SWEPT TO DEATH.
FREDERIC KIRN CAUGHT BY AN
AVALANCHE ON MOUNT HOOD.
Attempting to Make The Ascent, He
strayed From The Path, And Was
Hurled Over The Precipice.
Special Wire to Sunday Light.

Special Wire to Sunday Light.
Portland, Oregon, July 2l.-Frederick
| kim, an Abba grocervman, met a
fearful death on Newton Clarke glacier
on the north slope of Mount Hood,
Thursday afternoon, In the ascent of
the mountain he strayed from the
path and was caught by mass of
sliding rock, which carried him down
the steep side of the mountain to the
brink of a cliff, over which is body
was plunged to the rocks, 400 below.
kim left Portland late this week, and
reached Cloud Cap inn Sunday after
noon, coming on foot from Hood river.
In the afternoon he asked Mr.. w. A.
Langille, of the inn, several questions
about the ascent of the mountain, de-
claring his intention to make it the
following day. He declined the SER
vices of a guide. He had examined
the road with his field glasses, he said,
and would have no difficulty in follow
ing it all the way.
He retired early and arose Thursday
morning at 4 o'clock, drinking a cup of
coffee before he started on the climb,
which he did at 4:30 all alone.
" hCl at OsOU ySoNClNoy dLbCA hOOh
Kim did not return, Mr.. Langille be-
came alarmed for his safety, and star
ted in search of him. He soon found
that he had good cause for alarm.
Kirn's trail could be easily followed
to within 700 feet of the summit. At
this point it varies from the regular
trail, which it had thus far followed,
and led to a treacherous, rock-covered
district near the head of Newton Clark
glacier. Here Mr.. Langille discovered
to his horror, that the unfortunate man
had been caught in mass of sliding
rock, which he had probably loosened
with LIS feet, and had been carried
| with it swiftly to the the brow of a
precipice below, over which the burrows
| made in snow by the small avalanche
disappeared. Working his way eau
| tiosuly, and with the skill of the vet
eran mountaineer that ne is, to the
| edge of the cliff, Mr.. Langille saw the
body lying among the lose rock far
below at the mouth of the glacier.
Kirn's death had been swift and terri
BILE.
| 1t was then $3.50 and growing rapidly
| dark. Mr.. Langille, being all alone,
could not bring the body back to the
inn, and after nightfall would have
: had to take desperate chances even to
reach it. Had there been any chance
of the mans being alive, he would
have taken the latter course, but no
one could have survived such a fall
an instant.
He therefore returned to the inn and
telephoned the news to the police sta
ton.
kim had lived in Portland a long
time, and was very well known. He
was well advanced in years, but was
vigorous and healthy. He left Port
land expecting to make the ascent OF
the mountain Sunday, and to return
early in the week. He little knew
what a fate was in store for him.
The body was brought back to Port
land today

An amusing story comes from India.
1t concerns distinguished officer who
was constantly embracing some new
hobby, much to the disgust of his
brother officers and to the annoyance
of the soldiers on whom the hobbies
frequently involved extra duty. His
latest fad was amateur gardening. One
day he was strolling past the officers
quarters. when he saw a couple of sol
diers busily raking a lot of gravel
stones over patch of earth. "Ah,
men, I'm glad to see you taking an in
terest in gardening. It's a very nice
occupation" One of the men, not know
ing him by sight, replied: Nice, is it?
Umph! That's ali you know. We
wouldn't be hiding this earth with
gravel if we didn't have an old fool of
a general that's mad on gardening.
Here we are scraping these stones about
in case he should pass this way and
want to grow cabbages on the bit of
earth underneath. Harper Round

There are 225 horses in good and req

more than seven, years old on joining

He is a powerful coal black fellow

meditatively upon the sights of Seventh
street near Franklin avenue. But the
fire alarm changes all that. He losses
his head aloft. His eyes CLEAN with
imprisoned fire. His limbs are tense
with excitement and he bursts from his
stall with the speed of cannon ball.
He dashes to the middle space before
the hose cart and bends his handsome
head beneath the suspended harness
rack. He rushes away to the fire as
to a gambol in the pasture he left not
many years ago.

Which you will take and which refuse!

Naught to tell but the voice within
Where right shall cease and wrong begin;
You will be tempted; men have been.
For strange roads cross roads everywhere
And you at the 1unction-boy, beware!

FARM AND GARDEN.
ECONOMIZING FOOD.
Early Winter Is the Worst Time to Re
duce Cattle RatiOns.

Early Winter is the Worst Time to Re-
duce Cattle RatIOns.
While it does not pay to ever put
live stock on short rations, if it is to be
done at all let it be at any other time
than the early winter. The animal is IL
machine for converting some portion of
his coarse food into finished products,
and his energy in conversion depends
very largely upon his physiological con-
dition as well as upon his constitutional
power.
These facilities of theirs to produce
the materials we desire are natural to
be sure, but they have been greatly eX-
aGgerated By domestication, full feed
and good care. But the animal has also
himself to look out for, and it is a nat
ural law that under circumstances of
distress everything else stops that the
vital processes may go on. That is, that
under hard conditions these extra ac-
tivities stop, and we get little product
from the animal.
But what difference does it make at
which end of the winter this shortening
of rations comes, if it be to come at all ?
Much, and for the reason that sudden
and violent changes are disastrous,
physiological conditions considered. If
they come to us gradually we can ac-
custom ourselves to things that, if sud
denly brought upon US, would prove
fatal.
AS the animal goes into winter quar-
tiers all his habits of life are changed,
and changed suddenly. He goes from
green feed to dry; from uniformly
warm weather into great extremes of
cold and heat; from the free atmos-
phere of the field to the close air of the
stable, if he be lucky enough to get the
stable. Their powers of resistance and
adaptation are severely tried. If he
now also suffer diminution of food his
resources are cut off, and if his arti-
ficially developed faculties in seIf-de-
Tense cease to act, they will be slow in
deed to resume their activities.
The reverse policy is pursued by care
full stOckmen who seek to make the
change from autumn to winter as light
as possible, and by extra feed and care
to fortify the animal against more or
less distressing circumstances. The
change from winter to spring and sum-
mer is not only into increasingly bet
ter conditions, but the changes are
marked by less violence.--Farmer S
Voice.
