Special Dispatch 70 the Post-Intelligencer.
CHEHALfS. June A-Ths county com
nissioners have decided 10 build two
bridges across the Chehaiis this summer. IN
place o< those washed out by the doodN
last winter. One viii be a. ClaQuato. aud
viii cost between s. .ee0 and a M. and the
other at cerfraaa- The latter viii be the
second largest bridge in the county. re-
curing span nearly so feet long ard
half a mile of trestie work II VIII cost
from s. 90 10 $ia.6a.
The board had concluded some time ago
that the financial condition Of the county
was such that il would be impossible TO
build these two bridges. and the matter
coming up In such a way that one could
not be built unless both were built, IL
seemed as Ii the two largest and most pros
porous communities in the county would
be put TO great inconvenience for an In
definite time. However tax collections this
spring have been unexpectedly large. For
May. incluuing the proceeds OF the settle
ment with the Northern Pacific. they
amounted to over $4,000. This made it
easier for the commissioners 10 act on the
bridge question. They viii probably call
for bids a; the next session. which VIII be
held commencing July 5.

The Original Of windfalI.

The origin Of the expression "windfalI, ("
which Is used when one wishes to refer to
streak OF good luck, dates back to the
time OF William tho Cosqueror. At that
time 10 was criminal offense to cut tim
Der In the British forests without royal
consent. All that could be gathered for
fuel or other purposes was such limbs as
the wind should happen to break and cast
to the ground. On this account the peas.
ants hailed a great windstorm as bless.
Ing, because IL was apt to cast enough Of
'windfalls" for winter frewood. From
this old time forestry custom comes the
modern application of the expression. At
one time it was secreed that only such
limbs and whole trees'as should fall dur
Ing the three summer months could be
used as firewood, but the upjustpess Of the
act was SO plainly apparent that no at
tempt was ever made 10 enforce it.-St

CANINE ENDURANCE.
ssory Of . Dog Who Went Twenty-Five
Days without Food.

! Some very long snrviyals are on record,
but nOne perhaps, more interesting or re-
| markable than well authenticated case
which comes from France. Mr. Gely, a
superintendent at Dampierre In the de-
| partnient OF the upper Saone, has dog
named RigOlet, which, although past 10
years old and almost to0thless, has never
abated the activity OF his warfare against
al the animals OF the field and especially
against foxes A short time ago as Mr..
6ely, with his dog, was passing the mouth
OF a fox burrow Rigolet made a sudden
and furious descent on the burrow, show
ing plainly that IL was inhabited. Ii had
50 spacious an opening that the dog forced
himself into it quite out Of sight. Pres
entity the master heard the tunlult of a
combat within. The dog was barking
hercely. Then there came a sound OF a
caving In. and the noise ceased. Either
Rigolet had been silenced by the fox, or he
had been engulfed by the collapse Of the
gallery in which the fight was taking
place. Mr.. Gely set about digging him
out, but found the ground so stony that
be was obliged 10 give up, and the old dog
was left 10 his fate.
6ely went home and after mourning
the dog a few days thought of him no
more, Twenty-one days went by. 1t hap.
pened that the miller, with friend said
There's the place whore poor old Rigolet
was buried alive" Just then he heard a
feeble whining which seemed to come
from underground. He called and lis
tened. and the whining was repeated
louder than before. There was certainly
q dog within the fox burrow. The miller |
ran 10 apprise Gely, who this time brought |
picks and shovels and sufficient number |
Of hands to open the burrow. After five |
hours of active digging the old dog was |
lnearthed at a considerable depth. As |
soon as he was brought to the open air |
Rigolet fell to the ground, apparently dead |
But his master succeeded in reviving him |
with doses of beef tea and milk, and the
Did dog was seemingly as good ms ever. Ii |
became question whether he had tasted |
N the burrow for the 22 days, or whether
be had subsisted on the fox, which he GER.
ainly found. 1t was assumed by his mas
er that he was too nearly toothless TO have
'een able to deyour fox, and those who
lug him out declared that there was no
ign that he had had anything to eat

Indiana Farmer Captured q Waterfowl of
Unknown Species. b.

Unknown Species. ~
William Waltz, farmer living near
Hagerstown, Ind. while passing through
his cornfeld recently, suddenly came
upon large bird sitting on the ground.
Without attempting to get away the
bird suddenly attacked him with great
vigor. flying at his face and striking
with its long, sharp beak. 1t was SO
quick in its movements and 80 deter
mined in its attack that it was onIJ
after considerable time that Mr.. Waltz
succeeded in capturing it. He carried
IL home, but it soon died from injuries
he inflicted.
The bird is Of species unknown to
any one here. 1t is a waterfowl, hav-
ing webbed feet, which are set far back
on the body, with no rear toe The body
Is as large as wild goose. bill pointed
and long like crane, plumage drab on
the back and light gray ON the breast;
wings short, with short feathers and
would seem incapable Of sustaining ip

attach TO the body at the side.of the

THE GREATEST WEDDING.
Over Ten thousand Couples United ut the
Same Time.

Same Time.
Tho largest and most remarkable we'd
ding since the world began, says a writer
In the Cincinnati Tribune, took place at
Susa. When the great Alexander had
conquered Persia, wishing to unite the
victors and vanquished by the strongest
ties possible he decreed wedding festival
Now guess how many people he ordered to
be married. You could never do it.
Well, Alexander himself was TO marry
Statira, the daughter Of Darius; 100 of his
chief officers were to be united to ladies
from the noblest Persian and Medean fam.
lilies, and 10, 600 Of his Greek soldiers were
to marry 10000 Asiatic women-20, 2O2
people married at once.
don't see how they manag ed TO get I'D
FEAST for SO many, but they did, and for
vast multitude of guests besides. They
had the most splendid arrangements. On
plain near the city a vast pavilion was
erected on pillars. 60 feet high. 1t was
hung and spread with the richest tissues,

ornamentedit would have made your eyes

gorgeous chambers for the hundred bride.
grooms, while, for the remaining 1000
an outer court was inclosed and hung with
costly tapestry, and tables were spread
outside for the multitude
separate seat was assigned each pair,
and all were arranged in semicircle on
either hand OF the royal throne. Each
bridegroom had received golden vessel
for his libation, and when the last of these
had been announced by trumpets to the
multitudes without the brides entered the
banquet hall and took their places.
And now, don't you think each bride.
groom stood up separately and vowed,
with this ring now thee we'd" and SO
on. No, the ceremony was very simple;
the king gave his hand to Statira and
kissed her as his wife, and the other bride
grooms followed his example. That was
the way. Then came the festival, lasting
i've days, with music and feats Of jugglery
play acting and all kinds of delightful
games.
