There was Il family of five persons

A Way to Surely Pre:e 1t the Gazing in

The frequent and serious difficulty
experienced in the operations o: tun-

surface after the completion OF the
work, has lately been found to be pre-
ventable by a simple system resorted
to by a London contractor, by the Use
OF which no ground outside tie actual
section OF the subway in hand need
be disturbed. The system in question
comprises a series OF steel bars p,aced
side by side with the excavation, so as
to form 3 complete temporary lining
and support to the roof. aid within
this series OF bars the permanent brick
arch OF tho tunnel is built. The bars
used in this work are ten feet long, six
inches vide, and two inches thick.
being provided at their edges with
longitudinal grooves, by means Of
which each is linked to the next one
in such a way as to admit Of separate
Longitudinal motion, and yet to pre-
vent lateral separation. The bars are
inserted in the same manner as we'll

The bars are provided with longitude

Winter ia tine E'ar :, est.

The climate Of both Oregon and
Washington is mild and equa5le. In
western Oregon and Washington it is
difficult to draw the lines that divide
the seasons. writesSenator Doiph in the
Forum. Winter is usually a wet season,
but there are often long periods of per-
fa"t weather in February ard March.
Flowers frequently bloom in the open
air in January, and green fields OF
growing grass and grain may be seen
al winter. Once or twice during the
. winter a few inches of snow falls, but
it disappears rapidly. At intervals OF
several years occurs a winter with ten
| days or two weeks OF freezing weather
and a considerable fall of snow. The
| summers are cool, and excessive heat
is unknown. In eastern Oregon and
Washington the climate is different.
The dry season of summer is more pro-
tracted. the rainfall is less, and the
heat is greater. though it IS eve ex-
cessive. The winters are colder. but
of short duration; the snowfall is light
and seldom lies long in the valleys.
and live stock ranges on the plains all
winter, thriving on the natural grasses
without food, except when the SNOW is
unusually deep or the cold period I'M
usually protracted.

According to a writer in the Ameri-

%et1icacious method of thoroughly clean

that have become gummed and dirty
BY the use of fat oils for l%ubricating
purposes is as follows: Make a strong
soda I've by taking for each one thou
sand parts by weight of caustic soda,
or hundred parts ordinary soda;
this solution to be allowed to boil and
enter the parts to be cleansod, for this
purpose either boiling them in the lye
or having them steep in it for some
time. In this manner all the dirt and
oil resin are completely dissolved. it
only remaining to rinse and dry the
parts treated. The action of the I've,
under these circumstances, is such
that it enters into combination with
tho oil and forms a soap. which is
readily soluble in water. In order to
prevent any hardening OF the lu5rican ant

citation, New York;
Nothing has ever happened in this
country which clearly %exemplifies
the efforts, or rather the determination,
of ~moneybags and spectators to con.
troll the price of farm products than the
events of the past few weeks. A little
summary will recall some events that
are worthy Of study and consideration.
Y 4
About the first of July wheat was
quoted in Chicago at s6 cents pei
bushel This low price was prevailing
in spite Of the fact that none of the crol
of 1891 was coming in, and also in spite
Of the fact that reports were being re
ceived that there were great crop failure!
innearly every foreign country. The cap
italists and spectators who practically
control all telegraphic communication
between this country and all others were
the first to know Of the crop failure!
abroad, and for a time they knew it ex
clusively.
The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1891-10-02

Now all this is u spectators scheme.
When they get the price down low again,
and get large quantities of wheat under
control, they will quit their lying on one
side and go to lying the other way.
They propose by this means to raise the
price way up and make piles of money
on what they bought at the low prices.

DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry will cure it, if taken in time and
given fair trial. This world-renown-

failed. Thousands gratefully testify
to this. 1t is the most potent tonic,

Shooting on Flat Creek.

A shooting affray took place on
Monday, at Harper's Ferry in Henry
county, between Jack Estes and Tom
Long in which both men were wound
ed and Long has since died. Election
whisky seems to have been the
cause of the difficulty. Estes shot
first and the ball took effect in Longs
left breast. He fell to the ground
and dropped his pistol, but in few
moments recovered sufficiently to get
the pistol again and shoot Estes, the
ball taking effect in his face and rang
ing upward, lodged about the top of
his head. 1t is thought that Estes
will also die.
