the atmosphere and be of some bene-
fit to growing crops.
One OF the special features of Dufur'

their dignity, protesting Trey were
honest men, above suspicion and In
nocent OF any crime, threatening dire
vengence if he dill not depart and leave
them alone. This bluff however did
not satisfy Mr.. Seufert of their inno-
cence, and he called upon Sheriff
Driver Sunday to look the matter
up. When Mr. Driver reached their
camp. short distance fro n the
Seufert cannery, they had left, and
he located them in clump of brush
on Three-mile, and when he called on
them to surrender, they undertook to
run bluff on the sheriff, but he was
not to be intimidated, and brought
them to the county Jail. The stolen

Mrs. Leonard Has an Exciting Experience
In the Columbia.
Last Saturday afternoon Mr. and
Mrs. E. A. Leonard, accompanied by
two others were coming to The Dalles
in sail boat, and when near Crates
point, were becalmed while passing in
front of the scow Flyer, that was
coming up the river loaded with wood.
The current was very swift, and before
they could apply the oars the boat was
sucked under the bow of the scow.
All but Mrs. Leonard succeeded in
freeing themselves from the boat and
were taken on board the scow, but
Mrs. Leonard remained in the little
craft and was carried through tt e
water the entire length of the scow,
which is about SO feet long, coming up
at the stern, somewhat bruised and al
most drowned, but still alive. A boat
was lowered to rescue Mrs. Leonard.
but she weighs about 200 pounds and
those who went to her rescue were un-
able to take her into the boat, and
they towed her ashore, where she was
assisted onto dry land. Mrs Leonard
indeed had a narrow escape from
drowning, but aside from receiving IA
few bruises and a serious scare, she
was not injured.

FIRE IN PORTLAND
The weidIer Mill Burned Causing a. Loss
of S15o,OO0

The entire plant of the Willamette
Steam Mill, Lum bering & Manufactur-
ing Company, better known as Weld
ler's mill, was destroyed by fire FRI
day afternoon. The loss is approxi-
mately $780, 900, and is covered by in
surance to the amount of $4,000, dis
tributed in small policies among
several local agents. The origin OF
the fire was accidental, and owing to
the extremely dry condition of the
mill and yard, its spread was So rapid
that nothing could be saved. Robert
Mays, an employe of the mill, has not
been seen since the fire started, and
it is believed by his fellow-workmen
that he was overcome while endeavOr-
ing to make his escape and has been
burned to death.
At $3.50 o'clock in the afternoon
Joseph Kane, an operative working on
the second or main floor of the saw
mill building. discovered small flame
which had burned hole through the
floor directly over a small saw tech
nically known as the pony" Kane
raised an alarm of fire, and running to
the alarm box on the premises-box
43-he turned in an alarm, while a
companion blew small steam whistle
in the mill, which is the signal to
shut down. Ten minutes after the
alarm was turned in, and before the
big engines could be brought to a
standstill. the flames had burst through
the roof of the frame sawmill building,
crossed and caught the large frame
sash and door factory 20 feet west of it.

and forced the engineer and fireman
to leave the engines and run for their
lives. The mill. together with the
entire stock of lumber, was a total
loss. The fire was under control at
$50, after burning two hours. The
mill was built in 1872. and had done
larsre business. Two hundred men are
thrown out of employment by the
burning of the mill.

Tade's Big Damages.

In the United States circuit court,
last Saturday, in the suit of the Uuited
States VS.. l. 81. Taffe, to condemn
lands at Cello for the boat railway to
be built by the government, verdict
was rendered in favor of Taffe for Sl4,
200. Mr.. Taffe has fishery at Cello,
and his claim is that the boat railway
running across his land will cut OFF a
spur between the river and his fish
house, and will also take from him a
valuable gravel pit, containing placer
gold, and worth great deal to him.
Mr.. raffe's fishery il one of the most
valuable in the river, and if it will be
ruined by the boat railway, the dam
ages are none too high.

Freight Business Booming.

