L. Samuels, well and favorably known
all over Oregon, has been appointed as
sociate manager of the Equitable As
surance society of New York. No better
selection could have been made by the
company as Mr.. Samuels is thorough
business man. The company he repre-.
sents is the oldest and most reliable in

tation of paying it's losses promptly.

Writing in reference to the waste of
fish at the Cascades, Commissioner
Mcdonald said to some one who wrote
him on the subject: "I desire to express
my earnest disapproval of such wasteful
methods of fishing, while regretting my
inability to prevent them. Neither the
United States fish commission nor the
government has Jurisdiction over the
fisheries of the Columbia, the regulation
of these industries is affected by the
laws OF Oregon and Washington, and
neither of these states has legisl ated
against injurious modes of fishing. The
subject should. be brought to the atten-
ton of the legislatures of the states con-
cerned, and action cannot be too prompt
if the permanence of the canning indus
try is to be insured
Mrs. Lottie Powell, wife OF Mr.. II. l..
Powell. who resides on Pleasant ridge,
near Dufur, met with an accident Tues
day by which she was very seriously in
jured. The horse attached to the cart
which she was driving became un-
manageable and ran away, throwing her
out and injuring her SO badly that she
had to be brought to The Dalles, four.
teen miles distant, on stretcher. To
accomplish this undertaking about
twenty kind hearted neighbors volun-
teered, and the unfortunate lady, with
her husband, and the father of her hus-
band, DIR. J. P. Powell, OF Gresham, ar
rived at the Union lodging house in The
Dalles Saturday night. The case is a
very critical one, indeed, as besides other
injuries three bones were broken in the
body. 1t is hoped, however, that she
may recover.
Eastern reports from various places
show that yesterday was the hot day of
'92 SO far. In New York City at p. m.
the mercury reached 80 degrees, the
hottest July oath ON record was in 1885,
when the temperature reached 81 de-
grees. The heat has been great but
humidity has been the chief
element of discomfort. In Louis
vile, KY, there was nearly 100 prostra-
tions, and many will, 1t is feared, result
fatally. A Milan, Tenn. dispatch, says
there were six cases of sunstroke in the
country. Many cattle are dying.
brisk breeze in Chicago made the dis
comforts less unbearable. Four deaths
by sunstroke and number Of prostra-
tions by heat were reported. In Gin
cinnati, the thermometer of the weather
bureau registered "a degrees ut o CLOCK
p. m. Three deaths from heat are re-
ported. Half dozen OF more cases oi
prostration occurred.
