o'clock, as conductor Ben Limerick
started on his first trip, after pro-
tracted spell of sickness, he met with an
accident by which he lost his little finger
and first joint of the thumb of his left
hand and otherwise had the flesh of
both sides of his hand badly torn. He
was getting off of the top of a freight car
at East Portland when the top round of
the ladder gave way and he fell to the
y ground with the above result. just how
his hand got mashed we have been un-
able to learn.
Mr. G.. j. Farley, uperintendent of
construction of the Cascades portage
railroad, came up Saturday night and
will return to the Cascades tonight. He
informs us that the eastern end of the

whole track, with the exception of tres
tie work at the western terminus, will
be laid this week. Mr.. Farley still in
sists that everything will be in readi-
ness for business as soon as the rolling
stock can possibly get here.
Engineer M. Cavanaugh, if the Uma-
t1lla House register is to be believed,
can do more travelling, in less time than
George Francis Train. If the register
cannot be believed then Mr.. Cavanaugh
can beat Train anyway. Today he is
registered as from Hong Kong, China,
yesterday it was from Cork, Ireland, to-
morrow it will be as like as not, from
Patagonia, while next day he may hail
from Conemara. Either Mr.. Cavanaugh
has marvellous gift of ubiquity or a
vivid Imagination, or both, but in any
event George Francis had better pull in
his sign.

himself, on whom. the subject of the
Flowery Kingdom drew butcher knife
that appeared to Mr.. Taffe to be about
six feet long, long enough at any rate to
superinduce a race for life, on the part
of Mr. Taffe, over his whole earldom.
Mr.. Taffe avows that while he has been
: a South American guerilla, and con-
federate bushwhacker he never fed from
the face of mortal man before. The
Chinaman will have his preliminary ex-
animation this afternoon before Justice
