And Still Another.

The following, clipped from the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer, tells of still another
steamer for the Yukon:
"Mr. Hamilton yesterday received
telegram from the Chicago Office of the
North American Transportation & Trad
ing Company, instructing him to reserve
space on either the Portland or the
Cleveland for the material to build
steel steamer for the Yukon river fleet
of the company. The ribs and plates
will come ready to be riveted together,
and the work has been almost completed
in Chicago. The idea of the steel steam
er, Mr.. Hamilton says, is that of light
draught and quick building, all that is
necessary in construction after arriving
at Fort Get There, the place where the
boat will be put together, being the riv-
citing of the plates to the frames. The
dispatch said that Edward Boomings
would come out with the material and
superinteud the building. The new
steamer is already named the Captain
John G. Barr. 1t is not expected that
she will be ready to take any part in
this YEARS. business. She is to be 125
feet long and % feet beam, her dead
weight in knock-down condition being
100 tons.

The harvest is only about one-third
over, and perhaps hardly that. The re-
cent warm winds will cause some of the
very late spring sown grain to shrivel,
and will cause some loss in the cutting
of the fall grain, on account of the latter
shatterIng.
The wheat crop of the United States
is estimated this year at $4,000, 900
bushels, and the rise of 5 cents bushel
day before yesterday added $50, 900, 900
to its value, and that means as much as
is expected to be taken from the Klon-
dixie next year.
And now the scientists have turned
their attention to the great lakes, and
assert that in the course of time, they do
not say how long, the Niagara will cease
to carry the lake waters to the ocean,
but that they will break through from
Lake Michigan and empty into the Mis-
sissippi. 1t would be an easy matter to
divert the flow into the canal now build
ing from Chicago to the waters of the
Mississippi, and so leave all Canada
without water transportation on the St.
Lawrence.

L. G. Coleman returned to Jackson

While at that city he had four sugar
beets, raised on Griffin creek, analysed
at the Spreckels refinery. The result
showed that they averaged ten ounces in
weight, contained 1858 per cent of sugar
and co-eficient of purity of s5 per cent.
the percentage of saccharine matter is
high, especially as the beets are not ma
tured. Those containing IA per cent
sugar, with a co-eficient purity of over
80 per cent, are considered good. Should
beets raised in other parts of Jackson
county turn out equally we'll, factory
may be put up in the near future.
Cyrus G.. Harwood of Milton was in
town the other day, having nearly re-
covered from a peculiar misfortune that
nearly cost him his life. He had been
at Meacham, and was driving down the
mountain toward Pendleton, when some
insect lit upon his hand. He brushed
it away and was shocked by a sudden
sting. In few minutes he fell from his
wagon, crazed with pain. He was
found on the road unconscious and con-
veyed to a mountain house, where he
was sick for several days and came near
to deaths door. AS soon as he could
bear removal he was taken to his bone
at Milton, and has since grown stronger.
Mr.. Harwood has no idea what the
thing was that bit him, as he did not
pee it when he brushed it off. He can
,onlyS theorize that it may have been
some poisonous spider that made it's
home in the brush along the roadside

warrants ''only for such expenditures as
are clearly authorized by the statutes" :"
It appears that the governors ''sal-
ary'' is made up of the following items ::
Salary, authorized by the constitution,
$500; prison inspector, $500; asylum
trtstee, $500; domestic animal commits
sidn, $2e0; trustee mute school, $3.50 ;
trhstee reform school, $3.50; expenses
asylum trustee, 500; supervising pub
Aic works, $1,000. Total $495O.
The three items, supervising public
works, $1,000; asylum trustee, $500 I;
Prison inspector, $500, are not 'tplainly
Authorized by statute" so it is said that
the governor will loss them unless he
consents to call an extra session of the
legislature to meet the requirements.
