psneu, WOulu do s0cuTely neUiiieu
up by d wall Of rock and body of.
water, with no probable means Of
saving my life unless / could bore
my way out through a hill Of rock
or swim across the river. The for
mer way would be wholly impossi-
BILE, and the latter, too, with me,
for / could not swim a lick. But
l finally made up my mind to lie
down and take good nights sleep,
rain or no rain, realizing the con-
dition ] would be in if it should.
soon fell asleep, and did not
wake until the next morning, oil
though during the night the light
ming flashed with vivid glare, the
thunders leaped and howled with
a tumultuous roar, and the rain
poured with all its might. Not
much to my surprise the river was
flowing, roaring, laundering in the
rock house at my heels. There ]
was, completely hemmed up, at my
back by a rock house and in front
by a wild, raging river, and could
not swim a single lick, and there
was no signs of it falling, it then
raining tremendously.
| now began to realize the dan
uer in which l was. The rock
house was full of shelves, and I
climbed into the highest one and
was safe for awhile. But the river
was rising faster and faster and was
about to reach me. Then ! began
to think more seriously about the
danger / was in, and resolved in
some way to get out. | harbOred
the thought of making an attempt
to swim out, but was afraid to I'M
dertake that for fear / would swim
like a rock and drown. My life
was being elden yered every min
ute, and something had to he done
and that Immediately. | soon
worked out a plan to make an es-
cape from the impending danger.
Now, dear readers, do not be as
tOnished and brand this as a lie,
when tell you what my plan was.
Do say it sounds more like some
fairy tale than like reality. Many
hunters life has been saved by
ways which are miraculous to those
who have not had the thrilling eX-
perience of a hunter in some cir
cumstance.
But to proceed, / will now tell
how l saved myself from a watery
grave: My dog was uncommonly
large, and, of course, could swim
like duck. The thought struck
me that I could tie myself to my
dog and let him swim me across
the river. l did this very thing,
and my good dog swan me across
safely. You can imagine that I
was quite jubilant over the results.
Attributing all honor to my dog for
same, / then began to make "blue
streak" in the direction of 'home,
sweet home" having no thought of
ever taking another coon hunt in
Powell county.
We owe our independence, peace,
happiness, greatness and prosper
| ity to our revolutionary sires, but
owe the existence of my life to
my dog. BRAD NATION.

A special from Washington City says
that 3. T. Randolph, of Seattle, has not
gwen up hope of securing the release
from the light house board of his stone

confident than ever that favorable act
ION will be taken on his claim. One
thlng is certain, the rights of Messrs.
Byron Barlow & Co., contractors for
the Puget Sound drydock, who have
been granted permit to take from
these quarries all the stone required in
the construction of said dock, free of
charge, will be carefully guarded, and
III case the light house board shall re-
lease the quarry location to Randolph
1t will be strictly provided that Barlow
q 20. shall continue to enjoy the same
privileges that they now have under
the permit of the light house board.

STATE CAPITOL NOTES.
A resolution, favoring the election of
q. S. senators by popular vote, has
passed both houses.

Of the number of bills passed by the
state legislature, the past week, prob
ably none created so much enthusiasm
as the local option and woman suffrage
bills. Friends and foes of both meas
uIes were omnipresent and all worked
hard either for the success or defeat of
the measure. The interest was so great
that Pres. Luce had hard work to main
tain order. The vote for local option
stood:
Ayes-Belknap, Brown, Campbell,
Frow, Foss, Harper, Helm, Hutchin-
son, Lewis, Miller, McManus, Pussy,
Range, Sergeant, Shaw, Taylor, Wood
ing-17.
Noes Deckebach, Donohoe, Dorr,
Easterdly, Field, Gilbert, Hall, Horn,
Ide, Kellogg, Lesh, Megler, Roberts,
Van Houten, Washburn, Wilson-16.
Absent-Frink.
The roll call showed seventeen votes
in the affirmative and sixteen in the
negative, but, failing to receive eighteen
votes, majority of the senate, the bill
was lost.
Senator Kellogg later occasioned sur
prise by moving for reconsideration.
He voted against the bill, and his mo-
ton gives credence to the belief that he
will vote for it when recOnsidered. If
he does, it will pass.
The vote on the woman suffrage bill
in the senate, stood:
Ayes-Belknap, Campbell, McManus,
Crow, Deckebach, Easteaday, Field,
Foss, Harper, Helm, Horn, Hutchinson,
Ide. Lesh, Lewis, Miller, Range, Ser
geant, Shaw, Taylor, Van Houten,
Wilson, Wooding-23.
Noes-Brown, Donohoe, Dorr, Gill
bert, Hall, Kellogg, Megler. Pusey,
Roberts, Washburn NO.
Senator Deckebach gave notice that
he would at the proper time move to
reconsider.

understanding Of the meaning OF "an.

destroy law and to bring contempt
upon established institutions.
And by that definition Judge Moore,
who diverts the Law from its purpose
and destroys the public confidence In
the equality Of Justice. is a greater An
