office hours. he set about his task.
Rising before daybreak, Boschke
would ride away on horseback into
the field where he maintained sur
veylng party at his own expense to
assist him in his work. Here he
would work until the time to return
to his office. His frequent journeys
in and out of Washington. riding at
full speed, soon earned him the sobri-
quet Of the Flying Dutchman."
The map was Just completed as the
first gun was turned on Fort Sum-
ter.
Boschke comes from a family OF
engineers who for generations have
been identified with all the great
wars of Europe. He was born in
Poland in 1928. His mother was the
Countess Drumbosky. His father act
ed as the great Napoleon's chief en-
gineer, drawing the plans of the for
tifications Of Dantslz and other de-
fences that have conspicuous place
in the history of France.
Since his residence in America,
Boeschke has drawn and superintend-
ed the execution of the plans Of
many of the great harboE on the At
lantic as well as the Pacific coast.
Within the last few years. however.
he has sunk into obscurity, an OBJ
scurity that has been accompanied
with privation and misery
Having in mind the necessity of an
improved dredge which would solve
the problem of digging of great ca
nails. Boschke has shut himself away
from the world to devote all OF his
time to the planning Of such a dredge.
After years OF labor self denial and
bitter disappointment, success has at
last come to him, but only when the
fruits of his toll have been all but
| taken from him by money sharks who
have been advancing him from time
to time at exorbitant interest the
necessary funds for the completion
of his work.
| The dredge, the plans of which
he has been working on, is to be
used in the digging of the canal
| across Cape Cod. Boschke made in
vestigations for the Cape Cod canal
; i'm 1863 but the dredges then in ex-
istence were not suitable for the
work, and it is only after years of la
Dor that the proper one has been
planned and built.
The new dredge will also be used
by the government in the digging OF
the Panama canal.

troops may be called into the Yakima

lands on the Yakima reservation, ac-
cording to special dispatch to the

Superintendent Jay Lynch OF the

that he will pay no attention to the

companies to restrain the interior de-
partmeut from taking water from the
Yakima river to irrigate reservation
lands.
The Governments bitches have 50

AN INCENDIARY TRUST.
Eugene Bossc says Linen Manufact
urcrS Burned His FAX Mill.


The fire which destroyed the flax
and flax mill of Eugene Bosse east
OF the asylum Monday night was
started by a hired agent ot the linen
trust. says the Salem Statesman.
This is the opinion of Mr.. Bosse.
who returned from Chehalis last
night, and is also the opinion of Mrs.
w. y. Lord. who had some expert
ence with the trust while taking a
leading part in the work OF the Ore
gon Woman's Flax Fibre Association
a number of years ago,
The circumstances which Mrs. Lord
relates make very convincing story,
and the conclusion she draws is APP
parently the only reasonable one. Mr.,
Bosse was SO broken up over his loss
that he could not discuss his probable
future. but he did not hesitate to de-
clare his opinion that the fire was
set by man employed by eastern
manufacturers who do not want the
linen industry established in the Will
lamette valley.
Mr.. Bosse was at Chehalis when his
mill and flax burned but came home
yesterday, when informed of his loss.

Perhaps the most remarkable dwarf
on record was Sir Jeffrey Hudson, the
Little fellow whom Scott introduces in
'Peveril Of tie Peak" He was born
in Rutlandshire, England. In 1919
When eight years Of age he was pre-
sented by the Duke Of buckingham 10
Queen Henrietta in Il cold pie. He aft.
erward became attached TO the court Of
Charles |. At one Of the court masks
the kings porter, a man of gigantic
size who used to torment the little
dwarf, pulled from one pocket loaf
of bread and from the other Jeffrey,
much 10 the surprise and amusement
of the company present. Jeffrey was
at this time only eighteen inches In
height.
He remained AT this stature until he
was thirty years OF age, after which
a curious exception to the laws OF
growth took place, since Jeffrey rapid
ly grew to be three feet nine inches 10
height, whereas most men do not grow
quarter Of an inch after the age OF
thirty. This dwarf had an enormous
head and very large hands and feet
otherwise his proportions were sym
metrical, and his face was considered

SWALLOWED EYEGLASSES.
Appetite Developed by
Common Rat.

