neither confesses nor assists it, is not

decision. Indeed it is no figure OF
speech to say that the agricultural and
mining life of the whole country de-
ponds upon the use of the waters for
irrigation, and if rights can be acquir-
ed in waters not navigable, none can
have greater antiquity or equity In
their favor than those which have been
acquired in the Rio Grande valley in
New Mexico Therefore the diversion
of such local waters is not violation
of any set of congress even though the
navigable capacity of the river at a
distance below may become thereby
impaired.
In conclusion it is therefore held
that the Rio Grapde is not navigable
river above FL Paso and that the wat
ers thereof are local waters under To-
cal control by the authority of con-
gress, and that its interruption and di-
| version is not violation of any law of
the United States or any treaty. In
this view of the case it appears that the
bill as amended is without equity and
the injunction heretofore granted
should be dissolved. 1t will be I'M
necessary to decide whether the wat
ers of a navigabie river may be divert
ed as that issue does not arise in this
case. AS the bill is without equity
other questions which have been raised
need not be considered.

q Conauctor,s Escape

1t is related that Conductor Charles
Brown, of freight No 20, from Hunting
ton has very wet experience about 1
O'clock Monday morning near Wealth
erby and had miraculous escape
from drowning.
At Weatherby, "a car of p:ling was cut
out and the caboose with brakes off
took run down the road on it's own
account. Conductor Brown and
several passengers were in the caboose
and were not aware of it being de-
tached from the train. The conductor
went out and thinking to step on car,
fell headlong into Burnt river, which
at this point is very swift. He was
carried down stream about 100 yards
and lodged in some driftwood from
where he was rescued later on by
Brakeman Harry Lemons, nearer dead
than alive.
The caboose ran down the track to
the lime spur, eight miles, before it
stopped, the passengers all the while
being asleep and had no knowledge of
what had transpired until the engine
and tender overlook them.-East Ore

The Tabernacle Lecture.

But few of The Dalles people availed
themselves of the opportunity to see
and hear the Rev. Kitchener in his iE-
t resting and instructive lecture last
evening at the Methodist church.
It certainly is too bad that man of
such culture, after so many years spent
IN deep research of Biblical history,
with thousands of dollars expended to
elaborate work of art such as this
tabernacle re epresents, should be re-
ceiyed with so little concern by our
people.
Is it that we fall short in mental
capacity to appreciate that which is
good and wholesome? or are we care
less people?
1t does seem as if parents should be
more mindful of a right education of
their children and make it an object to
see that the boys and girls gather what
is best and what is beautiful.
This model of the ancient tabernacle
as picture would remain always in
the mind, with it's beautifully carved
pillars, the gold anu silver altars and
vessels, the wonderfully woven mats
and canopys and the exquisite en-
broidery in gold on the blue, purple
and scarlet curtains that marked the
doorways and gaJeways into the court
and then to the tabernacle.
