riding last Friday, was thrown from her
horse and received several painful
bruises. ( She was found in a semi-un-
conscious state from which she did not
recover for several hours. 1t was thought
at first that she had received serious in
juries, but upon examination it was
found that she suffered no broken
bones, and the worst injury was a bruise
upon her forehead.

place this short stretch of scenery ahead
of anything they have ever seen.
While on our trip, in conversation
with tourist who had travelled the
United States over in search of grand
scenery, he remarked, "And you are
fortunate enough to live on that grand
stream, the Columb bia; shall never for
get my trip from Portland to tDalles'
over that wonderful road the o. R. & N.
Never have I beheld such mount
aims. such a river and so many
beautiful falls. fairly held my breath
when the train stopped at one (from his
description Multnomabl and allowed
few moments in which to stand in awe" "
Often do we hear such remarks, which
lead US to believe it is not all prejudice
which causes comparison to be made.
Where in Colorado can be found place
where one can behold five snow-capped
peaks from one point of view? And yet
just across the Colum bia river from the
Klickitat hills may be seen Hood, Adams.
Rainier, Jefferson, st. Helens and the
Three Sisters. standing out in bold re-
lief, seemingly defying competition.
But we have confined ourselves alone
to mountains, saying nothing of the
valleys. and to the scenery as viewed
from Eastern Oregon. Well, that is
sufficient. We cannot do justice to the
grandeur of our own section, and there
fore will not attempt to trespass further.
We can, however say without fear of
contradiction, that Oregon is destined
to be the Mecca of tourists, for her
reputation in that line is already made.
She only requires that the civil engineer

VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
A Stranger Is Found on the Track Bad
ly Hurt.

This morning as a track-walker was
walking along about three miles east of
the city he saw man pass him and
cross three mile trestle. AS he had his
hands claeped and acted queerly, he
overlook him, and, finding that he had
been injured, returned to the city with
him.
Marshal Lauer was called and took
him to the city Jail, when DIR. Hollieter
was summoned and upon examining his
wounds discovered that he had been
badly injured. A deep cash, somewhat
IN the shape of Y, was found on his
head, causing concussion of the brain.
His shoulder and back were hurt and
his hands bruised. Today he refused
nourishment, and the doctor fears for his
recovery.
1t has been difficult to find out any
thing definite concerning the accident,
as the patient is not in a condition to
give any account of it, at one time say
ing one thing and at another time an
other. His name is P. F. Feazelle, and
he claims he was on his way co Mon
tana. When first interviewed he
said he had been sand-bagged and
robbed of nine dollars; but being ques-
toned later said he had been sitting on
the track and an engine struck him.
Marshal Lauer, after making an ex-
animation of the place where he was
he was either walking the track and at
tempted to board the train, or was sit
ting on the edge of the track and was
struck by the engine. He is positive
there was no foul play.

New Feature in Bowling.

Interest Is awakening in bowling
circles as the winter months come on,
and great deal of sport in that line is
anticipated. At the club last night
something little out of the common
method of carrying on a game was
initiated. A "three- -cornered" or s'handi-
cap medal tournament" was begun, in
which any member can take part,
handicaps being allowed in accordance
with the eXpertness of the players.
These games will be played every
Friday evening, the team winning carry
ing the medal for the week. If the same
team wins the medal for three con-
secutive weeks it is theirs for "keeps.' -
The following players took part last
night: Ogden, G. Bonn and F. Bayley,
with total score OF 464; Van Norden,
De Huff and Sampson, score 513; Nolan.
Schmidt and Sinnott, score 494; Rid
dell, Houghton and Menefee, score 479

Huff and Sampson making the highest

COLORADO VS.. OREGON.
A Few COmparIsons--Orego Stnl in the
Lead Is Found to Be the
Unanimous Verdict.

Upon starting on the tour of Colorado,
the Oregon delegation determined to be
unprejudiced and make no comparisons,
that is, in public. What serious task
we had given ourselves not one of the
party imagined until we began to reach
the mountainous regions, aud then as
the saying goes, it was like "pulling eye
teeth' to keep from expressing our
thoughts, and often we found ourselves
saying, ''along the Columbia in Oregon
and the remainder of the observation
was drowned in the loudness of the
praises sang by Eastern delegations
whenever a small hill was sighted. Not
that we would call Colorado's grand
mountains hills, for are they not higher
than ours, and some of them as majestic?
None would gainsay this fact, although
from the elevation from which they are
viewed they do not appear nearly so
high, and to those accustomed to our
grand snow-capped peaks standing like
hoary- y-headed sentinels so far above US,
we are compelled to say they seem but
insignificant.
above the sea level, and Pixies Peak
towering 7,51S feet higher, loses some
of its loftiness when it is compared
with our grand old Hood and Adams,
the former lifting its snowy head about
IL ,215 feet above US. Then the many
ragged mountains in close proximity de-
| tract from its stateliness, and caused an
Oregon hayseed to quietly ask: ''Say,
which is Pixies Peak?' The scarcity
of snow also makes it less attractive
In tact this wonder of "the Switzerland
of the Vest cannot be compared to
| any of our snowy peaks. The wonder
is not SO much in the work of Nature in
this state (although she has been lavish }
but in the genius OF man, displayed to
such remarkable degree in his maneu-
verings to conquer what Mature has
made so difficult of attainment, that is,
the possibility of conveying the tourist
up the steep grades, over the winding
| curves, through tunnels, and over preci-
pIces, until not an iota OF the grandeur
of the scenery of the state is missed.
| Had Oregon such roads, over which the
tourists could ride and behold what now
is seen only by the solitary sheep-herder
or an occasional traveller on horse back,
nowhere could eight-seers find anything
to compare with tour of our state. In
deed, many who have made the trip up
the Columbia on the boat from Portland
or over the now famous o. R. & N.
