AN UNSATISFACTORY SHOWING.
Torpedo Beats II Have q Record for
Breaking Down.

The result Of = thorough examination
of the naval TORPEDO boats is unsatisfae-
tory, only one OF the little craft having a
record OF escaping breakdowns. The
faults developed pertained mostly to the
machinery and while not serious. collect
lively. they are understood to have influ-
enced the naval inspection board which
has conducted these examinations to rec
ommend a heavier construction OF ma
chinery, even at the cost of loss OF
speed. The experts have reached q con-
clusion that 1t Is better to have a twenty
five-knot boat which can be depended
upon to make that speed at all times and
in all weather than to try to secure q
thirty-knot boat liable to breakdowns at
any time and so tender that she cannot
keep the sea in bad weather.

BAKER CITY WOMAN
FIRST FOUND GOLD

IOeneral Fremont, who at once and
without hesitation couDseled great
secretivsness. and through bis in.
fiuence the news OF discovery Of what
those Informed all beiievd to be gold
WIS hushed up.
! On the further advice OF Fremont.
I one, DR.. Gildea, was entrusted with
the care Of the yellow metal aud
sent to Monterey to obtain an assay
which would determine its real
value. 0ildea started on his
journey. but disappeared, and It IL
believed that he WAN murdered. but
that the murder had nothing to
do with his mission to Monterey.
The mater then rested until January
"a. '48 when Captain Sutter made the
hnd which has made his name
household word the world over.
The motive of Fremont In sup
pressing the news Of the discovery
should be appreciated at Its full
value and for IL effects. Fremont
knew perfectly we'll that if full pub
iioity WAS given to the discovery,
all his long laid and careful plans
for tho annexation Of California
might be completely upset by the
desperation with which the Spanish
and Mexican influence would prob
ably resist the movement, which at
that time showed signs Of being con-
summated.
The Bonneys In the spring Of ls46
came to Oregon aud lived for two
years In Marion county. They then
went to California for u year aud
engaged In mining, but without any
particular success, and then returned
to Oregon. Mrs. Hibler IL u widow
aud has lived nearly all her life In
Oregon, and IL now seventy one
years Of age.
