken into
consideration that the population of
that place is considerable less than
one thousand the rate of increase is
remarkable.

Piute Indians.

A young brave takes notion to mar.
~ young girl. but cannot do SO until
lie has been defined. The woman re-
moves from the rest of the family to q
small wickeup, or lodge, where she re-
mains one month by herself, abstaining
from flesh and living on seeds or ber-
ries. She must be very Industrious dur.
ing that time, going out every morning
at daybreak to gather wood and logs,
which she arrays in five different piles.
This labor is repeated at noon and ct
shutdown. Every five days she is &C.
knowledged by the other women and
men to be young lady ready to marry.
and at these times the wood is set on
fire, she jumping over the piles while
they are burning. Eating, . drinking
and dancing are indulged in every fifth
day. Then at the end Of the moth she
returns to her father, casting away all
her old clothing, and appealing before
her parents in new robes made of buck
skin. -is-'' -
The ceremony of courtship,ri is as fol-
lows: The brave seeks thetf place
where the Indian maiden is at rest. IF
she discovers him. she getszup and
goes away. He never foliowszher, but
comes again the following hight, and
SO on indefinitely. Then when her pa
rents give consent to their marriage,
she is given feast, at which he is in
vited to partake. At no other time is
he allowed to eat with the family. The
ceremony of marriage is very simple.
Tho JoIx- ho =
a dish. He takes it and sets it down !;
then the are considered man and wife.
They remove to lodge by themselves,
if able; if not, they remain in their
fathers lodge. When the first child is
born. they go by themselves and work
for others. remaining that way one
month. They do not eat meat of any
kind during this period, and battle
every five days. After that they return
to their old home again. Deformed
children among this people are almost
unknown.
Cooking is performed in willow bas-
kets woven so tight as to hold water.
Seeds are ground between two stones.
A fire is built, and small stones are
thrown into it. When hot, these are
dropped into the basket that contains
the water, causing it to boil; when the
meal is stirred in, and hot rocks con-
tinually thrown in until the mush il
cooked. Meat for stews and soups are
cooked In the same manner In early
times meat vas generally eaten in this
way, and the use of salt was not known
until after the advent of the white
man.
Virtue was o quality whose absence
was punished by either by burn
ing alive or stoning to death. Ny peo-
pie are not SO severe in these later
days. The ceremony of marriage is not
SO strictly carried out as in olden times.
They take women now without much
ado, as white people do, and leave them
oftener than of old. One of the latest
evidences Of civilization is divorce-an
indulgence taken advantage of to aban-
don an old wife and secure young one.
They argue that it is better for them to
do SO than to leave their young women

KILLED HY THE CAKS.
HenrJ Trennetf. % Car 1tslsairsr, Instantly
Killed While Working Beneath q Freight
Car ia South MINNEAPOLIS.

Henrg Treanetf. Is Car 1tsl'airsr, Instantly
Killed While Working Beneath q freight
Car iM South Minneapolis.
At about noon yesterday Henry Trsn-
nett. car repairer in the employ of tae
Chicago, Milwaukee l. st. Paul Rail-
way company, met with fatal
accident. He, together with another
employe, was sent to the South Ainneaps-
lis yards of the road to put bolt in the
brake under one of the freight cars.
There. were thirty cars in the line
upon the side track. The car to be re-
paired was one of the number. The COM
rade suggested that signal flag should be
put at the end of the train before going
under, to prevent the switch engine from
backing down upon them. Trennett
thought it would be unnecessary. 1t would
only take minute to put in the bolt. He
thought he could complete the job before
| a flag could have been put up and before a
switch engine could back ~ and
place him in any danger.
Accordingly he went under the car, while
his comrade was near by. The work of
putting in the bolt occupied much more
time than it was anticipated, yet neither OF
the workmen were at ell afraid of an acct
dent, until, before they were aware of it,
the switch engine backed down the side
| track again1t the train of box cars, moving
them up the track several feet.
Trennett was caught beneath the brake
beam and instantly killed. His comrads
gave the alarm, and a number of train
men at once came up, and after consider
able delay succeeded in extricating the
| body, which was at once taken to
the depot. The coroner being no.
titled of the casualty, promptly
repaired to the depot and
after making an investigation of the 70
mains instigated post norton e1amina-
ton. .
The autopsy was conducted by Drs. Hill
and Simpson, which revealed the fact that
shock. The body WAS not badly crushed
or mutilated in the accident however.
Ascertaining the fact that all the employees
of the railroad had received the most sx-
plicit orders never to 60 beneath car
without having placed signal flag at
either end of the train or car under which
he was to work, the coroner concluded that
4 the company was not responsible in any
wise fer the casualty. and decided that an
inquest was unnecessary.
| The body was taken home to Milwaukee
last evening for burial.
Henry Trennett was young man. TWEEN.
| ty-four years of age, Irish by birth, and
unmarried. He had been in the employ o.
the railroad company as car repairer
about six weeks.

THE STATE RESTED
at the conclusion of Gates testimony. The
defense introduced Henry Keirce, one Of
the boys in the party, who called out to the
three men; he testified as follows:
We saw three men coming up the street
one was buttoning up his clothes; 1 called
out:
''HALLoA PARTNER.
what's the matter:'' One big fellow said he
had bugs; another said he had worms; we
all laughed; that made them mad; the one
who had ireman's clothes said ''Co-1ie On

thsss Buys can pick the bags of; they
came back: the fireman said, II suppose
the big boys have put up the little fellers
to pick the bugs off US; no one said any
thing to him: he come up to me; Il jumped
back and fell down; the big man
kicked ne in the side when I was down: |
got up and ran down the street; one man
followed up Garrigan; Garrigan said: Il
don't want anything to do with you;'' the
man
KNOCKED CARDIGAN INTO HOLE.
and jumped in upon him: 1 ran
around the block: when I came
back the man had been hit.
John HanIey, Ed. Conery and Joe Con-
cry each testified to about the same as did
Henry Keirce, only that Joe Conery &C
knowledged that
HE SAW TIE CLUB
after the blow had been struck; none Of the
boys saw the blow struck.
Henry Upton, who lives on the East side,
also testified on the part of the defense:
Was coming up Marshall street about
Z 30 o'clock Sunday night; saw three men
about two blocks away; one was in front
of the cooper shop; one was on
a barrel or hogshead; the
three were hallowing and making
a big noise: they appeared to be very
drunk; they staggered about after the man
had got down from the hogshead; don't
really know whether
THEY WE'RE DRCaK
or were playing drank; they staggered
badly; block away were a number of boys
in front of Labelle's house; wbe1 the three
men came up; a quarrel ensued; ooulda't
tell exactly what was done: saw one b g
man knock boy
INTO HOLE
and he and another man went into the
hole after him; few minutes later they
cameout; fought in the street; they Pc:
haps were III the hole only minute; saw
men strike and kick the boys and saw one
boy fall in the street; when he got up he
held club with which he knocked one of
the men down.
The examination will be continued to-
day.
