The weather has been cool and cloudy,
and the river is yet at very low stage
for this time of year. An unusually
high water is certain, though few believe
it will approach the height of 1894. Mr.
DeHuff does not believe the road-bed is
endangered, though looking for very high
water. A sudden and continued spell
of warm weather would precipitate a
vast volume of water from the Snake
and upper Columbia, and there is no
telling what height the river would at

Dr. De Kennet's Lecture.


The illustrated lecture on Russia last
night was very entertaining and in
structive, as previously promised. "The
Heart OF Russia" Is Moscow and the
veiws were principally taken from that
city. The chief buildings of interest
were the Kremlin and church of st.
Basil, the latter the most fantastic and
gaudy-colored, in existence. The archi-
tect was an italian whose eyes were put
out by Ivan the Terrible tor fear he
would design a handsomer one. The
Kremlin was the former palace of the
emperor, surrounded by sixteen miles of
walls of masonry, twenty feet high and
nineteen feet thick. The great need of
Russia is railroads. The lecturer drew
a contrast between the politics of Russia
and the United States. Towns and COM
munities select their own mayor and
other officers by ballot, and not by ap-
'pointment as generally supposed. DR..
De Kennel said that while in America a
man would spend $4,000 to secure a
$S 900 Office. in Russia it was hard to
induce a man to take an Office, and had
ITO be coaxed and fattered a good deal
before he would accept the nomination.
The cause of this is there il: no salary at
tached to Russian municipal offices. In
like manner there are higher assemblies
of the.p people who select judges and at

The religion of Russia is the Greek
church, resembling the Roman Catholic
in some respects, bat there are four
principal points of difference. The Rus
sian church does not admit nor recog-
nize the temporal power of the pope !;
the priests must be married men instead
of celibates the churches have no seats !;
and the choirs are all composed of men,
Over the principal door which leads to
the kremlin is statue of Jesus, and no
living man OIL this earth may go through
that door without removing his hat, be
he monarch or plebeian. A very good
likeness of the present emperor,
Nickolaus II, and the empress was
shown. Nickolaus was described by the
lecturer as being the best of emperors,
the least autocratic, enterprising. and
we'll loved by his 12o. 900, 600 subjects.
Leaving Russia, DIR. De Kannet pro-
duced an excellent likeness of the Mid
winter fair, which he treated with mar
yelous mechanical effects in lighting,
coloring, ETC., the whole dissolving into
patch of magnificent clouds, colored
with all the accuracy of nature. There
were also some excellent Columbia river
views, which drew forth the admiration
of the audience. The entertainment con-
cluded with a magnificent allegorical
picture of Columbia bearing the flag of
our country, prefaced by the remark,
81 will now show you flag which never
saw defeat.''

THE MAN WAS KILLED.
A Fatal Ending of the Accident the
Other Day.

A few days ago THE CHRONICLE spoke
of man who had lain next to the track,
with his head on the rail, and escaped
without injury. Today the Oregonian
reports the finding OF his body. His in
juries must have escaped the hasty ex-
animation made by the trainmen, and
his apparent stupor from drunkenness
would have been the same from the
blow received by the train.
The name of the man was NJ. NJ.
Brummet, evidently of ST. Paul. Marion
county.
The body was not discovered until yes
terday morning, when the engineer OF
No. 1, coming west. about o'clock, saw
what he thought was man lying asleep
alongside the track. He reported the
fact at Troutdale, and the section boss,
on going to the place, found the man
dead, and also cold and stiff, showing
that he had been dead many hours. The
remains were taken on handcar to
Troutdale, and Coroner Cornelius tele-
graphed for.
An examination of the body showed
the face cut open from the nose up
diagonally across the left eye, and the
skull crushed, the result of blow from
the sharp edge of the COW catcher on the
locomotive. The rest of the body was
intact, without even bruise, and the
jury's and coroner's conclusions were
that Brummet, who was under the in
1uence of liquor, had lain down outside
of the track, which sloped off, with hiS
head resting on the track, in which posi-
ton, and being drunk, he fell into
deep sleep, and was ready victim for
the engine when thundering along in
the night at a 45-mile gait.
