DOOM OF THE OXEN.
Wire Cables and Steam Takes Their Places
In Logging,

Wire Cables and Steam Takes Their Places
In Logging.
The days of the bullwhacl1er, with
his indispensable CAD and profanity,
are about at an end, so far as the log
ging business in Oregon is concerned,
and the swifter, more powerful and
more convenient steam engine and wire
cable will take the place of the bull
whacker, while his team will be con-
verted into beef. There is not full
supply of logs on hand to keep the mills
running this winter, as but few loggers
kept camps running during the sum.
mer. To carry on logging in the win.
ter in this state with oxen is impossible,
as slkid-roads are required, and teams
travelling over these in the winter soon
make great holes between the skids,
into which the oxen would be lost.
So steam engines and wire cables,
which have proved success, are to be
introduced generally in the logging
camps of this section. At Cathla-
met, Mr.. Julius Ordway is pre-
pairing to log the timber off a
square mile of land by means of the
engine and cable. Even the team of
oxen, which has heretofore been kept
to drag in scattered logs, is TO be done
away with, and the entire work will be
done by steam. With two engines he
expects to clear every log off the square
mile without much trouble about mov-
ing. The engine has two drums, on
one of which is wound up the cable for
hauling logs and on the other smaller
rope for hauling the cable back out
into the timber again. A sixty-horse
power engine yanks the biggest kind
of log out of the woods'a run, no
skid road being needed. Hillocks and
all other distractions are plov,ed out
of the way, and, when the log in deliv-
cred, the cable is run back for another
while team of bulls would be turning
around. This plan is also much cheap
er than the old, as it cost about one
thousand dollars to keep up bull
team during the season. With an en-
gine, logging can be carried on over
any kind of ground at any time of the
year, and more rapid movement of
logs may hereafter be expected in this
region. on.-Portland 0regonian.

never actually knew anybody who
kept his coffin in his house, said an un-
dertaber, but l have read of such
things, and ! hnve no doubt they are
true, just as believe the stories of
some women keeping in the bottom OF
bureau drawers their own grave clothes
which they made themselves. But
men sometimes choose, if not the par
ticular caslet in which they want to
be buried, the style of coffin that they
prefer, and | knew of one man who
drew the plans for the casket in which
he was buried. He had his own ideas
of what was most suitable, and we
made casket in accordance with the
drawings which he furnished, and then
boxed it up and stored it for him. He
was man advanced in years. 1t is in
teresting to note that the casket SO
planned had square ends and perfectly
straight sides and ends; in fact, in
shape it was precisely the same as
the present most advanced style OF
modern burial casket, which was not
introduced until some years afterward.
1t Is not at all unusual for men to
look at caslSets, express admiration Of
some of them and say they would like
to be buried in such or such style
These men might be simply friends
who had come to see me, or they might
be here on business, but not with re-
gard to funeral. Some of the modern
burial caskets are very costly and
beautiful, and as unlike the old-fash-
ioned coffin as could be imagined. 1t
is no wonder that men should admire
them, but it doesn't follow at all that
they expect soon to need one.
A few months ago there came in a
man and his wife, people OF
perhaps fifty years, and l should
say well to do, who wanted to look at
the caskets, or rather he did. They
came to very beautiful casllet of ma
hogany, one of modern style with
square ends and straight sides and
ends, and carved little, but not over
elaborately. Evidently he had heard
of such casket before or had seen
one, and so was familiar with it, and
he admired it greatly.
There" he said to his wife, calling
her by name, "That is the kind of casls-
ct that would like to be buried in;'

An Emperor's Uncomfortable Life.

In spite of his high prerogatives and
semi-divine attributes, Prof. Douglas
thinks that there are probably few
more miserable men in the world than
the emperor of China. One of the
titles of this ''Vicegerent of Heaven"
is that of THE Solitary Man." and
this, in Prof. Douglas opinion, best
describes his normal condition: for, al
though surrounded by fatterers both
male and female, the short span of life
which commonly falls to the lot of the
Son of Heaven has few of the comforts
which usually belong to kings. At
two O'Clock in the morning, no matter
whether the snow is deep on the ground
or the summer dawn is just beginning
to strike, his rest is disturbed to re.
ceive ministers, while by seven or eight
he is prepared to witness a dramatic
performance in the palace theater or
to offer sacrifice, according as the ritual
might determine. Deprived of all per-
sonal knowledge of the outer world,
the emperor naturally falls into the
hands of those who are best able to
latter and csjole him. London News.
