Bears freed by a Woman.

Here Is the best bear story of the sea-
son from the East Washingto nian, and the
author should be given the medal: "The
widow Bosley aud P. Browder, while
picking huckleberries on Cummins creek
one day this week, came across an old
bear and two cubs. The cubs were chased
up tree where they were safely guar Led
by Mrs Bosley, while Browder walked to
a mill, two miles distant, and returned
with gun. While the widow was stand
ing at the tree watching the cubs the old
bear tore around. crasnIng the brush at q
fearful rate and growing frightrully, but
kept some distance away. The widow
stood plucklly al her post and delivered
the bar meat 10 the gunner, who dis
patched both cubs on short order upon
his return. The cubs made several at
tempts to get down the tree to the ground
but were as often beaten back bv the wo
man, who raped them numerically with
a stick, while she kept one eye on the old
bear, who wa kicking up such racket
as would have caused the famous bear
hunter of Pomeroy to either skedaddle or
climb more rapidly than the cubs"

Work at the Looks.
CASCADE LOCKS, Aug. %, 1898.

| Editor TINES -MOUhTAlSEER:
The click and ring of the stone cutter:
| hammer and chisel is sounding at very
| nearly the same rate as before the recent
strike. I learn there are about ninety
cutters at work, and about one hundred
and forty others engaged in the various
other parts of the work.
The pumping goes uninterruptedly on
and the water has been lowered at lively
rate. The bottom of the canal will be ex
posed to view by Thursday, If not sooner,
provided there is no bad luck to the ma
chinery or otherwise. ZEBEDEE.
CASCADE LOCKS, Aug. 81, 1893.
Editor TMEs-MoUNTANEER:
The bottom of the completed part of the
canal was free from water early this morn
ing with the exception of small space that
the large pump could not take up. The
small pump and driving power is in place
ready to start in the morning. and viii
keep the canal tree from water while ex-
cavating, and wall work goes on.
So far as 1 know every thing isgolng well
with the work, and I hope most earnestly
that 1t may continue to do SO until fully
completed.
Outside of the work there seems deartb
of interesting or exciting events. There is
some talk among the better class of labor
ing men on the action of the lower hou.e Of
on the silver question. l think,
without exception, they dIsapprove the
course acted out. ZEBEDEE.

Kidnapped.

A strange tale comes from PerrYdale.
Polk county. A week ago last Thursday
night as Luke Strong was travelling along
the road between the farm of Ira Town
send and Perrydale, after dark, he was
set upon by two men who threw him
down and bound him He was then
blindfolded and conducted on foot to what
he thiuks was Breidwell's station, where
he was put into \ hack, and then began
journey that ended about twelve miles
east of the Summit near Mt. Hood.
Strong was kept blindfolded the entire
distance, and was offered food, which he
declined. Tuesday night his captors did
not tie him as usual, and along toward
morning he escaped and started west.
After daylight he met a freighter going TO
Tygh valley, who gave him %. Strong
left his coat, watch apd chain and $22
with his captors. He walked the entire
distance, via Portland, to Perrydale, ar
irving home last Friday at midnight,
says the Sheridan Sun. Strong Is 20 years
of age, has no bad habits and is consid-
cred truthful by all who know him. He
thinks the men were sitter some one else,
and when they found their mistake, they
purposely gave him an opportunity TO es-
cape.

A Sad Mission,

Mr.. A. j. McHaiey returned last night
from the Sound on the sad mission of &C
companying the remains of his daughter,
Ida Eliza, here for 1nterment. She had
been sick for some time with consump-
tion, and was IN Seattle under the care of
a physician. Last Saturday he received
a telegram announcing the fact that she
was very sick and to come at once. He
Immediately came to town and took the
Sunday morning train, but before he ar
rived at his destination his daughter had
passed away in the arms of her mother,
who had patiently waited on the sufferer
during the long illness. The funeral will
take place in this city tomorrow forenoon
at IL O'Clock at the Congregational
church, and the body will be laid to rest
in the Odd Fellows cemetery. Elder j.
w. Jenkins, of the Christian church, will
officiate at the church and grave. Miss
Ida Eliza McHailey was l9 years of age,
and was born IN The Dalles. She was
young lady of very estimable traits OF
character, and her death will be source
of regret 10 her many friends.

An EXPLANATION.

In justice to Umatilla county we publish
the following from the East Oreqoniaa:
''S4ys The Dalles TIMES MoUNTAINEER:
Most OF the letters king the governor to
call an extra session of the legislature are
from Umatilla county, where. it Is alleged,
the farmers are in debt S.. 000. 600. and
wheat is quoted at thirty.eight cents a
bushel Some of these letters were written
from Umatilla county, but most of them by
men who have ither property nor labor
at stake The farmers of Umatilla are not
in debt S.. 900 600 or anything like it. The
total debt of Umatilla county, which IN
cludes debts owed to other citizens of the
county, as well as mortgages, accounts with
merchants and the debts of merchants. is
not s., ,OOO, 900. Hyperboles are easily con-
structed by any one who cares not how
carelessly he handles the truth and who
writes to excite surprises rather than to
state = fact. Umatilla county possesses
such citizen, aud he is solely responsible
for most OF the letters written in the inter-
est of a stay law What his object was
we fail to understand"

Echoes From the Ocean.

| SEA VIEW, Aug. 2S, 1898.
Editor TIMEs-MoUNTAINEER:
1 can almost say with Byron:
And have loved thee ocean, and my joy
| OF youth ul sports W 8 on thy breast to be
Borne, like thy bubb ,es, on Sard; from a boy
wantoned with thy breakers
For the Atlantic sang my cradle hymn,
and in manhood the Pacific has told me
tales of joy, sorrow and disappointment.
To watch the breakers as they chase each
other in their mad race TO be dashed upon
the shore Is an amusement of which one
never tires; and then the thunder tones
of old oceans roar awes him into silence
and reflection. 1t sings the song of CEN
turles past and centuries yet to come.
When the world was young, and man had
not learned to build the column Or hew
the architrave, its tune was the same. In
death it is requiem; in joy 1t Is waltz:
The same continuous swish and swash;
the same crested waves followed each
other, either dashing their fury against
the roLk ribbed side of some bluff or low
lngly kissing the pebbly bach, before the
pyTduluS WClC Uullb Vi thO al oh AoSSo
scattered over europe. When the proud
Armada pressed its bosom or the dragon
headed prov of the ship of the Viking
cleft Its surface, this watery waste was
the same-restless as life, uncertain as
death and as boundless as eternity Fit
representative of Deity 1t commands re-
snecf and adora- ion
But farewell to revere and now to
facts.
There are very many Dalles people
scattered around on the beach, enjoying
the cool breeze, while no doubt you
swelter in the heat.
Amusements consist of bathing and
watching the life-saving crew go through
their usual exercises.
The beach is twenty miles long, and is
a splendid drive or walk-to an athlete.
Every day 1t is literally crowded with
loungers and bathers. who appear to take
the greatest enjoyment in their listl ess
state of existence. More anon.
