opinion that the codifed laws which
were being prepared by the city at
torney should be about completed
and urged the immediate completion
of the same. Considerable discus
sion was had over the matter but
no action was taken, yet strong
hint was left that the council was
getting anxious for the laws to be
before them.
There being no further business
the council adjourned to meet at
the next regular session.

that many are jubilant over the
fact that water is again plentiful.
Much credit is due Manager Martin
for the precautions he has used in
this trying time. The shaft is still
leaking but a good force Of men are
manning the pumps and will sue
ceed in keeping It comparatively
dry. Mr.. Martin informed a JOUR-
NAL reporter this afternoon that
when the boiler was reset In the
spring It would be placed so that no
flood like the one just on would
have any chance Of putting stop
to the works.

cost much less per thousand for Its
circulation than any method OF
distributing circulars. II a trades
man could get his circulars free he
could not get them before the pub

have their use, and there lis no argu-

ALLTHAT's LEFT.

The above Is pen sketch of the
big Willamette bridge as it now APP
pear after the food has played hav-
oc with 1t. The sketch was taken
from a position at the foot OF Che
meketa street looking westward,
the two break waters are seen on
the right and in the center is a small
section of the western approach.
On the extreme left Is the barn of
Mr.. Matheny, which has 30 tar sue
cessfully withstood the pressure OF
the flood. Just to the left Of the
second breakwater and to the right
Of the standing section of the ap-
proach can be seen few bents of
the approach near the two large
cottonwood trees. This was the first
part OF the bridge TO weaken and fall.
II fell at just las p m Monday.
As can be seen from the sketch very
little is left Of the $4,000 bridge.
The sketch was made by Mr.. Clyde
Cooke and the engraving by his
brother Gay Cooke, and speaks well
for these gentlemen as artists.
A WEAK POINT.
One Of the weakest points about
the late lamented bridge WAS the
fact that at high water it was not at
right angle with the river current.
The result was, all the drift struck
the break-water obliquely, and thus
had much greater force IN destroy
ing IL than II It had struck squarely
from above.
sNYDER's BOTTOM.
A gentleman just in from Sny-
der's bottom says that several houses
in that section haye been washed
away, and that many Of those stand
ing are barely above water, and that
the loss ofstock will be considerable.
TO INpEPEpENCE.
The Bentley, under command OF
Capt. Scott, went to Independence
this morning with four tons Of -four
for the food suffers. He brought
back with him the Russell-Jewell
theatrical troupe.
LIGHTS SOON.
Mr.. Holman thinks that by Sat
urday night should the river con-
tinue to fall as 1t has all day, that
he will have the lights running as
usual, which will be hailed with
! delight.

THE FURNITURE OPENING.
An Old and Reliable Salem FIRE
Open an Elegent Store to the
Public.

This morning G. L. Keller q Sons
opened the doors Of their new store
on corner OF Commercial and Che
meketa. The building is in the new
Exchange block and presents
solid appearance. Their store room
is 9Ox36, with plate front, side and
rear lights, and a wide deck running
clear around half way up to the "
foot high ceiling, making 1t as hne
a furniture room, size and light con-
sidered, as there il in the state
With such a store, and the stock
that was show q JOURNAL reporter,
no one need send north, south or
east to buy the finest grades OF FUR
niture, or artistic house furnishings
Keller & Sons will keep about a
SlO,O stock, when they have In
in their stock Of carpeting and other
lines which they will carry.
A glance from the deck reveals as
rich a view of choice selections OF
modern furniture as can be spread
before the eye. There are sets
ranging from S75 to IT'S; uphoslster'
I'd sets of five or six pieces in tap
estry and plus hcs-no two shades
alike in the same set, giving that
degree Of variety and oddity so
much desired at present.
The most fashionable woods now
run to cherry and mahogany, solid
oaks and mostly designed in antique
styles. There is great variety OF
parlor and card tables, all new and
fanciful, yet retaining solidity and
real worth. The shOwy shams are
sought to be excluded from this
stock. There is a full line Of chif-
foniPrs, secretaries, and artistic
side-boards.
Office desks and furniture will
be a speciality with this firm.
Their assortment at present is quite
complete, with more on the way.
The deck floor is packed with staple
articles of the palmer and cheaper
sort, and includes nearly everything
needed in home, Including full
supply of beddings, mattresses, rugs,
etc. The firm inform us that they
propose to go to manufacturing con-
siderable in the line of mattresses and
ticks at an early day. Connected
with this, we are informed that they
have arranged for II well-equipped
upholstery and repair department.
The front show-windows are very
attractive. They are about 10 feet
deep by l5 wide, hung with lace
curtains, richly carpeted, and the
display Of artistic furniture and
household decorations is extensive.
PAstelles in sterling silver frames,
standard works OF art in copper
silver-metallic, bronze and oxide
frames, rockers and standing mir
rors in white and gold, so fashion
able now everywhere. Another Of
the numerous novelties is engrav-
ings in FURNISHED and burnt oak,
cherry and mahogany frames.
The number Of visitors in spite OF
food excitement was large and the
show windows drew a continual
crowd of spectators. The store and
stock are an honor to the city and
county. Mr.. G.. l.. Keller has been
in business in this city for many
years. His sons II. p, and +. p
Keller, have also been in the grocery
business and are also well and favor

preservation, and to be a Lutheran Bible,
published in Amsterdam in 1869 by s. Des
SIarets, professor OF theology in one of the
universities of Holland, and his son, who
styles himself "a minister of the gospel. 1t
is a French version of the Scriptures. and
illustrated. There is much room for specu-
lation as TO its original owner. The fact
that 1t was enclosed IN a wooden box appa-
rently made for itself, but roughly and has
tily put together, would seem TO point
rather to the conclusion that it was pur-
posely buried by the owner, who had some
urgent reason for SO doing. There were not
few Huguenots among the early settlers
of New France, and, though history is
silent as to his name, 1t is well known that
that there was Lutheran minister with
Louis Kertk when he occupied Quebec from
1929 to 1858, and that many of the French
Protestant colonists entered the English
service during his occupation. 1t is true
that this Bible was only published some
forty years afterward in the time of De
Frontenac, Talon and Bishop Laval, but it
is not at all impossible or improbable that
it may have belonged to some one who saw
Kertk, or to an immediate descendant. if
not brought into the country by some later
arrival of the same faith. At all events,
there appears to be an interesting nut in the
matter for our historians and antiquaries to
try to crack.

Love Tragedy in Bucharest.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.

A Bucharest correspondent states that
society at Bucharest has been much moved
by the tragic incidents connected with the
double suicide that has just taken place. A
daughter of an ex-minister, married to a
doctor in Moldovia. sought and obtained a
divorce. Her and an officer in the artillery,
Capt. C., had become very strongly at
tached to each other, and after all the
formalities of the divorce had been gone
through, Capt. G. sought and obtained
the kings consent to his marriage with
Nine. N. The wedding day was fixed,
and all seemed bright and promising,
when Bucharest was one morning panied
aud astonshed to learn that
Nine. N had put an end to her life Just
prior to the wedding the discovery was
made and revealed to the unfortunate lady
that blood relationship existed between
herself and her lover that proved bar to
their marriage. Since Nine. Ms death
the captain has been in despair, visiting
her tomb twice daily, and saying to his
comrades that he should soon be with the
object of his love. On Friday morning his
orderly, going to wake him to go on duty,
found his master lying dead. 1t seems he
had taken strong dose of poison. By the
side Of lis bed was volume of poems with
