NO STEAMERS
F, RUNNING ON SNAKE
Low Stage of Water Forces the O.
K. & N. Line of Boats
to Tie Up.

Matters with the Snake river fruit
men have about come to a climax, nav
igation on the river having closed
Tuesday when the steamer Lewiston
was unable to complete her trip up
the .ivers and put back to Riparia.
where she is now tied up. The steamer
ran as far as Log Cabin rapids, just
below Wawawai, where an attempt
was made to line the craft over the
swift water, but the rope broke, and
by striking rock a small hole was
punched in the steamers hull.
w. L. LaFollette, the big fruit man
of Wawawai, now has four car loads
of fruit at the landing awaiting ship
ment, andis making a strenuous effort
to find some way to get it down the
river to the railway. The peaches,
which could not stand the delay, were
hauled 16 miles to Pullman, but the
prunes, plumbs, etc, will not suffer
if kept in the boxes for several days.
Mr.. LaFollette has opened negotia-
itons with the navigation company and
it is probable that a smaller steamer.
either the Mountain Gem, which is at
Lewiston, or the Norma, at Riparia,
will be chartered and put on the run.
These boats draw but eighteen inches
of water, and could make the river
run. If the navigation company does
not put one of the light draught boats
on, Mr.. LaF'ollette will engage one of
them to save his fruit, although the
charter rate is 500 per day.
This is the first time in the history
of the river navigation that boats
have been unable to make their regular
trips during the fruit shipping season,
the river never having been at so low
mark, and unless some way of NOV
ing the fruit crop is found within a
few days, big loss must result to the
orchardists.
"a Another year the Riparia-Lewistpn
railroad, construction of which has
now commenced, will solve the trans
portation problem for this region, and
the fortunes of the fruit grower will
not rest altogether with tickle river.

HERE'S A NEW ONE.

Here's a brand new swindle which
is being successfully worked on the
farmers of Southern Michigan. A
well dressed stranger stays all night
with the intended victim and during
the stay reports that he has lost
valuable diamond pin somewhere about
the house. After searching half
day he takes leave feeling badly about
the loss, requests the family to keep
a watch out for the pin, adding he
will pay 500 for its recovery. A few
days later bum appears on the place
and accidentally shows pin exactly
like the one they have been looking
for and casually remarks that he
found it just outside the gate. After
some dickering the pin is sold for 500
and sometimes $50. The farmer then
writes to the address left by the
stranger and asks him to bring his
hundred and get the pin. He never
comes for the old bum was in the deal
and the pin cost 20 cents.

Some bronco busters who were
trying to tame a wild cayuse on Grand
street Thursday carried the old timers
back a score of years. when such
scenes were common in Pullman, and
when a would-be bad man could ride
his horse into "Mikey's Mint" and
out again without meeting arrest.
But Thursdays wild west attraction
didn't turn out as the old time exhi-
bitions used to, and the first rider
struck the ground within that dull thud
we have read about and was under
the Doctors care for brief space of
time. A purse was soon made up for
second rider who essayed to ride the
cayuse, but the marshal put stop
to the sport. The second rider stayed
with his mount, however, till un-
horsed by the wearer Of the star.
Much fruit from the Snake river
orchards will find its way to the rail
roads here this season because of the
inability to ship it down the river.
Fruit men Thursday were Offering ten

SOUNDING THE RIVER LINE.

The announcement has been made
by Erickson & Peters, railroad con-
tractors, who are to build the Lewis
ton-Riparia branch of the O. r. & N.
that they will take all the men they
can get to work on the construction of
the line. The company has established
distributing office at Riparia and
supplies will be forwarded to points
along the line from there. Three
subcamps have already been opened
along the Snake river between Riparia
and Lewiston and it is the purpose of
the company to open more as soon as
possible. Permanent headquarters of
both the contractors and the railroad
company will be established at Almota
which is midway~On the line. Thus
far the contracting firm has about $50
horses at Riparia and more are en-
route. A trainload of wheel scraper3
and other construction equipment has
been deposited at Ripar1a and the work
on the new line viii now begin in
earnest. -
The Northern Pacific has practically
concluded its work of surveying lines
from Lewitson to- Grangeville and as
soon as a conference is had announce
ment is expected showing what route
has been selected for this line. Fol-
lowing this announcement a contract
will be Immediately let. 1t is be-
lieved here that the line will be built

tion of THE bridge has already been
let to Erickson & Peters. 1t is ex-

PRIME CAUSE OF SUICIDE.
Avoidance of Physical Labor Large
Factor in Shapinu Conduct


Throughout the literature of sui
eide one will find that the attitude
toward wage-earning and work is a
larger factor in shaping motives. The
dread of being forced to work after
period of leisure, the mad desire to
get money by trickery and gambling
devices. the scorn with which man.
ual labor is regarded by the "suc-
cessful.' is emphasized by the stories
of the newly rich become suddenly
poor, and who then deity escape into
the unknown and live on pensions and
polite beggary.
But nothing is surer than that work
is the primal condition of health and
the love of life. 1t is the do-nothing,
the fashionable. the retired" the wOm-
and freed from the necessities and du-
ties, that are the disease breeders
and the miserables. The attitude of
the fashionable doctors who minister
to this unspeakable class is not infre'
quently blameworthy. They are oft
en- encouraged by our rest cures, our
batteries and attentions.
The effort to escape from drudg-
cry is as old as civilization and as
ancient as savagery. The investiga-
tor sent to study the problem of put
ting the native African negroes to
useful work finds that they simply
will not work Those among the Ca

BUILDS ANOTHER AIRSHIP.
Baldwin Has Two Crafts Of His Own
Invention in Contest at Portland.

BALDWIN has Wo CTdItS OF tbs OWn
Invention in Contest at Portland.
Portland, Aug 21.-Visitors at the
Lewis and Clark exposition will
shortly have the unusual privilege of
seeing two airships, made by the
same inventor, contest in series of
interesting flights. Captain T. S.
Baldwin, whose California Arrow was
the only airship to make really sue
cessful flight at st. Louis and who
has charge of aernautic doings at the
big coast fair, is building new ship,
which will be ready to do flight in a
week or So The airship which he
built in Portland for use in the eX-
position contests, the Angelus, has
made several flights. On the occasion
of the first flight, strong wind blew
the machine several miles out of her
course, and the second was unsuccess-
full owing to breakdown of the ma
chinery. She proved readily steer
able, however, except in stiff wind
The new ship Baldwin is building,
which probably will be called The
Nina, is being constructed on lines
similar to those of the Angelus and
the Arrow, but it will be considerably
smaller than the ship which the in.
ventor has been using this season.
The Angelus holds 10000 feet of gas
and has fifty-foot carriage, and tn :
Nina will hold only 5000 feet of gas,
and will be fitted with twenty.four
foot car. 1t is thought that perhaps
the smaller gas bag, offering less re.
sistance to the wind. will enable the
ship to navigate with less interfer-
ence from adverse air currents.
Besides the two Baldwin airships,
there is third machine at the ex.
position which, while as yet of unes-
tablished merit, is expected to do
things. 1t is known as the Gelatin, is
the invention of Charles B. Knox, a
wealthy manufacturer of Syracuse, N
Y. and is manned by George L. Tom.
linson. Tomlinson thinks that the
Gelatin will prove airworthy, and peo-
pie who have seen the ship agree with
him. The Gelatin is built somewhat
