creek, and is about two miles from the base
of Tyee mountain which is the highest
point south of ST. Marys peak, in Benton
county. incidentally, it may be remarked
that not less than nine snow-clad submits
and the mountains around Crater lake can
be seen from this place of observation. The
bridge was discovered by Charles Magee of
California. The arch is almost perfect and
from base to base is ninety feet wide. with
remarkably regular perpendicular walls the
whole looking as If chiseled by the hands OF
a skilled giant The approaches on the top
are 900 feet from one side to the other,
while inside, from base to top of the bridge,
is ninety feet; from top Of arch to top OF
bridge, thirty feet. On the bridge are all
kinds of growths-oak maple, tr, cedar,
laurel, balm Of gilead and a great variety
| of shrubs, grasses and flowers. Inside it is
clear of all growths. so its proportions can
be well observed. There are very large
trees around, and the scenery is wild and
weird. 1t is beautiful place for camping,
having pure air and water. fish and game.

There are publishers who print copies
for composers for a cash consideration
Publishers of this kind have no interest

many such instances. Not long ago the
hospital received a manuscript from a we'll

day we got word that he has had two
offers for the manuscript.
MANY persons are Just crazy to see their
names as authors and composers on the

woman in New York who paid $500 to a
song writer to write a song for her and
give her all the credit She distributed
copies of the song among her friends and

the work, we do not care."-New York Sun.

Of the herd for water.
II is so with the Order OF the Carabao.
When the members, few or many, are as
sembled, and engaged in whatever talk or
business, at the agreed thirst signal all else
IS laid aside until every Carabao has tho
wherewithal to quench his thirst
It is only in rare instances that water is
the fluid chosen for this purpose. The
haste and unanimity with which the assem-
bled members OF the order break off In the
midst of whatever business or pleasure
may engage them 10 respond 20 the thirst

amazement of the casual stranger
The Distinguishing mark of the order is
the short, slender black stick. The stick is
made OF a piece of the water bunalo's
horn. Upon the end of the little silver head
appears the enjoy OF the animal itself, and
on the side of the head arc engraved the

HOSPITAL FOR CRIPPLED SONGS
Remarkable Cures Effected by Sur

Music.

In the heart Of Musical Row." which lies
between Twenty-eighth and Forty-second
streets, Broadway and Seventh avenue,
New York, there is a song hospital. To
this place sick and dilapidated songs are
daily sent for treatment Some OF them
survive and become useful to society, while
others die quickly.
The treatment is simple. Songs that
require melodies to At the words and words
TO mt the melody are placed In the hands
Of capable doctors These doctors do their
work well and in many instances they
receive high pay for their services.
Attracted by the large profits realized
from the sales Of popular songs. all sorts
and conditions OF persons have taken to
writing songs in the last few years Every
| publisher OF note receives manuscripts
daily from ambitious composers all over
the country
Most OF them are OF little account. once
in while a good song is discovered, but
almost invariably It needs fixing up. The
\ publisher has not always the time 70 do
this, so he sends the song to the hospital
He pays so much for the treatment and IL
is returned to him in proper form.
! The song hospital is a branch OF a well
known publishing house Publishers OF
music throughout the country send their
songs to it. The manager Of the hospital

establishment the other day.

ORDER OF THE CARABAo
Enemies of Thirst in Army and Navy
in the Philippines Mount the
water Wagon.

II you happen to see an oficer Of the
army or the navy carrying a short slender
black stick with a silver head, you may
know that he is a Cardiac.
Now. the carabao is the water buffalo OF
the orient. and especially Of the Philip
pines The animal is so important In the
islands that when some American officers
who had seen service in the Philippines
were casting about for a-ndme suitable to
an order formed among themselves they hit
upon this Spanish name Of the water buff
falo
SO the order Of the Carabao is plain Eng
fish for society Of the water buffalo.
This society was formed not gravely, but
IN sport. All the officers have absard and
high sounding titles in a sort Of bastard
Spanish, and the doings OF the society are
wholly frivolous.
In one particular the order Of the Cara
bao initiates it's namesake. The water buff
falo Is upon all ordinary occasions docile
and gentle. but when the madness OF thirst
SEXES the beast which it does very fire.