There is reason for encouragement in
the following statement made today
by J. A. Borie, agent for the Oregon
Railway & Navigation Company at
PendleJon, Says the East Oregonian:
"Freight business is booming just
now, an unusual thing for this season
of the year. We do not calculate on
doing very much in this line at this
time, in comparisons with other
seasons. But large quantities of freight
are coming in and our freight handlers
are hustling. Freight is coming in in
car lots indicating that merchants are
buying more literally. The volume
now is much larger than it was year
ago, fact that causes much gratifica-
tion to our people,"

A Monument for Her.

A $3.50 monument has been ordered

and was buried at Haystack last sum-
mer. The monument is in the form
of the statue OF woman, 5 feet 4
inches tall, holding aloft the torch OF
liberty. With the pedestal, the height
of the monument will be about IL feet.
The people of aaysta X, irrespective
of creed, have subscribed for the
monument, for they all loved the
s'little lady," as they called her. The
monument will be unveiled at Hay

the instructions and caused his dis
eased horses to be dipped twice, with
curative results, and that many OF
these have been shot since the remedy
was applied. Cash Cash says that the
men who are employed to shoot the
diseased animals do their shooting
sometimes at very long range, and
that it not infrequently occurs that
the horse aimed at is missed and an
other and healthy animal receives the
gums contents and falls. Charley
Minthorn and Cash Cash further say
that the tails and names are cut from
the dead horses for the sake of gain.
They deny that the umen have any
right to carry off any part OF the
horses though they may be clothed
with authority to kill.

Dwelling House Burned.

A large house belonging to c: A.
Bordens, located on the bluff north
east of the race track, was burned some
time between ! and 3 o'clock this
morning. The fire was not discovered
until the house was entirely consumed
and had it been the building could not
have been saved, as it was out of reach
of the water supply. The building had
not been occupied since last Friday.
when the two families who had form
erly lived in it moved out, and as there
had been no fires in the building since
that time, the fire was evidently of in.
cendiary origin. The building was
valued at Sl400, and was insured in
the German American for $1,000.

CATHODE RAYS.
Successful Experiments Made With Them
In This CITY

Successful Experiments Made With Them
in This City.
Joseph A. Macarthur, electrician for
The Dalles Electric Light Co., has
been conducting a number Of expert
ments with rays, and is much en-
couraged with the success he has thus
far achieved. He has an induction
battery and peculiar system of con-
Meeting the electrial circuit, of his own
invention, by which all the force of
the circuit is utilized. This he has
attached to one of the most improved
Crooks tubes for producing the
cathode rays, and is enabled to pro.
duce light of powerful penetration.
With an exposure of fifteen minutes
he has been able to photograph two
sets of engineers tools through half
inch of solid walnut. getting perfect
negative; under an hours exposure he
got perfect photograph of his hand,
showing all the bones and joints as
plainly as if the picture were taken
from hand from which the flesh had
been removed.
Today Mr.. Macarthur. assisted by
DR.. Holiister, made a test of the rays
for practical purpose, and hile the
experiment was not entirely satis-
factory, they are encouraged to make
another test. The subject Of the oper-
alton was NJ. M. Norris. who two years
ago got the elbow of his right arm
caught in the gear of a threshing
machine, and had the bones badly
crushed. The wound has not healed
properly, and DR. Hollister is con-
vinced that portion OF the bone has
decayed. To ascertain the location OF
the diseased portion of the bone he
desired to secure photograph of the
elbow. Mr.. Norris arm was SUBJ
jected to an exposure of sixty-five
minutes, with his arm lying on
sensitive negative plate and UNDER
meath the cathode ray. The plate was
then taken to Mrs. Hogan for de-
velopement, and while it showed the
outlines of the bones, it was not suffi-
GENTLY distinct to meet the require
ments of the surgeon. Had the ex-
posure lasted longer. the experiment
would have proved success. Another
experiment will be made in few days.
lasting an hour and half, when it is
expected perfect photograph of the
bones of the elbow will be secured.
