WinIock MN Rnrnnh

Chehalis' Wash. Aug. 9.-Fire at
Winloek last evening destroyed the
entire sawmill plant of the Wlnlock
Lumber Company, entalling an esti-
mated loss OF 100000. The fire be.
gan about $50 o'clock. when the
mill crew had gone home, starting in
the boiler room. Despite the fact
that this mill was one of the best.
equipped in the entire northwest
with hre apparatus, and had what
was regarded as the best kind OF
water protection, the flames swept n
away with people powerless TO stay
them.

Men of Dolphin Praised.

Washington, d. c., Aug. 9.-Sec-
retary Bonoparte has written letter
to Lieut.. Commander Edgar, of the
Dolphin, complimenting the officers
and crew of that vessel on their sue
cess in target practice. The secre-
tary said: Il was much gratified to
learn that the United States steam
ship Dolphin had attained the great
est final merit of any vessel of her
class in the target practice of 1906.
The success of our navy in meeting
the needs and fulfilling the hopes of
the nation, whenever called upon for
active duty, will depend in large
measure on the faithful and intelli-
gent use made by it's officers and men
of the time of peace, and therefore of
preparation, which may be previous
ly accorded them. 1t is a source of
especial saticfaction to me to find
that the officers and men of a vessel
particularly identified, as is the Dol
phin, with the secretary of the navy
recognize and act upon this truth.

municate to your command, in such

The Hartman lines have had to be
reconstructed.
II can be said in justification OF
delay in constructing new lines that
the Hartman main lines and equip
ment can hardly carry the trafic
they have. Construction OF feeders
would congest them terribly.
II will be better TO wait patiently
for the reconstruction Of the old
Southern Pacific system in Oregon.
The country has outgrown It. The
new roadbed. the new rolling stock
are indispensable.
The people OF Oregon have treated
the Hartman system fairly and lib
orally. There is no disposition here
in Oregon but fair play. But II Is
because our people are satisfied that
they VIII get some new lines con

The promises OF the Hartman
managers TO construct a line 10 Coos
Bay and from Natron to Ontario and
into the Klamath county ARE MADE

Let us not mar this manifest OF

A Scene in Venice. .


A striking and original sight was wit
messed in Venice recently. when the chill
dren-boys and girls alike-of the infant
schools were gathered together to the num-
Der OF $500 to sing on the steps OF the
Church of the Salute. The idea OF this form
OF chorus singing In the open air sprang
from the Maestro Wolf-Farrarl the director
OF the Musical Liceo in Venice and was
of the great church, which was built as
a thank offering for the cessation Of the
plaques in the seventeenth century, were
ranged the boys and girls. in holiday at
tire. the girls all being massed against the
building. the boys being placed beneath
them. The scene was wonderfully beau
tiful. The hour chosen was p. m. when
the sun was sloping to the west. and
every dome. tower and steeple was touched
and gilded with his departing rays, while
on the square Of the Salute the little fig
ures Of the children formed vivid patches
of color against the gray walls of stone
which formed the background
The youthful choristers, who sang in
unison, were accompanied by the town
band. and the hymn of four verses which
they sang was Thanksgiving to the Fa-
Their of Heaven, who maketh His sun to
rise, His rain to fall on all alike in lavish,
full abundance. The words were written
for the occasion by Signora Maria Pezze-
Pascolato, whose elegy on the fall of the
of modern Italy's real poets, and the music
was an adaptation of an old Sicilian
sea song. The hymn was admirably rem
dered: the blending of the voices was
first rate. while the attention given to time
tune. light and shade was as good as could
be desired.
The scene above and around the church
was extraordinary, and such can be had
only In Venice. Balconies. roofs and pin
nacles were all turned to account, some of
the positions looking horribly dangerous
anw making many a safer-placed spectator
shudder. On the Grand Canal all traffic
was stopped. and boats, barges and gon-
dolas were wedged together in such close
proximity as to offer an easy passage to
any who chose to step from boat to
boat over the hidden waters Of Venices
chief highway. The success Of this open
air concert reflects the greatest credit on
all concerned. and will. we trust; be re-
peated as often as possible.

The Harvest of Death. p
From the Chicago Tribune

from the Chicago Tribune.
A great battle or an unexpected calamity
startles every one when the number of
dead and dying is proclaimed. Little notice
is taken Of daily accidents in which only
one or two persons lose their lives, although
the years aggregate is large 1t has been
said that more people die in a year froni
accidents caused by runaway horses than
steamship thrills the world, while the daily
toll on land goes unnoted.
Every reader Of the daily paper is forced
to notice the number of drownings occur
ring during a summer season. A loss here
and q loss there seems of comparatively
small moment but when a tabulation shows
400 deaths from this one cause alone during
the last four months, the figures are appall-
ing. A recent report of the coroner OF
Cook county indicated that the number of
casualties from street-car accidents during
his term of office would total the number of
people who were lost in dreadful theater
holocaust.
What is more depressing about 1t all Is
that In many instances death was utterly
needless The carelessness of transporta-
ton companies or their employees. the reck-
lessness or foolhardiness OF individuals the
inattention to simple rules for insuring
safety, the attempting OF feats beyond ones
real strength, the getting into dangerous
places on the water without any knowledge
of swimming-all of these causes and others
like them have had their part in a summer
harvest of human life. brought to the atten-
ton even of the casual reader every living
day.
