"o1d Reel Foot"

''Old Reel Foot" was the name of a
bear that has struck terror to the heart
of many rancher in the Siskiyous in
years agone. This bear was very large
one and frequently slaughtered large
beeves. He was hunted by many hardy
trappers on various occasions, and al
ways came off first best, except in one
instance where he lost one of the claws
and injured one of his fore feet. There
after he had a limping gait and could
be traced by peculiar track which es-
tablished his identity. This largest of
grizzlies was ever after most wary, and
so cute had he become that on one oc-
casion, it is related, when bait of
fresh meat had been artfully arranged
on a suspended limb so as to discharge
the contents of gun into him, he sta
toned himself on the other side of the
tree, pulled the bait to one side and
downward, the tree being between him
and the bait. The charge struck the
ground and ''Reel Foot" got the prize.
Later he was killed by party of three
and dangerous bit of work it was For
the last three years he has been on ex-
hibition in various coast towns, and
is today in The Dalles. He will be
taken to the worlds fair.

Hooks, wake Up.

1t is singular that, considering the eff
ficacy of the different hose companies in
the city, the interest taken and the en-
thusiasm manifested by their several
mem bers, that the hook and ladder SER
vice is SO derelict. Jud. Fish, the eff
cient chief of the fire department, re-
ports commendable interest and pride
in the fire department here except in
this one regard. The hose companies
Are represented by the very best of our
younger citizens, and there is no good
feason why hook and ladder company
could not be just as serviceable. Now is
the time to make an effective organiza-
zion, and get out and go through the
Prill. AS regards public effect hook
hnd ladder makes very pretty showing,
tand oftentimes steals the honors of the
more unpretentious hose cart and reel.

Pendleton for Morrow county, from
which county there will be one drive of

sheep was finished. A good crop of
wool was obtained, the average being

Air Ventilation and Coal.


A thorough and scientific examination
made by an English chemist on the effect
of air and ventilation on coal gives the fol-
lowing results: First, the danger OF spon-
taneous firing of coal in large Jumps is
very slight, butts much greater with small
es coal and greater still with dust, the in
crease Of danger being due to the larger ex-
tent OF surface exposed to the air in proper
ton to the mass Of the coal. Second, air
dried coal which contains more than per
cent OF moisture is dangerous, but if it con-
tains less the danger diminishes, the mois-
ture contained being a measure of the alb
sorbent power of the coal for air, and the
more absorbent the coal the more danger
GUS. Third, the danger is somewhat in
creased by the presence of pyrites in large
quantity. Fourth, newly won coal should
be shielded from the air as much as pos
sible to prevent the chance of rapid heating,
and for the same reason it is best not to
stack it in large heaps, since these retain
the heat. Fifth, all external sources Of
heat, such as steam pipes, boilers and hot
f1ues In she neighborhood Of the coal, add
very greatly to the risk, spontaneous heat
ing becoming vastly more rapid when it is
assisted from without OF course these con-
illusions have special relation to coal that
is stored or shipped in cargoes.-New York

FIGHTING FOR A RIDE.
High Old Time Around the Ferris
Wheel Few Nights Ago.

Chicago, November 3.-The owners of
tion to restrain the Worlds Fair officers
from interfering with the business of the
wheel. The legal proceedings grew out of
a lively row which occurred several
nights ago. Then the Fair guards tried
> to stop the sale of tickets. A crowd of
people who wanted to ride in the wheel
broke through the guards. Patrons
were let in by employees of the company
wherever there was room to squeeze
through. Finally Colonel W. Rollins of
the Ferris company was arrested, but was
speedily released from custody.
BY this time an immense number OF
people had gathered. Men and women
made rush for the platform at inter-
walls. and the guards tried to pull them
back. Fifty Ferris men pulled the
patrons under the turnstiles into the in
closure. Several visitors who were caught
making break for the platforms were
given ride in the patrol wagons and
discharged. Some were pulled and
hauled around in o way to arouse the
crowd to assume threatening attitude.
The force OF guards was increased. Chief
Engineer Charles Kreider pushed one of
the guards off the platform. Then he
was hustled off by the guards, who tried
to drag him to the guard house.
j. II. Hunter, the company's electrician,
jumped into the thickest of the melee,
hitting out right and left at the guards.
He tried to get Kreider away from his
captors and the crowd assisted him.
Guards drew lbillies, slung shots and
swords and forced the rescuers back.
Kreider was hit OH the head with billy.
Hunter received cut in the face. Fierce
blows were exchanged. Kreider was led
away prisoner. He soon returned free
man, however. A squad of regular police
officers came on the scene. B. Strong,
guard, attempted to keep one of the
city detectives off the platform. Then
the police bounced upon the guard and
bore him off to the station amid the
cheers and jibes.of thousands So it con-
tinued with more or less exciting
episodes, until the wheel closed for the
night.
President Ferris said: 1--WE have a
contract with the exposition company
giving us exclusive control of the
grounds sixty days after November 80.