The following true story which is
said to have been told by Postmaster
Lot Livermore. shows to what extent
rats sometimes go when undisturbed,
and is also most remarkable from a
astronomical standpoint.
According to the tale as recited by
the friends of the postmaster, the
Livermore residence has been badly
afflicted by a colony Of rats since Mrs
Livermore has been away to the coast.
Knowing that his wife would soon re-
turn and that he would be held re
sponsible for his care of the house,
Mr.. Livermore began to take meas
ures a short time ago to catch the
rats. Accordingly he set steel trap
beside an open jar Of fruit in hopes
fcatching a rat and of making an
example of him. Shortly after he had
prepared trap he noticed this eye
glasses were missing, and he searched
the entire house and the postoffice as
well in the hopes of finding them, but
all I'm vain. However, the mystery
was solved the next day. When he
looked at the rat trap he found that
he had caught large one and there
was something in the animals ap-
pearance which seemed peculiar, so
he proceeded 10 dissect the animal.
Great was his surprise when he found
his missing glasses, they having evi-
IDENTIFY been swallowed by the rat
through mistake while the animal was
eating on the jar of fruit

PEST DESTROYS OYSTERS.
TcrcslO. AN Enemy TO Oysters. Invad-
ing the Washington Beds.

/ Hwaco Aug. 24.-The oyster beds
in Willapa harbor and Shoalwater
/ bay are threatened with destruction
/ by teredo oyster men have discov-
/ cred that the pests exist in alarming
numbers and that they are fast max
! ing inroads not only on the matured
product. but on the young growth as
well.
Many attribute the present invasion
! of the beds by the teredo to the alb
sence of fresh water in the bay,
caused by the lack of freshets in the
streams that feed it. but the majority
believe that teredo seed has been
shipped in with eastern oyster seed.
Bishop Doane an expert in western
| oyster culture, arrived at the bay yes
| terday and will endeavor to ascertain
/ the exact extent of the injury thus far
| inflicted upon the beds. He is a
! heavy stakeholder in the Morgan Oys-
ter company, which has large holdings
| on Shoalwater bay.
Mr.. Doane has had an experience
with the teredo on the company's
California beds, and he does not relish
repetition. There, he says, it be-
came necessary to hire Japanese to
gather the teredo spat. the same as
oyster seed is gathered, in order to
effectually check the ravages of the
pest. The greatest vigilance has since
been necessary, in order to keep them
in subjeCtion.
The tercdo multiplies rapidly and
the number of oysters which the worm
will destroy. Mr.. Doane says, is little
short OF marvellous. Fastening on the
oysters she'll the teredo bores hole
through the oysters side. inflicting a
mortal wound to which the victim
soon succumbs,

OBSCURE ENGINEER SAVED WASHINGTON

The man whose genius and honesty
saved Washington from falling into
the hands of the COnfederacy during
the Civil war leads a lonely, solitary
existence in Piedmont, few miles
from San Francisco, forgotten and
neglected by the nation he has served
so well, says San Francisco dis
patch.
When the war of the rebellion
broke out it became known to Gen
eral Wise, who was then governor
of Virginia that A. A. Boschke, an
engineer, was the only person pos
sessing a typographical map Of the
District of Columbia.
Knowing the value of such a map,
Wise sent messenger to Washing
ton with bag of gold to the amount
of $4,000 in the hope of bribing
Boschke to give up the map. Mar
tial law had been declared in the
district, however, and General Scott,
hearing of the messengers arrival,
caused his arrest. A telegram was
then sent to Boschke by Scott ask
ing where the map could be found.
On Boschke's reply that it was in
the hands of the printers. a squad OF
soldiers was sent to seize the map
and two colored plates that had been
made of it.
The finding of such map by the
north was source of great relief
to those having the responsibility OF
the defense Of the capital, as there
was not in existence at the time even

to the district

Boschke had conceived the idea o.

finished his work as chief engineer
of New York harbor. In lookinl
over the history Of the country h'

Washington had been attacked by tn

SPLINTER IN HIS EYEBALL
Remarkable Experience of Lane
County Man.

Three years ago a piece of steel
from a wedge penetrated the right
eyeball of II. 5. Banta, who resides
at Mabel, in the Mohawk valley. in
Lane county. II caused no particular
pain or annoyance. and the incident
was almost forgotten until about a
week ago. when the splinter began to
work out and the edge scratched the
eyelid, causing considerable annoy
ance. Mr.. Banta went to Eugene this
week to consult physician. The
piece of steel was removed and it was
found to be nearly half an inch long
by quarter of an inch wide. 1t is
considered remarkable that the piece
of metal imbedde1 in the eyeball
caused no pain nor trouble during the
