FRANK BATES BURIAL.
Contradiction of the Story That He
Was Buried Alive.

The following communication will be
found self-eXplanatory:
Ilwaco, March 49, 1894.
Editor Astorian: With a proverbial
regard for truth, and with a morbid
brutality of imagination that would eX-
cite the envy of the author of dime
novel, the Budget gives the narrowing
details of the sight which greeted the
eyes of the friends of the late Frank
Bates, on disinterring his body for ship
ment east Either the Budget or it's in
formant wilfully lied. The body never
was exhumed. Mr.. Bates died suddenly,
from heart clot, when he was apparent
ly recovering from an attack Of pneu-
monia.
The life-like appearance common to
all forms of sudden death was remark
ed by a number of people. made a
thorough examination, both with a
stethoscope and a thermometer, the
most infallible methods known to medi-
cal science. DR.. Parks also certified as
to the fact and cause of death. The
family of the late Mr.. Bates telegraph
ed to place the body in a receiving
vault, pending further instructions from
them. This could not be done. They
were advised of the fact of burial. They
never requested the body to be sent
east, and it now rests where placed by
loving friends in the Ilwaco cemetery
awaiting the last call. The whole story
has evidently been gotten up by some
morbid mind, soaked in the depravity
of sensational literature. Sincerely,
w. C.. BELT. M. d.

A Sinking Country.

Col. E. ]. Corthell, an engineer of
note, who is now making surveys for
a SIS, 900, 600 bridge across the Missis-
sippi near New Orleans, says that the
city is steadily sinking, He says that
there is movement on foot among
eminent engineers to have an investi-
cation made into the delta country
with view to ascertain how much
sinking there has been during the last
thirty years. It's a fact that the en-
tire delta country is gradually sink
ing. From number Of bench marks
made by surveyors years ago on trees,
etc, on the gulf coast, and COMPARE
son of the mean level of the gulf now
with what it was twenty years ago, in
connection with the present bench
marks, the fact has developed that the
delta coast has sunken at least foot
withinathe past thirty or forty years
There is no doubt that the city of New
Orleens is some six inches lower than
it was forty years ago. The intention
is to ascertain the exact sinking of the
earth and to investigate the causes
which have prod uced it.

FOUND THE LEG.
Which He Lost Very suddenly Twelve

Which He Lost Very suddenly Twelve
Years Ago.
.Jim Reisinger found his lost
Leg said resident Of Roulette.
Penn, who recently returned from
the Dutlcr county oil regions. "Jim
lost his leg twelve years ago last
spring. He was taking can of
nitro glycerine to Centerville to
shoot an oil we'll. He had it sus-
pended from the reach Of his wagon,
where he thought it would be safe
from any jar and consequent danger
ofyexplosion. Jim would have been
right in his calculation, no doubt, if
1t hadn't been for bear that rose
suddenly from a wallow hole at the
side Of the road, just as the team
was passing.
The unexpected appearance OF the
bear frightened the horses and they
ran away They didn't run far,
though. The wagon struck deep
rut in the road. The suspended can
Of nitro glycerine was knocked with
such force against a stone as the
wagon jolted down that it was ex-
ploded. When Jim came to he was
hanging to the top Of rail fence
fifty feet away from where the nitro
gIyceriae had exploded. If he could
judge from the hole half as big as
cellar that yawned in the road.
There wasn't O fragment OF any thing
onds before there had been team OF
/ horses and spring wagon where the
hole was. Then Jim discovered that
he only had one leg, his right one
having been blown away from just
above the knee.
Fortunately for Jim some drillers
heard the explosion, and hurried to
the spot to see how little there was
left Of Jim and his outfit. They were
amazed to find so much of Jim left,
and they quickly carried him to the
nearest house and got doctor. Jim
was around all right in few weeks.
No evidence OF the previous existence
Of the team. wagon or .Jim's lost leg
had ever been discovered.
Zone day last week George Dick
son chopped down big oak tree
that stood in field 800 yards from
the spot where Jim Reisinger's blow
up occurred. In a crotch of that
tree, fifty feet from the ground
found some funny looking
lodged. He took them to Co
vile TO a doctor.
"Why!' said he, those are
lower bones OF the human leg!
complete set Of them, too''
!. Jim Reisinger's leg, suren said
Dickson.
There couldn't be any doubt
about it No one else had ever lost
q leg in that locality and never found
it, and so it was Jim's long-lost leg,
and no mistake. They boxed the
bones up and sent them to Jim at
Prospect, where he lives now, and
when had left Butler county he
had just written back and said that
while the leg wouldn't be OF much
use. he was glad to see it, and was
much obliged" gis

To Render Cruisers Invisible.

Germany's naval experts have de-

make them as difficult of observation

They recommend that the whole of
the vessels should be uniformly coated
with this color, and that nothing on

American OIL Cake.

The eeding stuffs act, which went
an invoice giving the name and nature
of the article sold, but not necessa-
rily the composition. The sale of any
article for use as food for cattle i'm
plies warranty by the seller that
the article is suita BILE for feeding pur-
poses.
1t was at first feared that our lin
seed cake trade might be injuriously
affected by the law, but alarm would
now appear to be groundless. The
chief houses in Dublin engaged in the
oil cake trade have held meeting and
taken the opinion OF counsel as to
their liability under the new
act. The opinion of counsel is
that the trade may be conducted as
usual, the law complied with and Grim
inal prosecution avoided by invoic-
ing and branding linseed cake which is
95 per cent pure linseed cake, pure, :"
and in the case of American oil cake,
wherein the constituents are not fully
known, American oil cake COM
pound or linseed cake, compound
of linseed and other seed and sub
stances.
This Interpretation Of the law is very
satisfactory, as OF the 900 tons of
linseed or oil cake handled by the
Dublin trade about 2 600 are from the
United States. The, United States also
furnish the Dublin trade about |, 500
tons Of decorticated cotton cake.
There is an immense consumption Of
oil cake In the United Kingdom, the
chief sources Of supply being Russia,
Canada and the United States. AS a
feed it is very popular abroad and the
trade is one well worth keeping.
