visit with his old time friend Hon. E. L.
Smith. We had the pleasure Of meeting
him, and hope Mr.. Smith may impress
upon him the necessity OF opening the
Columbia river.
Mr.. A. j. Rand informs us that he
has plenty of feed for horses and men up
at Lost lake but parties going there will
have to take their bedding. The fishing
is good and he has put one boat on the
lake and is building more The trail is
in good condition.
Friday of last week the flume from
Stoddard's mill TO the railroad caught
fire and about mile and quarter OF 1T
was burned. The fire had been burning
in the woods for some time and Friday
big tree burned off and rolled down
into the canyon setting fire to the tlume.
Mr.. -- Rand has opened his
hardware store and is stocking up in
good shape. When he gets through ar
ranging his goods he will have as neat
little store as there is in the country,
and will be ready to furnish anything in
bis line from locomotive to shingle
nail.
Mr.. Stoddard has made arrangements
to move the planer from the mill to the
railroad, and has purchased another
and larger one to be run in connection
with it. They will be placed near the
railroad track 80 that the planed lumber
can be put on the cars as it comes from
the machines.
There will be at least $500 distributed
in prizes for agricultural products at the
fair here this fall, and the exhibit ought
to be good one despite the short crops
and off year. Let every farmer bring in
the best he has anyhow, that strangers
visiting us may get an idea OF the nature
OF our products. - Wdsco San.

Rats--Cats.

One of our neighbors below town a
couple of miles, has been bothered for
some time by predatory wild cats,
which, urged on by vicious and ma
licious dispositions, and omnivorous and
gregarious appetites, made frequent and
disastrous raids upon his hen coop, and
carried off some of bis young broilers
and egg producers. He got tired, awful
tired OF It, and vowing vengeance on the
whole feline tribe, he procured shot
gun and laid for the robbers. His pa
tient waiting was rewarded and the red
faced moon glimmering through tine
dense smoke, threw the dark silhouette
of an immense cat before his vision.
The cat was a monster, and taking de-
liberate aim the veDgeful man pulled the
trigger. There was loud report, wild
howl of anguish, and then oul friend
proceeded to examine the remains,
which he finally picked up, carried
across the field, and threw over the
fence. The chickens now roost in quiet
content, our friend sleeps the Innocent
sleep OF the just, while Mrs. Hull seeks
diligently-but finds mother pet cat,
which strangely enough disappeared the
same night the wild cat was shot.

1t appears from the testimony of ex.
perts that death by electricity may not
be after all the "rock-me-t -to-seep-
mother" process that humanitarians are
looking for in the interests of murderers.
A referee has been appointed by New
York court to collect data upon this SUBJ
ject and several electricians have testi-
fed that it is the reverse OF what has
been claimed for it. Testimony of ex-
perts was introduced showing that death
by this means is uncertain, citing cases
where unconsciousness of many hours
had been followed by resuscitation and
recovery. Others described the suffer
ings of animals experimental upon to be
lingering and most intense, all of which
proves that in the effort to be merciful,
mistaken and oYer-zealous men have
been exceedingly cruel.

THE HOTEL ON MOUNT HOOD.
It ls Not Likely TO He Opened This Sea
sOn-A fine Water Supply.

The hotel on Mount Hood, near Eliot
glacier, is about completed, but it is un-
decided whether it will be opened this
season or not. The building of the
stage road from Hood River to the hotel
was an expensive job and the work ON
the hotel took longer than was expected
owing to the difficulty of getting mater
ial up to so great an elevation. After
the road was completed large band OF
sheep was driven up into the mountains
over it and in their scrambling along the
steep hillsides above the road TO feed
they rolled great lot of limbs, stones
and treetops down into the road, render
ing it impossible for vehicles, and put
ting the company to considerable ex-
pense in getting it cleared out. The
sheep men have been arrested and an
effort will be made to recover damages
from them 1t has been concluded that
the hotel is too small and an addition is
talked of. The water supply of the
hotel comes from the melting ice of the
glacier, and is brought in through pipes.
A bottle of it has been sent to this city.
1t is as clear as crystal. The bottle was
labeled "Water supply of Cloud Cap
Inn, 1900 feet above sea level. Gravity
system twenty feet higher than roof OF
inn. No bonds no veto; cold as ice. !"
1t will probably be decided in day or
two whether the inn will be opened this
season or not. Next summer when the
big hotel is running here it is expected
that great many of the guests will
visit Cloud Cap Inn, and if an addition
is not built this season it will surely
have to be built then. Oregonian.

Rocky MOUNT, N. O., Nov. Is, SO.
ME-. EDIToR:-Juvenile Alliance
met last Saturday in regular session.
There were about seventy-fve per
cent. of the members present.
Harmony and good will prevailed
among the brethren and sisters OF this
Alliance, which indicates to me that
we are true to the bone and have come
to stay. I think we have some as
true Alliance men as there are in the
Old North State. We are composed
mostly of one horse farmers and do
our own work. We have some very
fine tobacco land, but did not plant
much this year, but will put III
more another year if nothing pre-
vents. We have some men in our
lodge who are in good circumstances,
and are able to run this lodge if they
will put their shoulder to the wheel.
We had our first cotton sale in
Rocky Mount last Thursday week.
There were ninety-six bales sold at n
time to the highest bidder. We got
cne-eighth nor by selling IN. bulk,
which amounted to the small sum of
$48 gain to the farmers, and had the
weighing attended to by Alliance
men. w. 81. WoRsLEY.
