The Track Was Saved.

A rather novel piece of engineering was
lnaugurated Monday on the Southern Pa
cifc main line on the Clackamas river near
Oregon City. During the high water the
trains have experienced serious difficulty IN
this district owing to the water covering
the track to depth of several feet, at times
extinguishing the fires IN the locomotive
furnace. Monday night fears were enter
tanned for the safety OF the track from be-
ing undermined and washed away so the
yard engine was ronted out and about
twenty box cars were switched out OF the
yard and onto the main line. The cars
were then backed down onto the submerged
track and spiked. Huge iron rails and bars
were distributed aloLg each side OF the
track at the ends of the ties. With this
precaution the track remained IN 'tstatu
QUO" The water has sufficiently receded
now to allow the rails to peek from their
watery bed aud Iu few days will, no
doubt. leave the track high and dry.

La Bastille.

This was placed on the boards last night,
aud was greeted by a very good audience
The plot of the play is laid in the stormy
times of the French revolution, and the
principal characters are some who suffered
in the bastlle and others who inaugura ated
the reign of terror. OF course the stage
was inadequate to fair presentation of the
thrilling acts connected with the drama;
but this was no fault of the company, aud
Mr.. Stuttz selected the best hall he could
procure III the city.
The leading role was taken by Mr.. j. G
Stuttz, who as Maurice Bertrand, gave a
French prison, and exhibited fine concep
tion of the strong feelings that would. under
the circumstances, rage in the breast of
every honest. liberty loving man. Mrs
Stuttz took the part Of Marguerite Lucot,
and made some very clever presentations of
the difficult character. As Able LIE Mair,
Harry Beldon displayed some artistic delin-
cations of the schemiDg, heartless william.
The other parts were taken by different
persons, and furnished support to the play.
There could not be conceived more IN
teresting page of modern history from
which to construct a drama, and the Incl
dents are such as to appeal to the strongest
feelings of the human heart. From begin
ming to end the attention of the audience
was riveted on the stage, and the acting was
frequently applauded. The American peo
pie have the warmest sympathy with the
French, and, while they cannot endorse all
the acts of Robesperre and his coadjutors,
yet "Vlve la France" "VIve la Liberty"
and the Marseillaise will always find re-
sponsive chords in the hearts of our citizens.

Held for Larceny.
From Fridays Daily.

Last Wednesday night MIR. Peter Four
nellie came from Portland on the boat, and
IN company with him was young man
named James Wettle, on whose person he
noticed certain clothes belonging to himself,
and which had been stolen from his resi-
dence on Chenoweth creek. About noon
yesterday Wettle was arrested by Mr..
Frank Maloney, charged with the larceny
of these goods. He acknowledged the lar
ceny. and implicated John Krier in the
theft of other articles, who was arrested
and held by Justice Schultz in the sum of
5000 to appear for examination, and bail
furnished.
Later in the day, from confessions of
Wettle, it was found that KrIer had pur.
loined several articles and his bondsmen de.
livered him into the hands of the Off Ger.
Mr.. Maloney went to Chenoweth creek about
l o'clock last night, and found in Kriers
house about $50 worth OF carpenter tools
which he had taken from MIR. Fournelle, a
pair of cuff huttcns owned by a baker in
this city and other goods amounting in
value to about $l20. 1t is supposed K -ier
broke into the cabin of Fournelle, which is
not far distant from his own and stole the
tools during Fournelle's absence. The other
articles were taken from visitors unknown
to them, and who did not suspect their host
of being guilty of the crime. Krier is now
confined In the county jail and Wettle in
the city lock up, and further developments
may be expected. KrIer was interested In
the steam wood saw, and is we'll known to
our citIzens.
The sheriff and his deputy, j. 81. Jackson
went out to Chenoweth creek to day, and |
brought an express wagon loaded with |
stolen goods from the house of Krier |
These were taken to Justice Schultz office, |
and Krier and Weitle appeared this after
noon for examination. After hearing the |
magistrate held them in $3.50 bail each to
appear and answer the charges before the

cate general prosperity among the tribes
and a gradual advancement In civilization.
Several agents comment ou the indifference
of Indians to marriage ties and their un-
willingness to abandon old customs. The
agent OF the ColvilIe agency In Washington
believes the efforts te clvihzs the red men
are not successful and says, by intermar-
riage anu a heavy death rate, the Indian is
doomed to extinction in a few generations.
At the Uintah and OuraY reservation in
Utah the use of grazing lands by white
men is creating considerable dissatisfaction.
The work of the courts OF Indian offenses
is generally recommended, and the eff

attention paid to agriculture and stock
raising at most of the agencies is reported
to be growing each year.
