MET WATERY GRAVES.
Fourteen Men Washed Away by
tho Waves and Drowned.
The waterworls Crib at Milwaukee, wis.
Wrecked by n storm-swept Into the
Waves Like an Egg shell--Furi-
GUS Gallo on Lake Michigan.

MILWAUKEE, April 91.- In a gale
which for years has not been equalled
on the great lakes, the waterwork crib
at the end of the intake tunnel, situ-
ated some three thousand feet out in
the lake, was washed away and Of
fifteen workmen who were employed
there in the shaft which reaches 10 the
shore, but one is known to be alive.
The balance are believed to have been
drowned. Some were doubtless washed
off by the huge pillows and others per
ished in the air shaft, where they
sought shelter and which is now filled
with water.
At daylight yesterday morning no
vestige either Of the crib or house that
surmounted il could be seen and there
were but faint traces here and there Of
the government breakwater that was
hidden in the mountains of surf that
broke over it. The entire prospect as
far as the eye could reach was one aw-
full spectacle of seething, boiling, roar
ing pillows that seemed TO unite with
the clouds in the bay. On the beach
were two lumber laden craft that had
vainly sought shelter behind the break
water, while the shore was strewn with
the wreckage. About 200 feet OF the
breakwater which was thought to be
staunch enough to Withstand the Sc
verest storm had been washed away
and the massive timbers and planks
were tumbled In disordered heaps upon
the shore.
The house on the crib was flimsy
affair, constructed on the plan Of the
ordinary frame house on shore. The
joists were 2x4 inch pine sticks and the
sides were of common matched floor
ing. 1t was two stories high and was
flush with the sides Of the crib. The
lower floor was occupied by the machtn-
cry and cook room and the upper one
as sleeping apartment for tho men.
The house was constructed for the pur-
pose Of providing sleeping quarters for
the men.
Yesterday afternoon the tug Welcome
took life-boat N tow ana steamed out
into the furious waves where the nfe-
boat was east loose and set out on its
perilous journey to the crib. It was
frequently hidden from view in the hol-
lows Of the great waves, but being
equipped with a self-bailing apparatus
it suffered no harm and made the trip
In safety. Only one man was found
alive at the crib, however, and he was
brought ashore in an unconscious con.
dition and will probably die. 1t is not
known what his name is. Later In the
afternoon the gale began to subside and
the sea became less rough, though the
waves still rolled very high. a search
will be made for the bodies of the mer
who were drowned as soon as the lake
becomes little safer.

gardinE the Financial situation.
WASHINGTON, April s1. - Secretary
Carlisle last night made the following
statement regarding the financial stu
alton:
"In the exercise of the discretionary
power conferred upon the secretary OF
the treasury by the act Of July IA, $780,
he has been paying gold for the coin
treasury notes issued for the purchase
OF silver bullion, and he will continue
TO do so as long as he has gold lawfully
available for that purpose. Under this
process the government has been and
is now paying gold for silver bullion
and storing the silver in its vaults,
where 1t is as useless for any purpose
OF circulation or redemption as iron,
lead OF any other commodity.
"The government in the first place
issues coin treasury note in payment
for silver bullion and then the coin
treasury note is presented at sub
treasury and the gold is paid out for III;
so that the effect is precisely the same
as II the gold were paid directly for the
silver in the first instance. About $780,
900 of the gold which was withdrawn
from the snb-treasury on last Tuesday
for shipment abroad was paid out on
these coin treasury notes. No order
has been made to stop the payment Of
gold upon these notes, nor has any one
been authorized to say that such an or
der would be issued.
"The purpose Of the government 10
preserve It's own credit unimpaired and
maintain the parity Of the two metals
by all lawful means will not be aban-
doned under any circumstances.
"There is gold enough in the country
TO meet all the requirements of the sit
uation, and II all who are really inter
ested in maintaining sound and stable
currency would assist the secretary Of
the treasury to the extent of their abil-
tiles, the existing difficulties would soon
be removed

Not a Lost Art.

Arch@ologists and antiquarians in their
writings frequently refer to the manufac-
ture of flint arrowheads, etc., as lost art.
That is great mistake. The art is prob
ably lost to the Indians because they have
no use for it. The stone implements have
given place to those of iron and steel, and
the rife and revolver have supplanted the
flint ak and arrowhead. The art of making
them is not lost, however. There are
many collectors of relics of the aborigines
who have studied the art of working In
flint and have become adopts. In Chatta-
nooga gentleman has become so proficient
In the art that he has not only manufac-
tured magnificent specimens of arrow
heads from flint, but also from the far more
brittle obsidian, and even from ordinary
Times.

