a Murder Mystery.

: The remains OF murdered man were
found in a wheat car at Albina on the
18th. The car was No. 3193 from the
Snake river country, but had been
switched off at The Dalles and at Mosier
en- route. He is apparently about
thirty-fve years old, five feet ten inches
in height, and weighs about 175 pounds.
He was dressed in black frock coat,
black vest and gray-striped pants. His
overshirt was a blue flannel one, and
his underclothing was of brown woolen
goods. He has sandy hair and very
light mustache. 1t was apparent that
he wore false teeth, and his bare upper
gums were lacerated, as if having been
struck by some heavy instrument. He
had a letter in his pocket, addressed
Dear Brother, and signed Lease. The
seal of the car had been broken.

THE CASCADE LOCKS.

List of Bids Submitted for Completing
the Work by Contract.
Following is the list of the bids re-
Fceived by Major Handbury, United
States engineers, for completing the
canal at the cascades:
Oscar Huber, Spokane, WASH, ST.
679 ,5E0.41; Dickinson & Co., Tacoma,
Wash, 81 ,526 BOB; n. J. Blagen, Port
land, Or, 50 ,So5, 1882; ]. G. & I. N. Day,
San Francisco, CAL, 1915, ,765; G. D.
Vincent & John Mahony, San Francisco,
81 1897 ,212.25; J. P. NJ. Phillips ct al,
San Francisco, CAL, 81 ,799, ,59s.S7.
The estimate of the government engi-
neers for doing this work was 81 $50, ,s33
with 10 per cent. added for engineering
contingencies and inspection expenses.
"Under the construction of the law gov
erning this contract says the Oregonian,
but two of these bids could receive rec
ommendation. From this 1T will be
seen that it will cost about the same to
have the work done by contract as by
the government The saving in time
which will be effected by the contract
system has been fully demonstrated at
Sault Ste. Marie, and elsewhere; and
does not s'remain to be found OUT II
has been expected up this way that con-
struction of the law governing this con-
tract would be twisted out of all shape,
if necessary, to defeat the project.

The Cleveland Slide and the snails
Pace OF the U. p. r. Co.
The face of the whole country in the
vicinity of Reeds, below Bonneville,
seems to be moving for mile and a
half back. 1t is perhaps located on a
glacier, and this being the year for rec
ord breaking the landslide record of the
U. P. r. Co. along the Columbia must
be shattered. From Monday night till
this morning the slide has travelled 500
feet north of the track, and has not only
demolished house which has stood
there thirty years, but has nearly cover
ed up the locomotive, tender and car,
ditched the first day. There is a mile
of the mountain yet to come down, and
lat the present rate of working the In
Hand Empire will have to depend on the
river, for some weeks at least. The U.
P. R. Co. are displaying very little
energy to cope with this immense OBJ
struction. The Oregonian yesterday
says the train due in Portland Tuesday

morning did not arrive until after mid
night and the passengers became very
impatient, and drew up set of resolu-
tions condemning the company for not
being more energetic in sending relief
train to the scene. This is in keeping
with the management, as they sent a
locomotive to The Dalles simply to"turn
it around" when there was turn table
at Bonneville. What is the matter
was it not used? 1t is unfortunate for
the company that such slides occur, and
they have our sympathy; but when ac-
cidents such as this do occur, it is time
to get move on.

Cutting and Fitting a Speciality
MRS. GIBSON, Prop.

1t was Ben johnson, we believe, who,
when asked Mallock's question, SIS life
worth living?" replied, 'sThat depends

bly, saw the double point to the pun.
The liver active = quick - life rosy,
everything bright, mountains of trouble
melt like mountains of snow. The liver
sluggish = life dull, everything blue,
molehills of worry rise into mountains
of anxiety, and as result-sick head
ache, dizziness, constipation. Two ways
are open. Cure permanently, or relieve
temporarily. Take pill and suffer. or
take pill and get well. Shock the
system by an overdose, or coax it by a
mild, pleasant way.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the
mild means. They work effectively,
without pain, and leave the system

is enough, although whole vial costs

to are averse to having the SD congress

as Carlisle, Mills and some of the mem
bers of the ways and means committee,
before congress meets, SO that a bill can
be prepared and rushed through as soon
