AMAZED AT BIG TREES.
Prominent LumbeTmen Delighted With
Oregon.

Portland, June 2O.-The Nebraska
Lumbermen's association excursion 70
Portland has proved one Of the most
successful of all the exposition excuf'
sions. There are more than 200 Of the
Nebraskans, and they have been i'm
mensely interested in what they have
seen in Oregon's lumber mills and At
the exposition grounds. They will re-
turn TO Nebraska and sell more Oregon
lumber than ever before.
They departed in their special tram
at 1880 yesterday afternoon for souta'
ern Oregon and California, after hay
ing spent the morning visiting local
sawmills and seeing the exposition.
The women Of the Nebraska society in
Oregon entertained the women Of the
visiting party at the fair grounds dur
ing the morning. There was a fascina'
tion for all the Nebraskans in the for
estry building. in their " state they
are not accustomed 10 seeing trees ex'
cepting a few willows and eottonwoods
that grow along the streams, and some
shade trees that have been planted
about their dooryards, and so the i'm
mense logs in the forestry building
were a revelation TO them. They have
been constantly entertained during
their Portland visit by committees Of
local lumbermen.
On their way south they will visit
the mills Of the Booth-Kelley company
at Eugene, and win stop at Medford
to see the plant Of tha Iowa Box com
pany. They will inspect the redwood
country in California, and return
east via Salt Lake City and Denver.
The rail rate on lumber from Port
land to Minneapolis and ST. Paul is 40
cents per 100 pounds, while to Omaha
il is so cents. Nebraska lumbermen
saw this is unjust discrimination
against their territory, and will make

guarding Of the treasure.
just at that time Black Hawk was
very active and aggressive and there
was serious possibility that the little
garrison might be forced to evacuate
Fort Mckay and fall back. Accord
ingly, Colonel Taylor decided the
money must be hidden outside the
stockade. He called for volunteers
for special service and selected four
men, headed by a sergeant named
Mercierre. These he gave a sack Of
gold each and sent them at night 20
bury it and bring back a careful report
so that others might be able later to
find it.
That very night there was a deter.
mined attack by Indians on the little
post. The sentries were driven in and
some Of them were killed. For DAYS
the fighting went on before the sol.
diers were able at last to drive away
the braves. Meantime nothing had
been heard Of the four men with the
bags Of gold.
As soon as the Indians were dis.
persed and it was safe to ventue out
and reconnoitre the bodies Of the
four dead soldiers were found at a
considerable distance from the fort, all
scalped and horribly mutilated. There
was no trace Of the gold, and none was
ever found. Two days later a soldier
found a bit Of paper near one of the
dead bodies giving an incomplete,
hastily cribbled explanation that the
gold had been buried on a certain
bluff. But the description was incom.
plete and the most careful search
failed to locate it. No evidence was
ever found that the coin fell into the
hands Of the Indians, and IL is be.
lieved to be resting yet in its original
hiding place-so well hidden that even
its owners have never been able TO fud
it. Search is carried on in a desultory
way every eason and IL will proba.

AMONG THE "HEAD HUNTERS.
ROsoburg Boy in the widest Region
in the Philippines.

In the Philippines.
Stanley l.. Kidder, the well known
Roseburg boy who is in the United
states mail service in the Philippines.
is now engaged In establishing overland
post routes on the island Of Negroes
a y the Roscburg Review. His salary
has been raised to $4,000 a year, with
expenses, but that amount is nothing
compared to the risk entailed in per
forming his duties. He has been
obliged TO traverse the districts inhab-
itod by the dreaded "head hunters, -
a venture 30 hazardous that out Of
the whole force Of white men In the
mail service on the islands, Stanley was
the only one who offered TO undertake
the journey.
In a letter written to one Of his
friends in this city, Stanley states that
he has a "tough job" lie is obliged
to be in the saddle day after day for
weeks at a time, riding over isolated
mountain trails and fording PREACHER
Gus rivers. His diet nj times consists
Of rice and fish, non too clearly
served, he says, and bananas. During
one Of his journeys he witnessed the
hanging of a native, who, with two 9th
ers, murdered a white traveller on one
Of the mountain highways.
The natives in the far interior dc
not understand the objects Of the pos
tai system, writes Stanley, and they
do not want 10.
Stanley expects to return home Il
Roseburg next spring to spend vaea
ton.
