Field Of Operations Near the RiVer-Logs
Are Drawn over Wood Roads by Trac-
tlon Engines.
The Connecticut River Lumber COM
pany which has annually run a large
quantity of logs down the river to points
below here is this year cutting about the
average amount, so million feet Until
this year the company has cut in the
territory tributary to the Connecticut
lakes, but this winter has come down the
river nearly so miles and is cutting on
small streams in the towns of Stratford
and Colebrook in New Hampshire and
Guildhall and Maidstone in Vermont
An innovation in the method of hand
ling the logs has been made this year
and with excellent results. Two power
full traction engines of peculiar make
are doing the work of about 80 horses.
These engines are capable of running
over the common roads of the locality,
and upon wood roads of the better quail
ty. They readily go up and down a con-
siderable grade, the common hills being
no obstacle. They win each draw from
IL to Is common sleds coupled together,
and loaded with 10000 to $4,000 feet Of
logs They move slowly, about the pace
of an OK team, and they are used over
reaches of from to ~ miles to good
advantage.
The boilers are upright, and the power
rs applied 10 Wnat corresponds with the
fly wheel of a horse power, with the
tagging upon the ground and snow. Large
spikes are in the different lags that sink
into the snow and in that way prevent
slipping The whole device is ingenius
and is making a decided economy
in the expense of hauling long dis
tances. Each train is handled by
four men, an engineer, fireman, and
two trainmen. The tagging is long much
more than the width of the sleds, so they
are not likely to tip over, even upon rough
ground, but this occurs once in a while.

Fire Escapes on opera House and High
School Building.

A very complete system of fire escapes
has been placed by the town upon the
opera house and high school building dur
ing the past few weeks. Those placed
upon the opera house provide egress from
both the gallery and floor of the audi
torium upon both the north and south
sides of the building. They are built of
steel and of pretty design. There has
already occurred a difficulty with those
upon the opera house, on both sides,
owing to the dripping of water from the
caves of the building, striking about in
the centre of the whole length of both
flights, and at times they have been
weighted with tons of ice. Upon the
south side of the building an immense
icicle weighing 200 or 300 pounds fell
recently, and striking one flight of the
stairs broke them down and caused con-
siderable loss. They have not been put
back and it is thought it may be neces-
sary to erect a roof over all to protect
them from similar accidents and render
them more safe when icy.

THIEF FALLS INTO TRAP.

SEATTLE, April 7.-Rhodella Nc
Lead, who the police declare has been
habitual petty thief for years, was
locked up in the city Jail because she
fell into the clever trap laid for her by

police were notified Saturday and Clerk
Bannick was put on the case Monday.
ing attorney, he decided to place a
purse upon the dining room table in the
associations rooms and see if the pris-
oner. who was servant of the asso-
cations would steal it.
A purse was bought and four marked
pieces of money were placed in it, to-
gether with 10-cent necktie The
coins were all marked in such a way
that there could be no, mistake in
lueHlIyiiS lHeH. 1He purse WAS IcIl
on the table at time wnen the woman
was regularly passing through the
room preparing meals. The minute
she saw the purse she snatched it from
the table and hurried through the nall
to the lavatory. There she fastened
a 81 bill in the hem of her skirt. She
threw away the purse and concealed
the remainder of the money. Bannick
placed her under arrest before she
could leave the house. The marked
money was taken from her at the police
station.

thorities say this morning that some
who have seen the body knew the man
IN life, but refuse to say anything for
fear they will meet a similar fate. A

Special to Evening Statesman.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April T.
Newspaper reports to the effect that
the government proposes to begin work
on the Yakima irrigation project before
it begins the Palouse work are not
true. The statement was made this
morning at the office of the chief of the
reclamation service of the geological
survey to the effect that a meeting of
the board of engineers of the reclama-
tion service is to be held on the 10th
inst, at which time it is probable tnat
f,nal action on the Palouse ditch will
he taken. AS a matter of fact the
Yakima project is not nearly as far
advanced or as feasible as that one in
Franklin county. 1t is also true that
the O. r. & NJ company mas refused
to make any concessions to the gov
ernment. but nevertheless this does not
moan the abandonment of the project
as there are other interests which
have signified a willingness to make up
tho difference. The government has
500 oOo. 900 in it's irrigation fund and
Washington has produced more already
than it's proportionate share OF TINS
sum.

MATT CASWELL MET WITH
FATAL ACCIDENT AT STAR
BUCK LAST NIGHT.
Engaged in Shooting Coal Car at Time
Car Got Beyond Control and
Dashed Into Box Cars.

While engaged in shooting coal car
off the dump at Starbuck last night,
Matt Caswell, a yard man, was fatally
injured and Jesse Carnagie, a colored
helper, was painfully hurt about the
head and shoulders. The men finished
unloading at midnight and started the
car down the incline when it got be-
yond their control and dashed into
string of box cars at the bottom.
Casweli was hurled in front of the
car as it rebounded up the incline
short ways. Almost unconscious from
the shock he was unable to crawl off
the track and the returning car passed
over him, crushing in mis- abdomen In
frightfuf manner. Carnagie was hurled
against a box car and lay unconscious
for an nour. Despite his terrible in
juries Caswell crawled off the track
where he was found by some of the
railroad men who were attracted by
mis- cries, nearly two hours afterward.
A special was hurriendly made up and
the men brought to st. Mary's hos
pital Caswell died soon after his In
juries were attended to. The body
was removed to the Smith & Mac

had Just started the car down the in
cline when something seemed to give

through the air against a car. That
was the last he remembered until ne
