Eagle Kills . Deer j..

Lewis Breyer, employed in a lum-
Der camp north of Arbor Vitae, Wis,
witnessed the strange spectacle of an
eagle killing a deer recently. The great
bird swooped down on the gentle deni-
zen of the forest and with one stroke
of its talons cut the deer's jugular
vein, and the deer soon bled to death.
The eagle endeavored to carry on its
victim, but the carcass was too heavy.
and after dragging it about rod left
and soon returned with two more, and
the three devoured about half of the
deer.

the behavior of the police, said: Il am
reminded of the story of the police

said the commissioner, I've adver-

MINING NEAR AKRON.
Work Being Pushed at Fremonts Butte
District

The correspondent of the Rocky
Mountain News writing from Akron,
Colorado. says:
The machinery for treating the gold
deposits in Fremont's Butte mining
district will be in place and will make
a run of 100 tons of the alluvial de-
posits on Saturday, April 22nd.
The syndicate of English capitalists
has been pushing the work since the
weather has been suitable for working
in the camp. The lumber for erecting
a building for the machinery has been
ordered and the carpenters engaged to
complete the building in time for com
mencing operations by the last of the
present month.
As soon as the machine now on the
ground begins the treatment of the ore
an artesian well will be sunk and ar
rangcments made for erecting the large
plant of 1000 tons daily capacity.
The experiments so far conducted es-
tablish beyond dispute that the depos-
its are to be found in about equal val
ues in every part of the district, which
extends for several miles in each di-
rection from the town site, which is
located adjoining the claim where OPP
erations will be commenced next Sat
urday.
This will be the first machine of this
kind ever operated in America, al
though in Africa and Australia il is the
only process that will treat low grade
deposits with a margin of profit. Sim
pie in its mechanism, massive in ap-
pearance, but a process that has treat
ed deposits running only an average
of S1.5O ton and yielded to its own
ers a profit of 81 for every ton treated.
Every one desiring to see for them
selves the process which has come to
treat a grade of ore heretofore beyond
the reach of our concentrating and
amalgamating machinery may see the
practical test next Saturday at Ere
monts Butte mining district.

IN MEMORY OF INDIAN ALBERT
Who was Familiar Character to DalIes
Residents.

Died-On the Simcoe Reservation,
last winter, Albert Brown-an aged
Klickitat. Many of the residents of our
town will remem Der him, and of these
some will give him kind thought, as of
a more than usually interesting char
acter.
In that long procession which marks
the passing of his race, he was one that
to the student of history or psychology
would give points of valuable study.
His age could not be accurately ascer-
tanned. For several years he has been
over 80, without question. In 1885, he
was pupil OF the pioneer missionary
and Indian teacher, Jason Lee, and
there received bias that always made
1t was curious TO see how faithfully his
memory treasured even the words of in
stI tIuction. All the smoke and savagery
of Wigwam life could not oblIterate them.
He seemed to have taken them as words
from his mother, into his very heart of
hearts, AMI his whole life was changed
thereby. He was always on the side of
the whites. His superior intelligence
and penetration told him that the
Boston men," were the coming men.
1t was policy on his part, therefore, to
make friends with the victors. But any
one who knew Albert well would know
there WAS kindness and true friendli-
meas in his ieart toward those to whom
he looked as his supeIiors and whose
teachings his own people must accept
and follow if they would not be swept
from earth. In his early manhood he
rescued many white wanderer, trap
per or explorer, shared with him the
supplies of his wigwam, and gave him
the use Of his ''cuitan" to set him on his
way.
In 1855, Albert was with the troops
under General Joseph Lane in the
Rogue river war, and shared in the
glory of the conqueror-now, general
and Indian scout are both gone at the
call OF the greater cong ueror.
He was very happy during his resi-
| dtnce in Indis town across Mill cret k,
the last year Of his life. He felt that be
was "among his friends" and was
| thoroughly grateful for kindness shown
him. he took great interest in hearing
OF the Cuban war and asking questions
about it. "What colored men are fight.

Adolph Randolph, of this city, has
invented, and is having patented a
new water faucet, which promises to
come into extensive use. The faucet
works by check valve, which is set
i'll operation by pressing BUTTON
which, as soon as released, immediate-
ly shuts itself, the stronger the pres
sure of water against it the tighter it
closes, making leakage impossible. 1t
is designed principally for inside use,
and will be put OH the market as
soon as the patent is received, which
will be about the 10Th. Mr. Randolph
exhibited tie faucet and gave it test
this morning before Chief Hanley,
who said it was a very handy device
and seemed much pleased with it's
working. The mechanism is simple
and it can be put on the market at a
reasonable professionally Call.

is needed is training and equipment.
We must not be content with produc-
ton of the raw material only, in which
there is but little or no profit; we must
band ourselves together, take adyan-
tage of our opportunities, and strike
for the highest and best possibilities
within our reach. Some merchants
contend that if the farmers Of the
South begin to produce their own
wheat, corn, pork and cattle, that
the west, which is now SO largely en-
gagged supplying us with those neces-
sary food supplies, must suffer in pro-
portion to the amount which we pro-
duce. They also contend that if the
farmer makes his farm self-Sustain-
ing the credit business will be broken
up and the merchants intel ests made
to suffer correspondingly.
A Narrow Minded VieW.-ThIS is a
very narrow minded view to take OF
the situation. In the first place we
are under no contract or obligation to
keep up the western people, our first
duty is to our families, and secondly
to our State. What we want is uni
versal independence and prosperity,
not extensive dependence and depreS-
sion. In the second place if the farm
Ell, by reason of better farming meth
DDS can become self-sustaining and
check the heavy purchase OF supplies
at time prices, it will enable him to
buy for cash and to purchase luXuries
for the pleasure of his family rather
than a limited supply Of necessaries
at longtime prices. The merchant is
able to do a safe business on a strictly
cash basis, and the sale of articles
aside from heavy staple goods will
always command prices i'll which
there is a fair margin of profits. 1t is
an absurdity to say that prosperity
among the farming classes would in
jure any legitimate line of business.
Agriculture is the true basis of our
prosperity; if the farmer prOspers
every other avOcatiOn in life will also
prosper We cannot afford to keep
up one class at the expense of another.
The farmers of our country have
borne the brunt of such a burden
long enough, and the time has come
when a change for the better must be
inaugurated. Let us all pull together
for one common purpose, having in
view the general upbuilding of the ma
terial condition of all classes and the
near future will begin to unfold better
and brighter prospects. G. III. Jordan,
in Atlanta Journal.
