Cloud Cap Inn.

This famous resort will be opened for
the reception Of guests next Monday,
the 18th inst. Mr.. Will Langille us
sisted by his mother is in charge, and
this Is sufficient guarantee that guests
will receive every attention and the
best Of treatment. VIII, is the best in-
formed man in Oregon concerning Mt.
Hood, having been ut Cloud Cap in the
capacity Of guide ever since that fa-
nous hostelry was opened. The tour
list who visits Oregon, and goes home
without visiting MI Hood, makes a sad
the ride up the Columbia il an ever
changing delight, and from here over
the most magnificent road on the coast
the trip is revelation. The Inn itself
lis situated on the summit of narrow
ridge, facing the Eliot glacier which is
distant less than half mile, and the
exploration of which is thing never
to bc forgotten. The ascent of Cuoper's
spur; from which all eastern Oregon is
visible, is easily made, even by ladies,
and requires only few hours for the
round trip. The rates at the hotel are
we understand, reduced to S. per day,
and the round trip can be made from
Portland, with.one day at the hotel for
SIG. Those who have visited Cloud
Cap and the Eliot glacier, pronounce it
the most delightful trip in the world.
Nine hours ride by rail and stage, from
Portland you are setdown in the realms
of eternal ice. No description can do it
justice, the only way is to go, see, and
realize the beauties of Mt. Hood and
then try to tell.

4 Lost Boy.

Last Saturday l.. T.. Morse moved his
fumcly out TO Sandy bottom, on the
west fork Of Hood river. On the other
side of Winans' place is gate across
the road, aud just beyond IL the road
turns sharply 10 the right, Crosses the
middle fork, and turns again to the
right and follows down the stream.
Mr. MOrsc's little liyG-ycar-old boy got
of the wagon to close the gate, and, 1t
Ia supposed loitercd along the road until
on coming 10 the turn in the rond and
not seeing the wagon, lac became
alarmed, and instead Of following 1t
went straight ahead following an old
Indian trail. He passed an Indian
camp crying, and some Of the Indinns
called him but hc paid no attention to
them. Mr. Morse became alarmed Mt
the boy's not appearing, and went back
to look for him. Lin. Winans and the
Indians Immediately joined in the,
search, and followed his trail up the RI
ycr At one place "A blur came down
to the water IN such II shape that he
could not climb ovcrit, or get around It
without getting in the river, which ut
this point was quite deep, but the boy
managed 1t in some way. Proceeding
up the river, Mr.. Winhns found piece
Of ribbon which the boy had worn on
his neck, and also saw where he had
slipped down steep bank into the
river just below II steep blull, and here
hope was abandoned, but his trail was
found short distance up and soon af-
ter hc was found still following up the
river and nearly up to the ioot-log at
Dishrow's place, distant from the start
ing place about miles. He was wet
all over, and had no doubt been in the
water where it was over his head. The
stream is Il strong one, dangerous for II
man TO lose his footing in, and how
this little fellow escaped, unless like
John Hays Little Brceches" it was

planned by the fact that he knew his

REMINDERS OF THE WAR.

CAPT. JACK HAYNES, who served in
three wars and is now one hundred and
three years of age, has been made
member of Frank p Blair Post, Grand
Army of the Republic, of ST. Louis,
and is doubtless the oldest member OF
the organization. He was in the war OF
1912 and the Mexican war, and during
the late unpleasantness, when over
seventy, was the, engineer of gun
boat on the Mississippi.

Petersburg. There the commanders of
the opposing forces saw each others
mannuvers and all the brilliant pyro-
technics of the assault and defense.
Standing within the range of the
enemy's fire, as he often did, Gen. Rob-
ert e. Lee viewed the wonderful scene
of that battle. Dropping his field glasses
he turned to Gen. Hampton and said;
sit is well that this is so terrible, or we
might grow too fond of it"
GEN. WADE HAMPTON, of South Caro-
lima, was one of the southerners who
walked home" after the great race be-
tween Henry and Eclipse, over the
Union course on Long Island, thirty
five years ago, and has just divulged
why Henry happened to lose the race.
1t was all on account of lobster salad.
Col. johnson, who trained and managed
Henry, ate what he called "a mess of
salad" on the night previous to the race,
and he did not recover from his fit of

ABRAHAM LINCOLN was in no sense
fanatical But he believed in keeping
the Sabbath as a day of rest. During
the war he issued an order that breathed
the purest Christian sentiment as well
as the loftiest patriotism. In this he
said: 1.-The importance to man and
beast of the prescribed weekly rest, the
sacred rights of Christian soldiers, be-
coming Difference to the best sentiment
of a Christian people and a due regard
for the Divine will, demand that Sun

duced to the measure of strict neces-
| ity." No men ever more appreciated
such an order than the soldiers OF the
old Union army.

Wallace meted out to two soldiers who
had shot COW, in the face of orders
not to shoot stock, 1t was in warm

they were given branches cut from trees

Mrs. Bingham laughed. "Ah, that

AS the superintendent arose from his
