THE INLAND STAR.
The Sturdy Little Boat Comes Out Un-
scathed.

When the ice was bearing down so
heavily on the little boat Inland Star,
the report was current that she had
cracked from bow to stern. Now that
the ice has gone down it is shown that
her hull is as sound as ever. The test is
probably the most severe to which she
could be subjected, as it is estimated
that the force against her was equal to a
100 ton pressure. Mr.. Kennedy, the
builder and captain of the boat. has been
about two years in constructing her.
With no previous knowledge of boat
building, and rejecting all advice from
those claiming knowledge in the art,
he has constructed a miniature steamer
which, as far as strength is concerned, is
able to buffet the storms of the ocean.
Her equipment is now complete and
she will be launched in about week.
The only effect of the squeeze she has
recently had was to break the propeller
wheel (Which Mr.. Kennedy thinks was
broken before) and loosen some of the
The captain expects to go be-
low before the close of the week, to Sc
cure the necessary papers allowing her
to do business on the river

whaleback Building ON the Pacific

A large force of men are at work on
the new whaleback steamer Everett,
building at Everett, Washington. The
contract has already been let to the
Frontier Iron Works, of Detroit, Mich,
for the construction of the engines for
the Everett. They will develop between
five and six thousand horse power. The
Everett is to be passenger and freight
vessel, combined. Sixty staterooms
will be put in on the upper deck for the
accommodation of passengers. 1t has
not been decided yet what route the
Everett will be put on, but it is probable
that she will be put on the regular run
between Everett and San Francisco.
She is being built large enough so she
can make the run to japan or China,
her tonnage being 4,500.

F. ]. Greed, our strawberry king, ex-
poets very large returns from the coming
seasons crop. Mr.. Greed has demon
strated that Mosier can grow berries
equally early, and as good in every re-
spect as the famous Hood River berry
which command such large prices at the
first of the season.
The snow has nearly all gone. The
outlook for the fruit crop is very flatter-
ing and those who have orchards in
bearing rejoice exceedingly. The immi-
grant who has been here long enough to
have young orchards planted, is happy
in the belief that the snow fall will
stimulate the trees into lively growth.
In fact about the only one whom the
heavy fall of snow did not help is the
last year immigrant, who has been play
ing freeze-out all winter in box house.
However, those who are opening up
fruit farms have shed their winter
whiskers and with axe and mattock are
making way with the native tree, to be
replaced by the apple, prune and peach.

occupy and which never fail in this Sec

The supreme court of Mosier convened
at the new school house on the 9Th inst,
to try one of our citizens for an assault
with his deadly fist upon one, Mr.. --
for not shutting up his mouth when
requested to do SO. The defendant
was arrested, duly arraigned and asked
for change of venue on the ground
that the court was prejudiced. The
clerk, Mr.. -, said there was no
change of 'tavenue'' from that court, and
advised the prisoner to plead guilty and
assured him that the court would make
the penalty as light as possible under
the statutes, which would be two years
in the pen. and $500 fine, together with
the costs of the court. The court then
took a recess until "day after tomorrow
at 2 o'clock" Although the time was
rather indefinite, it probably did arrive,
for on the 10th inst. the prisoner was
again arrested and arraigned before the
court. The counsel for the defense in
sisted on having the case sent to the
nearest iustice. Hood River. The court
said there were not many men living at
Hood River, and they might be all
dead, and decided to send the case to
The Dalles, where the prosecuting wit
ness had more friends. This reason, if
not brilliant, surely has the simplicity
that is supposed to go with honesty.
The case was finally put off until the
snow goes off, and crime stalks at large
unchallenged in Mosier- SUB.
