Bonfu1ing ess.

SALEM, Dec. 30.-rhe question is being
agitated of asking the Legislature to pass
bill authorizing counties to bond their
indie ebtedness. We are informed by
lawyers that such bill would be uncon-
stitutional. The state constitution pro-
hibits county from contracting an in
debtedness of over $4,000, therefore no
person would buy the bonds even if they
were issued. The only way to bond the
indebtedness of counties is to procure an
amendment to the constitution, and
such proceed ure would take three years
time.

Terrible Experience of a Pleasure Party.
A small fishing schooner has Just re-
turned from a trip along the coast. and
brought with it a party Of father, son
and daughter. who had an experience
which rarely falls TO the lot Of any one.
The party is William Buchanan, his
son Tom. and his daughter Nellie. Five
weeks ago they started on a cruise along
the coast in small yacht, taking a
pleasure trip. They were provided with
guns, ammunition and fishing tackle,
and expected to have fortnight's sport
and then return east. Miss Nellie was
as expert with the gun and rod as either
her father or brother, and all three We're
good sailors. About sixty miles sonth
squan drove their yacht out TO sea and
wrecked the vessel on one Of the small
islands about twenty miles off the coast.
Mr.. Buchanan was badly bruised by
being dashed against the rocks, and Tom
had his right arm broken in similar
way. Miss Nellie was the only one OF
the party who received no injury, and 1t
is to this fact alone that any OF them are
alive. The guns, ammunition and fishing
tackle We're all saved, and Miss Nellie
cared for her wounded relatives and
then started ont 10 get them something
to eat The island is out OF the way OF
travel, and in consequence not vessel
was seen for two weeks. Duringali this
time the young lady hunted and tished,
and was so successful that they did not
pass one day without food.
The island is SO fat and barren that
unless a vessel gets close to it the people
on board cannot see it. They could not
use the little wood they found for signal
fires, for they were afraid there would
not be enough to serve for cooking their
food. A storm had sent them on the
island, and similar occurrence saved
them, for the fishing schooner had been
driven off the shore and out of her course
and when the captain saw the island he
sent boat ashore to see if he could get
water.
Mr.. Buchanan had by this time fully
recovered, but the son was still suffering
from his broken arm. They were taken
off and brought to this city, and are now
feeling none the worse for their expert
ence, except Tom. whose arm is in bad
condition from neglect of proper treat
ment during the two weeks Of suffering.
