Robert Burns, wrote nearly century ago,
that "man's inhumanity to man makes

A TRAVELLING MOUNTAIN.
Ono That Might Have Saved Mohamms
the Trouble Of journey.

Such mountain is found at the Cascades
of the Columbia, Ore 1t is huge triple
peaked mass of dark brown basalt, six or
eight miles In length, where it fronts the
river and rises to q height Of almost 1905
feet above the water. 81
That it is In motion IL the last thought
which would be likely to suggest itself to
the mind of any one passing it; yet 1t is .
well-established fact that this entire mount
ain is moving slowly but steadily toward
the river, as II it had deliberate purpose
some time In the future to dam the Column
bia and form great lake from the Cas-
cades to the Dalles. The Indian traditions
Indicate immense movements of the
mountains hereabouts, long before white
men came to Oregon; and the early settlers,
immigrants, many Of them from New En-
gland, gave the above described mountain
GUS ridge the name of travelling mount
ain" or sliding mountain"
the forests along the base Of the ridge have
become submerged in the river. Large
tree stubs can be seen standing deep In the
water on this shore. The railway engineers
and the track men find that the line Of the
railroad which skirts the foot of the mount
ain is being continually forced out of place.
At certain points the roadbed and rails
have been pushed eight or ten feet out OF
line in the course Of a few years
The mountain is manifestly moving upon
the river. and geologists attribute thfi
strange phenomenon to the fact that the
basalt which constitutes the bulk OF the
mountain rests on o substratum OF con-
glomerate, or the soft sandstone, which the
deep, swift current Of the mighty river
constantly wearing away; or that this softer
subrock is of itself yielding, at great depths
to the enormous weight Of the harde,
material above it
A ship canal and series Of very expen-
sive locks for facilitating navigation on the
Columbia have been determined on at the
Cascades abreast Of this ridge, and large
appropriations Of money from the National
treasury have been made for the work BY
Congress. II remains to be seen how
'.traveling mountain" will affect the heavy
masonry Of these structures Chicago Her.

NEW INDUSTRY.

Brooklyn Parties Buy the Former
 Porter Stair Rail Factory and Lands
 For Twenty Thousand DOllars-To
 Begin There Soon she Manufacture
 of Compressed Keasts
 The large factory buildings and lands ad-
 joining on Grand avenue, Fair Haven, com" posing the premises which were formerly oc- cupied for years by the Porter Stair Rail
 manufacturing company, has just been pur- chased of the receiver, MT. W. J. Atwater, of Atwater Block, Grand avenue, by Brook lyn parties of push, enterprise and means who will at once begin the removal there of business which they have been carrying on in Brooklyn, the manufacture of compressed yeast. The purchasers have for some time been meditating change of location for their business, their present quarters being too cramped, and after looking over the field in Brooklyn, heard of the opportunity to buy the Porter factory here. They accord- ingly visited MT. Atwater, were shown the premises and the terms and were not long in coming to conclusion in the matter. The deeds are now at the town clerks office for record. The concern expects to employ from sixty to one hundred hands in the man. ufacture of compressed yeast and will st once begin to fit up their new and larger premises. The property was bought of MT. s. L. Blstchley who owned the lands and buildings and MT. Atwater who owned the machinery. MT. Kenna, proprietor of the Selden House, made overtures for the purchase of the property several weeks ago, and began for improving the factory and putting in more machinery in order to con- tinue there the making of ornamental wood work, stair rails, etc., but failing to make the specified payments the bargain was not The property bought by the Brooklyn parties includes various large frame buildings and about five hundred feet frontage of land on Grand avenue and 400 or more on Haven street, with a similar amount on the north side of the plot; also water front. The new industry bids fair to be an additional factor of impor- tance in the further development of the of Fair Haven and of the city.
