Judgment, mean relic Of barbarism.
The fact that some women do not desire

Good Hose Purchased.

The fire and water committee of the
city council ordered 500 feet of hose of
the Maltese Cross brand yesterday. The
kind ordered is 45 pounds to the length,
4-ply hose, with 5-ply capped ends,
coupling ~ threads to the inch. The
hose is guaranteed to stand pressure of
$50 lbs to the square inch. There is no
better hose than the Maltese Cross. 1t
has been the standard hose for many
years, and has more fine points than
any other brand known to the writer.
1t is manufactured by the Gutta Percha
Mfg. Co. Six or seven years ago the
city purchased some of the same brand,
and Engineer Brown informs a reporter
that it is now in better condition, is
more serviceable and far safer to use
than other kinds which have been pur-
chased since that time. The hose pur-
chased, while admirable for tournament
purposes, was not bought on that ac-
count, but for service, wear and tear
and actual use. Its good qualities con-
sist in being lighter to handle, more of
it can be carried on the cart, it reels
closer and does not crack. The Maltese
Cross is an ideal hose for all purposes.

Mr.. Divers Talks Prosperity.

James Divers has returned from the
famous British Columbia mining dis
trict, and tells of probably the most
prosperous region of country in North
America today. Mr.. Divers was for
merly engineer OF the electric light COM
pany at The Dalles. During his absence
he has developed and owns four good
mining properties, and expects to real
ize $4,000 from their sale. These are
located near Nelson and Deer Park.
The latter place is a new camp which is
filling up rapidly. On his return trip
be passed through Roslyn, and found
there is now 1000 people there. The
Leroy mine has just declared another
5 per cent dividend, amounting to $685.
900, making 5000, 900 altogether. While
absent he met Mr.. G. NJ. Sterling and
Mr.. F. T. Esping, both well known resi-
dents of The Dalles. Both are doing
we'll and have all the work they can. at
tend to. at good wages. Mr.. Divers
says the great need at the mining camps
is lum Der. For want of it hundreds of
of families are living in tents, who would
suffer from cold were the season farther
advanced, There is plenty of timber in
the neighborhood. but little mill ma
chinery. A sawmill of ordinary capa-
city could clear $40 900 within year.

WARNED OF DEATH.
Frances Kreft Prophesfed Her Demise
Death of p. Cross Recalled.

1t seems that on rare occasions it is
given to mortals to know that their span
of life is about to be completed. In his
funeral sermon over the body of Frances
Kreft, Rev. Gray told of the deceased
having had several presentiments of ap-
preaching death during the month pre-
vious. She had spoken to her parents
several times about 1T, as we'll as to the
neighbors. OF course those who listened
to her prophecy made sport of it, but
the girl could not be persuaded out of
the notion, and even left orders concern
ing her funeral which were carried out
by the grief-distracted parents. These
instructions included who was to preach
the funeral sermon and where her body
should be laid.
Another case of a death following
an irresistible presentiment is that of
Fred Cross, who died in a railroad acci-
dent January 4th, 1890. He was fire.
at the old ice house below Hood River,
and resulted in his death by scalding.
He spent the evening of his departure
with Mr.. w. E. Sylvester's family, and
they noted he was in great perturbation.
He paced the foor at intervals and it
was evident something was preying on
his mind. In response to questions he
said he felt that he was to be killed on
this trip, and didn't want to go. He
was asked why, then, he allowed him.
self to go. He replied there was no ex-
ira men on the list that night. He had
tried hard to get substitute, but
failing, was compelled to go him
self. Before that, also, he had re-
lated dream of the night previousI
in which it seemed he was burning
to death, and saw standing around him
the ones to whom he was talking. That
was the last time the Sylvester family
saw him alive. He left on the trip and
was burned to death.
Where the impression which foretola
death in these two cases originated IS
mystery, It is not reasonable to SUP
pose that II came from the individual's
own mind, nor the mind of any other
human being. The facts of its trans
mission and reception belong to a sci
ence impossible for finite minds to