Senator Wsatherford,s Record

CORVALLIS, Sept. There has been
q special term of circuit court here held
by Judge Fullerton, to hear motions in
several cases In which the o. P. Rail-
way, is interested. Senator Weather
ford, of Albany, was here representing
some of the heavy depositors in the
Hamilton, Job & Co. bank. He is not
losing sleep over the attacks on his po-
litical record at Salem and smiles at
some Of the alleged charges made.
Being Democrat be was not chairman
Of any senate committee, nor of any in
vestigation committee. OF course,dt the
statement that he had four clerks at
$50 day, is fair sample of the quad
ruple extract of political lies now pass
ing current in some newspapers. He
neither selected nor named any clerk,
regular or special, nor got any of the
profits or advantages of having done
so. He posted most of bis bills in his
files himself.
He went to Walla Walla on a special
committee on jute mill and the chair.
man reported mileage for each member
who went. He drew that besides his
mileage from Linn county as senator,
aud 1t just about met his increased ex-
penses for having had to go to Walls
Walla. The charge that be appropri
ated mileage that he was not legally
entitled to has no foundation in fact.
AS to the charge that he took codes,
session laws. and refused to ask ques-
tions in the Downing Investigation, the
senator considers them 80 trivial as to
be really not worth talking about. 1t
has been the universal custom in the
Oregon legislature aud all legislatures
to vote the members codes and session
laws. They are not all lawyers and
out of their duty to serve the people
intelligeDtly as law makers grows this
right to have these books.
From the constitutional convention
to the most recent session of the general
assembly this practice has prevailed,
and the most eminent men in the state
of all parties aYailed themselves of the
privilege. In the Downing investiga-
ton Senator Willis was chairman and
the people making the charges were
represented by as keen a lawyer in fer
reting out technical or commercial
irregularities, as there is at Salem, John
A. Carson. Weatherford's record as
man and lawyer,as a senator and public
man can not be successfully dragged
In the dirt for personal ends.

LITERARY NOTES.

1.-THE New Era" by Josiah Strong.
d. d. Whoever begins this work, will
not fail to finish It, for, to the accuracy
and philosophical impulse Of histO-
rian the author adds the grace of
romancer. The great problem Of to-
day is how organization and individ-
ualism can be so adjusted as to help
each other and so bring about "Tbe
New Era" when the social extreme
shall not exist, and all shall live in
comfort. The book is 80 well written
as to command the attention Of all. 1t.
is one Of the best things of this decade.

mostly Marjorie Dayn by Virginia

and it may be classed among perfectly
harmless stories. Lee & SHEPHERD,

Board Swimmers of the Sandwich Islands.
One of the most venturesome sports
practiced by any people is the surf
board swimming Of the Sandwich Is
lands.
Nearly every one has experienced the
delights of surf bathing, with its exhil-
arating rush and battle with the tonic
waves. This pleasure is keenly enjoyed
by the Hawaiians, who pursue it with
singular abandon.
The surf board is a plank Of light
wood 10 to IA feet long, with one end
rounded. The edges are also rounded,
but the other end of the board is left
square. A piece of cloth is usually
bound around this end, perhaps for the
support Of the foot while swimming, on
rather being projected like a cannon ball
by the wave.
A crowd Of natives will swim out,
towing their boards, diving under and
dodging the heavy rollers coming In,
until they are quite distance from
land. Every third wave is larger than
the others, and on the broad back of this
huge breaker the natives ride in like the
wind. Sometimes they stand erect on
the boards, but they usually crouch or
lie down. and keep balance with dex-
ferrous stroke Of the foot or hand or by
swaying the body. This sport is not
without mishap, but the natives are such
"water dogs"Athat the accidents rarely
terminate fatally.
Captain Cook says that he saw with
horror one of these surf boards dashed
into pieces but an instant after man
had quilted it. To be compelled to
leave the board and dive back under the
wave is considered very disgraceful, and
besides the oiled, polished and highly
valued board, which has required whole
tree trunk for its manufacture, is lost
