0In country WITHOUT uieir presence be-

man has ever ascertained that il did
not exist. White men, too, have only
vague accounts of any white man hav.
ing ever passed through this country,

they have only traversed its outer
edges.
The most generally accepted theory
in regard 10 this country is that it on
sisted OF great valleys, stretching from
the inward slopes of the mountains 10
a great central basin. This theory is
supported by the fact that. although
the country around has abundant rain
and clouds constantly hang over the
mountain tops, all the streams flowing
toward the four points of the compass
are insignificant and rise only on the
outward slopes of the range. none ap.

To support the theory that streams
lowing from the inner slopes Of the
mountains feed a great interior lake.
But what drains this lake. Ii must

must have a s~ubterrancan outlet 10 the

Information About tho Pioneer Who
Was Found Dying Alone.
CHATCoLET, Idaho, Sept. IL.
To THE EDITOR OF THE REVIEW
In looking through the REVIEW
of the 10th find an article headed
"Found Dying Alone"
1 think this man, whose name
you gave rs Traustlc, Is the same
person who has been at this place
during the spring aud summer, and
known as Dick Truesdale. He Is
about six feet in height, and very
old and feeble, and while here
fished for living. He was lame In
one arm, which he told me was in
jured by u blast in the mines,
think at Wardner. On inquiry
find that he was an old pioneer and
steamboat man In Oregon. Oh
course, this Is hearsay. but may
help any relatives that he may have
to know the fate of II wanderer on
the sea of humanity.
Yours respectfully,

UNDER THE WHEELS
A Greek Woman Killed at the
Post Street Crossing on
the N. p.
Conflicting Testimony Developed
at the Inquest--The Body
Terribly Mangled.

About $40 o'clock Saturday
morning Nina Arnengo, u Greek
woman, was run over and killed by
train on the Northern Pacific
tracks at the crossing of Post street.
The woman, who IL peddler,
was accompani led by another woman
of the same nationality. They were
crossing the track when the victim
was struck and knocked under the
car, the trucks of which passed over
her legs and mangled them so badly
that death was almost instantaneous.
Her companion was also struck, but
fortunately was thrown OH the side
of the track and out Of reach of the
wheels.
During the occurrence n gentle
man, whp was waiting for the cars
to pass at the time, endeavored to
rescue the victim and pulled her
from under the cars just in time to
prevent the second car from passing
over her.
1t seems that the two women
were ut the time crossing the track
from the southwest corner Of Rail-
road avenue and Post street, and
were going toward the northwest
corner, they apparently not seeing
the approaching train, as they both
wore slinbonnets. They either did
not hear, or heedlessly disregarded
the warning cries of Mike Clark, the
| flagman, who at the time was
standing near the switch on the
west side of Post street. AT the time
the cars were being switched from
the south to the north track, and the
engine had released the cars after @
violent push, aud they could not
have been stopped, even If the
brakeman who was on top had seen
the women.
The remains were taken to the
undertaking establishment of Hall
Il Noble, where an inquest was held
at IL o'clock.
The following jurors were inn
paneled: Sam Stearns, A. l.. Bar
man, G.. Il. Porter, j. G. Dudley,
Charles King and j. +. LeghOrn.
The testimony was very conflict
ing. The railroad employees testified
that the woman was in the middle
of the street when the accident oc-
Cured, while her companion said
she was on the sidewalk when
struck by the car.
Coroner Weems, in conducting
the inquest, showed an unusual
fitness for his position, and the man
ner of questioning the witnesses and
carefully ei.citing all possible facts
The verdict was: That Nina
Arnengo met her death while cross
ing the railroad track on Post street
in the city of Spokane Falls, about
$50 A. NJ, September 20, 1890.
The dead woman resided it
Shantytown with her husband, 4
laborer.
