No body outside of the four walls of the board room cared whether stocks went up down.

At one time Oregon Tranaconsi- mental sold down to 54 and Northern Pacihs to 60; Ar matter of fact these prices were about the bes' thas the end of the day offered, everything closing greatly depressed That the market has been deugao with Northsrn Pacific preferred and Oregon Trans continental shares is too obvious to be denieo Whence the supply came is matter of doubt

,S47, when he carried the news of the
Cayeuse outbreak In Oregon and the Whit
ney massacre overland TO Washington.
Meek was the originator of the 'Guyascu-
tus, which you have often heard of, no
doubt. His friends at the trading-posts IN
Missouri used 20 joke with hun a good
deal when he came in with his loads of
furs, and Joe resolved to get even with
them, So, next time he came IN, he told
wonderful story of strange, fierce ant
mal, half grizzly. half human, which he
had captured and brought with him, but
he would let nobody see it until certain
day, when he proposed TO hold public
exhibition. He rented an old log church
for ;he purpose, and when the time came
1t was filed with people at two bits head.
Joe had curtain fixed up, behind which
the audience could hear a great growing
and rafting of chalus, and his first per-
Torrance was to open all the doors and
windows, telling the people that the guy
ascutus was such a strong and terrible
beast he could not guarantee that Its chains
would hold il, therefore he thought II
best TO provide for their escape at any
moment. This done, he went behind
the curtain, smtared his face and dabbled
his lsir with blood, which he had ready
IN bucket, while his assistant began a
furious growing and bowling. Sudden
ly Joe tiew out from behind the curtain,
the very picture of fright, and shouted,
Save yourselves The guyascutis has
broken loose OF course the audience
tumbled out, without waiting TO hear
more, while Joe made his escape, but he
told IRE five years after that he did not
dare go back TO that town for fear he
would be shot ON sight
